Abstract:
A lock core mechanism with alarm function comprising:a lock core body having a keyhole formed in one end thereof and a core plate disposed therein, said core plate capable of being rotated under a turning movement of a key and having a combining hole formed in a center thereof and an elongated hole formed proximate a circumferential edge thereof; a projecting rod passing through said core plate of said lock core body and having a retaining portion disposed at an upper portion thereof and a spring located between said retaining portion of said projection rod and said core plate of said lock core body and allowing said projecting rod to move telescopically under a downward movement of said key; a core cover-plate fitly covered in said lock core body and extended through by said projecting rod, said core cover-plate having a through hole and an aperture, said aperture provided to be extended through by said projecting rod; a housing connected with said lock core body and having a supporting ridge disposed in an inner wall thereof; an electric circuit plate fixedly attached to a bottom of said supporting ridge of said housing and having a through hole, an actuating piece corresponding in location to said projecting rod, and at least one alarm unit; a follower member accommodated in said housing and having an axle rod extending upwards from an upper surface thereof and a block disposed on a lower surface thereof, said axle rod passing through said electric circuit plate and said core cover-plate, and then being firmly engaged with said core plate of said lock core body; an actuating elastic assembly engaged in an inner wall of said housing and having a contact member and an elastic member, said contact member provided to be contacted with said electric circuit plate; and, whereby a combination of said components described above allows said electric circuit plate not to sound in a normal unlocking condition only when a matching key is inserted in said keyhole of said lock core body to press against said retaining portion of said projection rod to compress said spring to push said projection rod downwards to touch against said actuating piece of said electric circuit plate, and simultaneously turned to rotate said core plate to make said follower member roll over and press said elastic member downwards to touch against said contact member; otherwise, said electric circuit plate will sound for alarm when a picking tool is inserted to push said projecting rod downwards to touch against said actuating piece without making said elastic member touch against said contact member, or when a special tool is inserted to forcedly rotate said follower member to roll over and press said elastic member downwards to touch against said contact member without making said projecting rod touch against said actuating piece.
