  • Telecommunication system for remotely controlling electronic devices
    Patent number: 6388557
    Abstract: An electronic signal communication system for processing remote signals to be conveyed from a subscribed transmitting client to a subscribed receiving client. Several transmitters, each having first and second inputs, are linked with remotely located sets of receivers compatible with the communications links used. A generating signal assembly generates a first signal and a plurality of second signals. The first signal includes control and possibly data information. The second signals enable one of several transmitters. Once received, a detector and selector assembly detects the receiver's active output and conveys the information to a subscribing recipient who in turn has one or more actuating devices controlling the conventional controllable resources of the subscribed recipient.

  • Firearm locking mechanism
    Patent number: 6385890
    Abstract: A firearm locking mechanism for handguns primarily comprising a locking assembly with first and second ends, said first end having first and second arms bifurcated parallel and spaced apart to receive a handgun. The locking assembly further has an elongated member, which serves as latching means to remove the firearm from the locking assembly. Interacting with the elongated member is a locking system controlled by a key, giving the authorized user the ability to set the firearm locking assembly in a “locked” or “unlocked” mode. The firearm locking assembly prevents the removal of the handgun when the trigger guard is obstructed within the first and second arms. The present invention is primarily utilized with firearms such as pistols and revolvers.

  • Ethernet based network to control electronic devices
    Patent number: 6373851
    Abstract: A data communication system wherein a network is connected to one polling server and several client stations over a relatively large area. The polling server includes a transceiver connected to the network and is capable of transmitting and receiving a data signal. The client stations are daisy chained in a network connected to said polling server and also provided with a transceiver module connected to the network and they are allowed to broadcast only when accessed by the polling server. A regeneration circuit provides the received data and control signal to its module's transmitter which is in turn presented to the adjacent client station, or vehicular traffic control device. If the module belongs to the first client station in the network, then the data and control signal will be presented to the central location's communications server.

  • Security closure for dwelling openings
    Patent number: 6357509
    Abstract: A security closure device to protect a building opening and a closure member. The device includes a main security panel and a narrower secondary security panel that are hingedly mounted to each other. The side of the main security panel opposite to the smaller security panel is hingedly mounted to a security casing assembly inside the building defining the protected opening. A user can readily unlock the narrower panel from the casing assembly from inside the building without requiring a key or combination. From the outside, a key or combination is required. To open the inwardly swinging security closure, a user opens the closure member a sufficient distance determined by the width of the secondary panel to unlock it. The angular travel of the secondary panel with respect to the main security panel is limited by a stopper assembly.
