ABSTRACT:
An easily assembled padlock with relatively few parts which include an outer casing, an insert shell having a pedestal with a lock plug bore for insertion into the casing, a U-shaped shackle, a lock bolt means actuated by a spring means and having an "assembly" position, a "locked" position and an "unlocked" position, a key operated lock plug for engaging and moving the lock bolt means in the insertable shell bore and a mutual engageable detent means for limiting movement of the lock plug and lock bolt means within the shell bore to only the locked or unlocked positions after assembly. Assembly of the padlock is relatively easy as the components are designed to fit together and be held in place with minimal assembly operations.
