[0056] Please refer to Figures 10-11 , Figure 10 is a structural schematic diagram of a shared charging device provided by an embodiment of the present application. Figure 11is a structural schematic diagram of a power bank combined with an electronic lock provided by an embodiment of the present application. The present application provides a shared charging device 1000, which comprises a cabinet 100 and an electronic lock 1. The cabinet 100 is provided with a plurality of installation slots 101, each of which is used for detachably installing a power bank 200. The installation slot 101 comprises an insertion opening 1011, so that each power bank 200 is inserted into the installation slot 101 through the insertion opening 1011. The electronic lock 1 is arranged beside the installation slot 101 and is used for locking and unlocking the corresponding power bank 200 in the installation slot 101.
[0057] Please refer to Figures 1-2 , Figure 1 is a first internal structure schematic diagram of an electronic lock provided by an embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 is a second internal structure schematic diagram of an electronic lock provided by an embodiment of the present application. The present application provides an electronic lock 1 installed in a shared charging device 1000 and used for locking and unlocking a power bank 200 in the shared charging device 1000 to prevent the power bank 200 from being illegally stolen or misused. The electronic lock 1 comprises a shell 11 and an elastic lock hook 12, a toggle structure 13, a home switch 14, a driving motor 15 and a motor reset key 16 arranged inside the shell 11. The elastic lock hook 12 is operatively slidable along the shell 11, and the sliding direction of the elastic lock hook 12 is perpendicular to the insertion direction of the power bank 200. The toggle structure 13 and the home switch 14 are arranged on the two sides of the elastic lock hook 12, respectively. The driving motor 15 is electrically connected with the toggle structure 13. The toggle structure 13 is operatively toggled to the elastic lock hook 12 under the driving of the driving motor 15, so as to make the elastic lock hook 12 slide to the inside of the shell 11 to unlock the corresponding power bank 200. The home switch 14 is used for detecting whether the elastic lock hook 12 is at a home position. The motor reset key 16 is arranged on the side of the toggle structure 13 away from the elastic lock hook 12 and in rotational contact with the toggle structure 13, and is used for detecting whether the driving motor 15 is at a reset position.
[0058] In the present embodiment, the home position is used for judging whether the power bank 200 corresponding to the elastic lock hook 12 is correctly homed. When the elastic lock hook 12 slides to the home position, the home switch 14 will be triggered, thereby confirming that the power bank 200 corresponding to the elastic lock hook 12 has been accurately homed, and thus improving the reliability and safety of the electronic lock 1. The reset position refers to a specific position to which the driving motor 15 needs to return after completing the unlocking operation. The specific position is a reference point for the driving motor 15 to start the next unlocking operation. When the driving motor 15 drives the toggle structure 13 to rotate to the reset position, the motor reset key 16 will be triggered, thereby detecting that the driving motor 15 has reached the reset position, and ensuring the reliability and repeatability of the electronic lock 1.
[0059] Please refer toFigure 4 , Figure 4 is a schematic diagram of the external structure of the electronic lock provided in an embodiment of the present application. The shell 11 comprises an upper shell 111 and a lower shell 112, and a receiving cavity 113 is formed between the upper shell 111 and the lower shell 112 for receiving elements such as the elastic lock hook 12, the actuating structure 13, the in-place switch 14, the driving motor 15, and the motor reset key 16. The shell 11 is provided with an opening 114, and the elastic lock hook 12 can be exposed to the outside of the shell 11 through the opening 114 to face each power bank 200. In the present embodiment, the lower shell 112 is provided with a plurality of clamping blocks 1121, and the upper shell 111 extends a plurality of perforated clamping bands 1111 downward to the lower shell 112 at positions corresponding to the plurality of clamping blocks 1121. The upper shell 111 and the lower shell 112 are buckled together through the plurality of clamping blocks 1121 and the plurality of perforated clamping bands 1111, facilitating disassembly and installation of the electronic lock 1. It can be understood that in other feasible embodiments, the upper shell 111 and the lower shell 112 of the electronic lock 1 can also be combined together in other structures, which are not limited herein.
[0060] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 , Figure 5 is a first structure schematic diagram of the elastic lock hook provided in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 6 is a second structure schematic diagram of the elastic lock hook provided in an embodiment of the present application. The elastic lock hook 12 can comprise one locking structure or two locking structures. It can be understood that when the elastic lock hook 12 comprises only one locking structure, the electronic lock 1 can only lock one power bank 200, and when the elastic lock hook 12 comprises only two locking structures, the electronic lock 1 can lock two power banks 200 respectively. Hereinafter, the elastic lock hook 12 is taken as an example for description, and specifically, the elastic lock hook 12 comprises a first locking structure 121, a second locking structure 122, and an elastic member 123 arranged between the first locking structure 121 and the second locking structure 122. The first locking structure 121 and the second locking structure 122 are slidingly installed in the shell 11, and when the actuating structure 13 is operatively rotated to stop actuating the first locking structure 121 and the second locking structure 122, the first locking structure 121 and the second locking structure 122 slide away from each other under the elastic force of the elastic member 123, that is, slide outwardly to the outside of the shell 11. In the present embodiment, the first locking structure 121 and the second locking structure 122 are respectively provided with a first mounting boss 1213 and a second mounting boss 1223, and the first mounting boss 1213 and the second mounting boss 1223 are both arranged toward the elastic member 123. One end of the elastic member 123 is sleeved on the first mounting boss 1213, and the other end is sleeved on the second mounting boss 1223. In the present embodiment, the elastic member 123 is a spring, and in some other feasible embodiments, the elastic member 123 can be a foam or a gasket having elasticity、 Shrapnel, etc.
[0061] The first locking structure 121 and the second locking structure 122 are respectively provided with a first buckle 1211 and a second buckle 1221, both of which are positioned away from the elastic member 123. The first buckle 1211 and the second buckle 1221 can be exposed outside the housing 11 through openings 114 on both sides of the housing 11, facing the corresponding power bank 200, and inserted into the corresponding slot 201 of the power bank 200 to lock the power bank 200. In this embodiment, the power bank 200 is provided with a slot 201 for engaging with the first buckle 1211 or the second buckle 1221. When the first buckle 1211 and the second buckle 1221 are exposed or retracted into the housing 11, they engage with or disengage from the slot 201, thereby locking or unlocking the corresponding power bank 200.
[0062] Please refer to the following: Figure 12 , Figure 12Fig. 1 1 is a structural schematic diagram of the combination of the external object and the electronic lock provided in an embodiment of the present application. The first clasp 121 1 and the second clasp 1221 each include a guide portion 120 and a clasp hook 124. The guide portion 120 is arranged on the side of the first clasp 121 1 and the second clasp 1221 facing the insertion port 101 1, and the clasp hook 124 is arranged at the end of the first clasp 121 1 and the second clasp 1221 away from the elastic member 123. When the power bank 200 is inserted into the shared charging device 1000 through the insertion port 101 1 from the side of the first clasp 121 1 and the second clasp 1221 provided with the guide portion 120, the power bank 200 presses the guide portion 120 of the first clasp 121 1 or the second clasp 1221, so that the first clasp 121 1 or the second clasp 1221 is forced to move in a direction perpendicular to the insertion direction of the power bank 200 and generates a corresponding elastic force; when the power bank 200 is inserted into the position opposite to the clasp slot 201 and the clasp hook 124, the first clasp 121 1 or the second clasp 1221 is separated from the power bank 200 and is inserted into the clasp slot 201 under the elastic force to lock the power bank 200. Understandably, when the first clasp 121 1 or the second clasp 1221 is pressed by the insertion of the power bank 200, the first locking structure 121 or the second locking structure 122 slides to the inside of the shell 1 1, and then the elastic member 123 between the first locking structure 121 and the second locking structure 122 generates an elastic force, which is a force opposite to the sliding direction of the first locking structure 121 and the second locking structure 122. Therefore, when the power bank 200 is inserted into the position opposite to the clasp slot 201 and the clasp hook 124, the first clasp 121 1 or the second clasp 1221 is separated from the power bank 200 and slides to the outside of the shell 1 1 under the elastic force. In this embodiment, the guide portion 120 is designed as an inclined body with gradually increasing size along the insertion direction of the power bank 200, so as to guide the power bank 200 to be inserted along the guide portion 120, and the power bank 200 is more smoothly buckled with the first clasp 121 1 or the second clasp 1221.
[0063] The guide portion 120 is provided with a pick-resistant groove 1201. Specifically, the preset area of the guide portion 120 is provided with the pick-resistant groove 1201, and the preset area refers to the area where the guide portion 120 is connected with the slot opening of the card slot 201 when the hook 124 is completely buckled with the corresponding card slot 201 of the power bank 200. In the present embodiment, there is a certain gap between the power bank 200 and the mounting groove 101, and if an external object 2000 (for example, a sheet, a steel needle, etc.) is inserted from the gap, the external object 2000 will be inserted to abut against the preset area of the guide portion 120. It can be understood that if the preset area of the guide portion 120 is not provided with the pick-resistant groove 1201, the preset area of the guide portion 120 will form a certain acute angle with the external object 2000, so the force exerted by the external object 2000 on the first buckle 1211 or the second buckle 1221 will be decomposed into a first component along the sliding direction of the first locking structure 121 and the second locking structure 122 and a second component along the insertion direction of the power bank 200, the first component causes one of the first locking structure 121 and the second locking structure 122 to slide to the other, so that the first buckle 1211 or the second buckle 1221 is retracted in the shell 11 to separate from the card slot 201 of the power bank 200, thereby realizing the pick-locking by the external object 2000. However, the present application is provided with the pick-resistant groove 1201 in the preset area of the guide portion 120, so that the external object 2000 abuts against the pick-resistant groove 1201, and the pick-resistant groove 1201 is arranged to limit the external object 2000 to only exert force on the first buckle 1211 or the second buckle 1221 in the direction of the insertion of the power bank 200, and not to exert force on the first buckle 1211 or the second buckle 1221 in the sliding direction of the first locking structure 121 and the second locking structure 122, thereby avoiding that the first buckle 1211 or the second buckle 1221 is retracted in the shell 11 to separate from the card slot 201 of the power bank 200 by the external object 2000, and thereby preventing the electronic lock 1 from being illegally picked open, and improving the reliability of the electronic lock 1.
[0064] Further, the anti-picking groove 1201 is located between the power bank 200 and the guide portion 120 and faces the insertion port 1011, so that when the external object 2000 is inserted between the power bank 200 and the first buckle 1211 or the second buckle 1221, the external object 2000 is limited by the anti-picking groove 1201 to only apply force to the first buckle 1211 or the second buckle 1221 in the direction of insertion of the power bank 200. At the same time, the anti-picking groove 1201 is designed to extend vertically from one end of the guide portion 120 to the other end, that is, the anti-picking groove 1201 is long enough to make the external object 2000, whether small like a steel needle or large like a sheet, only act on the anti-picking groove 1201 and not on other parts of the guide portion 120. In this embodiment, the anti-picking groove 1201 has a circular arc cross section. The circular arc design of the anti-picking groove 1201 makes the force exerted by the external object 2000 on the anti-picking groove 1201 in the sliding direction of the first locking structure 121 and the second locking structure 122 on the first buckle 1211 or the second buckle 1221 be canceled, and only the force in the direction of insertion of the power bank 200 be left. It can be understood that in some feasible embodiments, the anti-picking groove 1201 can also be provided as a groove with other cross-sectional shapes that meet the needs of the present application.
[0065] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 , Figure 3 is a third internal structure schematic diagram of an electronic lock provided by an embodiment of the present application. The first locking structure 121 and the second locking structure 122 are each provided with a sliding rod 1215, 1225. Specifically, the first locking structure 121 and the second locking structure 122 slide towards or away from each other along the same straight line, and the first locking structure 121 and the second locking structure 122 are respectively provided with a first sliding rod 1215 and a second sliding rod 1225 along the sliding direction. Correspondingly, the shell 11 is provided with a sliding groove 115 embedded with the first sliding rod 1215 and the second sliding rod 1225 along the sliding direction of the first locking structure 121 and the second locking structure 122, for sliding of the first locking structure 121 and the second locking structure 122 in the shell 11.
[0066] Further, the first slide rods 1215 are located on opposite sides of the first locking structure 121 in the vertical direction, and the second slide rods 1225 are located on opposite sides of the second locking structure 122 in the vertical direction. Correspondingly, the slide grooves 115 are located on opposite sides of the housing 11 in the vertical direction. Understandably, in the present embodiment, the first locking structure 121 is provided with the first slide rods 1215 on the side facing the upper housing 111 and on the side facing the lower housing 112, the second locking structure 122 is provided with the second slide rods 1225 on the side facing the upper housing 111 and on the side facing the lower housing 112, and correspondingly, the upper housing 111 and the lower housing 112 are provided with the slide grooves 115. The double-sided slide rods 1215, 1225 and the double-sided slide grooves 115 can provide more stable guiding effect, reducing the deviation or shaking of the first locking structure 121 and the second locking structure 122 during sliding.
[0067] The first locking structure 121 and the second locking structure 122 are each provided with a slide post 1216, 1226, which is used to realize external unlocking and make the first locking structure 121 and the second locking structure 122 slide more smoothly in the housing 11. Specifically, the first locking structure 121 includes a first slide post 1216 extending from the first slide rod 1215 to the slide groove 115, and the second locking structure 122 includes a second slide post 1226 extending from the second slide rod 1225 to the slide groove 115. Correspondingly, the slide groove 115 is provided with a slide hole 116 at a corresponding position of the first slide post 1216 and the second slide post 1226, so that the first slide post 1216 and the second slide post 1226 are exposed to the housing 11 through the slide hole 116. Understandably, the orientation of the slide hole 116 is perpendicular to the orientation of the opening hole 114, and the length of the slide hole 116 is greater than the sliding length of the first locking structure 121 and the second locking structure 122, so that the first slide post 1216 and the second slide post 1226 can be operatively moved along the slide hole 116 under the action of an external force to drive one of the first locking structure 121 and the second locking structure 122 to slide to the other, thereby causing the first buckle 1211 or the second buckle 1221 to retract in the housing 11. Among them, the external force refers to the force exerted by an external object (for example, a person's finger, a machine, etc.) on the slide post 1216, 1226, so that in some specific cases (for example, when the electronic lock 1 fails), the power bank 200 can be directly unlocked through the slide post 1216, 1226.
[0068] The first locking structure 121 and the second locking structure 122 are respectively provided with a first to-position part 1214 and a second to-position part 1224. The first to-position part 1214 and the second to-position part 1224 are both arranged towards the to-position switch 14. In the embodiment, the to-position switch 14 includes a first to-position switch 141 and a second to-position switch 142, the first to-position switch 141 corresponds to the first locking structure 121, and the second to-position switch 142 corresponds to the second locking structure 122, and is respectively used for detecting whether the first locking structure 121 and the second locking structure 122 are in the homing position. Taking the first locking structure 121 as an example, when the first locking structure 121 slides to the homing position, the first to-position part 1214 touches the first to-position switch 141 to trigger the first to-position switch 141, so as to judge that the power bank 200 corresponding to the first locking structure 121 has been correctly homed.
[0069] Please refer to Figure 7 , Figure 7 is a structural schematic view of the dialing structure 13 and the driving motor 15 provided in an embodiment of the present application. The dialing structure 13 includes a first dialing body 131 and a second dialing body 132. Correspondingly, the first locking structure 121 and the second locking structure 122 are respectively provided with a first dialing groove 1212 and a second dialing groove 1222. The first dialing body 131 and the second dialing body 132 are respectively operable to rotate and abut against the first dialing groove 1212 and the second dialing groove 1222, so as to dial the first locking structure 121 or the second locking structure 122, to make one of the first locking structure 121 or the second locking structure 122 slide to the other, and then make the first buckle 1211 or the second buckle 1221 retract in the shell 11. In the embodiment, the first locking structure 121 is provided with two first dialing grooves 1212, and the second locking structure 122 is provided with two second dialing grooves 1222. The two first dialing grooves 1212 and the two second dialing grooves 1222 are designed to be staggered with each other, so that when the first locking structure 121 and the second locking structure 122 slide towards each other, the sliding of one of them will not be affected by the position of the other. Understandably, the first dialing body 131 is consistent in height with one of the first dialing grooves 1212, and the second dialing body 132 is consistent in height with one of the second dialing grooves 1222. The first dialing body 131 and the second dialing body 132 are different in height in the axial direction of the dialing structure 13, and there is a certain gap in the axial direction. In the embodiment, the first dialing body 131 and the second dialing body 132 are designed to be chamfered, so that the movement of the first dialing body 131 and the second dialing body 132 in the first dialing groove 1212 and the second dialing groove 1222 is more smooth. The smooth dialing action also means that the wear caused by friction is reduced, and the service life of the electronic lock 1 is prolonged.
[0070] Please refer to Figures 8-9 , Figure 8is a positive transmission schematic view of the dialing structure 13 provided by an embodiment of the present application. Figure 9 is a reverse transmission schematic view of the dialing structure 13 provided by an embodiment of the present application. The driving motor 15 is electrically connected with the dialing structure 13, and is used to drive the dialing structure 13 to rotate in a positive direction or a reverse direction, so that the first dialing body 131 and the second dialing body 132 are operatively rotated to dial the first locking structure 121 or the second locking structure 122. In the embodiment, when the driving motor 15 drives the dialing structure 13 to rotate in the positive direction, the first dialing body 131 is rotated to dial the first locking structure 121, so that the first buckle 1211 is separated from the clamping groove 201 of the power bank 200, and then the unlocking of the power bank 200 in one of the installation grooves 101 is realized. Correspondingly, when the driving motor 15 drives the dialing structure 13 to rotate in the reverse direction, the second dialing body 132 is rotated to dial the second locking structure 122, so that the second buckle 1221 is separated from the clamping groove 201 of the power bank 200, and then the unlocking of the power bank 200 in the other of the installation grooves 101 is realized. It can be understood that, since the driving motor 15 can only rotate in one of the positive direction and the reverse direction, the electronic lock 1 can only unlock the power bank 200 in one of the installation grooves 101 at the same time.
[0071] The specific process of the electronic lock 1 locking and unlocking the corresponding power bank 200 will be further introduced below by taking the example of the power bank 200 being inserted into the mounting groove 101 corresponding to the first locking structure 121. First, when the power bank 200 is not inserted into the mounting groove 101, the first clasp 1211 is in the initial state of being exposed to the shell 11. Second, in the process of the power bank 200 being inserted into the mounting groove 101, the power bank 200 extrudes the guide portion 120, so that the first locking structure 121 is forced to slide into the shell 11, and the elastic member 123 generates a corresponding elastic force on the first locking structure 121, and when the power bank 200 is inserted into the position opposite to the clasp 124, the first clasp 1211 loses the extrusion force of the power bank 200 and moves outwardly to the shell 11 under the elastic force of the elastic member 123, so as to be buckled with the clasp groove 201 of the power bank 200, thereby realizing the locking of the corresponding power bank 200. Third, when the user rents the power bank 200 through a legal way (such as a code scanning payment method, which is not limited here), the cabinet 100 of the shared charging device 1000 sends an unlocking instruction to the electronic lock 1, and the electronic lock 1 responds to the unlocking instruction and controls the toggle structure 13 to operatively toggle the first locking structure 121, so that the first locking structure 121 slides to the second locking structure 122, and then the first clasp 1211 is retracted into the shell 11, thereby realizing the unlocking of the corresponding power bank 200. Finally, when the corresponding power bank 200 is unlocked and the user pulls out the power bank 200, the electronic lock 1 controls the toggle structure 13 to stop toggling the first locking structure 121, and at this time the first locking structure 121 slides away from the second locking structure 122 under the elastic force of the elastic member 123, and then the first clasp 1211 returns to the initial state of being exposed to the shell 11.
[0072] In the above embodiment, the elastic clasp is operatively rotated by the toggle structure to slide into the shell, thereby unlocking the corresponding power bank, or the elastic clasp slides out of the shell under the action of the elastic member, thereby locking the corresponding power bank. In addition, the anti-prying groove is arranged on the guide portion of the elastic clasp, so that when an external object is inserted between the power bank and the elastic clasp, the external object abuts against the anti-prying groove, and the external object is limited by the anti-prying groove to only apply force to the elastic clasp in the direction of inserting the power bank, thereby avoiding the elastic clasp being retracted into the shell to separate from the clasp groove of the corresponding power bank by the external object, and improving the reliability of the electronic lock.
[0073] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present application, but do not limit the patent range of the present application, although the present application is described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, for those skilled in the art, the technical solutions recorded in the foregoing embodiments can still be modified, or some technical features can be replaced equivalently. Any equivalent structure using the content of the present application specification and drawings, directly or indirectly used in other related technical fields, are also within the patent protection range of the present application.
