    摘要: A smart cable lock is provided that is configured to mechanically secure items and provide an automatic determination that securing is achieved. The smart cable may be integrated into a vehicle, or otherwise may communicate with a vehicle. The vehicle includes one or more ports configured to house the cable when not in use. In some embodiments, an accessory includes one or more ports configured to engage with the connector. In some embodiments, the cable is affixed to the vehicle at one end, using a retractor, for example, and can be unspooled, intertwined with equipment, and then secured to a port on the vehicle. The smart cable lock secures and releases a latch based on user indications and authorizations. For example, if the cable is destroyed or damaged, or an unauthorized indication is made, the cable lock system may sound an alarm, or otherwise alert the user.

    摘要: A chain lock includes a lock body having a first closure part, a second closure part, and a combination locking mechanism that is aligned along a lock axis. The chain lock having a bolt selectively locked to the lock body by the combination locking mechanism. The lock body has a chain connection part permanently connected to the bolt via a chain. The combination locking mechanism having a plurality of rotatable code setting rings arranged between the first and second closure parts. At a first end the lock body has at least one first fastening pin that engages through the housing sleeve into an annular groove of the chain connection part. At a second end the lock body has at least one second fastening pin that engages through the housing sleeve into the second closure part of the lock body and that fixes the second closure part to the housing sleeve.

    摘要: A tamper resistant locking dog collar includes a lock box and a collar. The lock box forms a cavity for housing a locking mechanism having a locking pin and a collar channel defined by an upper receiving plate and a lower receiving plate. The lock box includes a primary aperture and a secondary aperture for receipt of the collar therethrough. The collar is permanently secured to the lock box on a terminal collar end, and it is sized for insertion through the primary aperture and secondary aperture of the lock box. The collar includes at least one collar aperture that is sized for engaged receipt of the locking pin when the terminal collar end is inserted through the primary aperture and the secondary aperture, when in a locked configuration. In the unlocked configuration, the locking pin is disengaged from the collar aperture, permitting movement of the terminal collar end.

    摘要: A security apparatus for a portable electronic device having an aperture includes a lock mechanism having a lock cylinder and a cam member. The lock cylinder is configured to be rotated by a key. The cam member is coupled to the lock cylinder for rotation with the lock cylinder. The cam member has a slot. The security apparatus also includes an engagement mechanism having a first finger, a second finger, and a plunger. The first finger and the second finger are configured to be inserted into the aperture of the portable electronic device. The plunger is positioned between the first finger and the second finger and has a cam follower positioned within the slot of the cam member. As the cam member is rotated by the lock cylinder, the plunger pushes the first finger and the second finger apart from each other to engage the portable electronic device.

    摘要: A seal assembly for a container includes a locking assembly and a gateway. The locking assembly includes a body and an elongated cable. The elongated cable extends from a proximal end to a distal end. The proximal end is restrained by the body. The distal end is movable from an unlocked position spaced from the body to a locked position restrained by the body. The gateway is configured for selectively interlocking with the locking assembly. The gateway includes a power supply, a radio communication device, a sensor, and a processor electrically coupled therewith. The processor is configured to operate the radio communication device to transmit a first signal upon detection by the sensor of interlocking of the gateway with the locking assembly, and to transmit a second signal upon detection by the sensor that the elongated cable has been cut. Locking assemblies, gateways, devices and methods are also provided.
