The invention discloses an intelligent antitheft lock and an antitheft method. The intelligent antitheft lock is characterized by comprising a lock shell, a lock cylinder, an
electromagnetic lock pin, a controller and a triggering module, the lock cylinder is mounted in the lock shell in an inserted manner, the
electromagnetic lock pin controls action of the lock cylinder, the controller controls working state of the
electromagnetic lock pin, the triggering module communicates with the controller, the electromagnetic lock pin is fixedly mounted on the lock shell, and at least one locking groove is formed in positions, directly facing a pin head of the electromagnetic lock pin, of the outer wall of the lock cylinder. By adopting the above technical scheme, a mechanical lock and
electric control technology are combined into a whole, in other words, the electromagnetic lock pin is added on the basis of a conventional mechanical lock, in this way, mechanical locking is realized while
electric control locking is performed on mechanical locking parts, so that a function of double locking is realized. Consequently, when opening the intelligent antitheft lock, a thief has to release control, on the mechanical lock, of the electromagnetic lock pin to realize opening of the mechanical lock.
