| 20090058102 | ELECTROMECHANICAL PUSH TO CLOSE LATCH - An electromechanical push to close latch has a pawl positioned for linear movement in a housing, with the pawl being biased to the outward extended position. An electric motor operates a cam to change the position of the pawl thereby retracting it into the housing. An electronic circuit board controls the operation of the electric motor under the direction of an outside control signal. The circuit board also senses the position of the pawl to stop the operation of the motor when the pawl is fully retracted. The pawl mounting can be reconfigured for the pawl to extend and thereby operate in a plurality of selectable directions. | 03-05-2009 |
| 20090315341 | Door lock - A bolt mountable on adjacent members of a structure having a bolt assembly mountable on a first member of said structure and a keeper assembly mountable on a second member of said structure. A slide bolt is positioned to move slidably in a first channel in a slide block of bolt assembly which is aligned between the bolt assembly the keeper assembly to provide locking operation with a locking pin depending thru the keeper and is controllable from above keeper. The slide block includes a second channel in longitudinal connection with first channel, but not having entire lengthwise communication with the first channel in order to provide for compressibility. A coil spring is positioned in the second to react with the slide bolt, and a retainer depends from near one end of the slide bolt to provide compressibility for the coil as the slide bolt is locked. Upon release of the locking pin, the compressive force of the coil spring against the retainer forces the slide bolt to open forcefully, | 12-24-2009 |
| 20100117378 | DOORLOCK DEVICE FOR AN ELECTRIC HOME APPLIANCE - The doorlock device according to the present invention comprises a latch which is attached to a door for closing it, a cover including a latch opening and a latch slider which is elastically supported due to the insert of the latch, a locker which restricts the latch slider, a slider which moves the locker up and down, a solenoid which pushes a push cam in accordance with control signal to rotate a rotation cam so that the slider is moved left and right, a housing including the locker, the solenoid and a contact point part in which electric signal is inputted, a locker withdrawal part which forcibly withdraws the protruded locker by the operation of a torsion spring which is elastically supported, thereby separating a movable plate from a fixed plate upon abnormal withdrawal of the latch. According to the doorlock device of the present invention, the push cam operated by the solenoid causes the eccentric part of the rotation part to move the locker vertically, thus resulting in the latch slider being held or released by the locker. This bring about an effect that the structure of the doorlock device can be simplified, so that it becomes easier and cheaper to manufacture the doorlock device. Further, it is possible to provide a doorlock device whose operation credibility is improved. Still further, it is possible to provide a doorlock device which stops the operation of the electric home appliance when the latch is withdrawn abnormally. | 05-13-2010 |
