Abstract
A removable core lock and key device comprises a cylinder housing ( ) and a core ( ), which is accommodated in the cylinder housing. An adapter ( ) is operatively connected to a bolt ( ). The core and the adapter are provided with a connection ( ), such as a bayonet joint, that selectively prevents withdrawal of the core from the housing. Key actuated engagement elements ( ) are arranged to selectively allow mutual rotation of the adapter and the core so as to disengage the connection, thereby allowing withdrawal of the core. A simple yet reliable removable core is thereby provided.
