Abstract

A lock includes a quick unlocking device and a secondary locking device. Thus, when the inner handle is rotated, the latch bolt and the dead bolt are unlocked synchronously by operation of the quick unlocking device, so that the door plate can be opened rapidly, thereby facilitating the user opening the door during the emergency condition. In addition, when the locking block is pressed inward, the locking stud of the locking block is locked in the locking hole of the locking seat to lock the control knob on the locking seat without rotation, such that the dead bolt is fixed by the control knob, thereby forming a secondary locking effect to achieve the anti-theft purpose.
