Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lock technology, and in particular to a chain lock with a double steel cable. Background Technology

[0002] Chain locks can be used to secure two-wheeled vehicles, especially bicycles. Due to the flexibility of the chain and the adaptability of the shape of the formed ring, chain locks can secure two-wheeled vehicles to fixed objects in various situations to prevent theft or unauthorized riding.

[0003] Most chain locks use a purely mechanical key mechanism for locking and unlocking, which is structurally insecure. Furthermore, few of these chain locks have electronic alarm functions, making them vulnerable to forced entry by criminals in unattended environments. They neither alert the user nor deter criminals, resulting in relatively poor anti-theft performance. With technological advancements, chain locks with electronic alarms have emerged, providing better security by emitting an audible alarm. However, these electronic alarms are typically controlled by a remote control, requiring frequent battery replacements and leading to higher maintenance costs and a poorer user experience.
