The invention relates to an electronic padlock cover with a knob, wherein the padlock includes a rotor assembly formed by an electronic cylinder joined in continuity to an electronic knob, a body wherein the cylinder and a padlock ring are housed, wherein the cover includes a protective casing of the body intended to surround and protect the body of the padlock on one end, a support with a ring-shaped configuration including two grooves and an extension, centered on each groove, which includes a pair of first holes for the introduction of corresponding fastening screws for fastening to the body of the padlock and a protective casing of the knob including two flanges located in correspondence with the grooves, including an inner cylindrical opening for the housing of the knob.

The disclosed invention relates to a padlock comprising a U-shaped-shackle. The invention discloses a sleeve that fits tightly, mostly covering or surrounding a portion of the straight portion of the shackle-toe and wherein the sleeve also fits loosely and mostly covering or surrounding a small portion of the U-shaped-shackle-head nearest the shackle-toe. The sleeve being designed to deter a jawed manual bolt-cutting tool from cutting apart the shackle-toe of a padlock that comprises a U-shaped shackle. The sleeve also being designed large enough to be prevented from being pulled through the hole, staple, or link the padlock shackle is secured therein, therefore, mandating the shackle-toe remains in the hole, staple, or link the shackle-toe is secured therein. After cutting the shackle-heel or the shackle-head apart and wherein a portion of the U-shaped shackle-head remains attached to the shackle-toe, the disclosed invention sleeve will remain secured in place on the shackle-toe as any curved portion of the shackle-head will not allow the sleeve to slide off of its position on the shackle-toe, therefore, the padlock remains locked and secured in place.

A wafer padlock has a lock body, a limiting wafer, multiple locking wafers, and a shackle. The limiting wafer and the locking wafers are arranged in the lock body at spaced intervals. One of two ends of the shackle is selectively engaged with the lock body, and the other one of the two ends of the shackle is inserted in the lock body and extends through the limiting wafer and the locking wafers. The wafer padlock is unlocked by inserting a key into at least one key hole formed in the lock body. There is no need to turn the key and no need to enter code numbers one by one. Unlocking of the wafer padlock is quick and convenient. The wafer padlock has simple structures and high security for locking items.

A padlock is provided that can be locked and unlocked using a combination mechanism or a key mechanism. A padlock includes clutches that will not be turned during the lock mode or the open mode. A lock body has more than one slot to engage an extended fin of the clutch in the lock mode. An opening slot and faulty notches are located in each of the dials. In the lock mode, the turning of the dials will have no effect on the clutches. Each extended fin of the clutch is engaged in a slot of the lock body in the lock mode. The faulty notches on the dials are clearer and an intruder cannot feel the correct opening slot by turning dials to pick the combination.
