A removable lock for selectively blocking an aperture in a plate-like member includes a stepped housing which receives a cylinder lock. A rotatable blade, operated by the cylinder lock, is spaced from a shoulder defined by the stopped housing to define a single slot for receiving the plate-like member in the unlocked state of the lock. Rotation of the blade to the locked position results in establishment of a pair of diametrically opposed plate-like member receiving slots. |

A spare tire locking device is described including an upstanding arm which extends upwardly and outwardly from a frame member on a boat trailer or the like. A flat based plate is secured to the upper end of the arm and has a pair of threaded studs extending therefrom in a horizontal fashion. An arcuate bracket is spaced from the threaded studs and extends outwardly from the base plate and has an opening formed therein adapted to receive the shackle of a padlock. The spare tire is mounted on the base plate by extending the threaded studs through lug holes in the wheel of the spare tire. When the spare tire is so positioned, the bracket extends through the hub hole in the wheel closely adjacent the wheel. When the shackle of a padlock is extended through the bracket, the spare tire cannot be removed from the base plate even though the nuts on the threaded studs are removed. |

A locking device includes a threaded stud with a flat face cut through the threaded surface parallel to the axial direction of the stud, and a knob which locks over a forward section of the stud and includes a casing having an inner surface which defines a hole extending axially through the casing. The inner surface of the casing has a flat surface extending axially which receives the corresponding flat face on the threaded stud to prevent rotation of the casing with respect to the stud. The knob also includes a tumbler housing which is mounted in an axially-fixed position within the casing to rotate freely when a key is inserted into the tumbler housing, and to remain locked in a fixed position when the key is withdrawn. Fitted into the rearward end of the tumbler housing is a sleeve having a threaded axial hole which engages the threaded stud when the tumbler housing is turned by a key to thereby pull the forward section of the stud into the casing hole. |

A spare-wheel carrier is provided for mounting to the underside of a pickup truck adjacent the rear end thereof. The carrier is comprised of an elongated support beam which mounts to the frame of the vehicle in a manner to be disposed parallel to the wheel axles of the vehicle. A cradle frame is suspended from said support beam in a manner such that it can be pivoted downwardly and rotated rearwardly of the vehicle to facilitate easy access. A coil spring counteracts the downward force of the cradle frame. A locking mechanism ensures against unauthorized removal of a tire stored within said cradle frame. |

MAURER DONALD L |
Apparatus for protecting the bolt of a lock from being cut. A first member has a hasp attached with a hole through one end and a second member has a slot hasp. The first and second members are locked together when the hasp is passed through the slot and the bolt of the lock is passed through the hole in the hasp. A protective wall is formed on the second member around the slot. When the members are locked together the protective wall renders the bolt inaccessible to the usual massive tools required for quick cutting of the bolt.
