The Anature of the present invention consists in the novxel"construction` and arrangement of a ratchet-key cylinder, which gives an alarm when the keyvis turned,

and which, whenv locked by a spring-stop, holds the A' represents lthe case; i

G, the spring-catch;

tached to the eye, and rotate between the front and Lback plates of the lock, andare slotted out at E', to

receive the uib of the key Z.

l The ratchet M has aghole, l?, made through it, in

which a spur,` orpin, E, put through the end of a spring, D, is placed to hold, the eye `L F in a fixed Y position, and it operates upon the end of a spring, K, fig. 2, and thus gives an alarm when the key Z is turned.

s Operation.

` Tolock the door, put the end of the key into the eyeL F, and so turn' it around as to bring the slots E opposite to the slot d in the case A, iig. 1, the end F' projecting through the case far enough for this purpose. This will allow the key to enter the lock and v tum the bolt Q.

`'Io lock the key in the key-hole,turn itl around until the hole P in the `ratchet M is opposite the hole I in the oase A; then swing the spring D on its-pivot,v

until the pin E passes intothe hole.` Y s By means of thisconstruction and arrangement a substantial alarm-lock is provided at small cost, whiley Y at the same time the key is so locked 'in the door, vas

to prevent it om being turned from the opposite side. l

Having thus described my invention,

Whatl claim, and desire to secure by Letters Patent of the United States, is y l Y A look, A, provided with a rotating eye-cylinder, F, flange Y, ratchet M, spring K, and spring-stop D E,

so operating as to give an alarm, and hold the key in the lock, as set forth.
