ABSTRACT:
An axial type, tubular key operated, cylinder lock which utilizes a plurality of variable strength and variable tension spring-biased pin arrangements which are to be movable when connected with the proper key to a shear-line position achieving operation of said lock. A pin assembly is normally movable longitudinally to its shear-line position. Any attempt to move the pin assembly other than with a properly coded key will result in the pin assembly being deflected to a displaced position deterring against operation of the lock.
