    摘要: A keysafe includes a housing, a door, a locking mechanism, a wireless communications interface, and an inhibitor system. The housing defines an internal compartment structured to receive a key fob for a vehicle. The door is positioned to enclose the internal compartment. The locking mechanism is positioned to selectively lock the door to prevent access to the internal compartment. The wireless communications interface is configured to facilitate wireless communication with an external device. The inhibitor system includes a coil disposed around the internal compartment, a battery disposed within the housing and coupled to the coil, and a controller. The controller is configured to energize the coil with the battery to inhibit communication between the key fob and the vehicle, receive a deactivation signal from the external device via the wireless communications interface, and de-energize the coil in response to receiving the deactivation signal to permit the communication.

    摘要: An electronic locking device includes an electronically controllable locking mechanism, a memory, a wireless transceiver configured to communicate wirelessly with a user device to receive an encrypted package containing a biometric template corresponding to an authorized user, and a processor. The processor is configured to decrypt the encrypted package and store the biometric template in the memory, receive a biometric input corresponding to a user attempting to access the electronic locking device, determine if the biometric input matches the biometric template of the authorized user, and activate the electronically controllable locking mechanism in response to a determination that the biometric input matches the biometric template of the authorized user.

    摘要: A lock assembly includes a lock body and a U-shaped shackle having a curved portion extending between first and second legs receivable in first and second shackle apertures in an upper portion of the lockbox body. The shackle has a guard wall affixed to an interior surface of the curved portion, the guard wall defining an interior arcuate wall surface extending forward and rearward from a central plane bisecting the shackle. The upper portion of the lock body includes first and second protruding projections at least partially surrounding the first and second shackle apertures and defining first and second upwardly diverging interior surfaces laterally aligned with the curved portion of the shackle. The lock body includes a latching mechanism configured to secure the shackle in a plurality of latched positions to adjust a distance between the first and second upwardly diverging interior surfaces and the curved portion of the shackle. When the shackle is secured around a door handle with the shackle secured in a suitable one of the plurality of latched positions, abutment of the interior arcuate wall surface with a neck portion of the door handle impedes forward and rearward rotation of the lock assembly about a horizontal axis extending through the curved portion of the shackle and abutment of the first and second upwardly diverging interior surfaces with a neck portion of the door handle impedes side-to-side twisting rotation of the lock assembly about a vertical axis extending through the curved portion of the shackle.

    摘要: A method for performing a lockout-tagout procedure includes reading, by a sensor of a portable device, a location tag positioned at a location or on a device that an electronic lock is associated with to acquire a location identifier; acquiring, by a communication device of the portable device, audit data from the electronic lock regarding at least one of a lock event or an unlock event of the electronic lock; and at least one of transmitting, by the communication device of the portable device, the audit data and the location identifier to a remote server configured to provide for determination of compliance with the lockout-tagout procedure using the audit data and the location identifier; or interpreting, by a processing circuit of the portable device, the audit data and the location identifier to determine at least one of the lock event or the unlock event is part of the lockout-tagout procedure.

    摘要: A padlock includes a lock body, a shackle receivable in first and second shackle openings in the lock body, and a locking mechanism disposed in the lock body. The locking mechanism includes at least one locking member, a key cylinder rotatable between a locked position and an unlocked position, an actuator assembled with the key cylinder for co-rotation therewith, and a torsion spring having a first end engaging the lock body and a second end engaging the actuator to rotationally bias the key cylinder toward the locked position. The actuator includes a projection that engages a portion of the lock body when the key cylinder is in a locked position, and a blocker portion aligned with the at least one locking member to hold the at least one locking member in locking engagement with the shackle when the key cylinder is in the locked position.
