[0044] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiment of the utility model clearer, the technical solution in the embodiment of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiment of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiment is a part of the embodiment of the utility model, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiment of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0045] Combine the following Figures 3 to 9 , describing an embodiment of the utility model.
[0046] According to an embodiment of the present utility model, on the one hand, a housing assembly of a smart lock is provided, comprising:
[0047] The housing 1 is provided with a receiving cavity 101, one side of the receiving cavity 101 is provided with an opening, and the housing 1 is provided with a first clamping structure 102;
[0048] The support structure 2 is arranged at the opening. A second clamping structure 201 is arranged on the support structure 2. The second clamping structure 201 is connected with the first clamping structure 102 in cooperation. The support structure 2 is suitable for fixedly connecting electronic devices.
[0049] By setting a first clamping structure 102 on the shell 1 and setting a second clamping structure 201 on the support structure 2 that cooperates with the first clamping structure 102, it is convenient to clamp the support structure 2 to the shell 1, and there is no need to fix the shell 1 and the support structure 2 with multiple fixing screws, which makes the overall structural assembly of the shell component more convenient.
[0050] In this embodiment, the first clamping structure 102 and the second clamping structure 201 are suitable for relative sliding under the action of external force to achieve clamping. By making the first clamping structure 102 and the second clamping structure 201 suitable for relative sliding under the action of external force and then achieving clamping, during assembly, the user can act on the housing 1 or the support structure 2 to make the first clamping structure 102 and the second clamping structure 201 slide relative to each other, and the clamping can be achieved when they slide into place, making the operation simpler. As a convertible implementation, it is also possible that the first clamping structure 102 and the second clamping structure 201 are directly clamped, such as the assembly method of the buckle and the slot, and the buckle is directly clamped at the slot by external force without the buckle and the slot sliding relative to each other.
[0051] like Figure 3 As shown, the first clamping structure 102 in this embodiment is a clamping block, and the second clamping structure 201 is a clamping space. Specifically, the clamping space can be a clamping hole or a clamping groove. As a convertible implementation, it can also be that the first clamping structure 102 is a clamping space, and the second clamping structure 201 is a clamping block.
[0052] Specifically, Figure 5 As shown, the clamping space in this embodiment includes: a positioning area 2011, the positioning area 2011 is suitable for pre-positioning the clamping block; a clamping area 2012, which is connected to one side of the positioning area 2011 and is suitable for clamping with the clamping block. By setting the clamping space to include the positioning area 2011 and the clamping area 2012, during assembly, the first clamping structure 102 and the second clamping structure 201 can be pre-positioned by the positioning area 2011, such as Figure 6 As shown, the user then pushes the support structure 2 by external force, so that the clamping block slides from the positioning area 2011 to the clamping area 2012 and is clamped with the clamping area 2012, as shown in FIG. Figure 8 As shown, easy to assemble.
[0053] In order to facilitate the pre-positioning of the clamping block, the size of the positioning area 2011 can be set to be slightly larger than the size of the clamping block, such as Figure 6 Of course, in other embodiments, the size of the positioning area 2011 may also be set to match the size of the clamping block, and no excessive restrictions are made here.
[0054] like Figure 5 As shown, the position of the clamping block corresponding to the clamping area 2012 in this embodiment is provided with an inclined portion, and the shape of the clamping area 2012 matches that of the inclined portion. By providing the inclined portion at the position of the clamping block corresponding to the clamping area 2012, the clamping block can slide more smoothly toward the clamping area 2012, and by matching the shape of the clamping area 2012 with that of the inclined portion, the gap between the clamping area 2012 and the clamping block after being clamped is smaller, the clamping is tighter, and the assembly firmness is improved. As a convertible implementation, it is also possible that the clamping block is not provided with an inclined portion, but the clamping block is set as a square block, and the clamping area 2012 is set as a square hole.
[0055] In this embodiment, a first limiting structure 3 is provided on the shell 1, and a second limiting structure 4 is provided on the support structure 2, which is suitable for when the support structure 2 slides along the first direction and the first clamping structure 102 is clamped with the second clamping structure 201, the first limiting structure 3 and the second limiting structure 4 cooperate to limit the support structure 2, restricting the support structure 2 from sliding along the second direction, and the second direction is opposite to the first direction.
[0056] By setting a first limiting structure 3 on the shell 1 and setting a second limiting structure 4 on the support structure 2 to cooperate with the first limiting structure 3, after the shell 1 is snapped with the support structure 2, the support structure 2 can be further limited to prevent it from sliding in the opposite direction, so that the first snap-fitting structure 102 and the second snap-fitting structure 201 are disengaged.
[0057] The first limiting structure 3 is a retaining rib, and the second limiting structure 4 is an elastic member. Specifically, the elastic member is an elastic arm. By setting the second limiting structure 4 as an elastic member, when the housing 1 and the supporting structure 2 slide relative to each other, the elastic member can rely on its own elastic deformation to prevent interference with other structures, thereby facilitating assembly. As a convertible embodiment, the first limiting structure 3 can also be an elastic member, and the second limiting structure 4 can be a retaining rib.
[0058] like Figure 7 As shown, the retaining rib in this embodiment includes: a retaining rib body 301, a retaining convex portion 302 is provided on one side of the retaining rib body 301, and the retaining convex portion 302 is adapted to abut against the elastic member when the first clamping structure 102 is clamped with the second clamping structure 201; and a limiting groove 3033 is formed on one side of the retaining convex portion 302, and the side wall of the support structure 2 is provided at the limiting groove 3033 when the first clamping structure 102 is clamped with the second clamping structure 201. By providing the retaining convex portion 302 on one side of the retaining rib body 301, and forming the limiting groove 3033 on one side of the retaining convex portion 302, the retaining convex portion 302 is convenient to cooperate with the elastic member for limiting, and at the same time, the limiting groove 3033 can be provided in cooperation with the side wall of the support structure 2, so that after the support structure 2 and the housing 1 are assembled, the appearance is more beautiful and complete.
[0059] Since the retaining convex part 302 is arranged on one side of the retaining rib body 301, and the retaining convex part 302 protrudes from the retaining rib body 301, the limiting groove 3033 can be formed on one side of the retaining convex part 302, without the need to separately arrange the limiting groove 3033, which also makes the overall structure simpler. As a convertible embodiment, the limiting groove 3033 can also be a separately arranged groove.
[0060] like Figure 3 As shown, the first clamping structure 102 is arranged on the inner wall of the accommodating cavity 101, and the second clamping structure 201 is arranged on the outer wall of the support structure 2. By arranging the first clamping structure 102 on the inner wall of the accommodating cavity 101 and the second clamping structure 201 on the outer wall of the support structure 2, the support structure 2 can be completely assembled to the opening of the accommodating cavity 101, and the first clamping structure 102 and the second clamping structure 201 are arranged in the accommodating cavity 101 after being clamped, which enhances the aesthetic appearance. As a convertible embodiment, it is also possible that the first clamping structure 102 is arranged on the outer wall of the accommodating cavity 101, and the second clamping structure 201 is arranged on the inner wall of the support structure 2. In this case, the size of the support structure 2 needs to be set larger than the accommodating cavity 101 of the housing 1.
[0061] In order to ensure the firmness of the assembly of the support structure 2 and the housing 1, the first clamping structure 102 and the second clamping structure 201 in this embodiment are respectively provided in plurality, and the first clamping structure 102 and the second clamping structure 201 are provided in one-to-one correspondence. Figure 3 As shown, there are six first clamping structures 102 and six second clamping structures 201. As a convertible embodiment, the specific number of the first clamping structures 102 and the second clamping structures 201 can be set according to the size of the housing 1 and the support structure 2, and no excessive restrictions are made here.
[0062] The supporting structure 2 and the shell 1 are designed with slidingly arranged snap-in blocks and snap-in spaces that cooperate with each other, so that the supporting structure 2 can be placed into the shell 1 according to the designed position first, at which time the snap-in block is arranged in the positioning area 2011, and then the shell 1 is pushed upward, so that the snap-in block of the shell 1 and the snap-in area 2012 of the supporting structure 2 are buckled with each other, so that the shell 1 and the supporting structure 2 are buckled. At the same time, when the supporting structure 2 slides relative to the shell 1, the elastic member provided on the supporting structure 2 will deform to pass over the retaining rib of the shell 1 and abut against the retaining rib, supporting the supporting structure 2 backward to prevent it from loosening backward, thereby achieving complete fixation of the shell 1 and the supporting structure 2. Figure 6 and Figure 8 shown.
[0063] When assembling the shell assembly in this embodiment, the camera module, PCBA board and other electronic components can be first installed on the support structure 2 and fixed, and then the support structure 2 is placed in the accommodating cavity 101 of the shell 1, and the support structure 2 is pushed upward into the shell 1 for snap-fitting and fixing.
[0064] The shell assembly in this embodiment can save the steps of driving multiple screws, improve the portability of the installation of the support structure 2 and the shell 1, save materials and assembly time, reduce costs, and improve the perfect appearance and integrity of the smart lock.
[0065] According to an embodiment of the present utility model, on the other hand, a smart lock is provided, including: a housing assembly of the above-mentioned smart lock.
[0066] The smart lock in this embodiment is a smart door lock. As a convertible implementation method, the smart lock can also be a smart lock in other application scenarios, and no excessive restrictions are made here.
[0067] Although the embodiments of the present invention are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, those skilled in the art may make various modifications and variations without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and such modifications and variations are all within the scope defined by the appended claims.
