Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of door lock technology, and in particular to a lock body mounting structure. Background Technology
[0002] A door lock is a type of hardware installed on a door to maintain the security of a room or personal storage space. Its basic structure includes a latch that can extend and retract under external force, which works in conjunction with a strike plate mounted on the door frame to prevent the door from being opened by wind or other unexpected circumstances.
