| 发明名称 | Lock assembly | ||
| 摘要 | A lock assembly (10) including an orientation sensor (26) and at least one component operable in two modes (32). The orientation sensor (26) is adapted to indicate at least two orientations of the orientation sensor (26). The at least one component (32) is operable in a predetermined one of the at least two modes responsive to an indication of one of the at least two orientations from the orientation sensor (26) and is operable in a predetermined other of the at least two modes responsive to an indication of the other of the at least two orientations from the orientation sensor (26). | ||

| 主权项 | 1. A lock assembly operable in both a right-handed door and a left-handed door, said lock assembly comprising: an orientation sensor adapted to indicate at least two spatial orientations of the orientation sensor; and at least one component operable in at least first and second modes, the at least one component being operable in the first mode for use in the right-handed door in response to an indication of one of the at least two spatial orientations from the orientation sensor before or during installation of said lock assembly and being operable in the second mode for use in the left-handed door in response to an indication of the other of the at least two spatial orientations from the orientation sensor before or during installation of said lock assembly; wherein the indication of one of the at least two spatial orientations from the orientation sensor is automatic without actuation of the lock assembly. | ||
