  • Publication number: 20070033975
    Abstract: A lock cylinder includes a sliding fastening bolt, and an unlocking mechanism disposed in a housing. The characteristics thereof are that the unlocking mechanism is consisted of a fixed cylindrical block, a lock cylinder core and a pressing cylindrical block that are all provided with a plurality of corresponding orifices, respectively. A portion of the orifices at the fixed cylindrical block and the pressing pin cylindrical block is provided with spring pins and a pressing pin respectively. The lock cylinder core further impels the fastening bolt by an interlocking mechanism while a key is provided with an inserting pin for inserting into the orifice at the pressing cylindrical block to push the pressing pin inward that further pushes the spring pin into the orifice at the fixed cylindrical block, thus further turning the lock cylinder core and impelling the sliding fastening bolt for unlocking and obtaining an optimal anti-theft effect.
