ABSTRACT:
A padlock has a case, a locking mechanism, a shackle and a key. The locking mechanism, which is housed in the case, has a shield chip, five plate tumblers, a locking plate, a plate spring and two plates sandwiching them. To prevent the padlock from being pried open by an illegal tool, a shield chip prevents one of the plate tumblers from being moved up.
