A padlock presents a straight shackle axially slidable in seats provided in two wings obtained in the padlock body, so as to be capable of closing a U-shaped recess defined by the said wings. The shackle is locked in its closure position by a latch pin the movement of which is controlled by the rotation of a cylinder of a cylinder lock of known type, housed in the padlock body. An armour jacket made of steel is vested onto the side surface of the padlock body, thus conferring to the padlock a protection against attempts of breaking open. The said armour jacket also serves for closing the bores for the pin tumblers and the bore for housing the latch pin, and of any other bore made in the side surface of the padlock body for housing the components of the padlock mechanism.
A safety lock-set is provided which includes a main body, a socket and a bushing. The heat-treated socket is used not only to close off the lock-pin hole of the main body, but also to form a skirt for the spring and the back end of the latch. The heat-treated bushing is provided to sleeve over the connecting area of the set bar and the latch from the lock barrel side. The socket and the bushing connect together with a respective curved notch on each one, to form a closed connecting sleeve to protect the connecting areas of the latch and the spring and the set bar, in order to prevent someone from drilling through the lock-set.
The lock body of a motorcycle disk brake lock has a first side, a second side adjacent to the first side, and an open slot of a predetermined depth and extending into the lock body, which is divided into a first portion and a second portion in which a locking device is disposed. The locking device is provided centrally with a locking bolt. When the locking device is in an unlocking state, the locking bolt is located at a first position. When the locking device is in a locking state, the locking bolt is located at a second position. The first portion is provided with an open end adjacent to the open slot and located in a locking hole coaxial with the locking bolt. The first portion is provided with at least one through hole having one end joining obliquely with the locking hole and having another end located in the side which is not adjacent to the open slot.
A lock device includes a body having a lock core mounted therein and a first hole. A casing is securely mounted around the body. The casing includes a second hole in alignment with the first hole of the body. A first side of the casing includes a rectangular slot defined therein and a side slot in communication with the rectangular slot. A hollow guiding member is securely attached to a second side of the casing and has a through hole in alignment with the first and second holes. The guiding member includes a non-linear guiding slot defined in a periphery thereof, the non-linear guiding slot including a section which extends in a direction having an angle with a longitudinal axis of the first and second holes. A latch rod extends through the first and second holes. The latch rod includes a first enlarged end located on the first side of the casing and a second end having a pin hole therein, a spring mounted therearound and adjacent to the first enlarged end thereof, an annular recess defined in a mediate portion thereof, and a guiding pin slidably mounted in the guiding slot, the guiding pin being partially received in the pin hole and extending beyond the guiding slot.
A padlock, having a substantially U-shaped lock body (1), a shackle (2) moveable back and forth between a locked position and a free position, connected in its locked position to both branches (1a,1b) of the lock body and one end (2b) of which extending through one of the branches (1b) of the lock body. The lock body (1) is provided with a lock mechanism (3) operated with a key (5) and bolt means (7) connected to the lock mechanism for locking the shackle (2) to the lock body (1). In addition, supported to said end (2b) of the shackle (2) extending through one of the branches (1b) of the lock body there is a lever element (11), which is transversal with regard to the shackle (2) and is turnable relative to the lock body (1).
Methods and apparatus for releasably locking or blocking a door combine a first element with that door for blocking the door in an extended position of that first element and for alternatively releasing the door upon movement of the first element from such extended position. The first element is releasably blocked in its extended position by removably locating a second element in a path of movement of the first element. The door may be locked by locking the first element in its extended position and blocking such locked first element with the second element. The locked first element is released by selectively removing the second element from the path of movement of the first element, and the door is released by moving the released locked first element in its path of movement while the second element is removed from such path of movement. The first element may selectively be unlocked while it is blocked by the second element, and such blocked unlocked first element may be removed for a release of the door. The first element may be provided with an anisometric configuration against movement despite a removal of the second element from the path of movement of the first element. Alternatively, the first element may be permitted in a second orientation at its anisometric configuration to move upon removal of the second element from its path of movement.
