Patent number: 11112212Abstract: A secure storage system may provide secure, portable, and rapidly accessible storage for articles such as firearms. Such a system may have a shell with first and second shell members that can be closed to keep the articles secure, or opened to provide accessibility. A locking mechanism may be used to lock the shell in the closed configuration. The locking mechanism may be controlled by a wireless receiver that receives a signal to unlock the shell. The shell may include a secure-side programming interface to allow a user to set control system parameters when the system is in the unlocked state.Type: GrantFiled: August 3, 2018Date of Patent: September 7, 2021Inventor: Ryan P. Hyde

Patent number: 10533363Abstract: A stand-up gun safe comprises a substantially vertical, but moderately tilted, spine that supports one or more hinges, which in turn support two shell components that rotate relative to the spine and swivel relative to each other. In a closed configuration, the respective edges of the two shell components abut each other, creating a secure seam. In an open configuration, the two shell components are separated from each other as they swivel and rotate away from each other on the hinges secured to the spine. A locking mechanism keeps the two shell components in a closed state. Because the spine is tilted, and the two shells are located on the top of the spine, when the lock is released gravity forces the two shells apart from each other, thereby resulting in a gravity-powered opening.Type: GrantFiled: November 22, 2017Date of Patent: January 14, 2020Inventor: Ryan P. Hyde

Patent number: 10531167Abstract: A method, system, and apparatus for security and monitoring are disclosed. In one embodiment, a small device with five sensors (temperature, light, motion, accelerometer, sound) includes a processor, local data storage, and WiFi and Bluetooth communication capabilities. The device may collect data through its sensors and may store such data on its local storage and/or may transmit such data to a remote monitoring server over WiFi (to a local router first over WiFi) and may also transmit data to a mobile device over Bluetooth. The mobile device and remote monitoring server may also configure the device. The device includes a power management scheme including heartbeats and minimized sampling rates.Type: GrantFiled: July 6, 2017Date of Patent: January 7, 2020Inventor: Ryan P. Hyde

A locking mechanism may be used to lock the shell in the closed configuration. The locking mechanism may be controlled by a wireless receiver that receives a signal to unlock the shell. The shell may have a signal-permeable layer that enables the signal to pass through the shell. The first and second shell members may have mounting features that enable articles within the shell to be secured to the shell in a variety of positions and/or orientations. The system may also include a location sensor that detects the location of the shell and notifies the user when the shell is outside an approved zone.Type: GrantFiled: December 13, 2013Date of Patent: October 24, 2017Assignee: RPH Engineering LLCInventors: Ryan P.

Publication number: 20160042582Abstract: A lock, such as a padlock or a door lock, having radio frequency identification (RFID) and/or Bluetooth capabilities is disclosed. The control system in the lock may obtain identifying information from a user device presented close to the lock, and operates an actuator to unlock the lock based on the identifying information. The lock may include both an RFID reader and a Bluetooth system in a single device, and may automatically lock and unlock the lock by detecting a presence or an absence of a user device near the lock. At least a portion of a front face of the lock may be made of non-metallic material. The lock may include an indicator for indicating a power-on state, a Bluetooth connection status, a locked or unlocked status, and/or a low-battery state.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 8, 2015Publication date: February 11, 2016Inventors: Ryan P. Hyde, Jacob S. Morrise, John Robert Schwartz, Michael R. Colton, Neal Taylor Tew

Patent number: 8191921Abstract: A utility trailer, as for example may be towed behind a vehicle, is disclosed. A description of the assembly, reconfiguration, expandability and folding of the trailer is described. The trailer is easy to store, manufacture, reconfigure and disassemble in large measure due to the unique repeated nature of the main frame components. The frame components can also be removed from the trailer assembly and reconfiguring into different useful devices. The reconfiguration requires minimal additional hardware and is further simplified by the locking mechanisms, located at the connection locations of is each frame panel. The trailer/accessory system also offers advantages over other trailers in that it may be maintained by replacement of common panel components. The wheel assemblies are also collapsible to further reduce necessary storage space and shipping requirements.Type: GrantFiled: May 30, 2009Date of Patent: June 5, 2012Assignee: RPH EngineeringInventor: Ryan P Hyde
