Closure mechanism has force transfer element in form of switchable coupling that can be driven to achieve coupling or decoupling of lock bolt with or from actuation lever

摘要

The closure mechanism has a lock bolt (2) that can be coupled via a force transfer element to an actuating lever (3) to move the bolt between an open and a closed position. The force transfer element is in the form of a switchable coupling (4) that can be driven to achieve coupling or decoupling of the bolt with or from the actuation lever. The switchable coupling operates based on electrorheological liquids.
