PADLOGK Filed Jan. 10, 1930 J1 gwwmto'n M 6mm Patented Mar. 6, 1934 UNITED STATES PATENT OFFICE Application January 10,
14 Claims.
My invention relates to padlocks of the type having a pin tumbler locking mechanism wherein the movable element of the shackle is carried by the tumbler plug or barrel and rotated therewith when the key is turned to open the shackle.
The invention aims to provide a strong, simple padlock having a combined body and shackle made in two complementary parts. A further aim is to make the major portion of the body and the major portion of the shackle in a single piece the better to withstand the abuse and shocks of service.
Other aims and advantages of the invention appear in the following description of the illustrative embodiment shown in the accompanying drawing, wherein Fig. 1 is a perspective view showing the padlock in open position;
Fig. 2 is a cross-section on the line 22 in Fig. 4, showing the parts in closed and locked position;
Fig. 3 is a similar view showing the key inserted and the barrel moved axially to free the shackle and permit it to be rotated; and
Fig. 4 is a side view of the body portion of the padlock, showing it in locked position.
Referring to'the drawing, the body is made in two parts, the larger portion 10 contains the tumblers and barrel or plug 11 to which the smaller relatively movable portion 12 is secured by a pin 13 or other suitable means. The barrel is slotted lengthwise to form a groove 14 to take the key, the shape of the groove being conformable to that of the key, as is usual in pin and tumbler locks.
The body portion 10 is also provided with three or more holes or pin chambers 15 extending transversely of the slot 14 to receive the spring pressed drivers 16. The plug or barrel is also drilled with holes normally in alinement with those in the body to receive the ends of the drivers and the pins 17, as shown in Fig. 2. Upon inserting the key 18 in the groove 14 the pins are driven outwards until they have moved the drivers to clear the barrel, as shown in Fig. 3. A further push on the key moves the barrel and portion 12 of the body axially, as shown in Fig. 3, until the flange 19 seats in the bottom of the recess 20, and disengages the studs 21, 22, from the corresponding recesses 23, 24, in the body 12 and shackle 25 integral therewith, ready to be turned to open the shackle portion 26, the drivers 16 being held depressed in this position by the wall of the chamber in which the plug 11- is mounted. Obviously other detent means than the studs 21, 22 and recesses 23, 24 may be employed and my invention is not limited to the details of these parts.
If the shackle member 26 should be sprung away from the mating shackle member 25 so as to 1930, Serial No. 419,915
disengage the stud 22 from the recess 24, the stud 21 would still remain in engagement with the recess 23 and thereby prevent turning the shackle. This arrangement relieves the drivers 16 from much of the strain that the shackle may be subjected to, and strengthens the holding power of the padlock.
For many purposes a padlock having one shackle member integral with the body of the lock is a decided advantage, and the side opening movement where little strain can come on the barrel and tumblers is also advantageous.
The axis of the chamber containing the plug or barrel 11 extends parallel, in the embodiment shown, to the plane in which the shackle members lie and transversely of the body 10 with respect to the direction of the extension of the shackle therefrom. Accordingly the relative rotation of the parts 10 and 12 about the axis of the barrel 11 is in a plane transverse to the plane of the shackle.
Such a barrel and pin tumbler lock construction permits of series of locks being arranged to be opened by the same master key and grand master key, as is well understood in the art.
The invention is not restricted to the shapes and dimensions of the parts as shown; but what it is desired to secure by Letters Patent is as follows: a
