[0051] The key storage assembly of the present application can be a part of a manual automatic switching module for fire protection products. The key storage assembly of the present application can also be applied to other products.

[0052] See also Figure 1 The key storage assembly 1 may include a housing 100 and a bottom housing 200. The bottom housing 200 and the housing 100 may enclose a space together. Specifically, the rear portion ( Figure 1 The lower part of the bottom shell) can be open, and the front part of the bottom shell ( Figure 1 The upper portion of the housing 100 and the bottom housing 200 may be open. Figure 1 The upper and lower directions of the key receiving assembly 1 are connected to each other. The space can be used to accommodate various components, such as circuit boards, electronic components, indicator lights, etc. The housing 100 can be provided with an opening 110. The bottom housing 200 can be provided with a groove 210. The groove 210 can be partially exposed to the outside of the key receiving assembly 1 through the opening 110.

[0053] When the outer case 100 and the bottom case 200 are combined, the bottom case 200 may be located inside the outer case 100 (the bottom case 200 is surrounded by the outer case 100 ).

[0054] In another embodiment, when the outer shell 100 and the bottom shell 200 are combined, the outer shell 100 may be located inside the bottom shell 200 (the outer shell 100 is surrounded by the bottom shell 200). In this embodiment, the bottom shell 200 may be provided with an opening 110, and the outer shell 100 may be provided with a groove 210. The groove 210 may be formed, for example, by stamping.

[0055] The opening 110 may include a first opening portion 111 and a second opening portion 112. The first opening portion 111 may be located at a first side of the second opening portion 112 (eg, Figure 4 The width of the first opening 111 may be greater than the width of the second opening 112. In this application, unless otherwise specified, "width" refers to the width along the Figure 4 The length is the length along the vertical direction. Figure 4 The size in the left-right direction.

[0056] The groove 210 may include a first recess 211 and a second recess 212. The first recess 211 may be located on a first side of the second recess 212 (eg, Figure 4 The width of the first concave portion 211 may be greater than the width of the first concave portion 212 .

[0057] In another embodiment, the first opening 111 may be located at a second side of the second opening 112 (eg, Figure 4 The first recess 211 may be located on the second side of the second recess 212 (as shown in the left side). Figure 4 left side shown).

[0058] In another embodiment, the width of the opening 110 may gradually decrease from the first side to the second side, thereby forming a tapered shape.

[0059] The length of the groove 210 may be greater than the length of the opening 110. The length of the first recess 211 may be greater than the length of the first opening 111.

[0060] Figure 2 The key 2 is shown as being just put into the groove 210. Figure 3 The state shown is that the key 2 is fixed in the groove 210 .

[0061] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 , the groove 210 can be used to accommodate the key 2. The depth of the groove 210 (perpendicular to the direction of the width and length) can be slightly greater than the depth of the key 2. The length of the second recess 212 can be equal to or slightly greater than the length of the key 2, but the present application is not limited to this. The right part of the key 2 can have a larger width for easy gripping, and the left part of the key 2 can have a smaller width for easy insertion into the lock, but the present application is not limited to this. The width of one end (the right part) of the key 2 can be greater than the width of the second recess 212 and less than the width of the first recess 211, and the width of the other end (the left part) of the key 2 can be less than the width of the second recess 212. In this way, when the key 2 is fixed into the groove 210 (such as Figure 3 As shown in FIG. 2 , the right portion of the key 2 will not enter the second recess 212 , and a portion of the right portion of the key 2 is exposed through the first opening 111 , thereby facilitating the removal of the key 2 .

[0062] One end of the second recess 212 close to the first recess 211 (i.e., the right end of the second recess 212) may form a chamfer 2121. Both upper and lower sides of the right end of the second recess 212 may form chamfers 2121. The chamfer 2121 makes it easier for the key 2 to enter the second recess 212.

[0063] See also Figures 4 to 6, the first recess 211 may have a first bottom 2111. The second recess 212 may have a second bottom 2122. The second bottom 2122 may be inclined relative to the first bottom 2111, so that the second bottom 2122 gradually approaches the direction of the opening 110 along the direction away from the first bottom 2111. In other words, Figure 6 As shown, the first bottom 2111 may be parallel to one side surface of the housing 100, the right end of the second bottom 2122 is connected to the first bottom 2111, and the second bottom 2122 gradually approaches the housing 100 from right to left. The left side of the second bottom 2122 may approach or abut the housing 100. In this way, a wedge-shaped space may be formed between the second bottom 2122 and the housing 100.

[0064] The second bottom 2122 is provided with a cantilever 220. One end of the cantilever 220 close to the first bottom 2111 ( Figure 6 The second bottom 2122 is connected to the cantilever 220 (right end in FIG. 1 ), and the end of the cantilever 220 away from the first bottom 2111 protrudes from the second bottom 2122. The second bottom 2122 may have a groove or a hole at a position corresponding to the cantilever 220 to allow the cantilever 220 to be compressed and deformed to be flush with the second bottom 2122. The cantilever 220 may be elastic. The cantilever 220 may be formed of metal or plastic, but the present application is not limited thereto. The cantilever 220 may be formed in a straight line shape.

[0065] In another embodiment, the cantilever 220 may be formed into a curved shape, for example, a shape that bulges away from the second bottom 2122 , which may further increase the elastic force of the cantilever 220 .

[0066] In another embodiment, the cantilever 220 may be replaced by an elastic member protruding from the second bottom 2122 .

[0067] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the cantilever 220 may be partially exposed from the second opening 112 , but the present application is not limited thereto.

[0068] See also Figure 1 and Figure 7 , the front side of the housing 100 ( Figure 7 The housing 100 may be provided with an indicator 120 and a lock 130. The indicator 120 may indicate the state of the manual-automatic switching module, for example, the manual state or the automatic state, but the present application is not limited thereto. The housing 100 may be provided with a plurality of indicators 120. The key 2 may cooperate with the lock 130 to change the state of the manual-automatic switching module. The opening 110 may be located at the lower side ( Figure 4 The bottom case 200 may be fixed to the inside of the housing 100 through the opened rear side (the side opposite to the front side) of the housing 100.

[0069] The following will describe the process of placing the key 2 into the key storage assembly 1. First, the key 2 is placed into the groove 210 through the opening 110. Then, the key 2 is translated to move from Figure 2 The status changes to Figure 3 At this time, the key 2 enters the second recess 212. Since the second bottom 2122 is inclined, the distance between the second bottom 2122 and the housing 100 gradually decreases during the movement of the key 2, and finally the key 2 cannot move further. At this time, the second bottom 2122 and the housing 100 will have a certain clamping force on the key 2, thereby fixing the key 2. In addition, the cantilever 220 will be deformed during the movement of the key 2. In this way, when the key 2 is in Figure 3 When the key 2 is in the position shown, the cantilever 220 applies elastic force to the key 2, thereby fixing the key 2. The cantilever 220 can improve the fixing force on the key 2, but the cantilever 220 is not necessary. Figure 3 As shown, the key 2 may be partially obscured by the housing 100 .

[0070] The following will describe the process of taking out the key 2 from the key storage assembly 1. First, overcome the clamping force of the second bottom 2122 and the housing 100 on the key 2 and the clamping force of the cantilever 220 and the housing 100 on the key 2 and remove the key 2 from the housing 100. Figure 3 The state shown is translated to Figure 2 Then, the key 2 is taken out from the groove 210 through the opening 110. Since the opening 110 can be provided on the lower surface of the housing 100, when the key 2 is taken out from the groove 210, the key 2 is removed from the housing 100. Figure 3 The state shown is translated to Figure 2 In the state shown, the key 2 can automatically leave the key receiving assembly 1 due to gravity, making the process of taking out the key 2 very convenient.

[0071] The key storage assembly 1 of the present application can conveniently store the key 2 in a space-saving manner. The key storage assembly 1 of the present application can firmly fix the key 2 so that the key 2 is not easily accidentally separated from the key storage assembly 1. When the key 2 is stored, it can be observed from the outside, so that the existence of the key 2 can be confirmed from a distance.

[0072] It should be noted that the present application does not limit the shape and size of the key 2 .

[0073] Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate other embodiments of the present application after considering the specification and practicing the application disclosed herein. The present application is intended to cover any modification, use or adaptation of the present application, which follows the general principles of the present disclosure and includes common knowledge or customary techniques in the art that are not disclosed in the present application.
