ABSTRACT:
An improved plunger lock mechanism in which a shell is supported within a lock casing for movement to and from a locked position, the shell carrying a plug lock which is rotatable relative to the shell upon insertion of an appropriate key. The plug lock carries a bolt which is movable outwardly to latching engagement with a latch shoulder provided in the casing. A cam surface is so disposed in the casing as to urge the bolt inwardly from its latching position to a retracted position upon rotation of the plug lock, thereby permitting release of the shell from its locked position.
