Abstract

An inductively coupled electronic lock system wherein the key has a clock driven variable pulse width generator with alterable pulse sequence input to an inductor. The lock part of the system has an inductive pick-up which discriminates against all but a preselected sequence of pulses, converts the received signals to DC and powers a motor to open the lock.
