[0035] The outer surface of the central controller 302 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the housing 1 , and the outer surface of the central controller 302 is electrically connected to the buzzer 304 via a wire.

[0036] Two sets of warning lights 301 are fixedly connected to the outer surface of the housing 1, and the outer surface of the housing 1 is also fixedly connected to the ventilation frame 4. A position sensor 303 detects vehicles approaching the housing 1. When a vehicle approaches, the position sensor 303 sends a signal to the central controller 302, which in turn activates the Wi-Fi module 305, allowing the Wi-Fi module 305 to connect to the vehicle's portable Wi-Fi. When the Wi-Fi module 305 successfully connects, the central controller 302 activates the electric telescopic rod 206 and servo motor 207, keeping the outer surface of the blocking frame 202 parallel to the ground, thereby facilitating vehicle parking. When the Wi-Fi module 305 fails to connect to the vehicle's Wi-Fi, the central controller 302 activates the buzzer 304, causing it to sound, alerting occupants that the parking space is reserved. The position sensor 303 can employ an ultrasonic sensor that uses the reflection of ultrasonic waves to measure the distance between the object and the sensor, thereby indirectly determining the object's location. This is prior art.

[0037] Reference Figures 1 to 4In one aspect of this embodiment, the blocking mechanism 2 also includes a servo motor 207 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the shell 1, the output shaft of the servo motor 207 passes through the outer surface of the shell 1 and is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the blocking frame 202, and the outer surface of the blocking frame 202 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 203, and the outer surface of the blocking frame 202 is fixedly connected to the reflective strip 208.

[0038] The other end of the rotating shaft 203 passes through the inner wall of the housing 1 and is fixedly connected to the limiting block 204 . The outer surface of the limiting block 204 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the housing 1 .

[0039] The outer surface of the housing 1 is fixedly connected to a limit plate 201, which is in contact with the outer surface of the blocking frame 202.

The output end of the electric telescopic rod 206 is fixedly connected to a movable plate 205, and the outer surface of the movable plate 205 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the limit block 204. When the electric telescopic rod 206 and servo motor 207 are activated, the output end of the electric telescopic rod 206 drives the movable plate 205 to slide, thereby releasing the limit on the limit block 204. The output shaft of the servo motor 207 then drives the blocking frame 202 to rotate, keeping the outer surface of the blocking frame 202 parallel to the ground, thereby facilitating vehicle parking.

[0042] All electrical equipment in this solution are powered by external power supplies.

[0043] Working principle: When in use, the position sensor 303 is used to detect the vehicle approaching the housing 1. When a vehicle approaches, the position sensor 303 sends a signal to the central controller 302, which in turn causes the central controller 302 to start the wifi module 305, so that the wifi module 305 can connect to the vehicle-mounted portable WiFi. When the wifi module 305 is successfully connected, the central controller 302 starts the electric telescopic rod 206 and the servo motor 207. The output end of the electric telescopic rod 206 drives the movable plate 205 to slide, which facilitates the release of the limit block 204. Position, and then the output shaft of the servo motor 207 drives the blocking frame 202 to rotate, so that the outer surface of the blocking frame 202 remains parallel to the ground, which facilitates parking of the vehicle. When the wifi module 305 fails to connect to the on-board WiFi, the central controller 302 starts the buzzer 304, making the buzzer 304 sound, which is used to warn people in the car that this parking space is a dedicated parking space and parking is prohibited. The ventilation frame 4 facilitates charging of the battery 701, which reduces the frequency of replacing the battery 701. The sliding frame 7 facilitates replacement of the battery 701.
