[0044] In the related art, most existing smart locks use a drive assembly to rotate a gear set, which drives the gear set to slide, and the gear set pushes against the end of the lock tongue to move, allowing the lock tongue to rotate until it is inserted into the keyhole to lock. The gear set then drives the rack to slide in the opposite direction, and an elastic member pushes against the end of the lock tongue to move, allowing the lock tongue to rotate and disengage from the keyhole to unlock. This structure requires an elastic member to achieve reciprocating movement of the lock tongue, and the gear rack transmission structure takes up a large amount of space, making it relatively complex.

[0045] In view of the above problems, the embodiments of the present application provide a smart lock and a vehicle, aiming to solve the technical problem of the complex structure of the smart lock.

[0052] In the smart lock provided in the present application, the lock tongue 2 is arranged in the first shell 11, and the drive assembly 33 is arranged in the second shell 12. By splitting the lock tongue 2 and the drive mechanism 3 and distributing them in the first shell 11 and the second shell 12, the width of the first shell 11 in the distribution direction of the first shell 11 and the third shell 13 can be reduced to reduce the overall external volume of the smart lock.

The lock tongue 2 slides through the first through-hole until it protrudes from the first housing 11, or slides into the first housing 11.

[0055] In some embodiments, the housing assembly 1 further includes a sealing ring, which is disposed on the first housing 11 . The sealing ring has a second through-hole, and the second through-hole is coaxially disposed with the first through-hole.

[0056] The sealing ring can prevent rainwater or dust from entering the first chamber 111 through the first penetration hole.

[0058] In some embodiments, a sealing ring surrounds the circumference of the locking tongue 2 , and when the locking tongue 2 slides to retract into the first housing 11 , the inner wall of the second through hole abuts against the locking tongue 2 to enhance the sealing effect.

[0059] Please refer to Figures 1 to 10 In the embodiment described in the present application, the movement of the driving end of the driving assembly 33 is a rotational movement, and the transmission assembly and the connecting member 31 are used to convert the rotational movement of the driving end of the driving assembly 33 into a sliding movement of the lock tongue 2.

Driven by the rotating shaft of the drive member 331, the transmission member 332 can be activated and output an appropriate rotational speed and torque to adjust the speed and torque of the driving end of the drive assembly 33, thereby achieving deceleration and force amplification.

[0062] Optionally, the transmission member 332 may be a single-stage transmission or a multi-stage transmission. The transmission member 332 may be a planetary gear transmission assembly (planetary reducer) to achieve deceleration and force amplification.

[0063] Please refer to Figures 7 to 10 In some embodiments, the transmission assembly includes a first guide rod 321, which is rotatably disposed on the housing assembly 1, and has a first end 3212 and a second end 3211 on both sides of the rotating shaft of the first guide rod 321, the first end 3212 is rotatably connected to the lock tongue 2, and the second end 3211 is slidably disposed in the slide rail 311; the connecting member 31 is connected to the driving assembly 33, and the connecting member 31 is rotatable under the drive assembly 33 to push the second end 3211 to move back and forth in the sliding direction of the lock tongue 2.

[0064] In the above embodiment, the rotation axis of the first guide rod 321 is parallel to the X direction in the figure. Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown in the figure), the first end 3212 of the first guide rod 321 moves in the direction opposite to the Y direction to drive the lock tongue 2 to slide in the direction opposite to the Y direction, so that the lock tongue 2 protrudes from the first housing 11 and is transversely arranged in the slot 14 (as shown in the figure). When the second end 3211 of the first guide rod 321 moves in the direction opposite to the Y direction (as shown in the figure), the lock tongue 2 is pushed out of the first housing 11 and is transversely arranged in the slot 14 (as shown in the figure). Figure 9 and Figure 10 As shown), the first end 3212 of the first guide rod 321 moves in the Y direction to drive the lock tongue 2 to slide in the Y direction, so that the lock tongue 2 retracts into the first housing 11 (as shown). Figure 3 shown).

[0065] Please refer to Figures 7 to 10 In some embodiments, the transmission assembly further includes a positioning member 322, the first guide rod 321 has a positioning hole (not shown in the figure), the positioning member 322 is arranged in the positioning hole, and the positioning member 322 is arranged on the shell assembly 1, the first guide rod 321 can rotate relative to the positioning member 322, and the rotating axis of the first guide rod 321 coincides with the central axis of the positioning member 322.

[0066] Please refer to Figures 7 to 10 In some embodiments, the rotating axis of the connecting member 31 is parallel to the sliding direction of the lock tongue 2, and the slide rail 311 has a first pushing surface 3111 and a second pushing surface 3112 arranged opposite to each other in the sliding direction of the lock tongue 2. The first pushing surface 3111 and the second pushing surface 3112 are both inclined relative to the sliding direction of the lock tongue 2, and the second end 3211 is slidably arranged between the first pushing surface 3111 and the second pushing surface 3112.

[0067] In the above embodiment, when the connecting member 31 rotates, the first pushing surface 3111 and the second pushing surface 3112 of the sliding rail 311 will abut against the second end 3211 and push the second end 3211 to slide in the sliding rail 311, so that the second end 3211 moves in the Y direction in the figure, causing the first guide rod 321 to rotate, so that the first end 3212 drives the lock tongue 2 to slide.

[0068] Please refer to Figure 7 It should be noted that the first pushing surface 3111 is located on the side of the second pushing surface 3112 facing the Y direction.

[0069] Please refer to Figures 7 to 10 In some embodiments, two slide rails 311 are provided on the connecting member 31, and both ends of the two slide rails 311 are connected to each other, so that the two slide rails 311 are spliced to form a through groove.

[0070] Through the above arrangement, the connecting member 31 only needs to rotate in one direction to realize the reciprocating swing of the first guide rod 321 to realize the reciprocating sliding of the lock tongue 2, and the driving end of the driving component 33 also only needs to rotate in one direction, which can simplify the movement of the driving component 33.

[0071] Please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 In the Y direction in the figure, the driving assembly 33 drives the connecting member 31 to rotate 180 degrees in the clockwise direction (or 180 degrees in the counterclockwise direction), and the inclined first pushing surface 3111 abuts against the second end 3211 of the first guide rod 321 and pushes the second end 3211 to move in the direction opposite to the Y direction, so that the lock tongue 2 slides in the Y direction, so that the lock tongue 2 retracts into the first housing 11 (as shown in FIG. Figure 3 ), and the relative positions of the connecting member 31, the first guide rod 321 and the lock tongue 2 are transformed into Figure 9 and Figure 10 The driving assembly 33 drives the connecting member 31 to rotate continuously 180 degrees in the clockwise direction (or continuously rotate 180 degrees in the counterclockwise direction), and the inclined second pushing surface 3112 abuts against the second end 3211 of the first guide rod 321 and pushes the second end 3211 to move in the Y direction, so that the lock tongue 2 slides in the direction opposite to the Y direction, so that the lock tongue 2 protrudes from the first housing 11 (as shown in FIG. Figure 1 ), the relative positions of the connecting member 31, the first guide rod 321 and the lock tongue 2 are transformed into Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown. Figure 7 Based on the state shown, the driving end of the driving component 33 only needs to drive the connecting member 31 to rotate 180 degrees to retract the lock tongue 2 into the first shell 11; the driving component 33 continues to drive the connecting member 31 to rotate in the same direction and relatively Figure 7 The locking tongue 2 is rotated 360 degrees as shown, so that the locking tongue 2 protrudes out of the first housing 11 again, thereby achieving reciprocating sliding of the locking tongue 2 .

[0072] Alternatively, only one slide rail 311 may be provided. In this embodiment, the connecting member 31 needs to rotate in two opposite directions to achieve the reciprocating swing of the first guide rod 321, and the driving end of the driving assembly 33 needs to rotate in two opposite directions. For example, when the relative positions of the connecting member 31, the first guide rod 321 and the lock tongue 2 are as follows: Figure 7 and Figure 8 On the basis of the figure, in the Y direction, the driving assembly 33 drives the connecting member 31 to rotate 180 degrees in the clockwise direction, and the inclined first pushing surface 3111 abuts against the second end 3211 of the first guide rod 321 and pushes the second end 3211 to move in the direction opposite to the Y direction, so that the lock tongue 2 slides in the Y direction, so that the lock tongue 2 retracts the first housing 11 (as shown in FIG. Figure 3 The driving assembly 33 then drives the connecting member 31 to rotate 180 degrees in the counterclockwise direction. The second push surface 3112 arranged obliquely abuts against the second end 3211 of the first guide rod 321 and pushes the second end 3211 to move in the Y direction, so that the lock tongue 2 slides in the direction opposite to the Y direction, so that the lock tongue 2 protrudes from the first housing 11 (as shown in FIG. Figure 1 ), the relative positions of the connecting member 31, the first guide rod 321 and the lock tongue 2 are transformed into Figure 7 and Figure 8 As shown. Figure 7 Based on the state shown, the driving assembly 33 drives the connecting member 31 to rotate 180 degrees clockwise, so that the lock tongue 2 can be retracted into the first shell 11; the driving assembly 33 then drives the connecting member 31 to rotate 180 degrees counterclockwise, so that the lock tongue 2 can protrude from the first shell 11 again, thereby realizing the reciprocating sliding of the lock tongue 2.

[0073] It should be noted that, in the Z direction, during the reciprocating movement of the first guide rod 321, the distance between the second end 3211 of the first guide rod 321 and the rotation axis of the first guide rod 321, as well as the distance between the first end 3212 of the first guide rod 321 and the rotation axis of the first guide rod 321, changes in real time. However, in the Z direction, the distance between the lock tongue 2 and the rotation axis of the first guide rod 321, as well as the distance between the connecting member 31 and the rotation axis of the first guide rod 321, remain unchanged. Therefore, if the first guide rod 321 were directly rotationally connected to the lock tongue 2, the motion transmission between the first guide rod 321 and the lock tongue 2 would be unstable.

[0074] In view of the above problems, please refer to Figure 8 and Figure 10 In some embodiments, the lock tongue 2 is provided with a limiting hole (not shown in the figure) with its opening facing the first guide rod 321, and the first end 3212 is rotatably disposed in the limiting hole.

[0075] In the above embodiment, during the reciprocating movement of the first guide rod 321, the first end 3212 can rotate in the limiting hole to adjust the distance between the first end 3212 and the rotation axis of the first guide rod 321 in the Z direction to improve the stability of the motion transmission between the first guide rod 321 and the lock tongue 2.

[0076] In some embodiments, the first end 3212 is spherical, so that the first end 3212 can rotate in any direction within the inner space of the locking tongue 2 .

[0077] Please refer to Figure 8 and Figure 10In some embodiments, the transmission assembly further includes a rolling bearing 323, which includes an outer ring 3231, a roller and an inner ring 3232. The outer ring 3231, the roller and the inner ring 3232 are arranged in sequence from the outside to the inside and cooperate with each other. The inner ring 3232 can rotate in any direction in the inner space of the outer ring 3231. The outer ring 3231 is set in the limiting hole, and the first end 3212 is connected to the inner ring 3232.

[0078] In the above embodiment, during the reciprocating movement of the first guide rod 321 , the rolling bearing 323 can adjust its center in real time, so that the motion transmission between the first guide rod 321 and the locking tongue 2 is more stable.

[0079] It should be noted that in Figures 7 to 10 In the illustrated embodiment, the transmission assembly includes a first guide rod 321, a positioning member 322, and a rolling bearing 323. The input end of the transmission assembly is the second end 3211 of the first guide rod 321, and the output end of the transmission assembly is the outer ring 3231 of the rolling bearing 323. The driving force applied by the drive mechanism 3 to the lock tongue 2 is the driving force applied by the outer ring 3231 of the rolling bearing 323 to the lock tongue 2. Driven by the drive assembly 33, the slide rail 311 can adjust the direction of the driving force applied by the drive mechanism 3 to the lock tongue 2. This means that, driven by the drive assembly 33, the slide rail 311 can convert the rotation of the driving end of the drive assembly 33 into the rotation of the first guide rod 321, allowing the first end 3212 of the first guide rod 321 to reciprocate in the sliding direction of the lock tongue 2, thereby driving the lock tongue 2 to slide to the notch disposed transversely in the latch slot 14 and to slide the lock tongue 2 into the housing assembly 1.

The second guide rod 324 has an external thread, and the connecting member 31 is sleeved on the second guide rod 324, and the connecting member 31 is provided with an internal thread engaged with the external thread. When the second guide rod 324 rotates, the connecting member 31 can move relative to the second guide rod 324 in the sliding direction of the lock tongue 2 to push the lock tongue 2 to slide.

[0084] Optionally, in some embodiments, the axial direction of the second guide rod 324 is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the lock tongue 2, and the rotating shaft of the second guide rod 324 is parallel to the axial direction of the second guide rod 324. The second guide rod 324 has a gear, and the connecting member 31 has a rack engaged with the gear. When the second guide rod 324 rotates, the connecting member 31 can move in the sliding direction of the lock tongue 2 to push the lock tongue 2 to slide.

[0085] In some embodiments, driven by the second guide rod 324, the connecting member 31 can move in a direction perpendicular to the sliding direction of the lock tongue 2, and the slide rail 311 has a third pushing surface 3113 and a fourth pushing surface 3114 relatively arranged in the sliding direction of the lock tongue 2, and the third pushing surface 3113 and the fourth pushing surface 3114 are both inclined relative to the sliding direction of the lock tongue 2, and part of the lock tongue 2 can be slidably arranged between the third pushing surface 3113 and the fourth pushing surface 3114.

[0086] In the above embodiment, when the connecting member 31 moves in a direction perpendicular to the sliding direction of the lock tongue 2 , the third pushing surface 3113 and the fourth pushing surface 3114 can abut against the lock tongue 2 and push the lock tongue 2 to slide.

[0087] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 Optionally, in some embodiments, the axial direction of the second guide rod 324 is perpendicular to the sliding direction of the lock tongue 2, and the rotating shaft of the second guide rod 324 is parallel to the axial direction of the second guide rod 324. The second guide rod 324 has an external thread, and the connecting member 31 is sleeved on the second guide rod 324, and the connecting member 31 is provided with an internal thread engaged with the external thread. When the second guide rod 324 rotates, the connecting member 31 can move relative to the second guide rod 324 along the axial direction of the second guide rod 324.

[0088] Optionally, in some embodiments, the axial direction of the second guide rod 324 is parallel to the sliding direction of the lock tongue 2, and the rotating shaft of the second guide rod 324 is parallel to the axial direction of the second guide rod 324.

When the second guide rod 324 rotates, the connecting member 31 can move in a direction perpendicular to the sliding direction of the lock tongue 2 to push the lock tongue 2 to slide.

[0089] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 It should be noted that, in the Z direction in the figure, the third pushing surface 3113 is located between the fourth pushing surface 3114 and the driving assembly 33.

[0090] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 The ends of the third pushing surface 3113 and the ends of the fourth pushing surface 3114 are spaced apart in the Y direction, and in the Z direction, the ends of the third pushing surface 3113 and the fourth pushing surface 3114 facing the Y direction are located on the side of the ends of the third pushing surface 3113 and the fourth pushing surface 3114 facing away from the Y direction. Therefore, when the second guide rod 324 drives the connecting member 31 to move away from the driving assembly 33 (toward the Z direction), the connecting member 31 (the third pushing surface 3113) pushes the lock tongue 2 to slide to the notch provided transversely in the latching slot 14; and when the second guide rod 324 drives the connecting member 31 to move toward the driving assembly 33 (away from the Z direction), the connecting member 31 (the fourth pushing surface 3114) pushes the lock tongue 2 to slide until it retracts into the first housing 11.

[0091] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, the connecting member 31 includes a connecting portion 312 and two supporting portions 313. The two supporting portions 313 are arranged opposite to each other, and both supporting portions 313 are connected to the connecting portion 312.

The main body 21 is located between the two supporting portions 313. One of the sliding portions 22 is arranged in one slide rail 311, and the other sliding portion 22 is arranged in the other slide rail 311.

[0092] Through the above arrangement, the two support portions 313 are respectively provided on both sides of the main body portion 21 , and the two support portions 313 respectively support and push one sliding portion 22 , which can make the sliding movement of the lock tongue 2 more stable.

[0093] Please refer to Figure 5In some embodiments, the transmission assembly further includes a third guide rod 325, which is disposed on the first shell 11, and the axis of the third guide rod 325 is parallel to the distribution direction of the driving assembly 33 and the lock tongue 2, and the connecting member 31 is slidably mounted on the third guide rod 325.

[0094] In the above embodiment, the axial direction of the third guide rod 325 is parallel to the axial direction of the second guide rod 324. When the second guide rod 324 rotates, the connecting member 31 moves along the axial direction of the second guide rod 324. The third guide rod 325 can limit the position of the connecting member 31 during the movement, thereby preventing the connecting member 31 from rotating relative to the second guide rod 324; and the third guide rod 325 also plays a guiding role for the connecting member 31, making the movement of the connecting member 31 more stable.

[0095] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, the transmission assembly further includes an input gear 326 and an output gear 327, the input gear 326 is connected to the driving end of the driving assembly 33, the output gear 327 is coaxially connected to the second guide rod 324, and the output gear 327 is engaged with the input gear 326, the driving assembly 33 is used to drive the input gear 326 to rotate, so that the output gear 327 can drive the second guide rod 324 to rotate so that the connecting member 31 can move relative to the second guide rod 324.

[0096] Optionally, the input gear 326 may be a worm gear, and the output gear 327 may be a helical gear.

[0097] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 In some embodiments, a lock core bracket 15 is provided in the first shell 11, the second guide rod 324 rotatably passes through the lock core bracket 15, the third guide rod 325 is provided on the lock core bracket 15, and the input gear 326 and the output gear 327 are both located on the side of the lock core bracket 15 away from the third guide rod 325.

[0098] Please refer to Figures 5 to 10 In some embodiments, a fourth guide rod 16 is provided in the shell assembly 1, and the axis of the fourth guide rod 16 extends in the distribution direction of the first shell 11 and the third shell 13 (the Y direction in the figure), and the lock tongue 2 can be slidably mounted on the fourth guide rod 16.

[0099] In the above embodiment, the fourth guide rod 16 guides the lock tongue 2, so that the movement of the lock tongue 2 is more stable.

[0100] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted in the second embodiment of the present application is as follows: a vehicle includes a vehicle body, a helmet, and the smart lock of the first embodiment. The housing assembly 1 is arranged on the vehicle body, and the helmet can be locked in the locking slot 14.

[0101] By applying the smart lock of the first embodiment described above to a vehicle, the helmet can be locked to the vehicle body, and the smart lock can be unlocked when needed.
