20110101705 | LOCKING DEVICE HAVING POSITIONING AND FLOATING ADJUSTABLE CAPABILITY - A locking device having positioning and floating adjustable capability is provided, which includes a positioning part, disposed on a lateral side of an apparatus, the lateral side has at least one fixing opening, having a positioning opening at a periphery of the at least one fixing opening, and at least one side of the positioning opening has a necking channel; a bracket, having a sliding slot while being disposed on a frame; and a locking element, slidably coupled to the sliding slot, and enters the positioning opening under the guide of the necking channel while sliding in the sliding slot, so as to be aligned with the fixing opening. Moreover, the locking device is applicable to an apparatus having different fixing opening locations, so that the locking element can be aligned with the fixing opening easily and conveniently, thereby locking the apparatus to the bracket. | 05-05-2011 |
20120274083 | Hexalobular, or star, control means - A locking and control device consisting of a hexalobular, or star security headed machine screw, which screw can be modified for security reasons by closing off the star interstices and removing its corresponding screwdriver lobes such that when the machine screw head is inserted into a hole drilled through a door or door frame, being part of a doorway, and secured there by means of a base mounting plate screwed to the inside of the door, or door frame, the machine screw head can be accessed through the said hole by means of a corresponding screwdriver such that when the machine screw head is turned by the screw-driver so also will the lock bolt, or some other means to be controlled such as a slide plate or electrical switch attached to the machine screw end be turned thus locking or unlocking the door or operating the other said devices. | 11-01-2012 |
20130221688 | Latch Mechanism For Manhole Cover with Captured Operator - A latch mechanism for a manhole cover in which a rotatable operator member has a threaded portion engaged with a threaded bore in a cam pin which rides in a pair of cam slots in a latching member to cause the latching member to be extended or retracted upon rotation of the operator member in either direction. The threads disengage when the latch member reaches a fully retracted position so that the operating member can freely spin thereafter in the same direction, while the threads reengage when the operator member is rotated in the opposite direction to begin movement of the latch member out of the housing. | 08-29-2013 |
20140252779 | Locking Arrangement - In accordance with an example embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a locking arrangement configured to attach to each other a body part of an electronic device and a cover part of the electronic device. The locking arrangement includes an elongated locking part configured to be mounted inside the body part. The locking part is configured to be movable between an open position and a closed position inside the body part and the locking part extends along most of the length of one edge of the body part. In the closed position the locking part engages the cover part thereby coupling the cover part and the body part together. | 09-11-2014 |
20140361551 | High Security Locking Assembly for Above-Ground Fiber Optic/Cable Network Enclosures - A high security locking assembly for an above-ground communications network enclosure comprises a claw-like structure having, at one end, a slide bar with an end plate that carries a first set of locking pins, and a base plate, at the other end, having an end plate that carries a second set of locking pins. The slide bar travels axially in a guide channel below a rigid frame that holds a captive locking bolt positioned to engage one of a series of axially spaced locking holes on the slide bar. The locking pins face one another and are adapted for sliding into corresponding locking pin holes in the sides of enclosure. The claw-like structure is closed by sliding the slide bar into the guide channel, and positioning the pins in the locking pin holes, followed by locking the captive locking bolt in a selected one of the locking holes. | 12-11-2014 |
20160060922 | SINGLE STAGE LEADSCREW CINCH ACTUATOR - A door latch assembly for an automotive vehicle door includes a gearless cinch actuator. The cinch actuator includes an extensible housing member connected to a threaded rod by a nut. The extensible housing member is also connected to a cable for cinching the door. A motor rotates the threaded rod, which moves the extensible housing member between rest and cinched positions. The motor is connected to the threaded rod without the use of gears. An anti-friction agent, such as a combination of a PTFE-containing coating and PTFE-containing grease, is applied between the nut and the threaded rod. The materials and anti-friction agent used at the interface of the threaded rod and nut together provide a friction coefficient (μ) of about 0.045 or less. | 03-03-2016 |
