[0002] Electromagnetic locks are widely used in industries such as express delivery lockers, safes, smart access control, smart homes, and smart manufacturing. Electromagnetic locks utilize the principle that electric current generates magnetism. When current passes through the coil of the electromagnetic lock, it generates a strong attractive force, tightly holding the latch and causing it to rotate. This engages or disengages the component to be locked, achieving the locking or unlocking effect. To enhance security, electromagnetic locks typically include an emergency unlocking lever, which is mechanically connected to the latch. In the event of a malfunction or power outage, manipulating the emergency unlocking lever rotates the latch, disengaging the component and unlocking the lock.

[0003] However, for smaller electromagnetic locks, the emergency unlocking lever is usually small and there is little space around it, making it inconvenient for maintenance personnel to operate. Especially when the electromagnetic lock is installed at a relatively high position, maintenance personnel may even have difficulty touching the emergency unlocking lever, making it inconvenient to open the electromagnetic lock.

[0027] Electromagnetic locks are widely used in industries such as express delivery lockers, safes, smart access control, smart homes, and smart manufacturing. Electromagnetic locks utilize the principle that electric current generates magnetism. When current passes through the coil of the electromagnetic lock, it generates a strong attractive force, tightly holding the latch and causing it to rotate. This engages or disengages the component to be locked, achieving the locking or unlocking effect. To enhance security, electromagnetic locks typically include an emergency unlocking lever, which is mechanically connected to the latch. In the event of a malfunction or power outage, manipulating the emergency unlocking lever rotates the latch, disengaging the component and unlocking the lock.

[0028] However, for smaller electromagnetic locks, the emergency unlocking lever is usually small and there is little space around it, making it inconvenient for maintenance personnel to operate. Especially when the electromagnetic lock is installed at a relatively high position, maintenance personnel may even have difficulty touching the emergency unlocking lever, making it inconvenient to open the electromagnetic lock.

[0029] Based on this, please refer to Figures 2 to 4This application provides a lever structure 100 for actuating the emergency unlocking lever 210 of an electromagnetic lock 200. The lever structure 100 includes a housing 10 and a lever 20. The housing 10 has a cavity 11 for mounting the electromagnetic lock 200. The lever 20 includes an abutment portion 21 located within the cavity 11 and a grip portion 22 located outside the housing 10. The lever 20 is movably connected to the housing 10 along a preset direction a. As the lever 20 moves upward along the preset direction a, the abutment portion 21 abuts against and pushes the emergency unlocking lever 210 upward. It is understood that the housing 10 serves to mount the electromagnetic lock 200 and the lever 20. By using the lever 20 to push the emergency unlocking lever 210, the problem of inconvenience for maintenance personnel to actuate the emergency unlocking lever 210 due to its small size and limited surrounding space in related structures is solved. Furthermore, since the lever 20 has a grip portion 22 located outside the housing 10, the grip portion 22 makes it convenient for maintenance personnel to grip and push the lever 20.

[0030] Optionally, in one embodiment, the lever 20 includes a rod body 23, and the housing 10 has a first through hole 12. One end of the rod body 23 extends out of the housing 10 through the first through hole 12 and forms a gripping part 22. The abutting part 21 is configured as a paddle 24 connected to the rod body 23, and along a preset direction a, the upper end face of the paddle 24 is used to abut against the emergency unlocking lever 210. It can be understood that in this embodiment, the paddle 24 is used to form the abutting part 21. The paddle 24 moves upward along the preset direction a following the lever 20, and the paddle 24 applies an upward force along the preset direction to the emergency unlocking lever 210 through its upper end face, thereby pushing the emergency unlocking lever 210.

[0031] Of course, this is not the only option. In other embodiments, one end of the rod 23 may be located inside the cavity 11 and form an abutment portion 21, while the other end of the rod 23 may extend out of the housing 10 through the first through hole 12 and form a grip portion 22.

[0032] Furthermore, along the predetermined direction a, the lower end face of the lever 24 is used to engage with the circumferential edge stop of the first through hole 12. It can be understood that the lower end face of the lever 24 can prevent the lever 20 from dislodging from the cavity 11 through the first through hole 12.

[0033] Specifically, in actual use, the lever structure 100 is installed vertically. It is configured vertically along the preset direction a. In the normal state, the weight of the lever 24 and the lever body 23 causes the lower end face of the lever 24 to press against the circumferential edge of the first through hole 12, so as to prevent the lever 20 from coming out of the cavity 11 through the first through hole 12.

[0034] For example, in one embodiment, the paddle 24 is T-shaped, with the head of the T-shaped paddle 24 connected to the rod body 23 and the tail of the T-shaped paddle 24 being perpendicular to the rod body 23.

[0035] Furthermore, the housing 10 also has a second through hole 13, which is positioned opposite to the first through hole 12 along a preset direction a. The other end of the rod 23 extends out of the housing 10 through the second through hole 13. It can be understood that since one end of the rod 23 extends out of the housing 10 through the first through hole 12, and the other end extends out of the housing 10 through the second through hole 13, the first through hole 12 and the second through hole 13 can respectively limit the movement of the rod 23 along its circumference. Furthermore, since the second through hole 13 and the first through hole 12 are positioned opposite to each other along the preset direction a, the placement of the second through hole 13 and the first through hole 12 helps ensure that the rod 23 moves along the preset direction a, thereby preventing deviation of the rod 23's movement trajectory.

[0036] The paddle 24 is detachably connected to the rod 23, and one side of the housing 10 has an opening 14 communicating with the cavity 11; wherein the paddle 24 can enter the cavity 11 through the opening 14 and connect to the rod 23. It is understood that the opening 14 facilitates the insertion of the paddle 24 into the cavity 11. Specifically, when assembling the housing 10 and the lever 20, one end of the rod 23 can be passed through the second through hole 13 from bottom to top, and then the paddle 24 can be inserted into the cavity 11 through the opening 14 and connected to the rod 23 located inside the cavity 11. The paddle 24 can be connected to the rod 23 by screws.

[0037] like Figure 4 As shown, the rod 23 is also provided with a limiting block 231, which is located below the housing 10 and spaced apart from the housing 10 along a preset direction a; as the rod 23 pushes the emergency unlocking rod 210 a preset distance along the preset direction a, the limiting block 231 can stop at the housing 10. It can be understood that the limiting block 231 is used to limit the stroke of the rod 23 moving upward along the preset direction, that is, to prevent the rod 23 from moving upward excessively and thus damaging the emergency unlocking rod 210.

[0038] In one embodiment, the limiting block 231 and the rod 23 are configured as an integral structure. Optionally, the limiting block 231 may be positioned as a flange structure or a protrusion connected to the rod 23. In other embodiments, the limiting block 231 and the rod 23 may be separately configured and fixedly connected together.

[0039] The lever structure 100 also includes a mounting bracket 30. One side of the housing 10 has an opening 14 communicating with the cavity 11. The opening 14 has a flange 141 extending outwards from the cavity 11. The housing 10 is fastened to the mounting bracket 30, and the flange 141 is connected to the mounting bracket 30. It is understood that the fastening of the housing 10 and the mounting bracket 30 serves to protect the electromagnetic lock 200. The flange 141 can be connected to the mounting bracket 30 by screws.

[0040] like Figure 4 As shown, this application also provides an electromagnetic lock assembly 2, which includes an electromagnetic lock 200 and a lever structure 100 as described in any of the above embodiments. The electromagnetic lock 200 is installed in the cavity 11.

[0041] Please see Figure 1 This application also provides an intelligent self-service device 1, which includes, but is not limited to, an intelligent self-service collection station, an automatic vending machine, etc. The intelligent self-service device includes a cabinet 300, a first door 400, an electromagnetic lock 200, and a lever structure 100 as described in any of the above embodiments. The electromagnetic lock 200 is installed on the cabinet 300 through the housing 10 and is correspondingly set with the first door 400.

[0042] Specifically, a latch 410 is installed on the first door 400, the mounting bracket 30 is installed on the cabinet 300, and the electromagnetic lock 200 is provided with a hook 220, which is used to hook the latch 410 to lock the first door 400.

[0043] The intelligent self-service device 1 also includes a second door 500, which is located below the cabinet 300 along its height. The end of the lever 23 furthest from the housing 10 extends in a predetermined direction towards the second door 500. Thus, if the electromagnetic lock 200 malfunctions, maintenance personnel can open the second door 500 and reach inside the cabinet 300 to push the emergency unlocking lever 210 through the bottom of the lever 23.

[0044] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0045] The embodiments described above are merely illustrative of several implementation methods of this application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this application, and these all fall within the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, the patent protection scope of this application should be determined by the appended claims.
