Definitions

  • the invention relates to a padlock consisting of a housing, one Locking device arranged in the housing, one movably guided in the housing Shackle and a shackle lock operated via the locking device.
  • Such padlocks are known from the prior art.
  • a U-shaped Bracket is arranged, with its two legs in the closed position in the housing engages and where there is the possibility of the bracket in the open position with one leg to pull out of the housing and around to rotate the second leg remaining in the housing relative to the housing.
  • the locking device is present in these known padlocks for example from a locking cylinder with its longitudinal axis is arranged parallel to the legs of the bracket in the housing and has at its end in the housing a first locking element, which is rotatable via a key to move second locking parts, the in turn lock the bracket and thus represent the bracket lock.
  • the Bolt parts are positively connected to each other to rotate of the key and thus the cylinder in the locking cylinder in a linear movement to implement the locking parts engaging in the bracket.
  • padlocks which have an arcuate section have trained stirrups over a limited path is movably mounted in a housing in its longitudinal axis direction.
  • the coat hanger is directly connected to the locking device, so that a movement a key inserted into the locking device the bracket unlocked and moved to the open position at the same time.
  • padlocks are also known that can be swiveled have arranged on the housing bracket, the pivoting movement in the open position is released.
  • the invention has for its object to develop a generic padlock while maintaining the usual security features to the effect that the padlock can be easily formed with conventional lock cylinders.
  • the locking device has a preferably interchangeable locking cylinder with a conventional radial projection, which can be moved as part of the shackle lock using a key between a closed position and an open position and in the closed position blocks the movability of the shackle relative to the housing.
  • a padlock according to the invention has a conventionally designed one Lock cylinder, which consists of a housing in which the cylinder and the tumblers are arranged, with a radial projection over the cylinder Is movable, the mobility of the bracket relative in the closed position locks to the housing.
  • Padlock therefore not necessary via the lock cylinder to adjust locking parts arranged at the end in such a way that a rotary movement of the lock cylinder into a linear movement of the Bolt parts is implemented. This allows complex components within the Padlock can be saved due to their exact training are complex to manufacture.
