[0029] 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.
[0030] refer to Figure 1-3 As shown, the present invention provides a door lock peephole overall structure, including: a smart lock 1 and a peephole mechanism. A receiving groove 10 for accommodating the peephole mechanism is provided on the top of one side of the smart lock 1. A rotating component is provided in the receiving groove 10 and rotatably connected to the bottom end of the peephole mechanism. A driving component is provided between the top of the inner side of the peephole mechanism and the inner wall of the receiving groove 10. The driving component drives the peephole mechanism to be pushed outward on the rotating component for exposure or pulled inward to be hidden.
[0031] Combination Figure 1-2 As shown, the front side of the smart lock 1 is provided with an identification area 2 and a handle 3 from top to bottom. The identification area 2 includes a digital operation area and a card swiping area.
[0032] Combination Figure 3As shown, the rotating component includes a rotating seat 8 with a rotating shaft. The rotating seat 8 is installed on the outer side of the bottom of the receiving groove 10. The bottom end of the cat's eye mechanism has a through hole 9 that is sleeved on the rotating seat 8.
[0033] Combination Figure 3 As shown, the cat eye mechanism includes a long strip-shaped mounting base 6 and a camera 5 integrated on the top front side of the mounting base 6. A through hole 9 is formed at the bottom of the mounting base 6. One end of the drive component is installed on the top inner side of the mounting base 6. A flexible ribbon cable 11 connecting the camera 5 is provided between the mounting base 6 and the smart lock 1.
[0034] As described above, using the smart lock 1, peephole mechanism, receiving slot 10, rotating component, and driving component provided by this utility model, the camera 5 is electrically connected to the human body recognition sensor on the smart lock 1. When a person is detected approaching, the driving component is activated, causing the mounting base 6 to deflect outward on the rotating base 8, thereby pushing the camera 5 out of the receiving slot 10. At this time, the external environment can be viewed through the camera 5. When the person moves away, the driving component resets, causing the mounting base 6 to flip inward on the rotating base 8, making it easy to hide and store the camera 5 in the receiving slot 10, preventing dust from falling on the camera 5.
[0035] Furthermore, to facilitate pulling the drive mounting base 6 back into or out of the receiving groove 10, refer to... Figure 3-4 As shown, the driving component includes an electric actuator 4, with its two ends rotatably mounted on the top inner side of the mounting base 6 and in the receiving groove 10, respectively. The electric actuator 4 drives the mounting base 6 to deflect on the rotating base 8, thereby facilitating the camera 5 on the mounting base 6 to be pushed outward or pulled inward from the receiving groove 10. When pushed outward, the camera 5 can easily view the external environment; when pulled inward, the camera 5 can be easily stored.
[0036] In this utility model, combined with Figure 4-5 As shown, the outer side of the inner wall of the receiving groove 10 in this embodiment is also longitudinally provided with a cleaning brush 13 for cleaning the camera 5. The mounting base 6 is flipped so that the cleaning brush 13 can brush the camera 5.
[0037] Combination Figure 6-7 As shown, the inner wall of the receiving groove 10 is also provided with a longitudinally opened mounting groove 15, and the cleaning brush 13 is provided with a brush seat 14 installed in the mounting groove 15. The mounting groove 15 is also provided with a locking component for locking the position of the brush seat 14.
[0038] As described above, when using the cleaning brush 13 provided by this utility model, when the mounting base 6 drives the camera 5 into and out of the receiving groove 10, the cleaning brush 13 brushes the camera 5 to clean the dust stuck on the camera 5. The brush seat 14 on the cleaning brush 13 can be detachably installed in the receiving groove 10 by the locking component, so as to facilitate the replacement of the cleaning brush 13.
[0039] Furthermore, to facilitate the detachable installation of the brush holder 14 in the mounting slot 15, refer to... Figure 7 As shown, the locking assembly includes two protrusions 18. Recessed holes 19 are formed on the inner walls of both ends of the mounting groove 15. Each recessed hole 19 contains an elastic piece 20 for mounting the protrusion 18. A groove 17 is formed at the end of the brush holder 14 to accommodate the protrusion 18. The elastic piece 20, based on its elasticity, causes the protrusion 18 to engage in the groove 17. When the brush holder 14 is placed in the mounting groove 15, the protrusion 18 in the recessed hole 19 is automatically pushed into the groove 17 by the elastic force of the elastic piece 20. Thus, the protrusion 18 and the groove 17 restrict the brush holder 14 within the mounting groove 15, facilitating the detachable installation of the brush holder 14 in the mounting groove 15 and the replacement of the cleaning brush 13.
[0040] In this utility model, combined with Figure 4 As shown, the inner wall of the receiving groove 10 in this embodiment is also provided with a sponge 16. When the mounting base 6 is stored in the receiving groove 10, the sponge 16 wraps around the outside of the camera 5.
[0041] As described above, when the mounting base 6 is housed in the receiving groove 10, the sponge 16 covers the outside of the camera 5, thus protecting the camera 5.
[0042] In this utility model, combined with Figure 3-4 As shown, the mounting base 6 of this embodiment is also provided with a sealing plate 7 for sealing. The size of the sealing plate 7 is larger than the size of the mounting base 6, and a sealing groove 12 for accommodating the sealing plate 7 is provided at the outer end of the receiving groove 10.
[0043] As described above, when the sealing plate 7 provided by this utility model is used, after the mounting base 6 is housed in the receiving groove 10, the sealing plate 7 directly covers the sealing groove 12, and at this time, external dust will not enter the receiving groove 10.
[0044] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
