Fig. 1 shows a schematic overall structure of a toolbox lock according to an embodiment of the present invention, and fig. 4 shows a schematic structure of a lock body assembly in a locked position according to an embodiment of the present invention. For the purpose of illustration, the drawings show only the structures associated with embodiments of the invention.

Referring to fig. 1 and 4, an embodiment of the present invention provides a toolbox lock 100, which comprises a lock pin assembly 10, a lock body assembly 20 and a micro switch 30, which are coupled to each other. The microswitch 30 is used for communicating with a lamp body (not shown) arranged in the tool box (not shown) to control the on and off of the lamp body. The lock body assembly 20 includes a first plate 21 and a second plate 22 that are capable of relative movement. The relative movement of the first plate 21 and the second plate 22 includes the locked position of the locking-pin assembly 10 and the unlocked position of the unlocking-pin assembly 10. The micro switch 30 is located on a movement path of the relative movement of the first plate 21 and the second plate 22 to be in contact with or separated from the first plate 21 or the second plate 22 so as to be switched between the closed position and the open position. The above structure can integrate the micro switch 30 on the toolbox lock 100, and simultaneously realize the opening and closing of the toolbox lock 100 and the control of the micro switch 30. When the relative movement of the first plate 21 and the second plate 22 is controlled, the opening and closing of the toolbox lock 100, and thus the opening and closing of the toolbox, can be controlled by the connection or the disconnection of the first plate 21 and the second plate 22 with the locking pin assembly 10. And micro-gap switch 30 sets up on the motion route of first plate body 21 and second plate body 22, consequently, when first plate body 21 and second plate body 22 relative motion, can also control micro-gap switch 30 and switch between closed position and open-close position to realize opening and close of toolbox internal lamp body.

Fig. 2 shows a perspective view of a toolbox lock according to an embodiment of the present invention, and fig. 3 shows a front view of the toolbox lock according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to fig. 2 and 3, in some embodiments, the micro switch 30 includes a switch body 31 and a trigger assembly 32 disposed on the switch body 31. When the lock body assembly 20 is located at the unlocking position, the first plate 21 or the second plate 22 abuts against the trigger assembly 32, so that the micro switch 30 is located at the closing position. In the embodiment, an external force is applied to the first plate 21, and the second plate 22 follows the first plate 21 to move relatively under the action of the external force. When the second plate 22 moves from the locking position to the unlocking position, the second plate 22 abuts against the trigger assembly 32, so that the microswitch 30 is switched from the open position to the closed position. Thus, the microswitch 30 can be controlled to switch between the closed position and the open position during the movement of the second plate body 22 from the locking position to the unlocking position.

Further, the trigger assembly 32 includes a contact 321 and a spring 322. The contact 321 is disposed on the switch main body 31, one end of the spring 322 is fixed on the switch main body 31, the other end is suspended and spaced from the contact 321, and the spring 322 provides a holding force for holding the micro switch 30 at the off position. When the lock body assembly 20 is located at the unlocking position, the first plate body 21 or the second plate body 22 abuts against the suspended end of the elastic plate 322, so that the suspended end of the elastic plate 322 contacts and presses the contact 321, and the micro switch 30 is located at the closing position. Specifically, when the lock body assembly 20 is in the locked position, the resilient piece 322 does not contact the contact 321, and the micro switch 30 is in the off position. However, the resilient piece 322 has a certain elasticity due to its own material property. When the second plate 22 moves from the locking position to the unlocking position, the second plate 22 abuts against one suspended end of the elastic sheet 322 and continues to move under the action of external force until the elastic sheet 322 contacts and presses the contact 321, and at this time, the micro switch 30 is switched from the open position to the closed position. Adopt shell fragment 322 and contact 321 to mutually support, not only simple structure can significantly reduce moreover because of the structure itself takes place to damage the probability that micro-gap switch 30 became invalid, safe and reliable more.

In some embodiments, the micro switch 30 and the lock pin assembly 10 are located on opposite sides of the lock body assembly 20, and when the lock body assembly 20 is switched from the locking position to the unlocking position, the lock pin assembly 10 can move away from the micro switch 30 to disengage the lock body assembly 20. Therefore, the lock body assembly 20 can control the micro switch 30 and the lock pin assembly 10 independently and independently without influencing each other, and synchronous control of the micro switch 30 and the lock pin assembly 10 is realized.

Referring again to fig. 4, to facilitate the installation of the first plate 21 and the second plate 22, the lock body assembly 20 includes a mounting bracket 23. The mounting bracket 23 is provided with a rotating shaft, the first plate 21 and/or the second plate 22 are rotatably disposed on the mounting bracket 23 around the rotating shaft, and the micro switch 30 is fixed on the mounting bracket 23 and is disposed at an angle to the rotating shaft. Specifically, the lock body assembly 20 is fixedly connected to the tool box through the mounting bracket 23, and when the first plate 21 is rotated around the rotation shaft by an external force, the second plate 22 is rotated around the rotation shaft. The first plate body 21 and the second plate body 22 are rotatably arranged on the mounting bracket 23, so that the displacement amount of the first plate body 21 and the second plate body 22 during relative movement can be reduced, the overall size of the lock body assembly 20 is reduced, and the space is saved. In addition, the micro switch 30 is disposed at an angle to the rotation axis, i.e. the micro switch 30 is disposed on the mounting bracket 23 in an inclined manner. Therefore, the contact between the second plate 22 and the spring 322 is facilitated, and the displacement when the second plate 22 contacts the spring 322 is smaller.

Further, the rotation shafts include a first rotation shaft 231 and a second rotation shaft 232 which are parallel to each other. The first plate 21 is rotatably disposed on the mounting bracket 23 around a first rotating shaft 231, and the second plate 22 is rotatably disposed on the mounting bracket 23 around a second rotating shaft 232. The lock body assembly 20 includes a resilient member 24, and the resilient member 24 is connected between the first plate 21 and the second plate 22 to hold the first plate 21 and the second plate 22 in close proximity. Specifically, in the embodiment, the elastic element 24 is a spring, and two ends of the spring are respectively connected to the first plate 21 and the second plate 22, so as to drive the first plate 21 and the second plate 22 to move relatively and keep the first plate 21 and the second plate 22 close to each other. In a specific use, an external force is applied to the first plate 21 to rotate the first plate 21 around the first rotation axis 231. The second plate 22 is driven by the spring to rotate around the second shaft 232 in the same direction as the first plate 21. When the first board body 21 and the second board body 22 are separated from each other, the second board body 22 can continue to rotate under the driving of the spring, so that the second board body 22 abuts against the elastic sheet 322. In addition, when the lock body assembly 20 is switched from the unlocking position to the locking position, an external force is applied to the lock pin assembly 10, so that the lock pin assembly moves toward the lock body assembly 20 and is clamped between the first plate 21 and the second plate 22. In the process, the first plate 21 and the second plate 22 are kept close to each other by the spring, so that the first plate 21 and the second plate 22 can be restored from the unlocking position to the locking position under the pushing of the lock pin assembly 10.

Figure 5 shows a schematic structural view of a lock body assembly in an unlocked position in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention.

Referring to fig. 5, in some embodiments, one of the first plate 21 and the second plate 22 has ratchet grooves 221, and the other of the first plate 21 and the second plate 22 has ratchet teeth 211. The first plate 21 and the second plate 22 can be relatively rotated to engage or disengage the ratchet grooves 221 with or from the ratchet teeth 211, so as to switch between the locked position and the unlocked position. That is, the first plate 21 and the second plate 22 together form a ratchet structure, and when the lock body assembly 20 is located at the locking position, the first plate 21 and the second plate 22 are in an engaged state. When the lock body assembly 20 is located at the unlock position, the first plate 21 and the second plate 22 are separated. Thus, the first plate 21 and the second plate 22 can be engaged with or disengaged from each other to lock and unlock the latch assembly 10. In the embodiment, the first plate 21 has a ratchet 211, and the second plate 22 has a ratchet groove 221. When the lock body assembly 20 is located at the locking position, the ratchet 211 is engaged in the ratchet groove 221, so that the first plate 21 is engaged with the second plate 22. When the lock body assembly 20 is in the unlocked position, the ratchet teeth 211 disengage from the ratchet grooves 221 to separate the first plate 21 from the second plate 22.

Specifically, the second plate 22 has a first limiting portion 222 and a second limiting portion 223 spaced apart from each other along the movement direction of the lock pin assembly 10, and a locking space 224 for locking the lock pin assembly 10 is formed between the first limiting portion 222 and the second limiting portion 223. In this embodiment, the locking space 224 is configured as a circular arc-shaped groove having an opening. The locking pin assembly 10 includes a fixing plate 11 and a locking pin member 12 disposed on the fixing plate 11, wherein the locking pin member 12 is fixed to the tool box through the fixing plate 11. The outer profile of the latch member 12 matches the inner wall profile of the arcuate recess. When the lock body assembly 20 is located at the locking position, the locking pin 12 is engaged with the circular arc groove, and the opening position thereof is abutted against the first plate 21. At this time, in the moving direction of the lock pin assembly 10, the lock pin member 12 is commonly limited in the circular arc groove by the first limiting portion 222 and the second limiting portion 223. And the locking pin member 12 receives an abutting force from the first plate 21 in a direction perpendicular to the moving direction of the locking pin assembly 10. Thereby, locking of the lock pin assembly 10 in the locking space 224 is achieved. When the lock body assembly 20 is switched from the unlocking position to the locking position, the lock pin assembly 10 is forced to abut against the first limiting portion 222, thereby driving the second plate 22 to rotate until the second plate 22 and the first plate 21 are meshed again. The above structure can stably lock the lock pin assembly 10 in the locking space 224, and can restore the first plate 21 and the second plate 22 from the open position to the locking position under the pushing of the lock pin assembly 10. Simple structure and easy operation.

In addition, it should be noted that the toolbox lock 100 further includes a wire pulling assembly 40, and the wire pulling assembly 40 is connected to the first plate 21 and is controlled to drive the first plate 21 to rotate in a direction away from the second plate 22. In actual use, one end of the wire pulling assembly 40 is connected with the first plate 21, and the other end is arranged in the cab. Thus, the toolbox lock 100 can be conveniently and quickly controlled by pulling the wire assembly 40 in the cab. Specifically, when the wire pulling assembly 40 is pulled, the wire pulling assembly 40 drives the first plate body 21 to rotate around the first rotating shaft 231 toward a direction away from the second plate body 22, so that the first plate body 21 is separated from the second plate body 22. The second plate 22 is driven by the spring to rotate around the second rotation shaft 232 in the same direction as the first plate 21 until the locking pin assembly 10 is released from the locking space 224. At this time, the lid of the tool box is opened.

Referring to fig. 4 again, in the present embodiment, a contact protrusion 225 is disposed on a side of the second board 22 close to the micro switch 30, and the contact protrusion 225 is disposed to protrude toward the elastic sheet 322. The contact protrusion 225 contacts the spring 322 and applies a pressing force thereto when the second board 22 rotates following the first board 21. The spring piece 322 is pressed against the contact 321 by the pressing force, thereby switching the microswitch 30 from the open position to the closed position.

Referring again to fig. 1, in some embodiments, the lock body assembly 20 further includes a bumper 25, the bumper 25 being at least partially disposed within the lock space 224. When the latch member 12 is located in the locking space 224, the latch member 12 abuts on the bumper 25. When the locking pin 12 is inserted into the locking space 224, the buffer block 25 can provide a buffer for the locking pin 12, so as to prevent the locking pin 12 and the second plate 22 from generating rigid impact, thereby protecting the locking pin 12 and the second plate 22, and reducing noise generated during opening and closing of the toolbox.

It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, the first plate 21, the second plate 22 and the locking pin 12 are all made of plastic-coated structure. Thus, during use of the toolbox lock 100, friction between the first plate 21, the second plate 22, and the latch member 12 can be reduced, and noise generated when the respective structures are in contact can be greatly reduced.

Based on the same concept as the toolbox lock 100 described above, the present invention also provides a toolbox comprising a box body and a box cover, the toolbox comprising the toolbox lock 100 described above. Wherein, the lock body assembly 20 is arranged on the box body, and the lock pin assembly 10 is arranged on the box cover. When the lock pin assembly 20 and the lock body assembly 10 move relatively, the box cover and the box body are driven to move relatively. Specifically, when the lock body assembly 20 is located at the locking position, the lock pin assembly 10 is engaged with the locking space 224, so that the box cover and the box body are closed. When the lock body assembly 20 is in the unlocked position, the lock pin assembly 10 is disengaged from the locking space 224, thereby allowing the cover to be opened.

When the tool box is used, the tool box is arranged outside the cab, and when the first plate body 21 and the second plate body 22 are switched from the locking position to the unlocking position, the lock pin assembly 10 can be separated from the first plate body 21 and the second plate body 22 when the box cover is separated from the box body under the action of gravity.

Based on the same concept as the tool box described above, the invention also provides a vehicle comprising a tool box as described above.

When the lock is used, the lock body assembly 20 is fixed on the box body, and the lock pin assembly 10 is fixed on the box cover. When the lock body assembly 20 is located at the locking position, the pulling wire assembly 40 is pulled to drive the first plate body 21 to rotate around the first rotating shaft 231 in a direction away from the second plate body 22, and during the rotation process, the ratchet 211 is separated from the ratchet groove 221, so that the first plate body 21 is separated from the second plate body 22. The second plate 22 is driven by the spring to rotate around the second shaft 232 in the same direction as the first plate 21. Until the latch member 12 disengages from the latch space 224, thereby effecting opening of the lid. Meanwhile, in the rotation process of the second board 22, the contact protrusion 225 abuts against the suspended end of the elastic sheet 322, so that the suspended end of the elastic sheet 322 moves towards the side of the contact 321 until the elastic sheet 322 contacts and presses the contact 321. At this time, the microswitch 30 is switched from the open position to the closed position, and the lamp body in the tool box is turned on under the control of the microswitch 30, so that the tool box is illuminated.

The toolbox lock 100, the toolbox and the vehicle in the above embodiments have at least the following advantages:

1) the microswitch 30 is integrated on the lock body assembly 20, so that the opening of the box cover and the opening of the lamp body are realized simultaneously in the process of controlled rotation of the first plate body 21 and the second plate body 22, and the using process of the tool box is more convenient and safer;

2) the lock body assembly 20 is provided with the buffer block 25, so that the lock pin piece 12 can be abutted against the buffer block 25 when being clamped in the locking space 224, the rigid contact between the lock pin piece 12 and the second plate body 22 is reduced, and the noise in the opening and closing process of the tool box is reduced;
