[0008] Preferably, the emergency power supply consists of a battery compartment and a battery compartment cover.

[0009] Preferably, the keypad area is equipped with physical keys.

[0010] Preferably, a door handle is fixedly connected to the outside of the keyhole.

[0011] Preferably, the visual recording device consists of a base and a camera located on the base.

[0012] Preferably, the alarm device is equipped with an alarm speaker.

[0013] As can be seen from the above technical solution, compared with the prior art, the present invention discloses an intelligent lock for gun storage cabinet with stronger anti-interference and anti-destruction capabilities, requiring strict identity verification and access control for unlocking, recording of operation behavior, unalterable operation log, emergency power system, automatic recording of gun retrieval, and alarm sounding when damaged. Attached Figure Description

[0014] To more clearly illustrate the technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model or the prior art, the drawings used in the description of the embodiments or the prior art will be briefly introduced below. Obviously, the drawings described below are only embodiments of this utility model. For those skilled in the art, other drawings can be obtained based on the provided drawings without creative effort.

[0015] Figure 1 The attached diagram is a front structural schematic diagram of this utility model.

[0016] Figure 2 The attached diagram is a schematic diagram of the rear structure of this utility model. Detailed Implementation

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0018] This utility model discloses an intelligent lock for a gun storage cabinet, comprising a lock shell 1 and a display screen 2 embedded in the front of the lock shell 1. An iris scanning hole 3 is provided above the display screen 2, a password keypad area 4 is provided below the display screen 2 and installed on the lock shell 1, an IC card reader area 5 is provided below the password keypad area 4 and installed on the lock shell 1, a keyhole 6 is provided below the IC card reader area 5, a fingerprint collection area 7 is provided below the keyhole 6, a visual recording device 8 is provided on the upper part of the back of the lock shell 1, and an alarm device 9 is provided on the lower part of the back of the lock shell 1.

[0019] An emergency power supply 11 is provided on the back of the lock case 1. The emergency power supply 11 is only triggered and used in emergency situations, such as power outages, human-caused damage to the power supply, or human-caused damage to the smart lock. The power of the emergency power supply 11 can be used to trigger the alarm device 9 and sound an alarm.

[0020] The emergency power supply 11 consists of a battery compartment 112 and a battery compartment cover 111. The battery compartment 112 contains a storage battery, and the battery compartment cover 111 can be used to protect the storage battery.

[0021] The password keypad area 4 is equipped with a physical keypad 41. Compared with touch screen keys, the physical keypad 41 has the advantages of longer service life and lower failure rate.

[0022] The keyhole 6 is provided with a fixedly connected door handle 61, which is used by the user to open the door of the gun storage cabinet.

[0023] The visual recording device 8 consists of a base 81 and a camera 82 located on the base 81. The visual recording device 8 contains a visual acquisition chip, which can analyze the images recorded by the camera 82 to record the presence and status of the gun.

[0024] The alarm device 9 is equipped with an alarm speaker 91. When the alarm device 9 is triggered, the alarm sound can be emitted by the alarm speaker to alert people around.

[0025] In use, this smart lock supports five verification and unlocking methods: iris recognition, password input, IC card sensing, fingerprint collection, and mechanical key unlocking. The password input method uses a dynamic password, requiring authorization from a higher authority. For iris recognition, the user must align their eyes with the iris scanner; the display will show whether the scan was successful. Once the iris feature scan is complete, the display will show "match successful," and the smart lock will automatically open. Pulling the door handle will open the gun storage cabinet door. Password input requires authorization from a higher authority. After authorization, the user enters the dynamic unlocking password; the display will show the password input progress. Once the correct password is entered, the smart lock will automatically open. For IC card sensing, simply bring the authorized IC card close to the IC card sensing area; the smart lock unlocks after two seconds. This two-second unlocking time prevents accidental unlocking and ensures speed in emergency situations. For fingerprint unlocking, the authorized user's fingerprint must be collected beforehand. The authorized user simply presses their finger on the fingerprint collection area; unlocking occurs after two seconds. When the above electronic unlocking devices are damaged, the user can simply insert the mechanical key into the keyhole and turn it clockwise to unlock. Because this smart lock has an internal visual acquisition chip, the visual recording device records the number and status of firearms based on images captured by the camera. Normally, this smart lock is powered by an external power source; if the external power source fails, the emergency power supply will automatically activate, providing basic security for unlocking. If the above unlocking methods result in more than five incorrect attempts, the lock will automatically lock, the smart chip inside the lock will trigger an alarm mechanism, and the alarm device will emit a loud alarm sound and automatically sound an alarm. This smart lock has internal Bluetooth and WiFi chips, allowing it to connect to mobile devices or computers to read the lock's operation log, which cannot be altered.

[0026] This utility model provides an intelligent lock for gun storage cabinets with stronger anti-interference and anti-destruction capabilities, requiring strict identity verification and access control for unlocking, recording of operation behavior, unalterable operation logs, an emergency power system, automatic recording of gun retrieval, and an alarm that sounds automatically when damaged, prioritizing absolute safety.

[0027] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to make or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not to be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
