Abstract: A rotary unit for use with a locking system includes: a base plate having a slot; a rotary member rotatably mounted with the base plate about a first axis of rotation, the rotary member including a plurality of fingers extending radially outwardly from a central portion thereof and an engagement portion fixed to the central portion; and a pawl member pivotally mounted with the base plate about a second axis of rotation and coupled with the connecting member. The pawl member includes an engagement projection that selectively engages the engagement portion of the rotary member to prevent rotation of the rotary member in a first rotative direction but permits rotation of the rotary member in a second rotative direction that is opposite the first rotative direction.

Abstract: A container includes a receptacle having panels and an open end such that at least one of the panels includes a plurality of stop surfaces. A drawer is slideably received in the open end of the receptacle and has a locking member connected thereto. The locking member is movable between a locked position such that a portion of the locking member abuts one of the plurality of stop surfaces to substantially prevent movement of the drawer relative to the receptacle and an unlocked position such that the locking member is retracted from the stop surfaces, thereby allowing the drawer to slide relative to the receptacle. An actuator assembly is on the drawer and has a portion thereof accessible from the open end of the receptacle. The actuator assembly is connected to the locking member such that actuation of the actuator assembly moves the locking member to the unlocked position.
