The motor in an electronic lock is its core power source, and its working principle is as follows:
Power source: The motor provides power for the electronic lock to help realize the automatic opening and closing of the lock. When the user unlocks the door through a password, fingerprint, card or mobile phone, the motor will receive the corresponding signal and start.
Transmission device: After the motor is started, the power is transmitted to the lock tongue and other components through the transmission device (usually composed of gears, racks, etc.). This process ensures the smooth transmission and precise control of power, thereby realizing the opening or closing of the lock.
Unlocking and locking process:
Unlocking: When the user initiates the unlocking command, the motor runs, driving the transmission device to retract the lock tongue and complete the unlocking action. The sensor will monitor the position of the lock tongue in real time to ensure that the motor stops running and the door lock is opened after the lock tongue is fully retracted.
Locking: When the door is closed, the sensor detects the change in the position of the door and transmits a signal to the control system. The control system starts the motor, so that the lock tongue extends and is fully inserted into the lock buckle on the door frame. The motor stops running after reaching the locked state.
Security protection: Electronic locks are also equipped with a variety of security protection mechanisms, such as alarm notifications after multiple consecutive incorrect password inputs, and prevention of brute force cracking. These functions are achieved through the close cooperation of motors and control systems. The role of motors in electronic locks is not only to provide power, but also to ensure the safety, convenience and intelligent functions of electronic locks through precise control and interaction with the control system.
