Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of locomotive locks and accessories, and specifically relates to a multifunctional locomotive lock. Background Technology

[0002] Most motorcycles on the market today offer both high-end and low-end configurations for customers to choose from. The low-end uses a mechanical lock, while the high-end uses a rotary lock.

[0004] This utility model provides a multifunctional locomotive lock to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, including a lock body assembly, a lock cylinder, and a decorative outer ring. The lock cylinder and the decorative outer ring are disposed on the lock body assembly. The lock body assembly is provided with a solenoid valve mounting position and a micro switch mounting position. The upper end of the lock cylinder can be switched to be equipped with a lock cylinder cover or a knob assembly. The solenoid valve mounting position and the micro switch mounting position can be respectively equipped with a solenoid valve and a micro switch. When used as a mechanical lock, the upper end of the lock cylinder is provided with a lock cylinder cover. When used as an electronic knob lock, the upper end of the lock cylinder is provided with a knob assembly, and the solenoid valve mounting position and the micro switch mounting position are respectively equipped with a solenoid valve and a micro switch.

[0005] Furthermore, the lock body assembly is also provided with a seat lock cable assembly that can be linked with the lock cylinder.

[0006] Furthermore, when used as an electronic rotary lock, the rotary assembly touches a micro switch during the downward pressing of the lock cylinder. The micro switch transmits a switch signal to the vehicle control system, which performs key information matching and sends an unlocking signal to the solenoid valve. The solenoid valve core retracts to unlock the lock cylinder. At this time, the rotary assembly can be rotated to drive the lock cylinder to change gears.

[0007] This utility model relates to a multifunctional locomotive lock, including a lock body assembly, a lock cylinder, and a decorative outer ring. The lock cylinder and decorative outer ring are disposed on the lock body assembly. The lock body assembly is provided with a solenoid valve mounting position and a micro switch mounting position. The upper end of the lock cylinder can be switched between a lock cylinder cover and a knob assembly. The solenoid valve mounting position and the micro switch mounting position can respectively install a solenoid valve and a micro switch. When used as a mechanical lock, a lock cylinder cover is provided on the upper end of the lock cylinder; when used as an electronic knob lock, a knob assembly is provided on the upper end of the lock cylinder, and a solenoid valve and a micro switch are respectively installed on the solenoid valve mounting position and the micro switch mounting position. Thus, this structure, without changing the lock body assembly and the lock cylinder, adds a lock cylinder cover to the lock cylinder to achieve a mechanical lock state, and adds a knob assembly to the lock cylinder to achieve a knob lock state. By increasing the number of universal molds, development costs and component management costs are reduced. Attached Figure Description

[0012] The specification and claims use certain terms to refer to specific components. Those skilled in the art will understand that hardware manufacturers may use different names to refer to the same component. This specification and claims do not distinguish components based on differences in name, but rather on differences in function. The term "comprising" throughout the specification and claims is an open-ended term and should be interpreted as "comprising but not limited to." The following descriptions are preferred embodiments of the present invention; however, these descriptions are intended to illustrate the general principles of the invention and are not intended to limit its scope. The scope of protection of this invention is determined by the appended claims.

[0013] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The directional terms such as "upper", "lower", "left", "right", "inner" and "outer" described in the specification are only for better understanding and explanation, and are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0014] Example

[0015] like Figure 1-5 As shown, a multi-functional locomotive lock includes a lock body assembly 1, a lock cylinder 2, and a decorative outer ring 3. The lock cylinder 2 and the decorative outer ring 3 are disposed on the lock body assembly 1. The lock body assembly 1 is provided with a solenoid valve mounting position 1a and a micro switch mounting position 1b. The upper end of the lock cylinder 2 can be switched to be equipped with a lock cylinder cover 4 or a knob assembly 5. The solenoid valve mounting position 1a and the micro switch mounting position 1b can be respectively equipped with a solenoid valve 6 and a micro switch 7. When used as a mechanical lock, the upper end of the lock cylinder 2 is provided with a lock cylinder cover 4. When used as an electronic knob lock, the upper end of the lock cylinder 2 is provided with a knob assembly 5, and the solenoid valve mounting position 1a and the micro switch mounting position 1b are respectively equipped with a solenoid valve 6 and a micro switch 7. With the lock body assembly 1 and lock cylinder 2 remaining unchanged, this structure adds a lock cylinder cover 4 to the lock cylinder 2 to form a mechanical lock. A solenoid valve mounting position 1a and a micro switch mounting position 1b are preset on the lock body assembly 1, and a solenoid valve 6 and a micro switch 7 are installed at the solenoid valve mounting position 1a and the micro switch mounting position 1b, respectively. A knob assembly 5 is set on the lock cylinder 2 to form a knob lock. This reduces development costs and component management costs by increasing the number of universal molds.

[0016] Preferably, the lock body assembly 1 is further provided with a seat lock cable assembly 1c that can be linked with the lock cylinder 2, thereby expanding the lock's functionality and improving its practicality.

[0017] More preferably, when used as an electronic rotary lock, the rotary assembly 5 touches the micro switch 7 during the process of driving the lock cylinder 2 to press down. The micro switch 7 transmits the switch signal to the vehicle control system. The vehicle control system performs key information matching and sends an unlocking signal to the solenoid valve 6. The iron core of the solenoid valve 6 retracts to unlock the lock cylinder 2. At this time, the rotary assembly 5 can be rotated to drive the lock cylinder 2 to perform gear shifting.

[0018] This utility model relates to a multifunctional locomotive lock, including a lock body assembly, a lock cylinder, and a decorative outer ring. The lock cylinder and decorative outer ring are disposed on the lock body assembly. The lock body assembly is provided with a solenoid valve mounting position and a micro switch mounting position. The upper end of the lock cylinder can be switched between a lock cylinder cover and a knob assembly. The solenoid valve mounting position and the micro switch mounting position can respectively install a solenoid valve and a micro switch. When used as a mechanical lock, a lock cylinder cover is provided on the upper end of the lock cylinder; when used as an electronic knob lock, a knob assembly is provided on the upper end of the lock cylinder, and a solenoid valve and a micro switch are respectively installed on the solenoid valve mounting position and the micro switch mounting position. Thus, this structure, without changing the lock body assembly and the lock cylinder, adds a lock cylinder cover to the lock cylinder to achieve a mechanical lock state, and adds a knob assembly to the lock cylinder to achieve a knob lock state. By increasing the number of universal molds, development costs and component management costs are reduced.
