[0053] In the following, only some exemplary embodiments are briefly described. As those skilled in the art will appreciate, the described embodiments may be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit or scope of the present application. Therefore, the drawings and descriptions are considered to be exemplary and non-restrictive in nature.
[0054] Figure 1-Figure 6 FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a smart lock 100 for replacing an electronic component 120 by a key according to an embodiment of the present application. Figure 1-Figure 6 As shown, the smart lock 100 may include:
[0055] Housing 110;
[0056] An electronic component 120, which is detachably disposed on the housing 110;
[0057] A locking assembly 130, which is disposed in the housing 110, and through which the electronic assembly 120 is locked on the housing 110;
[0058] The key is adapted to the locking assembly 130 , and the locking assembly 130 is controlled by the key.
[0059] In this embodiment, when the electronic component 120 needs to be disassembled, the key is inserted into the keyhole on the housing 110, and the key is turned counterclockwise to rotate the locking component 130, so that part of the locking component 130 is separated from the electronic component 120. After the locking component 130 is separated from the electronic component 120, the housing 110 lifts up the electronic component 120, so as to facilitate the replacement of the electronic component 120. The locking component 130 is controlled by the key. When the electronic component 120 is installed, the end of the electronic component 120 away from the locking component 130 is pre-inserted into the housing 110, and after the key is turned clockwise, the end of the electronic component 120 close to the locking component 130 is pressed into the housing 110, and then the key is turned counterclockwise again, so that the locking component 130 is locked with the electronic component 120 again.
[0060] By controlling the locking assembly 130 with a key, the electronic assembly 120 can be quickly installed and removed, and the electronic assembly 120 can be easily repaired and the battery replaced. At the same time, the password electronic lock and the fingerprint electronic lock can be switched, thereby meeting the diverse needs of users and reducing the workload and the waste of resources for purchasing new door locks.
[0061] Furthermore, the electronic component 120 is a common electronic lock intelligent unlocking module on the market. The electronic component 120 is connected to the electronic lock unlocking circuit through a connector, which is convenient for replacing different electronic components 120 (such as password unlocking, fingerprint unlocking, etc.).
[0062] like Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment,
[0063] The housing 110 has an opening that matches the shape of the electronic component 120 . When the electronic component 120 is mounted on the housing 110 , the electronic component 120 is embedded in the housing 110 through the opening, and the surface of the electronic component 120 is flush with the surface of the housing 110 .
[0064] In this embodiment, when the electronic component 120 is disposed in the housing 110, the electronic component 120 is embedded in the opening, thereby ensuring that the surface of the electronic component 120 is flush with or higher than the surface of the housing 110, thereby facilitating the user to input a password or verify a fingerprint.
[0065] like Figure 5-Figure 6 As shown, in one embodiment,
[0066] The electronic assembly 120 includes:
[0067] A housing 121, which is detachably disposed in the housing 110, and has two first slots 122, and a portion of the locking assembly 130 is engaged with the first slots 122;
[0068] The fixing block 123 is disposed at one end of the housing 121 away from the first slot 122 .
[0069] In this embodiment, the housing 121 has an electronic module of a common electronic lock on the market, which will not be described in detail here;
[0070] One end of the housing 121 has two first slots 122, which facilitate the locking assembly 130 to lock the housing 121. When installing, insert one end of the housing 121 with the fixing block 123 into the opening of the housing 110 in advance, so that the end of the housing 121 with the fixing block 123 is pre-contacted with the housing 110. After installation, insert the key into the keyhole, rotate the locking assembly 130 counterclockwise and fix it. After rotation, press the end of the housing 121 with the first slot 122 into the housing 110, release the key at the same time, so that part of the locking assembly 130 is inserted into the first slot 122, thereby completing the locking of the housing 121.
[0071] Furthermore, when installing the shell 121, a key is not required. After pre-inserting one end of the shell 121 having the fixing block 123 into the opening of the shell 110, the end of the shell 121 having the first slot 122 is tilted, and the end having the first slot 122 is pressed into the shell 110, so that the locking assembly 130 is inserted into the first slot 122.
[0072] like Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, in one embodiment, it also includes:
[0073] The protrusion 111 is disposed inside the housing 110. When the housing 121 is located inside the housing 110, the protrusion 111 is in contact with the fixing block 123, and the protrusion 111 is located above the fixing block 123;
[0074] The first spring 112 is disposed inside the housing 110 . When the housing 121 is located inside the housing 110 , the first spring 112 fits the housing 121 .
[0075] In this embodiment, when the housing 110 is installed, the fixing block 123 is pressed under the protruding portion 111 in advance, and then the end of the housing 121 having the first slot 122 is pressed into the housing 110;
[0076] When the shell 121 is pressed into the housing 110, the first spring 112 fits with the shell 121 and contracts. When the part of the inserted key-controlled locking assembly 130 is disengaged from the first slot 122, the first spring 112 relaxes, so that the end of the shell 121 with the first slot 122 is disengaged from the housing 110, which facilitates the installation and disassembly of the shell 121.
[0077] like Figure 2-Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment,
[0078] The locking assembly 130 includes:
[0079] A rotating block 131, wherein the rotating block 131 is disposed in the housing 110;
[0080] A lock core 132, which is disposed in the housing 110, and a rotating block 131 is disposed on the lock core 132, and a key hole is provided on the lock core 132, and the key hole is adapted to a key;
[0081] The movable block 133 is disposed in the housing 110 and is fitted with the rotating block 131. When the rotating block 131 rotates, the movable block 133 moves horizontally.
[0082] A second spring 134, the second spring 134 is disposed between the movable block 133 and the housing 110;
[0083] The clamping block 135 is disposed on the movable block 133 , and the clamping block 135 is correspondingly engaged with the first clamping slot 122 .
[0084] In this embodiment, the key is inserted into the lock core 132 through the key hole, and the lock core 132 is rotated by the key, thereby pushing the movable block 133 to move. The card block 135 is fixedly arranged on the movable block 133, and the number of the card blocks 135 corresponds to the number of the first card slots 122. The card block 135 moves horizontally with the movable block 133. When the key controls the lock core 132 to rotate counterclockwise, the second spring 134 contracts, thereby causing the card block 135 to escape from the first card slot 122, which is convenient for the disassembly of the housing 121. When the key is released, the second spring 134 relaxes, thereby resetting the movable block 133, and then the lock core 132 rotates the block 131 to drive the lock core 132 to reset. The setting of the spring 134 allows the key to control the movement of the movable block 133 through the lock core 132, and then control the locking and separation between the card block 135 and the first card slot 122, thereby realizing the locking and disassembly of the shell 121. When the shell 121 is pressed into the shell 110, the card block 135 and the first card slot 122 move, thereby driving the movable block 133 to move, so that the card block 135 is stuck in the first card slot 122. When the card block 135 is stuck in the first card slot 122, the second spring 134 contracts. When the card block 135 is stuck in the first card slot 122, the second spring 134 relaxes, so that the card block 135 is pressed tightly against the first card slot 122, thereby realizing the locking of the shell 121.
[0085] like Figure 2-Figure 5 As shown, in one embodiment,
[0086] The cross section of the clamping block 135 is a triangular structure, the cross section of the first clamping slot 122 is an inverted “L”-shaped structure, and the first clamping slot 122 has a hypotenuse that matches the hypotenuse of the clamping block 135 .
[0087] In this embodiment, the first card slot 122 is an inverted L-shaped structure. When the housing 110 is pressed into the housing 121, the card block 135 moves along the vertical groove of the first card slot 122. At this time, the second spring 134 contracts. When the card block 135 enters the transverse groove of the first card slot 122, the second spring 134 relaxes, and the card block 135 is pressed tightly into the transverse groove of the first card slot 122, so that the housing 121 is locked into the housing 110.
[0088] Furthermore, the first card slot 122 and the card block 135 have mutually adapted bevels. When the card block 135 enters the vertical slot, the bevel of the card block 135 fits with the bevel on the first card slot 122, so that when the card block 135 moves from the vertical slot to the horizontal slot, the movable block 133 moves toward the direction of the second spring 134, so that when the card block 135 enters the horizontal slot, the second spring 134 relaxes, so that the card block 135 can be fixed in the horizontal slot of the first card slot 122;
[0089] When the key is inserted into the lock cylinder 132 , the rotating block 131 controls the movable block 133 to move horizontally, so that the card block 135 re-enters the vertical groove from the horizontal groove of the first card groove 122 . At this time, the first spring 112 lifts up the end of the housing 121 with the first card groove 122 .
[0090] like Figure 2-Figure 5 As shown, in one embodiment,
[0091] The movable block 133 has a stepped notch, and the rotating block 131 has a protrusion 139 matched with the stepped notch.
[0092] In this embodiment, the cross-section of the rotating block 131 is circular, and the cross-section of the protrusion 139 is semicircular. The cross-section radius of the protrusion 139 is the same as that of the rotating block 131. In the initial state, the plane of the protrusion 139 fits with the movable block 133. When the key controls the lock cylinder 132 to rotate, the plane of the protrusion 139 rotates, and the protrusion 139 fits with the stepped notch of the movable block 133. When the protrusion 139 rotates, it pushes the movable block 133 to move, thereby causing the card block 135 to disengage from the horizontal groove of the first card groove 122 and contract the second spring 134.
[0093] like Figure 2-Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment,
[0094] The movable block 133 has a spring mounting portion, and the second spring 134 is sleeved on the spring mounting portion.
[0095] In this embodiment, the spring mounting portion facilitates the installation of the second spring 134 between the housing 110 and the movable block 133 , and plays a certain guiding and fixing role for the second spring 134 .
[0096] In one embodiment,
[0097] The locking assembly 130 further includes:
[0098] A limit slider 136, which is located below the movable block 133, has a limit groove, and fits the limit slider 136 with the protrusion 139;
[0099] A limit block 137, the limit block 137 is disposed inside the housing 110, and the limit block 137 is located in the limit groove;
[0100] The third spring 138 is disposed between the limiting slider 136 and the housing 110 .
[0101] In this embodiment, when the key controls the rotating block 131 to rotate counterclockwise, the movable block 133 contracts the second spring 134 and the third spring 138 expands, so that the limit slider 136 moves in the opposite direction of the movable block 133. Conversely, when the second spring 134 expands, it pushes the movable block 133 to move, so that the rotating block 131 rotates clockwise. At this time, the limit slider 136 moves in the opposite direction of the movable block 133, and the third spring 138 contracts, thereby ensuring the stability of the rotating block 131 when rotating.
[0102] Furthermore, the lock core 132 also has a spring assembly inside, so as to ensure that the rotating block 131 can be reset in time when the rotation force applied to the key stops;
[0103] Furthermore, the stiffness coefficient of the second spring 134 is greater than the stiffness coefficient of the third spring 138 , thereby ensuring that the third spring 138 will not push the rotating block 131 to rotate, thereby causing the movable block 133 to move.
[0104] like Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, it also includes:
[0105] The protective cover 124 is disposed on the housing 110 . The housing 110 has a through hole adapted to the key hole, and the protective cover 124 is located at the through hole.
[0106] In this embodiment, the key hole is protected by providing a protective cover to prevent dust from accumulating in the key hole and affecting subsequent use.
[0107] The functions of the modules in the devices in the embodiments of the present invention can be found in the corresponding descriptions of the above methods, which will not be described in detail here.
