Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of remote control technology, and more specifically, to a smart air conditioner remote control based on a quick-release battery structure that prevents leakage and corrosion. Background Technology

[0002] Smart air conditioners are air conditioners with automatic adjustment functions. Smart air conditioner remote controls are control devices used to control the air conditioner's cooling, heating, dehumidification, and air purification functions. Because smart air conditioner remote controls integrate circuit boards and other electrical components, the internal batteries may swell or bulge after prolonged use. Smart air conditioner remote controls are frequently bumped or knocked, which can cause the bulging batteries to break or leak.

[0003] When battery fluid leaks into the battery compartment, it can corrode the inside of the remote control and even damage electrical components such as circuit boards. Furthermore, leaking batteries are difficult to remove from traditional smart air conditioner remotes. When removing the battery, the corrosive nature of the leaking fluid can cause skin damage if the skin comes into direct contact with the battery. Therefore, the purpose of this invention is to provide a leak-proof and corrosion-resistant smart air conditioner remote control based on a quick-release battery structure, thereby solving the problem of battery leakage causing corrosion to circuit components in existing smart air conditioner remote controls. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a smart air conditioner remote control with a quick-release battery structure that is leak-proof and corrosion-resistant, in order to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention aims to provide a smart air conditioner remote control with a quick-release battery structure that prevents leakage and corrosion. The remote control includes a housing, a battery compartment on the back panel of the housing, a battery cover fastened to the battery compartment, and a cover body with a battery storage compartment. A retaining ring is rotatably mounted near one edge of the battery storage compartment to limit battery engagement, and a pusher is movably mounted near the other edge of the battery storage compartment to push the battery. Sliding grooves are provided on the top of both side walls of the battery storage compartment, and protective covers for protecting the battery are slidably mounted within these grooves.

[0006] As a further improvement to this technical solution, a fixed wall is provided at one end of the battery storage compartment, and a slot is provided through the side wall of the fixed wall. The inner diameter of the slot is larger than the outer diameter of the retaining ring, and the retaining ring is rotatably installed in the slot.

[0007] As a further improvement to this technical solution, the retaining ring is an arc-shaped ring structure with a diameter greater than half a circumference. A rotating shaft is fixedly provided on the outer wall of the retaining ring near the top edge, and a limiting protrusion is provided on the inner wall of the retaining ring near the top edge.

[0008] As a further improvement to this technical solution, symmetrical shaft holes for installing a rotating shaft are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the slot near the top edge, and the retaining ring is rotatably installed in the shaft hole through the rotating shaft.

[0009] As a further improvement to this technical solution, a telescopic hole is provided at the other end of the battery storage compartment. A pusher is elastically installed in the telescopic hole. The pusher includes a push block. A battery slot is provided on the upper surface of the push block. A limit rod is provided at the bottom of the push block. A spring is nested on the limit rod.

[0010] As a further improvement to this technical solution, the pusher is slidably engaged into the telescopic hole by a limiting rod, one end of the spring is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the pusher block, and the other end of the spring is tightly fitted to the upper surface of the battery storage compartment.

[0011] As a further improvement to this technical solution, the protective cover has a semi-arc structure, and a base plate is provided on both sides of the outer wall of the protective cover near the bottom edge.

[0039] Example 1

[0040] Please see Figures 1-5 As shown, the purpose of this embodiment is to provide a smart air conditioner remote control with a quick-release battery structure that prevents leakage and corrosion. It includes a remote control housing 1, a battery compartment 101 on the back panel of the housing 1, and a battery cover 2 fastened to the battery compartment 101. The battery cover 2 includes a cover body 201, on which a battery storage compartment 2011 is provided. A partition 2015 is provided inside the battery storage compartment 2011 to separate the batteries 3, reducing the risk of cross-contamination when the batteries 3 are damaged and leak. The partition 2015 is located near one end of the battery storage compartment 2011. A retaining ring 203 is rotatably installed at the edge to lock and limit the engagement of the battery 3. The retaining ring 203 locks and fixes one end of the battery 3. A pusher 204 is movably installed near the other edge of the battery storage compartment 2011 to push the battery 3. The pusher 204 is installed in the battery storage compartment 2011. When the pusher 204 is raised, one end of the battery 3 installed in the battery storage compartment 2011 is pushed up by the pusher 204, so that the battery 3 is tilted in the battery storage compartment 2011, making it easy to remove the battery 3 from the battery storage compartment 2011.

[0041] To prevent the battery 3 from popping out of the battery storage compartment 2011 and causing leakage when one end of the battery 3 is lifted by the pusher 204, the other end of the battery 3 remains locked in the retaining ring 203. To ensure the stability of the battery 3 locked in the retaining ring 203 and prevent it from falling out, the retaining ring 203 rotates as the battery 3 tilts. A fixed wall 202 is provided at one end of the battery storage compartment 2011. A slot 2021 is formed through the side wall of the fixed wall 202. The inner diameter of the slot 2021 is larger than the outer diameter of the retaining ring 203, ensuring that the retaining ring 203 can rotate along the rotation axis 2031 within the slot 2021. The retaining ring 203 is rotatably mounted within the slot 2021. The retaining ring 203 is an arc-shaped ring structure larger than a semicircle. A rotating shaft 2031 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the ring 203 near the top edge. A limiting protrusion 2032 is provided on the inner wall of the retaining ring 203 near the top edge. The central angle of the retaining ring 203 is greater than 180 degrees. The battery 3 is inserted into the retaining ring 203 by the limiting protrusion 2032 to fix the battery 3. The inner diameter of the retaining ring 203 is adapted to the outer diameter of the battery 3 to ensure that the outer wall of the battery 3 is tightly fitted to the inner wall of the retaining ring 203 when the battery 3 is inserted into the retaining ring 203. The inner wall of the slot 2021 has symmetrical shaft holes for installing the rotating shaft 2031 on both sides near the top edge. The retaining ring 203 is rotated and installed in the shaft hole through the rotating shaft 2031. When the battery cover 2 is removed from the remote control housing 1, the battery 3 and the battery cover 2 are taken out from the battery compartment 101 together, realizing easy disassembly of the battery 3.

[0042] To securely fasten the battery cover 2 onto the remote control housing 1, a through groove 2013 communicating with the battery storage compartment 2011 is provided through the side wall of the cover 201. The through grooves 2013 at both ends of the cover 201 allow for easy removal of the battery 3 when it is being taken out or put in. A fastening ear 205 is provided at one end of the cover 201. A fastening groove is provided on the surface of the remote control housing 1 at the edge of the battery compartment 101. The cover 201 is fastened into the fastening groove by the fastening ear 205. The fastening ear 205 is an elastic buckle; it tightens and fastens into the fastening groove. The size of the fastening groove is smaller than the size of the fastening ear 205. When the fastening ear 205 is inserted into the fastening groove, it deforms and compresses under force. Simultaneously, the fastening ear 205 applies an expanding elastic force to the fastening groove, causing the fastening ear 205 to engage with the fastening groove, thus securing the cover 201.

[0043] Since battery 3 is installed in battery storage compartment 2011, when battery 3 is installed, battery 3 is inserted into battery compartment 101 as a whole. Traditionally, battery compartment 101 uses springs to press the battery, which may damage the springs when battery 3 is inserted into battery compartment 101. In order to ensure that the two poles of battery 3 are in normal contact with the conductive electrode plates when battery 3 is inserted into battery compartment 101, and to ensure the continuity of battery circuit, spring plates 102 for conducting electricity to battery 3 are installed in the inner cavity of battery compartment 101. The conductive electrode plates that contact the two poles of battery 3 are all spring plates 102. While providing conductivity to battery 3, spring plates 102 can clamp the battery and fix it. At the same time, spring plates 102 can prevent battery 3 from being inserted into battery compartment 101.

[0044] Example 2

[0045] To prevent accidental damage to battery 3 due to impacts or other factors, and to prevent leakage from a damaged battery 3 from corroding the circuit boards and other electrical components inside the remote control, the following improvements are made based on Example 1:

[0046] Please see Figures 6-9 As shown, grooves 2016 are provided on the top of both sides of the battery storage compartment 2011. A protective cover 4 for protecting the battery 3 is slidably installed in the grooves 2016. Preferably, the inner wall of the protective cover 4 is provided with several grooves for collecting and preventing leakage, preventing leakage from flowing out from both ends of the protective cover 4. The cover 201 and the protective cover 4 seal and protect the battery 3, preventing leakage caused by accidental damage to the battery 3 due to impact or other factors. At the same time, the protective cover 4 can collect and protect the leakage of the battery 3, preventing leakage into the battery compartment 101.

[0047] Furthermore, in order to remove battery 3 from battery cover 2, protective cover 4 needs to be slid off cover 201. At this time, since battery 3 lacks the support of protective cover 4, one end of battery 3 is pushed up by pusher 204, while the other end of battery 3 is locked in retaining ring 203. Therefore, the state of battery 3 is as follows. Figure 8 As shown, one end of the battery 3 is raised, and the other end rotates at a certain angle within the slot 2021 as the retaining ring 203 rotates. The raised battery 3 can be more easily removed from the battery storage compartment 2011.

[0048] Because the battery is snapped into the battery storage compartment 2011, the battery 3 does not have enough support points, making it inconvenient to remove. A telescopic hole 2014 is provided at the other end of the battery storage compartment 2011. A pusher 204 is elastically installed inside the telescopic hole 2014. The pusher 204 includes a push block 2041, with a battery slot 2042 on its upper surface. A limit rod 2043 is provided at the bottom of the push block 2041, and a spring 2044 is nested on the limit rod 2043. The pusher 204 is slidably snapped into the telescopic hole 2014 via the limit rod 2043, and springs together... One end of the spring 2044 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the push block 2041, and the other end of the spring 2044 is tightly fitted to the upper surface of the battery storage compartment 2011. The bottom of the limiting rod 2043 is provided with a limiting ring with an outer diameter larger than that of the limiting rod 2043. A limiting groove adapted to the limiting ring is opened in the telescopic hole 2014 to ensure that the limiting rod 2043 is always slidably engaged in the telescopic hole 2014. When the protective cover 4 on the top of the battery 3 is removed, the spring 2044 loses its force and rebounds due to the lack of support from the protective cover 4, and pushes the battery compartment 2042 to lift the battery 3.

[0049] To ensure that the protective cover 4 protects the battery 3 while facilitating its removal from the cover 201, the protective cover 4 has a semi-circular structure. Base plates are provided on both sides of the outer wall of the protective cover 4 near the bottom edge. A slider 401 is fixedly mounted on the lower surface of the base plate. The protective cover 4 is slidably engaged into the groove 2016 via the slider 401. Preferably, the slider 401 has a T-shaped design, and the groove 2016 is a T-shaped groove adapted to the slider 401. The groove 2016 extends from one end of the pusher 204 to the edge of the fixed wall 202. The protective cover 4 slides into the groove 2016 from one end of the pusher 204 and slides towards the fixed wall 202, thus providing protection for the battery 3.

[0050] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of the present invention. Those skilled in the art should understand that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely preferred examples and are not intended to limit the invention.
