| (54) | Position setting device |
| (57) Position setting device (30) activated by key means comprising a housing (1), rotor
means (2,3) rotatable within the housing and position setting means (20) which in
a setting disposition sets the rotor means at a preselected rotational disposition
relative to the housing and which in a release disposition allows rotation of the
rotor means relative to the housing. On activation by the key means at least a part
(3) of the rotor means becomes axially displaceable relative to the housing and axial
displacement of the at least a part of the rotor means by a preselected amount (d)
relative to the housing causes or enables the position setting means to be displaced
from the setting disposition to the release disposition thereby allowing rotation
of the rotor means relative to the housing. |
