Abstract
The present invention relates to a locking apparatus for introduction into a recess of a device to be locked, wherein the locking apparatus has an actuating pin and a bolt part which is rotationally fixedly connectable to the actuating pin and which can be locked and/or unlocked by rotating the actuating pin, wherein the bolt part can be fastened to the named actuating pin in different positions. The invention further relates to the use of such a locking apparatus as a transport lock of a carcass part to be locked such as a device housing door of a security-sensitive gambling device, betting device and/or entertainment device. In accordance with the invention, the actuating pin and the bolt part have releasable latching means having a plurality of latching positions for latching the bolt part to the actuating pin in a plurality of axial positions. The latching means in this respect comprise latch contours which engage into one another in a shape-matched manner, which can be pushed beyond one another in the longitudinal direction of the actuating pin with elastic deformation and which can latch into one another transversely to the longitudinal direction of the actuating pin by elastic recoil so that the bolt part is held axially at the actuating pin in the respective latching position.
