Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of building insulation and anti-theft technology, specifically a thermally broken, insulated, bay window enclosure structure with temperature compensation and self-locking functions. Background Technology
[0002] In buildings with many rooms, such as apartments or hotels, a perimeter podium is typically installed on the side of the building near the floor slab. All air conditioners for the corresponding floors are installed on this podium, with bay windows in each room providing access to the podium for installation, maintenance, and replacement. This setup greatly facilitates the installation and maintenance of air conditioners in multi-room buildings. However, this also brings a series of problems: Firstly, simply sealing the bay windows with covers lacks sufficient insulation, allowing heat to easily escape and affecting the overall indoor insulation. Secondly, since everyone on the same floor can access the podium through the bay windows, this creates a security risk of people on the same floor using the same windows to enter other rooms; simple covers are insufficient for security. Completely sealing the windows, while providing adequate security, severely hinders access for air conditioner maintenance and repair. Therefore, finding a sufficiently insulated, secure, and easily accessible enclosure for the bay windows is a pressing issue that needs to be addressed during construction. Summary of the Invention
[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a thermally broken insulated bay window enclosure structure with temperature compensation and self-locking functions. It can solve the technical problem of poor insulation and anti-theft effect of existing bay window positions. The self-locking structure enables quick locking and installation of the enclosure body and cover plate, which can only be unlocked from the top of the bay window, providing sufficient anti-theft effect. At the same time, the thermal insulation layer and heating components are used to achieve thermal break insulation and temperature compensation, ensuring the overall insulation effect of the room.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention employs the following technical solution: A thermally broken, insulated bay window enclosure structure with temperature compensation and self-locking functions includes a cover plate covering the top of the bay window. The top of the bay window has a groove for placing the cover plate, the cross-sectional dimension of which is larger than that of the bay window. The bottom of the cover plate has an enclosure body, and the side of the enclosure body has a receiving groove containing a heating component. The side of the enclosure body has multiple telescopic grooves, and a locking block is slidably connected to the telescopic groove. The inner wall of the bay window has multiple locking slots that are movably inserted with the locking blocks. A spring is provided between the locking block and the end of the telescopic groove. The end of the locking block has a wedge-shaped block that matches the inner wall of the bay window. The interior of the enclosure body has multiple limiting grooves that communicate with the telescopic grooves. A driving block that controls the lateral sliding of the locking block is slidably connected to the limiting groove. A power rod that matches the driving block is provided in the limiting groove. The power rod passes through the enclosure body and the cover plate from bottom to top and extends to the top of the cover plate. The bottom of the enclosure body has a base frame, and the exterior of the base frame is covered with an insulation layer adapted to the cross-sectional shape of the bay window.
[0005] Furthermore, the side of the lock block is provided with a sliding groove, one end of the drive block extends into the sliding groove and is slidably connected to the sliding groove. When the drive block slides, it contacts one end of the sliding groove and pushes the lock block to slide towards the inside of the telescopic groove.
[0006] Furthermore, the drive block has an L-shaped cross-section, with the lateral portion of the L-shape cooperating with the power rod, and the longitudinal portion of the L-shape extending into the slide groove and slidingly connected to the slide groove.
[0007] Furthermore, a guide rod is provided inside the telescopic groove, and the guide rod passes through the transverse portion of the L-shaped drive block and is slidably connected to it.
[0008] Furthermore, a rack is provided on the transverse portion of the L-shaped drive block, and the power rod passes through the closed body and the cover plate from bottom to top and is rotatably connected to both. A gear that meshes with the rack is provided at the bottom of the power rod.
[0009] Furthermore, the cover plate is provided with multiple countersunk holes, the top of the power rod extends into the countersunk holes, and a knob is slidably connected to the top of the power rod in a vertical direction, the knob being able to move vertically within the countersunk holes.
[0010] Furthermore, the top of the power rod is provided with a protrusion with a cross-sectional dimension larger than that of the power rod, the inside of the knob is provided with a wide groove and a narrow hole, the protrusion is slidably connected in the wide groove, the power rod is slidably connected in the narrow hole, the side wall of the protrusion is provided with multiple anti-rotation blocks, and the inner wall of the wide groove is provided with multiple anti-rotation grooves that are slidably connected to the anti-rotation blocks.
[0011] Furthermore, a hanging bracket is provided in the groove, the hanging bracket is located between the cover plate and the bottom of the groove, and multiple connecting rods are provided on the inner side of the hanging bracket. The connecting rods extend downward to the bottom of the window, and a bracket is provided between the bottoms of the multiple connecting rods. The bracket contacts the bottom of the insulation layer.
[0012] Furthermore, the heating component is a heating band, the top of the cover plate is provided with a mounting groove, a solar panel electrically connected to the heating band is fixed in the mounting groove, the top of the cover plate is provided with a gripping groove, the gripping groove is symmetrically located on both sides of the solar panel, and the top of the cover plate is provided with a temperature sensor electrically connected to the heating band.
[0013] Furthermore, the insulation layer is polyurethane foam or nano-insulation board.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: 1. This invention utilizes a wedge-shaped block at the end of the locking block to engage with the inner wall of the bay window. During installation, the locking block automatically retracts and resets, inserting into the lock groove to achieve automatic locking, making installation convenient. When opening is required, the window can only be unlocked from above the cover plate via a power rod controlling the drive block; it cannot be opened from below the building's apron. This provides sufficient anti-theft protection, significantly improving building security and the convenience of future maintenance and repairs of the air conditioning units within the apron.
[0015] 2. The insulation layer cuts off the cross-section of the bay window, blocking the thermal bridge at the bay window. The heating component replenishes the heat energy in the gaps of the inner wall of the bay window, preventing cold air from entering the room through the gaps and affecting the room temperature, thus ensuring the overall insulation effect of the house.

[0026] The present invention will be further illustrated below with reference to specific embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention. Furthermore, it should be understood that after reading the teachings of this invention, those skilled in the art can make various alterations or modifications to the invention, and these equivalent forms also fall within the scope defined in this application.
[0027] Reference Figures 1 to 3This invention describes a thermally broken, insulated bay window enclosure structure with temperature compensation and self-locking functions. The main structure includes a cover plate 2 covering the top of the bay window 1. The bay window 1 is an opening in the bay window area of a building for accessing the building's podium. The cover plate 2 is a rectangular steel plate or composite plate used to close the top opening of the bay window 1. A groove 3 is provided at the top of the bay window 1, and the cross-sectional dimension of the groove 3 is larger than that of the bay window 1. The cover plate 2 is placed in the groove 3, and the four sides of the groove 3 restrict the lateral movement of the cover plate 2, ensuring that the cover plate 2 can only be placed and removed vertically, preventing horizontal displacement and ensuring the sealing effect on the top opening of the bay window 1. The bottom of the cover plate 2 is fixed to a sealing body 4 by welding or bolts. The sealing body 4 is a rectangular block structure that matches the cross-sectional shape of the inner cavity of the bay window 1, and its four sides fit against the inner wall of the bay window 1. A receiving groove 5 is provided on the side of the sealing body 4, and a heating component is installed in the receiving groove 5. The heating component can generate heat when powered on, which heats the cold air that may seep in through the gap of the bay window 1, preventing cold air from entering the room through the bay window 1 and lowering the indoor temperature. This achieves heat replenishment and temperature compensation at the bay window 1 location, improving the overall thermal insulation effect of the building.
[0028] Reference Figure 8Multiple telescopic grooves 6 are symmetrically formed on the four sides of the enclosed main body 4. Each telescopic groove 6 is a rectangular slot formed horizontally. A locking block 7 is slidably connected in each telescopic groove 6. The locking block 7 is a rectangular block-shaped component that can slide back and forth in the telescopic groove 6 in the horizontal direction (i.e., perpendicular to the side of the enclosed main body 4). Multiple locking slots 8 are formed on the inner walls of the bay window 1 at the positions corresponding to the locking blocks 7. The locking slots 8 and the ends of the locking blocks 7 form a movable plug-in fit. A spring 9 is provided between the inner end face of the locking block 7 and the inner end face of the telescopic groove 6. The spring 9 is a compression spring that always applies a thrust to the locking block 7 that extends outward from the telescopic groove 6, so that the locking block 7 keeps its end protruding from the side of the enclosed main body 4 in a free state. A wedge-shaped block 10 is machined on the outer end face of the locking block 7. The wedge-shaped block 10 is an inclined structure on the outer end of the locking block 7, and its inclined surface faces downward from the enclosed main body 4 (i.e., towards the inner wall of the bay window 1 during installation). The self-locking working principle of the locking block 7 is as follows: During the process of placing the cover plate 2 and the bottom closing body 4 into the window 1 from top to bottom, the inclined surface of the wedge-shaped block 10 at the end of the locking block 7 first contacts the edge of the inner wall of the top of the window 1. As the closing body 4 continues to move downward, the inner wall of the window 1 generates a lateral thrust on the inclined surface of the wedge-shaped block 10. The horizontal component of this thrust pushes the locking block 7 to overcome the elastic force of the spring 9 and slide laterally toward the inside of the telescopic groove 6. The spring 9 is compressed, and multiple locking blocks 7 retract into their respective telescopic grooves 6 at the same time. The outer end face of the locking block 7 maintains sliding contact with the inner wall of the window 1, so that the closing body 4 can be smoothly placed downward into the window 1. When the closing body 4 moves downward until the locking block 7 is aligned with the locking groove 8 on the inner wall of the window 1, the outer end face of the locking block 7 is no longer supported and constrained by the inner wall of the window 1. Under the action of the reverse elastic force of the spring 9, the locking block 7 extends outward, automatically resets, and slides into the locking groove 8, realizing the automatic insertion and engagement of the locking block 7 and the locking groove 8. After the locking block 7 is inserted into the locking groove 8, it locks and fixes the vertical position of the sealing body 4 and the cover plate 2, preventing the sealing body 4 from moving upward and coming out, thus ensuring the firmness of the sealing of the bay window 1.
[0029] The enclosed main body 4 has multiple limiting grooves 11 inside, each groove extending horizontally. Each limiting groove 11 is connected to a corresponding telescopic groove 6. A drive block 12, which controls the lateral sliding of the locking block 7, is slidably connected within the limiting groove 11. A power rod 13, used in conjunction with the drive block 12, is also provided within the limiting groove 11. The power rod 13 is a vertically arranged long rod, its lower end extending into the limiting groove 11 to engage with the drive block 12. The rod extends from bottom to top through the enclosed main body 4 and the cover plate 2, with its upper end extending above the cover plate 2, allowing the operator to operate from above the cover plate 2. The unlocking operation works as follows: when the cover plate 2 needs to be opened, the operator operates the power rod 13 from above the cover plate 2. The lower end of the power rod 13 controls the lateral sliding of the drive block 12 within the limiting groove 11. As the drive block 12 slides laterally, it causes the locking block 7 to slide laterally towards the interior of the telescopic groove 6. Lock block 7 gradually exits from lock groove 8 until it is completely hidden inside telescopic groove 6, and lock block 7 is completely separated from lock groove 8. At this time, the vertical lock of the enclosed body 4 is released, and the operator can easily lift the cover plate 2 upwards to remove the enclosed body 4 from the bay window 1, thereby opening the bay window 1. This self-locking and unlocking structure means that the self-locking structure can only be unlocked from the top of the bay window (i.e., the indoor side) by operating the power rod 13. From the lower part of the building (i.e., the outdoor side), the top of the power rod 13 cannot be reached, so the lock block 7 cannot be unlocked, and the bay window 1 cannot be opened. This effectively prevents people from adjacent rooms from entering the building through the bay window 1 and then entering the room from the building, improving the security of the bay window 1 and providing an effective anti-theft effect.
[0030] A base frame 14 is fixed to the bottom of the enclosed main body 4 by welding or bolts. The base frame 14 is a frame structure and is fixed to the bottom surface of the enclosed main body 4. The base frame 14 is covered with an insulation layer 15. The dimensions of the insulation layer 15 are adapted to the cross-sectional shape of the bay window 1, and the four sides of the insulation layer 15 are tightly fitted to the inner wall of the bay window 1. The insulation layer 15 completely cuts off and seals the cross-section of the bay window 1, blocking the heat transfer path between the outdoor building skirt and the interior, eliminating the thermal bridge effect at the bay window 1, thereby improving the heat insulation effect between the outdoor building skirt and the interior, and further ensuring the overall heat insulation effect of the interior.
[0031] Preferably, a groove 16 is provided on the side of the locking block 7. The groove 16 is an elongated groove extending laterally along the locking block 7. One end of the driving block 12 extends into the groove 16 and is slidably connected to the groove 16. When the driving block 12 is not driven by the power rod 13, the end of the driving block 12 is located in the middle or near the outer end of the groove 16. During installation, when the wedge block 10 is squeezed by the inner wall of the window 1, causing the locking block 7 to automatically retract into the telescopic groove 6, the locking block 7 can slide relative to the driving block 12 due to the setting of the groove 16. The end of the driving block 12 slides relative to the driving block 12 within the groove 16. The lateral retraction movement of the locking block 7 will not interfere with the movement of the driving block 12, ensuring the normal operation of the self-locking function. When it is necessary to unlock the locking block 7, the drive block 12 is laterally slid by the power rod 13. The end of the drive block 12 moves to and contacts the inner end face of the slide groove 16, thereby pushing the locking block 7 to slide into the telescopic groove 6 against the elastic force of the spring 9 until the locking block 7 separates from the locking groove 8. The cooperation between the slide groove 16 and the drive block 12 ensures that the free contraction and active unlocking movements of the locking block 7 do not interfere with each other, and the unlocking operation is smooth and accurate.
[0032] Preferably, the drive block 12 has an L-shaped cross-section. The lateral portion of the L-shaped drive block 12 cooperates with the power rod 13 to receive the driving force transmitted by the power rod 13. The longitudinal portion of the L-shaped drive block 12 is bent and extends into the slide groove 16 on the side of the lock block 7, and is slidably connected with the slide groove 16. The power rod 13 applies a driving force to the lateral portion of the L-shaped drive block 12, causing the entire drive block 12 to slide laterally. The longitudinal portion of the L-shaped drive block 12 slides within the slide groove 16 and pushes the lock block 7 to move after reaching the inner end of the slide groove 16. The L-shaped structure allows the drive block 12 to maintain contact with both the power rod 13 and the lock block 7 simultaneously, effectively transmitting the driving force of the power rod 13 to the lock block 7, ensuring the smooth operation of the self-locking and unlocking functions.
[0033] Preferably, a guide rod 17 is horizontally welded and fixed inside the limiting groove 11. The guide rod 17 is a cylindrical optical shaft that passes through a guide hole opened on the L-shaped transverse portion of the drive block 12 and is slidably connected to the drive block 12. Since the limiting groove 11 also contains structures such as a power rod 13 in addition to the drive block 12, the cross-sectional dimension of the limiting groove 11 is larger than the cross-sectional dimension of the drive block 12, and the drive block 12 has a large movement gap within the telescopic groove 6. The guide rod 17 provides precise linear guidance for the transverse sliding of the drive block 12, preventing the drive block 12 from tilting or misaligning due to the gap during transverse sliding, ensuring that the drive block 12 can accurately transmit power to the lock block 7, and ensuring the smoothness and accuracy of unlocking the lock block 7.
[0034] Preferred, refer to Figures 5 to 7The drive block 12 has a rack 18 machined on its side of the L-shaped transverse portion, extending laterally. The power rod 13 passes through the enclosed body 4 and the cover plate 2 from bottom to top and is rotatably connected to both via bearings. A gear 19 is fixed to the bottom of the power rod 13 by welding or bolts, and the gear 19 meshes with the rack 18 to form a gear-rack transmission pair. When the operator rotates the power rod 13 from above the cover plate 2, the power rod 13 drives the gear 19 at the bottom to rotate synchronously. The gear 19 drives the rack 18 and the drive block 12 fixed to it to slide laterally through meshing transmission, thereby moving the locking block 7 to unlock. The gear-rack transmission method makes the sliding drive of the drive block 12 more stable, precise, and effortless; the operator only needs to rotate the power rod 13 to complete the unlocking or locking operation.
[0035] Preferably, the cover plate 2 has multiple countersunk holes 20, which are stepped holes. The top of each power rod 13 extends upward into the corresponding countersunk hole 20. A knob 21 is slidably connected to the top of the power rod 13 vertically, and the knob 21 can move up and down vertically within the countersunk hole 20. When it is necessary to unlock the power rod 13, the operator pinches the knob 21 with their fingers and pulls it upward. The knob 21 slides upward along the power rod 13 and is pulled out of the countersunk hole 20, making it easy for the operator to hold the knob 21 for rotation. In the self-locking state of the window 1, the knob 21 slides downward until it is completely hidden inside the countersunk hole 20, with the top surface of the knob 21 flush with or lower than the top surface of the cover plate 2. In this way, the presence of the knob 21 is not easily observed from the outside, and there is no possibility of accidental activation of the knob 21 and the power rod 13, thereby maintaining the stability of the self-locking state of the window 1 and further improving the robustness and anti-theft concealment of the self-locking structure.
[0036] Preferred, refer to Figure 4A protrusion 22 is welded and fixed to the top of the power rod 13. The cross-sectional dimension (outer diameter) of the protrusion 22 is larger than that of the power rod 13. The knob 21 has a wide groove 23 and a narrow hole 24 that are connected internally. The inner diameter of the wide groove 23 matches the outer diameter of the protrusion 22, and the inner diameter of the narrow hole 24 matches the outer diameter of the power rod 13. The protrusion 22 is slidably connected within the wide groove 23, and the rod body of the power rod 13 is slidably connected within the narrow hole 24. When the knob 21 is pulled upwards, the protrusion 22 slides downwards relative to the top of the power rod 13. When the lower end face of the protrusion 22 contacts the bottom of the wide groove 23, the knob 21 cannot be pulled upwards further, thus limiting the maximum sliding distance of the knob 21 relative to the power rod 13 and preventing the knob 21 from detaching from the top of the power rod 13. Multiple anti-rotation blocks 25 are fixed to the outer wall of the protrusion 22 by welding or integral molding. The anti-rotation blocks 25 are protruding strips extending along the axial direction of the protrusion 22. Multiple anti-rotation grooves 26 are machined on the inner wall of the wide groove 23, and the anti-rotation grooves 26 are slidably connected to the anti-rotation blocks 25. When the knob 21 is pulled upward, the operator rotates the knob 21, and the cooperation between the anti-rotation blocks 25 and the anti-rotation grooves 26 transmits the rotational torque of the knob 21 to the protrusion 22, thereby causing the power rod 13 to rotate synchronously. The cooperation between the anti-rotation blocks 25 and the anti-rotation grooves 26 simultaneously realizes the free sliding movement of the knob 21 along the axial direction of the power rod 13 and the synchronous rotational movement of the knob 21 and the power rod 13, resulting in a simple and reliable structure.
[0037] Preferred, refer to Figure 9 A hanging bracket 27 is placed inside the recess 3. The hanging bracket 27 is a rectangular frame structure, located between the bottom surface of the cover plate 2 and the bottom wall of the recess 3. The weight of the cover plate 2 presses the hanging bracket 27 tightly and fixes it inside the recess 3. Multiple connecting rods 28 are welded and fixed to the inner side of the hanging bracket 27. The connecting rods 28 are vertical, flat, long rods that fit against the inner wall of the bay window 1 and extend downward to the bottom of the bay window 1. A bracket 29 is welded and fixed between the bottom of the multiple connecting rods 28. The bracket 29 is a frame that matches the shape of the bottom surface of the insulation layer 15. The upper surface of the bracket 29 is in contact with the bottom surface of the insulation layer 15, providing support for the bottom insulation layer 15. The mounting bracket 27 suspends and supports the bracket 29 at the bottom of the insulation layer 15 via the connecting rod 28, so that the insulation layer 15 is firmly clamped between the base frame 14 and the bracket 29, preventing the insulation layer 15 from loosening and falling off from the bottom of the enclosed body 4 during long-term use, and ensuring the durability of the thermal insulation of the bay window 1. Preferably, a sealing strip can be provided at the bottom of the cover plate 2 to improve the sealing effect of the cover plate 2 on the top of the bay window 1, avoid heat exchange at the frame formed by the bracket 29, connecting rod 28, and mounting bracket 27, and ensure the sealing effect of the bay window 1.
[0038] Preferably, the heating component is a heating band 30. The heating band 30 is an electric heating tape or electric heating ribbon, embedded in the receiving groove 5 on the side of the enclosed body 4, with its heating surface facing the gap between the enclosed body 4 and the inner wall of the bay window 1. A mounting groove 31 is provided on the top of the cover plate 2, and a solar panel 32 is fixedly installed in the mounting groove 31 by adhesive or bolts. The solar panel 32 is electrically connected to the heating band 30 through wires to form an independent power supply circuit. Preferably, an energy storage battery can also be provided to work with the solar panel 32 to store the electricity generated by the solar panel 32, so as to provide power supply even in weather with insufficient sunlight. The solar panel 32 receives sunlight shining on the bay window and performs photoelectric conversion to generate electricity, which is directly supplied to the heating band 30 to generate heat, serving as the power source for the heating band 30 to perform temperature compensation. Using solar power eliminates the need for additional mains power consumption, making the temperature compensation function of this device more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly. A holding groove 33 is also provided on the top of the cover plate 2, and the holding groove 33 is symmetrically located on both sides of the solar panel 32. The grip groove 33 provides hand grip space for the operator, making it easy for the operator to insert their fingers into the grip groove 33 to grasp the cover plate 2 and pull it up to open, further improving the convenience of operation.
[0039] Preferably, a temperature sensor electrically connected to the heating strip 30 is also installed on the top of the cover plate 2. The temperature sensor is used to detect the indoor temperature above the bay window 1 in real time. When the temperature sensor detects that the temperature above the bay window 1 is lower than the set value, the signal is transmitted to the PLC control system, and the control system automatically starts the heating strip 30 to heat the bay window 1. When the temperature rises above the set value, the control system automatically turns off the heating strip 30. Through the cooperation of the temperature sensor and the PLC control system, automatic adjustment and compensation of the indoor bay window temperature is achieved, eliminating the need for manual opening and closing control, and further improving the convenience and accuracy of temperature compensation control.
[0040] Preferably, the insulation layer 15 is made of polyurethane foam or nano-insulation board. Polyurethane foam has excellent thermal insulation performance and a certain structural strength, which can effectively seal and fill the cross-section of the bay window 1 and block heat. Nano-insulation board is a super thermal insulation material based on a nanoporous structure. It has an extremely low thermal conductivity and better thermal insulation effect. It can achieve efficient blocking of thermal bridges at the bay window 1 with a small thickness, further improving the thermal insulation effect.
[0041] Example: A thermally broken, insulated bay window enclosure structure with temperature compensation and self-locking functions is disclosed. The bay window 1 has a groove 3 at its top, and a cover plate 2 is placed within the groove 3. A sealing body 4 is fixed to the bottom of the cover plate 2. Multiple telescopic grooves 6 are formed on the sides of the sealing body 4. Locking blocks 7 and springs 9 are installed within the telescopic grooves 6. A wedge-shaped block 10 is integrally formed at the outer end of the locking block 7, and a corresponding locking groove 8 is formed on the inner wall of the bay window 1. A sliding groove 16 is formed on the side of the locking block 7. The longitudinal portion of an L-shaped drive block 12 extends into the sliding groove 16, and a rack 18 that meshes with a gear 19 at the bottom of a power rod 13 is welded and fixed to the transverse portion. A guide rod 17 is welded and fixed within the telescopic groove 6, passing through the drive block 12. A protrusion 22 is welded to the top of the power rod 13, and an anti-rotation block 25 is integrally formed and fixed to the outside of the protrusion 22. A knob 21 has a wide groove 23 and a narrow hole 24. An anti-rotation groove 26 is formed on the inner wall of the wide groove 23, which slides in cooperation with the anti-rotation block 25. The knob 21 is hidden in the countersunk hole 20 of the cover plate 2. A base frame 14 is welded and fixed to the bottom surface of the enclosed body 4, and the base frame 14 is covered with a polyurethane insulation layer 15. A hanging bracket 27 is provided in the groove 3, and the hanging bracket 27 is connected to the bottom bracket 29 via the connecting rod 28 to support the insulation layer 15. A heating belt 30 is glued or bolted to the side receiving groove 5 of the enclosed body 4. A solar panel 32 and a temperature sensor are fixed to the top of the cover plate 2. During installation, the enclosed body 4 is aligned with the window 1 and pushed down. The wedge block 10 is automatically retracted by the pressure of the inner wall of the window 1. When it reaches the locking groove 8, the spring 9 pushes the locking block 7 to automatically pop out and insert into the locking groove 8 to lock. During unlocking, the knob 21 is pulled out from the top of the cover plate 2 and rotated.
