[0002] At present, the structural design widely used in the market is that the motor drives the driving gear, which is then transmitted to the driven gear. The driven gear drives the toggle block through the clutch structure, which drives the lock tongue to slide, thereby locking and unlocking the door. At the same time, the door can be locked manually by turning the knob mechanically.

This structure can easily cause the gear transmission to be not smooth and the motor to be stuck. Moreover, even if a clutch structure is provided between the driven gear and the toggle block, the fixed fulcrum of the driven gear still rests on the toggle block. When the clutch structure is separated, the driven gear can easily drive the toggle block to rotate by inertia, causing malfunction. Summary of the invention
