Abstract:
An exemplary status-indicating locking assembly includes a cylindrical lock assembly and a status-indicating assembly. The status-indicating assembly includes a sensor configured to sense the status of the cylindrical lock assembly, a transmission configured to communicate the lock status to at least one side of a door, and an indicator configured to display indicia relating to the lock status on the at least one side of the door. In certain forms, the sensor, transmission, and indicator may be electronic, mechanical, hydraulic, magnetic, or combinations thereof.

Claim (Index 40):
A status-indicating lockset, comprising:\n a lock control assembly having a first control state and a second control state, wherein one of the first and second control states is an unlocked state, and the other of the first and second control states is a locked state; a lock operator operable to transition the lock control assembly between the first control state and the second control state; and a status-indicating assembly comprising:\n a sensor having a first sensor state and a second sensor state; \n an indicator operable to selectively display a first indicia and a second indicia; and \n a transmission operably coupling the sensor and the indicator; \n wherein the sensor is associated with the lock control assembly such that the sensor has the first sensor state in response to the first control state, and has the second sensor state in response to the second control state; and wherein the transmission is configured to cause the indicator to display the first indicia in response to the first sensor state, and to cause the indicator to display the second indicia in response to the second sensor state.
