[0038] The spherical smart door lock in the related art has a complex internal structure, and unlocking requires the cooperation of multiple complex components, which is not conducive to reducing costs and makes the reliability and durability of the door lock poor.

[0039] In response to the above problems, an embodiment of the present application provides a spherical smart door lock that can be unlocked by identifying instructions. It has a simple and ingenious structure, which greatly reduces the manufacturing cost and improves the reliability and durability of the door lock.

[0040] The technical solution of the embodiments of the present application is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0041] Figure 1 It is a schematic diagram of the structure of a spherical smart door lock shown in an embodiment of the present application.

[0042] Please also see Figures 1 to 8 A spherical smart door lock 10 includes: a lock core 100, an inner handle 200 connected to one end of the lock core 100, and an outer handle 300 connected to the other end of the lock core 100.

[0043] The outer handle 300 includes an outer lock housing 400 connected to the lock core 100 , and a locking device 500 disposed in the outer lock housing 400 .

[0044] The locking device 500 includes a fixing member 510 , a rotating member 520 , a locking member 530 and a command recognition module 540 .

[0045] The fixing member 510 is installed in the outer lock housing 400, and the fixing member 510 is rotatably connected to one end of the rotating member 520. The other end of the rotating member 520 is connected to the lock cylinder 100, and the rotating member 520 is used to drive the lock cylinder 100 to unlock by rotating. The locking member 530 is arranged on the fixing member 510. The instruction recognition module 540 is drivingly connected to the locking member 530, and the instruction recognition module 540 is used to control the action of the locking member 530 to limit the rotation connection between the fixing member 510 and the rotating member 520.

[0046] It can be seen from this embodiment that the spherical smart door lock 10 provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a lock core 100, an inner handle 200 and an outer handle 300, the outer handle 300 includes an outer lock housing 400 and a locking device 500, and the locking device 500 includes a fixed member 510, a rotating member 520, a locking member 530 and a command recognition module 540. The fixed member 510 is installed in the outer lock housing 400, the fixed member 510 is rotatably connected to one end of the rotating member 520, the other end of the rotating member 520 is connected to the lock core 100, the locking member 530 is arranged on the fixed member 510, and the command recognition module 540 is drivingly connected to the locking member 530. It can be understood that when the locking member 530 is not in action, the fixed member 510 is rotatably connected to the rotating member 520, and the fixed member 510 cannot drive the rotating member 520 to rotate to unlock the lock core 100 in the locked state. After the instruction recognition module 540 receives the correct instruction input by the user, the instruction recognition module 540 controls the locking member 530 to act, so as to limit the rotational connection between the fixing member 510 and the rotating member 520. In this way, the user can rotate the outer lock housing 400 by hand, and the fixing member 510 can drive the rotating member 520 to rotate, thereby unlocking the lock cylinder 100. It can be seen that the spherical smart door lock 10 can complete the unlocking by recognizing the instruction, and its structure is simple and compact, which greatly reduces the manufacturing cost and improves the reliability and durability of the door lock.

[0047] Among them, the lock core 100 is used to be installed in the door lock installation opening opened on the door, and the lock core 100 has a lock tongue 110. In one embodiment, the lock tongue 110 of the lock core 100 extends outward under normal conditions, and the lock core 100 is in a locked state under normal conditions. The rotating member 520 drives the lock tongue 110 of the lock core 100 to retract inward by rotation to achieve unlocking. It can be understood that in some embodiments, the lock tongue 110 can be extended outward due to the elastic effect of the elastic member provided in the lock core 100, and the elastic member is compressed when the rotating member 520 drives the lock tongue 110 to retract inward by rotation. The structure of the lock core 100 can be referred to the description in the relevant technology, and will not be repeated here.

[0048] The inner handle 200 is connected to one end of the lock core 100 and is in a spherical structure. When the inner handle 200 is screwed, the lock tongue 110 of the lock core 100 can be retracted inward to achieve unlocking.

[0049] The outer handle 300 is connected to the end of the lock core 100 away from the inner handle 200, and is in a spherical structure. The outer handle 300 includes an outer lock housing 400 and a locking device 500, the outer lock housing 400 is connected to the lock core 100, and the locking device 500 is disposed in the outer lock housing 400.

[0050] The locking device 500 includes a fixing member 510, a rotating member 520, a locking member 530 and a command recognition module 540. In one embodiment, the fixing member 510 is a hemispherical shell structure, and the fixing member 510 can be an iron die-cast fixing member 510. The fixing member 510 is installed in the outer lock housing 400, and the fixing member 510 is fixedly connected to the outer lock housing 400. In one embodiment, the rotating member 520 can be an iron die-cast rotating member 520, and the rotating member 520 has a prismatic shaft 521, for example, the prismatic shaft 521 can be a quadrangular prism structure, and the end of the prismatic shaft 521 of the rotating member 520 is inserted into the lock core 100 and connected to the lock core 100, and the end of the rotating member 520 facing away from the prismatic shaft 521 is rotatably connected to the fixing member 510. In order to ensure the reliability of the rotational connection between the rotating member 520 and the fixed member 510 and improve the smoothness of the rotation of the rotating member 520 and the fixed member 510, in one embodiment, the rotating member 520 is provided with an annular rotation groove 522, and the fixed member 510 is provided with an annular rotation block 511. The annular rotation block 511 of the fixed member 510 is inserted into the annular rotation groove 522 and is rotationally connected to the rotating member 520. In this way, the reliability of the rotational connection between the rotating member 520 and the fixed member 510 is effectively ensured, and the smoothness of the rotation of the rotating member 520 and the fixed member 510 is improved.

[0051] See also Figure 7, the locking member 530 is arranged on the fixed member 510 and faces the rotating member 520, and the instruction recognition module 540 is drivingly connected to the locking member 530. The locking member 530 can be a driving member, and a limiting groove 523 is provided at one end of the rotating member 520 facing the fixed member 510, and the driving member is arranged toward the limiting groove 523. The driving member is used to respond to the control of the instruction recognition module 540, and is inserted into the limiting groove 523 to limit the rotational connection between the rotating member 520 and the fixed member 510. In one embodiment, the driving member has a retractable driving rod 531, and the driving rod 531 can be a cylindrical structure, and the limiting groove 523 and the driving rod 531, and the limiting groove 523 is a circular groove. When the driving member is not in motion, the driving rod 531 is not inserted into the limiting groove 523, and the driving rod 531 is in a retracted state. The driving member operates based on the principle of electromagnetic induction. After the command recognition module 540 sends a control signal, the driving member is activated, and the driving rod 531 is extended and inserted into the limit groove 523 due to the electromagnetic induction effect, thereby limiting the rotation connection relationship between the rotating member 520 and the fixed member 510 in the radial direction. In other words, after the driving member is activated, the fixed member 510 can drive the rotating member 520 to rotate synchronously through the driving member.

[0052] In one embodiment, the limiting groove 523 is provided in the central peripheral area of ​​the end of the rotating member 520 facing the fixed member 510, that is, the limiting groove 523 is not provided in the central area of ​​the end of the rotating member 520 facing the fixed member 510. The central area of ​​one end of the rotating member 520 is rotationally connected with the central area of ​​one end of the fixed member 510. It can be understood that when the driving rod 531 of the driving member is not inserted into the limiting groove 523, the fixed member 510 is rotationally connected with the rotating member 520. In this case, when the fixed member 510 is rotated, the fixed member 510 is in an idling state, and when the fixed member 510 is rotated, it cannot drive the rotating member 520 to rotate together. After the driving rod 531 of the driving member is inserted into the limiting groove 523, the rotational relationship between the rotating member 520 and the fixed member 510 will be limited by the driving rod 531. In this way, the connection and fixation between the rotating member 520 and the fixing member 510 is achieved. The user holds the outer lock shell 400 and twists it, and the rotating member 520 can be driven to rotate through the fixing member 510, and then the lock tongue 110 of the lock core 100 can be retracted inward through the rotating member 520 to achieve unlocking.

[0053] It should be noted that the above embodiment is described by taking the locking member 530 as the driving member as an example, but is not limited thereto. For example, the locking member 530 may be a clamping member, which is used to respond to the control of the instruction recognition module 540 to clamp the fixed member 510 and the rotating member 520 to limit the rotational connection between the rotating member 520 and the fixed member 510. For another example, the locking member 530 may be an attracting member, such as an electromagnet, which is used to respond to the control of the instruction recognition module 540 to attract and fix the rotating member 520 to limit the rotational connection between the rotating member 520 and the fixed member 510.

[0054] In one embodiment, please refer to Figures 4 to 8 , the instruction recognition module 540 includes a password recognition module 541. The password recognition module 541 is an annular plate structure, and the password recognition module 541 is installed in the fixing member 510. The password recognition module 541 is provided with a plurality of password input keys arranged in a ring, and the password input keys are exposed to the outer lock housing 400. It can be understood that the correct password is the correct input instruction for the instruction recognition module 540 to control the action of the locking member 530. By inputting the correct password, the instruction recognition module 540 can send a control signal to control the action of the locking member 530 to limit the rotational connection between the fixing member 510 and the rotating member 520. Further, the password recognition module 541 can be provided with a key cap 542 mounted on each password input key, the key cap 542 is an annular structure, and the key cap 542 can be a silicone key cap 542 to play a role of buffer protection.

[0055] Further, in order to ensure the connection stability between the password recognition module 541 and the fixing member 510, in one embodiment, the password recognition module 541 is provided with a positioning hole 543, and the fixing member 510 is provided with a positioning rod 512, and the positioning rod 512 is inserted in the positioning hole 543 and connected to the password recognition module 541. The positioning rod 512 is arranged at one end of the fixing member 510 facing away from the rotating member 520, and a plurality of positioning rods 512 can be provided, and a plurality of positioning rods 512 are evenly distributed in the edge area of ​​the fixing member 510. The password recognition module 541 can be provided with a plurality of positioning holes 543, and each positioning rod 512 is inserted in a positioning hole 543. In this way, the connection stability between the password recognition module 541 and the fixing member 510 is ensured, and the matching installation work of the password recognition module 541 and the fixing member 510 is also facilitated. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the connection between the password recognition module 541 and the fixing member 510 can also be achieved by screwing, bonding, hot melt connection, etc.

[0056] It should be noted that the above embodiment is described by taking the instruction recognition module 540 including the password recognition module 541 as an example, but is not limited thereto. For example, the instruction recognition module 540 may include a fingerprint recognition module, which sends a control signal by recognizing a correct fingerprint to control the action of the locking member 530 to limit the rotational connection between the fixed member 510 and the rotating member 520. For another example, the instruction recognition module 540 may include a voice recognition module, which sends a control signal by recognizing a correct voice to control the action of the locking member 530 to limit the rotational connection between the fixed member 510 and the rotating member 520. For another example, the instruction recognition module 540 may include an iris recognition module, which sends a control signal by recognizing a correct iris to control the action of the locking member 530 to limit the rotational connection between the fixed member 510 and the rotating member 520. It can be seen that the instruction recognition module 540 may include at least one of the password recognition module 541, the fingerprint recognition module, the voice recognition module, and the iris recognition module, and controls the action of the locking member 530 according to at least one correct input instruction to limit the rotational connection between the fixed member 510 and the rotating member 520. It is understandable that the instruction recognition module 540 may also include other types of recognition modules, which is not limited in this application.

[0057] Please also see Figure 3 and Figure 4 In one embodiment, the outer lock housing 400 includes an outer lock bottom shell 410 and an outer lock upper shell 420. The outer lock bottom shell 410 is connected to the lock core 100, the outer lock upper shell 420 is covered at the opening of the outer lock bottom shell 410 and connected to the outer lock bottom shell 410, and the fixing member 510 is installed in the outer lock bottom shell 410. Among them, the outer lock bottom shell 410 is a funnel-shaped structure, and the outer lock bottom shell 410 can be an aluminum die-cast outer lock bottom shell 410 to ensure structural strength. Among them, the outer lock upper shell 420 is a circular structure that matches the opening of the outer lock bottom shell 410, and the password input button set by the password recognition module 541 is exposed on the outer lock upper shell 420. The outer lock upper shell 420 can also be an aluminum die-cast outer lock upper shell 420 to ensure structural strength. Furthermore, in one embodiment, the outer lock upper shell 420 is threadedly connected to the outer lock bottom shell 410 , and the locking device 500 is accommodated in a cavity formed by the outer lock upper shell 420 and the outer lock bottom shell 410 .

[0058] Further, in order to ensure the connection stability between the outer lock bottom shell 410 and the fixing member 510, in one embodiment, the outer lock bottom shell 410 is provided with a fixing column 411, and the fixing member 510 is provided with a fixing groove 513, and the fixing column 411 is inserted in the fixing groove 513 and connected with the fixing member 510. The fixing column 411 can be arranged at the edge of the inner wall in the outer lock bottom shell 410, and a plurality of fixing columns 411 can be arranged, and a plurality of fixing columns 411 are evenly distributed at the edge of the inner wall in the outer lock bottom shell 410. The fixing member 510 can be provided with a plurality of fixing grooves 513, and each fixing column 411 is inserted in a fixing groove 513. In this way, the connection stability between the outer lock bottom shell 410 and the fixing member 510 is ensured, and the matching installation work between the outer lock bottom shell 410 and the fixing member 510 is also facilitated. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the connection between the outer lock bottom shell 410 and the fixing member 510 can also be achieved by screwing, bonding, hot melt connection, etc. It can be seen that the fixing column 411 inserted into the fixing groove 513 provided by the fixing member 510 effectively ensures the connection stability between the outer lock bottom shell 410 and the fixing member 510, thereby ensuring that the outer lock bottom shell 410 can effectively drive the fixing member 510 to rotate together when being twisted. In this way, after the locking member 530 is actuated, the user holds the outer lock housing 400 and twists it, and the fixing member 510 connected to the outer lock bottom shell 410 in the outer lock housing 400 can be used to drive the rotating member 520 to rotate, thereby unlocking the lock cylinder 100.

[0059] See also Figure 3In one embodiment, the spherical smart door lock 10 further includes a mechanical lock 600. The mechanical lock 600 is inserted into the outer lock housing 400, and the lock port 610 of the mechanical lock 600 is exposed from the outer lock housing 400. The end of the mechanical lock 600 away from the lock port 610 is provided with a rotatable and extended clamping joint 620.
