    摘要: A key-activated removeable cylinder lock is disclosed. The lock has a lock barrel including a plurality of combinating tumblers disposed therein for movement between a first resting position and a second activated position. The barrel further includes a control tumbler having a first end and a second opposite end. The control tumbler is slidably disposed between a first resting position and a second activated position. In the resting position, the first end is extended relative to the barrel. In the activated position, the first end is retracted relative to the barrel. A housing rotatably removably receives the barrel therein. The housing further has an internal longitudinal slot formed therein extending from a forward end thereof. An annular clearance space is located rearwardly of the slot and is in communicaiton therewith for accommodating extension of the first end of the control tumbler in the resting position, whereby rotational movement of the barrel in the housing is permitted. The width of the first end is greater than the width of the slot and the second end, such that when the control tumbler is in the resting position, removal of the barrel from the housing is prevented. Insertion of a first normal key moves the combinating tumblers into their respective activated positions, whereby the barrel may rotate for the locking and unlocking thereof. Insertion of a second removal key moves the control tumbler into the resting position thereof for the removal of the barrel therefrom.

    摘要: A cylinder lock having a removable barrel that includes a control tumbler. The barrel is retained in the housing of the lock by a nib that is formed on either the barrel or the interior of the housing. A longitudinal nib slot is formed on the other of either the barrel or the interior of the housing. The nib and the nib slot are aligned with one another only when the barrel is in an unlocking position for permitting the barrel to be removed from the housing. In this manner, the barrel may be removed from the housing only when both the barrel is in the unlocked position and when a special control key has been inserted into the barrel for withdrawing the control tumbler into the barrel.
