Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a folding curtain component suitable for smart homes, belonging to the field of smart homes. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, the most common type of smart curtain on the market is the linearly moving curtain. It uses a motor to drive a lead screw, which in turn moves a nut along the screw axis. The nut connects to the curtain via a hook, pulling the curtain along. However, this design has several drawbacks. Because the lead screw and nut drive mechanism can only move in a straight line, it is unsuitable for situations involving bending, such as when there are windows on both sides of a corner. In such cases, people prefer to use a curved curtain to cover both walls simultaneously, requiring the curtain track to be bent. Existing smart curtain drive mechanisms cannot adapt to this situation. Utility Model Content
[0003] To overcome the aforementioned shortcomings, the purpose of this invention is to provide a folding curtain assembly suitable for smart homes. This allows for the application of smart curtains on different planes with folding angles. It offers the advantages of simple operation and convenient implementation.
[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows: a folding curtain assembly suitable for smart homes, comprising a fabric sheet, a first track, several sliders, hooks, and end caps. The first track has a connected sliding groove and a connecting groove, the width of which is greater than the width of the connecting groove. The sliders slide in the sliding groove. One end of the hook is fixedly connected to the slider, and the other end passes through the connecting groove. The first track is folded, with a first mounting base and a second mounting base respectively provided at both ends. A stepper motor, an output shaft, and a drive wheel are connected in the first mounting base. The stepper motor is connected to the drive wheel through the output shaft. A driven wheel and a driven shaft are connected in the second mounting base. One end of the driven shaft is fixedly connected to the second mounting base, and the other end is rotatably connected to the driven wheel. A coil connected end-to-end is sleeved between the driven wheel and the drive wheel. A first through hole is provided in the center of the slider. The slider at one end of the first track is fixedly connected to the coil, and the slider at the other end is fixedly connected to the first track. The first through holes of the remaining sliders are connected to the coil.
[0005] The present invention is further configured such that: a second track is provided between the first mounting base and the second mounting base, and a plurality of sliders are slidably connected in the second track, and the coil passes through the sliders in the second track.
[0006] The present invention is further configured such that: the end cap includes a cover body and a plurality of first bolts; one end of the cover body is provided with an insertion groove; the ends of the first track and the second track are installed in the insertion groove; the end of the cover body is provided with a second through hole; the coil passes through the second through hole; and the first bolts pass through the edge of the cover body.
[0007] The present invention is further configured such that: the first mounting base includes a mounting plate and a side plate, and a plurality of second bolts are provided through the edge of the mounting plate; the side plate is connected to the side of the mounting plate, and a plurality of third through holes are provided on the side plate; the second mounting base has the same structure as the first mounting base.
[0008] The present invention is further configured such that: a plurality of third bolts are connected through the first mounting base, and the third bolts are screwed to the end of the stepper motor.
[0009] The present invention is further configured such that the side plate on the first mounting base is connected to the stepper motor via a support base.
[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: Since the slider slides in the first track, one end of the hook is fixedly connected to the slider, and the other end passes through the connecting groove to connect to the fabric. The first track is bent, and the fabric bends accordingly, covering the space between adjacent walls with an angle. The stepper motor is started, and the stepper motor drives the driving wheel to rotate via the output shaft, which in turn drives the driven wheel to rotate. Since the slider at one end of the first track is fixedly connected to the coil, it moves with the coil and pushes the adjacent slider to move until it stops moving against the slider at the other end of the first track. This is the process of opening the curtain. When it is necessary to close the curtain, the stepper motor rotates in the opposite direction, the coil pulls the slider at one end of the first track, and through the fabric, pulls the adjacent slider to move until the fabric is fully open. Since the slider at the other end of the first track is fixedly connected to the first track, this slider does not move with the coil, so the fabric can be fully opened. The bent curtain assembly suitable for smart homes shown in this patent application facilitates the application of smart curtains on different planes with angles. It has the advantages of simple operation and convenient implementation. Attached Figure Description

[0016] See appendix Figure 1-4 As shown, a folding curtain assembly suitable for smart homes in this embodiment includes a fabric piece (not shown), a first track 1, several sliders 2, hooks 16, and end caps 13. The first track 1 has a connected groove 12 and a connecting groove 15, the width of the groove 12 being greater than the width of the connecting groove 15; the sliders 2 slide in the groove 12; one end of the hook 16 is fixedly connected to the slider 2, and the other end passes through the connecting groove 15; the first track 1 is folded, and a first mounting base 21 and a second mounting base 22 are respectively provided at both ends, with a stepper motor connected in the first mounting base 21. 19. Output shaft 4 and drive wheel 5; Stepper motor 19 is connected to drive wheel 5 through output shaft 4; Driven wheel 10 and driven shaft 11 are connected in the second mounting base 22. One end of driven shaft 11 is fixedly connected to the second mounting base 22, and the other end is rotatably connected to driven wheel 10; A coil 23 connected end to end is sleeved between driven wheel 10 and drive wheel 5; A first through hole 14 is provided in the center of slider 2; Slider 2 at one end of the first track 1 is fixedly connected to coil 23, slider 2 at the other end is fixedly connected to the first track 1, and the first through hole 14 of the remaining slider 2 is connected to coil 23.
[0017] Because slider 2 slides in the first track, one end of hook 16 is fixedly connected to slider 2, and the other end passes through the connecting groove 15 to connect to the fabric. The first track 1 is bent, and the fabric bends accordingly. It covers the adjacent walls with an angle. Stepper motor 19 is started, and stepper motor 19 drives the drive wheel 5 to rotate through output shaft 4. Drive wheel 5 drives driven wheel 10 to rotate. Because slider 2 at one end of the first track 1 is fixedly connected to coil 23, it moves with coil 23 and pushes the adjacent slider 2 to move. It stops moving when it comes into contact with slider 2 at the other end of the first track 1. This is the process of opening the curtain. When it is necessary to close the curtain, stepper motor 19 rotates in the opposite direction, coil 23 pulls slider 2 at one end of the first track 1, and through the fabric, pulls the adjacent slider 2 to move until the fabric is fully opened. Because slider 2 at the other end of the first track 1 is fixedly connected in the first track 1, slider 2 does not move with coil 23, so the fabric can be fully opened and laid between the adjacent walls.
[0018] Preferably, the coil 23 passes unobstructed through the first through hole 14. The slider 2 at one end of the first track 1 is flattened, and the first through hole 14 of the slider 2 is fixedly connected to the coil 23. The slider 2 at the other end is fixedly connected to the first track 1 by adhesive. Preferably, the stepper motor 19 is electrically connected to a controller, which interfaces with a home cloud platform. The controller is connected to the drive mechanism and can receive instructions from the home cloud platform to control the operation of the drive mechanism. A positioning module is provided at one end of the first track 1. When the slider 2, fixedly connected to the coil 23, abuts against the positioning module, the fabric is fully unfolded, and the stepper motor 19 stops driving.
[0019] In this embodiment, the coil 23 outside the first track 1 is exposed and linearly connected between the first mounting base 21 and the second mounting base 22. It is easily affected by external interference. To avoid interference, this invention further includes a second track 3 between the first mounting base 21 and the second mounting base 22. Several sliders 2 are slidably connected in the second track 3, and the coil 23 passes through the sliders 2 in the second track 3. The coil 23 moves within the second track 3, which protects it from external interference.
[0020] To prevent the slider 2 from falling off the first track 1 and the second track 3, the present invention is further configured as follows: the end cover 13 includes a cover body 131 and a plurality of first bolts 132. One end of the cover body 131 is provided with a insertion groove 134, and the ends of the first track and the second track are installed in the insertion groove 134. The end of the cover body 131 is provided with a second through hole 133, and the coil 23 passes through the second through hole 133; the first bolts 132 pass through the edge of the cover body 131.
[0021] For ease of installation, this utility model is further configured as follows: the first mounting base 21 includes a mounting plate 7 and a side plate 8, with a plurality of second bolts 6 extending through the edge of the mounting plate 7; the side plate 8 is connected to the side of the mounting plate 7, and has a plurality of third through holes 9; the second mounting base 22 has the same structure as the first mounting base 21. A plurality of third bolts 17 extend through the first mounting base 21, and the third bolts 17 are screwed to the end of the stepper motor 19. The side plate 8 on the first mounting base 21 is connected to the stepper motor 19 via a support base 18.
[0022] In summary, the principle of the folding curtain assembly suitable for smart homes shown in this utility model is as follows: The mounting plate 7 is connected to the ceiling via the second bolt 6. A fourth bolt (not shown) is inserted through the third through hole 9 of the side plate 8, and the fourth bolt is connected to the wall. The side plate 8 provides support for the stepper motor 19 via the support base 18. The third bolt 17 is screwed to the end of the stepper motor 19. The stepper motor 19 is installed in the first mounting base 21. The drive wheel 5 is located between a pair of third bolts 17. The end cap 13 covers the ends of the first track 1 and the second track 3. The first bolt 132 penetrates the end and connects to the ceiling. The coil 23 passes through the second through hole 133 and connects to the drive wheel 5 or the driven wheel 10.
[0023] When the curtains need to be opened, the stepper motor 19 is started, which drives the drive wheel 5 to rotate in the forward direction via the output shaft 4. The drive wheel 5 then drives the driven wheel 10 to rotate. Since the slider 2 at one end of the first track 1 is fixedly connected to the coil 23, it moves with the coil 23 and pushes the adjacent slider 2 to move until it stops moving after contacting the slider 2 at the other end of the first track 1.
[0024] When the curtains need to be closed, the stepper motor 19 rotates in the reverse direction, and the coil 23 pulls the slider 2 at one end of the first track 1, which in turn pulls the adjacent slider 2 through the fabric until the fabric is fully open. Since the slider 2 at the other end of the first track is fixedly connected to the first track 1, it does not move with the coil 23, allowing the fabric to fully open. The folding curtain assembly shown in this patent application, suitable for smart homes, facilitates the application of smart curtains on different planes with folds. It has the advantages of simple operation and convenient implementation.
