Abstract: The invention concerns a system (1) to provide access to premises (P1-P4) that comprise entrances (E1.1, E1.2, E2-E4) locked by means of electromechanical key locks (L1.1, L1.2, L2-L4), which for locking and unlocking are powered by insertion and actuation of at least one programmable key (24). In said system (1) an administrator (10) contacts a service unit (20) in possession of a programmable key (24) and provides it with synchronization data (13) for an electromechanical key lock (L1.2) of at least one entrance (E1.1) of at least one premise (P1) at an exact geographic position of a site (S).

Abstract: An electromechanical lock assembly (1) comprising a lock body (13), a lock core (21) located at least partially within the lock body (13) and selectively rotatable with respect to the lock body (13), the lock core (21) including a key receptacle (23), a bolt operating member rotationally secured to the lock core (21) and configured to move a lock bolt of a lock (3) for locking and unlocking said lock (3), and a programmable key (12), wherein said electromechanical lock assembly is configured to be powered upon insertion of the programmable key (12) in said key receptacle (23). A position sensing device (27) is arranged to transmit position data to said programmable key (12).

Abstract: The present invention relates to an electromechanical lock assembly (1) comprising a lock body (15), a lock core (17), a lock bolt operating member (19), and an electronic access control device. The electromechanical lock assembly further comprises an annular element (27) which is rotatably and axially displaceably mounted on said lock core (17), a coupling device (25) arranged to communicate with said electronic access control device and, upon the insertion of an appropriate key (65) in a key receptacle (37) of the lock core (17), rotationally lock the annular element (27) to the lock core (17), thereby enabling rotation of the lock core (17) in a first direction and thereby enabling unlocking of a lock (3) with said appropriate key (65), and a blocking arrangement (63) arranged to prevent unauthorized unlocking of said lock (3).

Abstract: In one embodiment of the present invention, a lock device is adapted to unlock a lock by transferring a lock catch from a locking position to a releasing position. The device includes an electric motor, which is mechanically connected to an axle via at least one transmission device, and rotation of the axle actuates the lock catch. In at least one embodiment, the transmission device includes a weakening structure adapted to break and disrupt the mechanical connection between the electric motor and the axle if a threshold force is exceeded.

Abstract: A lock actuating device is presented for mounting to a door leaf of a door. The lock actuating device has a transceiver capable of interaction with a wireless key device by short-range wireless data communication. A controller of the lock actuating device is coupled to the transceiver and capable of generating a control signal. A lock actuator has an electric motor and is adapted for actuation of an internal lock mechanism of a lock inside the door leaf upon receipt of the control signal from the controller. A local battery power unit serves as a sole power source for powering the lock actuating device. The lock actuating device has a sleep mode, in which elements of the lock actuating device are inactive and consume negligible power, and an operational mode. The controller has a control input for receiving a wake-up control signal indicative of the presence of a user in a vicinity of the lock actuating device, and causing the lock actuating device to switch from sleep mode to operational mode.
