Publication number: 20230274594Abstract: Systems, devices, and methods for controlling access to a secure space are disclosed. The system includes a locking device fastenable to an access point of the secure space, a server, and a network for communication between the locking device and server. The server includes a storage unit to store authorization data for the locking device and the user computing device, and a processing unit for receiving a request from the user computing device to access the locking device; authenticating the user computing device; generating authorization data; and providing at least part of the authorization data to each of the locking device and the user computing device. The locking device includes an actuator, a memory, and a processing unit for receiving a security command from the user computing device; determining whether the security command includes requesting data that corresponds to the authorization data; and generating a control signal for the actuator to move the locking device based on the security command.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 9, 2023Publication date: August 31, 2023Inventors: Jeanne Grzenda, Timothy Kyowski, Sean B.

Patent number: 11710362Abstract: Systems and methods for controlling access to a secured space are disclosed. The system includes a locking device having a body having a rotatable locking cam having a locked paddle and an unlocked paddle. The cam is rotatable between a first position and a second position. The body also has a locking pin and a power supply for supplying electrical power to circuit components of the locking device. The locking device also includes a shackle having two arms. One of the two arms has a groove in a bottom portion thereof configured to engage with the locking pin when the shackle is in a closed position. In the first position, the locked paddle of the rotatable locking cam engages the locking pin in the groove. In the second position, the locked paddle of the rotatable locking cam is disengaged from the locking pin.Type: GrantFiled: June 29, 2021Date of Patent: July 25, 2023Assignee: Konnex Enterprises Inc.Inventors: Jeanne Grzenda, Timothy Kyowski, Steven Fyke, Jason T.
