Publication number: 20240102313Abstract: A combination lock for preventing unintentional dialing of character discs has a lock housing and a combination assembly. A cover panel of a front cap of the lock housing has at least three disc-hole sets each of which has at least one disc hole. The combination assembly is mounted in the lock housing and includes at least three lock core assemblies, each of which includes a shaft and at least one character disc mounted on the shaft. The at least one character disc of one of the lock core assemblies and the at least one character disc of an adjacent one of the lock core assemblies are arranged in staggered positions. When one of the at least one character disc is dialed, other character discs surrounding the character disc to be dialed is not unintentionally dialed, which allows convenient use of the combination lock.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 28, 2022Publication date: March 28, 2024Inventor: MIKO LEE

Patent number: 11913250Abstract: A tubular lock for push locking has a lock housing, a switching handle mounted in a front end portion of the lock housing, an upper pin seat and a lower pin seat mounted in the lock housing and the switching handle, and multiple pin assemblies and a core shaft mounted in the upper pin seat and the lower pin seat. A key is only needed when unlocking the tubular lock, and then the tubular lock can be locked by pushing the core shaft. The tubular lock can be used to latch a pivotal mechanism. When the tubular lock is in an unlocking state, the user can switch the latch to the locking angular position or an unlocking angular position by turning the switching handle without using the key. Therefore, flexibility and convenience in using the tubular lock can be efficiently improved.Type: GrantFiled: August 20, 2021Date of Patent: February 27, 2024Assignee: ABA Locks International Co., Ltd.Inventor: Miko Lee

Patent number: 11866961Abstract: An anti-vandal padlock has a base, a buckling unit, two anti-sawing sleeves, a ball, and a locking mechanism. The base has a mounting passage and an annular groove formed on an inner surface of the mounting passage. The buckling unit has two straight segments. The second anti-sawing sleeve is rotatably and axially-movably mounted in the mounting passage, and has a ball hole. The ball is mounted in the second anti-sawing sleeve and is capable of protruding out of the ball hole. In the locked state, the locking mechanism makes the ball engage in the annular groove to limit movement of the second anti-sawing sleeve, such that the buckling unit cannot be detached from the second anti-sawing sleeve. The two anti-sawing sleeves are rotatably mounted on the two straight segments such that the buckling unit cannot be sawn off and has a better anti-theft ability.Type: GrantFiled: October 8, 2021Date of Patent: January 9, 2024Assignee: ABA LOCKS INTERNATIONAL CO., LTD.Inventor: Miko Lee

Publication number: 20230056580Abstract: An adjustable buckle lock has a hook unit, a fixing unit, a wrench unit, an adjustment assembly, and a buckling ring unit. The hook unit can be securely mounted on a first locked object, and the fixing unit can be securely mounted on a second locked object. A pivotal end of the wrench unit is pivotally mounted on the fixing unit. The adjustment assembly is mounted on the wrench unit, and the buckling ring unit is pivotally mounted on the adjustment assembly and selectively hooks on the hook unit. With the moving of the buckling ring unit controlled by the adjustment assembly, the distance between the buckling ring unit and the hook unit is changed, and thus the pulling force for the buckling ring unit hooking on the buckling ring unit is adjusted, which ensures the first locked object and the second locked object are sealed together by a suitable force.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 17, 2021Publication date: February 23, 2023Inventor: Miko LEE

Publication number: 20210062541Abstract: A tubular has a hollow housing, a lock core, a pin seat, multiple pin assemblies, and a covering assembly. Multiple upper through holes are separately formed through a head portion of the lock core. Multiple lower through holes are separately formed through the pin seat and align with the upper through holes of the lock core respectively. An assembler assembles the housing, the lock core, and the pin seat in a preliminary assembling step, then puts the pin assemblies into the upper through holes and the lower through holes from a rear end face of the pin seat in a detail assembling step, and then covers the lower through holes with the covering assembly in a packaging step. The pin assemblies do not fall from the upper through holes and the lower through holes easily. The tubular lock has simplified assembling steps and lowered difficulty of assembling.Type: ApplicationFiled: August 30, 2019Publication date: March 4, 2021Inventor: MIKO LEE

Patent number: 9575506Abstract: A protecting casing for a portable electronic device has a shell and a detachable actuating panel. The actuating panel has a curved clamping sheet crossing over a front edge of the portable electronic device. A lock cylinder is mounted between the shell and the actuating panel. When the lock cylinder is locked, the actuating panel is secured. When the lock cylinder is unlocked, the actuating panel is detachable. Therefore, the actuating panel increases the stability for the protecting casing to be mounted around the portable electronic device. Further, a bolt is connected detachably to the actuating panel and the shell to selectively fasten the protecting casing and the portable electronic device at a fixed position so that the portable electronic device is kept from being stolen.Type: GrantFiled: July 7, 2014Date of Patent: February 21, 2017Assignee: ABA UFO International Corp.Inventor: Miko Lee

Publication number: 20160090755Abstract: A securing device for an electronic device has a holding assembly with a holding seat and a sucker, a rope connected to the holding seat, and a lock and a pressing element mounted on the holding seat. When the securing device is in use, the rope is looped around a post and a side or a corner of the electronic device is mounted between the pressing element and the sucker. Then, a key drives a lock core of the lock to drive the pressing element, such that the electronic device is tightly held between the pressing element and the sucker. Accordingly, the electronic device can be secured at a specific position. The securing device can be used on the electronic devices of different shapes and sizes and is convenient for manufacturing, purchasing, and using.Type: ApplicationFiled: September 30, 2014Publication date: March 31, 2016Applicant: ABA UFO INTERNATIONAL CORP.Inventor: Miko LEE

Patent number: 9187934Abstract: A securing device for a portable device has a lock assembly and a cable connected to the lock assembly. The lock assembly has two locking pins, two resilient elements, a slider, and a lock mounted in a housing. When the lock is rotated by a key, the lock drives the slider and the slider pushes the locking pins to slide laterally. Thus, the lock assembly can be fastened to a casing with a lock hole and with interior space laterally reserved beside the lock hole. The securing device secures the portable device regardless of thickness of the portable device.Type: GrantFiled: June 10, 2015Date of Patent: November 17, 2015Assignee: ABA UFO INTERNATIONAL CORP.Inventor: Miko Lee
