Abstract
A lock system is configured to secure a container, and is mounted in a door between inner and outer walls. An electromechanical lock device is received in the door, where the electromechanical lock device includes a housing, a locking bolt arranged in the housing and movable between locked and unlocked positions, a motor operable to actuate a motor cam to move between blocked and unblocked positions, and a slider that engages the motor cam and the locking bolt, where the slider engages the motor cam in the blocked position and moves away from the locking bolt in the unblocked position so that the locking bolt is unlocked, allowing the door to open for accessing the inside of the secure container.
Claims26
An electromechanical lock device comprising:
- a housing including an opening;
- a locking bolt arranged in the housing and movable between a locked position in which the locking bolt is projected through the opening and an unlocked position in which the locking bolt is retracted in the housing;
- a motor mounted in the housing, the motor being operable to actuate a motor cam to move from a blocked position to an unblocked position;
- and
- a slider configured to engage the motor cam and the locking bolt in the blocked position of the motor cam preventing the locking bolt from moving from the locked position, and the slider is configured to be moved by the locking bolt when the motor cam is actuated to the unblocked position,
- wherein the locking bolt is configured to move to the unlocked position when the slider is moved by the locking bolt,
- wherein the motor cam moves the slider to engage the locking bolt when the locking bolt is in the locked position and the motor cam is actuated from the unblocked position to the blocked position.
A lock system comprising:
- a door configured to secure a container, the door including an inside and an outside;
- and
- an electromechanical lock device mounted to the door, the electromechanical lock device comprising:
- a housing including an opening;
- a locking bolt arranged in the housing and movable between a locked position in which the locking bolt is projected through the opening and an unlocked position in which the locking bolt is retracted in the housing;
- a motor mounted in the housing, the motor being operable to actuate a motor cam to move from a blocked position to an unblocked position;
- and
- a slider configured to engage the motor cam and the locking bolt in the blocked position of the motor cam preventing the locking bolt from moving from the locked position, and the slider is configured to be moved by the locking bolt when the motor cam is actuated to the unblocked position,
- wherein the locking bolt is configured to move to the unlocked position when the slider is moved by the locking bolt,
- wherein the motor cam moves the slider to engage the locking bolt when the locking bolt is in the locked position and the motor cam is actuated from the unblocked position to the blocked position.
