Bill Jones Chastity Belt Locking Mechanism

This is a detailed look at the locking mechanism used on most modern day chastity belts - both male and female. This example in particular is from a La Cienture de Chastete belt, a female one. However the same type of concept is used for all the major belt makers, so it should be fairly universally applicable.

The way the lock works is ingeniously simple. There are two parts to the locking mechanism: the lock, and the hasp guard. The lock is made of brass on the Bill Jones belts, and the lock guard is a custom built and drilled piece of stainless steel.

Each lock is tapped and a steel stud is placed inside the hasp of the lock sticking up. This is the piece of metal which holds the belt together. This will become clear shortly.

In this next image you see the lock hasp wrapped around the hasp guard. The reason it is called a hasp guard is that you cannot cut the hasp of the lock while it is locked. Notice how perfectly the lock fits the hasp guard to ensure its security.

Next you see the lock turned over just before it is locked shut. Notice how perfectly the steel stud inside the hasp lines up with the bottom hole in the hasp guard. When the lock is shut the steel stud goes inside this hole and is what actually holds the belt in place.

Now in this next image, the lock is closed and secure. Note the center hole in the hasp guard. You can now see the stud inside this hole. This is how the belt is held together.

On the center post on the belt, once all the pieces of the belt are in place, you can see a hole drilled in the post. When the lock is put on the belt at this time and closed, that steel stud goes through the hole in the post and secures everything in place. Voila!! That's how it works.

This is amazingly secure, and strong. Not only is the lock protected from cutting, but so is the post in which all the belt pieces are fastened together. The only improvement that can be made now is to offer a pick proof stainless steel lock, such as the Abloy series of locks. Perhaps we will see this in the future from some belt makers?? (Hint... Hint...)
