Abstract: The present invention relates to a pin tumbler cylinder lock having a cylinder casing and a plug selectively rotatable in the casing, and a plurality of driver pins and associated tumbler pins rotatable about their longitudinal axes. The cylinder lock includes a plurality of parallel circumferential tracks formed in the cylinder casing. Each of the tumbler pins is adapted and configured to seat in the plug and includes a track engaging element arranged to selectively engage one of said tracks. The tumbler pins are arranged to align both vertically and horizontally with matching depressions in a symmetrical key, in order to permit the turning of the plug in the cylinder casing when the key is turned.

Abstract: A vehicle locking device includes a sleeve for removably enclosing one control member of the vehicle, and a pair of locking members movable to a closed position where they may be locked together around a second control member of the vehicle, or to an open position to permit their removal from the second control member. In one embodiment, the transmission control lever of the vehicle is thus locked to the floor-mounted handbrake lever; and in a second described embodiment, the steering wheel is thus locked to a transmission control member mounted on the steering column.
