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.

The present disclosure provides an intelligent lock. In an embodiment, the intelligent lock includes: a lock body having a lock hole; a lock lever, the lock lever being capable of being plugged into and being unplugged out of the lock hole of the lock body; a first restricting member movably provided inside the lock body, and capable of being moved and latched into the lock hole to restrict the plugging of the lock lever into the lock hole or the unplugging of the lock lever out of the lock hole; a second restricting member movably provided inside the lock body, and capable of being abutted against the first restricting member so as to restrict a movement of the first restricting member; a detecting device provided in the lock body, and configured to detect the plugging operation of the lock lever into the lock hole or the unplugging operation of the lock lever out of the lock hole and to send a detection signal; and a main control element communicatively connected to the detecting device, and configured to determine a locking state of the intelligent lock in accordance with the detection signal sent by the detecting device.

A securing device is provided. The securing device includes a body, a cover, a lock core, and a fastener. The cover is pivotally connected to the body. The cover is capable of rotating to a closed position or an open position with respect to the body. The lock core is disposed in the body or on the cover. When the lock core is in a locked state, at least a portion of the fastener is capable of inserting into the body from a side of the body, and the lock core restricts the fastener from leaving the body.

An exemplary mounting bracket is configured for releasably securing a bicycle lock to a bicycle, and generally includes a housing, a pair of opposing arms, a pinion, a latch, and a manual actuator. The arms are movably mounted to the housing for movement between inward positions and outward positions, and each arm includes a rack gear. The pinion is engaged with each rack gear and correlates movement of the arms such that the arms move with one another between the outward positions and the inward positions. The latch has a latching position in which the latch is operable to maintain the arms in the inward position, and has an unlatching position in which the arms are free to move from the inward position to the outward position. The manual actuator is operable to move the latch between the latching position and the unlatching position.

The invention provides a lock body having a keyway and a throughbore parallel to the keyway with the throughbore having two portions separated by a shoulder. A first cable passes through the throughbore, the first cable having a knob at one end and a chevron at a second end. A second cable depends from and is attached to the lock body. The cable body also has a bolt that is biased partially into the first portion of the throughbore. The keyway has a plug that is rotatable with the proper key to retract the bolt from the throughbore. The chevron can pass by the bolt in an axial first direction by urging the chevron and allowing the taper to move the bolt transversely against the bias, but not in a second axial direction. A base accommodates the lock body and cables and is captured by the second cable.

A folding lock comprises a folding plate assembly, a lock seat, a fixing sleeve, a lock core seat, a lock core, a connecting swivel, a lock column, and a fixing collar. A fixed folding plate of the assembly is provided with a connecting seat, the lock seat is disposed on the connecting seat and provided with an insertion hole, an inlay protrudes from the insertion hole, the fixing sleeve inserts into the connecting seat and disposes in the lock seat, the lock core disposes in the lock core seat, the connecting swivel is assembled on the lock core seat, a torsion spring disposes between the lock core seat and the connecting swivel, the lock column is assembled on the connecting swivel, a compression spring is sleeved on the connecting swivel and the lock column, and the fixing collar is disposed in the fixing sleeve.

A vehicle equipment seal device includes a main body portion, a bolt portion, a metal wire connection portion and a lock structure. The main body portion has a connection surface. The bolt portion is inserted into the main body portion. The metal wire connection portion has one end fixed on the connection surface of the main body portion, and the other end provided with the bolt portion. The lock structure is arranged in the main body portion, wherein the lock structure includes a motor and a sensor, and the sensor is used to position a turning position of the motor, thereby determining whether the lock structure locks the bolt portion or unlocks the bolt portion.

One variation of a self-locking tie cord includes a) a linear series of a plurality of nodules coupled together by a connective stem; b) a lock, coupled to one end of the connective stem, including a planar opening and configured to allow a nodule from the series of nodules to pass through the planar opening in a first direction orthogonal to the planar opening or a second direction orthogonal to the planar opening and opposite to the first direction only when the nodule applies a sufficient force to the planar opening.

An example lock apparatus includes a shackle including an engagement portion, and a lock head operable to selectively engage the engagement portion to thereby retain the lock apparatus in a closed condition. The lock head includes a housing, a slider, and a detent mechanism. The slider is mounted for sliding movement relative to the housing between a first position and a second position. One of the first position or the second position is a closed position in which the slider prevents removal of the engagement portion from the lock head, and the other of the first position or the second position is an open position in which the slider permits removal of the engagement portion from the lock head. The detent mechanism is configured to selectively resist movement of the slider from the first position.

A security device can include a clip allowing the security device to be attached to clothing, bags or other accessories without the need for a separate holster or carrier. The security device can be readily transported without the need for a separate holster or carrier.
