A plurality of similar locks, operated by different keys can be interchangeable, and can be used with a plurality of containers, on a random basis, such as for safes in a hotel.
Description
- This invention relates to an establishment with a plurality of locking systems and, more particularly, to locking systems in which the lock is removable from the safe or other security device.
- British Patent Application No. 8427022 discloses a safe suitable for installation in hotel rooms and the like including a container provided with a hinged door, a key hole in the door and a bracket on the interior surface of the door adapted removably to mount a lock for the safe, a key hole in the lock being located in register with the key hole in the door when the lock is mounted by the bracket.
- The arrangement disclosed in British Patent Application No. 8427022 requires the door of the safe to be open while the lock is being accommodated in the bracket which is on the inside face of the door, and requires the key to be removed from the lock because the key needs to approach the outside face of the door before being put in the key hole of the door and hence into the key hole of the lock. This can increase the likelihood of the key being lost. Also the arrangement disclosed in Specification No. 8427022 makes it necessary for the door of the safe to be in the open position while the lock is being accommodated in the bracket or removed therefrom.
- According to the present invention there is provided an establishment comprising a plurality of locking systems, each locking system comprising:
- a container with an aperture;
- a closure member which may be moved so as to close the aperture;
- a hole for accommodating a lock;
- a lock locatable in the hole; and
- the arrangement being such that, with the actuating means being in a position to actuate the lock, the lock may be introduced into the hole whereupon, with he closure member closing the aperture, suitable operation of the actuating means not only causes the lock to secure itself with respect to the container or the closure member or to an element associated with either thereof, but also causes the closure member to be locked with respect to the container:
- The locking systems of the establishment of the present invention can take various different forms.
- A first form of locking system for an establishment in accordance with the present invention comprises:
- a container with an aperture;
- a closure member which may be moved so as to close the aperture;
- a hole in a front face of the closure member for accommodating a lock; the hole being away from the edge of the closure member;
- a lock locatable in the hole; and
- actuating means for actuating the lock between a locked mode and an unlocked mode;
- the arrangement being such that, with the actuating means being in a position to actuate the lock, the lock may be introduced into the hole perpendicularly or substantially perpendicularly to the front face whereupon, with the closure member closing the aperture, suitable operation of the actuating means not only causes the lock to secure itself with respect to the closure member or to an element associated therewith, but also causes the closure member to be locked with respect to the container.
- A second form of locking system for an establishment in accordance with the present invention comprises:
- a container with an aperture;
- a closure member which may be moved so as to close the aperture;
- a hole at an edge region of the front face of the closure member, for accommodating a lock;
- a lock locatable in the hole; and
- actuating means for actuating the lock between a locked mode and an unlocked mode;
- the arrangement being such that, with the actuating means being in a position to actuate the lock, the lock may be introduced into the hole in a direction parallel to the front face whereupon, with the closure member closing the aperture, suitable operation of the actuating means not only causes the lock to secure itself with respect to the closure member or to an element associated therewith, but also causes the closure member to be locked with respect to the container.
- A third form of locking system for an establishment in accordance with the present invention comprises:
- a container with an aperture;
- a closure member which may be moved so as to close the aperture;
- a pocket provided on the container or closure member for accommodating a lock;
- a lock locatable in the pocket; and
- actuating means for actuating the lock between a locked mode and an unlocked mode;
- the arrangement being such that, with the actuating means being in a position to actuate the lock, the lock may be introduced into the pocket whereupon, with the closure member closing the aperture, suitable operation of the actuating means not only causes the lock to secure itself with respect to the pocket, but also causes the closure member to be locked with respect to the container.
- The closure member of the locking system of the establishment of the present invention, and this also applies to the first, second and third forms of locking system, may be a door which is pivotably mounted with respect to the container or may be a drawer which can be slid into and out of the container.
- The actuating means of the locking system of the establishment of the present invention, and this also applies to the first, second and third forms of locking system, may be in the form of a key which is removable from the lock or may e in the form of a combination system which remains permanently associated with the lock.
- In the first form of locking system the hole is preferably a slot, which is non-circular, so that a non-circular portion of the lock may fit into the slot and be prevented from rotation with respect thereto, whilst another portion of the lock, which is also non-circular, passes through the hole and, upon actuation of the lock, can be caused to engage the container or engage another member which engages the container.
- The lock of the second form of locking system can have a hole in the form of a non-circular slot provided at an edge region of the closure member, there being provision to prevent rotation of the lock with respect to the closure member.
- In the third form of locking system of the establishment according to the present invention the pocket may be, but it is not necessarily, in the container and the arrangement may be such that, with the lock in the pocket, actuation of the lock causes one or more member to project from the lock so as to secure the lock within the pocket and also to secure the closure member with respect to the container.
- As has been made clear above, with the locking system of the establishment of the present invention, the actuating means for actuating the lock can be in such a position as to actuate the lock whilst the lock is being accommodated in the hole which is intended to receive it. This is in contrast to the arrangement disclosed in British Patent Application No. 8427022 and has the advantage that the actuating means, if it is to be separated for security reasons from the lock, does not need to be separated until the lock is in position in the hole and the lock has been actuated so as to cause the lock to be secured in its proper location and the closure member closed with respect to the container. Moreover, when the actuating means is a key which can be removed from the lock once the lock is in its correct position and has been actuated into the locking mode, the relationship between the key and the lock can be such that with the lock in the unlocked mode the key cannot be withdrawn from the lock, and withdrawal of the key from the lock is possible only when the key has been turned to the appropriate position by which time the lock is in the locked mode. Again, this provision reduces the likelihood of the loss of the key between, for example, the time that the lock and key are handed by the reception desk staff of a hotel to a guest and the time that the guest has put his valuables in a safe in his bedroom and locked the safe.
- When the guest departs from the hotel, he returns the lock and key to the reception desk and the same lock and key can be used for a further guest but in a different room, on a random pattern, thereby providing a good degree of security.
- It is possible for part of the lock of the locking system of the establishment of the present invention to secure the lock with respect to the container or closure member and also to secure the closure member with respect to the container; alternatively, part of the lock, upon suitable actuation, may cause another element, such as a dead bolt, to achieve the locking between the closure member and the container. In this last-mentioned case the same part of the lock can secure the lock itself to the closure member or container.
- For a better understanding of the present invention and to show how the same may be carried into effect, reference will now be made, by way of example, to the accompanying drawings, in which:
- Figure 1 is a perspective view of a standard lock and its associated key;

- Figure 22 is a perspective view of the hole in the closure member for accommodating the lock of Figures 19 and 21;
- Figure 23 is a front view of a lock in position in a pocket provided in a container and showing a closure member, all being part of a further embodiment of a locking system of an establishment in accordance with the present invention; and
- Figure 24 is a perspective view of the lock shown in Figure 23 being inserted into the pocket.
- Referring first to the embodiment illustrated in Figures 1 to 7, Figure 1 shows a lock generally indicated by
reference numeral 1 and a key generally indicated byreference numeral 2. The key and lock are of a standard design, such as that made by Lowe & Fletcher Limited, of Bilston, West Midlands. The lock has an annular recess 3 for receiving the key, but in the illustrated embodiment the key can only be introduced into, and withdrawn from, the recess 3 when thekey 2 is in one particular orientation with respect to thelock 1 by virtue of theprojection 4 on the key 2 needing to cooperate with the cut-away 5 adjacent the annular recess 3. Figure 2 is similar to Figure 1 except that thekey 2 is now inserted in thelock 1. Also the arrangement shown in Figure 2 is provided with alock cam 6 which is rotatable in response to actuation by thekey 2. Thelock cam 6 is elongate and corresponds to, but is slightly smaller than, ahole 7 through which thelock cam 6 may be passed. - The
lock cam 6 is not planar, and an intermediate region of thecam 6 is secured by anut 8 to thelock spindle 9. Secured against rotation with respect to the main body of thelock 1 is aprojection 10 which is non-circular and which has two parallel sides which can fit between the two parallel sides of thehole 7. Theprojection 10, when located in thehole 7, can prevent any rotation of the main body of thelock 1, whilst thelock cam 6 on thespindle 9 is free to rotate upon suitable actuation by thekey 2. - Referring now to Figures 4 and 5, there are shown a hinged
door 11 for closing an aperture of acontainer 12. Mounted on the back of thedoor 12 is abracket 13 which serves as a guide for adead bolt 14 which is urged to the right (in Figures 4 and 5) by the action of atension spring 15. Thedead bolt 14 has anabutment face 16, the arrangement being such that when thelock 1 is being fitted to thedoor 11, thecam 6 is vertically disposed as it passes through the verticallydisposed hole 7 in the door. When thelock 1 has been moved in towards thedoor 11 as far as it will go, and with theprojection 10 snugly accommodated in thehole 7, turning of the key 2 in the appropriate direction causes rotation of thespindle 9 and hence of thecam 6 with the result that the cam acts on theabutment face 16 of thedead bolt 14 so as to cause thedead bolt 14 to be moved to the left (in Figures 4 and 5), against the action of thespring 15. The result of this leftward movement is as shown in Figures 6 and 7. Thelock 2 is secured now with respect to thedoor 11 by virtue of thecam 6 no longer being able to pass through thehole 7, and also thedoor 11 is secured with respect to thecontainer 12 by virtue of the fact that thedead bolt 14 is now secured behind part of thecontainer 12. Although the action of thespring 15 is now greater on thedead bolt 14, the latter is prevented from returning to its original position by thecam 6. At this stage the key 2 can be withdrawn from the lock so as to leave the locking system in the locked mode. Thebracket 13 has only been shown in outline in Figures 4, 5 and 6 and has, for the sake of clarity, been omitted in Figure 7. A suitable general form of bracket is shown with regard to a later embodiment. - Turning now to the embodiment illustrated in Figures 8 to 13, this is similar in many respects to the embodiment illustrated in Figures 1 to 4. In the arrangement shown in Figures 8 to 13, the
lock 21 is shown in situ in a hole (like thehole 7 in Figure 2) in adoor 22. Securely mounted on the rear face of thedoor 22 is abracket 23 shown most clearly in Figure 10. The bracket serves as a guide for thedead bolt 24 which can be moved to the left (in Figure 12) by thelock cam 25 against the action ofsprings 26. The bracket has a first raisedportion 27 which is higher than a second raisedportion 28. This is because the first raised portion needs to accommodate the innermost part of thelock 21, whereas thesecond portion 27 merely needs to accommodate the reciprocatingdead bolt 24. Thebracket 23 is also provided in the region of itsfirst portion 27 with ahole 29 for accommodating thenut 30 and the rearmost portion of thespindle 31, and thebracket 23 is also provided withflanges 32 by which the bracket may be secured to the rear of thedoor 22. - Turning now to the system illustrated in Figures 14 to 18, the lock generally indicated by the
reference numeral 41, instead of being introduced into a hole away from the edge of the door, as is the case with the embodiments described in detail herein above, is introduced into aslot 42 provided in an edge region of thedoor 43. Theslot 42 is generally rectangular in form as is also the rearmost part of thelock 41. Thedoor 43 is secured between inner andouter flanges lock 41. Whilst thedoor 43 is in the open position thelock 41 may be freely moved into and out of theslot 42. However, with thelock 41 fully in theslot 42, when thedoor 43 is closed, so as to close thecontainer 46, thecontainer 46 prevents removal of thelock 41 from theslot 42. Suitable actuation of thelock 41 causes adead bolt 47 of the lock to project and to become positioned behind part of thecontainer 46, as is shown in Figure 18, thereby preventing any relative movement between thedoor 43 and thecontainer 46. - Regardless of whether the
lock 41 shown in Figures 14 to 18 merely relies on a combination or on a key, it is to be appreciated that the whole lock, together with the key when one is required, can be moved as one entity into theslot 42 of thedoor 43. This minimises the loss of any components by, for example, a guest staying in a hotel. - In a different embodiment of the locking system illustrated in Figures 19 to 22 a
lock 51 is located in adoor 52 which has asuitable hole 53. Located on the rear of thedoor 52 adjacent thehole 53 is astop 54. - The rear of the lock is generally circular in cross-section but is provided with three
projections 55, only two of which are shown. Theprojections 55 can pass through corresponding cut-aways 56 adjacent thehole 53; that part of the lock bearing theprojections 55 can be rotated so that theprojections 55, instead of being opposite the cut-aways 56, are opposed to regions of the door adjacent thehole 53, thereby preventing withdrawal of thelock 51 from thedoor 52. Excess rotation of theprojections 55 is prevented by means of thestop 54. - Actuation of the
lock 51, in addition to causing rotation of the component carrying theprojections 55 also causes the projection from a rearmost part of thelock 51 of adead bolt 57, which can then secure the door 52 (in which thelock 51 is securely located) to a container (not shown) to be closed by thedoor 52. Thelock 51 illustrated in Figure 19 is of the type requiring actuation by a key and, as with other types of lock already described which require the use of a key, the lock, with the key in position, can be inserted into thehole 53, without the need for prior removal of the key. - With regard to the embodiment illustrated in Figures 23 and 24, the lock of this particular locking system in accordance with the present invention is generally indicated by the
reference numeral 61. The lock can be dropped into its correct position in spaced-apart pockets 62, 63 provided in an edge region of a container 64 having anaperture 65 to be closed by a door (not shown). Mounted on the front face of thelock 61 arebuttons 66 carrying different indicia, in this case numerals, and visible on, and capable of projecting from, one side face of thelock 61 is a plurality ofdead bolts 67. - When it is desired to secure valuables in the safe, the hotel guest can drop the
lock 61 into thepockets 62, 63, place his valuables in the safe, close the door of the safe, and then set a suitable combination on thelock 61 by pressingsuitable buttons 66. Then when the lock is actuated thedead bolts 67 project from thelock 61 and engage in corresponding recesses in an edge region of the door (not shown). The projection of the dead bolts not only secures the door with respect to the container, but also prevents removal of thelock 61 from the container 64 and its associatedpockets 62,63. Only by correctly pressing the right combination ofbuttons 66 are thedead bolts 67 caused to retreat into thelock 61, thereby freeing the door to be opened and thereby permitting the lock to be removed.
