Patent attributes
A locking device comprises a locking plate having a first aperture to receive a cable lock, a second aperture having a slot extending therefrom, and a flat attachment cable having one end fixedly attached to the locking plate which is sized to be insertable into the second aperture for subsequent positioning in the slot. Cable crimps on the attachment cable have a width greater than the width of the slot. A locking device is provided which prevents movement of the cable crimps through the aperture when placed in a locked position. In use, the locking device is placed in an unlocked position, and the flat attachment cable is wrapped around an item to be locked and then inserted into the second aperture such that a cable crimp passes through the second aperture and the attachment cable is transversed for placement into the slot, and the locking device is then locked.
