  • Patent number: 9317987
    Abstract: A safe including a safe controller coupled to a data transfer port is provided. The safe controller is configured to selectively enable device data to pass through the data transfer port when a valid code is received by the safe controller. A system for controlling data communications with an internal device in a safe is also provided. The system includes an external computing device configured to execute a series of instructions, and a safe. The safe includes a data transfer port coupled to the external computing device and the internal device. The safe also includes a safe controller coupled to the data transfer port, wherein the safe controller is configured to selectively enable communication between the external computing device and the internal device when a valid code is received by the safe controller.

  • Patent number: 8570719
    Abstract: A fire resistant enclosure for a data storage device is provided. The enclosure includes an enclosure base comprising a base cap and a base body. The base body includes a bottom wall having a side wall extending upwardly therefrom defining a base cavity. The data storage device is positioned within the cavity. A fire resistant insulation material is positioned within the base cavity to encapsulate the data storage device. The base cap is coupled with the base body to enclose the data storage device within the enclosure base. The insulation material may be in intimate contact with the data storage device, or in contact with a moisture barrier surrounding the data storage device, wherein the insulation material acts as a heat sink for said data storage device to draw heat away from the data storage device to maintain a temperature of the data storage device within an acceptable operating range.

  • Patent number: 8544648
    Abstract: A system for stacking fire-resistant archive boxes on top of one another is provided. Each of the archive boxes comprise an outer shell, an inner shell disposed within the outer shell, a drywall support shell, and a lid. The inner shell has an opening defining a storage compartment, and is spaced apart from the outer shell defining a cavity therebetween. The inner shell includes a bottom wall and side walls. The drywall support shell is disposed within the cavity and surrounds a substantial portion of the inner shell. The lid is configured to be disposed over the opening in the inner shell to selectively enclose the storage compartment. The drywall support shell of the upper archive box is substantially aligned with the drywall support shell of the lower archive box whereby the lower archive box is supportive of the upper archive box.

  • Patent number: 7748797
    Abstract: A multi-drawer file cabinet having an upper cabinet that may be stacked on top of a lower file cabinet is provided. The lower cabinet includes a top surface having a peripheral edge with a first perimeter. The upper cabinet includes a base with a sidewall. The sidewall has a peripheral edge with a second perimeter. The second perimeter is larger than the first perimeter so that the sidewall fits around the peripheral edge of the top surface of the first cabinet. The cabinets include an extendable drawer assembly having a pair of slide members slidably positioned between a pair of outer tracks formed in a casing and tracks formed in a drawer frame. Furthermore, a locking assembly is associated with a recess in the casing and a ledge of a drawer head to allow the drawer assembly to remain in a locked position even if the cabinet sustains fire damage.

  • Publication number: 20090108988
    Abstract: A system and method for administrating access to an interior compartment of a safe is provided. The safe includes a locking mechanism for locking and unlocking a safe door, and a lock interface including a biometric sensor, a keypad, and a memory. The interior compartment of the safe may be accessed using primary and secondary identification sequences, and primary and secondary unique identifying features. The manager initiates the safe using the pre-established master sequence and administrates the number of secondary users permitted to access the interior compartment of the safe. The pre-established master sequence may also be used to delete all identification sequences and unique identifying features that are stored in the lock interface. A key lock operates as a threshold or secondary lock that controls whether the primary and secondary identification sequences, and primary and secondary unique identifying features, may be used to unlock the locking mechanism.

  • Publication number: 20040140235
    Abstract: A carousel device for storing at least one gun in a generally upright position is provided. The device generally includes a base and a upper support section and a generally upright pole member positioned therebetween. The base has an upper surface with at least one recess formed therein where the recess includes an outer contact portion for contacting a butt of the gun. The upper support section has a receiving portion defined in the outer circumference thereof for receiving a barrel of the gun. The upright member has a longitudinal axis and is positioned between the base and the upper support member. The distance between the outer contact portion and the longitudinal axis is less than the distance between the receiving portion and the longitudinal axis, which allows the gun to be stored in a generally upright position on the carousel device.
