You can Google the patent numbers for a technical description and 
internal diagrams. Patent 1837071 was issued in 1930 for a laminated 
lock and 2047102 was issued in 1936 for a combination lock, which the 
patent describes as a "permutation lock". That gives you a ballpark 
date of the lock as being made after 1936, but probably not much after 
or there would be more recent patented improvements made and mentioned.

Making a key or determining a combination from a patent number isn't 
possible, as it describes the invention of the lock and not the 
individual charasterics of a specific sample lock. Sometimes there is a 
code number stamped or inked on the lock that can be looked up by a 
locksmith to make a key or find the combination.
