Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of stainless steel door and window product structure, and in particular to a cover plate structure for aluminum alloy door locks. Background Technology

[0002] A door lock cover is a decorative or functional metal cover installed on the outside of a door lock. It prevents the lock body from being damaged by dust, moisture, or external forces, and can also cover imperfections and rough edges left from cutting or drilling during door lock installation, enhancing the overall quality. Aluminum alloy doors typically use a cover made of the same material as the door lock to maintain the overall harmony of the door surface.

[0003] However, the cover plates of common aluminum alloy door locks have a relatively simple function, only preventing the lock body from getting dusty and damp, and providing an aesthetically pleasing appearance. In the dark, it's difficult to accurately locate the keyhole with a key, making unlocking difficult and requiring the use of a mobile phone flashlight. If your hands are full and you can't free up a hand to turn on the flashlight, the unlocking process becomes even more difficult. Furthermore, when using key-operated door locks, it's inevitable to forget your keys, but the cover plates of common aluminum alloy door locks only serve an aesthetic purpose and do not assist in unlocking the door.

[0004] Therefore, this application provides a cover plate structure for aluminum alloy door locks to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a cover plate structure for aluminum alloy door locks. This device can quickly provide soft lighting when unlocking in the dark, and can be used to open the door with a key stored in a hidden key box if the key is forgotten.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A cover plate structure for an aluminum alloy door lock includes a cover plate box and a keyhole baffle. The cover plate box includes an outer shell, a combination door, and a decorative shell. A key slot is provided on the upper surface of the outer shell near the outer wall. A combination lock buckle is fixedly provided on the inner wall of the other side of the key slot. A combination lock body is fixedly provided at one end of the outer wall of the combination door. A locking block is fixedly provided at the middle of the front and rear ends of the decorative shell. A slot is provided on the inner wall of the front and rear sides of the key slot. A sliding groove is provided on the bottom surface of each of the two slots, and an unlocking block is slidably provided on one side of each of the two sliding grooves. A sliding block is fixedly provided on the lower surface of each of the two unlocking blocks. A keyhole is provided at the midpoint of the upper surface of the outer shell.

[0008] The keyhole baffle is installed on the upper surface of the cover box. The keyhole baffle includes a baffle body, and a light strip ring is fixedly arranged inside the baffle body near the outer periphery.

[0009] Furthermore, one side of the outer wall of the password door is hinged to the inner wall of the key slot via a rotating shaft.

[0010] Furthermore, a switch is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the baffle body near the front end, and a rechargeable battery block is fixedly installed inside the baffle body.

[0011] Furthermore, a charging port is provided on one side of the outer wall of the baffle body, and a charging module is fixedly connected inside the charging port. A sealing block is slidably arranged inside the charging port against one side of the inner wall.

[0012] Furthermore, a rotating block is fixedly provided on the lower end face of the baffle body on the other side, and the rotating block is rotatably positioned on the upper end face of the outer shell on the other side of the keyhole.

[0014] Furthermore, the decorative shell is fixedly mounted inside the key slot at the upper end by two of the aforementioned clips, and a handle hole is provided on the other side of the upper surface of the shell near the outer wall.

[0015] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] 1. The present invention proposes a cover plate structure for aluminum alloy door locks. When unlocking at night, due to poor lighting, it is difficult to accurately insert the key into the keyhole, resulting in difficulty in unlocking. This device can control the internal light strip ring to emit a soft, non-glaring light through the switch on the outer wall of the cover plate to assist in unlocking.

[0017] 2. The cover plate structure for aluminum alloy door lock proposed in this utility model addresses the issue of forgetting the key when using a key lock. By simultaneously pressing the two unlocking blocks on the outer wall side of the front and rear ends of the outer shell, the decorative shell can be removed. Then, the password can be entered into the lock body to open the password door and retrieve the internal key, which can then be used to open the door. Attached Figure Description
