ABSTRACT:
Clutch mechanism for locks, which is composed of an interior axis (1), an exterior axis (2), a static body (3), a radial pin (4), a radial catch (5) and a radial actuator (6); said interior (1) and exterior (2) axes and body (3) compose a coaxial assembly where the exterior axis (2) penetrates the interior axis (1) and both are installed with a rotational adjustment in the static body (3), the set of radial pin (4) and radial catch (5) is installed between the actuator (6) and a radial spring (7) which acts between the catch (5) and the base of the housing (2a) of the exterior axis (2); whose pin (4) and catch (5) are dimensioned in such a way that each will be able to be moved between the circumferences of the exterior diameter of the axis (2) and the interior diameter of the axis (1); the radial actuator (6) is composed of a curved plate (6a) and by, at least, one rod (6b), whose plate (6a) is located in an annular depression (8) between the interior axis (1) and static body (3), extending in a circumferential arc containing the angular sector corresponding to the operative rotational transit of the interior axis (1).
