The automatic sealing device generally includes a locking device, in which multiple electronic locks are stored for standby use. When the luggage needs to be locked, the electronic lock is taken out from the storage chamber of the locking device, and the opening and closing unit of the locking device opens the electronic lock output port connected to the storage chamber to allow an electronic lock to be output. The electronic lock needs to be charged while it is in the storage chamber for standby use, and the charging contacts of the charging unit of the locking device need to be connected to the charging interface of the electronic lock.

[0125] The following is combined with 2. Figures 6 to 9 The unlocking process of the locker device of the embodiment of the present disclosure is described as follows:
[0126] like Figure 2 As shown, when the lock is removed, the opening and closing unit triggering rod as the opening and closing unit triggering member 21 is in the initial position of the lock release triggering, and correspondingly, the stop plate as the opening and closing unit stopper 22 is in the stop position. The charging unit triggering rod as the charging unit triggering member 31 is in the initial position of the power-off triggering, and correspondingly, the contact mounting member 32 is in the charging position, and each charging contact 31A thereon is connected to the charging interface of the corresponding electronic lock L (if there is an electronic lock L at this position).
[0127] The movable supporting part 5 moves relative to the lock body 1 along the first direction Z toward the electronic lock output port 1B of the lock body 1 (at Figures 1 to 11 In the embodiment shown, the movable supporting part 5 moves upward. During the upward movement, the movable supporting part 5 hits the end surface of the trigger end of the trigger rod of the opening and closing unit ( Figures 1 to 11The trigger rod of the opening and closing unit moves upward with the movable support part 5, driving the stop plates of the two opening and closing units 2 to move in opposite directions along the second direction X and gradually separate. During the upward movement of the movable support part 5, it also hits the end surface of the trigger end of the trigger rod of the charging unit ( Figures 1 to 11 The trigger rod of the charging unit moves upward along with the movable supporting portion 5, driving the contact mounting member 32 and the charging contacts 31A arranged thereon to retreat along the third direction Y to the side away from the lock body 1, and each charging contact 31A is gradually separated from the charging interface of the electronic lock L located in the accommodating cavity 1A.
[0128] like Figure 6 As shown, the movable supporting part 5 continues to move upward to the position, and the opening and closing unit trigger rod as the opening and closing unit trigger member 21 is in the lock-out trigger termination position, and correspondingly, the stop plate as the opening and closing unit stop member 22 is in the avoidance position. The charging unit trigger rod as the charging unit trigger member 31 is in the power-off trigger termination position, and correspondingly, the contact mounting member 32 is in the power-off position, and each charging contact 31A thereon is disconnected from the charging interface of the corresponding electronic lock L (if there is an electronic lock L at this position). At this time, the two stop plates of the two opening and closing units 2 corresponding to the same lock body 1 have been fully opened, and all the electronic locks L in the accommodating cavity 1A fall together onto the movable supporting part 5.
[0129] like Figure 7 As shown, the movable supporting part 5 starts to move along the first direction Z in the direction away from the electronic lock output port 1B (at Figures 1 to 11 In the embodiment shown, the trigger rod of the opening and closing unit moves downward under the action of the compression spring and gravity, and the two stop plates move toward the inner side of the lock body along the second direction X and approach each other, and hit the lowest electronic lock L. At the same time, the trigger rod of the charging unit begins to move toward one side of the lock body 1 along the third direction Z under the action of the compression spring of the contact mounting member reset mechanism 24, and correspondingly, the contact mounting member 32 and each charging contact 31A thereon gradually approach the corresponding electronic lock L (if there is an electronic lock L at this position).
[0130] like Figure 8As shown, the movable supporting part 5 continues to move downward, and all the electronic locks L move downward with the movable supporting part 5 until the chamfer of the upper part of the lock body of the lowest electronic lock L moves to the stop plate, and the lowest electronic lock L no longer blocks the stop plate from moving toward the inner side of the lock chamber body 1. The stop plate reaches the stop position under the driving force of the compression spring of the opening and closing unit trigger reset mechanism 24, blocking all the electronic locks L above the lowest electronic lock L. The charging unit trigger rod continues to move along the third direction Z to the side close to the lock chamber body 1 under the action of the compression spring of the contact mounting member reset mechanism 24. The charging unit trigger rod continues to move along the third direction Z to the side close to the lock chamber body 1 under the action of the compression spring of the contact mounting member reset mechanism 24, and correspondingly, the contact mounting member 32 and each charging contact 31A thereon continue to approach the corresponding electronic lock L (if there is an electronic lock L at this position). As the movable supporting part 5 continues to move downward, it disengages from the charging unit trigger rod, and the charging unit trigger rod returns to the power-off trigger initial position. Correspondingly, the contact mounting part 32 returns to the charging position, and each charging contact 31A thereon is connected to the charging interface of the corresponding electronic lock L (if there is an electronic lock L at this position).
[0131] At this point, the movable supporting part 5 takes away the electronic lock L at the bottom layer in the accommodating cavity 1A, and the lock taking process is completed.
[0132] The above embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention. For example, each guide structure in the above embodiments can be replaced by a guide structure in other forms, for example, the guide can also be achieved by a linear bearing or a guide rail slider mechanism. For another example, the number of opening and closing units corresponding to each lock body can be 1 or more. For another example, the number of opening and closing unit linkage rods 25 and the number of corresponding drive plates of each opening and closing unit can be more or less. The form of the opening and closing unit stopper or contact mounting member is not limited to a plate, and can also be other shapes such as a fork, a grid, etc.
[0133] According to the above description, the locking device and the automatic sealing device of the embodiment of the present disclosure have at least one of the following advantages:
[0134] The locker device has a simplified structure, small size and low cost.
[0135] When the lock body outputs the electronic lock, the charging unit trigger can cause the charging contacts of the charging contact electronic lock to completely disengage, making the output of the electronic lock smoother and the action more reliable.
[0136] The output electronic lock does not require a separate power device, simplifies the structure and control, and improves the overall reliability of the automatic sealing equipment.
[0137] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the present disclosure rather than to limit it. Although the present disclosure has been described in detail with reference to the preferred embodiments, ordinary technicians in the relevant field should understand that the specific implementation methods of the present disclosure can still be modified or some technical features can be replaced by equivalents, which should all be included in the scope of the technical solution for protection requested by the present disclosure.
