An operating means of locking/unlocking any one of the locks is provided to enable persistent use of a common latch disposed at an identity opening of a safe proper.

A padlock basic kit for assembling a padlock in a configuration that can be selected from a plurality of configurations, wherein the configurations differ with respect to the type of lock cylinder used in the padlock and optionally additionally with respect to the type of closing hoop used in the padlock, comprises a lock body, at least two different lock cylinder adapters, and a closing plate. In this respect, a first one of the at least two lock cylinder adapters has a reception passage that is configured to receive a lock cylinder of a first type and a second one of the at least two lock cylinder adapters has a reception passage that is configured to receive a lock cylinder of a second type. The lock body has a lock cylinder receiver that extends along a longitudinal direction into the lock body and that is configured to selectively receive the first lock cylinder adapter with a lock cylinder of the first type inserted therein, the second lock cylinder adapter with a lock cylinder of the second type inserted therein, or a lock cylinder of a third type. The closing plate is configured to close the lock cylinder receiver such that it substantially completely covers a respective lock cylinder received in the lock cylinder receiver.

A hoop lock including a shackle and a crossbar, with the shackle having a pair of legs extending from a body portion, and each of the legs having a foot including a tip with a non-circular cross-section. The cross-bar includes a housing having a pair of foot-receiving openings and a pair of tip-receiving openings substantially aligned with foot-receiving openings. The tip-receiving openings are configured to matingly engage the tips such that the tips are rotationally coupled to the housing.

There is provided a lock which can include a shackle which can be moved between an unlocked configuration and a locked configuration. A locking mechanism can be carried by the lock. The locking mechanism can include a guard which can be actuated in a manner such that an access region can be defined to facilitate movement of the shackle such that the shackle can be moved to be in an unlocked configuration. The guard can also be actuated in a manner so as to block the access region to impede movement of the shackle when in the locked configuration such that the shackle is maintained in the locked configuration.

A portable electronic lock comprises a lock body and at least one securing part, in particular a U hoop or a bolt, that can be selectively locked to the lock body or released from the lock body. The lock body further comprises a first introduction opening and a second introduction opening for introducing a respective section of the at least one securing part into the lock body; an electromechanical locking device that has a first latch and a second latch, a cam rotatable about an axis of rotation and an electric motor for driving the cam; and a control circuit. The first latch can be displaced by means of the cam from an unlocked position into a locked position in which the first latch engages into the first introduction opening in order to lock the at least one securing part in the first introduction opening, and the second latch can be displaced by means of the cam from an unlocked position into a locked position in which the second latch engages into the second introduction opening in order to lock the at least one securing part in the second introduction opening. The control circuit is configured to control the electric motor to drive the cam.

A lock having an alarm function for a two-wheeler comprises a lock body and a securing hoop movable relative to the lock body between a securing position for securing the two-wheeler and an open position for releasing the two-wheeler. The lock body has a locking mechanism to selectively lock the securing hoop to the lock body in the securing position, and further comprises an alarm device for outputting an alarm signal. The locking mechanism can selectively be moved into an unlocked position, a locked position, or an alarm activation position, with the securing hoop being released for a movement into the open position in the unlocked position, with the securing hoop located in the securing position being locked at the lock body in the locked position, and with the alarm device being activated or being able to be activated by moving the locking mechanism into the alarm activation position.

A lock assembly includes a lock element, and a lock housing including a receptacle for receiving therein the lock element. The lock housing includes a lock device that in a locked configuration is in locking engagement with the lock element and in an unlocked configuration is not in locking engagement with the lock element.
