Abstract
It is possible for a fastener lock apparatus to reverse the rotational direction of a handle ( ) by simply pulling forward a locking shaft ( ) against a resilient force exerted by a spring member ( ), and then rotating both the locking shaft ( ) and a rotation angle limiting disc ( ) relative to a fixed base mount member ( ) in a condition in which a rotation permitting shaft portion ( ) of the locking shaft ( ) is received in a central through-hole ( ) of the rotation angle limiting disc , wherein the central through-hole ( ) of the rotation angle limiting disc assumes a rectangular shape in front view while the rotation permitting shaft portion ( ) of the locking shaft ( ) assumes a round shape in cross section so as to be capable of being received and rotating in the central through-hole ( ) of the rotation angle limiting disc
