| 20150300058 | LOCKABLE LATCHING DEVICE - A lockable latching device includes a body defining a cavity therein and having a central longitudinal axis, and a plunger disposed within the cavity. The plunger has a first end and a second end and is translatable with respect to the body along the axis between an open position and a closed position. The device also includes an annular rotator spaced apart from the body along the axis and configured for rotating the plunger about the axis. The device includes an annular latch abutting the rotator that is transitionable between an unlocked state and a locked state. The device also includes an element attached to the latch and formed from a shape memory alloy that is transitionable between an austenite crystallographic phase and a martensite crystallographic phase in response to an activation signal to thereby transition the latch from the locked state to the unlocked state. | 10-22-2015 |

| 20150035289 | Keyless Lock Assembly - A keyless lock assembly for selectively locking and unlocking a door includes a plate that is coupled to a door. A guide is coupled to the plate. A tubular housing is coupled to the plate. A shaft is operationally coupled to the tubular housing. A locking pin is coupled to the shaft and is positioned within a pin groove. A rotation slot extends into the tubular housing. The rotation slot is in communication with the pin groove. A locking slot extends into the tubular housing. The locking slot is in communication with the rotation slot so the locking slot retains the locking pin. A handle is coupled to the shaft. A locking bracket is coupled to the door. The handle engages the locking bracket. A shaft cup extends into a support surface proximate the door so the shaft cup receives the shaft so the door is locked. | 02-05-2015 |

| 20100295324 | DOOR-LOCK DEVICE WITH DUPLEX SAFETY MEASURES - Provided is a door-lock device for the door of electric home-appliances. In the door-lock device, the entrance of a latch allows a safety pin to move and a slider to be released. The slider moves by a solenoid, thus connecting the home-appliance with the electrical source. The door-lock device comprises a micro switch ( | 11-25-2010 |
| 20110006548 | MECHANISM FOR LOCKING A DOOR OF AN ELECTRIC HOUSEHOLD APPLIANCE - A mechanism for locking a door of an electric household appliance is improved in that a slider jaw is hinged to a body of a slider in such manner that, by its tooth, it snaps or releases a head of a latch and that the slider jaw is provided with an opening finger, and a mechanism housing is provided with a hindering element, which thrusts the opening finger of the slider jaw, when the slider moves in direction of the force of the spring, so that the slider jaw gets open. The slider body and the slider jaw are preferably made of different materials: the slider body of a polyoxymethylene copolymer and the slider jaw of a polyamide or of a ZL4 alloy having a composition Zn:A14:Cu1. The proposed mechanism is not susceptible to plastic deformation of the junction area between the slider body and the slider jaw. | 01-13-2011 |
| 20140042755 | CASE LATCH ASSEMBLY - A case latch assembly having strike plate member on first lock mounting part; hinge member mounted for pivotable movement on second lock mounting part; strike plate engagement member mounted on the hinge member for reciprocal linear movement thereon and having coupling slot provided therein extending generally lengthways and having cam slot provided therein extending generally crossways; rotatably mounted lock nut; cam pin connected to the lock nut at an off-centre position and engaged with the cam slot; and coupling pin connected to the lock nut at a second position and located through the coupling slot. Rotation of the lock nut is translated by movement of the cam pin within the cam slot into linear movement of the strike plate engagement member between a closed position and an extended position and wherein the coupling pin moves along the coupling slot during the rotation of the lock nut. | 02-13-2014 |

| 20140210218 | HANDLE WITH RETRACTABLE PLUNGER - An apparatus that retracts a plunger along an axis about which a handle pivots. The handle has two ends that are perpendicular, the second end having a sidewall with a barrel forming a chamber in which the plunger is slidably mounted. The sidewall has elongated slots through which opposing roller bars that extend from the plunger protrude through. A collar body is rotatably mounted to the second end and has opposing openings with triangular surfaces. The roller bars rest on the triangular surfaces, and when the first end of the handle is rotated about the central axis, the slot sidewalls drive the roller bars around the triangular surfaces, thereby causing axial movement of the plunger away toward the first end of the handle without moving the first end to move out of the plane in which it rotates. | 07-31-2014 |
