Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of bathroom technology, and more specifically to a battery box with a quick-release structure and a toilet thereof. Background Technology

[0002] Chinese utility model patent CN215869624U discloses a quick-release structure for a battery compartment and a smart cover. The battery compartment is quickly installed in the battery box via a quick-release structure, and the battery box is installed on the toilet. The quick-release structure has sliding rods on both sides, which can engage with the locking parts on the battery box. By extending or retracting the sliding rods, the battery compartment can be engaged or disengaged from the locking parts on the battery box, thus enabling the installation and removal of the battery compartment from the battery box.

[0003] However, in the current battery box quick-release structure, the two sliding rods are set independently and extend and retract separately. This causes a synchronization problem in actual use. When the sliding rod is engaged in the locking part, one side may be engaged while the other side is not, leading to accidental locking and a poor user experience. Utility Model Content

[0004] To solve the above problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0005] A battery box with a quick-release structure includes a battery box and a battery compartment detachably mounted on the battery box. The battery box has first engaging portions on both sides, and the battery compartment has a mounting cavity. Two linkage rods are movably disposed within the mounting cavity corresponding to the first engaging portions on both sides. Each linkage rod has a second engaging portion that cooperates with the first engaging portion. The linkage rods are movable to a locked position and a released position. When the linkage rod is in the locked position, the second engaging portion engages with the cooperating first engaging portion. When the linkage rod is in the released position, the second engaging portion disengages from the cooperating first engaging portion. A linkage assembly is provided between the two linkage rods so that when one linkage rod is driven, the other linkage rod moves synchronously.

[0006] The present invention is further configured such that: openings are provided on both sides of the mounting cavity, and the openings are provided corresponding to the second snap-fit ​​portion on the same side; the openings are used to connect the mounting cavity and the battery box; when the linkage rod is in the locked position, the second snap-fit ​​portion protrudes from the opening; when the linkage rod is in the released position, the second snap-fit ​​portion retracts into the opening.

[0007] The present invention is further configured such that: the linkage assembly includes a gear disposed in the mounting cavity, two linkage rods are respectively disposed on both sides of the gear, the linkage rods are provided with racks that mesh with the gear, and the two linkage rods move in opposite directions along the same straight line.

[0008] The present invention is further configured such that: an abutment portion is provided in the mounting cavity, and an elastic element is provided between at least one of the linkage rods and the abutment portion; one end of the elastic element is connected to the linkage rod, and the other end abuts against the abutment portion; in the initial state, the elastic element pushes the second locking portion of the linkage rod out of the opening.

[0009] The present invention is further configured such that: a guide rod is provided on the linkage rod, the guide rod is parallel to the movement direction of the linkage rod, a guide groove is provided in the mounting cavity to cooperate with the guide rod, the guide rod is slidably disposed in the guide groove, and the elastic element is a spring sleeved on the guide rod.

[0010] The present invention is further configured such that: the second snap-fit ​​part is provided with an inclined surface, and when the battery compartment is inserted into the battery box, the inclined surface contacts the battery box, thereby pushing the second snap-fit ​​part into the opening.

[0011] The present invention is further configured such that: a pressure cover is provided inside the mounting cavity, a rotating shaft is provided in the middle of the gear, one end of the rotating shaft is rotatably connected to the mounting cavity, and the other end is rotatably connected to the pressure cover.

[0012] The present invention is further configured such that: a switch cover is movably disposed on the mounting cavity, a push rod protrudes from at least one of the linkage rods, a pressure rod protrudes from the switch cover toward the push rod, a cooperating guide surface is provided between the push rod and the pressure rod, and the switch cover pushes the push rod through the pressure rod, causing the linkage rod to move into the opening.

[0013] The present invention is further configured such that: at least one of the linkage rods is provided with a limiting part, and a limiting surface is provided in the mounting cavity; the limiting part is used to fit against the limiting surface to limit the movement distance of the linkage rod.

[0014] This utility model also proposes a smart toilet, including a toilet body, on which a battery box with a quick-release structure as described above is provided.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following advantages:

[0016] 1. This technical solution, by setting up a linkage component, ensures that when one linkage rod is compressed into the mounting cavity of the battery compartment, the other linkage rod is simultaneously retracted into the mounting cavity through gear linkage. Afterwards, one linkage rod resets and enters the bayonet, and the other linkage rod also simultaneously enters the bayonet. This ensures that the locking / releasing states of the linkage rods on both sides of the battery compartment are completely consistent, significantly improving the reliability of disassembly and assembly, making the operation smoother, and optimizing the user experience.

[0017] 2. A spring is installed so that after the battery compartment is removed from the battery box or installed in place, the spring can drive the corresponding linkage rod to automatically reset, and through gear linkage, the second locking parts on both sides protrude from the installation cavity opening; a guide rod is installed to guide the extension and retraction of the linkage rod, making the movement of the linkage rod more stable; at the same time, the spring is sleeved on the guide rod, which can accurately guide the extension and retraction direction of the spring and the movement trajectory of the linkage rod, preventing the spring from deviating or twisting when under force, ensuring that the force of the elastic element is stably transmitted to the linkage rod, and ensuring the accuracy and consistency of the locking end action.

[0018] 3. The switch cover pushes the pressure rod through the guide surface of the push rod, driving the two linkage rods to retract synchronously with a single point operation. The user can unlock the battery compartment by pressing the switch cover with one hand, and the guide surface converts the vertical pressing force into the horizontal movement of the linkage rod, making the operation effortless and convenient.

[0019] 4. This technical solution limits the range of motion of the linkage rod by setting a limiting part in the mounting cavity, thus better ensuring the effective operation of the gear and rack. Attached Figure Description

[0026] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this utility model described and shown in the accompanying drawings can typically be arranged and designed in various different configurations.

[0027] A battery box with a quick-release structure, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the device includes a battery box 1 and a battery compartment 3 detachably mounted on the battery box 1. First snap-fit ​​portions are provided on both sides of the battery box 1. The battery compartment 3 has a mounting cavity 5, within which two linkage rods movably mount corresponding to the first snap-fit ​​portions on both sides. The battery compartment 3 is slidably connected to the battery box 1. Openings 4 corresponding to the second snap-fit ​​portions on the same side are provided on both sides of the mounting cavity 5 of the battery compartment 3. The direction of movement of the battery compartment 3 is perpendicular to the direction of movement of the linkage rods 6. In this embodiment, the first snap-fit ​​portion is a bayonet 2 structure; the following descriptions will directly use bayonet 2.

[0028] The linkage rod 6 is provided with a second engaging part that cooperates with the bayonet 2. In this embodiment, the second engaging part is the engaging end 11, and the following description will directly use the engaging end 11. The linkage rod 6 can move between a locked position and a released position. When the linkage rod 6 is in the locked position, the engaging end 11 extends out and enters the bayonet 2 to engage with the bayonet 2, thereby fixing the battery compartment 3 and the battery box 1 relatively. When the linkage rod 6 is in the released position, the engaging end 11 retracts and separates from the bayonet 2, thereby separating the battery compartment 3.

[0029] The locking ends 11 of the two linkage rods 6 are respectively set to the openings 4. The openings 4 are used to connect the mounting cavity 5 and the battery box 1. When the linkage rods 6 are in the locked position, the locking ends 11 protrude from the openings 4. When the linkage rods 6 are in the released position, the locking ends 11 retract into the openings 4.

[0030] A linkage assembly 7 is provided between the two linkage rods 6 to ensure that the other linkage rod 6 moves synchronously when one linkage rod 6 is driven. Specifically, the linkage assembly 7 includes a gear 701 disposed within the mounting cavity 5, with the two linkage rods 6 respectively disposed on both sides of the gear 701. A rack 702 is provided on each linkage rod 6 to mesh with the gear 701. The two linkage rods 6 move in opposite directions along the same straight line, so that when one linkage rod 6 moves, the other linkage rod 6 extends or retracts synchronously via the gear 701, ensuring that the locking / unlocking states of the linkage rods 6 on both sides of the battery compartment 3 are completely consistent. The rack 702 is integrally formed on the linkage rod 6 body.

[0031] A pressure cap 13 is fixed inside the mounting cavity 5. A rotating shaft 14 is disposed in the middle of the gear 701. The direction of the rotating shaft 14 is perpendicular to the moving direction of the linkage rod 6. One end of the rotating shaft 14 is rotatably connected to the mounting cavity 5, and the other end is rotatably connected to the pressure cap 13. The pressure cap 13 is used to install and position the gear 701. The pressure cap 13 and the housing of the mounting cavity 5 clamp the gear 701 and the two linkage rods 6 in the middle. In this embodiment, the mounting fulcrum of the pressure cap 13 falls on the side of the linkage rod 6 away from the gear 701 in the mounting cavity 5, and does not interfere with the linkage rod 6.

[0032] An abutment portion 8 is provided inside the mounting cavity 5. At least one linkage rod 6 is connected to the abutment portion 8 by an elastic element 9. One end of the elastic element 9 is connected to the linkage rod 6, and the other end abuts against the abutment portion 8. In the initial state, the elastic element 9 pushes the locking end 11 of the linkage rod 6 out of the opening 4. When the linkage rod 6 retracts into the opening 4, it compresses the elastic element 9. When the opening 4 is aligned with the opening 4 on the battery box 1, or after the battery compartment is removed, the elastic element 9 rebounds, thereby automatically pushing the linkage rod 6 out of the opening 4.

[0033] A guide rod 10 is provided on the linkage rod 6. The guide rod 10 is parallel to the movement direction of the linkage rod 6. In this embodiment, the movement direction of the guide rod 10, the linkage rod 6, and the linkage rod 6 are all arranged in parallel. The elastic element 9 is specifically a spring sleeved on the guide rod 10. The guide rod 10 acts as a positioning spring and also provides precise guidance for the extension and contraction direction of the spring and the movement trajectory of the linkage rod 6. A spring can be provided on only one of the linkage rods 6. When the spring drives the linkage rod 6 to reset, the other linkage rod 6 will also be driven to reset synchronously through the gear 701. A guide groove 23 that cooperates with the guide rod 10 is also provided in the mounting cavity 5. The guide rod 10 can slide in the guide groove 23. In this embodiment, the abutment part 8 and the guide groove 23 are integrally formed.

[0034] The snap-fit ​​end 11 is located at the outer end of the linkage rod 6, and an inclined surface 12 is provided on the snap-fit ​​end 11, with the inclined surface 12 facing the battery box 1. When the battery compartment 3 is inserted into the battery box 1, the inclined surface 12 contacts the battery box 1, causing the linkage rod 6 to move inward automatically under force, thereby retracting the snap-fit ​​end 11 into the opening 4. After installation, that is, when the battery compartment 3 moves to the point where the opening 4 aligns with the snap-fit ​​2 on the battery box 1, the linkage rod 6 returns to its original position under the action of the elastic element 9, and the snap-fit ​​end 11 is snapped and fixed with the snap-fit ​​2.

[0035] A limiting part 19 is provided on the linkage rod 6, and a limiting surface 21 is provided inside the mounting cavity 5. The limiting part 19 is used to fit against the limiting surface 21 to limit the movement distance of the linkage rod 6. The limiting part 19 is a protrusion on the side wall of the linkage rod 6. When the linkage rod 6 moves inward a certain distance, the limiting surface 21 abuts against the limiting part 19, preventing the linkage rod 6 from moving further inward. In this embodiment, the right limiting surface 21 is provided on the guide groove 23 and is integrally formed with the guide groove 23.

[0036] A switch cover 15 is movably mounted on the mounting cavity 5. At least one linkage rod 6 has a protruding push rod 17. A pressure rod 16 protrudes from the switch cover 15 towards the push rod 17. A guide surface 18 is provided between the push rod 17 and the pressure rod 16. The switch cover 15 pushes the push rod 17 through the pressure rod 16, causing the linkage rod 6 to move into the opening 4. A rotating shaft hole 20 is opened in the middle of the switch cover 15, which is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 24 on the housing of the mounting cavity 5. The pressure rod 16 is located at one end of the switch cover 15 facing the linkage rod 6. When the end of the switch cover 15 with the pressure rod 16 is pressed, the switch cover 15 rotates downward. Under the action of the guide surface 18, the pressure rod 16 drives the linkage rod 6 to retract into the opening 4, at which time the battery compartment 3 can be removed.

[0037] This embodiment also proposes a smart toilet, such as... Figure 4 As shown, the toilet includes a toilet body 22, on which a battery box with a quick-release structure as described above is installed.

[0038] The working process of this utility model is as follows:

[0039] In the initial state, the linkage rods 6 on both sides of the mounting cavity 5 of the battery compartment 3 protrude from the openings 4 on both sides of the mounting cavity 5 under the action of the spring; the snap-fit ​​ends 11 of the linkage rods 6 on both sides have inclined surfaces 12. When the battery compartment 3 is installed in the battery box 1, the battery compartment 3 slides in along the battery box 1, and the inclined surfaces 12 are subjected to force, causing the linkage rods 6 to retract inward into the openings 4 (at least one side of the linkage rods 6 will move inward synchronously). When the battery compartment 3 is installed in place, the openings 4 are aligned with the snap-fit ​​2, the abutment force on the inclined surfaces 12 disappears, and the linkage rods 6 are reset under the action of the spring, and the snap-fit ​​ends 11 pass through the openings 4 and snap-fit ​​with the snap-fit ​​2.

[0040] During disassembly, press the switch cover 15. The pressure rod 16 on the switch cover 15 acts on the push rod 17, pushing the push rod 17 inward. The linkage rod 6 moves inward under the action of the push rod 17. The other linkage rod 6 moves inward in sync. The snap-fit ​​end 11 retracts into the opening 4. At this time, the battery compartment 3 can be removed.

Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the design concept of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0042] In the description of this utility model, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "set," "install," "connect," and "link" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
