摘要: A user of a self-powered electronic combination lock rotates an outer dial (101) to cause generators to generate energy for storage in a capacitor bank. The user then rotates an inner dial (102) to cause a microprocessor to sequentially display combination of numbers, and presses inner dial (102) to select a displayed number. A microcontroller determines direction and extent of motion of the inner dial by receiving signals derived from Wiegand sensors placed in proximity to a magnetized disc which rotates integrally with the inner dial, and controls the display of numerals on an LCD display accordingly. When the microcontroller determines that a correct combination has been entered, it activates a motor (201) which moves a motor cam (205) to act directly on a locking lever (213) so that the locking lever can engage a drive cam (218) integrally linked with the inner dial, to allow the inner dial to withdraw the lock's bolt.
