A locking cap having a push button reset and method for operating the locking cap having a push button reset are disclosed. The locking cap with a push button reset system is a deterrent to keep medications in the correct hands.

A zipper lock has two locking members to secure two zipper pulls of a suitcase and a control plate to cause the locking member to disengage from the zipper pulls. The lock has a latch engaged with the control plate, the latch positionable in a first latch position when the lock is in a locked mode or in a second latch position to open the lock. The lock has a combination mechanism using dials and clutches to control the movement of a spindle which allows the latch to move the second latch position when the arrangement of the dials matches the correct combination code. The lock also has a key-overriding mechanism using a cylinder to cause the movement of the latch when a correct key is used to turn the cylinder to open the lock. A recovery mechanism allows a user to recover the lost combination code.

The present disclosure is directed to a combination lock including a housing configured to lockingly receive a locking link. The lock includes a plurality of outer dials and a plurality of inner dials, each selectively coupled to a corresponding outer dial. A spindle is positioned radially internal to the inner dials. A multiplier link is pivotably connected between the spindle and a locking bolt. Some forms of the combination lock include a tactile feedback mechanism and/or a combination reset mechanism.

A portable lock apparatus is adaptable to readily transform between a single cable loop configuration or a double cable loop configuration, and incorporates a locking mechanism permitting selective release and securement of one or more cable ends to achieve either configuration. The lock apparatus may secure multiple components, particularly, when in the double cable loop configuration, thereby removing the need for multiple locks for securing a single article.

A chain lock includes a lock body having a first closure part, a second closure part, and a combination locking mechanism that is aligned along a lock axis. The chain lock having a bolt selectively locked to the lock body by the combination locking mechanism. The lock body has a chain connection part permanently connected to the bolt via a chain. The combination locking mechanism having a plurality of rotatable code setting rings arranged between the first and second closure parts. At a first end the lock body has at least one first fastening pin that engages through the housing sleeve into an annular groove of the chain connection part. At a second end the lock body has at least one second fastening pin that engages through the housing sleeve into the second closure part of the lock body and that fixes the second closure part to the housing sleeve.

A padlock comprising a lock body, a combination mechanism to control the movement of the cam-spindle vertically, a key mechanism to control the movement of the cam-spindle rotationally, more than one clutch that is mounted in the cam-spindle which controls the vertically movement of the cam-spindle, wherein the cam-spindle is configured to control the locking and unlocking of the combination mechanism, and wherein more than one dial is mounted in the lock body, a locking bolt contacts the shackle, and the shackle has a long leg and a short leg with a bolt-receiving-cutout.

A keyed or combination cable lock for securing one or more cables or a lock shackle is presented. The lock secures one or both ends of a single cable or one end each of two separate cables when locked. Alternatively, the lock can secure one or both ends of a lock shackle. When the lock is unlocked, the secured ends can be removed from the lock by activation of a control knob. The lock is also able to a secure a section of a single slidable cable or two sections of a single slidable cable so that the lock can be slid down the slidable cable[s] in first direction when the lock is locked or unlocked, but the lock can be slid down the slidable cable[s] in the opposite direction only when the lock is unlocked and a control knob is activated.

An exemplary lock apparatus generally includes a shackle, a crossbar, a lock device, a first bolt, and a trigger. The lock device has a locked state in which the lock device retains a spindle in a spindle locking position, and an unlocked state in which the lock device does not prevent movement of the spindle to a spindle unlocking position. The first bolt is engaged with the spindle such that movement of the spindle between the spindle locking position and the spindle unlocking position drives the first bolt between a first locking position and a first unlocking position. The trigger is movably mounted in the crossbar for movement between an engagement position, in which the trigger maintains the spindle in the spindle unlocking position, and a disengagement position, in which the spindle is operable to move to the spindle locking position.

A dual locking padlock having a code locking mechanism and an overriding mechanism is disclosed. The housing has a top body as its top portion, a stack of dials and a stack of clutches mounted on a middle portion and a bottom portion having holes to receive screws from the top body for securing the housing. Dials are engagingly mounted on the clutches and only rotatable relative to the clutch when the lock is in the opened mode for changing the combination code. The housing has a spindle having a channel to store the heel of a shackle. The spindle's upward movement allows the shackle to be pulled upward to unlock the padlock. The spindle is allowed to move upward either when a correct combination code is used or when a key activates the overriding mechanism. With the overriding mechanism, the padlock can also be opened with a key.

A lockable enclosure includes a housing and an access door assembled with the housing and movable between a closed position and an open position. A latch is carried by the access door and is slideable along a first axis between a door latching and a door releasing position. A plurality of dials are carried by the access door and rotatable about a post extending along a second axis. When each of the plurality of dials is rotated to an unlocking orientation, an outer peripheral recess on each of the dials aligns with a corresponding dial engaging portion of the latch, allowing the latch to slide along the first axis from the door latching position to the door releasing position.
