Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of locks, and more specifically, to an alarm device and a lock. Background Technology
[0002] As security demands increase, locks are becoming increasingly complex in structure and function. However, correspondingly, techniques and tools for cracking complex locks are also constantly evolving, making it impossible to completely eliminate illegal unlocking through technical means. To address this, a proactive security approach has been adopted, integrating active alarm devices into locks. These devices include features such as buzzer alarms, sending alerts to apps, voice recording, and lighting settings. When the lock is touched or subjected to unauthorized operation, these functions are activated to deter further unauthorized unlocking attempts. While this approach enhances proactive protection to some extent, activating and deactivating such alarms often relies on software operations or cumbersome multi-step processes, making it inconvenient in practical applications. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, an alarm device and lock are provided. This device simplifies the drawbacks of active alarm devices that rely on software operation or cumbersome multi-step processes for activation and deactivation.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the following technical solution is provided: an alarm device, comprising a limit element, a feedback device, a trigger element, and a locking element;
[0005] The locking component is used to lock or unlock the limiting component;
[0006] The trigger element is provided with an opening corresponding to the position of the locking element, allowing the unlocking tool to change the state of the locking element through the opening;
[0007] The trigger element is provided with a trigger part for cooperating with the adjustment feedback device;
[0008] When the locking element is in the locked state, the limit element is locked and the movement of the trigger element is restricted;
[0009] When the locking element is in the unlocked state, the limiting element is unlocked, the trigger element moves, and the adjustment is made through the coordination of the trigger part and the feedback device.
[0010] In a further optimization of this utility model, the trigger element is provided with a blind hole or a through hole, which allows a limiting element to be inserted to restrict the movement of the trigger element.
[0011] In a further optimization of this utility model, at least a portion of the limiting member is located in the movement path of the trigger member, and the movement of the trigger member is restricted by the abutment method.
[0012] A further optimization of this invention is that the feedback device is equipped with a Hall sensor;

[0016] The alarm device is as described above.
[0017] The locking rod abuts against the limiting member;
[0018] The locking element is used to lock or unlock the locking bar;
[0019] When the locking member locks the locking rod, the locking rod restricts the movement of the limiting member;
[0020] When the locking member unlocks the locking bar, the locking bar moves to create clearance space for the limiting member to move.
[0021] A further optimization of this utility model includes a housing, wherein an elastic element is provided between the housing and the limiting member;
[0022] The limiting member is kept away from the trigger member by the elastic element to move away from the unlocking member.
[0023] A further optimization of this utility model includes an interface component;
[0024] The interface is used to adjust the feedback device and / or charge the feedback device.
[0025] A further optimization of this utility model is that the trigger element is provided with a clearance part;
[0026] The clearance section is used to avoid the interface component;
[0027] A further optimization of this utility model is that the shell is provided with several grooves;
[0028] The trigger element at least has an elastic avoidance portion;
[0029] The clearance portion is provided with a snap-fit portion for engaging with the groove;
[0030] When the trigger moves, the locking part engages in the corresponding groove to provide damping for the movement of the trigger.
[0031] This technical solution has the following beneficial effects:
[0032] 1. The feedback device is adjusted by moving the trigger element, making it easy for personnel to operate;
[0033] 2. The locking and unlocking states of the limit components are controlled by locking components, simplifying the operation process of unlocking and locking trigger components;

[0042] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. Identical components are indicated by the same reference numerals. It should be noted that the terms "front," "rear," "left," "right," "upper," and "lower" used in the following description refer to directions in the accompanying drawings, and the terms "bottom surface," "top surface," "inner," and "outer" refer to directions toward or away from the geometric center of a specific component, respectively.
[0043] Reference Figure 1-6 As shown, an alarm device includes a limiter 1, a feedback device 2, a trigger 3, and a locking device 4;
[0044] Locking component 4 is used to lock or unlock limiting component 1;
[0045] The trigger 3 is provided with an opening 31 corresponding to the position of the locking element 4, through which the unlocking tool changes the state of the locking element 4;
[0046] The trigger element 3 is provided with a trigger part for cooperating with the adjustment feedback device 2;
[0047] When the locking element 4 is in the locked state, the limiting element 1 is locked, and the movement of the trigger element 3 is restricted.
[0048] When the locking member 4 is in the unlocked state, the limiting member 1 is unlocked, the moving trigger member 3 is moved, and the trigger part cooperates with the feedback device 2 to make adjustments.
[0049] When the locking member 4 is in the locked state, the locking member 4 locks the limiting member 1 by means of mechanical engagement or electromagnetic adsorption, so that the limiting member 1 is fixed, thereby restricting the movement of the trigger member 3.
[0050] like Figure 2-5 As shown, the locking rod 5 is restricted by the locking member 4 through the plug-in method, thereby indirectly restricting the movement of the limiting member 1. At the same time, the locking member 4 can be rotated to unlock the locking rod 5, thereby unlocking the limiting member 1. The locking rod 5 and the limiting member 1 can be integrally formed or separate, both of which can achieve the function of this solution.
[0051] When the locking member 4 is switched to the unlocked state through the opening 31 on the trigger member 3 (e.g., by a key or tool), the locking member 4 releases the limiting member 1, the limiting member 1 moves, the trigger member 3 can move along the preset path, the trigger part moves with the trigger member 3 and interacts with the feedback device 2 (such as a Hall sensor, infrared sensor, etc.), and adjusts the working state of the feedback device 2 through physical contact or signal trigger.
[0052] The working status of the feedback device 2 can be activated or deactivated by moving the trigger 3 within a fixed time period. It can also be activated by moving the trigger 3 multiple times in a short period of time to achieve functions such as adjusting the buzzer alarm tone and volume, setting whether to send a warning to the APP, setting the alarm delay time, setting to record or select a specific voice prompt (such as "Do not touch"), setting the LED light mode adjustment, and setting the trigger sensitivity adjustment.
[0053] This design integrates the multi-functional settings of the feedback device 2 into the mechanical operation, without relying on software, making it suitable for elderly people or children who do not understand software debugging, thus improving convenience.
[0054] The feedback device 2 can integrate at least one sensor such as a displacement sensor, an acceleration sensor, or a vibration sensor, so as to sense whether the locking mechanism has been touched or moved by a person when the locking member 4 is locked, thereby triggering a series of feedback actions.
[0055] When it is necessary to release, a tool is inserted through the opening 31 of the trigger 3 to unlock the locking part 4, thereby releasing the alarm and other actions of the feedback device 2.
[0056] The alarm delay of the early warning device can also be set to reduce the number of alarms caused by accidental activation or other factors.
[0057] Preferably, the trigger 3 is provided with a blind hole or through hole 33, which allows the limiting member 1 to be inserted to restrict the movement of the trigger 3.
[0058] like Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the trigger 3 is provided with a through hole 33 for the limiter 1 to be inserted;
[0059] Furthermore, the through hole 33 on the trigger 3 can be matched with the end shape of the limiting member 1;
[0060] When the limiting member 1 is inserted into the blind hole or through hole 33, the locking member 4 locks the limiting member 1.
[0061] When the locking member 4 unlocks the limiting member 1, the limiting member 1 exits from the blind hole or through hole 33, and the trigger member 3 can move freely to adjust or deactivate the warning device.
[0062] The device achieves rapid locking and unlocking through a simple insertion and disengagement mechanism using blind or through holes 33, improving the device's durability and operational efficiency.
[0063] Preferably, at least a portion of the limiting member 1 is located in the movement path of the trigger member 3, and the movement of the trigger member 3 is restricted by abutting.
[0064] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, a portion of the limiting member 1 extends onto the movement trajectory of the trigger member 3. When the locking member 4 locks the limiting member 1, the limiting member 1 directly blocks the movement of the trigger member 3 by abutting its surface.
[0065] When the locking element 4 unlocks the limiting element 1, the limiting element 1 retracts or moves. When it leaves the path of the trigger element 3, the trigger element 3 can move.
[0066] The abutment method simplifies the structural design, making it easy to install and maintain. The abutment surfaces of the limiting component 1 and the trigger component 3 can be designed with wear-resistant materials to increase service life. At the same time, guide rails or sliders can be added to guide the movement and ensure sliding accuracy.
[0067] Preferably, the feedback device 2 is equipped with a Hall sensor;
[0068] The trigger part is a magnet;
[0069] The trigger moves and engages with the Hall sensor to adjust the feedback device 2.
[0070] When the trigger 3 moves, the trigger part moves with it, changing its relative position with the Hall sensor;
[0071] The Hall sensor detects changes in the magnetic field and outputs a signal, thereby adjusting the state of the feedback device 2 (such as triggering an alarm or stopping the alarm).
[0072] This non-contact interaction reduces mechanical wear, improves response accuracy and lifespan, and achieves silent and rapid feedback adjustment through magnetic signals, making it suitable for high-safety scenarios.
[0073] The Hall sensor can be fixed on the circuit board of the feedback device 2. The magnet and the trigger 3 are fixed by inserts or adhesives. A shielding layer can be set between them to reduce interference. The feedback device 2 may also include a signal processor to convert the output of the Hall sensor into control commands.
[0074] A lock includes an alarm device and a locking bar 5;
[0075] Locking rod 5 abuts against limiting member 1;
[0076] Locking element 4 is used to lock or unlock locking lever 5;
[0077] When the locking element 4 locks the locking rod 5, the locking rod 5 restricts the movement of the limiting element 1;
[0078] When the locking element 4 unlocks the locking rod 5, the locking rod 5 moves to create clearance space for the limiting element 1 to move;
[0079] The alarm device is as described above.
[0080] In the lock, the locking rod 5 is locked or unlocked by the locking member 4 (which can be the lock cylinder). When the locking member 4 locks the locking rod 5, the locking rod 5 abuts against the limiting member 1, preventing it from moving, thereby indirectly limiting the trigger member 3 of the alarm device.
[0081] When the locking member 4 unlocks the locking rod 5, the locking rod 5 moves to create a clearance space, and the limiting member 1 can move freely to release the restriction of the trigger member 3, allowing the trigger member 3 to operate and adjust the feedback device 2;
[0082] This integrated design links the alarm function with the lock mechanism, using the lock cylinder to unlock or lock the trigger element 3, improving security and convenience while reducing the cumbersome operation caused by software.
[0083] Preferably, it also includes a housing 6, and an elastic element is provided between the housing 6 and the limiting member 1;
[0084] Limiting element 1 is kept away from trigger element 3 by elastic element to move away from unlocking element 3.
[0085] An elastic element (such as a spring or rubber pad) is disposed between the housing 6 and the limiting element 1, providing elastic force so that the limiting element 1 always tends to move away from the trigger element 3;
[0086] When the locking element 4 unlocks the locking lever 5, the elastic element pushes the limiting element 1 to move quickly away from the path of the trigger element 3, thus promoting the movement of the trigger element 3;
[0087] When locking member 4 locks locking rod 5, locking rod 5 overcomes the elastic force and abuts against limiting member 1;
[0088] This design ensures the automatic reset of the limit component 1, reduces operating resistance, and improves response speed;
[0089] The elastic element can be fixed to the housing 6 by a slot or screw hole. A guide rod or other guiding component can also be provided between the limiting element 1 and the elastic element to ensure the movement trajectory.
[0090] The housing 6 can also integrate a guide rail to guide the movement of the limiting member 1 and the trigger member 3.
[0091] Preferably, it also includes an interface component 7;
[0092] The interface 7 is used to regulate the feedback device 2 and / or charge the feedback device 2.
[0093] Interface 7 (such as a USB port or wireless module) is connected to feedback device 2, and feedback parameters (such as sensitivity or volume) are adjusted or charging is performed via an external device (such as a computer or charger);
[0094] By providing an interface for professionals to adjust, more complex settings can be achieved, while also increasing the number of users who can use it.
[0095] The interface 7 can be used for charging, thereby reusing the battery to achieve energy conservation.
[0096] Preferably, the trigger element 3 is provided with a clearance part 32;
[0097] The avoidance part 32 is used to avoid the interface part 7;
[0098] To reduce the connection path, interface 7 will connect to feedback device 2 via a shorter path, which will cause the movement of trigger 3 to be obstructed.
[0099] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the trigger 3 is provided with a clearance part 32 (such as a groove 61 or an opening 31) to bypass the interface 7 when moving, so as to avoid interference with the interface 7, and ensure that the trigger 3 moves smoothly throughout the entire process without contacting the interface 7, thereby avoiding wear or even failure of the interface 7.
[0100] This design optimizes spatial layout, reduces conflicts between multiple components, and improves overall reliability and service life.
[0101] The clearance part 32 can be designed in an arc shape to match the shape of the interface part 7;
[0102] A gap is maintained between the trigger element 3 and the interface element 7, and alignment can be ensured by positioning through the housing 6 to prevent interference.
[0103] Preferably, the housing 6 is provided with a plurality of grooves 61;
[0104] The trigger element 3 has at least one flexible avoidance part 32;
[0105] The clearance part 32 is provided with a locking part 321 for engaging with the groove 61;
[0106] When the trigger 3 moves, the locking part 321 engages in the corresponding groove 61 to provide damping for the movement of the trigger 3.
[0107] The avoidance part 32 of the trigger 3 is made of an elastic material (such as plastic or metal sheet), such as Figure 6 As shown, during movement, the snap-fit part 321 snaps into the groove 61 on the housing 6 to form segmented positioning, providing tactile feedback and stabilizing the position of the trigger 3, thus preventing accidental slippage;
[0108] This structure enhances the handling feel and ensures a tight fit between the snap-fit part 321 and the groove 61 through elastic restoring force, improving accuracy and durability.
[0109] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model. The protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions falling within the scope of this utility model's concept are within its protection scope. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, any improvements and modifications made without departing from the principle of this utility model should also be considered within its protection scope.
