Abstract: A plug-in device system has a closure unit blocking access to a first plug-in device element, for example a socket. The closure unit includes a rotary bezel which is coupled via a coupling to at least one shutter such that the rotation of the bezel effects a movement of the shutter from a closed position in an open position. Preferably, a locking assembly is additionally provided, which blocks movement of the rotary bezel and/or shutter in the closed position as long as no pressure is applied to the shutter. In addition, a safety device can be provided, which prevents the shutter from opening when a direct force is applied.

Abstract: A port assembly is receivable in an opening allowing access to the interior of a transformer. The port assembly includes a body and a port cover. The body is receivable in the opening and has a substantially axial opening therethrough. The axial opening allows access to the interior of the transformer through the port. The port cover is disposed on the interior of the transformer and is movable relative to the body between a sealed position sealing the axial opening and an open position allowing access to the interior of the temperature well. The port cover is biased toward the sealing position and moves to the open position upon being acted upon by an elongate tool inserted into the temperature well through the axial opening in the port.

Abstract: Systems, methods, and devices that efficiently control the operating state of an electromagnetic lock under power on and power off conditions are presented. A lock component includes a solenoid component (e.g., bi-stable latching solenoid) that holds a lock pin in a locked or unlocked position without using power to hold the lock pin in the desired position, and using power to transition from one position to another position. A sensor component senses when power to the lock component will be lost, and if the lock pin is not in the desired position for the power off condition, the lock pin can be transitioned to the desired position, and if the lock pin is in the desired position for power off condition, the lock component can maintain the lock pin in the desired position, while the lock component is in the power off condition.

Abstract: A hard disk drive filler (HDD filler) that is detachably installed in a case is disclosed. The HDD filler has a frame body, a pivot axis, and a rotating device; wherein the frame body defines a bottom surface and a top surface which corresponds to the bottom surface. The pivot axis is disposed in the frame body. One end of the rotating device is pivoted to the pivot axis, such that the rotating device can rotate due to gravity to stay within or be partly exposed to the frame body. If the frame body is installed into the case while the bottom surface is upward, the rotating device rotates along the pivot axis and is guided by gravity such that part of the rotating device is exposed to the frame body to stop the installation.

Abstract: A latching and locking mechanism for a door includes a locating pin passing through a portion of a door frame and a handle.

Abstract: This invention relates to a security system aimed at closing and locking a cover of an opening of a tank trailer to avoid any tampering of its content and to prove that the content of the tank has not been tampered. The security system comprises a locking member movable between a lock position to prevent the opening of the cover, and an unlock position to allow the opening of the cover. The invention also comprises an actuating device mounted to the tank trailer operatively connected to the locking member for moving it between the lock and the unlock positions. A sealing mechanism engages the actuating device when the locking member is in the lock position to prevent any movement of the locking member. The sealing mechanism comprises a breakable indicator which is broken upon disengagement from the actuating device, thereby indicating that the openable cover has been tampered with.

Abstract: An opening and closing apparatus (52, 54) opens and closes an opening and closing lid (10) which closes an opening part (4) of an accommodating box (2) for accommodating an object (W) to be processed and is locked by a locking mechanism (12). A key member (26) is mounted to a base table (90) via a bearing mechanism (92) in a state in which the key member is rotatable with respect to the base table (90) and movable in a vertical direction with respect to a front surface of the base table (90). A part of the opening and closing lid (10) is held by being put between the key member (26) and an elastic member (98) provided on a front surface of the base table. Thereby, the opening and closing lid (10) is prevented from being displaced with respect to the base table (90) when the opening and closing lid (10) is removed from the accommodation box (2).
