Abstract:
A lock and method of locking a lockable volume is described. The lock may be located on a door of a lockable volume, such as a locker configured to hold an item. The lock may comprise a post and a cam, the cam having an opening corresponding to the size and shape of the post. The cam is rotatable about an axis, wherein the rotation of the cam about the axis releasably secures the post within the opening, thereby locking the door to which the post is attached.

Claim (Index 16):
A method of operating a lock mechanism, comprising:\n moving a shaft in a piston between a retracted position and an extended position, wherein said movement produces a force; transferring the force through a plurality of linkage members to a rotatable cam configured to receive and secure a member of a lock structure in a locked position, wherein the member of the lock structure is received by the rotatable cam when the cam is in a first position; and rotating the rotatable cam, in response to receipt of the transferred force, into a second position which secures the member of the lock structure in the locked position.
