Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of locks, and in particular relates to a vehicle lock and a vehicle. Background Art

[0002] Chinese patent document CN116696163A discloses a vehicle lock and a control method, which discloses that a lock tongue can be inserted from a direction parallel to an opening above the vehicle lock to achieve locking or unlocking, and the vehicle lock can be unlocked and locked normally even when the lock tongue is subjected to a large force on the lock groove.

[0003] However, the lock tongue can only be inserted or pulled out from a direction parallel to the opening above the vehicle lock, which limits the use scenarios of the vehicle lock.

[0004] Therefore, the existing technology needs to be improved and developed. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of the present application is to provide a vehicle lock and a vehicle, providing another form of unlocking and locking method, which can be adapted to more vehicles.

[0006] To solve the above technical problems, the present application provides a vehicle lock, which is formed with a first limiting surface and a second limiting surface, including a first locking element and a second locking element, the first locking element being provided with a first extension portion and a second extension portion extending out of the vehicle lock, a locking groove being formed between the first extension portion and the second extension portion, a locking portion being provided on the first locking element, the first locking element and the second locking element being elastically hinged at two hinge points respectively, and the locking tongue being able to push the second extension portion to rotate the first locking element, so that when the second locking element and the first locking element are in contact with each other at another point outside the straight line where the two hinge points are located, the first limiting surface and the second limiting surface form a relative position relationship, and the locking portion of the first locking element is restricted between the first limiting surface and the second limiting surface.

[0007] Furthermore, the locking tongue pushes the second extension portion in a horizontal state to rotate the first locking element, thereby limiting the locking portion of the first locking element between the first limiting surface and the second limiting surface.

[0008] Furthermore, when the vehicle lock is in a locked state, the first extension portion is in a horizontal state to limit the movement of the lock tongue.

[0009] Furthermore, the vehicle lock is provided with an opening, the first extension portion and the second extension portion of the first lock element extend from the opening, and the lock tongue can move along a direction perpendicular to the opening to contact the two extension portions of the first lock element.

[0010] Furthermore, the locking portion includes a first restricted surface and a second restricted surface, and the first restricted surface and the second restricted surface form a relative positional relationship.

[0011] Furthermore, it also includes a lock shell, the first limiting surface is arranged on the lock shell, and the second limiting surface is arranged on the second locking element.

[0012] Furthermore, a distance from the first limiting surface to the second limiting surface is greater than a width of the locking portion.

[0013] Furthermore, the second locking element further includes an unlocking surface, the locking portion is provided with a third restricted surface, and the third restricted surface is matched with the unlocking surface.

[0014] Furthermore, the vehicle lock is formed with a third limiting surface for limiting the rotation angle of the second locking element.

[0015] Further, the first extension portion and the second extension portion both protrude outwardly along the radial direction of the first locking element.

[0016] Furthermore, it also includes a driving mechanism, which is connected to the second locking member, and is used to rotate the second locking member so that the locking portion is restricted to the first limiting surface and the second limiting surface or to release the restriction.

[0017] Furthermore, the driving mechanism comprises a driving device and a control block, the control block is provided with a control surface, the second locking element is provided with a controlled surface, and the control surface of the control block abuts against the controlled surface of the second locking element.

[0018] Furthermore, a switch element is provided, and the first lock member is provided with a positioning block. When the first lock member rotates to contact the first limit surface, the positioning block presses the switch element, and the switch element outputs a locking signal.

[0019] The present application also provides a vehicle, comprising the above-mentioned vehicle lock.

[0020] From the above, it can be seen that the vehicle lock provides another form of unlocking and locking method, that is, by arranging a first extension portion and a second extension portion extending outside the vehicle lock on the first lock element, the lock tongue can move from a direction perpendicular to the opening of the vehicle lock or other directions to contact the second extension portion of the first lock element, thereby achieving locking. The lock tongue is no longer limited to being inserted from a direction parallel to the opening of the vehicle lock, and can be adapted to more vehicles.

[0039] Figure 1 It is a three-dimensional view of the vehicle lock 3 and the lock tongue 2. Figure 2 It is a front view of the vehicle lock 3 and the lock tongue 2. Figure 3 It is a three-dimensional diagram of the vehicle lock 3 (the end cover 31 is hidden). Figure 4 The vehicle lock 3 includes a lock shell 32 and an end cover 31. The lock shell 32 is a rectangular parallelepiped structure. The upper and lower sides of the lock shell 32 are provided with flanges. The flanges are drilled with through holes. The lock shell 32 can be installed on a fixed object by screws. The fixed object can be the inner wall of the seat barrel of an electric bicycle or the body of an electric scooter. An opening 324 is provided on the upper right side of the lock shell 32. The setting direction of the opening 324 is from left to right along the horizontal direction, that is, Figure 2 In the direction of the middle line A, the lock tongue 2 is fastened to the cover plate 1 and can reciprocate in a straight line in the vertical direction, that is, Figure 2 In the direction of the middle B line, there is a small gap between the left side of the lock tongue 2 and the right side of the vehicle lock 3. After the cover plate 1 drives the lock tongue 2 to move vertically downward to a certain distance, the lock tongue 2 is stuck in the lock groove 331 of the vehicle lock 3 to limit the movement of the lock tongue 2. The cover plate 1 cannot be opened upward, so that the contents below the cover plate 1 cannot be taken out. The contents can be batteries for electric vehicles or items of riders, thereby achieving the purpose of anti-theft.

[0040] like Figure 4As shown, a drive mechanism installation slot 325 is provided on the left side of the lock shell 32, where the drive mechanism 35 is installed. A wire slot 326 is provided on the upper left of the drive mechanism installation slot 325, and external cables enter the wire slot 326 and are connected to the drive mechanism 35 to supply power to the drive mechanism 35 and transmit data signals. A first rotating shaft seat 327 and a second rotating shaft seat 328 are provided on the right side of the drive mechanism installation slot 325, which are raised along the thickness direction of the lock shell 32. The first rotating shaft seat 327 and the second rotating shaft seat 328 are annular structures. The first rotating shaft seat 327 is rotatably hinged with the first lock member 33, and the second rotating shaft seat 328 is rotatably hinged with the second lock member 34. The center of the first rotating shaft seat 327 is the first hinge point, and the center of the second rotating shaft seat 328 is the second hinge point. The end cover 31 is also provided with a corresponding rotating shaft seat, and the end cover 31 is buckled on the lock shell 32 so that the first lock member 33 and the second lock member 34 can only rotate around their own axes. It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, the rotary articulation is formed by forming a rotary pair through the first rotating shaft 333 of the first locking member 33 and the inner hole of the first rotating shaft seat 327. The first rotating shaft seat 327 can also be interchangeable with the first rotating shaft 333 of the first locking member 33, that is, the first rotating shaft 333 can be arranged on the first rotating shaft seat 327, and an inner hole is arranged on the first locking member 33. Considering the factor of facilitating processing, in the present embodiment, the solution of processing the first rotating shaft 333 on the first locking member 33 is adopted.

[0041] Figure 5 The schematic diagram of the structure of the first lock member 33 is shown. The first rotating shaft 333 is arranged at the center of the first lock member 33. The first lock member 33 is provided with a first extension portion 334 and a second extension portion 335. The first extension portion 334 and the second extension portion 335 are in the shape of long strips. The first extension portion 334 and the second extension portion 335 both protrude outward along the radial direction of the first lock member 33. The radius of the first extension portion 334 and the second extension portion 335 are larger than the radius of other parts of the first lock member 33, so that the first extension portion 334 and the second extension portion 335 can extend from the opening 324 to the outside of the vehicle lock 3. The first extension portion 334 and the second extension portion 335 form a lock groove 331 at a certain angle. The lock groove 331 is fan-shaped. The width of the lock groove 331 is slightly larger than the diameter of the lock tongue 2, so that the lock tongue 2 can be completely inserted into the lock groove 331.

[0042] The first lock member 33 is further provided with a locking portion 332, which is used to limit the rotation of the first lock member 33 in the locked state, thereby limiting the position of the locking groove 331, so that the locking tongue 2 cannot be separated from the locking groove 331 after being subjected to force.

[0043] In this embodiment, the locking portion 332 is roughly fan-shaped, and the locking portion 332 protrudes outwardly in the radial direction of the first locking member 33. The locking portion 332 specifically includes a first restricted surface 3321, a second restricted surface 3322, and a third restricted surface 3323. The first restricted surface 3321 and the second restricted surface 3322 are respectively connected to the outer peripheral surface of the first locking member 33, and the first restricted surface 3321 and the second restricted surface 3322 are arranged opposite to each other, and the third restricted surface 3323 is respectively adjacent to the first restricted surface 3321 and the second restricted surface 3322. Specifically, the first restricted surface 3321 is a plane, the second restricted surface 3322 and the third restricted surface 3323 are arc surfaces, and the third restricted surface 3323 is coaxial with the outer peripheral surface of the first locking member 33.

[0044] Of course, the specific shape structure of the first restricted surface 3321, the second restricted surface 3322 and the third restricted surface 3323 is not limited to the above structure. It only needs to satisfy that the first restricted surface 3321 and the second restricted surface 3322 are opposite to each other, and the first restricted surface 3321 does not need to be strictly opposite to the second restricted surface 3322. According to the inventor's theoretical analysis and practice, the angle between the first restricted surface 3321 and the second restricted surface 3322 only needs to be between forty-five degrees to limit the locking portion 332 well.

[0045] In addition, the first rotating shaft 333 is also sleeved with a first torsion spring (not shown), one end of the first torsion spring is fixed to any position of the lock shell 32, and the other end of the first torsion spring is against the first restricted surface 3321 of the locking portion 332. The first torsion spring stores elastic potential energy, which can enable the first lock element 33 to always have a tendency to rotate counterclockwise, even if the first lock element 33 is rotated away from the first limiting surface 321, so that in the unlocked state, the second extension portion 335 of the first lock element 33 can extend out of the opening 324 and the second extension portion 335 can be horizontal. When the lock tongue 2 contacts the second extension portion 335 in a horizontal state, the force exerted on the first lock element 33 is more direct, thereby better locking.

[0046] Figure 6 The schematic diagram of the structure of the second lock 34 is shown. The second lock 34 includes a first end 341, a second end 342 and a second rotating shaft 343. The first end 341 and the second end 342 are respectively arranged on both sides of the second rotating shaft 343, and are arranged approximately at a 90-degree angle. The second rotating shaft 343 is rotatably hinged on the second rotating shaft seat 328. The first end 341 is connected to the driving mechanism 35, and the driving mechanism 35 is used to apply a certain force to the first end 341, so that the first end 341 generates a rotational motion, thereby restricting or releasing the restriction of the first lock 33. The second lock 34 is provided with a second limiting surface 3421 on the second end 342.

[0047] Since the first lock member 33 has one degree of rotational freedom, only one limiting surface cannot completely limit the movement of the first lock member 33, so another limiting surface is required to completely limit the first lock member 33. In this embodiment, another limiting surface is provided on the lock housing 32. Figure 4 and Fig.10 As shown, a first limiting surface 321 is provided in the middle of the lock housing 32. The first limiting surface 321 is perpendicular to the bottom surface of the lock housing 32 and is opposite to the second limiting surface 3421. Fig.10 At the position, the locking portion 332 of the first locking member 33 is restricted in the limiting groove formed between the first limiting surface 321 and the second limiting surface 3421 and cannot move. Assuming that the cover plate 1 is forcibly opened, the locking tongue 2 will generate upward pressure on the upper side wall of the locking groove 331 of the first locking member 33, causing the locking portion 332 to rotate counterclockwise, and the second limiting surface 3421 contacts the second limiting surface 3322 of the locking portion 332, and the second limiting surface 3421 generates a support force in the normal direction of the contact point on the second limiting surface 3322 of the locking portion 332, which offsets the upward pressure generated by the locking tongue 2 on the upper side wall of the locking groove 331 of the first locking member 33. As long as the second locking member 34 is in the first position and the first locking member 33 is not damaged, no matter how much pressure the locking tongue 2 exerts on the first locking member 33, the second locking member 34 will not rotate.

[0048] The lock housing 32 is also provided with a third limiting surface 322, which is located below the first limiting surface 321 and is used to limit the rotation angle of the second lock member 34. The upper edge of the first end 341 of the second lock member 34 is restricted by the third limiting surface 322 during the clockwise rotation and stops rotating. The distance from the first limiting surface 321 to the second limiting surface 3421 is slightly larger than the distance from the first limiting surface 3321 to the second limiting surface 3322 of the locking portion 332 of the first lock member 33 (i.e., the width of the locking portion 332), so that the locking portion 332 of the first lock member 33 can be reliably locked.

[0049] The second rotating shaft 343 is also sleeved with a second torsion spring (not shown), one end of the second torsion spring is fixed to any point of the lock housing 32, and the other end of the second torsion spring is against the lower edge of the first end 341 of the second locking element 34. The second torsion spring stores elastic potential energy, which can enable the second locking element 34 to always have a tendency to rotate clockwise, even if the second locking element 34 approaches the third limiting surface 322.

[0050] The limiting groove here refers to a non-physical limiting groove formed by a movable structure, and can also be a physical groove fixedly formed on a certain part.

[0051] In order to rotate the second locking member 34, in the present embodiment, a driving mechanism 35 is used to rotate the second locking member 34. The driving mechanism 35 specifically includes a driving device 351, a circuit board (not shown) and a control block 353. The output shaft of the driving device 351 is fixedly connected to the control block 353. The control block 353 has a control surface 3531 inclined to its rotation axis. The first end 341 of the second locking member 34 is a sphere, and its outer surface is a controlled surface 3411. After the driving mechanism 35 is assembled, it abuts against the control surface 3531 of the control block 353 and the controlled surface 3411 of the second locking member 34.

[0052] It should be noted that the second torsion spring can ensure that the control surface 3531 of the control block 353 and the controlled surface 3411 of the second locking member 34 maintain good contact.

[0053] In this embodiment, the driving device 351 is a motor. The motor generally has a high rotation speed and a small torque, and it is difficult to drive the second locking member 34 to move. Therefore, a reducer can be set on the output shaft of the driving device 351 to increase the output torque.

[0054] The circuit board and the driving device 351 are connected by a cable. The circuit board is provided with a controller. After receiving the unlocking or locking instruction, the controller causes the driving device 351 to rotate forward or reverse. In order to obtain the position state of the driving device 351, a positioning block 336 is provided on the first lock member 33. Figure 7 As shown, the positioning block 336 is arranged at the edge of the first lock member 33, and the protrusion is arranged and the height of the protrusion is higher than the first lock member 33. Correspondingly, the switch element 354 is arranged outside the driving device 351. In this embodiment, the switch element 354 is a spring-type travel switch. When the vehicle lock 3 is in the unlocked state, the positioning block 336 of the first lock member 33 does not squeeze the spring of the switch element 354 and does not output a signal. When the vehicle lock 3 is in the locked state, when the first lock member 33 rotates to contact the first limit surface 321, the positioning block 336 squeezes the spring of the switch element 354 and outputs a lock signal. This design can simplify the assembly process and reduce the manufacturing cost of the vehicle lock 3.

[0055] like Fig.10 As shown, in the locked state, the first locking member 33 and the second locking member 34 abut against each other at another point outside the straight line where the two hinge points are located, and the locking portion 332 of the first locking member 33 is restricted between the first limiting surface 321 and the second limiting surface 3421 that form a relative position relationship, so that the lock tongue 2 is stuck in the lock groove 331, and the first extension portion 334 is in a horizontal state to limit the movement state of the lock tongue 2.

[0056] During the unlocking process, the driving mechanism 35 controls the second lock element 34 to rotate so that the first limit surface 321 and the second limit surface 3421 release their relative position relationship; in the unlocked state, the first limit surface 321 and the second limit surface 3421 release the restriction on the locking portion 332 of the first lock element 33, and the lock tongue 2 can be disengaged from the lock groove 331; during the locking process, the driving mechanism 35 controls the second lock element 34 to rotate in the opposite direction so that the first limit surface 321 and the second limit surface 3421 re-form their relative position relationship.

[0057] The unlocking process of the vehicle lock 3 is as follows: when the controller receives the unlocking command, the driving device 351 rotates to drive the control block 353 to rotate, the control surface 3531 pushes the controlled surface 3411 to make the first end 341 of the second lock 34 swing to the rightmost end, the second limit surface 3421 of the second lock 34 rotates to another angle not opposite to the first limit surface 321, the second lock 34 and the lock shell 32 release the restriction on the locking portion 332 of the first lock 33, so that the lock tongue 2 stuck in the lock groove 331 can be taken out, and the cover 1 can be opened. After unlocking, the first lock 33 rotates counterclockwise under the action of the first torsion spring, so that the second extension portion 335 of the first lock 33 is in a horizontal state.

[0058] The locking process of the vehicle lock 3 is as follows: the rider first closes the cover 1, and the lock tongue 2 can move in a direction perpendicular to the opening 324, that is, vertically downward to contact the second extension portion 335 in a horizontal state, and push the second extension portion 335 in a horizontal state to rotate the first lock member 33, and after the first lock member 33 rotates until its first restricted surface 3321 contacts the first limiting surface 321, when the controller receives the locking command, the drive device 351 rotates in the opposite direction, and the first end 341 of the second lock member 34 swings to the leftmost end under the action of the second torsion spring, and the second limiting surface 3421 of the second lock member 34 rotates to be opposite to the first limiting surface 321, and the second lock member 34 and the lock shell 32 restrict the locking portion 332 of the first lock member 33, and the vehicle lock 3 firmly closes the cover 1.

[0059] It should be noted that the lock tongue 2 can also move from other directions inclined to the vertical direction to contact the horizontal second extension 335. The lock tongue moves vertically downward, and the contact surface with the second extension 335 is larger, and the success rate of locking is high.

[0060] It can be seen from the above that no matter the vehicle lock 3 is being unlocked or locked, even if the cover plate 1 is deformed, the lock tongue 2 exerts a large force on the lock groove 331 of the first lock element 33, and the force is converted into an extrusion force of the locking portion 332 of the first lock element 33 on the second limiting surface 3421 of the second lock element 34. Since the extrusion force is along the normal direction of the contact point of the second limiting surface 3421, and the center (centroid) of the torque of the driving mechanism 35 to rotate the second lock element 34 is on the straight line where the extrusion force is located, the extrusion force will not affect the unlocking or locking, and will not affect the use of the rider, thereby ensuring the safety and firmness of the battery compartment.

[0061] It can be seen that the vehicle lock 3 provides another form of unlocking and locking method, that is, by providing a first extension portion 334 and a second extension portion 335 extending outside the vehicle lock 3 on the first lock element 33, the lock tongue 2 can move from a direction perpendicular to the opening 324 of the vehicle lock 3 or other directions to contact the second extension portion 335 of the first lock element 33, thereby achieving locking. The lock tongue 2 is no longer limited to being inserted from a direction parallel to the opening 324 of the vehicle lock 3, and can be adapted to more vehicles.

[0062] The vehicle lock 3 can also be used on any vehicle equipped with a U-shaped lock tongue 2, such as a seat barrel of an electric bicycle, a trunk of a motorcycle, etc.

[0063] In some special cases, the rider accidentally closes the lock when opening the cover 1. At this time, the second lock member 34 is still in the first position. In order to improve the usability of the lock, an unlocking surface 3422 is provided at the first end 341 of the second lock member 34. The unlocking surface 3422 is adapted to the third restricted surface 3323 of the first lock member 33. The locking process is as follows: Figure 7-Figure 9 As shown, the unlocking surface 3422 enables the first locking element 33 to push open the second locking element 34, so that even if the lock is accidentally closed, the lock tongue 2 can be inserted into the first locking element 33 to lock it, without the need to unlock and lock it again, thereby improving the usability of the lock and the convenience of the rider.

[0064] In order to be able to unlock when the vehicle lock 3 is out of power or the driving device 351 is damaged, in this embodiment, a forced unlocking groove 329 is provided on the lock housing 32, and is used in conjunction with a forced unlocking device, which is an object such as a hard rod that can pass through the forced unlocking groove 329. The forced unlocking groove 329 is provided on one side of the control block 353. When the vehicle lock 3 is out of power or the driving device 351 is damaged, the rider extends the forced unlocking device into the forced unlocking groove 329 and applies force horizontally to push the control block 353 to rotate. The control surface 3531 of the control block 353 pushes the controlled surface 3411 to swing the first end 341 of the second lock member 34 to the rightmost end, and the locking portion 332 of the first lock member 33 is disengaged from the limiting groove, and the lock tongue 2 can be taken out, thereby achieving the purpose of forced unlocking.
