  • Patent number: 8490444
    Abstract: The invention relates to a wirelessly controlled electric lock, comprising a lock body (2a), a key cylinder (2b), a turn spindle (3) rotatable by a handle element (3a) internal of the door, the turning of which enables opening of the lock, an opening spindle (4) rotatable by an opening element (5) external of the door, a drive link mechanism (41, 20, 21, 22) enabling the turn spindle (3) and the opening spindle (4) to be coupled with each other for a drive link engagement, such that turning of the opening spindle translates also into a turning motion of the turn spindle. The lock also comprises electrically controlled coupling elements (10, 21, 22, 24, 25, 26), including a piezoelectric actuator (10) which, in a mode activated by an electrical control (12, 31, 33) transmitted (32) wirelessly to the electrical lock, is adapted to fixedly lock a bolt or plunger (10a) which, in its fixedly locked condition, activates said drive link engagement as the opening spindle (4) is turned.

  • Patent number: 7228651
    Abstract: An identification card holder, on the front side of which a replaceable identification card can be placed. A spring-loaded yo-yo is fastened and positioned on the reverse side of the holder, such that the yo-yo remains partially or completely invisible as the card, along with its holder, is viewed from the front side. As the yo-yo is integrated with the holder, the result will be a small-sized, readily portable, and easy-to-handle assembly, which can be distanced from a bearer to the proximity of a code reader for an electric lock without releasing the suspension.
