ABSTRACT:
A cycle lamp or other accessory has a combined switch and locking mechanism. The lamp is mounted on an adjustable bracket by means of a blade projecting from the bracket and received in a socket of the lamp body. The blade has a notch which matches a notch in the socket. A locking quadrant engages these notches when operated by a key of a cylinder lock incorporated in the removable cover of the lamp body. In one position of the lock the cover is locked to the lamp body and the lamp is locked to the blade of the bracket and also impedes access to the clamping screws of the bracket. The key also operates the on/off switch of the lamp, while in the locked condition. In the unlocked position, the lamp is switched off, but when removed from the bracket the lamp can be turned on and off by means of the key. The blade is mounted on a swivel which can rotate on one saddle of the clamping bracket, mating teeth being provided for positively locating the swivel in a selected angular position, the swivel and bracket together permit substantially universal adjustment of the lamp.
