[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0026] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 4 A home electronic access control system with remote control function includes an electronic access control unit 1 and a storage module 2, wherein:
[0027] The electronic access control unit 1 is installed next to the entrance door and is responsible for realizing core functions such as identity recognition, remote control, and access control switch. It has a structure including fingerprint recognition, touch screen keyboard 11, and remote control camera 12. It can connect to the home network or mobile network through the built-in WiFi module or IoT card to realize the remote control function. The usage status of the storage module 2 can be viewed remotely through the remote control camera 12.
[0028] It should be noted that the electronic access control unit 1 used in this solution adopts existing technology. The specific model, as well as its matching power supply and control switch, can also be provided by the manufacturer. The circuits, electronic components and modules involved are all existing technologies, which can be fully implemented by those skilled in the art, and there is no need to elaborate.
[0029] The storage module 2 is installed on the electronic access control unit 1, integrating the two into one unit. Without occupying extra space, it provides users with practical temporary storage functionality. The storage module 2 includes a folding shelf 22, with an overall U-shaped structure (made of high-strength and lightweight aluminum alloy, ensuring stability and durability even under a 5kg load). The two ends of the U-shaped structure are rotatably connected to the horizontal axes 21 protruding on the left and right sides of the electronic access control unit 1, respectively. The hidden design allows the folding shelf to be unfolded when needed. The shelf 22 is laid flat (the horizontal axis 21 is located in the flow channel opened on the side wall of the electronic access control body 1. When the folding shelf 22 is laid flat, the protrusion 225 on the rear side of the folding shelf 22 contacts the rear wall of the flow channel of the electronic access control body 1, which limits the folding shelf 22 in the flat state). It can hold shopping bags, express boxes, etc. When not in use, it can be folded up and stored. At this time, the two sides and the top side of the U-shaped structure surround the left and right sides and the top side of the electronic access control body 1, and are flush with the outer shell of the electronic access control body 1, without taking up space.
[0030] A torsion spring 23 is installed between the end of the folding shelf 22 connected to the horizontal axis 21 and the electronic access control body 1. The torsion spring 23 provides appropriate torque to achieve an elastic connection between the two. When the user puts down the folding shelf 22, it needs to overcome the torque of the torsion spring 23. When the folding shelf 22 is folded up, it is automatically achieved by the rebound of the torsion spring 23. The elasticity of the torsion spring 23 can play a buffering role to avoid hard collision between the shelf and the electronic access control body 1. It also makes it easier for the user to operate and makes the opening and closing of the shelf smoother.
[0031] In one set of embodiments
[0032] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2The folding shelf 22U-shaped structure has an integrally formed hook 221 in the middle horizontal section. The hook 221 is made of stainless steel, which is sturdy and durable. It is used to hook items such as takeout bags and umbrellas, further enriching the storage function and making it more convenient for users.
[0033] In one set of embodiments
[0034] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 In the middle of the U-shaped structure of the folding shelf 22, a cover 222 extends forward to form the front side of the horizontal section. The left and right ends of the cover 222 extend along the vertical sections on both sides of the U-shaped structure. The cover 222 is made of waterproof and sun-proof PC material. Thus, when the folding shelf 22 is stored vertically, the cover 222 is located above the electronic access control body 1. At this time, the cover 222 can be used to shield from rain or light during daily door opening operations, protecting the display screen and other components of the electronic access control body 1 from the effects of rain and direct sunlight, and extending the service life of the equipment. It also has an anti-peeping function.
[0035] In one set of embodiments
[0036] Please see Figure 3 A raised plate 223 protrudes from the inner wall of the horizontal section in the middle of the U-shaped structure of the folding shelf 22. The raised plate 223 is made of the same aluminum alloy material as the shelf. (The setting of the raised plate 223 allows the horizontal section of the U-shaped structure to be a certain distance from the remote control camera 12 when it is placed vertically, so as to avoid obstructing the image acquisition line of sight.) When the folding shelf 22 is upright, the bottom end of the raised plate 223 is close to the top wall of the electronic access control body 1 to protect against rain.
[0037] The bottom of the protruding plate 223 is covered with an elastic pad 224. The elastic pad 224 is made of waterproof and wear-resistant rubber material. The elastic pad 224 is in elastic sealing contact with the top wall of the electronic access control body 1, which further improves the waterproof effect and prevents rainwater from entering the screen on the front side of the electronic access control body 1 through the gap between the protruding plate 223 and the top wall of the electronic access control body 1 when the door is opened, thus affecting the normal use of the equipment when the door is opened.
[0038] In one set of embodiments
[0039] Please see Figure 4 A soft LED light strip 3 is installed around the electronic access control body 1 (the power supply of the LED light strip 3 can be the same as that of the electronic access control body 1, and the wiring is concealed). When the ambient light is dim, the LED light strip 3 will automatically light up to provide illumination for users, making it convenient for users to identify themselves and operate the storage module 2 at night.
