[0002] Locks refer to devices that seal things, including locks, keys and their accessories. They are generally interpreted as "seals that can only be opened with a key". In addition to being opened with a key, locks can also be opened with commands such as light, electricity, magnetism, sound and fingerprints. Locks are not only protective equipment, but also have the functions of "management" and "decoration".

[0003] Among them, the crank lock is the most common type of lock, also known as the hand crank lock. It is generally composed of a lock body, a lock tongue, a crank handle and other parts, and can be divided into two types: single torsion spring type and double torsion spring type. This type of lock has the advantages of small footprint and high protection level, so it is widely used in industrial cabinets, engineering machinery and equipment, communications, medical technology, refrigeration, food industry, environmental technology and rail locomotives.

[0004] However, the existing crank locks have the following disadvantages:
