Abstract

The present invention relates to an electronic lock (100) and a control method thereof. The electronic lock (100) includes a lock hook (110), a lock hook (120), a locking bullet (140), an unlocking-locking mechanism (210, 220), a locking bullet (200) and an unlocking-locking detection mechanism; the lock hook (120) is provided on the lock hook (110); a locking groove (121) is formed inside an arm of the lock hook (120); one end of the locking bullet (200) is abutted against the lock hook (110), and the other end of the locking bullet (200) is abutted against a lower side of a long arm of the lock hook (120); by applying a pushing force to the lock hook (120) from an outside of the lock hook (110), the locking bullet (140) can be pressed between the locking groove (121) and the unlocking-locking mechanism (210, 220) in a locked state of the electronic lock (100); the lock hook (120) can move within a small range in an action direction of the lock hook (120) in the locked state of the electronic lock (100), to remove a pressing force applied by the locking bullet (200) to the unlocking-locking mechanism (210, 220) via the lock hook (120) and the locking bullet (140); and when the unlocking-locking detection mechanism detects the small-range movement of the lock hook (120), the unlocking-locking mechanism (210, 220) removes a limit of the locking bullet (140) to the lock hook (120). The electronic lock (100) provided by the embodiments of the present invention reduces a working load of a motor, lowers the power consumption of the electronic lock (100) and decreases the wear of a part.
