Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of intelligent locks, and specifically relates to intelligent locks and anti-theft doors. Background Art

[0002] At present, there are two ways to input passwords on fingerprint locks on the market. One is to directly press the sensing element through a button, and the other is to install a silicone pad under the button, and the pressure is transmitted through the silicone pad to press the sensing element. In related technologies, when inputting passwords on intelligent locks, external substances such as buttons or silicone pads are required. After long-term use, the button is pressed multiple times, and fatigue will occur at its connection, reducing the sensitivity of the button and shortening its service life. When the pressure is transmitted through the silicone pad, the silicone pad will also produce irreversible deformation after being pressed multiple times, reducing the sensitivity of the button, and using buttons and silicone pads will increase the cost of intelligent locks. Utility Model Content

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of this application. Apparently, the described embodiments are some but not all of the embodiments of this application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments in this application without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of this application.

[0024] Press the buttons in sequence. The buttons directly press the sensing components inside the intelligent lock or the buttons press the sensing components through the silicone pads, causing the sensing components to deform. After the sensing components are deformed, they send sensing signals to the unlocking module, and the unlocking module controls unlocking upon receiving the sensing signals.

[0025] The following combines Figure 1 , to describe the embodiments of this application.

[0026] According to an embodiment of this application, on the one hand, an intelligent lock is provided, including a lock shell 1, a panel 2, a plurality of sensing components, and an unlocking module;

[0027] Specifically, the lock shell 1 is provided with installation holes; the panel 2 is installed in the installation holes, and a plurality of pressing areas are provided on the panel 2; a plurality of sensing components are respectively attached to the panel 2, and the sensing components correspond to the pressing areas one by one; the plurality of sensing components are respectively communicatively connected to the unlocking module. When the pressing areas are pressed, the sensing components are deformed and send sensing signals to the unlocking module.

[0028] When unlocking, press the plurality of pressing areas in sequence. The panel 2 undergoes a slight deformation. However, since the sensing components are attached to the panel 2 and no other pressure transmission components are provided between the sensing components and the panel 2, the sensing components can sense the slight deformation generated in the pressing areas of the panel 2. After the sensing components are deformed, they send sensing signals to the unlocking module, and the unlocking module controls unlocking. Attaching the sensing components to the panel 2 can eliminate the need for buttons and the pressure transmission components between the buttons and the sensing components, saving costs and eliminating the problem that the buttons and pressure transmission components become fatigued after long-term use, resulting in low sensitivity when entering passwords.

[0029] It should be noted that different password patterns are provided on each pressing area.

[0030] Further explained, the password patterns include digital patterns and patterns of special symbols, and the patterns of special symbols are designed according to different requirements.

[0031] Further described, the sensing component can be a solder pad.

[0032] In one embodiment, it further includes a circuit board 3, which is connected inside the lock case 1. A plurality of sensing elements are arranged on the side of the circuit board 3 opposite to the panel 2, and the unlocking module is arranged on the side of the circuit board 3 facing away from the panel 2. A plurality of sensing elements are arranged on the circuit board 3, and the circuit board 3 is arranged close to the panel 2 so that the sensing elements are in non-pressure contact with the panel 2. When the pressing area is pressed, the sensing elements can be deformed to generate sensing signals.

[0033] Furthermore, the circuit board 3 is a PCB board (printed circuit board), and the PCB board adopts single-chip soldering, and components are all installed on the side of the PCB board away from the panel 2.

[0034] In one embodiment, it further includes a backlight. The material of the panel 2 is a transparent material. The circuit board 3 is provided with a plurality of light-transmitting holes corresponding to the plurality of pressing areas, and the sensing elements are provided with through holes corresponding to the light-transmitting holes. The backlight is installed on the inner wall of the lock case 1 and on the side of the circuit board 3 away from the panel 2. The backlight emits light, and the light irradiates the panel 2 through the light-transmitting holes. Since the panel 2 is a light-transmitting material, when the light is dim, the position of the pressing area can be clearly seen, and the password pattern set on the pressing area can also be seen.

[0035] In a specific embodiment, the material of the panel 2 can be selected as glass.

[0036] In one embodiment, it further includes a reflector, which is installed on the inner wall of the lock case 1. The reflecting surface of the reflector is arranged corresponding to the circuit board 3, and the backlight is arranged facing the reflecting surface of the reflector. By irradiating the light onto the reflector, the backlight can diverge the point light source, and the light is reflected to the light homogenizing film through the reflecting surface of the reflector, improving the backlight effect.

[0037] In one embodiment, the reflecting surface of the reflector is recessed away from the circuit board 3 corresponding to the plurality of light-transmitting holes to form a plurality of light-gathering grooves. The light-gathering grooves can gather the light, and the gathered light is reflected to the pressing area through the light-transmitting holes, improving the brightness of the pressing area and making the password pattern on the pressing area clearer in a dim environment.

[0038] In a specific embodiment, the bottom of the light-gathering groove is a spherical arc surface, improving the light-gathering effect.

[0039] In one embodiment, it further includes a light homogenizing film, which is installed on the inner wall of the lock case 1 and between the backlight and the circuit board 3. The light emitted by the backlight irradiates the light homogenizing film, and the light homogenizing film can make the light more uniform and soft. The light irradiates the pressing area through the light-transmitting holes from the light homogenizing film, making the password pattern set on the pressing area backlit, and facilitating password input in places with insufficient light.

[0040] In one embodiment, it further includes a plurality of connectors 4. Each of the plurality of connectors 4 is provided with a connecting portion and a mounting portion. A plurality of connecting posts 5 are connected to one side surface of the circuit board 3 away from the panel 2. The mounting portion is connected to the inner wall of the lock housing 1, and the connecting portion is connected to the plurality of connecting posts 5. The plurality of mounting portions are fixed to the inner wall of the lock housing 1, and the plurality of connecting portions are correspondingly connected to the plurality of connecting posts 5, so that the sensing elements on the circuit board 3 are in non-pressure contact with the panel 2.

[0041] Further, the connecting posts 5 are fixed to the PCB board by means of SMT (Surface Mount Technology).

[0042] In a specific embodiment, the mounting portion is fixed to the inner wall of the lock housing 1 by bonding, screws or other fixing means.

[0043] In a specific embodiment, the connecting posts 5 are provided in four numbers and are respectively connected to the four corner positions of the PCB board. The connectors 4 are provided in four numbers, and the four connecting posts 5 are correspondingly inserted into the connecting grooves 6 of the four connectors 4.

[0044] In one embodiment, the connecting portion is provided with a connecting groove 6 corresponding to the connecting post 5, and the plurality of connecting posts 5 are connected in the connecting groove 6. The connecting post 5 is inserted into the connecting groove 6, which makes the connection more convenient.

[0045] It should be noted that the connector 4 is a connecting block. One side surface of the connecting block is fixed to the inner wall of the lock housing 1, and a connecting groove 6 is provided on the opposite surface of the connecting block and the circuit board 3.

[0046] In a specific embodiment, a connecting step is provided on the inner wall of the lock housing 1, and the connecting block is fixed on the connecting step.

[0047] In one embodiment, the connecting post 5 is provided with a threaded connection hole, and a through hole is correspondingly provided at the bottom of the connecting groove 6 for the threaded connection hole. The connecting post 5 is connected to the connecting groove 6 by a connecting bolt 7. The screw end of the connecting bolt 7 passes through the through hole and is connected to the threaded hole, fixing the connecting post 5 in the connecting groove 6.

[0048] In another specific embodiment, a threaded adjustment hole is provided at the bottom of the connecting groove 6. The adjustment bolt is screwed into the threaded adjustment hole, and the end of the adjustment bolt abuts against the bottom of the connecting post 5. The distance between the circuit board 3 and the panel 2 is adjusted by rotating the adjustment bolt.

[0049] Embodiment 1, combined with Figure 1 Fully elaborate on all the above solutions.

[0050] The transparent panel 2 is installed in the installation hole of the lock housing 1. Inside the lock housing 1, an induction component, a circuit board 3, a light homogenizing film, a backlight, and a reflector are sequentially arranged from a position far away from the panel 2. Multiple pressing areas are provided on the outer surface of the panel 2, and a password pattern is provided on each pressing area. The password pattern includes a digital pattern and a pattern of special symbols. An induction component is attached to the other side of the panel 2 corresponding to each pressing area. When the pressing area is pressed, the corresponding induction component will deform. After the induction component deforms, it sends an induction signal to the unlocking module, and the unlocking module controls the unlocking. Attaching the induction component to the panel 2 can eliminate the need for buttons and the pressure transmission components between the buttons and the induction component, saving costs, and can also eliminate the fatigue generated by the buttons and the pressure transmission components after long-term use, reducing the problem of low sensitivity when entering passwords. The backlight irradiates the light onto the light-emitting plate, which can diverge the point light source. The light is reflected onto the light homogenizing film through the reflecting surface of the reflector, improving the backlight effect. Moreover, the light-gathering groove can gather the light, and the gathered light is reflected onto the light homogenizing film through the light-transmitting hole, improving the overall brightness of the light homogenizing film, making the password pattern on the pressing area clearer in a darker environment. One side surface of the connecting block is fixedly bonded to the inner wall of the lock housing 1. A connecting groove 6 is formed on the opposite surface of the connecting block and the circuit board 3. The connecting column 5 is inserted into the connecting groove 6 and locked by a connecting bolt 7.
