CLUTCH FOR DOOR LOCK
In some embodiments, a clutch for a door lock may include an output gear including a plurality of inner detents and a lag plate rotatable relative to the output gear and configured to generate friction when the lag plate rotates. The clutch may also include an input cam configured to be coupled to an output shaft of an actuator, where the input cam is configured to switch between an engaged state and a disengaged state. The clutch may also include a ball bearing configured to engage one of the plurality of inner detents when the input cam is in the engaged state. The ball bearing may also be configured to disengage from the plurality of inner detents under frictional force generated by the lag plate when the input cam is in the disengaged state and the output gear is rotated by an external force.
