ABSTRACT:
A card type locking apparatus having a chamber enclosed by an upper half and a lower half and having a slidable element, a spring, and four spring plungers in the chamber. When a card plate with raised blocks acting as security codes thereon is inserted into a preset opening provided on the locking apparatus, the raised blocks lift the spring plungers and urge the pin rods mounted on the spring plungers to align horizontally. When the card plate is pressed further the four pin rods enter a window formed on the upper half, which results in the backward movement of the slidable element and the release of the hook, producing the unlocked state.
