Abstract:
A lock includes a housing, a cylindrical core body and a tumbler unit. The core body is rotatably mounted in the housing, and includes a core axle, and a core tube sleeved on the core axle. The core axle has a helical keyway. The tumbler unit includes a housing pin hole formed in the housing, a tube through hole formed through the core tube, a pin assembly movably mounted in the housing pin hole and the tube through hole, a hole-defining surface defining the tube through hole and having a shoulder surface portion, and a resilient member disposed in the housing and resiliently biasing the pin assembly to abut against the shoulder surface portion and extend into the helical keyway.

Claim (Index 1):
A lock comprising:\n a housing having an inner surrounding surface that defines an inner space; a cylindrical core body having a lock axis, said core body being substantially mounted in said inner space, and being rotatable relative to said housing about the lock axis, said core body including a core axle that extends along the lock axis, and a core tube that is sleeved on said core axle, said core axle having at least one helical keyway that is formed in an outer surrounding surface thereof and that extends about the lock axis, said at least one helical keyway extending through an end surface of said core axle to form an insertion opening; and a plurality of tumbler units each including a housing pin hole that is formed in said inner surrounding surface of said housing, a tube through hole that is formed through said core tube and that is in spatial communication with said at least one helical keyway, a pin assembly that is movably mounted in said housing pin hole and said tube through hole, a hole-defining surface that defines said tube through hole, and a resilient member that is disposed in said housing and that resiliently biases said pin assembly toward the lock axis, said hole-defining surface having a shoulder surface portion that faces away from said core axle; wherein, when said core body is at a latching position relative to said housing where said housing pin hole and said tube through hole of said at least one tumbler unit are aligned with each other, said resilient member resiliently biases said pin assembly to abut against said shoulder surface portion and extend into said at least one helical keyway through said inner surrounding surface of said housing, and wherein said core axle has a plurality of said helical keyways, some of said tumbler units serving as coplanar tumbler units that respectively correspond to said helical keyways and that reside in a first plane perpendicular to the lock axis.
