key and combination padlock

[Category : - MECHANICAL ENGINEERING- OTHER- Tools]
[Viewed 2046 times]

I invented a padlock which is the newest, most complex and safest model of key and combination padlock in the world.

If you perform a search in the websites of locksmith companies around the world such as American, European or Asian, you will find out that samples similar to this model does not exist. Moreover, due to the fact that this model has numerous safety and security factors, it provides high levels of security and there is no way to open it but to cut the lock with an electronic device such as a grinding machine, which is used for heavy-duty cutting. After studying and assessing this invention, if you found a way to open this lock except for the way mentioned, please let me know. I have made the handmade sample of this model in home which clearly shows the performance of the lock. This sample is not a maquette and is totally real, which has been made from iron. It is clear that the industrial version of this lock will not be in this form and would be much more precise and better looking and similar to its 3 dimensional model. Additionally, this invention has patent certificate and (scientific confirmation from the Industrial and Scientific Research Organization of Iran). I have sent you the information associated with this design which includes the following:


1. The image of patent certificate and its official translation together with the verification of the Iran's Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

2. The descriptions of the invention

3. photo of the handmade sample of the model

4. 3 dimensional images of the invention

Summary of the Invention

Unlike conventional padlocks which have only one security factor called ' the key ' this invention known as " key and combination padlock in order of code and key with safe case " has four security and safety factors, which are as follows :

1. The key

2. Four digit code ( + One letter ) [ e.g. D-5183 ]

3. Metal body protector (safe case)

4. The sequence (first code and then the key)



To unlock you must enter a Four -digit code ( + One letter ) , if the code is correct, the metal protective plate comes down and you can see the entrance of the key to the lock.Then, at this time you can use the key to unlock the lock.

If someone does not know the code , even if they have the key, they cannot use it to open the lock. This is the sequence (first code then the key).At the core of this invention there is a lock that can only be opened by key which must have certain properties and undertaken some changes to be prepared to be used at the core of the invention.The entire body this lock is slid inside a Metal body protector which has an H-shaped form .The Metal body protector covers the whole body of the lock and protects it against any foreign influence.In addition, there is a protective black sheet metal in the invention, which is movable and is used to cover and protect the key's entrance and exit place and the lock operating rod's entrance and exit place .At the lower part of the invention, there is the code part which is a fixed Four-digit number ( + One letter ) and for each lock it is a unique Four digit number ( + One letter ) for that lock.

Descriptions of the invention


If you search through the websites of the lock maker companies around the world such as American, Asian and European, you will find out that there are key padlocks and combination padlocks , but a padlock which has key, four digit code( + One letter ) , metal body protector and sequence (first code then key) does not exist. The existence of such safety and security factors can increase the security of the lock. As a matter of fact, this invention may have some imperfections too, which if you tell me, I can work on them and remove them. My idea is to increase the security and safety factors of a padlock to reach them maximum safety possible, i.e. 100 percent. This level of security can be achieved when the lock cannot be opened by using all the methods being utilized by ordinary people or experts (e.g. locksmiths) until now. In other words, the lock cannot be infiltrated and opened using simple and normal tools. The aim is to reach a lock with absolutely high levels of security, to open which, there would be no expert and the only way to open it is cutting, not with a simple tool but with an electronic devise such a grinding machine. In this invention I have claimed that I have reached this aim. If you disagree with me and can find out a way to open this lock, please let me know.

To do this, I selected a padlock having the properties I desired and then I performed some changes on it, so that it becomes suitable to be used as the central core of the invention . I intended to use the key system of this lock in my invention. Then I designed a body protector for this lock, which is the form of H and the lock is slid through this metal body protector. This metal body protector covers the entire body of the lock and protects it against any outside infiltrations. In regular padlocks, this metal body protector does not exist and there is only the lock body itself which is exposed to outside and is easy to be infiltrated into and can be opened by breaking its inside system. But in this invention, this lock body is protected by a metal body protector. For example, in a condition that this body protector does not exist, the can be infiltrated into easily by a small cordless drill and a borer, and open it by drilling into its sensitive parts and breaking its inside systems. Or we can drill into the key entrance and open it by destroying its inside system.

In order to open some locks, heavy and light impacts are exerted on some of their parts and open them by breaking their inside systems. Several other ways exist that by using them, locks can be opened. But in this invention, the body protector prevents all these cases and increases the lock’s security. In addition, there is a black protective metal plate in the right part of the lock, which is the key’s entrance and exit part and is where the lock’s operating rod is located, and is used to protect these two parts. This protective metal plate moves with a sliding path and when the lock is closed, covers these two parts. The handmade model, which I have made, contains minor errors and this protective plate stays a little lower, which in the real and industrial model it must completely cover the hole. This error is arose due to the lack of facilities and is rectifiable. When the key’s entrance and exit part and the lock’s operating rod part is not exposed and they are covered, they are not possible to be infiltrated or drilled into and direct impact cannot be made on them. On the other hand, it won’t be possible to pour acid at the key’s entry point, which causes the internal systems of the lock to brake and the lock to be opened. In addition to these, it is not possible to use small tools or master keys to unlock. There are other ways to infiltrate into locks, but in this invention, utilization of the body protector and the protective plate have prevented these ways and greatly improved its safety.

In the lower part of the invention, there is the code part, which is attached to the other components of the lock. The code is a fixed four digit number ( + One letter ) and for each lock it is a unique four digit number( + One letter ) for that lock. The stability of the code is to increase its security. In the variable code condition, there is a neutral position in which the code changes, and usually the experts are aware of its design and how this works and open the lock in emergency conditions (such as when the code is forgotten) but not by cutting it. This neutral condition is considered as a flaw. This means that there is someone who can open the lock. Therefore, the code of this invention, unlike conventional, is chosen to be fixed so that there would be no expert to open it and the only way to open would be cutting. Moreover, locks with variable code are comprised of small components such as pins, springs and ball bearings which are sensitive to impact, drilling, acid, moisture, dirt and dust and etc. which is also a flaw. In this invention, the code part is not made of small components but is made of large and strong parts which have superior resistance to the agents mentioned. This advantage makes the invention to be applicable for open space conditions (indoor) as well as close space ones (outdoor).

The stability of the four digit code( + One letter ) is not an imperfection, but it is a advantage because it increases the security of the lock. Given that a padlock is not expensive like a big safe, the customer must protect the code like the key and in the case of disclosure, either change the lock or use it elsewhere. Although, all the components of the invention in the handmade model is made of iron, it has achieved the 100 percent security mentioned. If these components are made of a stronger metal like steel, the security of the invention is greatly increased. In this invention, the metal body protector is made of 2 mm thickness iron sheet whereas the protective plate is made of 5 mm thickness iron sheet, whose thicknesses can be increased or lessened or made of another metal like steel. Also, this invention can be made in the two sizes of small and large. Sequence (first code then the key) is also present in the invention, which has increased the lock’s security. In order to open the lock, first you must enter the code. After doing so, if the code you entered is correct, you can use the key to unlock. If you are not aware of the code , even if you have the key, you cannot use the key to open the lock. It is clear that if the sequence did not exist and you could use the key before entering the code , the security of the lock would have been greatly reduced.

Steering wheel lock

In addition to the padlock mentioned, I designed a steering wheel lock, whose lock system is based on this invention. In other words, I designed a steering wheel lock using this invention, which is similar to ordinary steering locks that are placed on the steering wheel, with the only difference that it does not have sliding formation and the rods are fixed. This steering wheel lock also has absolutely high levels of security whose only way of opening is to cut the rods which are tough and strong.
