[0040] like Figures 1-6 As shown, a remote-controlled smartphone management box includes:
[0041] The housing 101 has an internal cavity for accommodating the mobile phone;
[0042] The box door 102 is fixed to the connector 104. The connector 104 is hinged to the box body 101. A spring is provided at the hinge, which can open the box door 102 when it is not restricted. A handle 103 is provided on the box door 102 to facilitate pushing and pulling the box door 102.
[0043] The remote control lock is located in the storage cavity and includes a latch 205, a buckle 206 and a drive component 207, wherein the drive component 207 is pulsatorically connected to the latch 205.
[0044] The locking tongue 205 can be angled at the end near the door 102, such as... Figure 6 As shown, the side of the latch 205 that contacts the latch 206 is a flat surface.
[0045] A wireless communication module is installed inside the housing 101 and is used to receive remote control signals and control the operation of the drive unit 207.
[0046] The wireless communication module and remote control lock are fixed inside the housing 101 with screws inserted into screw holes 300.
[0047] The manual unlocking mechanism includes a keyhole 201, a push rod 203, and a transmission gear 202. The keyhole 201 is located on the outer wall of the housing 101. The push rod 203 is linked with the transmission gear 202 and is connected to the latch 205.
[0048] The power module supplies power to the wireless communication module and the driver 207.
[0049] The wireless communication module pairs with the mobile terminal via wireless signal and unlocks the door 102 via the manual unlocking mechanism when the power is off. The wireless communication module has a built-in central controller, which is electrically connected to the wireless communication module and the remote lock module and is used to control the action commands of the wireless communication module and the remote lock module.
[0050] In one embodiment, the remote control lock is an electromagnetic lock, the drive component 207 is a motor drive module, the motor can be a miniature linear motor, the motor drive module drives the lock tongue 205 to slide and extend, and the motor drive module is electrically connected to the wireless communication module.
[0051] In one embodiment, the wireless communication module includes a WiFi chip, which connects to the Internet via a router and communicates with a cloud platform to relay remote commands.
[0052] In one embodiment, a reminder module is provided on the housing 101.
[0053] Specifically, the wireless communication module can use 433 RF signals to transmit radio wave signals and pair with the mobile phone. After successful pairing, the parent can send an unlocking command through the mobile APP. After receiving the command, the WiFi chip triggers the drive component 207, and the motor drive module drives the lock tongue 205 to slide open, so that the door 102 can be opened automatically without restriction. The mobile APP can also set a timer for opening and a warning sound. The warning module can be set on the outside of the cabinet 101. The warning module can be composed of a flashing red light or a buzzer. For example, when the mobile phone leaves the cabinet 101 for a certain period of time, the warning module will automatically issue a warning by flashing a red light or emitting a buzzer sound, and will also issue a reminder through the mobile APP.
[0054] In one embodiment, the manual unlocking mechanism further includes:
[0055] The key is adapted to the keyhole 201 and can be connected to the transmission gear 202 for transmission. For example, the keyhole 201 is configured as a cylindrical body on the outside and a rectangular hollow body on the inside. The cylindrical body of the keyhole 201 is fixed to the rotation shaft of the transmission gear 202. The lock cylinder is located on the outside of the keyhole 201 and is used to check whether the key matches. Only a matching key can open the lock cylinder.
[0056] The spring return structure 204 is used to restore the push rod 203 to its initial position, that is, the position where the latch 205 is extended, after the key is removed.
[0057] For example, when the cabinet door 102 is opened, pushing the cabinet door 102 to close it will cause the latch 205 to be pushed into the latch 206 under the action of the spring return structure 204, thus automatically locking the door.
[0058] Specifically, in the event of a power outage or network malfunction, a key can be inserted into the keyhole 201 to rotate the transmission gear 202, which will drive the push rod 203 to move, causing the latch 205 to retract and unlock the device.
[0059] In one embodiment, the power module includes:
[0060] Main power interface, used to connect to the main power supply;
[0061] A spare battery compartment is located at the bottom of the housing 101;
[0062] The power switching module automatically switches to the backup battery compartment for power supply when the main power supply fails.
[0063] Specifically, this mobile phone management box can be powered by a direct plug-in connection or by the battery compartment. When the direct plug-in power supply fails, the power switching module automatically switches to the backup battery compartment for power supply. The battery can be a rechargeable battery. When switching from the backup battery compartment to the direct plug-in power supply, the backup battery compartment can be powered through the direct plug-in power supply. A power detection module can also be set to monitor the remaining power of the backup battery compartment in real time. Whenever the remaining power is below 80%, it can automatically start charging and automatically stop charging when it reaches 99%. This design is beneficial to battery life.
[0064] The power module is equipped with a product switch, which controls the power supply to the entire storage box.
[0065] In one embodiment, a detection module is provided on the bottom wall of the storage cavity. The detection module is electrically connected to the central controller and is used to detect whether the mobile phone is placed inside the housing 101, and to send a reminder signal to the mobile terminal through the wireless communication module.
[0066] In one embodiment, the detection module is a pressure sensor. When the pressure sensor detects pressure, it sends a signal to the mobile terminal. The detection module also includes a camera, which is turned on every 10 minutes to detect whether the object inside the container is a mobile phone, facilitating remote monitoring by management personnel.
[0067] In one embodiment, the edge of the door 102 is provided with a sealing strip to prevent water from entering.
[0068] The method of using this remote-controlled smartphone management box is as follows:
[0069] To pair the device on your mobile phone, press the product's power button for eight seconds to enter pairing mode. Then, add the found device directly within the mobile app for operation. The mobile app can directly connect to the cloud server; as long as there is a 4G or 5G network, it can interact with the cloud for data exchange and control. The cloud acts as a signal relay and storage space. Instructions are received from the cloud, parsed, and converted into proprietary protocol signals before being sent to the designated node. The corresponding wireless communication module receives the signal, the central controller analyzes it, and sends instructions to the remote lock to perform the corresponding unlocking action.
[0070] For any parts not mentioned in this utility model, existing technologies can be used or referenced.
[0071] The various embodiments in this specification are described in a progressive manner. The same or similar parts between the various embodiments can be referred to each other. Each embodiment focuses on describing the differences from other embodiments.
