A padlock includes a shell, a shackle, a button and an indicator. The shackle has a long leg, a short leg and an arch section extending between the long and short legs. The short leg is rotatable about the long leg. The button is movable to a blocking position to block the short leg from rotation about the long leg, and to an unblocking position to permit the rotation of the short leg about the long leg. The key-operated lock core is configured to drive the button in one direction to the blocking position and in a reverse direction to the unblocking position. The indicator is movable with respect to the key-operated lock core and the button. The indicator is movable from an original position, toward a first horizontal level that is tangent to the vertex of the arch section of the shackle, to an indicative position outside the shell. |

An apparatus and method for tamper detection of an electronic lock device using a capacitive proximity sensor. The capacitive proximity sensor is positioned on a printed circuit board that is positioned in an inner region of a housing of the electronic lock device. An electronic signal is transmitted to a conductive element, such as, for example, an area of a copper layer(s) or trace(s) on the printed circuit board. The transmitted electronic signal is monitored to determine a capacitance value. The capacitance value is evaluated to determine whether the capacitance value corresponds to known or predetermined capacitance values that are associated with a cover plate covering an opening of the inner region. In the event the capacitance value is determined to be outside of predetermined capacitance values, and signal may be generated to a reporting authority indicating the removal of the cover plate from the housing. |

A locking state detector comprises a magnet disposed at a first portion of a casing which has an opening that is lockable with an opening locking means. A detector is disposed at a second portion of the casing, the second portion being spaced apart from the first portion such that a clearance between the first and second portions is formed. An interfering component is fixed to an interfering component pivoting means, which is disposed in the opening locking means and arranged to pivot into the clearance and out of the clearance when the interfering component pivoting means is rotated. The detector is arranged to detect a locked state and a non-locked state of the opening locking means in cooperation with the magnet and the interfering component, and to indicate the detected state for subsequent processing. |
