Lock apparatus and vehicle using the same

A lock apparatus, comprising:

• a bracket;
• an engagement module supported in the bracket and having an engagement member configured to move to a first position or a second position in the first axial direction relative to the bracket substantially along the first axial direction;
• and
• an actuation module connected to the bracket and comprising a pushing member, the actuation module driving the pushing member to move to a first position or a second position in the second axial direction relative to the engagement module substantially along the second axial direction that is not parallel to the first axial direction,
• wherein when the pushing member is located at the first position in the second axial direction, the engagement member is located at the first position in the first axial direction, and when the pushing member is located at the second position in the second axial direction, the engagement member is located at the second position in the first axial direction,
• wherein the first position in the first axial direction is an unlock position, and the second position in the first axial direction is a lock position,
• wherein the engagement module further comprises a first linkage, and wherein a first end of the first linkage is connected to the engagement member, and wherein a second end of the first linkage is configured to be in contact with the pushing member,
• wherein the pushing member has a first pushing portion, and wherein, when the pushing member is located at the first position in the second axial direction, the first pushing portion is spaced apart from the engagement module, and wherein when the pushing member is moved from the first position in the second axial direction to the second position in the second axial direction, the first pushing portion pushes the engagement module to move the engagement member to the lock position,
• wherein the bracket further comprises a first retaining member located at a side of the pushing member away from the engagement module, and the first retaining member is configured to limit a movement of the pushing member away from the engagement module.
