  • Patent number: 10392840
    Abstract: Device forming an electromagnetic lock comprising an electromagnetic suction pad (3) comprising an electromagnet (4), a counter plate (1) and an electric circuit comprising a current source designed to supply at least one coil of the electromagnet of the electromagnetic suction pad with an electric magnetization current to create an electromagnetic field and an associated electromagnetic force pinning the counter plate and the electromagnetic suction pad against one another to close the lock; switching means designed to cut off the supply of current; and anti-remanent means for dealing with the remanent electromagnetic force which remains when the switching means have disconnected the supply of current to the electromagnetic coil.

  • Publication number: 20150211271
    Abstract: Band profile (3) for a system for opening/closing a door by means of an electromagnetic lock consisting of two elements, an electromagnetic suction pad (2) and a counter plate (1) made from a material that can be attracted by a magnet, the band profile being designed to be fixed to the openable part of the door to support at least one of the two elements of the lock and form a handle for opening the door, the band profile (3) having a transverse cross-section that is substantially in the form of a U comprising two lateral branches (32i, 32e) and a base (40) connecting the two branches and delimiting between them an inner space in which the two elements of the lock are received when the door is in a closed state, characterised in that on the outer surface of at least one of the lateral branches at least one gripping recess (4i, 4e) is formed.

  • Patent number: 8827510
    Abstract: The invention relates to an electromagnetic suction element (3) comprising a light source (10) consisting of a prismatic electromagnet (6) housing in a profiled element having a U-shaped section with ends that are closed by end caps (8) each having a shoulder (8a). Said suction element is characterized in that the end cap at the end of the suction element at least comprising the light source consists of a translucent material.

  • Publication number: 20120104773
    Abstract: The invention relates to a band for electromagnetic suction cups, comprising a tubular profile section (2) having two wings (3-4), one of which is provided with an auxiliary attachment wing (6) extending parallel to the lower surface (5) of the profile section, the opposite surface (12) of which has a second auxiliary wing (13), which forms a handle and which extends above the attachment wing (6) which has a semicircular groove (7) with a swaged opening into which the edge of a screw cover can be slidingly inserted, wherein the other edge of the screw cover comprises a groove, the profile of which enables the same to engage with a rim (11) of the band by snap-fitting, characterized in that the free edge of the handle (13) has a rim (14) similar to the above-mentioned one (11).
