ABSTRACT:
A wire lock comprising a take-up unit which encloses therein a locking wire so that the wire can be drawn out against the biasing force of a spring and rewound by the same force. A locking member is connected to a projecting end of the wire. The locking member can be brought into engagement for locking can be disengaged for unlocking only by a preset unlocking means. A movement preventing means prevents the movement of the wire at least in the drawing-out direction of the wire. The movement preventing means is attached to the take-up unit so that the inhibition of the wire movement can be released manually. With this construction, a locked object suspended from the wire lock can be carried while holding the wire lock by hand.
