Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of locking technology, and more particularly to a locking assembly. Background Technology

[0002] In existing technologies, when locking the hook part of a product, the locking structure usually requires manual operation. Since manual operation is inconvenient and inefficient, it needs to be improved. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The present invention aims to provide a locking assembly to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that when the locking assembly of the prior art locks the hook part of the product, the locking structure usually requires manual operation of the locking, which is inconvenient and inefficient.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve the technical problem is as follows: A locking assembly includes a housing, the interior of which is provided with a receiving cavity, the receiving cavity accommodating a hook and a stop piece, the hook and the stop piece being abutted against each other, the hook being rotatably disposed in the receiving cavity, the stop piece being slidably disposed in the receiving cavity, one end of the hook being provided with a protrusion, the other end of the hook being provided with a hook ring, the side of the stop piece near the hook being provided with a bevel, the bevel side of the stop piece abutting against the protrusion at one end of the hook, the top of the stop piece being provided with a stop plate, the stop plate having a stop groove on the side near the hook, an elastic element being installed in the receiving cavity, the elastic element abutting against the side of the hook piece away from the bevel, a magnet being correspondingly located at the top of the housing, the magnet also corresponding to the area directly above the stop piece.

[0005] In some embodiments, the hook body is rotatably connected to the housing via a pivot.

[0006] In some embodiments, a slider is provided at the rear of the abutment, a limiting rod is provided at the bottom of the abutment, a sliding groove adapted to the slider is provided on the housing, the slider is located in the sliding groove, the sliding groove includes a through groove, the through groove is located at the bottom of the sliding groove, the through groove is opened through the housing, a crossbar is corresponding to the bottom of the through groove, the crossbar is connected to the housing, and the limiting rod is located in the through groove.

[0007] In some embodiments, a cover plate is detachably connected to the side of the housing where the receiving cavity is provided.

[0008] In some embodiments, the housing is bolted to the cover plate.

[0009] In some embodiments, the magnet is configured as an electromagnet.

[0010] In some embodiments, the elastic element is configured as a spring.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0012] In this invention, when the product needs to be locked, the magnet is demagnetized. During the descent of the abutment in the receiving cavity, the inclined edge of one side of the abutment abuts against the protrusion at one end of the hook body. At the same time, as the abutment descends, it drives the abutment plate to descend as well. During the descent of the abutment plate, the abutment groove of the abutment plate accommodates the hook body, and the elastic element elastically abuts against the side of the hook body away from the inclined edge. Thus, when the protrusion of the hook body is abutted by the inclined edge of the abutment and when the hook body is accommodated and abutted by the abutment groove of the abutment plate, the hook body rotates and tilts towards the hook supply part of the product. As the hook body rotates and tilts towards the hook supply part of the product, the hook ring at the other end of the hook body hooks the hook supply part of the product to lock the product. When the product needs to be unlocked, the magnet is in a magnetic attraction state, attracting the abutment. As the abutment rises under the magnetic attraction, one side of the abutment's inclined edge abuts against the protrusion at one end of the hook body. Simultaneously, the abutment's rise causes the abutment plate to rise as well. During the rise of the abutment plate, the abutment groove of the abutment plate disengages from the hook body. The abutment groove of the abutment plate no longer accommodates or abuts the hook body, and the elastic element elastically abuts against the side of the hook body away from the inclined edge. Thus, with the protrusion of the hook body being abutted against by the inclined edge of the abutment and the hook body disengaging from the abutment groove of the abutment plate, the hook body rotates and tilts away from the product's hook-feeding part, thereby unlocking the product. This invention uses a magnet to drive the abutment, which in turn effectively guides the hook body to lock the product's hook-feeding part. It is compact in design, provides a stable lock, and is easy to use. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0021] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[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. Therefore, a feature defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features.

[0023] Please see Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a locking assembly 100, including a housing 10, the housing 10 having a receiving cavity 102 inside, the receiving cavity 102 accommodating a hook 20 and a stop plate 30, the hook 20 and the stop plate 30 abutting against each other, the hook 20 being rotatably disposed in the receiving cavity 102, the stop plate 30 being slidably disposed in the receiving cavity 102, one end of the hook 20 having a protrusion 201, the other end of the hook 20 having a hook loop 202, and the stop plate 30... The side of the abutment plate 30 near the hook body 20 is provided with a bevel 304. The bevel 304 on one side of the abutment plate 30 abuts against the protrusion 201 at one end of the hook body 20. The top of the abutment plate 30 is provided with an abutment plate 301. The abutment plate 301 near the hook body 20 has an abutment groove 3011. An elastic element 40 is installed in the receiving cavity 102. The elastic element 40 abuts against the side of the hook body 20 away from the bevel 304. The top of the housing 10 is provided with a magnet 50. The magnet 50 is also located directly above the abutment plate 30.

[0024] In the locking assembly 100 provided in this embodiment, when the product needs to be locked, the magnet 50 is demagnetized. During the descent of the abutment 30 in the receiving cavity 102, the inclined edge 304 on one side of the abutment 30 abuts against the protrusion 201 at one end of the hook body 20. At the same time, when the abutment 30 descends, it drives the abutment plate 301 to descend as well. During the descent of the abutment plate 301, the abutment groove 3011 of the abutment plate 301 accommodates the abutment hook body 20, and the elastic member 40 provides elasticity. When the hook body 20 is pressed against the side away from the inclined edge 304, and the protrusion 201 of the hook body 20 is pressed against the inclined edge 304 on the side of the abutment plate 30, and the hook body 20 is accommodated and pressed against the abutment groove 3011 of the abutment plate 301, the hook body 20 rotates and tilts toward the product's hook supply part. When the hook body 20 rotates and tilts toward the product's hook supply part, the hook ring part 202 at the other end of the hook body 20 hooks the product's hook supply part to lock the product. When the product needs to be unlocked, the magnet 50 is in a magnetic attraction state, and the magnet 50 magnetically attracts the abutment 30. As the abutment 30 rises under the magnetic attraction of the magnet 50, the inclined edge 304 on one side of the abutment 30 abuts against the protrusion 201 at one end of the hook body 20. At the same time, as the abutment 30 rises, the abutting plate 301 also rises. During the rise of the abutting plate 301, the abutting groove 3011 of the abutting plate 301 disengages from the hook body 20. Thus, the abutting groove 3011 of the abutting plate 301 no longer accommodates and abuts the hook body 20, and the elastic member 40 elastically abuts against the side of the hook body 20 away from the inclined edge 304. Therefore, with the protrusion 201 of the hook body 20 abutted by the inclined edge 304 on one side of the abutment 30 and the hook body 20 disengaged by the abutting groove 3011 of the abutting plate 301, the hook body 20 rotates and tilts away from the hook portion of the product to unlock the product. This invention uses a magnet 50 to drive a stop plate 30, which in turn effectively guides the hook body 20 to supply the hook part of the locking product. It is compact in design, provides a stable lock, and is easy to use.

[0025] In some embodiments, the hook 20 is rotatably connected to the housing 10 via a pivot 203.

[0026] In practice: the hook body 20 is connected to the housing 10 via a rotating shaft 203. This arrangement allows the hook body 20 to rotate and tilt under the support and abutment of the abutment groove 3011 of the abutment plate 301.

[0027] In some embodiments, a slider 302 is provided at the rear of the abutment 30, a limiting rod 303 is provided at the bottom of the abutment 30, and a sliding groove 103 adapted to the slider 302 is provided on the housing 10. The slider 302 is located in the sliding groove 103. The sliding groove 103 includes a through groove 1031, which is located at the bottom of the sliding groove 103. The through groove 1031 is opened through the housing 10, and a crossbar 10311 is corresponding to the bottom of the through groove 1031. The crossbar 10311 is connected to the housing 10, and the limiting rod 303 is located in the through groove 1031.

[0028] In specific implementation: During the upward or downward movement of the abutment 30, the abutment 30 slides in the sliding groove 103 via the slider 302. As the abutment 30 moves up or down, it drives the limiting rod 303 to move up or down in the through groove 1031. Since the through groove 1031 has a fixed height and a crossbar 10311 blocks the bottom of the through groove 1031, the through groove 1031 can limit the upward or downward movement distance of the limiting rod 303. Because the upward or downward movement distance of the limiting rod 303 is limited, the upward or downward movement distance of the abutment 30 is also limited. This design allows for limiting the upward or downward movement distance of the abutment 30, enabling the abutment 30 to more accurately guide the hook body 20 to lock the product.

[0029] In some embodiments, a cover plate 101 is detachably connected to one side of the housing 10 where the receiving cavity 102 is provided.

[0030] In specific implementation: the cover plate 101 is connected to the side of the housing 10 where the receiving cavity 102 is provided, so the cover plate 101 can cover the parts in the receiving cavity 102 of the housing 10. With this arrangement, the cover can cover the parts in the receiving cavity 102 of the housing 10, preventing external dust from contaminating the parts in the receiving cavity 102 of the housing 10.

[0031] In some embodiments, the housing 10 is bolted to the cover plate 101.

[0032] In practice: the housing 10 is bolted to the cover plate 101, so the housing 10 and the cover plate 101 can be disassembled and assembled using bolts. This arrangement allows the housing 10 and the cover plate 101 to be disassembled and assembled, facilitating the maintenance of the parts in the housing cavity 102 of the housing 10.

[0033] In some embodiments, the magnet 50 is configured as an electromagnet 50.

[0034] In specific implementation: Magnet 50 is an electromagnet 50, which allows the attraction force of magnet 50 to be generated or canceled by a current switch. This configuration enables magnet 50, as an electromagnet 50, to generate magnetic attraction to the abutment 30, and also enables magnet 50, as an electromagnet 50, to deactivate the magnetic attraction and cancel the magnetic force on the abutment 30.

[0035] In some embodiments, the elastic element 40 is configured as a spring.

[0036] In practical implementation: if the elastic element 40 is a spring, then the elastic element 40 can be effectively used to elastically abut against the side of the hook body 20 away from the inclined side 304. Through this arrangement, the elastic element 40 can effectively provide elastic abutment.
