Zusammenfassung:A magnetic lock system for an enclosure includes a receiver disposed within the enclosure and a locking mechanism coupled to an interior surface of the enclosure. The locking mechanism includes a mounting plate coupled to the interior surface of the enclosure, a latch rotatable around a pivot axis and configured to engage the receiver in a locked orientation, a tension device coupled to the latch and configured to exert a force on the latch to maintain it in the locked orientation, and a magnet coupled to the latch. The magnet is configured to interact with a magnetic key to overcome the force of the tension device and transition the latch to an unlocked position. The mounting plate and the latch are pivotably connected to each other via a pin associated with the pivot axis.
