Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of improved lock box structure, and in particular to an improved lock box structure. Background Technology

[0002] With social development, people are paying more and more attention to quality of life and security. As a key component for safeguarding security, the performance of lock boxes has attracted much attention. Although traditional lock boxes can basically meet the locking requirements, they have many limitations. In terms of appearance design, traditional lock boxes are often monotonous and outdated in style, making it difficult to integrate with modern and diverse architectural and decoration styles. In terms of function, traditional lock boxes are relatively basic, only able to perform simple locking and unlocking operations, which cannot meet people's pursuit of intelligent and convenient living. For example, in some places where quick access is required, manual key unlocking is required every time, which is time-consuming and laborious. In terms of security, the common lock box structure is easily pried open by criminals using tools, and cannot provide sufficient reliable security protection for homes, offices and other places. Moreover, traditional lock boxes are also insufficient in durability. After frequent use, parts are prone to wear and aging, leading to frequent failures, increased maintenance costs and security risks.

[0003] The applicant discovered through a search that a Chinese patent, "An Improved Locking Case Structure," with publication (announcement) number "CN202273474U," mainly utilizes an aluminum extruded shell with a clamping arm and a first and second through hole that communicate with each other, allowing the tongue to be clamped within the first and second through holes of the aluminum extruded shell. This enables the shell to be cut from aluminum extruded frames, achieving rapid manufacturing. However, because the aluminum extruded shell has a clamping arm and a guide rail, this patent cannot achieve folding and unfolding of the handle. In actual use, in some spaces with limited space, the protruding handle may occupy a certain amount of space, potentially causing inconvenience to people passing through, increasing the risk of collisions, and causing personal injury or damage to property. Therefore, we propose an improved locking case structure. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide an improved lock box structure to solve the problem mentioned in the background art that the handle cannot be folded and unfolded for use. In actual use, in some places with limited space, the protruding handle will occupy a certain space, which may cause inconvenience to people passing through, and may easily cause collisions, resulting in physical injury or damage to property.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an improved lock box structure, including a lock body, a connector provided on the front of the lock body, a lock cylinder provided on the lower part of the front of the lock body, a foldable handle assembly provided inside the connector, the foldable handle assembly including a rotating rod, a pull plate, a spring and a limiting plate, the rotating rod being connected to a rubber sleeve and a magnetic block through the handle body, a ratchet being fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod, and a pawl being connected to the pull plate through a sliding rod.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment, the two ends of the rotating rod are rotatably connected to the inner walls of the two sides of the connector, one end of the handle body is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod, the rubber sleeve is fitted on the outer wall of the handle body, and a magnetic block is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the handle body.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment, the upper surface of the pull plate is fixedly connected to the lower end of the slide rod, the outer wall of the slide rod is slidably connected to the inner wall of the connector, and the upper end of the slide rod is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the pawl.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment, one end of the spring is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the pawl, the other end of the spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connector, the spring is sleeved on the outside of the slide rod, and the limiting plate is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the slide rod.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment, a lighting assembly is provided on the front of the lock body, below the connector and above the lock cylinder. The lighting assembly includes a lighting frame and a ring disc, and the lighting frame is fixedly installed on the front of the lock body.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment, a baffle is fixedly connected to the surface of the ring disc, a groove is provided on the inner wall of the lighting frame, the outer wall of the baffle is slidably connected to the inner wall of the groove, and a lamp tube is fixedly installed inside the lighting frame.

[0011] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0012] 1. With the foldable handle assembly, when the user needs to open the door using the handle body, the handle body can be rotated out of the connector by turning the lever. At this time, the pawl will engage with the tooth groove of the ratchet to lock it. Conversely, if the handle body is to be stored inside the connector, the slider is pulled manually to move the pawl downwards and disengage it from the tooth groove. Then the ratchet can be rotated to store the handle body into the connector. This series of operations can efficiently realize the folding and unfolding of the handle body. When the handle body is not in use, it can reduce the occupation of the surrounding space. At the same time, it ensures that the handle body can be reliably locked in the unfolded state to prevent the handle body from rotating accidentally.

[0013] 2. With the lighting components in place, when users cannot find the location of the lock cylinder, they only need to manually pull the ring disc to slide the baffle out of the lighting frame. At this time, the light tube in the lighting frame will light up, which can illuminate the location of the lock cylinder and help users find the lock cylinder quickly. This can avoid users wasting time and energy in the process of searching, and also reduce the risk of users accidentally inserting or damaging the lock due to poor visibility.

Detailed Implementation

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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.

[0021] Example 1:

[0022] Please see the appendix Figure 1 and appendix Figure 3An improved lock box structure includes a lock body 1, a connector 2 on the front of the lock body 1, a lock cylinder 3 on the lower part of the front of the lock body 1, and a foldable handle assembly 4 inside the connector 2. The foldable handle assembly 4 includes a rotating rod 401, a pull plate 406, a spring 409, and a limiting plate 410. The rotating rod 401 is connected to a rubber sleeve 403 and a magnetic block 404 via a handle body 402. A ratchet 405 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod 401. The pull plate 406 is connected to a pawl 408 via a slide rod 407. The two ends of the rotating rod 401 are rotatably connected to the inner walls of the two sides of the connector 2. The end is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating rod 401. The rubber sleeve 403 is sleeved on the outer wall of the handle body 402. The magnetic block 404 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the handle body 402. The upper surface of the pull plate 406 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the slide rod 407. The outer wall of the slide rod 407 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the connector 2. The upper end of the slide rod 407 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the pawl 408. One end of the spring 409 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the pawl 408. The other end of the spring 409 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the connector 2. The spring 409 is sleeved on the outside of the slide rod 407. The limiting plate 410 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the slide rod 407.

[0023] When the handle body 402 is rotated out of the connector 2, the ratchet 405 will rotate synchronously. Since the pawl 408 has a certain elasticity, it will rotate slightly and lift up during this process, thus ensuring that the ratchet 405 can rotate smoothly. In addition, a magnetic block 404 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the connector 2, and the two sets of magnetic blocks 404 are connected to each other by magnetic force.

[0024] Specifically, with the foldable handle assembly 4, the user needs to open the door with the handle body 402 and turn it out of the connector 2 by rotating the lever 401. The pawl 408 then engages with the tooth groove of the ratchet 405 to lock it in place. To store the handle body 402 in the connector 2, the user manually pulls the slide bar 407, which moves the pawl 408 down and disengages it from the tooth groove, allowing the ratchet 405 to be rotated and the handle body 402 to be stored. This process can efficiently complete the folding and unfolding of the handle body 402. When not in use, it can reduce space occupation. When unfolded, it can be reliably locked to prevent the handle body 402 from rotating accidentally.

[0025] Example 2:

[0026] Please see the appendix Figure 1 Appendix Figure 4 and appendix Figure 5Furthermore, based on Embodiment 1, a lighting assembly 5 is provided on the front of the lock body 1, below the connector 2 and above the lock cylinder 3. The lighting assembly 5 includes a lighting frame 501 and a ring disc 502. The lighting frame 501 is fixedly installed on the front of the lock body 1. A baffle 503 is fixedly connected to the surface of the ring disc 502. A groove 504 is provided on the inner wall of the lighting frame 501. The outer wall of the baffle 503 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the groove 504. A lamp tube 505 is fixedly installed inside the lighting frame 501.

[0027] When the lighting is not in use, the baffle 503 can play a certain role in sealing and dust prevention, preventing dust and other objects from entering the interior of the lighting frame 501. The user can pull the baffle 503 out of the slide groove 504 by using the ring disc 502.

[0028] Specifically, through the lighting component 5, when the user cannot find the location of the lock cylinder 3, they can manually pull the ring disc 502, causing the baffle 503 to slide out from the lighting frame 501. The lamp tube 505 inside the lighting frame 501 will light up, illuminating the location of the lock cylinder 3. This can help the user quickly locate the lock cylinder 3, thus avoiding the time and effort spent by the user in searching and reducing the risk of mis-insertion or damage to the lock due to poor visibility.

[0029] Working principle of this utility model: This utility model is an improved lock box structure. First, when the user needs to open the door with the handle body 402, they rotate the lever 401, causing the handle body 402 to rotate out of the connector 2. Simultaneously, the ratchet 405 fixedly connected to its outer wall rotates synchronously. Due to the elasticity of the pawl 408, the pawl 408 rotates slightly and lifts, allowing the ratchet 405 to rotate smoothly. When the handle body 402 rotates to the appropriate position for opening the door, the pawl 408 engages with the tooth groove of the ratchet 405, achieving a lock and preventing accidental rotation of the handle body 402. Next, if the user wants to retract the handle body 402 into the connector 2, they manually pull the pull plate 406. The pull plate 406 drives the slide rod 407 to move downwards synchronously, and the slide rod 407 drives the pawl 408 to overcome the elastic force of the spring 409 and move downwards. The handle body 402 is moved downwards, disengaging from the tooth groove of the ratchet 405. At this point, the ratchet 405 can be rotated, which in turn drives the rotating rod 401 and the handle body 402 to rotate, thus retracting the handle body 402 into the connector 2. In addition, the magnetic block 404 on the inner wall of the handle body 402 and the inner wall of the connector 2 attract each other, further securing the handle body 402 in its retracted state. Finally, when the user cannot find the location of the lock cylinder 3 in a dimly lit environment, the user can manually pull the ring disc 502. The baffle 503 fixed on the surface of the ring disc 502 is slidably connected to the slide groove 504 on the inner wall of the lighting frame 501. Pulling the ring disc 502 causes the baffle 503 to slide out of the lighting frame 501. As the baffle 503 slides out, the lamp tube 505 fixedly installed inside the lighting frame 501 lights up, illuminating the location of the lock cylinder 3 and helping the user quickly locate the lock cylinder 3.

[0030] 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.
