Neat, is it a coil mainspring hidden by the metallic cover? Whats the little metal rod plunger adjacent to the bridle do? What gun utilized the lock? Obviously, I cant help with the patent search...sorry.
Socialism is almost the worst.

Somewhat similar to No. 2101/1883 by Grant & Adams given the locks' asymmetry.

Markus, you are correct. I am in awe. It is on a Grant gun.

Since we have time, can someone explain why the two locks are different.
I can't seem to figure out why the front end of the "cocking rods" are different. Both hammers are back but...?
Thanks, Dave

Dave, I cannot answer your good question. I do not own the gun that the photo came from, so cannot inspect more. Hopefully, someone like Markus will help us understand. The patent is addressed in Crudgington and Baker.

Division of labour: Right-hand lock cocks on opening; Left-hand lock's tumbler is brought to full-cock on opening but its mainspring is cocked on closing.
