1. A locking device with dual lock mechanisms, comprising:
- a lock body, comprising a first slot and a second slot;
a locking member, comprising a first inserting end and a second inserting end, the first and the second inserting ends to be received by the respective first and the second slots and capable of being separately engaged with the lock body and being maintained at a position to form an enclosed loop with the lock body, and each of the first inserting end and the second inserting end capable of being separately disengaged with the lock body, thereby opening a gap in the enclosed loop while the other of the first and the second inserting ends being engaged with the lock body;
a first locking mechanism, operatively disposed in the locking body restricting movement of the first inserting end received in the first slot, thereby maintaining engagement of the first inserting end with the lock body; and
a second locking mechanism, operatively disposed in the locking body restricting movement of the second inserting end received in the second slot, thereby maintaining engagement of the second inserting end with the lock body.

Abstract
A locking device with dual locking mechanisms, comprising a lock body and a locking member having two inserting ends. The two inserting ends can engage the lock body separately to form an enclosed loop with the lock body to lock an article. Each of the two inserting ends can be moved respect to the lock body or be disengaged with the lock body to open a gap in the enclosed loop. Two locking mechanisms are disposed inside the lock body and can be operated separately to lock the respective inserting ends, thereby the locking device can be locked or unlocked by operating each of the locking mechanisms.
