Universal electromechanical strike locking system

A door locking system for a door having one or more bolts, comprising an opening opposite to each of the bolts in the door, each said opening having a receiver, an opening in each receiver adapted to receive a respective bolt, a strike moving horizontally within each said receiver between a first position in which a bolt cannot swing out of said receiver through said receiver opening and a second position in which a bolt can swing out of said receiver through said receiver opening, means to move the strike in a horizontal motion, electronic means comprising a controller, and means to activate the door locking system by moving each said strike between its first and second position, said system further comprising a lip, affixed to each said strike, adapted to guide a latch bolt to slide over each strike into the receiver and means to adjust the position of the lip on each strike.

A door locking system for a door having one or more bolts, comprising an opening opposite to each of the bolts in the door, each said opening having a receiver, an opening in each receiver adapted to receive a respective bolt, a strike moving horizontally within each said receiver between a first position in which a bolt cannot swing out of said receiver through said receiver opening and a second position in which a bolt can swing out of said receiver through said receiver opening, means to move the strike in a horizontal motion, electronic means comprising a controller, and means to activate the door locking system by moving each said strike between its first and second position, the system further comprising sensor means adapted to sense the presence of a dead bolt in the receiver.

A door locking system for a door having one or more bolts, comprising an opening opposite to each of the bolts in the door, each said opening having a receiver, an opening in each receiver adapted to receive a respective bolt, a strike moving horizontally within each said receiver between a first position in which a bolt cannot swing out of said receiver through said receiver opening and a second position in which a bolt can swing out of said receiver through said receiver opening, means to move the strike in a horizontal motion, electronic means comprising a controller, and means to activate the door locking system by moving each said strike between its first and second position, the system further comprising electronic means adapted to determine which of the receivers and strikes are associated with dead bolts and which of the receivers and strikes are associated with latch bolts.

A door locking system for a door having one or more bolts, comprising an opening opposite to each of the bolts in the door, each said opening having a receiver, an opening in each receiver adapted to receive a respective bolt, a strike moving horizontally within each said receiver between a first position in which a bolt cannot swing out of said receiver through said receiver opening and a second position in which a bolt can swing out of said receiver through said receiver opening, means to move the strike in a horizontal motion, electronic means comprising a controller, and means to activate the door locking system by moving each said strike between its first and second position, the system further comprising calibration control means adapted to enable a user to set the position of the strike within its receiver for the first position and the position of the strike within its receiver for the second position and store that information in the memory of said controller for remembering said first position and said second position.

A door locking system for a door having one or more bolts, comprising an opening opposite to each of the bolts in the door, each said opening having a receiver, an opening in each receiver adapted to receive a respective bolt, a strike moving horizontally within each said receiver between a first position in which a bolt cannot swing out of said receiver through said receiver opening and a second position in which a bolt can swing out of said receiver through said receiver opening, means to move the strike in a horizontal motion, electronic means comprising a controller, and means to activate the door locking system by moving each said strike between its first and second position, wherein the means to move each said strike within its receiver is an electromechanical actuator, which moves each said strike between its first and second positions in both directions, the system further comprising fault tolerance control means adapted to always return the strike to its preset first or second positions if forces other than that of the actuator shift the position of the strike within the receiver.

A door locking system for a door having one or more bolts, comprising an opening opposite to each of the bolts in the door, each said opening having a receiver, an opening in each receiver adapted to receive a respective bolt, a strike moving horizontally within each said receiver between a first position in which a bolt cannot swing out of said receiver through said receiver opening and a second position in which a bolt can swing out of said receiver through said receiver opening, means to move the strike in a horizontal motion, electronic means comprising a controller, and means to activate the door locking system by moving each said strike between its first and second position, the system further comprising sensor means to sense the presence of each dead bolt in a receiver, means to automatically move each said strike associated with a respective dead bolt from its second position to its first position when said sensor means senses the presence of a dead bolt in its respective receiver.

A door locking system for a door having one or more bolts, comprising an opening opposite to each of the bolts in the door, each said opening having a receiver, an opening in each receiver adapted to receive a respective bolt, a strike moving horizontally within each said receiver between a first position in which a bolt cannot swing out of said receiver through said receiver opening and a second position in which a bolt can swing out of said receiver through said receiver opening, means to move the strike in a horizontal motion, electronic means comprising a controller, and means to activate the door locking system by moving each said strike between its first and second position, the system further comprising sensor means to sense the presence of each dead bolt in a receiver, means to automatically move each said strike associated with a respective dead bolt from its first position to its second position when said sensor means does not sense the presence of a dead bolt in its respective receiver.

A door locking apparatus for a door having one dead bolt and one latch bolt, comprising a receiver, openings in the receiver adapted to receive both bolts, a strike, having a stepped plate, moving horizontally within said receiver between a first position in which both said bolts cannot swing out of said receiver through their corresponding receiver openings, a second position, in which both said bolts can swing out of said receiver through their corresponding receiver openings, and a third position in which said dead bolt can swing out of said receiver through its corresponding receiver opening but said latch bolt cannot swing out of said receiver through its corresponding receiver opening.

A door locking system for a door having one dead bolt and one latch bolt, comprising an opening opposite to the bolts, said opening having a receiver, openings in said receiver adapted to receive each said bolt, a strike having a stepped plate moving horizontally within said receiver between a first position in which both said bolts cannot swing out of said receiver through their corresponding receiver openings, a second position, in which both said bolts can swing out of said receiver through their corresponding receiver openings, and a third position in which said dead bolt can swing out of said receiver through its corresponding receiver opening but said latch bolt cannot swing out of said receiver through its corresponding receiver opening, means to move said strike in a horizontal motion, electronic means comprising a controller, and means to activate the door locking system by moving each said strike between its first, second and third positions.
