Attached Figure Description

[0015] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the handcuff-shaped lock according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0016] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the lock case.

[0017] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the disassembled structure of the outer shell.

[0018] Figure 4 A schematic diagram of the lock body after removing the lock shell. Detailed Implementation

[0019] The embodiments of this utility model will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings:

[0020] As shown in the figure, a handcuff-shaped lock includes several lock rings 1 that are hinged end to end in sequence, and a lock body. The lock body includes a lock shell 2, a lock cylinder 3, and a bolt 4 elastically installed in the lock shell 2. The end of the lock cylinder 3 is linked to the bolt 4. The end of the lock ring 1 engages with the bolt 4. The lock shell 2 is provided with a push block 5 elastically installed and abutting against the front end of the lock ring 1. This technical solution, by setting the push block elastically installed in the lock shell, allows the elastic preload provided by the push block to allow the lock ring to immediately exit from the lock shell when the bolt disengages from the lock ring when the key is inserted for unlocking, eliminating the step of manually pulling out the lock ring. In addition, when the lock ring is inserted into the lock shell, the lock ring first overcomes the elastic preload of the bolt, and then the bolt rises under the action of the elastic preload and engages with the lock ring hook. It has the advantages of simple structure and convenient operation.

[0021] The locking ring 1 has at least three sections, but can have three, four, or five sections. In this embodiment, the locking ring has four sections, which allows for a much greater unlocking angle than a two-section locking ring, resulting in better practicality and adaptability to more scenarios.

[0022] The lock housing 2 is provided with a first sliding groove 6 above the lock cylinder 3 for sliding installation of the push block 5. A spring seat 7 is provided at the end of the first sliding groove 6. A first elastic element 8 is provided between the spring seat 7 and the push block 5 to abut against each other. The first elastic element is a spring. The push block can slide laterally in the first sliding groove under force.

[0023] The first sliding groove 6 has guide grooves 9 on its upper and lower inner walls, and the push block 5 has guide blocks 10 on its upper and lower surfaces that are adapted to the guide grooves 9. The guide blocks slide in the guide grooves, and the guide grooves are straight to ensure the straight sliding of the push block.

[0024] The lock housing 2 is fitted with an outer shell 11. The outer shell 11 has a dust cover 12 at the position where the key is inserted into the lock cylinder 3. The cover can slide up and down to cover the lock cylinder and prevent dust from entering.

[0025] The outer casing 11 is provided with a key insertion port 13. The outer casing 11 is provided with a second sliding groove 14 for the cover plate 12 to slide up and down at the inner side of the insertion port 13. The cover plate 12 is provided with elastic support feet 15 on both sides. The second sliding groove 14 is provided with a stop groove 16 on both side walls. The elastic support feet on both sides of the cover plate are embedded in the stop groove by the elasticity of the material itself, which plays a positioning role.

[0026] The lock housing 2 has a third sliding groove 17 at the front end of the lock cylinder 3 for sliding installation of the bolt 4. A second elastic element 18 is provided between the lower end of the bolt 4 and the inner wall of the lock housing 2 to abut against each other. The second elastic element is a spring, which provides elastic preload for the bolt to slide in the third sliding groove.

[0027] The front end of the lock cylinder 3 is provided with an eccentrically positioned paddle 19, and the bolt 4 is provided with a linkage groove 20 for the paddle 19 to be inserted. The linkage groove 20 is open on one side, and the size of the linkage groove 20 is larger than the size of the paddle 19. When the lock cylinder is rotated by the key, the eccentrically positioned paddle can drive the bolt to move downward through the linkage groove. When the paddle moves upward vertically, the bolt will also move upward under the action of the second elastic element.

[0028] Each locking ring 1 is fitted with a silicone sleeve 21 on its outer surface for protection.
