The housing is formed with a driving structure having a first inclined surface, a second inclined surface and a bottom surface. The clutch mechanism includes a driving member having a pushing structure, an elastic member arranged on the driving member for abutting against the driving structure, a rotating member having a pushed structure, and a motor for driving the driving member to rotate. The manual control member is connected to the rotating member. When the motor drives the driving member to rotate relative to the driving structure, the elastic member abuts against the first or second inclined surface to push the driving member to move toward the rotating member, so as to allow the pushing structure to abut against the pushed structure, in order to further drive the rotating member to rotate the manual control member.

Abstract: A lock device includes a shell, a bolt mechanism, a magnetic member, and a magnetic sensing module. The magnetic member is movable with the bolt mechanism. When the bolt mechanism is moved between a locking position and an unlocking position, the magnetic sensing module senses a magnetic force variation of the magnetic member. The lock device further includes a magnetic force generation member disposed on a wall. When a door located at a door-closed position with the bolt mechanism being moved to the locking position is shaken relative to the wall, the magnetic sensing module senses a magnetic force variation of the magnetic force generation member.

Abstract: A rotating cylinder applied to a lock is disclosed. The rotating cylinder is configured to guide a transmission element of the lock and defining a central axis. The rotating cylinder includes an opening, an inner wall, a first guiding structure, a second guiding structure and an engaging groove. The inner wall is communicated with the opening. The first guiding structure is formed on the inner wall and includes a first curved surface. The second guiding structure is formed on the inner wall and opposite to the first guiding structure. The second guiding structure includes a first curved surface. The engaging groove is formed between the first guiding structure and the second guiding structure. The first curved surface of the first guiding structure and the first curved surface of the second guiding structure are closer to the opening than the engaging groove.

Abstract: A separation structure includes a support seat having at least one passage defined transversely therethrough. At least two notches are defined from the top of the support seat. Each notch includes a guide portion and a positioning portion. The guide portion opens through the top of the support seat and narrows toward the root portion of the support seat. The positioning portion communicates with the guide portion. The transmission part of a lock is positioned in the positioning portion of the notch via the guide portion. Two operational ends of the lock are located on two sides of the support seat. A user extends his/her finger through the passage to carry the support seat and the locks.
