  • Patent number: 12320151
    Abstract: A disc tumbler cylinder lock has a lock cylinder base, multiple discs, and multiple gaskets. The lock cylinder base has an accommodating space, a position limiting opening, and an accommodating opening. Each of the discs has a position limiting protrusion and a disc notch. Each of the gaskets has a ring body, a position limiting segment, and a rotation limiting segment. The position limiting segment protrudes outward from an outer annular surface of the ring body along a radial direction. The rotation limiting segment protrudes from the position limiting segment along an axial direction of the lock sleeve. The discs and the gaskets are staggeredly accommodated in the accommodating space. A side surface of the position limiting protrusion abuts a side surface of the position limiting opening. Two sides of the position limiting segment abut two opposite sides of the position limiting opening.

  • Patent number: 10313845
    Abstract: Non-limiting examples of the present disclosure describe proactive speech detection on behalf of a user and alerting the user when a specific word, name, etc. is detected. Speech detection is actively executed through a computing device, where the speech detection analyzes spoken utterances in association with a dynamic grammar file stored locally on the computing device. An alert is generated that indicates when a spoken word of the utterances matches a word stored in the dynamic grammar file. The alert may be displayed, for example, through the computing device. The alert provides indication that the spoken word is identified in the spoken utterances. In further examples, a buffered window of the spoken utterances is captured which is associated with a detection of the specific word. A live transcription of the content in the buffered window is generated and provided to a computing device of the user.

  • Patent number: 8393189
    Abstract: A tubular lock has a casing, a key pin seat, a driving pin seat, at least one positioning assembly, a side pin seat, at least one side positioning assembly and a fastening assembly. The positioning assembly is mounted axially in the key pin seat and is mounted through the driving pin seat. The side positioning assembly is mounted transversely through the casing and the side pin seat. With the installation of the side positioning assembly, the tubular lock can increase the permutation combinations of all the positioning assemblies. With the positioning assembly and the side positioning assembly operating in perpendicular directions to each other, the tubular lock can increase the difficulty of unlocking. With the both features, the tubular lock can enhance safety.

  • Patent number: 7454934
    Abstract: A resettable tumbler lock includes: a lock housing; a sleeve mounted rotatably in the lock housing and formed with a plurality of tumbler bores; a cylindrical latch-connecting part mounted rotatably in the lock housing and formed with a plurality of tumbler holes and a plurality of blind holes; and a plurality of spring-biased tumbler units. The sleeve is rotatable relative to the latch-connecting part between first and second angular positions. At least one of the tumbler bores in the sleeve has an axial projection that does not coincide with that of an aligned one of the tumbler holes in the latch-connecting part when the sleeve is disposed at a predetermined position between the first and second angular positions.

  • Patent number: 6550299
    Abstract: A cylinder lock has a first tumbler, a second tumbler and a third tumbler all received in a hollow cylindrical housing. The first tumbler is selectively rotatable relative to the second tumbler and the second tumbler together with the first tumbler is selectively rotatable to the third tumbler. By pressing downward the actuating pin, a rearrangement between first tumbler pins and second tumbler pins by relative rotation of the first tumbler to the second tumbler adapts to a different key.
