ABSTRACT:
A steering lock assembly for use in an automobile comprises a cylinder lock for controlling an ignition switch assembly with a mating key inserted in the cylinder lock and a steering shaft lock operatively associated with the cylinder lock for selectively locking and unlocking an automobile steering shaft. The cylinder lock comprises a key-operated barrel and the steering shaft lock comprises a locking member. A retaining mechanism is also provided for temporarily holding the locking member in an unlocked position unless the key inserted in the barrel is withdrawn and comprises a locking link. This locking link is operatively accommodated in an elongated chamber in a lock housing and can be held in position inside the elongated chamber by inserting it in an axial direction of the barrel.
