Description

Technical Field

[0002] With the rapid development of smart home technology, smart locks, due to their convenience and high security, have been widely used in various scenarios such as residences and offices, gradually replacing traditional mechanical door locks as the mainstream security locks. Currently, the unlocking modes of existing smart locks on the market are mainly divided into two types: mechanical unlocking and smart unlocking. Smart unlocking methods include various mainstream forms such as fingerprint recognition unlocking, digital password unlocking, and IC card induction unlocking, which can meet users' daily convenient access needs; while traditional mechanical unlocking still uses physical keys to open, and is generally retained as an emergency backup unlocking structure.

[0003] However, in actual daily use, traditional physical keys are very easy to forget to carry, lose accidentally, or misplace. If a user goes out without carrying a key, even if the smart unlocking function has abnormal conditions such as insufficient power, recognition failure, or system lag, it will not be able to open the door normally by mechanical means, which greatly affects the convenience of the user's entry and exit. Summary of the Invention

The smart unlocking unit consists of an electronic drive component and a smart password component. The smart password component uses intelligent identification to complete identity verification. After successful identity verification, the electronic drive component drives the first transmission rod to rotate, which in turn drives the bolt assembly to rotate, thereby causing the bolt assembly to extend and retract. The mechanical unlocking unit consists of a mechanical drive component and a mechanical password component. The mechanical drive component uses a rotating digital disk to achieve password calibration and alignment to release the locking limit on the mechanical drive component. Then, by rotating the mechanical drive component, the first transmission rod is driven to rotate, which in turn drives the bolt assembly to rotate, thereby causing the bolt assembly to extend and retract. Furthermore, the mechanical drive component and the electronic drive component are connected to the first transmission rod in a selective manner to avoid interference between the mechanical unlocking unit and the smart unlocking unit.

[0021] Example 1: With the rapid development of smart home technology, smart locks, due to their convenience and high security, have been widely used in various scenarios such as residences and offices, gradually replacing traditional mechanical door locks as the mainstream security locks. Currently, the unlocking modes of existing smart locks on the market are mainly divided into two types: mechanical unlocking and smart unlocking. Smart unlocking methods include various mainstream forms such as fingerprint recognition unlocking, digital password unlocking, and IC card induction unlocking, which can meet users' daily convenient access needs; while traditional mechanical unlocking still uses physical keys to open, and is generally retained as an emergency backup unlocking structure.

[0022] However, in actual daily use, traditional physical keys are very easy to forget to carry, lose accidentally, or misplace. If a user goes out without carrying a key, even if the smart unlocking function has abnormal conditions such as insufficient power, recognition failure, or system lag, it will not be able to open the door normally by mechanical means, which greatly affects the convenience of the user's entry and exit.

[0023] Please refer to the attached document. Figure 1 To be continued Figure 8 As shown, the first direction X of this application refers to the height direction of the smart lock 10, that is, the direction from top to bottom or from bottom to top. In this application, the mechanical drive component 200 is positioned higher than the mechanical password component 400, and the mechanical password component 400 is positioned lower than the mechanical drive component 200. The second direction Y of this application refers to the width direction of the smart lock 10, that is, the direction from front to back or from back to front. In this application, the front lock 600 is positioned forward of the rear lock 700, and the rear lock 700 is positioned backward of the front lock 600. The third direction Z of this application refers to the length direction of the smart lock 10, that is, the direction from left to right or from right to left.

[0024] Appendix Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of one structure of the smart lock 10 of this application, attached. Figure 2 This is another structural schematic diagram of the smart lock 10 of this application. Please refer to the attached diagram. Figure 1 and appendix Figure 2 As shown, the smart lock 10 of this application includes a lock body 100, which is installed inside the door. The smart lock 10 unlocks or locks by the relative movement between the lock body 100 and the door.

[0025] Appendix Figure 8 This is a schematic diagram of one structure of the lock body 100 of this application. Please refer to the attached diagram. Figure 8As shown, the lock body 100 of this application includes a first transmission assembly 120, a latch assembly 110, and a first transmission rod 130. The first transmission rod 130 is arranged along the second direction Y. The first transmission rod 130 is connected to the latch assembly 110 through the first transmission assembly 120 to drive the latch assembly 110 to perform a telescopic opening and closing action. Furthermore, the latch assembly 110 includes an oblique latch and an outer latch. When the oblique latch and the outer latch move outward along the third direction Z, locking can be achieved. When the oblique latch and the outer latch move inward along the third direction Z, unlocking can be achieved. Under the drive of the first transmission assembly 120 of this application, the oblique latch and the outer latch can be locked simultaneously. The lock body 100 of this application further includes a third housing component 140, which includes a fifth housing 141 and a sixth housing 142 arranged sequentially at intervals along the second direction Y. The fifth housing 141 and the sixth housing 142 are connected to form a receiving cavity located within the third housing component 140. The first transmission assembly 120 and the latch assembly 110 are both disposed within the receiving cavity of the third housing component 140. The third housing component 140 has an opening on one side along the second direction Y. The lock body 100 also includes a stop bar 150, which covers the opening. The length of the stop bar 150 in the first direction X is longer than that of the third housing component 140. The lock body 100 is connected to the door through the stop bar 150.

[0026] Furthermore, the first transmission assembly 120 includes a lock cylinder, and the first transmission rod 130 includes two sections, namely a first transmission branch rod and a second transmission branch rod. The first transmission branch rod is connected to the mechanical drive assembly 200, and the second transmission branch rod is connected to the electronic drive assembly 300. The lock cylinder is connected to other components in the first transmission assembly 120. The lock cylinder can only form a transmission with one of the first transmission branch rod and the second transmission branch rod. That is, when the first transmission branch rod is driven to rotate by the mechanical drive assembly 200, the second transmission branch rod does not rotate.

[0027] Please refer to the attached document. Figure 1 and appendix Figure 2As shown, the smart lock 10 of this application also includes a mechanical drive assembly 200 and an electronic drive assembly 300. The mechanical drive assembly 200 and the electronic drive assembly 300 are respectively disposed at both ends of the first transmission rod 130 along the second direction Y. Both the mechanical drive assembly 200 and the electronic drive assembly 300 are adapted to be connected to the first transmission rod 130, that is, the first transmission rod 130 extends along the second direction Y into the mechanical drive assembly 200 and the electronic drive assembly. Both the electronic drive assembly and the mechanical drive assembly can drive the first transmission rod 130 to rotate. Further, the mechanical drive assembly 200 refers to driving the first transmission rod 130 to rotate by manual operation, and the electronic drive assembly 300 refers to driving the first transmission rod 130 to rotate by motor drive. In order to prevent interference between the first mechanical drive assembly 200 and the electronic drive assembly 300, the mechanical drive assembly 200 and the electronic drive assembly 300 are connected to the first transmission rod 130 in a selective manner, that is, the mechanical drive assembly 200 and the electronic drive assembly 300 cannot drive the first transmission rod 130 to rotate simultaneously.

[0028] Please refer to the attached document. Figure 1 and appendix Figure 2 As shown, the smart lock 10 of this application also includes a mechanical password component 400, which is connected to the mechanical drive component 200. The mechanical password component 400 and the mechanical drive component 200 are in a first state and a second state. In the first state, the mechanical password component 400 performs password calibration and releases the locking limit on the mechanical drive component 200. The mechanical drive component 200 can drive the first transmission rod 130 to rotate. To prevent further rotation of the electronic drive component 300, the first transmission rod 130 idles within the electronic drive component 300 in the current state. In the second state, the mechanical password component 400 performs password misalignment and locks the mechanical drive component 200, thus restricting its rotation.

[0029] To further explain the relationship between the mechanical password component 400 and the mechanical drive component 200, the mechanical password component 400 has an unlocking password set within it. Identity is verified by rotating the numeric dial 421 within the mechanical password component 400. If the numeric dial 421 is rotated to adjust the code position and is moved to an incorrect position (i.e., the numeric dial 421 does not display the correct unlocking password), the mechanical password component 400 locks the mechanical drive component 200, preventing the mechanical drive component 200 from rotating. If the numeric dial 421 is rotated to adjust the code position and is moved to the correct position (i.e., the numeric dial 421 displays the correct unlocking password), the mechanical password component 400 releases its lock on the mechanical drive component 200, allowing the mechanical drive component 200 to rotate freely.

[0030] Please refer to the attached document. Figure 1 and appendix Figure 2As shown, the smart lock 10 of this application also includes a smart password component 500, which is electrically connected to the electronic drive component 300, and forms a third state and a fourth state between the smart password component 500 and the electronic drive component 300. In the third state, the smart password component 500 successfully authenticates the user, and the electronic drive component 300 can drive the first transmission rod 130 to rotate. To avoid further driving the mechanical drive component 200 to rotate, in the current state, the first transmission rod 130 idles within the mechanical drive component 200. In the fourth state, the smart password component 500 fails to authenticate the user, and the electronic drive component 300 cannot drive the first transmission rod 130 to rotate.

[0031] In one embodiment, the electronic drive assembly 300 is composed of a drive motor.

[0032] In one embodiment, the smart password component 500 can be a fingerprint unlocking structure, an IC card unlocking structure, or a digital password structure to achieve unlocking in different ways. Specifically, after recognizing the identity, the smart password component 500 sends a corresponding signal to the electronic drive component 300, which then drives the electronic drive component 300 to rotate.

[0033] Please refer to the attached document. Figure 1 and appendix Figure 2 As shown, the smart lock 10 of this application also includes a front lock 600, which refers to the part of the smart lock 10 installed outside the door. A second receiving cavity 610 is provided inside the front lock 600, extending along a second direction Y within the front lock 600. A fourth opening 620 is provided outwardly in the second receiving cavity 610, and the fourth opening 620 communicates with the second receiving cavity 610. The mechanical drive assembly 200 and the mechanical password assembly 400 are integrated and located within the second receiving cavity 610, and both are connected to the front lock 600. In the mechanical combination lock component 400, the first housing component 410 is provided with a first opening 412, a second opening 413, and a third opening 414. One side of these openings is positioned near the fourth opening 620, meaning the side where the mechanical combination lock component 400 and the mechanical drive component 200 are specifically operated is positioned near the fourth opening 620, facilitating operation of the mechanical combination lock component 400 and the mechanical drive component 200. The smart lock 10 also includes a cover plate 630, which is positioned on one side of the fourth opening 620. The cover plate 630 is slidably connected to the front lock 600 along a first direction X to close or open the fourth opening 620.

[0034] Please refer to the attached document. Figure 1 and appendix Figure 2As shown, the smart lock 10 of this application also includes a rear lock 700, which refers to the part of the smart lock 10 installed in the door body. The rear lock 700 includes a second housing member 710. The second housing member 710 is composed of a third housing 711 and a fourth housing 712 arranged sequentially along the second direction Y. The fourth housing 712 is connected to the third housing 711 and forms a third receiving cavity 720 in the second housing member 710. The electronic drive assembly 300 is located in the third receiving cavity 720.

[0035] Appendix Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of a structure between the mechanical drive component 200 and the mechanical password component 400 of this application, attached. Figure 4 This is another structural diagram of the mechanical drive component 200 and the mechanical password component 400 of this application. Please refer to the attached diagram. Figure 3 and appendix Figure 4 As shown, the mechanical encryption assembly 400 of this application includes a first housing member 410, within which a first receiving cavity 411 is provided. The first receiving cavity is used to accommodate other components in the mechanical encryption assembly 400 besides the first housing member 410, and also to accommodate the mechanical drive assembly 200. A first opening 412 is provided on the first housing member 410, and the first opening 412 communicates with the first receiving cavity 411.

[0036] Please refer to the attached document. Figure 3 and appendix Figure 4As shown, the mechanical password assembly 400 of this application further includes a dial 420, which is at least partially located within the first receiving cavity 411 and is rotatably connected to the first housing 410. The dial 420 is provided with a digit disk 421, on which unlocking numbers are circumferentially spaced on the outward-facing side. The unlocking numbers can be composed of 1 to 9. The digit disk 421 extends outside the first receiving cavity 411 through a first opening 412. The dial 420 also includes a first rotating member 422, which has an unlocking notch 422-1 on its circumference. The unlocking notch 422-1 corresponds to any unlocking number on the digit disk 421, and the unlocking number corresponding to the unlocking notch 422-1 is the correct number for unlocking. The first rotating member 422 is located within the first receiving cavity 411, is kinetically connected to the digit disk 421, and is rotatably connected to the first housing 410. The dial component 420 also includes a first limiting member 424, which is located between the first rotating component 422 and the digital disk 421 along the second direction Y. The first limiting member 424 is used to limit the distance between the first rotating component 422 and the digital disk 421, but this limit can be released or formed. When the first rotating component 422 is relatively limited to the digital disk 421 by the first limiting member 424, the first rotating component 422 and the digital disk 421 can rotate synchronously, thereby realizing the rotation of the unlocking notch 422-1, and further realizing the unlocking of the mechanical password component 400 to the mechanical drive component 200. When the relative limit between the first rotating component 422 and the digital disk 421 is released, the digital disk 421 can rotate independently relative to the first rotating component 422 to adjust the unlocking notch 422-1 and the unlocking number corresponding to the digital disk 421.

[0037] Furthermore, the mechanical combination component 400 also includes a first drive plate 423 and a first drive member. The first drive plate 423 is disposed within the first receiving cavity 411 along the first direction X. The first drive plate 423 has a plate-like structure. A limiting protrusion 423-1 is provided on the side of the first drive plate 423 facing the dial component 420. The limiting protrusion 423-1 protrudes outward relative to the first drive plate 423 in the first direction X. The limiting protrusion 423-1 can enter and exit the unlocking notch 422-1 to realize the locking or unlocking of the mechanical combination component 400. The number of limiting protrusions 423-1 corresponds to the number of unlocking notches 422-1. The first drive member is connected to the first drive plate 423 and has a driving force that continuously drives the limiting protrusion 423-1 to move along the first direction X and toward the unlocking notch 422-1 in the dial component 420. When the first limiting member 424 is used to lock the relative position between the digital disk 421 and the first rotating member 422, under the rotation of the dial member 420, when the unlocking notch 422-1 corresponds to the limiting protrusion 423-1, the limiting protrusion 423-1 enters the unlocking notch 422-1, and the first driving plate 423 moves in the first direction X.

[0038] In one embodiment, the smart lock 10 of this application has one or more dial elements 420.

[0039] In one embodiment, the first limiting member 424 of this application includes a limiting plate and a limiting structure. The limiting structure has two sets: a first limiting structure and a second limiting structure. The first limiting structure is disposed between the limiting plate and the digital disk 421, and the second limiting structure can also be disposed on the limiting plate and the first rotating member 422.

[0047] Appendix Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the mechanical drive component 200 and the mechanical password component 400 in a second state, as shown in the attached diagram. Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of the mechanical drive component 200 and the mechanical password component 400 in their first state, as per this application. Figure 6 In the middle, the limiting protrusion 423-1 did not enter the unlocking notch 422-1. (Attached) Figure 7 In the middle, the limiting protrusion 423-1 has entered the unlocking gap 422-1.

[0048] For further details, please refer to the appendix. Figure 7As shown, when the mechanical password assembly 400 and the mechanical drive assembly 200 are in the first state, the second limiting member 425 moves along the second direction Y within the first limiting groove 423-2, forming the fifth and sixth states. In the fifth state, the first limiting rod 425-1 is located within the first limiting groove 423-2, so the first drive plate 423 can still move along the first direction X. Therefore, under the drive of the dial member 420, the first drive plate 423 can move the limiting protrusion 423-1 out of the limiting channel, and the first drive plate 423 simultaneously moves along the first direction X toward the second limiting member 425 to form a password misalignment. In the sixth state, the second limiting rod 425-2 is located within the first limiting groove 423-2. The first driving plate 423 abuts against the first rotating member 422 and the second limiting rod 425-2 on both sides in the first direction X, respectively, to ensure that the limiting protrusion 423-1 is always within the unlocking notch 422-1, and the first driving plate 423 remains stationary in the first direction X. When the digital disk 421 is driven to rotate, the first driving plate 423 unlocks the limiting position between the digital disk 421 and the first rotating member 422, that is, the first rotating member 422 cannot rotate circumferentially. With the rotation of the digital disk 421, the limiting protrusion 423-1 disengages from the limiting groove, and the digital disk 421 rotates independently relative to the first rotating member 422 to adjust the unlocking notch 422-1 and the unlocking number corresponding to the digital disk 421.
