  • Publication number: 20160102478
    Abstract: A lock with a door handle and/or an anti-panic bar, which is/are operatively connected to a follower that can be coupled and uncoupled, with an electromechanical energizing unit and at least one sensor for the access control of a door, where in an uncoupled condition of the follower, the follower is in a contact position with the sensor, and wherein by activating the electromechanical energizing unit, the follower can be transferred into a coupling condition, wherein, in the coupling condition, the follower releases the sensor into a release position by actuating the door handle and/or the anti-panic bar, where the follower includes an arm with a rotatably supported actuating element, where, in the coupling condition, by actuating the door handle and/or the anti-panic bar, the actuating element releases the sensor from the contact position into the release position.

  • Publication number: 20150107313
    Abstract: A lock for a sliding panel for receiving different lock mechanisms includes: a housing configured to receive a lock mechanism; and a locking element configured to lock the lock, the locking element being movable between a locked position in which the locking element projects at least partially from the housing and an unlocked position in which the locking element dips at least partially into the housing. The housing is configured such that at least one actuating element is exchangeably arrangeable in and/or at the housing so that the at least one actuating element is operatively connectable with the locking element to actuate the locking element.

  • Publication number: 20140157672
    Abstract: A door opener includes a detector configured to detect a relative and/or absolute position of mobile structural components of the door opener. The detector has at least one magneto-sensitive sensor configured to be accommodated in a carrier of at least one printed circuit board, the magneto-sensitive sensor being at least partially disposed within the printed circuit board. Contacts of the magneto-sensitive sensor are coupled to the at least one printed circuit board, either directly or via a conductor foil. The magneto-sensitive sensor cooperates with at least one magnet at a structural component, which is mobile in relation to the magnet, to generate a position signal.
