Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to electronic products, specifically a mechanism with power-on and power-off reminder functions. Background Technology
[0002] Existing electronic products require a corresponding switch to be turned on after being connected to power to complete the power-on process. However, many installers, due to unfamiliarity or forgetfulness, may only complete the circuit connection during installation but forget to turn on the electronic product's switch. As a result, the electronic product is installed but does not perform its corresponding function. This is especially true for some electronic products used for monitoring (such as smoke detectors), which will not be able to perform their normal monitoring function if the switch is not turned on.
[0003] Furthermore, existing electronic products cannot be promptly detected by remote control terminals when they are disassembled or experience power outages, resulting in the device remaining undetected for a period of time. Therefore, a mechanism with power-on and power-off reminder functions is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a mechanism with power-on and power-off reminder functions to solve the above problems.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a mechanism with power-on and power-off reminder functions, comprising a housing and a bottom shell mounted on the housing; characterized in that it further includes a power-on mechanism that automatically turns on the switch after the bottom shell and the housing are closed to achieve automatic power-on, and a reminder structure that issues a power-off reminder after the bottom shell and the housing are separated; the reminder structure includes a trigger element disposed on the bottom shell, passing through the housing and contacting a contact on a circuit board inside the housing, and a through hole disposed on the housing for the trigger element to pass through; the power-on mechanism includes a drive element movably mounted on the housing and connected to a switch on the circuit board, and a push element disposed on the bottom shell for automatically turning on the switch to power on by pushing the drive element; the drive element is provided with a conical guide groove, and the push element is provided with a conical push end.
[0006] Further preferably, it also includes a limiting guide groove disposed on the housing to limit and guide the position of the drive component, and a limiting clamping platform for limiting and installing the drive component in the limiting guide groove.
[0007] Further preferably, it also includes a buckle disposed on the drive component and a corresponding latching block disposed on the housing.
[0008] A further preferred embodiment includes a locking buckle disposed on the bottom shell and a locking block that is elastically and movably mounted on the housing. The locking block has a slot that matches the locking buckle, and a spring is also installed between the locking block and the housing.
[0009] A further preferred embodiment includes an elastic sleeve fitted onto the locking buckle to prevent the bottom shell and housing from being misinstalled, which would cause the pusher to drive the drive component to automatically power on.
[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: by setting the power-on mechanism, the switch is automatically turned on after the bottom shell and the outer shell are installed to realize automatic power-on, avoiding the electronic product not being turned on due to forgetting after the outer shell and the bottom shell are installed, thus preventing it from not working properly;
[0011] By setting up the prompt structure, after the bottom shell and the outer shell are installed, the trigger on the bottom shell presses against the contacts on the circuit board. When the bottom shell and the outer shell are disassembled, the trigger disconnects from the contacts on the circuit board. When the contacts on the circuit board are disconnected, a power failure reminder can be issued to promptly indicate that the electronic product cannot function properly when the power is off.
[0012] By fitting an elastic sleeve onto the locking buckle, the locking buckle is prevented from being inserted into the slot during the transportation or storage of electronic products, thus preventing the bottom shell from automatically powering on the electronic product after the bottom shell and the outer shell are installed, which could cause the electronic product to start spontaneously during transportation or storage.

[0019] The following description, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, further illustrates the mechanism of this utility model that has power-on and power-off reminder functions.
[0020] It should be noted that all directional indicators such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc. in the embodiments of this utility model are only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of the components in a specific posture as shown in the attached figure. If the specific posture changes, the directional indicator will also change accordingly.
[0021] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connection," "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly; for example, "fixing" can mean a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; it can mean a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can mean a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; it can mean the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components, unless otherwise explicitly limited. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.
[0022] See Figures 1-5 As shown, a mechanism with power-on and power-off reminder functions includes a housing 1 and a bottom shell 2 mounted on the housing 1; characterized in that it further includes a power-on mechanism that automatically turns on the switch after the bottom shell 2 and the housing 1 are closed to achieve automatic power-on, and a reminder structure that issues a power-off reminder after the bottom shell 2 and the housing 1 are separated; the reminder structure includes a trigger 3 disposed on the bottom shell 2, passing through the housing 1 and contacting a contact on a circuit board inside the housing 1, and a through hole 31 disposed on the housing 1 through which the trigger 3 can pass; the power-on mechanism includes a drive 4 movably mounted on the housing 1 and connected to a switch on the circuit board, and a pusher 5 disposed on the bottom shell 2 for automatically turning on the switch to power on by pushing the drive 4; the drive 4 is provided with a tapered guide groove 41, and the pusher 5 is provided with a tapered push end 51.
[0023] By setting the power-on mechanism, the switch is automatically turned on after the bottom shell 2 and the housing 1 are installed to achieve automatic power-on, so as to avoid the electronic product not being turned on due to forgetting after the housing 1 and bottom shell 2 are installed, thus preventing it from not working properly.
[0024] By setting up the prompt structure, after the bottom shell 2 and the housing 1 are installed, the trigger 3 on the bottom shell 2 presses against the contacts on the circuit board. When the bottom shell 2 and the housing 1 are disassembled, the trigger 3 disconnects from the contacts on the circuit board, and the disconnection of the contacts on the circuit board will trigger a power outage reminder.
[0025] In one embodiment, the device further includes a limiting guide groove 11 disposed on the housing 1 to limit and guide the position of the drive member 4, and a limiting clamping platform 12 for limiting and installing the drive member 4 in the limiting guide groove 11; the limiting guide groove 11 limits the position of the drive member 4 and guides its movement.
[0026] In one embodiment, it also includes a buckle 42 disposed on the drive member 4 and a locking block 13 disposed on the housing 1 corresponding to the buckle 42;
[0027] By setting up the latch 42 and the locking block 13, the latch 42 locks the locking block 13 after the drive component 4 moves, thus limiting the position of the drive component 4 after it moves.
[0028] In one embodiment, the device further includes a locking buckle 21 disposed on the bottom shell 2 and a locking block 22 elastically mounted on the housing 1. The locking block 22 is provided with a slot 23 adapted to the locking buckle 21, and a spring 24 is also installed between the locking block 22 and the housing 1. The locking block 22 and the locking buckle 21 are used to fix the housing 1 and the bottom shell 2 in place.
[0029] In one embodiment, an elastic sleeve is also included, which is fitted onto the locking buckle 21 to prevent the bottom shell 2 and the housing 1 from being misinstalled, thus causing the pusher 5 to drive the drive component 4 to automatically power on. The elastic sleeve can be any of silicone sleeve or rubber sleeve. By using the elastic sleeve and fitting it onto the locking buckle 21, the locking buckle 21 is prevented from being inserted into the slot 23 during the transportation or storage of the electronic product, thus preventing the bottom shell 2 and the housing 1 from being installed. This prevents the electronic product from being automatically powered on after the bottom shell 2 and the housing 1 are installed, thus preventing the electronic product from starting spontaneously during transportation or storage. This is especially important for some monitoring electronic products, such as smoke detectors, where an accidental alarm may occur if the product is powered on during transportation.
[0030] When this utility model is in use: when the bottom shell 2 and the housing 1 are installed, the locking buckle 21 on the bottom shell 2 is inserted into the slot of the locking block 22, and at the same time, the pushing end 51 on the bottom shell 2 is inserted into the guide groove 41 on the driving member 4. The pushing end 51, which is set in a conical shape, contacts the guide groove 41 and forms a thrust on the driving member 4 along the inclined surface, pushing the driving member 4 to move in the limiting guide groove 11. During the movement, the driving member 4 drives the switch to open the switch through the connector set on the driving member 4 for connecting the electronic product switch, thereby realizing automatic power-on. At the same time as the bottom shell 2 and the housing 1 are connected, the trigger rod is driven to pass through the through hole 31 and contact the contact point on the circuit board and apply a squeezing force to it.
[0031] When the bottom shell 2 and the housing 1 are separated, the trigger rod is disconnected from the contacts on the circuit board. After the contacts are disconnected, the electronic product is disconnected from the mains power. At this time, it can only be powered by the battery lamp stored in the electronic product. The electronic product then sends a power outage reminder to the terminal controlling the electronic product through the corresponding components or through network communication.
[0032] The scope of protection of this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments and their variations. Conventional modifications and substitutions made by those skilled in the art based on the content of these embodiments are all within the scope of protection of this utility model.
