Claim:
A lock structure comprising a latch mechanism, a drive mechanism and a base, wherein the latch mechanism is configured to lock or unlock along a longitudinal axis, the drive mechanism includes a driving member, a rotating member, and a sliding member, wherein the driving member and the rotating member are engaged mutually, the driving member is driven along an unlock direction in response to a force exerted manually, and the sliding member is moved along the longitude axis to drive the latch mechanism to unlock by the rotation of the rotating member which is driven by the driving member, and the driving member is selectively mounted at a first position which is not aligned with the longitudinal axis or a second position which is opposite to the first position, wherein the unlock direction of the driving member is the same whether the driving member is mounted at the first position or at the second position, and the driving member is rotatable until a first feature of the driving member is engaged with a second feature of the base so that the rotation angle of the driving member is limited, wherein the driving member is mounted or the base, the base having a bottom surface, a first recession recessed from the bottom surface and a second recession recessed from the bottom surface, the first recession and the second recession are intercommunicated with each other, the rotating member and the driving member are disposed within the first recession and the second recession respectively, and, when the lock structure is mounted at a left handed position of a door, the base is mounted at the first position; and when the lock structure is mounted at a right handed position of the door, the base is mounted at the second position.
