Abstract
A lock assembly (10) includes a first member (12) and a second member (14) including complimentary shaped protrusions (13) and recesses (15) that mate with one another. A locking assembly is housed in the first member (12). The locking assembly includes an electromechanical actuator (18) with a shaft (20) and a locking element (22) arranged to move along the shaft (20) between a locked position and an unlocked position. The locking element (22) is formed with a recess. In the locked position, a locking bolt (16) passes through both first and second first member (12)s and a latch member (26) is received in the notch (28) but is not received in the recess of the locking element (22) so that the locking element (22) prevents movement of the latch member (26) and the locking bolt (16). In the unlocked position, the latch member (26) is received in the recess of the locking element (22), thereby permitting movement of the locking bolt (16).
