The invention discloses a
gear transmission type mechanical anti-theft lock, and relates to the field of mechanical anti-theft locks. The
gear transmission type mechanical anti-theft lock is characterized in that a key hole and a
handle rotating shaft are horizontally arranged, a key is formed by connecting a plurality of pinions in series, each
pinion is a complete gear or an incomplete gear or has zero teeth, and the key drives each rack to run for different distances through an intermediate gear. After the key is rotated by a circle, a
handle drives a
cam to push a
locking plate to be inserted into sawteeth of the racks firstly, the racks cannot move any more, the
cam pushes an unlocking inserting plate to be inserted into rectangular openings of the racks, and the
cam continues to rotate to achieve unlocking. If the key is incorrect, the
locking plate still clamps all the racks and cannot move, but the unlocking inserting plate cannot be inserted into the rectangular openings, so that the cam is prevented from continuously rotating, and the lock cannot be unlocked; if the
handle is strongly twisted, the handle idles; and the lock is locked only needing to reversely lift the handle without the key. The mechanism is simple in structure, low in manufacturing cost and easy to install, and the lock has the characteristics of technical unlocking prevention, damage unlocking prevention, large secret key amount, stability, durability and the like.
