[0033] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort should fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0034] As described in the background section, the design of battery compartment locks is particularly important in order to ensure the safe storage of batteries and prevent them from being stolen; however, traditional battery compartment locks often suffer from poor integration, which causes inconvenience to users.

[0035] To solve this technical problem, this utility model provides an intelligent lock structure and a battery compartment assembly.

[0036] For details, please refer to Figures 1-6 The smart lock structure specifically includes:

[0037] Lock 1 includes a motor box 101 and a lock cylinder seat 107 connected to the motor box 101. A lock cylinder assembly 103 is disposed between the motor box 101 and the lock cylinder seat 107. A receiving cavity is provided on the motor box 101. A driving member 102 is disposed in the receiving cavity. The driving member 102 extends to the outside of the receiving cavity and is connected to the lock cylinder assembly 103. The lock cylinder assembly 103 moves under the drive of the driving member 102.

[0038] By configuring the lock 1, this application integrates the drive component 102 and the lock cylinder assembly 103 between the lock cylinder seat 107 and the motor box 101, forming a modular design. This design is not only compact, but also provides effective protection for each component through the cooperation of the lock cylinder seat 107 and the motor box 101, making the lock 1 structure more stable and reliable.

[0039] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0040] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features and technical solutions in the present invention can be combined with each other.

[0041] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.

[0042] Example 1, please refer to Figures 1-6The intelligent lock structure includes a lock 1, which includes a motor box 101 and a lock cylinder seat 107 connected to the motor box 101. A lock cylinder assembly 103 is disposed between the motor box 101 and the lock cylinder seat 107. A receiving cavity is provided on the motor box 101, and a driving member 102 is disposed in the receiving cavity. The driving member 102 extends to the outside of the receiving cavity and is connected to the lock cylinder assembly 103. The lock cylinder assembly 103 moves under the drive of the driving member 102. By configuring the lock 1, this application integrates the driving member 102 and the lock cylinder assembly 103 between the lock cylinder seat 107 and the motor box 101, forming a modular design. This design is not only compact, but also provides effective protection for each component through the cooperation of the lock cylinder seat 107 and the motor box 101, making the lock 1 structure more stable and reliable.

[0043] Furthermore, such as Figures 2-6 As shown, the lock cylinder assembly 103 includes a slide block 1031 slidably connected between the motor box 101 and the lock cylinder seat 107. A side groove 1032 is provided in the slide block 1031. An elongated opening 1033 connected to the drive member 102 is provided at the bottom of the inner cavity of the side groove 1032. The side of the slide block 1031 contacts the motor box 101, so that the motor box 101 can limit the slide block 1031 to improve the stability of the slide block 1031 when it moves.

[0044] Furthermore, such as Figure 6 As shown, a connecting rod 1034 is inserted into the side groove 1032. One end of the connecting rod 1034 extends out of the side groove 1032 and is fixedly connected to a locking pin 1035. One end of the locking pin 1035 extends out of the lock cylinder seat 107 and extends to the outside of the lock cylinder seat 107. A ramp is provided at the end of the locking pin 1035 located outside the lock cylinder seat 107. The ramp causes the locking pin 1035 to move towards the slide block 1031 when it is squeezed. A limiting plate 1038 located in the side groove 1032 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the connecting rod 1034. The limiting plate 1038 can limit the connecting rod 1034, so that the slide block 1031 can drive the locking pin 1035 to retract into the driving member 102 through the limiting plate 1038 and the connecting rod 1034.

[0045] Furthermore, such as Figure 6 As shown, a first spring 1036 is sleeved on the outer surface of the locking pin 1035. The first spring 1036 is located between the side groove 1032 and the lock cylinder seat 107. After the locking pin 1035 is squeezed back into the lock cylinder seat 107, the first spring 1036 can make the locking pin 1035 extend and reset when the squeezing force is released.

[0046] Furthermore, such as Figure 6As shown, a second spring 1037 is provided in the side groove 1032. The two ends of the second spring 1037 are connected to the connecting rod 1034 and the side groove 1032 respectively. After the locking pin 1035 is squeezed back into the drive member 102, when the squeezing force is released, the second spring 1037 can push the locking pin 1035 out through the connecting rod 1034.

[0047] Example 2 further optimizes the smart lock structure provided in Example 1, specifically, as follows: Figure 3 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the drive unit 102 includes a motor body 1022 and a drive shaft 1024 located in the accommodating cavity. Both the motor body 1022 and the drive shaft 1024 are connected to bevel gears 1023, and the two bevel gears 1023 mesh with each other. The end of the drive shaft 1024 away from the bevel gears 1023 passes through the motor box 101 and is fixedly connected to a turntable 1025. A transmission pin 1026 is installed at the non-center of the turntable 1025. The end of the transmission pin 1026 is inserted into the inner wall of the elongated opening 1033. This arrangement allows the slide 1031 to reciprocate when the turntable 1025 rotates, through the mutual cooperation of the transmission pin 1026 and the elongated opening 1033. This causes the slide 1031 to drive the locking pin 1035 to extend or retract, thereby achieving locking and unlocking. The motor body 1022 is connected to the control system of the electric vehicle, and the operation of the motor body 1022 is controlled by the control system.

[0048] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, a motor cover 106 is installed in the accommodating cavity, and a motor pressure cover 1021 is connected between the motor cover 106 and the motor body 1022. The motor pressure cover 1021 is used to support the motor body 1022.

[0049] Furthermore, such as Figure 4-Figure 6 As shown, a circuit board 104 is installed on the motor cover 106. The circuit board 104 is connected to two Hall effect sensors 105. A magnet 109 is provided on the side groove 1032. The movement trajectory of the magnet 109 corresponds to the position of the two Hall effect sensors 105. The magnet 109 moves under the drive of the slide block 1031. When the magnet 109 reaches the position of the two Hall effect sensors 105, it serves as the stroke determination of the slide block 1031.

[0050] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, the lock cylinder base 107 is provided with a number of mounting holes 108, which are used for mounting the lock 1.

[0051] Example 3, please refer to Figures 1-2The battery compartment assembly includes a smart lock structure and a frame 2. The frame 2 has a battery compartment body 201, and a battery cover 3 covers the battery compartment body 201. One end of the battery cover 3 is connected to a locking plate 301 that engages with the battery compartment body 201. A locking hook 302 is fixedly connected to the side of the battery cover 3 near the battery compartment body 201. The lock 1 is installed inside the frame 2, and the locking pin 1035 engages with the locking hook 302. By engaging the locking plate 301 with the battery compartment body 201, that is, by engaging the locking pin 1035 with the locking hook 302, the battery cover 3 can be locked.

[0052] The usage process of the smart lock structure and battery compartment assembly provided by this utility model is as follows:

[0053] When unlocking, the motor body 1022 drives the turntable 1025 to rotate through the bevel gear 1023 and the transmission shaft 1024. During the rotation of the turntable 1025, the slide block 1031 is moved through the transmission pin 1026 and the elongated opening 1033. The slide block 1031 drives the locking pin 1035 to move through the limiting plate 1038 and the connecting rod 1034, so that the locking pin 1035 retracts into the lock cylinder seat 107, so that the locking pin 1035 separates from the locking hook 302. Pulling the end of the battery cover 3 near the locking hook 302 separates the card plate 301 from the battery compartment body 201, and the frame 2 can be removed. The motor body 1022 drives the turntable 1025 to rotate in the opposite direction, so that the locking pin 1035 extends.

[0054] When locking, insert the card plate 301 into the battery compartment body 201 and then cover it with the battery cover 3. During this process, the locking hook 302 presses the locking pin 1035, causing the locking pin 1035 to retract into the lock cylinder seat 107. When the locking hook 302 is in place, the locking pin 1035 extends and resets under the action of the first spring 1036 and the second spring 1037, so as to lock the locking hook 302.
