[0036] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3The embodiment of the present application provides a double-system clutch mechanism 100 and an intelligent lock with the same, the double-system clutch mechanism 100 comprises a lock cylinder jacket 10, an idle cylinder 20, a mechanical clutch assembly 30 and an electronic clutch assembly 40.

[0037] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The lock cylinder jacket 10 has a containing through hole 11; the containing through hole 11 penetrates through opposite ends of the lock cylinder jacket 10.

[0038] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The idle cylinder 20 is rotationally connected to one end of the lock cylinder jacket 10, and the rotation direction of the idle cylinder 20 is along the circumference of the lock cylinder jacket 10; the idle cylinder 20 has a hollow structure and is sleeved on one end of the lock cylinder jacket 10.

[0039] The mechanical clutch assembly 30 comprises a mechanical lock cylinder 32 and a clutch piece 31, both of which are located in the containing through hole 11; a key can be inserted into the mechanical lock cylinder 32, so that the mechanical lock cylinder 32 is driven to rotate by the key by a certain angle, such as 90 degrees.

[0040] The electronic clutch assembly 40 comprises a clutch cylinder 41 which is sleeved on the lock cylinder jacket 10 and is arranged to slide along the axial direction of the lock cylinder jacket 10, and a driver 42 which is used to drive the clutch cylinder 41 to move;

[0041] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The idle cylinder 20 has a synchronous state and an idle state, the idle cylinder 20 can rotate synchronously with the lock cylinder jacket 10 when the idle cylinder 20 is in the synchronous state; the idle cylinder 20 can rotate freely relative to the lock cylinder jacket 10 when the idle cylinder 20 is in the idle state. The mechanical lock cylinder 32 can drive the clutch piece 31 to abut against the idle cylinder 20 under the action of an external force, for example, the mechanical lock cylinder 32 is driven to rotate forward by 90 degrees by a key, the mechanical lock cylinder 32 converts the rotation of itself into linear movement of the clutch piece 31, so that the clutch piece 31 moves towards the idle cylinder 20 and abuts against the idle cylinder 20, and at the same time, the rotation of the idle cylinder 20 relative to the lock cylinder jacket 10 is limited, the idle cylinder 20 is in the synchronous state and can rotate synchronously with the lock cylinder jacket 10. At this time, the lock cylinder jacket 10 can be driven to rotate by rotating the door handle by hand, the lock cylinder jacket 10 drives the idle cylinder 20 to rotate synchronously and to be unlocked. When the mechanical lock cylinder 32 is reversely rotated, the clutch piece 31 is separated from the idle cylinder 20, and the limitation on the rotation of the idle cylinder 20 is removed, the idle cylinder 20 is in the idle state, at this time, the lock cylinder jacket 10 is driven to rotate by the door handle, but the lock cylinder jacket 10 cannot drive the idle cylinder 20 to be unlocked, and the door lock is in the locked state.

[0042] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3When the driver 42 drives the clutch cylinder 41 to move forward, the clutch cylinder 41 abuts against the idling cylinder 20, and the rotation of the idling cylinder 20 is limited, so that the idling cylinder 20 is also in the synchronous state. The lock cylinder sleeve 10 can be driven to rotate by rotating the door handle by hand, and the lock cylinder sleeve 10 drives the idling cylinder 20 to rotate and unlock. When the driver 42 drives the clutch cylinder 41 to move reversely, the clutch cylinder 41 is separated from the idling cylinder 20, and at this time, the idling cylinder 20 is in the idling state.

Even if the mechanical clutch assembly 30 and the electronic clutch assembly 40 are damaged by violence, the idling cylinder 20 cannot be driven to rotate by rotating the door handle from the outside, so that the door lock cannot be unlocked, and the security of the intelligent lock is improved.

The structure is compact, occupies small space, and is beneficial to the miniaturization and compactness of the overall size of the intelligent lock.

[0045] It can be understood that the mechanical and electronic clutch systems are provided at the same time. Even if the electronic clutch assembly 40 fails, the mechanical clutch assembly 30 can still work normally, and vice versa, which improves the security and reliability of the intelligent lock.

The dual system clutching mechanism of claim 2, wherein: The mechanical lock cylinder drives the clutch element to abut against the rotating cylinder under the action of an external force, and / or the driver drives the clutch cylinder to abut against the rotating cylinder, so that the rotating cylinder is in the synchronous state.

4. The dual system clutching mechanism of claim 2, wherein: The clutch element and the clutch cylinder are both separated from the rotating cylinder, so that the rotating cylinder is in the idle state.

5. The dual system clutching mechanism of any one of claims 1-4, wherein: The clutch element comprises a mechanical clutch pin, an elastic reset element with elastic restoring force and a mechanical transmission sleeve connected to the mechanical lock cylinder.

6. The dual system clutching mechanism of any one of claims 1-4, wherein: The elastic reset element is connected to the mechanical clutch pin and the mechanical transmission sleeve.

7. The dual system clutching mechanism of any one of claims 1-4, wherein: The mechanical lock cylinder has a sliding hole.

8. The dual system clutching mechanism of any one of claims 1-4, wherein: The surface of the mechanical lock cylinder is provided with a driving groove communicating with the sliding hole.

9. The dual system clutching mechanism of claim 8, wherein: The mechanical transmission sleeve is slidably arranged in the sliding hole.

10. A smart lock, characterized by The clutch element further comprises a mechanical sliding pin arranged in the driving groove and connected to the mechanical transmission sleeve. The elastic reset element comprises a first tube spring sleeved on the mechanical clutch pin and a second tube spring connected to the mechanical transmission sleeve. The clutch element further comprises a snap ring arranged on the mechanical clutch pin. The first tube spring and the second tube spring abut against two side ring surfaces of the snap ring. The rotating cylinder is provided with a locking hole. One end of the clutch element is inserted into the locking hole to limit the rotation of the rotating cylinder. The side surface of the rotating cylinder is provided with a limiting ring. The limiting ring is provided with a clutch groove. The inner wall of the clutch cylinder is provided with a clutch protrusion matched with the clutch groove. The inner wall of the clutch cylinder is further provided with a guide groove. The lock cylinder sleeve is provided with a guide block corresponding to the position of the guide groove. The guide block is partially arranged in the guide groove. The driver comprises a motor reducer and a dial seat connected to the motor reducer. The dial seat is connected to the side surface of the clutch cylinder. The motor reducer comprises a motor shell with a receiving cavity, a motor arranged in the receiving cavity, a driving gear connected to the motor, a rotating shaft rotatably connected to the motor shell and arranged in the receiving cavity, a driven gear arranged on the rotating shaft and a spring sleeved on the rotating shaft. One end of the spring is connected to the rotating shaft. The other end of the spring is connected to the dial seat. The dial seat is connected to the rotating shaft and can slide along the axial direction of the rotating shaft under the action of the spring. The double-system clutch mechanism comprises any one of claims 1-9.
