Remote Control Unlocking and Locking System

摘要

A portable, temporary removable system for locking and unlocking a door knob, door lever or locking deadbolt without the requirement of using keyed entry. Several manners of automated locking and unlocking are introduced and the instant system is designed for quick installation and removal. Once attached, the system may be remotely controlled from the outside of the door via a pattern of knocks, via electronic communications or a combination of a knock pattern and electronic communication.

主权项

1. A system for controlling a standard door knob or door lever comprising:
an electronics container comprising electronic components; a servo motor mounted via a slot to a servo tension arm and aligning with the rotational axis of the rotational lock mechanism; a microcontroller that controls the behavior of said servo motor and other electronic components; a piezo knock detector converting vibrations resulting from pressure on a structure; a knock sensitivity adjustment knob used to filter out background vibrations; an audio mode switch controlling the generation of audio tones to communicate failed or successful access attempts; a programming switch allowing user input and storage of new knock patters into the internal memory; a rotational direction switch controlling the servo motor's rotation; and a USB port mounted on the surface of the system to allow for software updates.
