A key and lock device comprises a key having a first electronic circuit and a lock having a second electronic circuit. The key and the lock store secret information, some of which is unique for each device. The key and the lock exchange a random number through connectors and perform a calculation in the respective circuitry based on the random number and secret information. An electrical blocking mechanism is moved to a non-blocking position if a comparison of the calculations in the circuits gives the correct result.

Key and lock device

A cylinder lock comprising a lock body (1) and inside it a rotatable lock cylinder (2) enclosing a number of locking discs (4;6) turnable by the key (3) of the lock and provided with a peripheral notch (8) determining the combination of the lock, and a locking bar (7), which in the locking position prevents turning of the lock cylinder (2) with regard to the lock body (1). The locking discs (4) are also provided with a set of second peripheral notches (10) arranged in cooperation with an auxiliary bar (11) so as to prevent turning of the locking discs (4;6) relatively to each other at the end phase of the turning movement for opening the lock before the locking bar (7) moves into its position for releasing the lock. The second peripheral notches (10) are located outside of the cutting range for said combination peripheral notches (8) and are arranged side by side on the peripheral edge of each of the locking discs (4). Their number corresponds to the number of the possible cuts for the combination peripheral notch (8), and the pitch between them corresponds to the mutual pitch between the combination peripheral notches (8). The auxiliary bar (11) is continuously located partly inside the lock cylinder (2) and limits the turning range of the locking discs (4;6). The lock includes further at least one member continuously turning with the key (3) for guiding the radial movement of the auxiliary bar (11).

Cylinder lock

The invention relates to a door lock, which comprises, a lock body (1) provided with a forend and including a latch bolt (3), which is removable between a retracted position and a protruding, locking position out from the lock body through an opening (2a) in the forend (2) and which is spring-loaded towards its said protruding position, and dead locking means turnable from a passive position into a dead locking position, in which they prevent removal of the latch bolt (3) from its said protruding position into its retracted position in the lock body (1). According to the invention the latch bolt (3) comprises a body of the latch bolt (3a) and a separate latch bolt member (3b). The latch bolt member (3b) is supported on the body of the latch bolt (3a) so as to be turnable substantially around a longitudinal axis (24) of the lock body and formed to narrow down in a wedge-like manner towards the outer edge thereof, said bevelled part of the latch bolt member (3b) extending, in the protruding position of the latch bolt (3), substantially out from the lock body (1).
