Abstract
The clutch mechanism in a pushbutton tuner comprises a clutch base plate including a hole, a manual tuning gear disposed at one side of the clutch base plate so as to be manually operated, an inner gear disposed at the other side of the clutch base plate and engaging the manual tuning gear through the hole to transmit rotation of the manual tuning gear to a tuning circuit element via an intermediate means to change a constant for frequency selection of the circuit element. The mechanism is particularly characterized in that the manual tuning gear is fixed to the clutch base plate by passing the rotation axle of the manual tuning gear through the hole and capturing the axle by a horseshoe-shaped stopper at the other side of the clutch base plate.
