Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of lock technology, and more specifically, to a smart cabinet lock. Background Technology
[0002] Smart lockers are used to lock and unlock cabinets. With technological advancements and increased intelligence in locks, smart lockers are becoming more widely used. However, smart lockers can experience problems such as insufficient internal power supply or damaged unlocking circuits, leading to unlocking malfunctions and even the inability to unlock. Utility Model Content
[0003] This application provides a smart locker that can effectively reduce the risk of the smart locker failing to unlock.
[0004] This application provides an intelligent lock for cabinets, used to rotate the bolt to achieve locking and unlocking. It includes a lock shell, a lock sleeve, a lock cylinder, an electronic unlocking mechanism for conventional unlocking, and an electronic lock cylinder for emergency unlocking. The lock sleeve is rotatably disposed within the lock shell. The lock cylinder is rotatably disposed within the lock sleeve. The electronic unlocking mechanism is disposed within the lock shell and has a first locked state that locks the lock sleeve to the lock shell and a first unlocked state that unlocks the lock sleeve to the lock shell. The electronic lock cylinder is movably disposed within the lock cylinder along the axial direction of the lock cylinder and has a second locked state that locks the lock cylinder to the lock sleeve and a second unlocked state that unlocks the lock cylinder to the lock sleeve. The electronic lock cylinder includes a Type-C male connector. Movement of the electronic lock cylinder relative to the lock cylinder allows the Type-C male connector to extend out of or retract into the lock cylinder. The Type-C male connector is used to connect to a terminal device so that the terminal device provides power to the electronic lock cylinder. The lock cylinder is used to rotate the bolt when the electronic unlocking mechanism is in the first unlocked state and / or the electronic lock cylinder is in the second unlocked state.
[0005] In the above technical solution, the electronic lock cylinder used for emergency unlocking can lock the cylinder and lock sleeve in the second locking state, enabling circumferential locking of the cylinder and lock sleeve. When the electronic unlocking mechanism unlocks the lock sleeve and lock shell using conventional unlocking, the electronic lock cylinder can lock the cylinder and lock sleeve, allowing them to rotate synchronously to drive the bolt, thus achieving unlocking and locking. When the electronic unlocking mechanism locks the lock sleeve and lock shell, the electronic lock cylinder switches to the second unlocking state to unlock the cylinder and lock sleeve, allowing the cylinder to rotate relative to the lock sleeve, thereby driving the bolt to rotate and achieving unlocking and locking. The Type-C male connector extends from the cylinder to facilitate connection between the Type-C male connector and the terminal device, improving the ease of use of the Type-C male connector. The Type-C male connector retracts into the cylinder, which protects the Type-C male connector and reduces the risk of damage. In such a smart locker lock, in the event of a malfunction in the electronic unlocking mechanism, emergency unlocking can be achieved by unlocking the lock sleeve and lock cylinder using the electronic lock cylinder, reducing the risk of the smart locker lock being unable to unlock.
[0006] In some embodiments, the electronic lock cylinder includes a lock cylinder housing, an unlocking component, and a first driving member. The lock cylinder housing is axially disposed within the lock cylinder and circumferentially locked to it. The unlocking component is disposed within the lock cylinder housing and has a first state of locking the lock cylinder and the lock sleeve and a second state of unlocking the lock cylinder and the lock sleeve. When the unlocking component is in the first state, the electronic lock cylinder is in a second locked state; when the unlocking component is in the second state, the electronic lock cylinder is in a second unlocked state. The first driving member is disposed within the lock cylinder housing and electrically connected to a Type-C male connector. The first driving member is configured to drive the unlocking component to switch between the first and second states. By electrically connecting the Type-C male connector for connecting to a terminal device to the first driving member, the first driving member can drive the unlocking component to switch between the first and second states using power supplied by the terminal device. This allows the electronic lock cylinder to unlock using an external power source. This design reduces the number of components within the electronic lock cylinder, decreasing its size and installation complexity. Furthermore, the Type-C male connector connected to the terminal device can receive unlocking or locking signals from the terminal device and transmit power, improving the performance of the electronic lock cylinder.
[0007] In some embodiments, the lock cylinder housing has a first position for extending the Type-C male connector out of the lock cylinder and a second position for retracting the Type-C male connector into the lock cylinder. The smart lock also includes a manual unlocking mechanism disposed in the lock cylinder. The manual unlocking mechanism has a third locked state and a third unlocked state. The manual unlocking mechanism is configured to: lock the lock cylinder housing in the first or second position in the third locked state; and unlock the lock cylinder housing in the first or second position in the third unlocked state. This allows the lock cylinder housing to be locked in place by the manual unlocking mechanism, making its position more stable. This helps improve the stability of the Type-C male connector when connecting to terminal devices and also contributes to its stability within the lock cylinder, reducing the risk of damage from impacts.
[0008] In some embodiments, the sidewall of the lock cylinder is provided with a through hole, and the outer peripheral surface of the lock cylinder housing is provided with a first locking groove and a second locking groove. The first locking groove and the second locking groove are spaced apart along the axial direction. When the lock cylinder housing moves along the axial direction, the through hole can be aligned with the first locking groove and the second locking groove. The manual unlocking mechanism includes a first locking member and an unlocking knob. The first locking member is movably disposed in the through hole. The unlocking knob is at least partially located outside the lock housing. The unlocking knob is movably sleeved on the outside of the lock cylinder along the axial direction and circumferentially locked with the lock cylinder. The unlocking knob has a third position and a fourth position. The unlocking knob is configured to: restrict the first locking member from exiting the first locking groove or the second locking groove in the third position to lock the lock cylinder housing in the first position or the second position; and allow the first locking member to exit the first locking groove or the second locking groove in the fourth position to unlock the lock cylinder housing located in the first position or the second position. By switching between the third and fourth positions using the unlocking knob, the axial movement of the lock cylinder housing can be restricted or allowed, making the position switching of the lock cylinder housing more convenient, and the insertion of the lock cylinder housing into external devices is more stable when it extends out of the lock sleeve.
[0009] In some embodiments, the inner circumferential surface of the unlocking knob is provided with a limiting protrusion. The limiting protrusion is configured to: align with the first locking member when the unlocking knob is in a third position to restrict the first locking member from exiting the first locking groove or the second locking groove; and be offset from the first locking member when the unlocking knob is in a fourth position to allow the first locking member to exit the first locking groove or the second locking groove. In this way, the limiting protrusion and the first locking member can cooperate to restrict the movement of the lock cylinder housing or allow the lock cylinder housing to move, reducing the difficulty of adjusting the position of the lock cylinder housing.
[0010] In some embodiments, the smart lock cabinet further includes a first elastic element disposed between the lock sleeve and the unlocking knob. The first elastic element is configured to drive the unlocking knob to reset from a fourth position to a third position. By disposing the first elastic element between the lock sleeve and the unlocking knob, the first elastic element can reset the unlocking knob to the third position, thereby ensuring that the unlocking knob maintains its restraint on the first locking member, which helps to stabilize the position of the lock cylinder housing.
[0011] In some embodiments, the smart lock cabinet further includes a second elastic element disposed between the lock cylinder and the lock cylinder housing. The second elastic element is configured to drive the lock cylinder housing to switch relative to the lock cylinder from the second position to a first position when the manual unlocking mechanism unlocks the lock cylinder housing located in the second position. By disposing the second elastic element between the lock cylinder and the lock cylinder housing, the second elastic element can push the lock cylinder housing to the first position, thereby placing the Type-C male connector outside the lock cylinder, which facilitates the connection of the Type-C male connector to the terminal device.
[0012] In some embodiments, the inner circumferential surface of the lock sleeve is provided with a first limiting groove, and the side wall of the lock cylinder is provided with a through hole; the unlocking assembly includes a second locking member and a stop member; the second locking member is movably disposed on the lock cylinder housing along a first direction and partially extends into the through hole, the first direction intersecting the axial direction of the lock sleeve; the stop member is connected to a first driving member, and the stop member has a fifth position and a sixth position, the first driving member being used to drive the stop member to switch between the fifth position and the sixth position, the stop member being configured such that: in the fifth position, the second locking member is restricted from disengaging from the first limiting groove, so that the unlocking assembly is in a first state; in the sixth position, the second locking member is allowed to exit the first limiting groove, so that the unlocking assembly is in a second state. By setting the stop member to switch between the fifth position and the sixth position, the second locking member can lock the lock sleeve and the lock cylinder or allow the second locking member to disengage from the lock sleeve, so that the lock cylinder can rotate relative to the lock sleeve, making the locking or unlocking of the lock cylinder and the lock sleeve more convenient.
[0013] In some embodiments, the smart lock cabinet further includes a third elastic element disposed between the lock cylinder housing and the second locking member. The third elastic element is configured to drive the second locking member from the position of exiting the first limiting groove to the position of entering the first limiting groove. This makes it easier for the second locking member to extend into the first limiting groove, thereby making the relative position of the lock cylinder and the lock sleeve more stable.
[0014] In some embodiments, the smart lock also includes an unlocking knob, which is sleeved on the outside of the lock cylinder and circumferentially locked to it. At least a portion of the unlocking knob is located outside the lock housing. Thus, after the electronic unlocking mechanism and / or the electronic lock cylinder are unlocked, turning the unlocking knob can unlock and lock the smart lock, optimizing the unlocking and locking mechanism of the smart lock.

[0033] Please refer to Figures 1-4 , Figure 1 This is a structural schematic diagram of the intelligent cabinet lock 10 provided in some embodiments of this application; Figure 2 Exploded views of the smart locker lock 10 provided in some embodiments of this application; Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the internal structure of the smart locker 10 provided in some embodiments of this application; Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the structure of the electronic lock cylinder 5, lock cylinder 3, lock sleeve 2, and lock tongue 20 provided in some embodiments of this application. Embodiments of this application provide an intelligent cabinet lock 10, used to rotate the lock tongue 20 to achieve locking and unlocking, including a lock housing 1, lock sleeve 2, lock cylinder 3, an electronic unlocking mechanism 4 for conventional unlocking, and an electronic lock cylinder 5 for emergency unlocking. The lock sleeve 2 is rotatably disposed within the lock housing 1 about its own axis. The lock cylinder 3 is rotatably disposed within the lock sleeve 2 about its axis. The electronic unlocking mechanism 4 is disposed in the lock housing 1, and has a first locked state that locks the lock sleeve 2 to the lock housing 1 and a first unlocked state that unlocks the lock sleeve 2 from the lock housing 1. The electronic lock cylinder 5 is movably disposed within the lock cylinder 3 along the axial direction X, and has a second locked state that locks the lock cylinder 3 to the lock sleeve 2 and a second unlocked state that unlocks the lock cylinder 3 from the lock sleeve 2. The electronic lock cylinder 5 includes a Type-C male connector 54, which can extend out of or retract into the lock cylinder 3 when the electronic lock cylinder 5 moves relative to the lock cylinder 3. The Type-C male connector 54 is used to connect to a terminal device so that the terminal device can provide power to the electronic lock cylinder 5. The lock cylinder 3 is configured to rotate the bolt 20 when the electronic unlocking mechanism 4 is in the first unlocked state and / or the electronic lock cylinder 5 is in the second unlocked state.
[0034] The intelligent locker lock 10 can be installed on a target locker to close or open it. The target locker can be a storage cabinet, safe, or similar type. The intelligent locker lock 10 drives the bolt 20 to rotate, allowing it to engage with a mating component during rotation to achieve locking. For example, the mating component can be a latching piece with a slot located on the rotation path of the bolt 20. When the bolt 20 rotates into the slot, it engages with the latching piece to lock; when the bolt 20 rotates out of the slot, it disengages from the latching piece to unlock.
[0035] The lock housing 1 can form an internal receiving space 13 to accommodate other components of the smart lock cabinet 10. Exemplarily, the lock cylinder is accommodated within the receiving space 13. The lock housing 1 can have various structures. In some embodiments, the lock housing 1 may include a first lock housing 11 and a second lock housing 12. The first lock housing 11 can be installed on the target lock cabinet, and the first lock housing 11 and the second lock housing 12 are interlocked. The first lock housing 11 can be a hollow structure open on one side, and the second lock housing 12 can also be an open hollow structure. The open side of the first lock housing 11 and the open side of the second lock housing 12 are interlocked to form a lock housing 1 with the receiving space 13. Alternatively, the first lock housing 11 can be a hollow structure open on one side, and the second lock housing 12 can be a plate-like structure, with the second lock housing 12 interlocked with the open side of the first lock housing 11 to form a lock housing 1 with the receiving space 13.
[0036] The lock housing 1 may have a chamber for the lock sleeve 2 to rotate, facilitating the assembly of the lock sleeve 2 and the lock housing 1; wherein, the chamber may be part of the receiving space 13. The lock sleeve 2 may be entirely housed within the lock housing 1; alternatively, a portion of the lock sleeve 2 may be housed within the lock housing 1, with the other portion located outside the lock housing 1. The lock sleeve 2 may have a cylindrical shape. The axis of rotation of the lock sleeve 2 within the lock housing 1 is the axis of rotation of the lock sleeve 2.
[0037] The entire lock cylinder 3 can be housed within the lock sleeve 2; alternatively, a portion of the lock cylinder 3 can be housed within the lock sleeve 2, with the other portion located outside the lock cylinder 3. The lock cylinder 3 can rotate relative to the lock sleeve 2 within the lock sleeve 2. The lock cylinder 3 can be positioned relative to the lock sleeve 2 along the axial direction X; for example, a limiting block is provided on the outer circumferential surface of the lock cylinder 3, and an annular groove adapted to the limiting block is provided on the inner circumferential surface of the lock sleeve 2. The annular groove surrounds the lock cylinder 3. When the lock cylinder 3 rotates relative to the lock sleeve 2, the limiting block moves within the annular groove, and the annular groove restricts the movement of the limiting block along the axial direction X, thereby restricting the movement of the lock cylinder 3 relative to the lock sleeve 2 along the axial direction X.
[0038] The electronic unlocking mechanism 4 is configured to: lock the lock sleeve 2 and the lock housing 1 in a first locked state to restrict the lock sleeve 2 from rotating relative to the lock housing 1; and unlock the lock sleeve 2 and the lock housing 1 in a first unlocked state to allow the lock sleeve 2 to rotate relative to the lock housing 1. The electronic unlocking mechanism 4 can unlock an electronic lock that receives a command. For example, the electronic unlocking mechanism 4 can unlock via fingerprint recognition, Bluetooth recognition, or other methods.
[0039] The electronic lock cylinder 5 is disposed within the lock cylinder 3, allowing it to rotate with the lock cylinder 3. The electronic lock cylinder 5 can be fixed inside the lock cylinder 3, or it can move axially (X) relative to the lock cylinder 3. The entire electronic lock cylinder 5 can be disposed within the lock cylinder 3; alternatively, a portion of the electronic lock cylinder 5 can be located inside the lock cylinder 3, while another portion is located outside. The electronic lock cylinder 5 is configured to: lock the lock cylinder 3 and the lock sleeve 2 in the second locked state, thereby circumferentially locking the lock cylinder 3 and the lock sleeve 2; and unlock the lock cylinder 3 and the lock sleeve 2 in the second unlocked state, allowing the lock cylinder 3 to rotate about the X-axis relative to the lock sleeve 2.
[0040] The electronic lock cylinder 5 includes a Type-C male connector 54. The Type-C male connector 54 is used to connect to a terminal device so that the terminal device can provide power to the electronic lock cylinder 5.
[0041] When the Type-C male connector 54 is connected to a terminal device, the terminal device can supply power to the electronic lock cylinder 5 through the Type-C male connector 54, enabling the electronic lock cylinder 5 to switch between the second locked state and the second unlocked state. The terminal device can be a mobile phone.
[0042] The lock cylinder housing 51 can move along the axial direction X, allowing the Type-C male connector 54 to extend out of the lock cylinder 3 or retract into the lock cylinder 3. In some embodiments, when the Type-C male connector 54 retracts into the lock cylinder 3, a rubber plug 101 can be provided at one end of the lock cylinder 3 near the Type-C male connector 54 to seal the lock cylinder 3, and the rubber plug 101 can protect the Type-C male connector 54.
[0043] When the Type-C male connector 54 extends out of the lock cylinder 3, the Type-C male connector 54 may be located inside the lock housing 1; only a portion of the Type-C male connector 54 may extend out of the lock housing 1; or the entire Type-C male connector 54 may extend out of the lock housing 1.
[0044] The Type-C male connector 54 can also be replaced by a Micro USB male connector or a Lightning male connector.
[0045] Terminal devices can be mobile phones, tablets, smartwatches, and other similar devices.
[0046] The rotation of the lock cylinder 3 relative to the lock housing 1 drives the bolt 20 to rotate, thereby achieving locking and unlocking. The electronic unlocking mechanism 4 can be in a first unlocked state to allow the lock cylinder 3 to rotate; the electronic lock cylinder 5 can be in a second unlocked state to allow the lock cylinder 3 to rotate; or the electronic unlocking mechanism 4 can be in the first unlocked state and the electronic lock cylinder 5 can be in the second unlocked state to allow the lock cylinder 3 to rotate. The lock cylinder 3 and the bolt 20 can be directly connected; or the lock cylinder 3 and the bolt 20 can be connected via a transmission rod 104. For example, the transmission rod 104 is pin-connected to the lock cylinder 3, and the bolt 20 is bolted to the transmission rod 104.
[0047] In this embodiment, the electronic lock cylinder 5 for emergency unlocking can lock the cylinder 3 and the lock sleeve 2 in the second locked state, enabling the cylinder 3 and the lock sleeve 2 to be circumferentially locked. When the electronic unlocking mechanism 4 unlocks the lock sleeve 2 and the lock shell 1 in the conventional unlocking state, the lock sleeve 2 and the cylinder 3 can rotate synchronously to drive the bolt 20 to rotate, thus achieving unlocking and locking. When the electronic unlocking mechanism 4 locks the lock sleeve 2 and the lock shell 1, the electronic lock cylinder 5 switches to the second unlocking state to unlock the cylinder 3 and the lock sleeve 2, allowing the cylinder 3 to rotate relative to the lock sleeve 2, thereby driving the bolt 20 to rotate, thus achieving unlocking and locking. In such a smart cabinet lock 10, when the electronic unlocking mechanism 4 malfunctions, the lock sleeve 2 and the lock cylinder 3 can be unlocked by the electronic lock cylinder 5; or when the electronic lock cylinder 5 malfunctions, the lock sleeve 2 and the lock shell 1 can be unlocked by the electronic unlocking mechanism 4, reducing the risk that the smart cabinet lock 10 cannot be unlocked. The Type-C male connector 54 extends out of the locking cylinder 3 to facilitate connection between the Type-C male connector 54 and the terminal device, improving the ease of use of the Type-C male connector 54. The Type-C male connector 54 retracts into the locking cylinder 3, which protects the Type-C male connector 54 and reduces the risk of damage to the Type-C male connector 54.
[0048] In some embodiments, please continue to refer to Figure 3 The lock housing 1 contains a power supply 45, which powers the drive motor 41. When the power supply 45 is depleted, the lock can be unlocked via the electronic lock cylinder 5. The power supply 45 can be a battery.
[0049] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 3The outer circumferential surface of the lock sleeve 2 is provided with a lock groove. The electronic unlocking mechanism 4 may include a drive motor 41, a transmission block 42, a locking block 43, and a return spring 44. The transmission block 42 is disposed at the drive end of the drive motor 41. The locking block 43 has a locking position that cooperates with the lock groove and an unlocking position that is offset from the lock groove. The drive motor 41 can drive the transmission block 42 to rotate, and the transmission block 42 drives the locking block 43 to move from the locking position to the unlocking position. The locking block 43 includes a first segment extending along the axial direction X and a second segment extending along the first direction Y. One end of the first segment is connected to the transmission block 42, and the other end is connected to the second segment. The end of the second segment away from the first segment can be inserted into the lock groove so that the locking block 43 is in the locking position. The return spring 44 is located at the end of the lock housing 1 where the first segment connects to the second segment. The return spring 44 can drive the locking block 43 to move from the unlocking position to the locking position. The axial direction X is perpendicular to the first direction Y.
[0050] In some embodiments, the smart locker lock 10 further includes a main control board, to which the drive motor 41 and power supply 45 are electrically connected. The main control board can receive unlocking commands to control the start, stop, and rotation angle of the drive motor 41. The main control board may be equipped with a Bluetooth module, which is connected to a terminal device via Bluetooth, allowing the terminal device to send unlocking commands to the main control board.
[0051] In some embodiments, a wake-up button 103 may also be provided on the lock housing 1. The wake-up button 103 is electrically connected to the main control board. Pressing the wake-up button 103 enables the main control board to receive electrical energy provided by the power supply 45.
[0052] In some embodiments, please continue to refer to Figures 1-4 And further refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 , Figure 5 Exploded views of the electronic lock cylinder 5, lock core 3, and lock sleeve 2 provided in some embodiments of this application; Figure 6 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an electronic lock cylinder 5 provided in some embodiments of this application. The electronic lock cylinder 5 includes a lock cylinder housing 51, an unlocking component 52, and a first driving member 53. The lock cylinder housing 51 is disposed within the lock cylinder 3 and is circumferentially locked to the lock cylinder 3. The unlocking component 52 is disposed within the lock cylinder housing 51 and has a first state of locking the lock cylinder 3 and the lock sleeve 2 and a second state of unlocking the lock cylinder 3 and the lock sleeve 2. When the unlocking component 52 is in the first state, the electronic lock cylinder 5 is in the second locked state; when the unlocking component 52 is in the second state, the electronic lock cylinder 5 is in the second unlocked state. The first driving member 53 is disposed within the lock cylinder housing 51 and is configured to drive the unlocking component 52 to switch between the first state and the second state. A Type-C male connector 54 is electrically connected to the first driving member 53 and is used to connect to a terminal device so that the terminal device provides power to the first driving member 53.
[0053] The lock cylinder housing 51 and the lock cylinder 3 can be fixedly connected, for example, by pinning or snapping the lock cylinder housing 51 and the lock cylinder 3; or the lock cylinder housing 51 can move axially (X) relative to the lock cylinder 3. The lock cylinder housing 51 and the lock cylinder 3 are circumferentially locked, meaning that the lock cylinder housing 51 cannot rotate relative to the lock cylinder 3.
[0054] The unlocking component 52 is configured to lock the lock cylinder 3 and the lock sleeve 2 in a first state, thereby circumferentially locking the lock cylinder 3 and the lock sleeve 2; and to unlock the lock cylinder 3 and the lock sleeve 2 in a second state, allowing the lock cylinder 3 to rotate relative to the lock sleeve 2. A first driving member 53 can drive the unlocking component 52 to switch between the first and second states. The first driving member 53 can be a motor.
[0055] When the Type-C male connector 54 is connected to a terminal device, the terminal device can supply power to the first driving component 53 through the Type-C male connector 54, so that the first driving component 53 drives the unlocking component 52 to change its state. The terminal device can be a mobile phone. In some embodiments, the electronic lock cylinder 5 also includes a control board 57. When the Type-C male connector 54 is plugged into the terminal device, the control board 57 can identify information of the terminal device to allow or prevent the terminal device from sending instructions to the control board 57, thereby controlling the first driving component 53 to rotate or remain silent.
[0056] In this embodiment, by setting a Type-C male connector 54 for connecting to the terminal device and electrically connecting it to the first driving component 53, the first driving component 53 can drive the unlocking component 52 to switch between a first state and a second state through the power provided by the terminal device, thereby enabling the electronic lock cylinder 5 to unlock through the external power supply 45. This design can reduce the number of components inside the electronic lock cylinder 5, reducing the size and difficulty of setting up the electronic lock cylinder 5; on the other hand, the Type-C male connector 54 can receive the unlocking or locking signals of the terminal device and also transmit power, improving the performance of the electronic lock cylinder 5.
[0057] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 And further refer to Figure 7 , Figure 7 This is a schematic diagram of the assembly of the electronic lock cylinder 5, lock shell 3, and lock sleeve 2 provided in some embodiments of this application (lock cylinder housing 51 is in the first position). The lock cylinder housing 51 has a first position in which the Type-C male connector 54 extends out of the lock shell 3 and a second position in which the Type-C male connector 54 retracts into the lock shell 3. When the lock cylinder housing 51 is in the first position, the Type-C male connector 54 extends out of the lock shell 1. In this embodiment, the Type-C male connector 54 can extend out of the lock shell 1, reducing the risk of interference between the lock shell 1 and the terminal device when the Type-C male connector 54 is connected to the terminal device.
[0058] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 , Figure 8 for Figure 7 A magnified view of area A in the middle. The lock cylinder housing 51 has a first position in which the Type-C male connector 54 extends out of the lock cylinder 3 and a second position in which the Type-C male connector 54 retracts into the lock cylinder 3. The smart lock cabinet lock 10 also includes a manual unlocking mechanism 6, which is disposed in the lock cylinder 3. The manual unlocking mechanism 6 has a third locked state and a third unlocked state. The manual unlocking mechanism 6 is configured to: lock the lock cylinder housing 51 in the first or second position in the third locked state; and unlock the lock cylinder housing 51 in the first or second position in the third unlocked state.
[0059] The manual unlocking mechanism 6 can lock the position of the lock cylinder housing 51 or allow the lock cylinder housing 51 to move along the axial direction X. The manual unlocking mechanism 6 can be a pin, bolt, etc. For example, the manual unlocking mechanism 6 is a pin, the lock cylinder housing 51 is provided with a hole, the pin is inserted into the hole to lock the position of the lock cylinder housing 51, and the pin is pulled out of the hole to allow the lock cylinder housing 51 to move.
[0060] In this embodiment, the position of the lock cylinder housing 51 can be locked by the manual unlocking mechanism 6, making the position of the lock cylinder housing 51 more stable. This helps to improve the stability of the Type-C male connector 54 when connecting to the terminal device, and also helps to improve the stability of the Type-C male connector 54 inside the lock cylinder 3, reducing the risk of the Type-C male connector 54 being damaged by bumps.
[0061] In some embodiments, please continue to refer to Figure 7 and Figure 8 The lock cylinder 3 has a through hole 31 on its side wall, and a first locking groove 511 and a second locking groove 512 are provided on the outer peripheral surface of the lock cylinder housing 51. The first locking groove 511 and the second locking groove 512 are spaced apart along the axial direction X. When the lock cylinder housing 51 moves along the axial direction X, the through hole 31 can be aligned with the first locking groove 511 and the second locking groove 512. The manual unlocking mechanism 6 includes a first locking member 61 and an unlocking knob 62. The first locking member 61 is movably disposed in the through hole 31. The unlocking knob 62 is at least partially located on the outer side of the lock housing 1. The unlocking knob 62 is movably sleeved on the outside of the lock cylinder 3 along the axial direction X and circumferentially locked with the lock cylinder 3. The unlocking knob 62 has a third position and a fourth position. The unlocking knob 62 is configured to: in the third position restrict the first locking member 61 from exiting the first locking groove 511 or the second locking groove 512 to lock the lock cylinder housing 51 in the first position or the second position; and in the fourth position allow the first locking member 61 to exit the first locking groove 511 or the second locking groove 512 to unlock the lock cylinder housing 51 located in the first position or the second position.
[0062] The first locking member 61 is disposed within the through hole 31. When the first locking groove 511 or the second locking groove 512 is aligned with the through hole 31, the first locking member 61 can be partially embedded in the first locking groove 511 or the second locking groove 512, thereby restricting the movement of the lock cylinder housing 51 along the axial direction X. When the lock cylinder housing 51 moves along the axial direction X, the groove wall of the first locking groove 511 or the groove wall of the second locking groove 512 can push the first locking member 61 out of the first locking groove 511 or the second locking groove 512, thereby releasing the restriction of the first locking member 61 on the lock cylinder housing 51. The unlocking knob 62, in the third position, restricts the first locking member 61 from exiting the first locking groove 511 or the second locking groove 512, thereby allowing the first locking member 61 to maintain its restriction on the lock cylinder housing 51, thus stabilizing the position of the lock cylinder housing 51. In the fourth position, the unlocking assembly 52 releases the restriction on the first locking member 61, allowing the first locking member 61 to exit the first locking groove 511 or the second locking groove 512, thereby enabling the lock cylinder housing 51 to move. Figure 8 As shown, the first locking member 61 can be spherical.
[0063] In this embodiment, by switching the unlocking knob 62 between the third and fourth positions, the movement of the lock cylinder housing 51 along the axial direction X can be restricted or allowed, making the position switching of the lock cylinder housing 51 more convenient, and the insertion of the lock cylinder housing 51 into the external device is more stable when it extends out of the lock sleeve 2.
[0064] In some embodiments, please continue to refer to Figure 8 The inner circumferential surface of the unlocking knob 62 is provided with a limiting protrusion 621. The limiting protrusion 621 is configured to: align with the first locking member 61 when the unlocking knob 62 is in the third position, so as to restrict the first locking member 61 from exiting the first locking groove 511 or the second locking groove 512; and be offset from the first locking member 61 when the unlocking knob 62 is in the fourth position, so as to allow the first locking member 61 to exit the first locking groove 511 or the second locking groove 512.
[0065] When the limiting protrusion 621 is aligned with the first locking member 61, the limiting protrusion 621 can push the first locking member 61 into the first locking groove 511 or the second locking groove 512, and restrict the first locking member 61 from exiting the first locking groove 511 or the second locking groove 512, thereby restricting the position of the lock cylinder housing 51. When the limiting protrusion 621 is misaligned with the first locking member 61, the limiting protrusion 621 releases the restriction on the first locking member 61, and the groove wall of the first locking groove 511 or the groove wall of the second locking groove 512 can push the first locking member 61 out of the first locking groove 511 or the second locking groove 512, thereby allowing the lock cylinder housing 51 to move axially in the X direction.
[0066] In this embodiment, the limiting protrusion 621 and the first locking member 61 can cooperate to restrict the movement of the lock cylinder housing 51 or allow the lock cylinder housing 51 to move, reducing the difficulty of adjusting the position of the lock cylinder housing 51.
[0067] In some embodiments, please continue to refer to Figure 8 The limiting protrusion 621 has a bevel 6211, which is configured to drive a portion of the first locking member 61 into the first locking groove 511 or the second locking groove 512 during the movement of the unlocking knob 62 from the fourth position to the third position.
[0068] When the first locking member 61 disengages from the first locking groove 511 or the second locking groove 512, the inclined surface 6211 can contact the first locking member 61, thereby driving a portion of the first locking member 61 into the first locking groove 511 or the second locking groove 512.
[0069] In this embodiment, by setting the inclined surface 6211, the difficulty of the first locking member 61 partially entering the first locking groove 511 or the second locking groove 512 can be reduced, making it more convenient for the first locking member 61 to enter the first locking groove 511 or the second locking groove 512.
[0070] In some embodiments, please continue to refer to Figure 8 The smart locker lock 10 also includes a first elastic element 7, which is disposed between the lock sleeve 2 and the unlocking knob 62. The first elastic element 7 is configured to drive the unlocking knob 62 to reset from the fourth position to the third position.
[0071] The first elastic element 7 can be a spring. The unlocking knob 62 can be compressed by external force, so that the first elastic element 7 can be compressed during the process of the unlocking knob 62 moving from the third position to the fourth position; after the external force is released, the first elastic element 7 can drive the unlocking knob 62 to return from the fourth position to the third position.
[0072] In this embodiment, by placing the first elastic element 7 between the lock sleeve 2 and the unlocking knob 62, the first elastic element 7 can reset the unlocking knob 62 to the third position, thereby keeping the unlocking knob 62 restricting the first locking element 61, which is beneficial to stabilizing the position of the lock cylinder housing 51.
[0073] In some embodiments, the smart cabinet lock 10 further includes a second elastic element 8, which is disposed between the lock cylinder 3 and the lock cylinder housing 51. The second elastic element 8 is configured to drive the lock cylinder housing 51 to switch relative to the lock cylinder 3 from the second position to the first position when the manual unlocking mechanism 6 unlocks the lock cylinder housing 51 located in the second position.
[0074] The second elastic element 8 can push the lock cylinder housing 51, which is in the second position, to the lock cylinder 3 when the unlocking knob 62 is in the fourth position. The second elastic element 8 can be a spring.
[0075] In this embodiment, by placing the second elastic member 8 between the lock cylinder 3 and the lock cylinder housing 51, the second elastic member 8 can push the lock cylinder housing 51 to the first position, thereby making the Type-C male connector 54 located outside the lock cylinder 3, which is beneficial for the connection between the Type-C male connector 54 and the terminal device.
[0076] In some embodiments, please continue to refer to Figure 5 and Figure 7 The lock cylinder 3 has a waist-shaped groove 33 extending along the X-axis on its side wall, and a pin hole 513 is provided on the lock cylinder housing 51. The intelligent cabinet lock 10 also includes a pin 102, which is inserted into the pin hole 513 and movably inserted into the waist-shaped groove 33 along the X-axis. In this way, the lock cylinder 3 and the lock cylinder can be locked together along the X-axis, and the lock cylinder can move relative to the lock cylinder 3 along the X-axis.
[0077] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 7 and Figure 9 , Figure 9 for Figure 7 A partial enlarged view of area B. The inner circumferential surface of the lock sleeve 2 is provided with a first limiting groove 21, and the side wall of the lock cylinder 3 is provided with a through hole 32. The unlocking assembly 52 includes a second locking member 521 and a stop member 522. The second locking member 521 is movably disposed on the lock cylinder housing 51 along a first direction Y and partially extends into the through hole 32. The first direction Y intersects the axial direction X of the lock sleeve 2. The stop member 522 is connected to a first driving member 53 and has a fifth position and a sixth position. The first driving member 53 is used to drive the stop member 522 to switch between the fifth position and the sixth position. The stop member 522 is configured such that: in the fifth position, it restricts the second locking member 521 from disengaging from the first limiting groove 21, so that the unlocking assembly 52 is in a first state; in the sixth position, it allows the second locking member 521 to exit the first limiting groove 21, so that the unlocking assembly 52 is in a second state.
[0078] The second locking member 521 may include a connecting rod 5211 and a first locking ball 5212 disposed at the end of the connecting rod 5211. A stop member 522 is connected to the driving end of the first driving member 53, which can drive the stop member 522 to rotate. When the stop member 522 rotates to the fifth position, it abuts against the connecting rod 5211 to restrict the first locking ball 5212 from moving away from the first limiting groove 21. When the stop member 522 rotates to the sixth position, it avoids the connecting rod 5211. When the lock cylinder 3 rotates, the groove wall of the first limiting groove 21 can squeeze the first locking ball 5212, causing the first locking ball 5212 to disengage from the first limiting groove 21, allowing the lock cylinder 3 to rotate relative to the lock sleeve 2.
[0079] In this embodiment, by setting the stop 522 to switch between the fifth position and the sixth position, the second locking member 521 can lock the lock sleeve 2 and the lock cylinder 3, or the second locking member 521 can disengage from the lock sleeve 2, so as to allow the lock cylinder 3 to rotate relative to the lock sleeve 2, making it more convenient to lock or unlock the lock cylinder 3 and the lock sleeve 2.
[0080] In some embodiments, the stop member 522 is provided with a clearance notch 5221. When the stop member 522 is in the fifth position, it can restrict the second locking member 521 from moving away from the first limiting groove 21. When the stop member 522 is in the sixth position, the second locking member 521 can be partially engaged with the clearance notch 5221 to release the position of the second locking member 521, thereby allowing the second locking member 521 to disengage from the first limiting groove 21.
[0081] In an embodiment where the lock cylinder housing 51 can move along the axial direction X, the first limiting groove 21 can extend along the axial direction X, and the through hole 32 can also extend along the axial direction X. When the lock cylinder housing 51 moves along the axial direction X and the unlocking assembly 52 is in the first state, a portion of the second locking member 521 can move along the axial direction X within the first limiting groove 21, so that a portion of the second locking member 521 is held within the first limiting groove 21, thereby circumferentially locking the lock sleeve 2 and the lock cylinder 3.
[0082] In some embodiments, please continue to refer to Figure 9 The intelligent cabinet lock 10 also includes a third elastic element 9, which is disposed between the lock cylinder housing 51 and the second locking element 521. The third elastic element 9 is configured to drive the second locking element 521 to switch from the position of exiting the first limiting groove 21 to the position of entering the first limiting groove 21.
[0083] The second locking member 521 needs to overcome the elastic force of the third elastic member 9 to compress the third elastic member 9 before it can exit the first limiting groove 21. The third elastic member 9 then returns to its original shape to push the second locking member 521 into the first limiting groove 21.
[0084] The third elastic element 9 may be a spring. For example, the third elastic element 9 is sleeved on the connecting rod 5211 and abuts between the first locking ball 5212 and the lock cylinder housing 51.
[0085] In this embodiment, the second locking member 521 can more easily extend into the first limiting groove 21, thereby making the relative position of the lock cylinder 3 and the lock sleeve 2 more stable.
[0086] In some embodiments, the smart cabinet lock 10 further includes an unlocking knob 62, which is sleeved on the outside of the lock cylinder 3 and circumferentially locked to the lock cylinder 3, with at least a portion of the unlocking knob 62 located outside the lock housing 1.
[0087] It is possible that only a portion of the unlocking knob 62 is located outside the lock housing 1; or the entire unlocking knob 62 is located outside the lock housing 1.
[0088] In this embodiment, after the electronic unlocking mechanism 4 and / or the electronic lock cylinder 5 are unlocked, rotating the unlocking knob 62 can unlock and lock the smart cabinet lock 10, thus optimizing the unlocking and locking method of the smart cabinet lock 10.
[0089] In some embodiments, please continue to refer to Figure 7 and Figure 9 And further refer to Figure 10 , Figure 10 This is an exploded view of the electronic lock cylinder 5 provided in some embodiments of this application. The electronic lock cylinder 5 also includes a first magnet 55 and a second magnet 56. The first magnet 55 is installed on the lock cylinder housing 51, and the second magnet 56 is installed on the stop member 522. When the stop member 522 is in the fifth position, the second magnet 56 faces the first magnet 55, which can enhance the magnetic attraction between the first magnet 55 and the second magnet 56, thereby restricting the stop member 522 in the fifth position. The stop member 522 can maintain the restriction on the second locking member 521, so that the lock cylinder 3 and the lock sleeve 2 are in a stable locked state, reducing the risk of abnormal unlocking of the smart cabinet lock 10 due to collision or knocking.
[0090] In some embodiments, please continue to refer to Figure 10The lock cylinder housing 51 includes a first housing portion 514, a second housing portion 515, and a third housing portion 516. The first housing portion 514 is sleeved on the outside of the second housing portion 515 and the third housing portion 516. The electronic lock cylinder 5 also includes a control board 57, which is connected to a Type-C male connector 54 and installed on the second housing portion 515. A first drive member 53 is installed on the second housing portion 515 and is kinetically connected to a stop member 522. A second locking member 521 is inserted into the third housing portion 516, and a third elastic member 9 is disposed between the second locking member 521 and the third housing portion 516. The stop member 522 extends into the third housing portion 516 so that the stop member 522 can cooperate with the second locking member 521 to lock the lock cylinder 3 and the lock sleeve 2.
[0091] In some embodiments, the smart cabinet lock 10 operates as follows:
[0092] When the electronic lock cylinder 5 is in the second locked state, the second locking member 521 is partially inserted into the first limiting groove 21, and the stop member 522 restricts the second locking member 521 from disengaging from the first limiting groove 21, so that the lock cylinder 3 and the lock sleeve 2 are circumferentially locked. During normal unlocking, the terminal device and the electronic unlocking mechanism 4 can be connected via Bluetooth or other means. After the electronic unlocking mechanism 4 recognizes the terminal device, it can send an unlocking command to the main control board connected to the electronic unlocking mechanism 4 through the terminal device. The main control board controls the drive motor 41 to receive the power supply 45 to drive the locking block 43 to move, unlocking the lock sleeve 2 and the lock shell 1. Then, the unlocking knob 62 can be rotated, which drives the lock cylinder 3 and the lock sleeve 2 to rotate synchronously, thereby unlocking the smart cabinet lock 10. In emergency unlocking, the terminal device can be connected to the Type-C male connector. After the electronic lock cylinder 5 recognizes the terminal device, it can send an unlocking command to the control board 57 of the electronic lock cylinder 5. The control board 57 can allow the terminal device to transmit power to the first drive member 53 and control the first drive member 53 to rotate, so as to drive the stop member 522 to avoid the second locking member 521. By rotating the unlocking knob 62, the groove wall of the first limiting groove 21 can squeeze the second locking member 521, so that the second locking member 521 is disengaged from the first limiting groove 21, thereby allowing the lock cylinder 3 to rotate relative to the lock sleeve 2 to unlock the smart cabinet lock 10.
