ABSTRACT:
An improved cabinet drawer locking system is provided which permits a user to lock the cabinet drawers by placing the system in the locked position after closing the drawers and/or by placing the system in the locked position and then closing the drawers. The system includes a key actuated lock and a shaft, rotatably mounted in the cabinet and connected at one end to the lock. The shaft includes an offset lever at the end opposite the end connected to the lock. This lever drives a linkage which engages a spring-biased latch bar. The latch bar co-acts with a cooperating member secured to the drawers of the cabinet to lock and unlock the drawers. In operation, the lock rotates the shaft and the offset lever; and the linkage transmits this motion to the latch bar to move the latch bar between a locked and an unlocked position.
