Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of smart door locks, and in particular to a smart lock battery cover and a smart lock. Background Art
[0002] A smart lock is a lock that is different from a traditional mechanical lock and is more intelligent in terms of user identification, security, and manageability. Therefore, most smart locks require batteries to power them.
[0003] In the smart lock industry and any field that requires frequent disassembly and installation of batteries, a battery box is generally used to install batteries. When the battery is low, the user can replace it with a new battery to achieve the desired battery life.
[0004] The battery cover in the prior art mostly uses a spring as a resetting elastic member so that the buckle on the battery cover is engaged with the battery compartment. The springs in the prior art are all made of metal. Therefore, when the spring is rusted, the spring elasticity will be reduced, which not only affects the locking and resetting effects of the buckle, but also complicates the installation structure and prolongs the installation time. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of this, the utility model provides a smart lock battery cover and a smart lock to solve the problem that when a spring is used as an elastic member, the spring elasticity is reduced after rusting, thereby affecting the locking and resetting effects of the buckle.
[0006] In a first aspect, the utility model provides a smart lock battery cover, which is suitable for covering the opening of a battery compartment, wherein the battery compartment is provided with a clamping portion, and the smart lock battery cover comprises:
[0007] The battery cover body is provided with a limit block.
[0008] A buckle is arranged on the battery cover body, and the buckle is provided with a pressing portion and a hook portion, the pressing portion is suitable for sliding between a first position and a second position, when in the first position, the hook portion is suitable for engaging with the hook portion of the battery compartment, and when in the second position, the hook portion is suitable for disengaging from the hook portion of the battery compartment.
[0009] An elastic material block is located between the limit block and the buckle, one end of the elastic material block is against the limit block, and the other end of the elastic material block acts on the buckle, and makes the hook portion have a tendency to move from the second position to the first position.
[0010] Beneficial effects:
[0011] The smart lock battery cover in the utility model achieves a sealing effect on the battery in the battery compartment by engaging the buckle with the clamping part of the battery compartment, and the elastic material block is used as the elastic member, which can ensure the locking and resetting effect of the buckle and extend the service life. The set limit block has a limiting effect on the elastic material block, so that when the buckle squeezes the elastic material block inward, the limit block can provide a reaction force and cooperate with the buckle to achieve compression and relaxation of the elastic material block. The pressing part is used when the user presses the buckle. When the user presses the pressing part, the elastic material block is compressed, and the hook part moves synchronously with the buckle to achieve the separation of the hook part and the clamping part, thereby completing the separation of the battery cover body and the battery compartment. When the user releases the pressing part, the elastic material block releases energy and pushes the buckle to move, and the buckle part moves synchronously with the buckle to achieve the engagement of the hook part and the clamping part, and finally completes the engagement of the battery cover body and the battery compartment. The two ends of the elastic material block act on the buckle and the limit block respectively, so that the buckle always maintains the tendency to move from the second position to the first position, that is, always maintains the tendency of the hook portion and the clamping portion to engage.
[0012] In an optional embodiment, the elastic material block is configured as a rubber block or a silicone block.
[0013] Beneficial effects:
[0014] Rubber blocks or silicone blocks have elastic properties. Using rubber blocks or silicone blocks instead of springs can always maintain the engagement trend between the hook part and the connecting part, avoid rusting caused by the use of springs, and extend the service life. At the same time, rubber blocks or silicone blocks have low climate sensitivity and can ensure stability during use.
[0015] In an optional implementation, the elastic material block is configured as a rectangular parallelepiped structure.
[0016] Beneficial effects:
[0017] The elastic material block with a rectangular structure can ensure that the two surfaces of the elastic material block that abut against the buckle and the limit block are in a parallel state, thereby ensuring that the compression and relaxation trend direction of the elastic material block is consistent with the sliding direction of the buckle, thereby ensuring the stability of the buckle during displacement.
[0018] In an optional embodiment, it further includes: a plug-in block, which is arranged at an edge position of the battery cover body, and the plug-in block is suitable for engaging with the plug-in slot of the battery compartment.
[0019] Beneficial effects:
[0020] The buckle is located on one side of the battery cover body, so that the battery cover body and the battery compartment have only one fixing point when they are buckled together, which easily causes an unstable buckle. Therefore, the plug-in block can be provided to increase the fixing points of the battery cover body and the battery compartment, thereby improving the stability of the battery cover body and the battery compartment.
[0021] In an optional implementation, a plurality of the plug-in blocks are provided, and the plurality of the plug-in blocks are arranged at intervals.
[0022] Beneficial effects:
[0023] Providing a plurality of plug-in blocks can increase the number of clamping and fixing points between the battery cover body and the battery compartment to the greatest extent, thereby improving the clamping stability between the battery cover body and the battery compartment.
[0024] In an optional embodiment, a peripheral surface of the battery cover body is provided with a baffle, and the baffle is suitable for fitting with the edge of the battery compartment.
[0025] Beneficial effects:
[0026] The provided enclosure can cover the battery compartment, while enhancing the fit between the battery cover body and the battery compartment, and improving the sealing of the battery cover body to the battery compartment.
[0027] In an optional embodiment, a limiting hole is provided on the enclosure, and the pressing portion can axially slide and extend out of the limiting hole.
[0028] Beneficial effects:
[0029] The limiting hole has a limiting effect on the pressing part. The sliding cooperation between the pressing part and the limiting hole can make the pressing part slide along the axial direction of the limiting hole. The buckle compresses the elastic material block in a direction, and the buckle simultaneously drives the hook part to slide along a fixed direction to engage with the connecting part.
[0030] In an optional embodiment, the buckle, the pressing portion and the hook portion are an integrally formed structure.
[0031] Beneficial effects:
[0032] The buckle, pressing part and hook part of the one-piece structure can improve the connection strength and ensure the stability of the pressing process.
[0033] In an optional implementation, the elastic material block is bonded to the limiting block and the buckle.
[0034] Beneficial effects:
[0035] Since the prior art uses a spring to reset the buckle, a corresponding fixed structure bracket is also required to limit the spring, which prolongs the installation time. The elastic material block is bonded to the limit block and the buckle, which can greatly reduce the installation structure and reduce the production and installation time.
[0036] In a second aspect, the utility model also provides a smart lock, comprising:
[0037] Battery compartment;
[0038] A battery cover is covered on the opening of the battery compartment, and the battery cover is configured as any one of the smart lock battery covers described above.
[0039] Beneficial effects:
[0040] In this way, the smart lock provided by the utility model uses an elastic material block as an elastic member, which ensures the locking and resetting effect of the buckle and prolongs the service life. The derivation process of this beneficial effect is generally similar to the derivation process of the beneficial effect brought by the above-mentioned smart lock battery cover, and will not be repeated here.

[0049] 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.
[0050] Combine the following Figures 1 to 5 , describing an embodiment of the utility model.
[0051] According to an embodiment of the utility model, on the one hand, a smart lock battery cover is provided, which is suitable for covering the opening of the battery compartment, and the battery compartment is provided with a snap-on portion. The smart lock battery cover includes: a battery cover body 1, a buckle 3 and an elastic material block 4.
[0052] The battery cover body 1 is provided with a limit block 2. In some embodiments, the limit block 2 can be provided as a rectangular protruding structure protruding from the battery cover body 1, and the rectangular protruding structure can be designed as an integral part with the battery cover body 1, specifically, it can be integrally formed by injection molding. In other embodiments, the limit block 2 can also be provided as other shapes, such as cylindrical, polygonal, etc.
[0053] The buckle 3 is arranged on the battery cover body 1, and the buckle 3 is provided with a pressing portion 301 and a hook portion 302. The pressing portion 301 is suitable for sliding between a first position and a second position. In the state of the first position, the hook portion 302 is suitable for engaging with the hook portion of the battery compartment. In the state of the second position, the hook portion 302 is suitable for disengaging from the hook portion of the battery compartment. In some embodiments, the pressing portion 301 can be set as a rectangular parallelepiped structure, and the hook portion 302 can be set as a three-dimensional structure with a curved hook on the top. The two can be constructed as an integrated structure, which can be specifically manufactured by an injection molding integrated molding process.
[0054] The elastic material block 4 is located between the limit block 2 and the buckle 3. One end of the elastic material block 4 abuts against the limit block 2. The other end of the elastic material block 4 acts on the buckle 3 and makes the hook portion 302 have a tendency to move from the second position to the first position.
[0055] The smart lock battery cover in this embodiment can be engaged with the snap-on portion of the battery compartment through the snap-on 3 to achieve a sealing effect on the battery in the battery compartment, and the elastic material block 4 is used as an elastic member to ensure the locking and resetting effect of the snap-on 3 and extend the service life. The set limit block 2 can limit the elastic material block 4, so that when the snap-on 3 squeezes the elastic material block 4 inward, the limit block 2 can provide a reaction force to cooperate with the snap-on 3 to achieve compression and relaxation of the elastic material block 4. The pressing part 301 is used when the user presses the snap-on 3. When the user presses the pressing part 301, the elastic material block 4 is compressed, and the hook part 302 can be synchronously displaced with the snap-on 3 to achieve the separation of the hook part 302 and the snap-on portion, thereby completing the separation of the battery cover body 1 from the battery compartment. When the user releases the pressing portion 301, the elastic material block 4 releases energy and pushes the buckle 3 to move, and the buckle 3 can move synchronously with the buckle 3 to achieve the engagement of the hook portion 302 with the snap-on portion, and finally complete the engagement of the battery cover body 1 with the battery compartment. The two ends of the elastic material block 4 act on the buckle 3 and the limit block 2 respectively, so that the buckle 3 can always maintain the trend of moving from the second position to the first position, that is, always maintain the engagement trend of the hook portion 302 with the snap-on portion.
[0056] In some embodiments, the elastic material block 4 is configured as a rubber block or a silicone block.
[0057] In this embodiment, the rubber block or silicone block has elastic properties. Using the rubber block or silicone block instead of the spring can always maintain the engagement trend between the hook portion 302 and the engaging portion, avoiding rusting caused by the use of the spring and extending the service life. At the same time, the rubber block or silicone block has low climate sensitivity and can ensure stability during use.
[0058] In some embodiments, the elastic material block 4 can be configured as a rectangular parallelepiped structure.
[0059] In this embodiment, the elastic material block 4 with a rectangular structure can ensure that the two surfaces of the elastic material block 4 that are against the buckle 3 and the limit block 2 are in a parallel state, thereby ensuring that the compression and relaxation trend direction of the elastic material block 4 is consistent with the sliding direction of the buckle 3, thereby ensuring the stability of the buckle 3 during displacement.
[0060] Optionally, the elastic material block 4 can also be set as a sphere or a three-dimensional structure with a polygonal cross-section. It only needs to ensure that the two surfaces of the elastic material block 4 that abut against the buckle 3 and the limit block 2 are parallel and in a parallel state.
[0061] In some embodiments, it also includes: a plug-in block 5, which is arranged at the edge of the battery cover body 1, and the plug-in block 5 is suitable for engaging with the plug-in slot of the battery compartment.

Therefore, the plug-in block 5 can be provided to increase the number of fixing points for the battery cover body 1 and the battery compartment, thereby improving the stability of the battery cover body 1 and the battery compartment.
[0063] Optionally, the plug block 5 can be arranged on the edge of the battery cover body 1 on the opposite side of the buckle 3. Such an arrangement allows the user to directly perform the disassembly action after pressing the pressing portion 301 when installing or disassembling the battery cover body 1. The entire action is a linear action, which improves the convenience of disassembling the battery cover.
[0064] In some embodiments, a plurality of plug-in blocks 5 are provided, and the plurality of plug-in blocks 5 are arranged at intervals.
[0065] In this embodiment, a plurality of plug-in blocks 5 are provided, which can increase the number of engagement points between the battery cover body 1 and the battery compartment to the greatest extent, thereby improving the engagement stability between the battery cover body 1 and the battery compartment.
[0066] Optionally, a plurality of plug-in blocks 5 are located at the same side edge of the battery cover body 1 , so as to facilitate uniformly inserting the plug-in blocks 5 into the plug-in slots when installing the battery cover body 1 .

[0071] In some embodiments, a limiting hole is provided on the enclosure 6, and the pressing portion 301 can axially slide and extend out of the limiting hole.
[0072] In this embodiment, the limiting hole has a limiting effect on the pressing part 301. The sliding cooperation between the pressing part 301 and the limiting hole can make the pressing part 301 slide along the axial direction of the limiting hole. The buckle 3 compresses the elastic material block 4 in a direction, and the buckle 3 simultaneously drives the hook part 302 to slide along a fixed direction and engage with the connecting part.
[0073] Optionally, two limit strips are further provided on the battery cover body 1, which are respectively located on both sides of the limit block 2 and slidably cooperate with both sides of the buckle 3. They can cooperate with the limit holes to enhance the limit effect on the buckle 3 and ensure the stability of the buckle 3 during the sliding process.
[0074] Optionally, the buckle 3 is in sliding contact with the opposite surface of the battery cover body 1 , and the limiting hole can be used to enhance the limiting effect of the buckle 3 , thereby ensuring the stability of the buckle 3 during the sliding process.
[0075] In some embodiments, the buckle 3, the pressing portion 301 and the hook portion 302 are an integrally formed structure.
[0076] In this embodiment, the integrally formed structure of the buckle 3 , the pressing portion 301 and the hook portion 302 can improve the connection strength and ensure the stability of the pressing process.
[0077] In some embodiments, the elastic material block 4 is bonded to the limiting block 2 and the buckle 3 .
[0078] In this embodiment, since the prior art uses a spring to reset the buckle 3, a corresponding fixed structure bracket is also required to limit the spring, which prolongs the installation time. The elastic material block 4 is bonded to the limit block 2 and the buckle 3, which can greatly reduce the installation structure and reduce the production and installation time.
[0079] Optionally, the contact surfaces of the elastic material block 4, the limiting block 2 and the buckle 3 are bonded by double-sided tape or glue.
[0080] Optionally, the limiting block 2 and the buckle 3 are respectively provided with grooves adapted to the elastic material block 4 , which can enhance the connection strength between the elastic material block 4 and the limiting block 2 and the buckle 3 .
