Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of locks, and in particular to an electronic intelligent padlock. Background Art
[0002] In the field of modern security, electronic smart padlocks, as an upgraded alternative to traditional mechanical padlocks, have brought users greater convenience and stronger confidentiality with their unlocking methods that are free from the restrictions of traditional keys, such as card swiping, fingerprint recognition and other technologies. They have been widely used in many scenarios, including homes, offices, logistics warehousing, and shared equipment.
[0003] However, although the electronic smart padlock has achieved intelligent changes in the unlocking method, it still relies on mechanical structure to complete the unlocking and locking actions. The matching accuracy and reliability of the lock tongue and lock nose are directly related to the performance of the entire padlock. In actual use, due to the complex and diverse environment in which the padlock is located, impurities such as dust and water vapor can easily invade the interior of the lock body, or after long-term and frequent opening and closing operations, the mechanical parts of the lock tongue and lock nose may be worn and deformed, which often leads to the problem of the lock tongue getting stuck. Once the lock tongue is stuck, even if the electronic smart padlock has advanced electronic unlocking functions such as card swiping and fingerprint recognition, it cannot successfully complete the unlocking operation, which will cause great inconvenience and trouble in actual production and life.

[0035] In this embodiment, the limiting assembly includes a slider 111, a limiting plate 112 and a second spring 113. The slider 111 is slidably arranged in the housing 100 along the second direction. The first locking tongue 102 is slidably arranged on the slider 111 along the second direction. The driving mechanism can drive the slider 111 to slide along the second direction. There are two limiting plates 112. The two limiting plates 112 are slidably arranged on the slider 111 along a third direction. The third direction is perpendicular to the second direction. The two limiting plates 112 are located at two ends of the first locking tongue 102 in the first direction. The first locking tongue 102 is provided with a groove 114 on the two inclined surfaces, and the bottom surface of the groove 114 is parallel to the corresponding inclined surface on the first locking tongue 102. Each limiting plate 112 is an L-shaped plate composed of a long plate and a short plate. The two inclined surfaces on the first locking tongue 102 are separated from each other from the side close to the first spring 105 to the side away from the first spring 105.

The coil spring 144 does not store force at this time, and a normal amount of the first lock rope 104 is left outside the shell 100. Then the lock nose 101 is inserted into the slot. At this time, the motor 131 can be started through the intelligent module 152. The forward rotation of the motor 131 drives the rotating ring 132 to rotate, and the rotating ring 132 drives the disk 134 to rotate. The rotation of the disk 134 drives the slider 111 to move along the second direction toward the lock nose 101 through the baffle 133. The slider 111 drives the first lock tongue 102 to push the second lock tongue 103 toward the lock nose 101 through the first spring 105. Finally, the second lock tongue 103 is engaged with the lock nose 101.
[0047] If it is necessary to extend the length of the first locking rope 104 outside the shell 100, the multiple rotating rings 148 are rotated at this time so that the through groove on each rotating ring 148 rotates to the position of the corresponding protrusion on the pressing column 145, and the pressing column 145 is pressed. After the pressing column 145 abuts against the positioning ring 146, it pushes the positioning ring 146 away from the rotating drum 141. At this time, the fourth spring 147 is compressed, the block is separated from the slot, and then the first locking rope 104 outside the shell is pulled. The first locking rope 104 is pulled out of the shell 100 and can drive the rotating drum 141 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating drum 141 causes the coil spring 144 to accumulate force. When the connecting column 110 abuts against the limiting plate 112, the first locking rope 104 will not be pulled out again.
[0048] When unlocking, the motor 131 rotates in the opposite direction and drives the slider 111 to move away from the lock nose 101. The slider 111 drives the first lock tongue 102 to move, and the first spring 105 is stretched. After the first lock tongue 102 is subjected to the tension, it slides relative to the slider 111. At the same time, the slider 111 drives the limiting plate 112 to move synchronously. The limiting plate 112 slides in the groove 114, and the two limiting plates 112 move away from each other under the guidance of the inclined surface of the first lock tongue 102. The second spring 113 is stretched, and finally the distance between the two limiting plates 112 is greater than the diameter of the through hole 115; then the unlocking button 145 can be used to allow the rotating drum 141 to release the second lock rope 142, and then the first lock rope 104 is pulled to pull the connecting column 110 out of the housing 100, and the stud 117 is rotated to separate the stud 117 from the connecting column 110, and the lock can be unlocked at this time.
[0049] After the stud 117 is separated from the connecting column 110, the push column 118 moves away from the positioning block 119 under the action of the third spring 120. At the same time, the two positioning blocks 119 move away from each other and extend out of the connecting column 110 under the action of the third spring 120. The two positioning blocks 119 can be engaged with the shell 100 to prevent the connecting column 110 from being retracted into the inside of the shell 100 under the action of the coil spring 144.
[0050] The technical features of the above embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0051] The above-described embodiments only express several implementation methods of the present invention, and the description thereof is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the present invention.
