Abstract: A device can include a door member mounted to a swinging door, a connector, and a fastener. The door member can include a slot open at the top and bottom and an outer face. A bore through the door member can align with a bottom of the slot. A first end of the connector can slide into the top of the slot so a first leg extends through the outer face and a second leg overlaps the soffit. When a fastener is in a first position, the fastener can extend through a bore in the door member and support the connector in the slot and block the connector from exiting the slot through the bottom. When the fastener is in a second position, the fastener does not block the slot and the connector is permitted to drop out of the slot through the bottom.

Abstract: A secured medicines dispensing device for controlling access to medications includes a housing. A plurality of slats that is coupled to and extends between an annular wall of the housing to define a plurality of compartments. Each of a plurality of lids is positioned in a top of the housing and biased to an open configuration. A power module, a microprocessor and transmitter are coupled to the housing. A screen, which is touch-enabled, and a scanner configured to read a fingerprint of a user are coupled to the top of the housing. The microprocessor is operationally coupled to the power module. The transmitter, the screen, and the scanner are operationally coupled to the microprocessor. A plurality of locks is operationally coupled to the microprocessor. Each lock is coupled to a respective lid and selectively couplable to the housing to secure the lid in a closed configuration.

Abstract: An attractive, light, portable, stand-up box that is scratch resistant, fireproof and water-tight. It adapts plastic material for casing combined with a metallic hinge. It includes a coded lock that is complemented by a deadlock position for additional safety. Its surface has a sawtooth structure that acts as a rib for strength and resists scratching as well as providing an esthetic look. An extra bar or other feature can keep the lid leveled at around 110 degrees when open, while two extra large feet enable the box to stand vertically open or closed. A waterproof seal resides in a groove around the lid to prevent water penetration (for example in a fire). An alkaline cement with embedded air bubbles injected into the walls provides fireproofing without adding too much weight.

Abstract: A method of constructing a secure enclosure body is disclosed. The method comprises providing a molded plastic shell body incorporating a mesh reinforcement; coupling a mould to the molded plastic shell to define a cavity between the mould and the molded plastic shell; inserting concrete into the cavity; and removing the mould when the concrete has sufficiently set to provide a secure enclosure body.

Abstract: A lock assembly is formed from a two-piece plastic unit that is held together and to the compartment door by a planar lanced metal spring. The latch projection is ramped relative to the latch retainer slot within the compartment door to cause the latch piece to become jammed within the retainer slot in the event the door is subjected to severe internally-generated gas pressures.

Abstract: An improved vault door having a daylock and a relock mechanism is disclosed. The door is selectively locked and unlocked within a frame of the vault by operating a pair of combination locks mounted to the door front to slide a lock bar mounted to the rear of the door. The daylock mechanism includes a spring biased member which engages a cavity in a daylock extension attached to the lock. This engagement holds the lock bar in the unlocked position so the door may be swung within the frame without the lock bar impacting the frame. A keylock mounted in the front of the door may be turned to withdraw the member from the cavity so the lock bar can be slid to secure the door in the frame. The relock mechanism includes a pivotably mounted bar held in a horizontal position by a pin mounted to an attack plate that is displaceably mounted to a mounting plate on the rear of the door.

Abstract: A bank containing a coin receiving base portion and a detachable top portion containing a battery operated locking system. Such system contains an electromagnetic coil lock for locking together the two portions. A switch responsive to placement of the top portion on the base portion for opening a circuit to de-energize the coil lock so as to lock the portions together. A coin slot switch is also provided to temporarily light a lamp upon dropping of a coin. A mercury switch is also provided to prevent opening of the bank when inverted.A coin sensor is also provided on the top portion for allowing the coil lock to be activated to enable the removal of the top portion when the sensor senses the coin receiving base portion being sufficiently filled with coins.

Abstract: A security cabinet of metal construction having first and second series of locking members inside of and adjacent respective opposite side edges of the cabinet door. An electrically operable latching device maintains the cabinet door in a locked closed position. For unlocking the door, an electronic control device is provided including a disguised control panel mounted on the outer face of the door and being electrically connected to the latching device. The disguised control panel has a visually hidden array of switches thereon arranged so that a predetermined preselected sequence of actuation of the switches effects actuation of the latching device for movement thereof from a latched position to an unlatched position for permitting retraction of locking members by manual movement of the handle on the door to thereby permit the door to the cabinet to be opened.

Abstract: An improved safe bolt mechanism characterized by: slide bolts coupled to an inner surface of the safe's door by an elongated channel member; guide bars intespaced with the slide bolts and guided by the channel member for movement perpendicular to the slide bolts; elongated, bent cam rods journaled within apertures provided in the slide bolts and connected at their ends to successive guide bars; and a lockable bolt actuating mechanism for moving the guide bars within the channel member and thus extending or retracting the slide bolts due to the interaction of the cam rods and the slide bolts. Each of the slide bolts is individually locked by the cam rods to make forced entry into the safe more difficult. Optional locking pins attached to the guide bars can engage transverse bores provided in the slide bolts to lock the individual slide bolts even more securely.
