[0029] In this embodiment, a first through hole 31 is provided on the mounting portion 30, and the cover plate 40 makes a reciprocating linear motion along a first preset direction; the intelligent door lock further includes: a mounting rod 50 extending along the first preset direction, a first end of the mounting rod 50 is connected to the cover plate 40, and the mounting rod 50 is inserted into the first through hole 31; a first elastic member 60 sleeved on the mounting rod 50, the first elastic member 60 has a first end and a second end arranged in sequence along the first preset direction, a first end of the first elastic member 60 is fixedly connected to the cover plate 40, and a second end of the first elastic member 60 abuts against the mounting portion 30.

[0030] Specifically, the mounting rod 50 and the first elastic member 60 play a role in supporting the cover plate 40. When the cover plate 40 needs to be opened, the cover plate 40 is pushed along the first preset direction towards the direction close to the speaker 20, the cover plate 40 drives the mounting rod 50 to move along the first preset direction, and the first elastic member 60 is compressed; when the pressing of the cover plate stops, the first elastic member 60 resets, and the mounting rod 50 and the cover plate 40 reset under the action of the elastic force of the first elastic member 60.

[0031] Specifically, in implementation, the first preset direction is the horizontal direction, such as Figure 3 the left - right direction shown in the figure.

[0032] Optionally, the number of the mounting rods 50 is two, or may be multiple. Optionally, the first elastic member 60 is a spring.

[0033] In this embodiment, the first through hole 31 is a strip - shaped hole extending along a second preset direction; the cover plate 40, the mounting rod 50, and the first elastic member 60 jointly make a reciprocating linear motion along the second preset direction; wherein, the second preset direction is perpendicular to the first preset direction.

[0034] Specifically, the first through hole 31 is used to restrict the cover plate 40, the mounting rod 50, and the first elastic member 60 to move only in a reciprocating linear motion along the second preset direction. When it is necessary to open the installation opening 12, the cover plate 40 is pushed along the first preset direction, so that the cover plate 40 is separated from the panel 11, and then the cover plate 40 is pushed along the second preset direction. The mounting rod 50 and the first elastic member 60 jointly follow the cover plate 40 to move along the second preset direction, thereby opening the installation opening 12. When it is necessary to close the installation opening 12, the cover plate 40 moves in the reverse direction of opening the installation opening 12, so that the cover plate 40 is reset in the second preset direction under the action of gravity, and is reset in the first preset direction under the action of the first elastic member 60 to close the installation opening 12.

[0035] Optionally, the second preset direction is the vertical direction, such as Figure 4 the up and down direction shown in

[0036] In this embodiment, the intelligent door lock further includes: a guiding portion 70, which is disposed in the housing 10 and connected to the housing 10. The guiding portion 70 has a guiding groove 71. The guiding groove 71 extends along the second preset direction. The guiding groove 71 has a first end and a second end that are oppositely disposed along its extending direction. The first end of the guiding groove 71 has an opening, and the second end of the guiding groove 71 is a closed end. A slider 41 is disposed on the cover plate 40. The slider 41 enters the guiding groove 71 through the opening and is slidably disposed along the extending direction of the guiding groove 71.

[0037] Specifically, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the guiding portion 70 and the guiding groove 71 are used to restrict the cover plate 40 to move only in a reciprocating linear motion along the second preset direction. When it is necessary to open the installation opening 12, the cover plate 40 is pushed. The cover plate 40 drives the slider 41 to enter the guiding groove 71 through the opening and slide along the guiding groove 71, thereby opening the installation opening 12. When it is necessary to close the installation opening 12, the pushing of the cover plate 40 is stopped, and it drives the slider 41 to be reset in the second preset direction under the action of gravity.

[0038] Specifically, during implementation, the shape of the slider 41 is adapted to the guiding groove 71, so that it can slide in the guiding groove 71.

[0039] In this embodiment, the intelligent door lock further includes: a second elastic member 80, which is disposed in the guiding groove 71. The first end of the second elastic member 80 is used to abut against the cover plate 40, and the second end of the second elastic member 80 is fixedly connected to the second end of the guiding groove 71.

[0040] Specifically, the second elastic member 80 plays a role in resetting the cover plate 40, as Figure 5As shown, when it is necessary to open the installation opening 12, the cover plate 40 is pushed. The cover plate 40 drives the slider 41 to enter the guiding groove 71 through the opening and slide along the guiding groove 71, and the second elastic member 80 is compressed, thereby opening the installation opening 12. When it is necessary to close the installation opening 12, the pushing of the cover plate 40 is stopped, and the second elastic member 80 resets. Under the action of the elastic force, the slider 41 resets.

[0041] Optionally, the second elastic member 80 is a spring.

[0042] In this embodiment, the intelligent door lock further includes a stop portion 90. The stop portion 90 is disposed inside the housing 10 and connected to the housing 10. The stop portion 90 is used to stop the cover plate 40 so that the cover plate 40 is in the extreme position in the first preset direction. When the cover plate 40 is in the extreme position, the slider 41 is disposed opposite to the opening.

[0043] Specifically, the stop portion 90 is used to limit the cover plate 40 so that when the cover plate 40 moves in the first preset direction towards the direction close to the speaker 20 and moves to the extreme position where the slider 41 is exactly opposite to the opening, it can be blocked by the stop portion 90 and stop moving, preventing the slider 41 from not being able to enter the guiding groove 71 and further affecting the movement of the cover plate 40 in the second preset direction.

[0044] In this embodiment, the intelligent door lock further includes a protrusion 100. The protrusion 100 is connected to the cover plate 40 and protrudes from the cover plate 40 to move the cover plate 40 in the second preset direction by pushing the protrusion 100. When the cover plate 40 is in the position of closing the installation opening 12, the protrusion 100 abuts against the inner wall of the installation opening 12.

[0045] Specifically, when it is necessary to open the installation opening 12, the cover plate 40 is pushed by pushing the protrusion 100 to move the cover plate 40 in the second preset direction, thereby opening the installation opening 12 for the convenience of user operation. When it is necessary to close the installation opening 12, the pushing of the protrusion 100 is stopped. Under the action of gravity, the cover plate 40 resets, thereby closing the installation opening 12. The protrusion 100 abuts against the inner wall of the installation opening 12 to prevent the cover plate 40 from continuing to move downward and ensure that the cover plate 40 is in the position of closing the installation opening 12.

[0046] In this embodiment, the speaker 20 is snap-connected to the installation portion 30; or, the speaker 20 is adhesively connected to the installation portion 30; or, the speaker 20 is magnetically adsorbed and connected to the installation portion 30. The speaker 20 can also adopt other connection methods to connect it to the installation portion 30. Such a setting facilitates the disassembly and installation of the speaker 20.

[0047] In this embodiment, a plurality of through holes 42 are provided on the cover plate 40, and the plurality of through holes 42 are spaced apart.

[0048] Specifically, a plurality of through holes 42 are used to diffusely emit the sound of the speaker 20 outward, so that the sound will not be blocked by the cover plate 40, resulting in too small sound to be heard by the user and affecting the user experience.

[0049] In this embodiment, the intelligent door lock further includes a seal 110, which is disposed on the panel 11 and surrounds the mounting opening 12; when the cover plate 40 is in the position of closing the mounting opening 12, the seal 110 is located between the cover plate 40 and the panel 11 to seal between the cover plate 40 and the panel 11.

[0050] Specifically, the seal 110 surrounds the mounting opening 12. When the cover plate 40 is in the position of closing the mounting opening 12, the seal 110 is located between the cover plate 40 and the panel 11 and is used to seal the gap between the cover plate 40 and the panel 11 to prevent dust and water from entering the housing 10 through the gap and damaging the door lock.
