Patent attributes
A control system for a shutter is disclosed. The shutter includes a force-bearing mechanism and a plurality of slats. The control system includes a power source, a driving device connected to the power source to output a first driving force, which drives the force-bearing mechanism to rotate the slats, and a clutch mechanism, which includes an input member and an output member which are drivable to be connected together for synchronous operation, or to be mutually disconnected for independent operation. When the driving device outputs the first driving force, the input member is engaged with the output member, and the first driving force can be transmitted to the force-bearing mechanism through the clutch mechanism to rotate the slats. When the driving device stops, the input member is disengaged from the output member, and the slats and the force-bearing mechanism are rotatable relative to the driving device.
