1. An electro-mechanical lock assembly comprising:
- a keypad;
a motor;
a gear;
a spline-driver;
a torque member;
a housing;
a bezel;
wherein the motor is operable upon selective input to the keypad;
wherein the motor is coupled to the spline-driver to engage both the gear and the housing when the motor is in operation;
wherein the bezel is attached to the gear such that when the spline-driver is engaged with both the gear and the housing, manual rotation of the bezel will rotate the housing; and
wherein the housing is attached to the torque member which is configured to move a latch such that when the bezel rotates the latch is moved.

Abstract
The present disclosure provides an electro-mechanical lock assembly which illustratively includes a motor, a gear, a driver, a torque member, a housing, and a bezel. The motor is operable upon selective input. The motor is also coupled to the driver to engage both the gear and the housing when the motor is in operation. The bezel is attached to the gear such that when the driver is engaged with both the gear and the housing, manual rotation of the bezel will rotate the housing. The housing is attached to the torque member which is configured to move a latch such that when the bezel rotates the latch is moved.
