Abstract:
1. A multifunctional locking device comprising: a housing; a servomotor in the housing; an actuator; an interchangeable reel in the housing, the reel defining a reel axis, the reel being driven about the reel axis by the servomotor; a sliding sheath including an end; and a funnel-shaped combining head at the end of the sliding sheath, wherein the actuator acting as first fixing point, comprises two comb-like sections to thrust when the sections are forced to assemble opposed and staggered, outside the housing, at a distance from the housing, the sections become rigid whenever forced to go through the funnel-shaped combining head at the end of the sliding sheath, each actuator section comprising an optical fiber and a multipolar cable for distance monitoring, the actuator being windable around the reel, the reel acting to wind up the actuator onto worm screw grooves and; a circuit in the housing, the circuit being driven about the reel axis by the servomotor, the circuit being configured to receive a signal from the optical fiber of one of the actuator sections and transmit the received signal in a wireless manner, whereby the multifunctional locking device is both a source of motion and a locking and monitoring device when connected to an object and an opposing point.
