Abstract
An electronic cylindrical lock has a main body. The main body includes a slide member. The main body further includes a first clutch unit and a second clutch unit to drive the slide member. The first clutch unit and the second clutch unit are connected with a first handle and a second handle, respectively. The main body further includes a control unit for controlling the first clutch unit and the second clutch unit to be engaged or disengaged, so as to selectively allow the first handle and the second handle to drive the lock tongue, or selectively allow the first handle and the second handle not to drive the lock tongue.

An electronic cylindrical lock, comprising:
- a main body, having a first side wall, one side of the first side wall being connected with two connecting walls extending laterally, a second side wall being connected between the connecting walls, a slide space being enclosed by the first side wall, the connecting walls and the second side wall, a peripheral side of the main body being formed with a first end opening and a second end opening that communicate with the slide space, the first side wall having a first through hole communicating with the slide space, the second side wall having a second through hole communicating with the slide space, the main body having at least one blocking portion close to the second end opening;
- a slide member, disposed in the slide space, the slide member being slidable relative to the main body along a slide axis, one side of the slide member, facing the first end opening, having a connecting portion, one side of the slide member, facing the second end opening, being provided with at least one elastic member, another end of the elastic member being against the blocking portion, one side of the slide member, facing the first through hole, having a first actuated portion, one side of the slide member, facing the second through hole, having a second actuated portion, the slide member having a receiving space extending along the slide axis;
- a first clutch unit, disposed in the first through hole of the main body, the first clutch unit having a first rotating ring that is rotatable relative to the main body, a center of the first rotating ring having a first coupling portion, a peripheral side of the first rotating ring having a first clutch groove, the first clutch unit further having a first actuating ring, the first actuating ring being rotatably sleeved on the peripheral side of the first rotating ring, a peripheral side of the first actuating ring having a first actuating portion corresponding to the first actuated portion and a first slide groove corresponding to the first clutch groove, the first clutch unit further having a first engaging pin, the first engaging pin being slidably disposed in the first slide groove, one end of the first engaging pin having a first engaging portion corresponding to the first clutch groove, another end of the first engaging pin extending out of the first slide groove and having a first head portion, a first spring being provided between the first head portion and the first actuating ring;
- a second clutch unit, disposed in the second through hole of the main body, the second clutch unit having a second rotating ring that is rotatable relative to the main body, a center of the second rotating ring having a second coupling portion, a peripheral side of the second rotating ring having a second clutch groove, the second clutch unit further having a second actuating ring, the second actuating ring being rotatably sleeved on the peripheral side of the second rotating ring, a peripheral side of the second actuating ring having a second actuating portion corresponding to the second actuated portion and a second slide groove corresponding to the second clutch groove, the second clutch unit further having a second engaging pin, the second engaging pin being slidably disposed in the second slide groove, one end of the second engaging pin having a second engaging portion corresponding to the second clutch groove, another end of the second engaging pin extending out of the second slide groove and having a second head portion, a second spring being provided between the second head portion and the second actuating ring;
- a control unit, disposed in the slide space of the main body and located corresponding in position to the receiving space, the control unit including a fixing seat connected to the main body, the fixing seat being provided with an electric driving member, the electric driving member having a driving shaft, the driving shaft being connected to a pressing member, the pressing member having a first pressing portion corresponding to the first head portion and a second pressing portion corresponding to the second head portion;
- a lock tongue, disposed outside the first end opening of the main body and connected to the connecting portion of the slide member;
- a first handle, disposed outside the first through hole of the main body and connected to the first coupling portion so that the first handle can drive the first rotating ring to rotate relative to the main body;
- and
- a second handle, disposed outside the second through hole of the main body and connected to the second coupling portion so that the second handle can drive the second rotating ring to rotate relative to the main body.
