Claim 2:
3. A wirelessly-controlled jamb-mounted access control system, comprising:
a housing configured for installation in a doorjamb;
a lock body at least partially inside the housing and rotatable about a first axis between locked and unlocked positions, wherein the first axis extends parallel to the door jamb, and wherein the lock body includes inner and outer sidewalls that define a latch cavity configured to receive a latch tongue of a door;
an arm located within the housing and rotatable between a first position and a second position, in the first position, the arm engages the lock body and maintains the lock body in the locked position, and in the second position, the arm disengages from the lock body, wherein the arm rotates between the first and second positions about a second axis extending orthogonally to the first axis;
a rotary actuator including a shaft rotatable about a third axis, the third axis extending orthogonally to the first axis and the second axis;
a linkage system coupling the shaft to the arm, the linkage system configured to rotate the arm between the first position and the second position in response to rotation of the shaft, wherein the linkage system includes a first link member engageable with the arm, a second link member movably coupled to the first link member, and a cam member extending radially outward from the shaft and movably coupled to the second link member, the cam member configured to translate the second link member and the first link member along a fourth axis in response to rotation of the shaft, the fourth axis extending parallel to and laterally offset from the first axis;
a controller located within the housing and in electrical communication with the actuator, the controller configured to control the rotation of the shaft in response to a signal from an external device; and
a power source in the housing and configured to provide power to the actuator and the controller;
wherein the lock body includes a first opposing portion defining the inner sidewall, and rotatable about a pin inside the housing, the pin defining the first axis, and the lock body includes a second opposing portion defining the outer sidewall, and rotatable about the pin concurrently with the first opposing portion, wherein the first and second opposing portions extend away from the first axis by different first and second amounts.
