20140263316 | Keyed Caps for Containers and Devices and Systems Related Thereto - In some aspects, a keyed cap for a container is provided. Furthermore, in some aspects, a keyed container device including a container and the keyed cap for the container is also provided. Still further, in some aspects, a keyed containing system including a container, keyed cap for the container, and an electronic device having a keying element that is adapted to mate or otherwise fit with a specific keying element on the keyed cap. If a keyed cap has a keying element that does not correctly correspond to a specific keying element on an electronic device, then the keyed cap will not properly mate with the keying element on the electronic device. For example, the two keying elements that do not match may not fit sufficiently far enough within each other to permit the piercing member on the electronic device to reach a septum on the cap. | 09-18-2014 |
20150114961 | BOOK WITH INTEGRATED LOCKING SYSTEM - A selectively lockable book-like structure comprises front and back covers and a combination-controlled lock assembly selectively switchable between a closed state securing the front and back covers together and an unlocked state releasing the front and back covers from each other. The front cover is pivotable relative to the back cover to move between an open position and a closed position. The combination-controlled lock assembly includes an electrically activated locking mechanism including an electromagnetic lock actuator and a latch bolt operatively connected to the electromagnetic lock actuator and movable between a locking position and an unlocking position, a digital input keypad accessible on an outer face of the front cover for manually operating the locking mechanism, and an electronic controller configured to control the locking mechanism based on electrical signals from the digital input keypad to perform locking and unlocking functions. | 04-30-2015 |
20160186465 | SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR CONTROLLING LOCK-BOX WITH BACKLIT FRONT PANEL - A lock-box may include a set of walls defining a compartment, an electromechanical lock assembly, and a door rotatably coupled to the set of walls that, when in a closed position, forms a fully enclosed lock-box, the door including a front side that includes a user interface in communication with the electromechanical lock assembly, and by which a user interfaces to lock and unlock the door. The front side of the door further includes a panel configured to be backlit and an illumination device configured to backlight the panel. | 06-30-2016 |
