Core replaceable hockey lock

Abstract

A core replaceable hockey lock includes a housing having a space defined therein. An installation hole is defined in one end thereof and a slit is defined in the inner periphery of the installation hole. An insertion hole is defined in the housing and communicates with the slit. A deadbolt is rotatably installed in the installation hole and has a recess which is located corresponding to the slit. The deadbolt has at least one passive member connected thereto which is located in one end of the housing. A positioning plate is inserted in the slit and the recess to axially position the deadbolt. A positioning pin is inserted into the insertion hole and positions the positioning plate. The hockey lock can use different cores installed therein such as six-bead core, seven-bead core or bead-replaceable core. The user needs only one key to unlock all of the hockey locks.
