DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS

[0027] The technical solution of the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and through specific embodiments.

[0028] As Figures 1 to 8 shown, the intelligent lock backup unlocking device provided in this embodiment includes a push rod 1, an unlocking piece 2, a rod sleeve 3, a retaining pin 4, and a password lock 5. An unlocking piece 2 is connected to the push rod 1. In order to adapt to the unlocking scenario of the intelligent key, the unlocking piece 2 needs to be inserted into the unlocking hole of the intelligent lock and then rotated, that is, translated and then rotated, so as to unlock the intelligent lock. Correspondingly, the push rod 1 in this embodiment is located inside the rod sleeve 3 and is slidably matched with the rod sleeve 3. Due to the constraint of the rod sleeve 3, the push rod 1 can rotate relative to the rod sleeve 3 and can also translate relative to the rod sleeve 3. In this way, the push rod 1 can drive the unlocking piece 2 to translate and rotate. In order to enable the intelligent lock backup unlocking device to act as a backup key, the premise that the unlocking piece 2 can translate and rotate is to obtain the correct password. In this embodiment, the translation of the unlocking piece 2 is restricted. That is to say, only when the correct password is input into the password lock 5, the unlocking piece 2 can translate. Therefore, a retaining pin 4 is provided. The pin body 41 of the retaining pin 4 is located inside the rod sleeve 3 and is in contact with the push rod 1, and the two are not fixedly connected. When the push rod 1 translates, it will drive the retaining pin 4 to translate. However, when the push rod 1 rotates, since the push rod 1 is not fixedly connected to the pin body 41, the pin body 41 cannot restrict the rotation of the push rod 1. The slot 42 of the retaining pin 4 extends out of the sliding slot 31 on the rod sleeve 3 and is slidably matched with the sliding slot 31, that is, the movement of the retaining pin 4 is restricted by the sliding slot 31 and can only translate along the sliding slot 31. The password lock 5 is located on one side of the rod sleeve 3, and a part of the slot 42 extends into the password lock 5. When the unlocking slots 40 of the dials and the sealing plate 53 on the password lock 5 are aligned, the retaining pin 4 can slide relative to the unlocking slot 40 on the password lock 5. The password lock 5 is a dial password lock. Only when the correct password is input into the password lock 5, the unlocking slots 40 of the dials and the sealing plate 53 on the password lock 5 will be aligned, and the retaining pin 4 can translate along the sliding slot 31. In this way, the unlocking piece 2 can translate and rotate only when the correct password is obtained, so as to adapt to the unlocking scenario of the intelligent key and unlock the intelligent lock, achieving the purpose of using the unlocking piece as the unlocking key of the intelligent key. This is equivalent to the intelligent lock having an additional backup key that requires a password. As long as the user remembers the password and does not need to carry a physical key anymore, this completely solves the problems such as the failure of the intelligent lock and the loss of the key.

[0029] The spare unlocking device of the intelligent lock provided in this embodiment further includes a fixing plate 6. A limiting groove 11 is provided on the push rod 1 located inside the fixing plate 6. The shape of the pin body 41 is adapted to that of the limiting groove 11, and the pin body 41 is located in the limiting groove 11. Since the pin body 41 is located in the limiting groove 11 and is in contact with the push rod 1, the pin body 41 does not limit the rotation of the push rod 1. However, when the push rod 1 moves linearly, it will drive the pin body 41 to move linearly through the limiting groove 11. Similarly, when the pin body 41 is constrained to move linearly along the sliding groove 31, since the pin body 41 is located in the limiting groove 11, the push rod 1 cannot move linearly either. At this time, even if the pin body 41 can still rotate, the unlocking piece 2 cannot reach the unlocking hole of the intelligent lock. That is to say, whether the unlocking piece 2 can be unlocked depends on whether the pin body 41 can move linearly.

[0030] The spare unlocking device of the intelligent lock provided in this embodiment further includes a key piece 30. The key piece 30 is inserted into the fixing plate 6. An unlocking groove 12 is provided at one end of the push rod 1. An unlocking head 301 adapted to the unlocking groove 12 is provided on the key piece 30. When the unlocking head 301 of the key piece 30 is inserted into the unlocking groove 12, it can push the push rod 1 to move linearly inward and rotate. A connecting groove 13 is provided at the other end of the push rod 1. The end of the unlocking piece 2 is connected to the inner wall of the connecting groove 13 through a pin 7 or a screw. When the push rod 1 moves linearly and rotates, the unlocking piece 2 is also connected to the push rod 1, and the unlocking piece 2 will follow the push rod 1 to move linearly and rotate.

[0031] The password lock 5 includes an outer dial 51, an inner dial 52, and at least one password disk 53. Unlocking grooves 40 are provided at the edges of the inner dial 52 and each password disk 53. The outer dial 51 is connected to the inner dial 52 through a rotating shaft 54. A bushing 55 is provided on the rotating shaft 54. At least one password disk 53 is sleeved on the bushing 55. Preferably, the password lock 5 has two password disks 53. The latch 4 has two card slots 42. The edge of the password disk 53 is located within the card slot 42. Correspondingly, the latch 4 also has three protrusions 43. The protrusions 43 extend into the gaps between the password disks 53 and the gaps between the password disks 53 and the inner dial 52. The three protrusions 43 and the two card slots 42 are alternately distributed. When the inner dial 52 and at least one password disk 53 rotate, the latch 4 does not interfere with the rotation of the password disk 53 or the inner dial 52. However, when the unlocking grooves 40 of the inner dial 52 and the two password disks 53 are not aligned, the inner dial 52 and the two password disks will prevent the latch 4 from translating. Since the dial password lock is a password lock already used in the market, this embodiment is an improvement and application of alignment. Therefore, the description of how the password lock 5 realizes the alignment of the unlocking grooves 40 by inputting the correct numbers is omitted in this embodiment. One can also refer to the Chinese patent with the patent application number 202420981864.5. Further preferably, the password lock 5 includes two password disks 53. A first type of gasket 56 is provided on the outer sides of the two password disks 53. A second type of gasket 57 is provided between the two password disks 53. The thickness of the second type of gasket 57 is greater than that of the first type of gasket 56 because the second type of gasket 57 has the function of adjusting the distance between the two password disks 53. The intelligent lock backup unlocking device provided in this embodiment further includes a fixing plate 6. An elastic body 58 is provided between the first type of gasket 56 away from the inner dial 52 and the fixing plate 6. The elastic body 58 is preferably a corrugated spring or a common spring. The relative movement of the inner dial 52 and at least one password disk 53 of the password lock 5 should not be overly restricted axially along the rotating shaft 54, as it is not easy to adapt to different forces used during unlocking. Due to its slight spring-back effect, the elastic body 58 is very suitable for restricting the axial movement of the two password disks 53 along the rotating shaft 54, that is, allowing them to have a slight displacement axially. Further preferably, a sleeve hole 521 is provided in the middle of the inner dial 52. The inner dial 52 is connected to one end of the rotating shaft 54 through a screw 8 passing through the sleeve hole 521. The other end of the rotating shaft 54 is connected to the outer dial 51. Thus, when the outer dial 51 rotates, it will drive the inner dial 52 to rotate. There is a scale disk 511 around the outer dial 51, which facilitates the user to input the password by referring to the scale disk 511. Multiple mounting holes 522 for mounting the dial rod 9 are provided on the inner dial 52. A dedicated dial rod can be provided on the inner dial 52, or a screw can be screwed into the circular through-hole 227 to act as a dial rod. The password disk 53 can be driven to rotate through the dial rod.

[0032] The spare unlocking device of the intelligent lock provided in this embodiment further includes a receiving cylinder 10. The receiving cylinder 10 is fixed to the inner side of the fixing plate 6. The rod sleeve 3 and the password lock 5 are located inside the receiving cylinder 10. The receiving cylinder 10 can facilitate the installation of the spare unlocking device of the intelligent lock and can also protect structures such as the rod sleeve 3 and the password lock 5 from being knocked. In addition, the spare unlocking device of the intelligent lock provided in this embodiment further includes a handle cap 20. The handle cap 20 is connected to the fixing plate 6 in a covering manner. When it is necessary to input a password by turning the outer dial 51, the handle cap 20 is opened, so that the outer dial 51 is exposed. When it is not necessary to input a password, the handle cap 20 can prevent dust.

[0033] The present utility model is described by way of preferred embodiments. Those skilled in the art will appreciate that various changes or equivalent replacements can be made to these features and embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present utility model. The present utility model is not limited by the specific embodiments disclosed herein, and other embodiments falling within the scope of the claims of this application belong to the scope of protection of the present utility model.
