A lock assembly () includes a first member () and a second member () including complimentary shaped protrusions () and recesses () that mate with one another. A locking assembly is housed in the first member (). The locking assembly includes an electromechanical actuator () with a shaft () and a locking element () arranged to move along the shaft () between a locked position and an unlocked position. The locking element () is formed with a recess. In the locked position, a locking bolt () passes through both first and second first member ()s and a latch member () is received in the notch () but is not received in the recess of the locking element () so that the locking element () prevents movement of the latch member () and the locking bolt (). In the unlocked position, the latch member () is received in the recess of the locking element (), thereby permitting movement of the locking bolt ().

Electromechanical lock assembly

A multipoint lock including a locking mechanism adapted to selectively retract and extend at least one locking element relative to an elongate housing, wherein the locking mechanism includes an arm pivotally attached to a lock actuator and constrained to travel in a channel formed in a linkage device linked to the at least one locking element, and wherein in a first position of the lock actuator, the arm is at a first limit of travel in the channel and is pivoted in a first angular direction with respect to the lock actuator so as to be geometrically locked at the first limit of travel.

Enhanced extendable multipoint lock

A lock ( ) comprising a lock body ( ) defining a top surface ( ) and a bottom surface ( ), the lock body ( ) having a bore ( ) formed therein extending from the top surface ( ) to a location spaced from the bottom surface ( ), a key-operated lock cylinder ( ) located in the bore ( ) and having a keyway opening ( ) facing the bottom surface ( ), a key entry aperture ( ) being formed in the bottom surface ( ) for permitting insertion of a key therethrough into engagement with the keyway opening ( ) of the cylinder ( ) and being sized so as not to permit the cylinder ( ) to pass therethrough, a shackle ( ), a locking mechanism located in the lock body ( ) and being operated by the lock cylinder ( ) for locking the shackle ( ), characterized by a multifunctional lock top protector element ( ) mounted onto the top surface ( ) of the lock body ( ), the multifunctional lock top protector element ( ) being apertured to accommodate the shackle ( ) and to surround at least a portion thereof, the multifunctional lock top protector element ( ) overlying the bore ( ) so as to prevent access to the cylinder ( ) from the top surface ( ), the shackle ( ) and the multifunctional lock top protector element ( ) being configured such that when the shackle ( ) is locked by the locking mechanism, the shackle ( ) locks the multifunctional lock top protector element ( ) in engagement with the top surface ( ) of the lock body ( ) and in overlying relationship with the bore ( ).
