Abstract: Un mécanisme dembrayage de store amélioré est révélé servant à contrôler la levée et la descente dun store qui permet une levée et une descente en douceur des stores, même quand le store est lourd. Le mécanisme dembrayage de store amélioré comprend une fixation de tube de store installée de manière coaxiale et rotative sur un cylindre. Un élément dembrayage est, à son tour, installé de manière coaxiale et rotative sur le cylindre entre la fixation du tube de store et le cylindre. Lélément dembrayage comporte une ouverture formée entre un premier et un deuxième rebords de l'élément dembrayage. Un ressort de blocage en torsion est installé de manière coaxiale sur le cylindre, entre le cylindre et l'élément d'embrayage. Le ressort de blocage en torsion présente une première et une deuxième extrémités opposées qui se projettent dans louverture. La fixation de tube de store présente une portion de prolongement configurée pour se prolonger dans louverture et dimensionnée pour s'adapter entre la première et la deuxième extrémités du ressort de blocage en torsion. Le prolongement présente un premier et un deuxième épaulements opposés couverts dune cale en acier configurée pour s'adapter entre le prolongement et le ressort de blocage en torsion. La portion de prolongement est également dimensionnée et configurée pour maintenir un espacement entre le prolongement et le ressort de blocage en torsion, ce qui permet au ressort de blocage en torsion de saisir le cylindre lorsque le mécanisme d'embrayage est utilisé pour lever ou descendre le store.
