Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of car key technology, and in particular to a Beidou GPS car key with mechanical key storage function. Background Technology

[0002] In addition to functions like turning the car engine on and off, such as traditional car keys, Beidou GPS car keys can also use Beidou and GPS satellite positioning technology to determine the vehicle's location. Satellites transmit signals to the ground, and the positioning module in the car key receives signals from multiple satellites, using the triangulation principle to calculate the location of the car key or the vehicle.

[0003] The mechanical key portion of a traditional car key can be folded and stored inside the key body. There is a hinge connecting the key body and the mechanical key. When the mechanical key is needed, it can be flipped out of the key body. When not in use, the mechanical key is folded behind the smart key portion with buttons, and the whole thing looks like an ordinary electronic smart key.

[0004] The folding mechanical key storage design is prone to wear and loosening of its connecting parts, such as the hinge, after long-term and frequent use. This can lead to uneven folding and even affect the stability of the mechanical key, making it unable to maintain a good fixed state inside the key body, resulting in frequent key repairs. Utility Model Content

[0005] To overcome the above shortcomings, this utility model provides a Beidou GPS car key with mechanical key storage function, aiming to improve the problem in the prior art where the connecting parts such as the pivot are prone to wear and loosening after long-term and frequent use, resulting in the need for frequent key repairs.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a Beidou GPS car key with mechanical key storage function, comprising a smart key, wherein a mechanical key is disposed inside the smart key, a pressing post is slidably connected to the top inner side of the smart key, a spring is fixedly connected to the top inner side of the smart key, a slide rail is fixedly connected to the bottom right end of the smart key, a slider is slidably connected to the top of the slide rail, a pressing block is fixedly connected to the top of the slider, a locking strip is fixedly connected to the left side of the pressing block, a pressing rod is fixedly connected to the right side of the pressing block, and a positioning mechanism is disposed on the front inner side of the smart key, the positioning mechanism being used to position the mechanical key.

[0007] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0008] The positioning mechanism includes a second spring. The front side of the second spring is fixedly connected to the front side of the inside of the smart key. A connecting plate is fixedly connected to the rear side of the second spring. A limit post is fixedly connected to the front side of the connecting plate. A positioning pin is fixedly connected to the rear side of the connecting plate. A positioning hole is opened on the front side of the mechanical key.

[0009] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0010] A lamp holder is fixedly connected to the top left side of the smart key, and an indicator light is fixedly connected to the top of the lamp holder.

[0011] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0012] The mechanical key has a groove on its top rear side, and multiple anti-slip tubes are fixedly connected to the top rear side of the mechanical key.

[0013] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0014] A first extrusion plate is fixedly connected to the top of the extrusion column, and a second extrusion plate is fixedly connected to the right side of the extrusion rod.

[0015] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0016] The smart key has multiple slots on its top front side, and buttons are fixedly connected inside the multiple slots.

[0017] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0018] A circular plate is fixedly connected to the rear right end of the smart key, and a buckle is fixedly connected to the rear side of the circular plate.

[0019] As a further description of the above technical solution:

[0020] The bottom of the smart key is fixedly connected to multiple friction pads, all of which have a smooth design.

[0021] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0022] 1. In this utility model, when the mechanical key needs to be removed for emergency use, press the inner top squeezing column. When the spring is compressed, the force is transmitted to the bottom. The slider on the slide rail is driven by the force to move the squeezing block to the right, and the locking strip moves out, unlocking the mechanical key so that it can be pulled out for emergency use. Press the squeezing rod on the right side of the squeezing block, and the squeezing block slides to the left. The locking strip accurately re-inserts the mechanical key, allowing the mechanical key to be inserted. This achieves reliable storage of the mechanical key and a long service life.

[0023] 2. In this utility model, the mechanical key is inserted back in, and its front end is aligned with the inside of the smart key. The positioning hole of the mechanical key is close to the positioning pin on the inner connecting plate of the smart key. Because the spring connects the two, the positioning pin is inserted into the positioning hole, pushing the connecting plate to squeeze the spring. The limiting post moves closer to the inner front wall of the smart key. When the limiting post touches the front wall, the squeezing rod is pressed, pushing the squeezing block to move the clip to the left. The clip is embedded in the mechanical key, completing the storage, thus realizing automatic positioning when the mechanical key is inserted. Attached Figure Description

[0031] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0032] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 4 This utility model provides an embodiment of a Beidou GPS car key with mechanical key storage function, including a smart key 1 with a Beidou positioning chip inside, a mechanical key 3 inside the smart key 1, a pressing column 4 slidably connected to the top inner side of the smart key 1, a spring 5 fixedly connected to the top inner side of the smart key 1, a slide rail 6 fixedly connected to the bottom right end of the smart key 1, a slider 7 slidably connected to the top of the slide rail 6, a pressing block 8 fixedly connected to the top of the slider 7, and a locking strip 9 fixedly connected to the left side of the pressing block 8. Pressing the pressing column 4 causes the slider 7 of the pressing block 8 on the slide rail 6 to move to the right, allowing the locking strip 9 to move out from the left side of the mechanical key 3 and pull out the mechanical key 3. A pressing rod 10 is fixedly connected to the right side of the pressing block 8. When it is necessary to insert the mechanical key 3, pressing the pressing rod 10 causes the pressing block 8 to slide to the left on the slide rail 6, allowing the locking strip 9 to be inserted into the mechanical key 3 and achieve engagement. A positioning mechanism 2 is provided on the front inner side of the smart key 1 for positioning the mechanical key 3.

[0033] Specifically, the smart key 1 is equipped with a Beidou positioning chip. The mechanical key 3 inside the smart key 1 provides protection for emergency needs. On the inner top of the smart key 1, the squeezing post 4 is slidably connected to it. The spring 5 is fixed on the inner top of the smart key 1. The slide rail 6 is fixed on the bottom right end of the smart key 1. The slider 7 can slide smoothly on it, thereby driving the squeezing block 8 fixed on the top to move. The locking strip 9 extends from the left side of the squeezing block 8. When the squeezing post 4 is pressed, the slider 7 is driven to slide the squeezing block 8 along the slide rail 6 to the right. The locking strip 9 then moves out from the left side of the mechanical key 3, and the mechanical key 3 can be pulled out. When it is necessary to reinsert the mechanical key 3, the squeezing rod 10 is pressed. The squeezing block 8 will slide to the left on the slide rail 6. The locking strip 9 is inserted into the mechanical key 3 to achieve a tight lock and ensure that the mechanical key 3 is stored securely.

[0034] Reference Figure 5 The positioning mechanism 2 includes a second spring 201. The front side of the second spring 201 is fixedly connected to the front side of the inside of the smart key 1. The rear side of the second spring 201 is fixedly connected to a connecting plate 202. The front side of the connecting plate 202 is fixedly connected to a limiting post 203. The rear side of the connecting plate 202 is fixedly connected to a positioning pin 204. The front side of the mechanical key 3 has a positioning hole 205. When the mechanical key 3 is inserted, the positioning pin 204 can be inserted into the positioning hole 205, causing the connecting plate 202 to squeeze the second spring 201. When the limiting post 203 reaches the front side of the inside of the smart key 1, it pushes the squeezing rod 10 to engage.

[0035] Specifically, the front end of spring 201 is fixed inside the front side of smart key 1, and the rear end is connected to connecting plate 202. Connecting plate 202 extends forward to extend limiting post 203 and extends backward to extend positioning pin 204. When mechanical key 3 is inserted into smart key 1, positioning pin 204 at the rear end is precisely aligned with positioning hole 205 on the front side of mechanical key 3. This process causes connecting plate 202 to press spring 201. When limiting post 203 touches the front side inside smart key 1, it indicates that the pressing rod 10 should be pushed to make the locking strip 9 and mechanical key 3 tightly engage.

[0036] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 A lamp holder 11 is fixedly connected to the top left side of the smart key 1, and an indicator light 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the lamp holder 11. When the smart key 1 is opened, the light will illuminate to remind you. A groove 13 is provided on the top rear side of the mechanical key 3, and multiple anti-slip tubes 14 are fixedly connected to the top rear side of the mechanical key 3 to increase the friction when taking it out. A first extrusion plate 15 is fixedly connected to the top of the extrusion column 4, and a second extrusion plate 16 is fixedly connected to the right side of the extrusion rod 10 to increase the extrusion area.

[0037] Specifically, a light holder 11 is fixed on the top left side of the smart key 1. The indicator light 12 on the light holder 11 lights up the moment the smart key 1 is turned on, which conspicuously reminds the user. The mechanical key 3 has a groove 13 on the top rear side, which makes it easy for the fingers to grip. Combined with multiple anti-slip tubes 14 that are fixedly connected, the friction between the hand and the key is increased when taking it out, ensuring that it can be held firmly. The first pressing plate 15 on the top of the pressing column 4 and the second pressing plate 16 on the right side of the pressing rod 10 increase the pressing area and make the operation more convenient.

[0038] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The smart key 1 has multiple slots 17 on its top front side, and buttons 18 are fixedly connected inside the multiple slots 17 for controlling the smart key 1. A round plate 19 is fixedly connected to the rear right end of the smart key 1, and a buckle 20 is fixedly connected to the rear side of the round plate 19 for hanging the smart key 1. Multiple friction pads 21 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the smart key 1. The multiple friction pads 21 are all rounded to increase friction when picked up.

[0039] Specifically, buttons 18 are fixed in the multiple slots 17 on the front of the top of the smart key 1. The multiple buttons 18 are used to control various functions of the smart key 1, such as unlocking and locking the car. The round plate 19 and the buckle 20 on the right rear end of the smart key 1 provide convenience for hanging the key, whether it is hung on a hook or stored in the car. The multiple friction pads 21 at the bottom have a smooth design, which can effectively increase friction when picking up and prevent slipping.

[0040] Working principle: When the mechanical key 3 needs to be retrieved for emergency use, the user presses the squeezing post 4 located at the top inner side of the smart key 1. Since the squeezing post 4 is slidably connected to the smart key 1, and a spring 5 is fixed at the top inner side, the pressing action compresses the spring 5. The resulting force is transmitted to the bottom inner side of the smart key 1. At the right end of the bottom inner side, the slider 7 on the fixed slide rail 6 receives this force, causing the top-fixed squeezing block 8 to slide to the right along the slide rail 6. The retaining strip 9 extending from the left side of the squeezing block 8 smoothly removes the mechanical key 3 as the squeezing block 8 moves. The left side of 3 is moved out, releasing the lock on the mechanical key 3. The user can then easily pull the mechanical key 3 out of the smart key 1. When the emergency situation is over and the mechanical key 3 needs to be put back in, press the squeezing rod 10 located on the right side of the squeezing block 8 to push the squeezing block 8 to the left, and then slide it to the left on the slide rail 6. The locking strip 9 moves with the squeezing block 8 and is precisely inserted into the mechanical key 3 to achieve a tight lock and firmly fix the mechanical key 3 in the smart key 1, ensuring that it is stored securely. This achieves convenient access and reliable storage of the mechanical key 3.

[0041] Furthermore, when the mechanical key 3 needs to be inserted back into the smart key 1, the front end of the mechanical key 3 is inserted into the smart key 1. The positioning hole 205 on the front side of the mechanical key 3 gradually approaches the positioning pin 204 protruding backward from the connecting plate 202 inside the smart key 1. Since the front end of the second spring 201 is fixed inside the front side of the smart key 1 and the rear end is connected to the connecting plate 202, as the mechanical key 3 is continuously inserted, the positioning pin 204 is precisely inserted into the positioning hole 205, which will generate a backward pushing force on the connecting plate 202. This causes the connecting plate 202 to squeeze the second spring 201, and the second spring 201 contracts under the force. The forward-extending limiting post 203 also moves towards the front of the inside of the smart key 1 as the connecting plate 202 moves backward. When the limiting post 203 finally touches the front of the inside of the smart key 1, it indicates that the mechanical key 3 has been inserted to the appropriate depth. At this time, the user should press the squeezing rod 10. After the squeezing rod 10 is subjected to force, it pushes the squeezing block 8. The squeezing block 8 drives the left-side locking strip 9 to move to the left, so that the locking strip 9 is inserted into the corresponding position of the mechanical key 3 and tightly engages with the mechanical key 3, storing the mechanical key 3 inside the smart key 1 to ensure normal use and carrying in the future. This achieves automatic positioning when the mechanical key 3 is inserted.

[0042] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
