Abstract:
A low profile actuating window lock for casement windows having a longitudinal slot in a sidewall of the casing for the lock, wherein a fork component translates within the slot in a direction perpendicular to an axis of rotation of the handle and the handle rotates along a plane perpendicular to the fork component, the handle pivotable about a restrictor arm that pivots relative to the casing, allowing the handle to rotate fully from the locked position to the unlocked position with low clearance from the window frame. The pivot points of the handle and restrictor arm configuration allow for an over center linkage that prevents back driving the casement window lock.
Abstract:
A lock or latch body (30) including a housing (32), a bolt (34), and a bolt retractor (38). The bolt (34) is adapted for movement towards and away from the housing (32). The bolt retractor (38) is adapted for moving the bolt (34) towards the housing (32). The bolt retractor (38) is pivotable about a bolt retractor axis (x-x) and includes an eccentric force receiving part (44).
Abstract:
The invention relates to a device for the situation-dependent authorised admission or access to any casing, in addition to the protection of said casing against misuse of the content. Said device comprises at least one opening/closing mechanism (1) and at least one locking/unlocking mechanism (2) which can be engaged or disengaged and/or actuated by the opening/closing mechanism (1). Said invention is characterised by the fact that in the access area of one or more locking/unlocking mechanisms (2), the casing is provided with at least one barrier (3) which can be overridden by means of at least one mechanical and/or electromechanical protector or covering which can be actuated manually, the irreversible deformation/destruction of said barrier nonetheless providing access to a locking/unlocking mechanism (2).
Abstract:
A door handle lock assembly includes a housing configured to be attached to a door. A interconnecting member is rotatably and axially movably supported by the housing. A first handle is fixed to the interconnecting member at a first end of the interconnecting member and a second handle is fixed to the interconnecting member at a second end of the interconnecting member. The door is between the second handle and the housing. The door handle lock assembly is changed from a locked condition to an unlocked condition by axially moving the interconnecting member from a first position to a second position and then rotating the interconnecting member.
Abstract:
A locker is provided. The locker comprises a base defining a storage space, a door coupled to the base and rotatable relative to the base between an open position and a closed position, and a latch bar supported at an interior side of the door by at least one projection that engages at least one guide slot in the latch bar. The latch bar is moveable parallel to the door between an extended position and a retracted position. The latch bar is biased toward the extended position to secure the panel in the closed position. The extended position is horizontally and vertically offset from the retracted position.
Abstract:
A handle set includes an operator having a retention slot. A chassis is provided for mounting the operator. The chassis includes a sleeve having a bore, and an opening extending through the sleeve to the bore. An operator catch cartridge assembly is configured for mounting to the chassis via the opening. The operator catch cartridge assembly includes a housing defining a guide channel. An operator catch is positioned in the guide channel for sliding engagement with the housing. A biasing member biases the operator catch with respect to the housing. The operator catch engages the retention slot in the operator when the operator is received over the sleeve of the chassis.
Abstract:
A multipoint latch system for releasably securing a first panel member against an enclosure cabinet or frame, the latch system having a translatable rod member (11) adapted to be mounted on a door panel, a rod guide (12) which is fixably mounted on the door panel, a pillow block (24) which is connected to the rod member and a pawl member (13) rotatably mounted to the pilow block, there further being a camming mechanism (14, 15, 22) which causes the pawl to rotate relative to the rod member as the rod is translated. A keeper (45) is provided for installation on a corresponding enclosure frame, and an actuator (53,54,55,56,65) is provided to facilitate translation of the rod member to release the pawl from engagement with the keeper.
Abstract:
A laterally floating latch hub assembly (28) includes a latch key receptor (60) translatably mounted within a rotatable latch actuation cam (32). Latch keys (33) within a port door (26) are received within the latch key receptor, which is capable of translating laterally to ensure a proper fit of the latch key within the receptor. Once received within the receptor, torque from the latch keys is transmitted to the latch actuation cam via the latch key receptor.
