Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of vehicle technology, and in particular to a locking member, a vehicle lock and a vehicle. Background Art

[0002] At present, the vehicle lock generally prevents the wheel from moving relative to the vehicle body by cooperating with the locking pin and the locking hole on the locking member. When one of the locking pin and the locking member is installed on the vehicle frame and the other is installed on the wheel, if the vehicle does not need to be locked, the locking pin can move relative to the locking member, and when the vehicle needs to be locked, the locking pin is made to cooperate with the locking hole. However, in some cases, due to improper operation or failure of the vehicle lock control, the locking pin will extend toward the locking member and cooperate with the locking hole when the vehicle is still moving at a relatively fast speed, causing the vehicle to stop suddenly, which may lead to a safety accident. Summary of the invention

[0003] The present application provides a locking member, a vehicle lock and a vehicle to avoid the technical problem that a locking pin and a locking member cooperate to cause the vehicle to stop suddenly when the vehicle is moving at a relatively fast speed, thereby improving the safety of vehicle use.

[0004] One aspect of the present application provides a locking member applied to a vehicle lock, wherein the vehicle lock includes a locking pin, and the locking member includes: a body, wherein a locking groove for cooperating with the locking pin is formed on the body,

[0005] The locking groove has a notch for facing the locking pin, and a chamfered surface for contacting the locking pin is formed on the notch.

[0006] Furthermore, a straight line is formed at the intersection of the chamfered surface and the first plane.

[0007] The first plane is parallel to the direction of the notch.

[0008] The beneficial effect of this technical solution is that it makes the chamfered surface easier to process and enables a better rebound effect to be obtained when the locking pin collides with the chamfered surface at various positions.

[0009] Furthermore, an angle is formed between the chamfered surface and the orientation of the notch, and the angle is greater than or equal to 40 degrees and less than or equal to 70 degrees.

[0010] The beneficial effect of this technical solution is that the locking pin can obtain a better rebound effect.

[0011] Furthermore, the angle is 55 degrees.

[0012] The beneficial effect of this technical solution is that the locking pin can obtain a better rebound effect.

[0013] Another aspect of the present application provides a vehicle lock, comprising the above-mentioned locking member.

[0014] Furthermore, it includes a vehicle lock body having a base member and a locking pin assembly, wherein the locking pin assembly includes an elastic member and a locking pin, and the locking pin is connected to the base member through the elastic member so that the locking pin can contact the locking member and can be inserted into the vehicle lock groove under the action of the elastic member.

[0015] Further, applied to a vehicle, the vehicle comprises wheels and a frame,

[0016] One of the locking element and the vehicle lock body is used to be installed on the wheel, and the other is used to be installed on the vehicle frame.

[0017] The beneficial effect of this technical solution is that it enables the car lock provided by the embodiment of the present application to be applied to vehicles, thereby avoiding the problem of sudden stopping of the vehicle when the vehicle is traveling at a high speed as much as possible. Of course, the car lock provided by the embodiment of the present application can also be applied to other fields.

[0018] Further, the vehicle lock body includes a driving mechanism installed on the base member, and the locking pin is connected to the driving mechanism through the elastic member, so that the locking pin assembly can be sent to the first position through the driving mechanism.

[0019] At the first position, the locking pin can contact the locking member and be inserted into the vehicle locking groove under the action of the elastic member.

[0020] The beneficial effect of this technical solution is that when the vehicle does not need to be locked, the locking pin assembly does not need to be in the first position, thereby avoiding the locking pin from obstructing the movement of the wheel and avoiding wear on the locking pin and the locking member. When the vehicle needs to be locked, the locking pin assembly is sent to the first position through the driving mechanism to lock the vehicle; the driving mechanism preferably includes a driving member and a transmission assembly.

[0021] Furthermore, the vehicle lock body includes a reset member connected to the base member and the lock pin, so that the reset member can move the lock pin assembly to a position where the lock pin is separated from the locking member.

[0022] The beneficial effect of this technical solution is that: through the reset member, the locking pin can be separated from the locking member when the vehicle does not need to be locked, thereby avoiding the locking pin from hindering the movement of the wheel and also avoiding wear on the locking pin and the locking member.

[0023] Furthermore, the elastic member is fixedly connected to the driving mechanism and the locking pin, so that the driving mechanism can move the locking pin assembly to a position where the locking pin is separated from the locking member.

[0024] The beneficial effect of this technical solution is that it eliminates the need for the reset member mentioned above, and the lock pin and the locking member can be separated only by driving the lock pin assembly through the driving mechanism, so that when the vehicle does not need to be locked, the lock pin can be separated from the locking member, thereby preventing the lock pin from hindering the movement of the wheel and also avoiding wear on the lock pin and the locking member. Of course, the reset member mentioned above and the elastic member can be fixedly connected to the driving mechanism and the lock pin at the same time.

[0025] Furthermore, a controller is included, and the controller is communicatively connected with the driving mechanism to control the start and stop of the driving mechanism.

[0026] The beneficial effect of the technical solution is that the controller can be used to automatically control the driving mechanism and the locking and unlocking actions, thereby improving the safety and convenience of the vehicle lock provided by the embodiment of the present application and the vehicle using the vehicle lock. The controller is preferably a single chip microcomputer.

[0027] Furthermore, the vehicle lock body includes a first detection member installed on the base member and communicatively connected to the controller to obtain a signal that the locking pin assembly reaches the first position.

[0028] The beneficial effect of this technical solution is that: the signal that the locking pin assembly reaches the first position is easily obtained through the first detection member, and the driving mechanism is controlled by the controller according to the signal.

[0029] Furthermore, the driving mechanism includes a connecting member connected to the elastic member and moving with the elastic member, and a first contact portion is formed on the connecting member.

[0030] So that the first contact portion contacts the first detection member when the locking pin assembly is located at the first position.

[0031] The beneficial effect of this technical solution is that the action of the first detection member acquiring a signal is made more stable and reliable through the mechanical contact between the locking pin and the first detection member.

[0032] Furthermore, the vehicle lock body includes a second detection member installed on the base member and communicatively connected to the controller to obtain a signal that the lock pin is inserted into the vehicle lock slot and a signal that the lock pin is separated from the vehicle lock slot.

[0033] The beneficial effect of this technical solution is that the second detection member can conveniently obtain the signal of the lock pin being inserted into the car lock slot and the signal of the lock pin being separated from the car lock slot, and the controller can issue corresponding control instructions according to the signal, thereby facilitating the automatic control of the car lock and improving the safety and convenience of using the car lock.

[0034] Furthermore, a second contact portion is formed on the lock pin, so that the second contact portion contacts the second detection member when the lock pin is inserted into the vehicle lock slot, and the second contact portion separates from the second detection member when the lock pin is separated from the vehicle lock slot.

[0035] The beneficial effect of this technical solution is that the mechanical contact between the locking pin and the second detecting member enables the first detecting member to obtain signals more stably and reliably.

[0036] Furthermore, it comprises a speed detection component for acquiring a wheel speed signal, and the speed detection component is communicatively connected with the controller so as to control the start and stop of the driving mechanism through the controller.

[0037] The beneficial effect of this technical solution is that when the speed detection component detects that the wheel is rotating at a speed greater than or equal to a numerical value, the controller will not send a start signal to the drive mechanism; when the speed detection component detects that the wheel is rotating at a speed less than a certain numerical value, the controller will send a start signal to the drive mechanism, so that the drive mechanism drives the locking pin to the vehicle locking position, so as to further avoid possible technical problems of the locking pin and the locking member cooperating when the vehicle moves at a faster speed, thereby improving the safety of vehicle use.

[0038] Furthermore, it comprises a vehicle lock body, which comprises a base member and a lock pin, wherein the lock pin is movably connected to the base member so that the lock pin can be inserted into the vehicle lock groove under the action of gravity.

[0039] The beneficial effect of this technical solution is that the locking pin is matched with the vehicle locking member by gravity to achieve vehicle locking, and the elastic member mentioned above does not need to be provided, thus simplifying the structure of the vehicle lock.

[0040] A third aspect of the present application provides a vehicle, comprising the above-mentioned vehicle lock.

[0041] The technical solution provided by this application can achieve the following beneficial effects:

[0042] The locking element, vehicle lock and vehicle provided in the present application can prevent the locking pin from being inserted into the vehicle lock groove when the wheel rotates at a relatively fast speed, thereby avoiding as much as possible the problem of sudden stopping of the vehicle that may be caused when the vehicle is driving at a relatively fast speed, thereby improving the safety of vehicle use.

[0065] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments.

For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0068] The locking parts, vehicle locks and vehicles provided in the embodiments of the present application can be applied to various non-motorized vehicles, such as bicycles, tricycles, etc., and can also be used for various two-wheeled or three-wheeled semi-motorized vehicles and motor vehicles, including vehicles driven by electricity, fuel and gas, such as electric bicycles, electric tricycles and motorcycles, etc.; the vehicles provided in the present application include the above-mentioned non-motorized vehicles, semi-motorized vehicles and motor vehicles.

[0069] like Figure 1-3 As shown, one aspect of the present application provides a locking member 100, which is applied to a vehicle lock. The vehicle lock includes a locking pin 230. The locking member 100 includes: a body 110, on which a locking groove 111 for cooperating with the locking pin 230 is formed.

[0070] The locking groove 111 has a notch for facing the locking pin 230 , and a chamfered surface 111 a for contacting the locking pin 230 is formed on the notch.

[0071] Specifically, the above-mentioned car locking groove 111 can be one or more, preferably multiple, and the multiple car locking grooves 111 are evenly arranged in a ring shape on the main body 110; it is preferred that the main body 110 is a cylinder, and the car locking groove 111 is located on the outer surface of the cylinder, and the above-mentioned notch of the car locking groove 111 is facing the outside of the cylinder in the radial direction of the cylinder. When there are multiple car locking grooves 111, the multiple car locking grooves 111 can be evenly distributed in the circumferential direction of the cylinder; it is also preferred that the main body 110 is an annular structure, and the above-mentioned notch of the car locking groove 111 is facing the inside or outside of the annular structure along the radial direction of the annular structure. When there are multiple car locking grooves 111, the multiple car locking grooves 111 are in the above-mentioned annular structure. Evenly distributed in the circumferential direction; or the direction of the notch is parallel to the axial direction of the above-mentioned cylindrical or annular structure. When there are multiple car locking grooves 111, the multiple car locking grooves 111 are distributed in the circumferential direction of the above-mentioned cylindrical or annular structure; of course, the main body 110 can also be other shapes. When there are multiple car locking grooves 111, the multiple car locking grooves 111 are arranged in a ring shape, and the above-mentioned multiple is two or more. The above-mentioned ring-shaped arrangement refers to the arrangement of each car locking groove 111 in the same ring shape. The car locking groove 111 can be a circular hole, or a square hole or other polygonal holes. The car locking groove 111 can also be a strip opening, which has at least two side walls, and the chamfered surface 111a can be formed on the side wall.

[0072] When in use, the locking member 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application is used in conjunction with a vehicle lock body 200 having a locking pin 230. One of the locking member 100 and the vehicle lock body 200 is installed on the wheel and the other is installed on the frame to achieve relative movement of the locking member 100 and the vehicle lock body 200 when the wheel moves. Generally, one of the locking member 100 and the vehicle lock body 200 makes a circular movement relative to the other. When locking the vehicle, the vehicle lock body 200 releases the locking pin 230, so that the locking pin 230 extends in the axial or radial direction of the wheel and can abut against the locking member 100 and move relative to the locking member 100. If the wheel has a faster rotation speed at this time, the relative speed between the locking pin 230 and the locking member 100 is larger. When the locking pin 230 moves to the locking groove 111 relative to the locking member 100, the locking pin 230 will first collide with the chamfered surface 111a when it moves into the locking groove 111. The greater the relative speed of the locking pin 230 and the locking member 100, the greater the force of the collision. The collision of the chamfered surface 111a with the locking pin 230 will rebound the locking pin 230, making it impossible for the locking pin 230 to extend into the locking groove 111, thereby avoiding a sudden stop of the vehicle; when the rotation speed of the wheel is very small, the relative speed between the locking pin 230 and the locking member 100 is small. When the locking pin 230 moves to the locking groove 111 relative to the locking member 100, the collision force between the locking pin 230 and the chamfered surface 111a will be small, and the locking pin 230 cannot be rebounded, thereby allowing the locking pin 230 to be inserted into the locking groove 111 to lock the vehicle. Of course, if the function of the vehicle lock can be realized, the locking member 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application is also applicable to the situation where the locking member 100 and the vehicle lock body 200 perform relative linear motion.

[0073] By using the locking member 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application, the locking pin 230 can be prevented from being inserted into the vehicle locking groove 111 when the wheel rotates at a faster speed, thereby avoiding as much as possible the problem of sudden vehicle stop that may be caused when the vehicle is driving at a faster speed, thereby improving the safety of vehicle use.

[0074] In one embodiment of the present application, a straight line is formed at the intersection of the chamfered surface 111a and the first plane.

[0075] The first plane is parallel to the direction of the notch. This makes the chamfered surface 111a easier to process and enables the lock pin 230 to have a good rebound effect when colliding with the chamfered surface 111a at various positions. Of course, as long as a large relative speed can be achieved between the vehicle lock body 110 and the locking member 100, the lock pin 230 can be rebounded by the chamfered surface 111a, and the chamfered surface 111a can also be a curved surface or other structure.

[0076] In one embodiment of the present application, an angle is formed between the chamfered surface 111a and the direction of the notch, and the angle is greater than or equal to 40 degrees and less than or equal to 70 degrees. This enables the locking pin 230 to obtain a better rebound effect.

[0077] In one embodiment of the present application, the angle is 55 degrees, so that the locking pin 230 can obtain a better rebound effect.

[0078] Another aspect of the present application provides a vehicle lock, comprising the locking member 100 provided in the above-mentioned embodiment of the present application.

[0079] The vehicle lock provided in the embodiment of the present application, through the use of the locking member 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application, can prevent the locking pin 230 from being inserted into the vehicle lock groove 111 when the wheel rotates at a faster speed, thereby avoiding as much as possible the problem of sudden vehicle stop that may be caused when the vehicle is driving at a faster speed, thereby improving the safety of vehicle use.

[0080] In one embodiment of the present application, the vehicle lock provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a vehicle lock body 200 having a base member 240 and a locking pin assembly, the locking pin assembly includes an elastic member 220 and a locking pin 230, and the locking pin 230 is connected to the base member 240 through the elastic member 220, so that the locking pin 230 can contact the locking member 100 and can be inserted into the vehicle locking groove 111 under the action of the elastic member 220. The locking pin 230 is pressed against the locking member 100 or inserted into the vehicle locking groove 111 under the elastic force of the elastic member 220, so that the relative position between the vehicle lock body 200 and the locking member 100 can be more flexible during installation. Of course, the locking pin 230 can also be vertically arranged or at least have an extension component in the vertical direction, so that the locking pin 230 can be pressed against the locking member 100 under the action of gravity. Specifically, the elastic member 220 may be a tension spring, a compression spring, a gas spring or a magnetic spring, etc.; the base member 240 may be a part of the frame or the wheel, or may be a component produced independently of the frame and the wheel.

[0081] In one embodiment of the present application, the vehicle lock provided in the embodiment of the present application is applied to a vehicle, and the vehicle includes wheels and a frame.

[0082] One of the locking member 100 and the vehicle lock body 200 is used to be installed on the wheel, and the other is used to be installed on the vehicle frame. This allows the vehicle lock provided by the embodiment of the present application to be applied to vehicles, thereby avoiding the problem of sudden vehicle stop when the vehicle is traveling at a high speed as much as possible. Of course, the vehicle lock provided by the embodiment of the present application can also be applied to other fields.

[0083] In one embodiment of the present application, the vehicle lock body 200 includes a driving mechanism 210 mounted on a base member 240, and a locking pin 230 is connected to the driving mechanism 210 through an elastic member 220, so that the locking pin assembly can be sent to a first position through the driving mechanism 210.

[0084] In the first position, the locking pin 230 can contact the locking member 100 and be inserted into the locking groove 111 under the action of the elastic member 220. This means that when the vehicle does not need to be locked, the locking pin assembly does not need to be in the first position, so as to avoid the locking pin 230 from hindering the movement of the wheel and also avoid the wear of the locking pin 230 and the locking member 100. When the vehicle needs to be locked, the driving mechanism 210 is used to send the locking pin assembly to the first position to achieve the locking of the vehicle; the driving mechanism 210 preferably includes a driving member and a transmission assembly.

[0085] In one embodiment of the present application, the vehicle lock body 200 includes a reset member connected to the base member 240 and the lock pin 230, so that the reset member can move the lock pin assembly to a position where the lock pin 230 is separated from the lock member 100. Through the reset member, the lock pin 230 can be separated from the lock member 100 when the vehicle does not need to be locked, thereby avoiding the lock pin 230 from hindering the movement of the wheel, and also avoiding the wear of the lock pin 230 and the lock member 100. The reset member can be a driving component such as a motor, and the driving component can be connected to the lock pin 230 through a transmission mechanism. The driving component can overcome the elastic force of the elastic member 220 to drive the lock pin 230 to separate from the lock member 100 when the driving mechanism 210 is not in action, and / or when the driving mechanism 210 gradually withdraws the force acting on the elastic member 220, the driving component acts together with the driving mechanism 210 to drive the lock pin 230 to separate from the lock member 100. The reset member may also be an elastic member 250, the elastic coefficient of which is smaller than that of the elastic member 220, so that when the vehicle needs to be locked, the elastic member 220 can overcome the elastic force of the elastic member 250 so that the movement direction of the locking pin 230 is the same as the direction of the elastic force generated by the elastic member 220; the elastic member 250 may be a mechanical spring, a gas spring or a magnetic spring, etc.

[0086] In one embodiment of the present application, the elastic member 220 is fixedly connected to the driving mechanism 210 and the locking pin 230, so that the driving mechanism 210 can move the locking pin assembly to a position where the locking pin 230 is separated from the locking member 100. This makes it possible to separate the locking pin 230 from the locking member 100 by only driving the locking pin assembly with the driving mechanism 210 without the need for the reset member, so that when the vehicle does not need to be locked, the locking pin 230 can be separated from the locking member 100, thereby avoiding the locking pin 230 from hindering the movement of the wheel, and also avoiding the wear of the locking pin 230 and the locking member 100. Of course, the reset member and the elastic member 220 can also be used at the same time as the fixed connection between the driving mechanism 210 and the locking pin 230.

[0087] In one embodiment of the present application, the vehicle lock provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a controller, which is connected to the drive mechanism 210 in communication to control the start and stop of the drive mechanism 210. Through the controller, the drive mechanism 210 and the locking and unlocking actions are conveniently controlled automatically, thereby improving the safety and convenience of the vehicle lock provided in the embodiment of the present application and the vehicle using the vehicle lock. The controller is preferably a single-chip microcomputer.

[0088] In one embodiment of the present application, the vehicle lock body 200 includes a first detection member 260 mounted on the base member 240 and connected to the controller for communication to obtain a signal that the lock pin assembly has reached the first position. The first detection member 260 is convenient for obtaining a signal that the lock pin assembly has reached the first position, and the controller controls the drive mechanism 210 according to the signal. For example, when the lock pin assembly reaches the first position, the controller can control the drive mechanism 210 to stop running, thereby positioning the lock pin assembly at the first position to perform a vehicle locking operation.

[0089] In one embodiment of the present application, the driving mechanism 210 includes a connecting member 211 connected to the elastic member 220 and moving with the elastic member 220. A first contact portion 211a is formed on the connecting member 211.

[0090] When the locking pin assembly is located at the first position, the first contact portion 211a contacts the first detecting member 260. The mechanical contact between the locking pin 230 and the first detecting member 260 makes the action of the first detecting member 260 acquiring the signal more stable and reliable.

[0091] In one embodiment of the present application, the vehicle lock body 200 includes a second detection member 270 installed on the base member 240 and connected to the controller for communication, so as to obtain the signal of the lock pin 230 being inserted into the vehicle lock slot 111 and the signal of the lock pin 230 being separated from the vehicle lock slot 111. The second detection member 270 is used to conveniently obtain the signal of the lock pin 230 being inserted into the vehicle lock slot 111 and the signal of the lock pin 230 being separated from the vehicle lock slot 111, and the controller is enabled to issue corresponding control instructions according to the signal, so as to facilitate automatic control of the vehicle lock and improve the safety and convenience of the vehicle lock. For example, when the second detection member 270 only obtains the signal of the lock pin 230 being inserted into the vehicle lock slot 111, the drive mechanism 210 may not be issued a control signal, but if the second detection member 270 obtains the signal of the lock pin 230 being separated from the vehicle lock slot 111 after obtaining the signal of the lock pin 230 being inserted into the vehicle lock slot 111, the controller starts the drive mechanism 210 to separate the lock pin 230 from the vehicle lock member.

[0092] In one embodiment of the present application, a second contact portion 231 is formed on the lock pin 230, so that when the lock pin 230 is inserted into the vehicle locking groove 111, the second contact portion 231 contacts the second detection member 270, and when the lock pin 230 is separated from the vehicle locking groove 111, the second contact portion 231 separates from the second detection member 270. The mechanical contact between the lock pin 230 and the second detection member 270 makes it more stable and reliable for the first detection member 260 to obtain a signal.

[0093] Figure 3 A schematic diagram of a positional relationship between the first contact portion 211a, the second contact portion 231, the first detection member 260 and the second detection member 270 provided in an embodiment of the present application. When the connecting member 211 drives the locking pin 230 to reach the first position, the first detection member 260 will first contact the first detection member 260, and then the controller controls the driving mechanism 210 to stop running and the connecting member 211 to stop moving. At this time, the locking pin 230 is against the locking member 100. When the locking pin 230 moves relative to the locking member 100 to the car locking groove 111, the locking pin 230 moves relative to the connecting member 211 into the car locking groove 111, and the second contact portion 231 contacts the second detection member 270.

[0094] In one embodiment of the present application, the vehicle lock provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a speed detection component for obtaining a wheel speed signal, and the speed detection component is connected to the controller in communication to control the start and stop of the drive mechanism 210 through the controller. When the speed detection component detects that the wheel rotates at a speed greater than or equal to a value, the controller does not send a start signal to the drive mechanism 210. When the speed detection component detects that the wheel rotates at a speed less than a certain value, the controller sends a start signal to the drive mechanism 210, so that the drive mechanism 210 drives the lock pin 230 to the locking position, so as to further avoid the technical problem that the lock pin 230 and the locking member 100 may cooperate when the vehicle moves at a faster speed, thereby improving the safety of vehicle use. The above-mentioned speed detection component can be a component such as a Hall switch or an acceleration sensor.

[0095] In one embodiment of the present application, the vehicle lock provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a vehicle lock body 200, and the vehicle lock body 200 includes a base member 240 and a lock pin 230, and the lock pin 230 is movably connected to the base member 240 so that the lock pin 230 can be inserted into the vehicle lock slot 111 under the action of gravity. The lock pin 230 is matched with the vehicle lock member by gravity to achieve locking of the vehicle, and the elastic member 220 mentioned above does not need to be provided, thereby simplifying the structure of the vehicle lock.

[0096] The third aspect of the present application provides a vehicle, comprising the vehicle lock provided in the above-mentioned embodiment of the present application.

[0097] The vehicle provided in the embodiment of the present application, through the use of the vehicle lock provided in the embodiment of the present application, can prevent the locking pin 230 from being inserted into the vehicle lock groove 111 when the wheel rotates at a faster speed, thereby avoiding as much as possible the problem of sudden vehicle stop that may be caused when the vehicle is driving at a faster speed, thereby improving the safety of vehicle use.

[0098] Specifically, when the locking member 100, the vehicle lock and the vehicle provided by the embodiment of the present application are in use, when the speed detection member obtains that the rotation speed of the wheel is less than a certain value, the locking pin assembly is driven to move through the driving mechanism 210. When the locking pin assembly moves to the first position, the first contact portion 211a on the connecting member 211 will come into contact with the first detection member 260. The first detection member 260 communicates with the controller to stop the operation of the driving mechanism 210, and then stops the movement of the connecting member 211. At this time, the locking pin 230 is against the locking member 100. When the locking pin 230 moves to the corresponding locking groove 111 position relative to the locking member 100, it will move into the locking groove 111, and the second contact portion 231 on the locking pin 230 will come into contact with the second detection member 270. When the relative speed between the lock body 200 and the locking member 100 is relatively large, before the lock pin 230 completes the movement of extending into the lock slot 111, the lock pin 230 will be rebounded by the chamfered surface 111a, thereby causing the second contact portion 231 to separate from the second detection member 270. At this time, the second detection member 270 communicates with the controller, so that the controller controls the driving mechanism 210 to operate and the connecting member 211 to move, thereby gradually reducing the force of the connecting member 211 on the elastic member 220, and the lock pin 230 is in the action of the reset member. The lock pin 230 moves away from the locking member 100 and is finally separated from the locking member 100. When the first contact portion 211a is separated from the first detecting member 260, the first detecting member 260 communicates with the control to stop the operation of the driving mechanism 210. When the relative speed between the vehicle lock body 200 and the locking member 100 is small, the locking pin 230 moves relative to the locking member 100 to the position of the corresponding vehicle locking groove 111. Since it will not be rebounded by the chamfered surface 111a, the locking pin 230 will complete the action of extending into the vehicle locking groove 111, thereby completing the locking of the vehicle.

[0099] Although the above content has described the preferred embodiment of the present invention, those skilled in the art may make other changes and modifications to these embodiments once they know the basic creative concept. Therefore, the appended claims are intended to be interpreted as including the preferred embodiment and all changes and modifications that fall within the scope of the present invention.

[0100] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various changes and modifications to the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Thus, if these modifications and variations of the present invention fall within the scope of the claims of the present invention and their equivalents, the present invention is also intended to include these modifications and variations.
