  • Patent number: 9870662
    Abstract: The invention discloses a wireless lock sensory delivery and control device, system and method comprising a wireless lock and alarm connected to and controlled by Bluetooth connection to a remote device such as a cell phone, tablet, computer or PDA. The lock and alarm can be adjusted by the user remotely through the remote device, to control and modulate functions including alarms, sirens or other sound emitters; shock and movement sensors; lights; global positioning system (GPS) location and tracking components; battery strength detection components; alarm and lock testing and diagnostic feedback mechanisms; registration and warranty monitors; and data collection and storage components.

  • Patent number: 9030102
    Abstract: A lighting device includes an LED light source (20) operable by electric power supplied to the device, and a control system (23) receiving electric power from an external power supply (26) and supplying power to the light source (20). The control system (23) also being operable of operating in a second mode to supply power to the light source (20) only on receipt by the control system (23) via the power supply (26) of a signal identifying said device. Thus the device (24) can be incorporated in a conventional lighting circuit or a circuit in which the devices (24) are individually controlled.

  • Patent number: 8680996
    Abstract: A lock has a body holding a locking member that can be locked to or released from the body by, for example, operation of a key. The lock includes an alarm that is triggered by the locking of the locking member. If, however, the lock is unlocked and relocked within a predetermined time interval, the alarm is disarmed. In this way, the lock can remain locked but with the alarm disarmed. The signals that cause the alarm to arm and disarm can be produced in any convenient way.

  • Publication number: 20140078758
    Abstract: An LED light assembly comprises an aluminium extrusion cut to length to form a heat sink (20) with a hollow interior that may be semi-circular in cross-section or any other convenient cross-section to allow air flow through the heat sink and including a mounting surface (21) for supporting and conveying heat from an LED light source (62) mounted on the surface. The extrusion has a heat dissipating surface (24) with fins (27) for receiving and dissipating heat from the LED light sources (62) on the mounting surface (21). The fins (27) support items such as anchors (45), brackets (37) and casings (28, 35) also formed by lengths of respective extrusions and a sliding fit on the heat sink (20).

  • Patent number: 8646297
    Abstract: A disc brake lock used principally with motorcycles has a body (10) with a U-shaped slot (13) to receive an edge of the disc. A locking pin can be moved to extend through a hole in the disc to fix the lock to the disc. A limb (11) of the U-shaped body (10) that is on the outside when the lock is clamped to the disc contains an alarm system (14) housed in a chamber (28) that cannot be accessed through that limb. The other limb (12), which is between the disc and the wheel, contains a removable cover (34) that, for extra security, can only be opened when the locking pin (16) is retracted. The alarm system (14) is inserted into the chamber (28) through the other limb (12).

  • Patent number: 7752874
    Abstract: A lock is provided with an electronics module (30) by forming the lock with a body (10) and a separate unit (18). The unit (18) includes a locking mechanism (23) and is inserted and removed from the lock body (10), removal allowing easy access to the electronics module (30) without requiring a separate access. This gives increased security. The locking mechanism (23), electronics module (30) and body (10) can be replaced with compatible components.
