Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of locks, in particular to an electric door lock which can be opened with a knob and low resistance. Background Art
[0002] Chinese patent publication number CN219760791U discloses a fully automatic smart lock reduction motor, including an output gear, an output motor, and a gear system. The output gear is provided with a rotating shaft, and the output motor and the output gear are connected by a gear system. The gear system includes a reduction gear unit driven by the output motor and a clutch gear unit driven by the reduction gear unit. The output end of the clutch gear unit can engage or disengage with the output gear through a movable action. The user presses the manual drive member (knob) to compress the clutch spring, and the rotating shaft (unlocking shaft) moves axially along the mating shaft hole to cause the linkage block to exit the linkage groove, thereby allowing the rotating shaft to rotate freely relative to the output gear. At this time, the user can control the lock cylinder to unlock by rotating the rotating shaft while maintaining the pressure.
[0003] In the prior art, pressing down on a knob separates the output teeth from the transmission teeth. Keeping the knob pressed down and rotating it unlocks the lock. The initial process does not require driving the reduction motor. Release the knob, and the clutch spring drives the output teeth into engagement with the transmission teeth. This requires a clutch spring, which is complex and requires a secure installation position, taking up a lot of space. Furthermore, unlocking the lock requires pressing down on the knob, which is inconvenient. Utility Model Content
