  • Publication number: 20100052339
    Abstract: A locker structure is disclosed. The structure comprises a housing, latch, bolt, sliding member triggering rod, positioned within the housing, wherein the sliding member has a bottom edge provided with a slot holding a spring and a steel bead such that the sliding member moves to urge at the bolt or disconnected from the bolt form a locking state and the handle cannot be opened, or open the locker via an external handle, the sliding member is provided with a securing hole to lock with a body plate having a vertical long slot, and a spring and steel beads are provided between the plate body and the sliding member such that the plate body can be triggered to slide up and down by means of the long hole so as to change the urging position of the triggering rod and the triangular latch can change into different position adaptable to door opening at the left and right side.

  • Patent number: 7603880
    Abstract: A mortise lock includes a case. A locking slide forms a bore to receive a spring and a steel ball to allow the locking slide to be slidable with respect to the lock case to abut against and/or disengage from a locking latch. The mortise lock is operated by turning an inside knob to drive a deadbolt and a latch lever and the locking slide is moved inward to engage a lever hub assembly thereby ensuring a locked condition. The mortise lock cannot be unlocked by operating an outside lever. When an inside lever is depressed, the lever hub assembly is driven to cause the rocker arm to push away a hooking lever and a knob spindle assembly, thereby retracting the deadbolt and the latch bolt and simultaneously moving the locking slide outward to show an unlocked condition, whereby the mortise lock can be unlocked by operating the outside lever.

  • Publication number: 20050214782
    Abstract: This invention provides quantitative, systematic and standardized High Throughput Screening (HTS) methods capable to the identification of both known and unknown sequences without prior knowledge of the sequences of interest. Either coding or non-coding sequences could be targeted, identified and analyzed systematically and respectively at genomic, transcriptional and translational levels with those methods. The genetic algorithms for sequence deducing and standardized universal libraries constructing are provided. The genetic algorithms are 61.sup.(n?m), 61.sup.n, 64.sup.(n?m), 64.sup.n., 20.sup.(n?m) and 20.sup.n. Applications of the standardized universal libraries include gene expression profiling, signature sequence identification and sequence determination by PCR, cloning, dot-blot hybridization, ELISA, DNA and Peptide Arrays.
