A double clutch assembly includes a first clutch assembly and a second clutch assembly. The first clutch assembly includes a cylinder (21), a driver assembly, comprising a control member (11), a driver (1), and a driver shaft (9), wherein the control member (11), the driver (1), the driver shaft (9) and are configured to rotate concentrically together and a follower (2). The cylinder (21) is connected to the driver shaft (9). The rotation of the cylinder (21) causes the driver shaft (9) to engage with or disengage from the follower (2). The second clutch assembly includes an actuating assembly and a coupler (3). The coupler (3) relates to and is configured to rotate concentrically with the driver assembly. The actuating assembly is operably connected to the coupler (3) and is configured to move the coupler (3) causing the coupler (3) to disengage from or engage with the follower (2).

A locking mechanism for a bored lock has a lock chassis, a locking element, a motor housing, a reversible electric motor, an auger, and a spiral lock spring disposed between the locking element and the motor. The motor may drive the auger in a first or second rotational direction to move the spring towards/away from the motor to reduce/increase spring force on the locking element, thereby moving the locking element to an unlocked/locked position. One of the locking element and motor housing has a projection while the other has a guideway for slideably receiving the projection. The guideway prevents rotation of the locking element with respect to the motor as it moves between locked and unlocked positions. The projection and guideway are interlocked to prevent disassembly of the locking element and motor housing.

An actuating drive for motor vehicle applications, in particular for a motor vehicle lock comprising an actuating drive, for realizing different functional positions, includes an electromagnetic rotary actuator with a rotor and a stator, in particular a coil carrier, a drive lever, wherein the drive lever can be moved to different functional positions by the rotary actuator, and means for latching the drive lever in the functional position, wherein the drive lever interacts with a switching lever in such a way that, after a functional position of the drive lever is reached, a moment which stabilizes the functional position can be introduced into the drive lever by the switching lever.

A lock, in particular for a two-wheeler, comprises: a lock body; a hoop that is movable between an open position and a closed position; a latch that is movably supported at the lock body between a locked position in which it blocks the hoop in its closed position against a departure from the closed position and an unlocked position in which it releases the hoop; a sensor for detecting the latch position; and a movably supported lever. A coupling section of the lever is movement-coupled to the latch here. In addition, the lever is supported such that on a movement of the coupling section, a deflection section spaced apart from the coupling section carries out a movement that is greater in comparison therewith, with the sensor detecting the position of the deflection section of the lever to detect the latch position.

The problem addressed by the invention is that of being to switch a motor vehicle lock from normal operation to emergency or disruption operation within an especially short time and/or with the least possible expenditure of electrical energy. This problem is solved in that a lock for a motor vehicle having a lock mechanism and an electric drive is provided such that the lock can be electrically opened in normal operation. The lock has an additional operating state, called disrupted operation. In disrupted operation, the lock can be opened mechanically, which is not possible in normal operation. The lock comprises a mechanical energy accumulator for switching the lock from normal operation to disrupted operation.

In a door lock, a locking mechanism includes an outer wheel, an inner wheel disposed inside the outer wheel and operable to rotate relative to the outer wheel, a clutch member disposed in the inner wheel and normally biased to radially extend from the inner wheel into the outer wheel to interengage the inner and outer wheels, and an arm plate sleeved around the inner wheel. When the inner wheel rotates in a first direction, the arm plate is driven by the inner wheel to actuate the deadbolt. When the inner and outer wheels are interengaged, the inner wheel drives the outer wheel by rotating in a second direction. When the inner wheel disengages from the outer wheel, rotation of the inner wheel in the first or second direction is idle relative to the outer wheel.

Disclosed is an automatically resettable passive swing bolt lock consisting of a lock body and a key. The key can be inserted into a locking hole of the lock body. In the present invention, the lock body comprises a lock housing, a rotary compartment, a lock cover, a reset spring, a pin spring, a pin, a lock body PCB, a motor, a cam, a reset pusher block, and two locking contacts. In the lock body, the rotary compartment is installed inside the lock housing. The lock body PCB, the motor and the cam are installed in an internal cavity of the rotary compartment formed by the lock cover and the rotary compartment. The invention has a small size and a simple structure, and the motor thereof has low power consumption.

A latch including a housing having side members each having an elongated slot, a bolt mounted rotatably to the housing and positioned between the side members of the housing, an adjustment mechanism, and a pin and roller positioned slidably within the elongated slots of the side members of the housing. The adjustment mechanism includes a compression spring, a central cap for receiving the pin and roller therethrough, and a nut for adjusting the load on the compression spring. The bolt is moveable between a first, closed position, in which the pin and roller are engaged with the bolt, and a second open position, in which the pin and roller are disengaged from the bolt. The latch can be opened automatically when a defined load, as adjusted by the adjustment mechanism, is provided on the bolt to disengage the pin and roller from the bolt.

A door handle with a door-side output shaft and a handle facing away from the door, the output shaft and handle having a common rotational axis and being connected via an electromechanical clutch, may be particularly compact and may have a particularly low energy intake for shifting the clutch by providing the output shaft with a recess on the side facing towards the handle, in which a coupling element is displaceably mounted; by providing the door handle with a receiving area for the coupling element 40 opposite to the recess; and by arranging a linear drive in the handle, the linear drive acting on the coupling element in order to move the coupling element in the axial direction so far out of the recess that the coupling element engages both into the recess as well as into the receiving area in order to close the clutch, and the coupling element is moved out of the receiving area back into the recess in order to open the clutch.
