[Technical Field]

[0001] This invention relates to the field of shared power bank technology, and in particular to an intelligent one-to-eight shared power bank cabinet. [Background Technology]

[0002] Existing shared power bank cabinets typically use an independent latch to lock and release each power bank compartment. Each latch is driven by an independent motor, resulting in a large number of internal motors, complex structure, and high production costs. [Summary of the Invention]

[0003] To overcome the above problems, this invention proposes an intelligent one-to-eight shared power bank cabinet that can effectively solve the above problems.

[0004] The present invention provides a technical solution to solve the above-mentioned technical problems by providing an intelligent one-to-eight shared power bank cabinet, including two rows of power bank storage compartments, with a locking structure between the two rows of storage compartments. Power banks are placed inside the storage compartments, and the locking structure is used to lock or release the power banks. The locking structure includes multiple locking components and a locking switch shaft. Each power bank storage compartment has a locking component fixed to its side. A switch toggle plate is provided on the locking switch shaft corresponding to the position of the locking component. A drive motor is provided at the bottom of the locking switch shaft, driving the locking switch shaft to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise. Each locking component includes a fixing component and a swinging component. The fixing component is fixed to the side of the power bank storage compartment, and the swinging component is axially connected to the outside of the fixing component.

Detailed Implementation Methods

[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this invention clearer, the invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the invention.

[0021] It should be noted that in the embodiments of the present invention, all directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) are limited to relative positions on the specified view, rather than absolute positions.

[0022] Furthermore, in this invention, descriptions involving "first," "second," etc., are for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. In the description of this invention, "a plurality of" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0023] Please see Figures 1 to 5 The intelligent one-to-eight shared power bank cabinet of the present invention includes two rows of power bank storage compartments 10, and a locking structure 20 is provided between the two rows of power bank storage compartments 10. Power banks 40 are placed in the power bank storage compartments 10, and the locking structure 20 is used to lock or release the power banks 40.

[0024] The locking structure 20 includes multiple locking elements 21 and a locking switch shaft 22. Each power bank compartment 10 has a locking element 21 fixed to its side. A switch actuation plate 221 is positioned on the locking switch shaft 22 corresponding to the locking element 21. A drive motor 23 is located at the bottom of the locking switch shaft 22, driving the locking switch shaft 22 to rotate clockwise or counterclockwise. During operation, the drive motor 23 drives the locking switch shaft 22 to rotate, and the switch actuation plate 221 on the locking switch shaft 22 rotates accordingly. During rotation, the switch actuation plate 221 contacts the locking element 21 to release the locking element 21 from the power bank 40.

[0025] The locking component 21 includes a fixing component 211 and a swing component 212. The fixing component 211 is fixed to the side of the power bank's storage compartment 10, and the swing component 212 is axially connected to the outside of the fixing component 211. A positioning post 213 is vertically arranged on the swing component 212, and an opening 218 is provided on the fixing component 211. The positioning post 213 passes through the opening 218 and extends into the power bank's storage compartment 10. The power bank 40 is provided with a positioning hole that matches the positioning post 213. The positioning post 213 is inserted into the positioning hole to lock the power bank 40 into the power bank's storage compartment 10. A compression spring 214 is provided between the swing component 212 and the fixing component 211 to keep the swing component 212 and the fixing component 211 in a taut state, ensuring the fixing effect on the power bank 40. A V-shaped protrusion 216 is provided at one end of the swing member 212 near the locking switch shaft 22. The position of the V-shaped protrusion 216 corresponds to the position of the switch toggle plate 221. When the locking switch shaft 22 rotates, the switch toggle plate 221 passes the V-shaped protrusion 216, the switch toggle plate 221 squeezes the V-shaped protrusion 216, the swing member 212 is lifted up, the positioning pin 213 is dislodged from the positioning hole, and the power bank 40 can be released and taken out.

[0026] The end of the positioning post 213 is provided with a bevel 215, which can be easily slid into the positioning hole to relock the power bank 40 when it is returned.

[0027] The switch toggle plate 221 is connected to the latch switch shaft 22 via a torsion spring 223 and a rotating shaft. A baffle 222 is provided on the left side of the switch toggle plate 221. When the latch switch shaft 22 rotates counterclockwise, the switch toggle plate 221, under the action of the baffle 222, can effectively press against the V-shaped protrusion 216 to control unlocking. When the latch switch shaft 22 rotates clockwise, the switch toggle plate 221 compresses the torsion spring 223 when it encounters the V-shaped protrusion 216, thus avoiding the pressing action. This is used to adjust the position of the switch toggle plate 221 to unlock the power bank compartment 10. The switch toggle plate 221 is equipped with a torsion spring 223; the switch toggle plate is active when the latch switch shaft 22 rotates counterclockwise and inactive when the latch switch shaft 22 rotates clockwise. The main purpose of the V-shaped protrusion 216 is to effectively trigger the corresponding trigger structure and induction switch regardless of whether the switch toggle plate 221 on the latch switch shaft 22 is touched clockwise or counterclockwise.

[0028] In this invention, four switch toggle plates 221 are provided on the locking switch shaft 22. The four switch toggle plates 221 are staggered at a 45° angle from top to bottom. Two locking fasteners 21 are provided on both sides of each switch toggle plate 221, for a total of eight locking fasteners 21, which correspond to eight power bank storage compartments 10.

[0029] A main control board 30 is located on the back of the power bank storage compartment 10. The main control board 30 has multiple sensor switches 217, each corresponding to a swing element 212. One end of the swing element 212 has a sensing point, the position of which corresponds to the position of the sensor switch 217. When the sensing point disengages from the sensor switch 217, it indicates that the power bank 40 in the corresponding power bank storage compartment 10 has been removed, and a signal is sent to the main control chip in the main control board 30 for statistical recording.

[0030] A pendulum 25 is located at the bottom of the latching switch shaft 22. A trigger switch 26 is located on the side of the pendulum 25, and a circuit board 24 is located on the side of the trigger switch 26. The circuit board 24 has contacts. When the latching switch shaft 22 rotates, it drives the pendulum 25 to rotate, and the pendulum 25 presses the trigger switch 26. The trigger switch 26 then touches the contacts, thereby opening the shared power bank cabinet to start operation. The circuit board 24 is connected to the main control board 30. The trigger switch 26 has an arc-shaped boss 261 and a return spring 27 on the side near the pendulum 25. The arc-shaped boss 261 has a central shaft and a guide shaft. The return spring 27 is installed on the central shaft of the arc-shaped boss. When the pendulum 25 rotates, it presses the arc-shaped boss 261. When the pendulum 25 rotates clockwise or counterclockwise on the locking switch shaft 22, it naturally presses the arc-shaped boss 261 to slide outward or inward, causing the trigger switch 26 to be in the closed or open state. After the pendulum 25 passes, the trigger switch 26 is reset by the restoring force of the return spring 27.

[0031] Compared with the prior art, the intelligent one-to-eight shared power bank cabinet of the present invention can realize the unlocking control of eight locking parts 21 by a single drive motor 23 on the locking switch shaft 22, which greatly reduces the number of motors and PCB boards used, while simplifying and reducing the internal structural parts of the cabinet, thus reducing the production and maintenance costs of the cabinet.

[0032] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the concept of the present invention should be included within the patent protection scope of the present invention.
