[0064] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0065] The terms "first," "second," etc., used in the specification and claims of this application are used to distinguish similar objects and not to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that such use of data can be interchanged where appropriate so that embodiments of this application can be implemented in orders other than those illustrated or described herein, and the objects distinguished by "first," "second," etc., are generally of the same class and the number of objects is not limited; for example, a first object can be one or more. Furthermore, in the specification and claims, "and / or" indicates at least one of the connected objects, and the character " / " generally indicates that the preceding and following objects are in an "or" relationship.

[0066] The server provided in this application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, through specific embodiments and application scenarios.

[0067] Example 1:

[0068] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this application embodiment provides an ignition switch with status display, including a lock housing 101, a lock cylinder 102, a solenoid valve 103, a knob 2, a mounting base 104, and an NFC induction coil 105. It also includes several light-transmitting indicator marks 107, which are spaced apart on the knob 2. The light-emitting mechanism 3 is installed in the lock housing 101 and has a control element and multiple LED beads 31. Under the control of the control element, the brightness of the LED bead 31 corresponding to the light-transmitting indicator mark 107 corresponding to the rotation position of the lock cylinder 103 is greater than that of the other LED beads 31.

[0069] Furthermore, the knob 2 includes an outer seat 22, which is engaged with the lock cylinder 102 via a plug rod 111; a housing 21, which is mounted on the top of the housing 21 via several snap fasteners; a light-emitting mechanism 3 is located between the housing 21 and the outer seat 22, and is fixed to the mounting base 104 via a limiting member 23; the outer seat 22 and the housing 21 can rotate in the mounting base 104; and the plug rod 111 is connected to the mounting base 104 via a quick-release device 4.

[0070] Furthermore, the limiting member 23 includes a limiting sleeve 231, which is fixed to the bottom of the mounting base 104; an arc-shaped through groove 232, which is disposed on the outer base 22 and is concentric with the lock cylinder 102; and a limiting rod 233, which is fixed to the bottom of the light-emitting mechanism 3 and can move through the arc-shaped through groove 232 and then be inserted into the limiting sleeve 231.

[0071] In this embodiment of the application, due to the above-described structure, when performing the vehicle unlocking operation, first press the knob 2 to trigger the wake-up switch 106. The vehicle host receives the signal, energizing the PCB board 33 and causing all the LED beads 31 to light up. At this time, the ignition switch is energized, and the light-transmitting indicator 107 that displays the energized state corresponds to the magnet 35. The Hall effect sensor 34 at the corresponding position senses the magnet 35, causing the brightness of the LED bead 31 at that position to increase to a level that is clearly different from the brightness of other LED beads 31 (to a level that the user can clearly perceive). Then, hold the NFC card close to the NFC induction coil 105. When the NFC induction coil 105 senses the NFC card, the vehicle host receives the signal, energizing the solenoid valve 103 to release the lock cylinder 102. Then, the knob 2 and the lock cylinder 102 can be rotated to start the vehicle, unlock the steering wheel lock, open the seat lock, or open the fuel tank cap. When performing these actions, under the action of the control element, the brightness of the LED bead 31 corresponding to the indicator of the vehicle status increases.

[0072] Example 2:

[0073] like Figure 5 As shown, in this embodiment, in addition to the structural features of the aforementioned embodiments, the light-emitting mechanism 3 also includes a sealed light-transmitting shell 32, which is rotatably installed between the outer shell 21 and the outer base 22; a PCB board 33, which is disposed inside the sealed light-transmitting shell 32 and has several Hall effect sensors 34; a magnet 35, which is fixedly installed on the outer base 22; an NFC induction coil 105 is installed on the PCB board 33; and several LED beads 31 are spaced apart on the PCB board 33. The PCB board 33, the Hall effect sensors 34, and the magnet 35 constitute a control element.

[0074] Furthermore, the control elements also include a wake-up switch 106, which is installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the mounting base 104; and a reset spring 112, which is installed inside the lock housing 101, with its lower end fixed and its upper end abutting against the lower end of the lock cylinder 102.

[0075] Furthermore, it also includes a wake-up switch 106, which is installed at the bottom of the inner cavity of the mounting base 104; and a reset spring 112, which is installed inside the lock housing 101, with its lower end fixed and its upper end abutting against the lower end of the lock cylinder 102.

[0076] A method for unlocking an ignition switch with a status display is also disclosed, including the following steps:

[0077] S1: Press knob 2 to trigger wake-up switch 106. The vehicle host receives the signal and PCB board 33 is powered on.

[0078] S2: When the NFC card is brought close to the NFC induction coil 105, the vehicle host receives the signal, controls the solenoid valve 103 to be energized, and the lock cylinder 102 is unlocked.

[0079] S3: Each LED bead 31 is powered on and emits light. At this time, the Hall effect 34 corresponding to the ignition switch state senses the magnet 35, and the brightness of the corresponding LED bead 31 increases.

[0080] S4: Rotate knob 2 to switch the state of the ignition switch, and magnet 35 will rotate;

[0081] S5: The Hall effect sensor 34 corresponding to magnet 35 senses magnet 35, and the brightness of the corresponding LED bead 31 is increased.

[0082] In this embodiment of the application, due to the above-mentioned structure, when the knob 2 is rotated, the light-emitting mechanism 3 with the PCB board 33 inside remains in a fixed position under the action of the limiting rod 233 and the limiting sleeve 231. Only the arc through groove 232 is displaced along the limiting rod 233. At this time, the position of the electromagnet 35 changes, so that the Hall 34 corresponding to the indicator sign of the vehicle's current state cooperates with the magnet 35 to increase the brightness of the lamp bead 31 corresponding to the magnet 35. The light emitted by the lamp bead 31 passes through the light-transmitting silicone pad 324 to illuminate the corresponding light-transmitting sign.

[0083] When the knob 2 is pressed, the knob 2 and the lock cylinder 102 descend together, and the return spring 112 is compressed and stores elastic potential energy. When the knob 2 is released, the return spring 112 releases elastic potential energy and pushes the knob 2 and the lock cylinder 102 upward.

[0084] Example 3:

[0085] like Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment, in addition to the structural features of the aforementioned embodiments, the sealed light-transmitting shell 32 includes an inner seat 321, which is rotatably mounted between the outer seat 22 and the outer shell 21; an inner shell 322, which covers the inner seat 321 and is connected to the inner shell 322 by a snap-fit; a plurality of light-transmitting holes 323, which are circumferentially spaced on the top of the inner shell 322; and a light-transmitting silicone pad 324, which is disposed on the top of the inner seat 321 for sealing the inner seat 321 and the outer seat 22.

[0086] Furthermore, the quick-release device 4 includes a plug 46, which is inserted into the top of the lock cylinder 102 and has a groove 47 on the top; and a connecting block 48, which is fixed to the lower end of the plug rod 111 by bolts and is inserted into the groove 47. The groove 47 and the connecting block 48 both have rectangular cross sections.

[0087] In this embodiment of the application, due to the above-described structure, during installation, the outer base 22 and the outer shell 21 are connected to each other by a snap fastener to form a knob 2, and the PCB board 33 and the light-transmitting silicone pad 324 are fixed therein. Then, the lower end of the insertion rod 111 is inserted into the mounting base 104, and the connecting blocks 48 are fixed to each other by bolts. The bottom of the connecting block 48 has a protrusion, and the upper surface of the protrusion abuts against the bottom surface of the mounting base 104, so that the knob 2 and the mounting base 104 can be rotatably connected. The lower end of the connecting block 48 is then inserted into the slot at the top of the lock cylinder 102, and the mounting base 104 and the lock shell 101 are fixed by bolts, so that the knob 2 can rotate synchronously with the lock cylinder 102.

[0088] Example 4:

[0089] like Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment, in addition to the structural features of the aforementioned embodiments, the sealed light-transmitting shell 32 includes an inner seat 321, which is rotatably mounted between the outer seat 22 and the outer shell 21; an inner shell 322, which covers the inner seat 321 and is connected to the inner shell 322 by a snap-fit; a plurality of light-transmitting holes 323, which are circumferentially spaced on the top of the inner shell 322; and a light-transmitting silicone pad 324, which is disposed on the top of the inner seat 321 for sealing the inner seat 321 and the outer seat 22.

[0090] Furthermore, the quick-release device 4 includes a main buffer spring 108, which is sleeved on the outside of the insertion rod 111, with its upper and lower ends abutting against the bottom surface of the outer seat 22 and the bottom inner wall of the mounting base 104, respectively; a plurality of side grooves 41, which are spaced circumferentially at intervals on the lower part of the outer peripheral wall of the insertion rod 111; a plurality of flip plates 42, whose lower ends are respectively flipped and installed in the corresponding side grooves 41 through corresponding hinges, and whose upper ends can extend out of the corresponding side grooves 41 and abut against the bottom surface of the mounting base 104; and a flip control unit, which is used to control the flipping of each flip plate 42.

[0091] Furthermore, the flip control unit includes a central hole 43, one end of which is disposed at the top of the insertion rod 111 and the other end extends to the lower part of the insertion rod 111, communicating with the inner end of each side groove 41; an elastic member 44, which is installed in the central hole 43, for applying an outward pushing force to each flip plate 42; and a reset member 45, which is slidably sleeved on the lower part of the outer peripheral wall of the insertion rod 111.

[0092] In this embodiment of the application, due to the above-described structure, the outer seat 22 and the outer shell 21 are connected to each other by a snap fastener to form a knob 2, in which the PCB board 33 and the light-transmitting silicone pad 324 are fixed. The main buffer spring 108 is sleeved on the outside of the insertion rod 111, and then the insertion rod 111 passes through the mounting base 104. When the knob 2 is pressed, the main buffer spring 108 is compressed and shortened, and each flip plate 42 moves to below the mounting base 104. Under the action of the elastic element 44, each flip plate 42 flips around the corresponding hinge axis, and the upper end extends... After exiting the corresponding side groove 41, the knob 2 is then released, and the main buffer spring 108 releases its elastic potential energy, causing the knob 2, the insert rod 111, and each flip plate 42 to rise until the upper end of each flip plate 42 presses against the bottom surface of the mounting base 104. Then, the mounting base 104 is fitted onto the lock housing 101 and fixed with fasteners (bolts can be used). At this time, the lower end of the insert rod 111 is inserted into the slot on the lock cylinder 102. Both the insert rod 111 and the slot are rectangular. Therefore, when the knob 2 is turned, the insert rod 111 can cooperate with the slot to drive the lock cylinder 102 to rotate.

[0093] Example 5:

[0094] like Figure 7 As shown, in this embodiment, in addition to the structural features of the aforementioned embodiments, the elastic member 44 includes a slide rod 441, which is installed at the center of the central hole 43 through a connector 5; a slip ring 442, which is slidably installed on the outside of the slide rod 441, and a return spring 443 is provided between it and the connector 5; and a plurality of connecting rods 444, the ends of which are respectively hinged to the slip ring 442 and the inner wall of each flip plate 42.

[0095] Furthermore, the connector 5 includes: a fixed block 51, which is threadedly installed on the upper part of the central hole 43; a blind hole 52, which is disposed at the bottom of the fixed block 51; the upper end of the slide rod 441 is fixedly connected to the inner end of the blind hole 52; and the upper end of the return spring 443 abuts against the inner end of the blind hole 52.

[0096] Furthermore, the reset component 45 includes a reset ring groove 451, which is disposed on the lower part of the outer peripheral wall of the insertion rod 111; and a reset sliding sleeve 452, which is slidably installed in the reset ring groove 451, with the upper part of the inner peripheral wall inclined.

[0097] In this embodiment of the application, due to the above-described structure, when the insertion rod 111 passes through the mounting base 104, the outer side wall of each flip plate 42 contacts the mounting base 104 and is pressed into the corresponding side groove 41. At this time, each connecting rod 444 moves synchronously, pushing the slip ring 442 upwards towards the sliding rod 441. The return spring 443 is compressed. When each flip plate 42 has moved to below the mounting base 104, the return spring 443 releases its elastic potential energy, pushing the slip ring 442 downwards, causing each connecting rod 444 to push each flip plate 42 to flip around the corresponding hinge axis, with the outer end extending out of the corresponding side groove 41, until the lower part of the outer side wall of each flip plate 42 abuts against the top surface of the return sliding sleeve 452. At this time, in conjunction with the extension of the main buffer spring 108, each The top of each flip plate 42 abuts against the bottom surface of the mounting base 104, thus fixing the mounting base 104 and the knob 2 together. The main buffer spring 108 can also absorb the axial impact force on the knob 2. When it is necessary to separate the knob 2 from the mounting base 104, first press the knob 2 to make the top of each flip plate 42 detach from the bottom surface of the mounting base 104. Then push the reset sleeve 452 upward to slide the reset sleeve 452 towards the upper end of the reset ring groove 451, pushing each flip plate 42 to rotate around the corresponding hinge axis until the inner peripheral wall of the reset sleeve 452 contacts the outer peripheral wall of each flip plate 42. At this time, each flip plate 42 is completely submerged in the corresponding side groove 41. Then the knob 2 can be released and pulled to separate the knob 2 from the mounting base 104.

[0098] Example 6:

[0099] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown, in this embodiment, in addition to the structural features of the aforementioned embodiments, it also includes a fixed sleeve 109, which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the outer seat 22; a floating ring 110, the outer peripheral wall of which is slidably engaged with the inner peripheral wall of the mounting seat 104, and a plurality of buffer units 6 are arranged circumferentially between the inner peripheral wall and the fixed sleeve 109.

[0100] Furthermore, the buffer unit 6 includes an outer arc groove 61, which is disposed on the inner peripheral wall of the floating ring 110; an inner arc groove 62, which is disposed on the outer peripheral wall of the fixed sleeve 109 and corresponds to the outer arc groove 61; an outer sliding block 63, which is slidably installed in the outer arc groove 61; an inner sliding block 64, which is slidably installed in the inner arc groove 62; a fixed connecting rod 65, one end of which is hinged to the outer sliding block 63 and the other end of which is hinged to the outer peripheral wall of the fixed sleeve 109; a movable connecting rod 66, one end of which is hinged to the outer sliding block 63 and the other end of which is hinged to the inner sliding block 64; and a pair of auxiliary buffer springs 67, which are respectively disposed between the two ends of the inner arc groove 62 and the two ends of the inner sliding block 64.

[0101] Furthermore, the buffer unit 6 also includes an arc-shaped limiting rod 68, which is slidably inserted in the inner sliding block 64, and its two ends pass through the corresponding secondary buffer springs 67 and are fixedly connected to the corresponding ends of the inner arc groove 62.

[0102] In this embodiment of the application, due to the above-described structure, when the knob 2 is subjected to a radial impact, the distance between one side of the floating ring 110 and the fixed sleeve 109 is shortened, the distance between the other side is increased, and the other two sides are relatively displaced, causing each outer sliding block 63 to slide in the corresponding outer sliding groove. The included angle between the corresponding fixed connecting rod 65 and the movable connecting rod 66 changes, causing each inner sliding block 64 to slide in the corresponding inner sliding groove. Regardless of which end of the inner sliding block 64 slides in the inner sliding groove, the secondary buffer spring 67 in the corresponding sliding direction can be deformed to absorb the impact and protect the knob 2.
