  • Patent number: 12123223
    Abstract: A lock for overhead roll doors and particularly a retrofit lock that enables both manual and remote wireless locking and unlocking of a roll door. More specifically, a roll door lock having an interior plate with a cylinder lock aperture, a motorhead gear coupled to a motor and rotationally secured within the housing, and a controller functionally coupled to the motor, wherein the controller may be commanded to operate the motor to lock the roll door lock by causing a blocking coupler edge to reduce the diameter of a ball-pin aperture, and unlock the roll door lock by withdrawing the blocking coupler edge.

  • Patent number: 12031354
    Abstract: In general, the present invention is incorporated in a cam lock housing that is securable relative to a drawer or door. Coupled to the cam lock housing is an actuator package. The actuator package of this exemplary cam lock system can include a retractable geared plate or tongue, a micro gear motor, a controller, and a power system. In operation, the drive gear/pinion causes lateral displacement of tongue towards or away from a latch in order to lock or unlock the item. As such, a medicine cabinet (or similar), can be remotely locked or unlocked. Alternatively, rotation of a physical key within the cam lock rotates the cam lock housing and the tongue towards or away from a latch so that the cam lock can also be operated manually.

  • Patent number: 11391065
    Abstract: Method and its enabling device for remote wireless micro-latching for security purposes, comprising at least one user or controller, one mobile communication device, and one secured device, whereas said user is enabled to open or close a micro-latch in said a secured device, for instant a safe box or a medical cabinet, allowing access to secured content, including money, ID card, checks, as well as medicine. Also disclosed is a multiplicity of said devices and their preprogrammed remote control by computer or mobile app. The micro-latching can be amplified to macro-latching, for instance by a micro-solenoid switching a high power electrical switch bank or relay, which in turn initiates industrial processes.

  • Publication number: 20140229192
    Abstract: Generally, the present invention is incorporated in a system of interconnected software, devices (e.g., hardware, viewing screens), and databases (the “system”) that receive, log and score a series of objective data over time in order to generate an numerical score (or index). The data can be almost anything, a color, a dimension, the angle between two objects, or other objective relationships that can change over time. For health issues, the data could be a skin mole, teeth color, hair color or recession, various diseases and so forth. This invention is useful for a user who wants to track one or more health issues. In addition, this invention is useful for a seller of goods and services related to the tracked health issue.
