Abstract

The present invention relates to a padlock comprising a lock body; a U-shaped lock hoop that has a circular cross-section, that is displaceably held at the lock body between a closed position and an open position, and that has a first hoop limb and a second hoop limb that is longer than the first hoop limb; and a locking device in the lock body for locking the lock hoop to the lock body in the closed position of said lock hoop. The locking device comprises at least one latch element and can be adjusted between a locked position, in which the latch element engages into an engagement recess in the closed position of the lock hoop, said engagement recess being formed in a flank of the second hoop limb facing the first hoop limb, and an unlocked position in which the latch element is located outside the engagement recess. In the second hoop limb, a peripheral groove is formed which is located closer to the free end of the second hoop limb than the engagement recess and into which the latch element engages in the open position of the lock hoop. The second hoop limb has a passage that extends between the free end of the second hoop limb and the peripheral groove and that has a surface that is recessed with respect to the circular cross-section of the lock hoop. The second hoop limb receives a blocking element between its free end and the peripheral groove, said blocking element projecting over the recessed surface of the passage in order to prevent, in the open position of the lock hoop, a passing of the latch element through the passage, starting from the peripheral groove.

Abstract

A portable electronic lock comprises a lock body and a securing part that is movable relative to the lock body between a closed position and an open position. The lock body comprises an electromechanical locking device that has an electric motor, an entrainer, a rotating latch, a return spring, a blocking mechanism, and a control circuit for controlling the electric motor. The rotating latch can, starting from a locking position, be driven by the entrainer against the force of the return spring into an unlocking position in which the securing part is unlocked for a movement into the open position, wherein the entrainer is rotated back into a starting position again utilizing a rotational clearance. The blocking mechanism first blocks the rotating latch in the unlocking position against a return movement. By moving the securing part from the open position into the closed position, the blocking mechanism can be released to trigger an unblocking of the rotating latch and thus a relaxing of the return spring so that the rotating latch is mechanically driven by the return spring to make a return movement into the locking position.

Abstract

A portable electronic lock comprises a lock body and a securing part that is movable relative to the lock body between a closed position and an open position, wherein the lock body comprises an electromechanical locking device that has an electric motor having a rotor, a latch coupled to the rotor, and a control circuit. The latch can be electrically driven by means of the electric motor from a locking position, in which the securing part located in the closed position is locked to the lock body, into an unlocking position in which the securing part is released for a movement into the open position. A mechanical driving of the latch can be effected by a moving of the securing part from the open position into the closed position, with the latch being drive-effectively coupled to the rotor of the electric motor such that the mechanical driving of the latch effects a forced rotational movement of the rotor. The control circuit is configured to detect the forced rotational movement of the rotor.

A padlock comprises a lock housing, a U-shaped shackle and a cylinder in order to selectively lock the shackle on the lock housing, wherein the cylinder has a cylinder axis and is secured on the lock housing by means of a securing element. The securing element is mounted on the cylinder so as to be displaceable and spring back transversely to the cylinder axis, wherein the securing element engages with a securing opening on an inner face of the lock housing in order to secure the cylinder on the lock housing.

Abstract

A padlock for securing and monitoring a switch of an industrial installation has a lock housing which is composed of plastic, and also a clip which is displaceably held on the lock housing, and a locking cylinder which is arranged in the lock housing and can selectively be moved from an open position to a locked position in order to lock the clip to the lock housing. An RFID transponder is arranged in the lock housing. A securing and monitoring system for a switch of an industrial installation comprises at least one padlock of this kind and a mobile RFID reader or an RFID reader which is permanently mounted in the area surrounding the switch, said RFID reader being designed to read the RFID transponder of the padlock.

Abstract

The invention relates to a padlock having a lock body and a shackle having two shanks which each have a respective groove for the reception of a respective part region of a locking element, wherein - a pin which can be acted on by a lock cylinder core to make a rotational movement is provided for the movement of the locking elements into their locking position, - the pin, which is in particular biased by a spring into its locking position, has at least one engagement element for the cooperation with at least one entrainer formation of the lock cylinder core. In this respect, a blocking plate is provided between the pin and the lock cylinder core, which is fastened in the lock body and which has an opening through which the entrainer formation of the lock cylinder core projects into the plane of the engagement element with an assembled padlock, with the opening being designed such that, on the one hand, a rotational movement of the lock cylinder core is possible and, on the other hand, a marginal region of the opening forms an abutment for the entrainer formation restricting the rotational movement of the lock cylinder core.
