Abstract
A cable lock has a cable and a latch assembly. The latch assembly includes a body, a latch bolt, a lock post and a cylinder. One end of the cable is permanently connected to the body. A latch bolt can be detachably inserted into the body and is permanently connected to the other end of the cable. A lock post is rotatably mounted in the body to securely lock the lock post. The cylinder has a keyhole defined in one end of the cylinder, a spindle rotatably mounted on the other end of the cylinder and means for activating the lock post to rotate with the spindle to release the latch bolt. This configuration provides enough space to allow the cable to curl. A force unbalance can be avoided, and the ease of locking or unlocking the cable lock will be improved.
