Patent number: 9888771Abstract: Storage panels for safes, such as gun safes. Some embodiments may comprise an interior storage panel configured so as to be positioned at least partially outside of a safe in an open position, and may be configured so as to extend along and be positioned at least substantially parallel to the safe door in a closed position with the safe door closed. In some embodiments, the interior storage panel may be configured to be repositioned between the open position and the closed position by rotating the interior storage panel about a pivot axis opposite from a pivot axis of the safe door. In some embodiments, the interior storage panel may be configured to extend away from a side of the safe when opened opposite from a side of the safe from which the safe door extends.Type: GrantFiled: August 31, 2015Date of Patent: February 13, 2018Assignee: RHINO METALS, INC.Inventor: Donald Suggs

Publication number: 20160333628Abstract: Safes and related locking enclosures. In some embodiments, the locking enclosures may comprise a clutch mechanism configured to have an engaged configuration and a disengaged configuration. In the engaged configuration, the clutch mechanism may be configured to allow for transfer of torque to an element, such as a crank plate. In the disengaged configuration, the clutch mechanism may be configured to prevent or at least reduce such transfer of torque.Type: ApplicationFiled: July 26, 2016Publication date: November 17, 2016Inventors: Donald Suggs, Scott Moore, Jayson Nelson

Patent number: 9410355Abstract: Safes and related locking enclosures. In some embodiments, the locking enclosures may comprise a crank shaft that may be coupled with a handle. A crank plate may also be coupled with the crank shaft. A clutch mechanism may be coupled with the crank plate and configured to have an engaged configuration and a disengaged configuration. In the engaged configuration, the clutch mechanism may be configured to transfer torque from the crank shaft to the crank plate. In the disengaged configuration, the clutch mechanism may be configured to allow the crank shaft to rotate with respect to the crank plate such that no (or at least reduced) torque from the crank shaft is not transferred to the crank plate.Type: GrantFiled: March 27, 2013Date of Patent: August 9, 2016Assignee: RHINO METALS, INC.Inventors: Donald Suggs, Scott Moore, Jayson Nelson

Patent number: 9140049Abstract: Safes and related storage panels for safes, such as gun safes. Some embodiments may comprise a safe door and an interior storage panel configured to be positioned between a closed position and an open position by rotating the interior storage panel. The interior storage panel may be configured so as to be positioned within the safe in the closed position such that the safe door can be closed in the closed position, and so as to be positioned at least partially outside of the safe in the open position when the safe door is open. In some embodiments, the interior storage panel may be configured so as to extend along and be positioned at least substantially parallel to the safe door in the closed position with the safe door closed.Type: GrantFiled: October 14, 2014Date of Patent: September 22, 2015Assignee: Rhino Metals, Inc.Inventor: Donald Suggs

Publication number: 20150090163Abstract: Overlays for the interior of safe doors, such as doors of metal gun safes. In some embodiments, the safe may comprise a door frame comprising an interior surface. A door backing may be coupled to the interior surface of the door frame. A sheet of material may be coupled to the door backing, and an overlay may be positioned to extend along one or more edges of the interior surface of the door frame such that at least a portion of the sheet of material is positioned between the overlay and the door backing. Such configurations may allow for utilization of the interior of the safe door for storage of various items, such as firearm ammunition and other accessories, and further may simplify the process of manufacturing such accessories and/or improve the appearance of the interior of the door.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 29, 2014Publication date: April 2, 2015Inventor: Donald Suggs
