Abstract
The present invention has an object of providing a rotation output device, including a lock mechanism employing a movable lock member so as to define the lock position, which is capable of, when the operator operates an output shaft to pivot, preventing the movable lock member from being concomitantly rotated with the output shaft and thus providing a locking function with certainty. The rotation output device according to the present invention includes, between the lock gearsand the lock ring, a carry platefor retaining the positions of the lock gearsin the rotation direction when receiving a rotation force from the center ring. Thus, the lock ringwhich is rotational-fixed is used as a member for preventing the concomitant rotation of the lock gears
