20100102574 | Vehicular container lid-latching system, assembly, and method - A vehicular container, lid-latching system and method is practiced by outfitting a vehicular container and container lid with an automatic uniquely configured latch mechanism and a latch-engaging structure uniquely configured to cooperably engage the latch mechanism. The latch mechanism is automatically operable by way of engagement with structure directed thereagainst and preferably outfitted upon the container at one end thereof. The latch-engaging structure, preferably outfitted upon the lid, engages the latching mechanism under a directed load and for automatic and selective latching securement or latching release of the lid relative to the container. | 04-29-2010 |
20120235426 | UNLOCKING DEVICE - The invention relates to an unlatching device ( | 09-20-2012 |
20130147212 | GLOVE COMPARTMENT DEVICE - A glove compartment device having a lock body being mounted directly on a lid and of a latch urging spring provided between a pivoting latch and the lock body with a spring force urging the pivoting latch to the side where engagement with a striker is released. A plate spring that is mounted on the lock body urging so as to urge the striker to the side to disengage from the pivoting latch when the plate spring has one end thereof engaged with the lock body before mounting of the plate spring onto the lock body is completed. A latch urging spring is a torsion spring and has one end engaged with the lock opposing the plate spring ( | 06-13-2013 |
20140183881 | LOCKING DEVICE - A locking device is described including: a rotary motor; a worm drive arrangement including a worm and a gear; and a pivotally mounted bolt which is rotatable between a retracted position and an extended position; the motor is arranged to drive the worm to rotate the gear; as the gear rotates it cooperates with a cam formation associated with the bolt to move the bolt between the retracted and extended positions. | 07-03-2014 |
20140353984 | Locking Apparatus - A locking apparatus is provided that relates to a fastener and is used to solve a problem that time and labor are consumed and installation efficiency is low in a locking process of an existing locking apparatus. The locking apparatus is configured to lock a first module and a second module, and includes a locking body that is installed on the first module and a locking piece that is installed on the second module. The locking body includes a housing and a rotating block disposed inside the housing, where the rotating block is connected to a handle that drives the rotating block to rotate out of or into the housing, and the locking piece has a notch that accommodates the rotating block. The present invention is used to implement locking between modules. | 12-04-2014 |
20150108771 | SOLENOID-DRIVEN LATCH AND EJECTOR DEVICE - A solenoid-driven latch and ejector device to latch and selectively unlatch and eject an object. An electromechanical solenoid produces linear motion, and a latch and ejector arm is operatively coupled to the solenoid for pivotal movement about a pivot axis of the arm. | 04-23-2015 |
20150315813 | APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR VENDING SECURELY STORED PRODUCTS TO CONSUMERS - A lock mechanism is disclosed, the lock mechanism having a rotary latch configured for rotation between a locked position and an unlocked position, the rotary latch rotating in a first plane and the rotary latch is retained in the locked position after it has been rotated into the locked position from the unlocked position, the rotary latch being spring biased into the unlocked position by a biasing member; and a first lock mechanism for retaining the rotary latch in the locked position after rotation of the rotary latch into the locked position, the rotary latch being capable of being manipulated back into the unlocked position from the locked position after actuation of the first locking mechanism into a release position, wherein actuation of the first lock mechanism is in a second plane that is not parallel to the first plane. | 11-05-2015 |
