Abstract: A combined lock and latch for use with an exterior compartment door on a recreational vehicle has a cylindrical barrel and a rotatable plug mounted within an axial opening formed in the barrel. A number of spring-biased, key retractable tumblers extend through the plug and are received in a narrow slot formed in the barrel to prevent the plug from rotating relative to the barrel when the plug is in a locked position. A metal cam having mutually perpendicular legs is mounted at one end of the key plug, with one of the cam legs engaging a fixed keeper when the plug is in the locked position. An arcuate groove is formed on the barrel and receives the tumblers when the key plug is in latched and unlatched positions. The groove sweeps through approximately 90 degrees and allows the plug to be freely rotated without the use of a key. A second leg on the metal cam engages the keeper when the key plug is the latched position.

Abstract: A tamper resistant pop-handle lock is disposed in the door of a vending machine or similar closure, and is used to restrict operation of a spring-biased handle which is seated in a recessed housing and is adapted for manually latching and unlatching the door. The lock has a cylindrical barrel and a rotatable key plug mounted within an opening in the barrel. An axially extending eccentric lug at the inner end of the plug is received in a recess formed on a retractable locking bolt, such that rotation of the plug relative to the barrel causes the locking bolt to move through a second opening in the barrel. A locking surface on the lug-receiving recess engages the eccentric lug when the key plug is in a locked position to prevent radial movement of the bolt and extension of the handle.
