Abstract
A re-keyable cylinder lock includes a cylinder housing, a plug, a carrier, a toothed locking bar and a cotter pin. The plug is operable by a right key to rotate with respect to the housing about a longitudinal axis, and the carrier co-rotates with the plug. The locking bar engages the housing when the plug is in a home position where the cylinder lock is locked. The cotter pin is movable transversely, and has a bar-engaging toothed part engaging the locking bar when the carrier is in a normal position and disengaging from the toothed locking bar when the carrier is moved along the axis to a re-keying position, and a housing-engaging part engaging the housing when the plug is in the home position and when the right key is removed from the plug.
