Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of daily necessities technology, specifically to an anti-theft lock for a soap dispenser. Background Technology

[0002] In public places such as hotels and bathrooms, cleaning products such as shampoo and shower gel are usually provided in the washrooms for guests to use. However, the current common practice is to install shelves on the bathroom walls and place the bottles of cleaning products directly in them. This method has several problems: firstly, some guests may take the cleaning products with them when they leave the hotel, causing financial losses to the hotel; secondly, the indiscriminate removal of cleaning product bottles may also pose certain safety hazards.

[0003] Commercially available anti-theft locks for soap dispensers often suffer from complex structures, which not only hinders product installation and dispenser replacement but also increases labor costs. Furthermore, the numerous parts in these locks not only increase product costs but also increase the likelihood of various problems due to the increased number of failure modes. In addition, some anti-theft locks for soap dispensers are not completely secure; even when locked, the bottle can still be removed by tilting it at a certain angle.

[0004] Patent document CN221013051U discloses a limiting anti-theft soap dispenser holder, which adds a locking function by having locking plates at the front and back of the soap dispenser to fix it to a fixed base plate and lock it with a lock to prevent theft. However, this structure is not only relatively complex, but also limits the height of the soap dispenser, only adapting to soap dispensers of specific sizes, thus having a narrow range of applications. Furthermore, it requires a key or lock cylinder to unlock and lock, making operation relatively cumbersome. In addition, limiting and fixing the neck of the soap dispenser only through inner and outer locking plates results in poor stability; during use, the soap dispenser may loosen or shift due to external force, affecting the user experience.

[0005] Patent document CN 213524938U discloses a sliding rail type lifting anti-theft soap dispenser rack. This structure utilizes a track formed by rivets and a base plate. The rivets slide up and down within the track, simultaneously causing the lifting frame to slide up and down. To fix the lifting frame's position, simply tighten the hex bolts with a wrench. The adjustable lifting platform position accommodates soap dispensers of different heights, diameters, and capacities. While this structure allows for adaptation to different soap dispenser bottles via the lifting platform, it also increases the overall complexity of the structure and makes operation cumbersome.

[0017] Optionally, the cover plate has a mounting hole in the middle, and the cover plate is installed by screws.

[0018] Optionally, the inner wall of the body is provided with a through hole at the position directly in front of the mounting hole, and the through hole is used to install a buckle cover.

[0019] Optionally, an unlocking mark is provided on the exterior of the body corresponding to and corresponding to the position of the iron piece.

[0020] Optionally, the body and the cover plate are fixed by ultrasonic welding.

[0021] Optionally, the contact point between the plug and the iron part is provided with a ramp.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, this application has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0023] 1. Based on further analysis and research of the existing technical problems, this application provides a soap dispenser anti-theft lock, including a body and a plug-in that are interlocked. The inner walls of the plug-in and the body together form an annular wall that is adapted to the neck of the soap dispenser. The upper and lower parts of the plug-in and the body are respectively provided with stepped structures to restrict the vertical movement of the soap dispenser. An iron part is provided inside the body. The unlocking device is a magnetic unlocking device, which is placed outside the body and corresponds to the position of the iron part when unlocking.

[0025] 3. The double anti-detachment design (step structure) effectively restricts the movement of the soap dispenser in the vertical direction, ensuring that the soap bottle cannot be removed without unlocking, thus keeping the soap dispenser fixed during use. This design not only improves the stability and reliability of the soap dispenser (soap bottle) but also enhances its safety, while making installation and disassembly more convenient.

[0026] 4. Compared with similar products on the market, this application eliminates the soap dispenser holder, a component that requires specifying the height of the soap dispenser. This product directly fixes the soap dispenser through the cooperation of the plug and the main body, which not only simplifies the structure but also makes it more stable. It can also be adapted to soap dispensers of various heights, making it more widely used.

[0027] 5. The upper and lower parts of the plug are respectively provided with a first upper step and a first lower step, and the upper and lower parts of the body are respectively provided with a second upper step and a second lower step. The four steps cooperate with each other to restrict the movement of the soap dispenser in the vertical direction. In addition, the plug and the body are also connected by a second strip-shaped slot and a strip to enhance the stability of the body and the plug in the vertical direction, prevent loosening or displacement, and further improve the stability and reliability of the overall device.

[0028] In addition, the exterior of the main body is equipped with an unlocking mark, which makes it easy for users to quickly and accurately place the unlocking device and perform the unlocking operation, achieving rapid positioning and improving efficiency; both the main body and the plug-in are hollow shell structures, which can reduce the weight of the overall structure, save materials, and reduce production costs.

[0029] 6. The main body is also equipped with a drain outlet to promptly discharge water condensed from water vapor, reducing the risk of corrosion of metal parts. Attached Figure Description

[0043] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0044] In the description of this application: unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more. The terms "first," "second," "third," etc., in this application are intended to distinguish the objects referred to and do not have any special meaning in terms of technical connotation (e.g., they should not be construed as an emphasis on importance or order). Expressions such as "comprising," "including," and "having" also mean "not limited to" (certain units, components, materials, steps, etc.).

[0045] The terms used in this application, such as "upper," "lower," "left," "right," and "middle," are generally used to indicate the general relative positional relationship for the purpose of intuitive understanding by referring to the accompanying drawings, and are not absolute limitations on the positional relationship in the actual product.

[0046] One embodiment of this application provides an anti-theft lock for a soap dispenser, such as... Figures 1-10 As shown, it includes: a body 2 and a plug 4 that are plugged into each other in the horizontal direction. A cover plate 3 is provided at the rear of the body 2. The cover plate 3 is used to connect with the wall.

[0047] The inner walls of the plug 4 and the body 2 together form an annular wall surface, which is adapted to the neck 101 of the soap dispenser 1. The upper and lower parts of the plug 4 and the body 2 are respectively provided with stepped structures. The stepped structures are used to restrict the movement of the soap dispenser 1 in the vertical direction, ensuring that it remains fixed during use and will not loosen or shift. When locked, the bottle cannot be tilted, which improves safety.

[0048] The main body 2 has a lock cap 5 inside. The lock cap 5 has a slot along the longitudinal direction. The slot contains an iron piece 6. The iron piece 6 is divided into a first column 61, a limiting plate 62 and a second column 63 from top to bottom. The first column 61 has a spring 7 on its outside. The two ends of the spring 7 are connected to the upper part of the limiting plate 62 and the top surface of the main body 2, respectively. The bottom plate of the lock cap 5 and the transverse insert plate 43 of the plug 4 are respectively provided with a first lock hole 501 and a second lock hole 431 for the second column 63 to pass through.

[0049] It also includes a lock pick, which is a magnetic lock pick (magnet). The magnetic attraction between the magnetic lock pick and the iron part 6 is greater than the spring force of the spring 7. Based on this principle, when the user has specific requirements for the magnetic force required for unlocking, different specifications of springs can be used to adapt the lock pick to different magnetic forces. When unlocking is required, the lock pick is placed on the outside of the main body 2 corresponding to the position of the iron part 6, and the lock is unlocked by the magnetic attraction between the magnetic lock pick and the iron part 6. Based on this principle,

[0050] In the locked state, spring 7 is in a semi-compressed state, and the bottom end of the second column 63 of the iron piece 6 is inserted into the second lock hole 431 of the transverse insert plate 43. In the unlocked state, the iron piece 6 is attracted by magnetic force, causing it to move upward. At this time, spring 7 is in a fully compressed state, and the bottom end of the second column 63 of the iron piece 6 moves into the first lock hole 501. The function of spring 7 is to ensure that the second column 63 at the bottom of the iron piece 6 can accurately fall into the second lock hole 431 of the transverse insert plate 43 without deviation, and to pull the iron piece 6 back to its initial position after the magnetic unlocker is removed, thus achieving locking.

[0051] The contact area between the outer curved surface of the limiting plate 62 and the inner curved surface of the lock cap 5 should not be too small, otherwise it will not be possible to ensure that the iron part moves in a straight line in the lock cap, thus affecting the locking; at the same time, there is a gap between the limiting plate 62 and the lock cap 5, so that it will not cause resistance to the movement of the iron part 6.

[0052] Preferably, such as Figure 5 , Figure 6 and Figure 9As shown, the stepped structure includes a first upper step 411, a first lower step 412, a second upper step 21, and a second lower step 22. The first upper step 411 and the first lower step 412 are respectively located on the upper and lower parts of the plug-in 4, and the second upper step 21 and the second lower step 22 are respectively located on the upper and lower parts of the body 2. These four steps cooperate with each other to restrict the movement of the soap dispenser 1 in the vertical direction.

[0053] The second upper step 21, the second lower step 22, and the inner wall of the body 2 form a groove for installing the neck 101 of the soap dispenser 1.

[0054] Preferably, both the main body 2 and the plug-in 4 are hollow shell structures, which can reduce the weight of the overall structure and save materials;

[0055] The plug-in 4 includes a snap-fit ​​part 41, which has a semi-circular structure. The upper and lower parts of the inner wall of the snap-fit ​​part 41 form a first upper step 411 and a first lower step 412, respectively. Two vertical insert plates 42 are formed at the two ends of the snap-fit ​​part 41 near the body 2 in the horizontal direction. The two sides of the body 2 are provided with strip-shaped insertion slots 23 corresponding to the two vertical insert plates 42. The horizontal insert plate 43 is connected to the inner wall of one of the vertical insert plates 42. The body 2 is also provided with a first strip-shaped slot 24 for inserting the horizontal insert plate 43 on one side of the horizontal insert plate 43.

[0056] More preferably, the upper and lower parts on both sides of the body 2 are provided with second strip slots 25 that communicate with the strip slots 23, and the inner side of the vertical insert plate 42 extends upward with insert strips 421 that are adapted to the second strip slots 25.

[0057] The use of the second strip slot 25 and the insert 421 together can enhance the stability of the body 2 and the insert 4 in the vertical direction, prevent loosening or displacement, and improve the stability and reliability of the overall device.

[0058] Preferably, an L-shaped connecting plate 9 is integrally provided at the end of the lock cap 5, and the vertical part of the connecting plate 9 is fixedly connected to the cover plate 3.

[0059] Preferably, the cover plate 3 has a mounting hole 31 in the middle, and the cover plate 3 is installed by screws.

[0060] More preferably, such as Figure 6 , Figure 7 and Figure 9 As shown, the inner wall of the main body 2 has a through hole at the position directly in front of the mounting hole 31, and the through hole is used to install the cover 8. When installing the main body 2, first remove the cover 8, then install the main body 2 with the cover plate 3 on the wall to be installed, and fix the main body 2 with screws; after the main body 2 is fixed, fasten the cover 8 onto the main body 2.

[0061] In addition, a notch may be provided on one side of the cover 8 to make it easier for users to take the cover 8 out.

[0062] Preferably, the exterior of the body 2 is provided with an unlocking mark 10 corresponding to the position of the iron piece 6, which can facilitate the user to quickly and accurately place the unlocking device, thereby making the unlocking operation more convenient, achieving rapid positioning and improving efficiency.

[0063] Preferably, the body 2 and the cover plate 3 are fixed by ultrasonic welding, or they can be integrally formed.

[0064] Preferably, a ramp is provided at the contact position between the plug-in 4 and the iron part 6. Specifically, a ramp is provided at the contact position between the horizontal insert plate 43 and the second column 63. When the plug-in 4 needs to be inserted, the horizontal insert plate 43 can directly "push" the second column 63 and the entire iron part 6 upward. When the plug-in 4 is fully inserted, the iron part 6 falls into the second locking hole 431 of the horizontal insert plate 43 under the action of the spring 7, thereby achieving locking.

[0065] like Figure 8 As shown, the main body 2 is also provided with a drain outlet 26, which is used to drain the water after the water vapor condenses in time, reducing the risk of corrosion of metal parts.

[0066] The working principle of the above embodiments:

[0067] When it is necessary to install the soap dispenser 1, first fix the side of the main body 2 with the cover plate 3 to the wall to be installed with screws. Then, install the buckle 8 on the inner wall of the main body 2 (i.e. the side away from the cover plate 3). Next, align the neck part 101 of the soap dispenser 1 with the groove in the main body 2, and ensure that the upper and lower surfaces of the neck part 101 of the soap dispenser 1 are just engaged with the second upper step 21 and the second lower step 22 of the main body 2, respectively. Then, align the side of the plug 4 with the vertical insert plate 42 and the horizontal insert plate 43 with the neck part 101 of the soap dispenser 1, and insert it into the socket of the main body 2. The horizontal insert plate 43 will "push" the second column 63 and the entire iron piece 6 upward. When it is inserted into place, the iron piece 6 will fall smoothly into the second locking hole 431 of the horizontal insert plate 43 under the action of the spring 7, thereby achieving locking.

[0068] When it is necessary to replace the soap dispenser 1, simply align the unlocking device with the unlocking position on the outside of the main body 2. The iron part 6 will be magnetically moved upward, causing the second column 63 of the iron part 6 to disengage from the second lock hole 431 of the transverse insert plate 43 and be in the unlocked state. Then, pull out the plug 4 to remove the soap dispenser 1 from the main body 2 and replace it.

[0069] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way (as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features). For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described; these embodiments not explicitly written should also be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
