[0018] 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.

[0019] Example 1: Please see Figure 1 - Figure 6 A smart window that is easy for the elderly to use includes an alloy frame 1, which is fixedly embedded in the wall, and two aluminum alloy window frames 2 are installed on the alloy frame 1 by means of pins. Each aluminum alloy window frame 2 is fixedly installed with two glass panels 3 and a louver 4. The aluminum alloy window frames 2, glass panels 3 and louver 4 form a complete aluminum alloy window.

[0020] A window lock assembly 5 is installed inside the aluminum alloy window frame 2 on the right side, and an insertion hole 201 is opened on the side of the aluminum alloy window frame 2 on the left side. Window lock assembly 5 includes: Manual part: includes a hand wrench 501, one end of which is fixed with a long rotating shaft 502, and the other end of which is fixed with a low gear 503. The bottom of the low gear 503 is meshed with a rack 504, and a pin 505 is fixedly installed on the rack 504. The electric component includes a drive motor 506, the output end of which is connected to a high gear 507 via a coupling, and the high gear 507 meshes with the low gear 503. The aluminum alloy window frame 2 has an internal receiving groove 202. A limiting groove 203 is fixed inside the receiving groove 202. A slide 5061 is fixed at the bottom of the drive motor 506. The slide 5061 slides in the limiting groove 203. A spring rod 508 is fixed between the top of the slide 5061 and the inner top of the limiting groove 203.

[0021] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 Specifically, the louver 4 is located between two glass panels 3, and the glass panels 3 and the aluminum alloy window frame 2 form a seal for the louver 4.

[0022] The glass plate 3 provides dust protection for the louvered window 4, and the opening and closing of the louvered window 4 is electrically controlled and will not be affected.

[0023] Specifically, the aluminum alloy window frame 2 rotates around the edge of the alloy frame 1 via a pin.

[0024] A motor can be installed inside the alloy frame 1, which drives the pin to rotate, thereby controlling the rotation of the aluminum alloy window frame 2 and realizing the opening and closing of the aluminum alloy window.

[0025] See Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 , Figure 6 Specifically, the height of the pin 505 is the same as the height of the socket 201, and the pin 505 is inserted into the socket 201 after being moved.

[0026] When the pin 505 is inserted into the socket 201, it restricts the relative position of the two aluminum alloy window frames 2. Combined with the rotation restriction of the aluminum alloy window frame 2 by the alloy frame 1, the two aluminum alloy window frames 2 are locked together, ensuring indoor safety.

[0027] Specifically, the opening of the socket 201 is a horizontally placed funnel-shaped structure, and the end of the pin 505 is a bullet-shaped structure.

[0028] The limiting structure of the opening of the socket 201 and the end structure of the pin 505 facilitate better mating between the pin 505 and the socket 201.

[0029] See Figure 2 , Figure 4 Specifically, the aluminum alloy window frame 2 has a sliding hole 204 on its side, which is connected to the receiving groove 202, and the pin 505 slides inside the sliding hole 204. A baffle 509 is fixedly installed at the connection between the pin 505 and the rack 504.

[0030] The sliding hole 204 is used to restrict the movement direction of the pin 505, and the baffle 509 is used to limit the insertion length of the pin 505, so as to prevent the pin 505 from separating from the interior of the aluminum alloy window frame 2.

[0031] See Figure 2 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 Specifically, an L-shaped aluminum alloy plate 205 is installed on the side of the aluminum alloy window frame 2 on the right side by screws, and the inner side of the L-shaped aluminum alloy plate 205 is tightly attached to the inner wall of the receiving groove 202.

[0032] The L-shaped aluminum alloy plate 205 can be removed to expose the receiving groove 202 to the outside, thereby facilitating the maintenance of the window lock assembly 5 inside the receiving groove 202.

[0033] Working principle: This type of aluminum alloy window has two modes of use: The electric mode is suitable for elderly people with limited mobility or weak hand strength. In this mode, the remote control drives the motor 506 to rotate, which in turn controls the high gear 507 to rotate. The high gear 507 drives the low gear 503 to rotate. When the low gear 503 rotates, the aluminum alloy window can be locked / unlocked. Specifically, when the low gear 503 rotates clockwise, the rack 504 pushes outward along the sliding hole 204. When the rack 504 enters the socket 201, the two aluminum alloy windows are locked together. When the low gear 503 rotates counterclockwise, the rack 504 moves inward along the sliding hole 204. When the rack 504 completely disengages from the socket 201, the two aluminum alloy windows are unlocked. The drive motor 506 rotates in the same direction as the high gear 507 and the low gear 503.

[0034] The manual mode is suitable for people with sufficient hand strength to use aluminum alloy windows. In this mode, manually turning the hand wrench 501 will cause the low gear 503 to rotate synchronously. Utilizing the elasticity of the spring rod 508, the height of the high gear 507, the slide 5061, and the drive motor 506 can be changed. At this time, the rack 504 can be moved to control the locking / unlocking of the aluminum alloy window.

[0035] Among them, the hand-tightening wrench 501 and the low-position gear 503 rotate in the same direction.

[0036] Example 2 Based on the above-mentioned Example 1, a further description is made.

[0037] Combined with the Internet, a signal transceiver and a control chip are added to the aluminum alloy doors and windows, enabling the linkage between the aluminum alloy windows and other applications.

[0038] Specifically, the linkage between the aluminum alloy windows and the temperature and humidity is established. The temperature and humidity detector detects the temperature and humidity. When the temperature and humidity meet the condition for closing the windows, the aluminum alloy windows can be controlled to close automatically.

[0039] Specifically, when the air conditioner is turned on indoors or it is windy and rainy outdoors, the aluminum alloy windows close automatically.

[0040] Specifically, when the aluminum alloy doors and windows are closed, an air purifier can detect the indoor air quality. When the indoor air quality is poor, the air purifier is automatically turned on for air purification.

[0041] Specifically, the connection between the handheld APP / remote control and the aluminum alloy doors and windows is established through the Internet, facilitating the remote control and viewing of the doors and windows in the house.

[0042] Specifically, when a fire or gas leakage occurs, the abnormal situation can be detected by a smoke sensor or a gas leakage detection device, triggering the linkage of the aluminum alloy windows to complete the opening of the aluminum alloy doors and windows, and the mobile APP can receive an alarm push.

[0043] Specifically, a voice system is established to enable remote control of the aluminum alloy doors and windows when used by people with limited mobility.

[0044] The above is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present utility model; however, the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed by the present utility model, according to the technical solution of the present utility model and its improved concept, makes equivalent substitutions or changes, and all should be covered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
