Abstract: A lock and method of use for securing and un-securing first and second articles, the lock comprises a first element rotationally engaged about a longitudinal axis to the first article, an extension beam rotationally engaged about a lengthwise axis to the first article, the lengthwise and longitudinal axes are coincident, the beam has structure to rotationally engage and disengage the first element. Also included is structure to engage and disengage the second article that is driven from the beam, wherein operationally the beam rotationally engages the first element and the extension beam engages and disengages the first and second articles, resulting in the beam always being able to engage and disengage the first and second articles and the first element only having an ability to engage and disengage the first and second articles when the first element and the beam are rotationally engaged to one another.

Abstract: A tamper proof lock has a bolt with a retracted position and an extended position. A knob has a first position wherein a key operates the bolt and a second position wherein the key does not operate the bolt. A key plate is in opposition to the knob having a key slot. The knob has a locking collar attached to the shaft of the thumb knob. The locking collar has a locking orifice. A thumb knob plate has a locking pin that engages the locking orifice in the second position, wherein the thumb knob is pulled out from the thumb plate. This also stops a key inserted into the key plate from operating the bolt. As a result, bumping, picking, drilling the lock, or using an unauthorized key will be ineffective to open a door with this invention in the second position.
