Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of computer technologies, and particularly to a degaussing device, a degaussing method, an electronic device, a computer-readable storage medium, and a computer program product. Background Art

[0002] Since the magnetic stripe information of traditional magnetic stripe cards is easily copied, there are security risks, and it is necessary to recycle old magnetic stripe cards for destruction. Usually, the process of recycling magnetic stripe cards needs to be completed at the bank counter, and the bank destroys the magnetic stripe cards under the supervision of customers. The common method for degaussing magnetic stripe cards is to manually cut the magnetic stripe card into two segments with scissors after recycling the magnetic stripe card. However, the method of cutting the card causes the magnetic stripe information of the magnetic stripe card to not be degaussed in time, and there is a risk of subsequent splicing and replication. In addition, during the destruction of magnetic stripe cards, specific destruction information cannot be recorded in the bank system. The destruction information includes the destroyer teller, the teller's operation authority, the card number being destroyed, the date and time, the destruction method, etc., resulting in the inability to accurately know the destruction information of magnetic stripe cards during subsequent security audits. It can be seen that the manual degaussing of magnetic stripe cards in related technologies not only has the problem of high cost, but also has the problem of low degaussing efficiency.

[0048] Figure 1 Schematically shows a structural diagram of a degaussing device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0049] As Figure 1 shown, the degaussing device 100 of the embodiment of the present disclosure, for example, includes a body 110, a limiting structure 120, and a degaussing mechanism 130.

[0050] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the body 110, for example, includes an accommodation space 110A. The limiting structure 120 is, for example, located in the accommodation space 110A, and the degaussing mechanism 130 is, for example, disposed in the body 110 and the degaussing mechanism 130 is disposed opposite to the limiting structure 120.

[0051] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the limiting structure 120 is configured to limit a magnetic stripe card located in the accommodation space 110A. For example, a card slot 121 is formed by mutual cooperation between the limiting structure 120 and the body 110, and the card slot 121 can be, for example, a part of the accommodation space 110A. The card slot 121 is, for example, used to accommodate the magnetic stripe card.

[0052] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the degaussing mechanism 130 is, for example, disposed on the body 110, for example, disposed near the limiting structure 120 in the body 110, so that the degaussing mechanism 130 is used to degauss the magnetic stripe card.

[0053] It can be understood that, compared with the method of manually cutting the card in the related art, the embodiments of the present disclosure can automatically demagnetize the magnetic stripe card through a demagnetization device, so as to prevent the information on the magnetic stripe card from being leaked. That is, the automatic demagnetization method of the embodiments of the present disclosure replaces the method of manually cutting the card, improving the demagnetization efficiency of the magnetic stripe card, and the demagnetization device of the present disclosure is easy to operate and has universality.

[0054] Figure 2 Schematically shows a structural diagram of a demagnetization device according to another embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0055] As Figure 2 shown, the demagnetization device 100 of the embodiments of the present disclosure further includes a housing cover 140 and a rotating shaft 150 in addition to the main body 110, the limiting structure 120, and the demagnetization mechanism 130.

[0056] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the main body 110 includes a first-side sub-main body 111, a second-side sub-main body 112, and an intermediate sub-main body 113. The first-side sub-main body 111 and the second-side sub-main body 112 are oppositely disposed on both sides of the accommodation space 110A. The intermediate sub-main body 113 is located between the first-side sub-main body 111 and the second-side sub-main body 112 and is connected to the first-side sub-main body 111 and the second-side sub-main body 112.

[0057] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the housing cover 140 is rotatably connected to the intermediate sub-main body 113, and the housing cover 140 is configured to rotate along a first direction A to block the accommodation space 110A, or rotate along a second direction B to move away from the accommodation space 110A. Wherein, the first direction A is, for example, the clockwise direction, and the second direction B is, for example, the counterclockwise direction.

[0058] In the embodiments of the present disclosure, the demagnetization device 100 further includes a rotating shaft 150. The rotating shaft 150 is connected to the intermediate sub-main body 113 and the housing cover 140, and the housing cover 140 is configured to rotate relative to the intermediate sub-main body 113 through the rotating shaft 150.

[0059] In one example, the rotating shaft 150 can be fixed to the intermediate sub-main body 113, and the housing cover 140 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 150, and the housing cover 140 can rotate relative to the rotating shaft 150.

[0060] In another example, the rotating shaft 150 can be fixed to the housing cover 140, and the rotating shaft 150 is rotatably connected to the intermediate sub-main body 113, and the housing cover 140 can rotate relative to the intermediate sub-main body 113 together with the rotating shaft 150.

[0061] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the outer shell cover 140 is formed in an "L" shape at a 90-degree angle by, for example, two inner metal layers and an outer plastic layer. When demagnetization starts, the outer shell cover 140 is pulled down in the clockwise direction to block the accommodation space, so as to avoid magnetizing other cards during demagnetization. In addition, the outer shell cover 140 is connected to the rotating shaft 150 such that the outer shell cover 140 can rotate relative to the main body, improving the ease of operation.

[0062] Figure 3 Schematically shows a structural diagram of a demagnetization device according to another embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0063] As Figure 3 shown, in addition to including the main body 110, the limiting structure 120, the demagnetization mechanism 130, the outer shell cover 140, and the rotating shaft 150, the demagnetization device 100 of the embodiment of the present disclosure may further include a camera device 160, a seal structure 170, a fingerprint recognition button 180, a lighting device 190, a display screen 1100, and a sound amplifying device 1110.

[0064] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the camera device 160 is disposed, for example, on the first side sub-body. Specifically, the camera device 160 is disposed in the first side sub-body and close to the accommodation space, so that the camera device 160 can obtain an image of the magnetic stripe card in the direction of the limiting structure. Among them, the camera device 160 may be a camera.

[0065] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the seal structure 170 is disposed, for example, on the second side sub-body, and the seal structure 170 is configured to stamp the magnetic stripe card. In one example, the demagnetization mechanism may be a hollow structure, and the seal structure 170 may be disposed in the hollow structure of the demagnetization mechanism.

[0066] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the seal structure 170 may include a telescopic member and a seal body. The telescopic member can, for example, telescopically move from the second side sub-body towards the accommodation space to drive the seal body to move. The seal body is, for example, used to stamp the magnetic stripe card.

[0067] Specifically, the telescopic member includes, for example, a first end and a second end. The first end of the telescopic member is disposed on the second side sub-body, and the seal body is connected to the second end of the telescopic member. The telescopic member is configured to drive the seal body to approach or move away from the limiting structure. So that when it is necessary to stamp the magnetic stripe card, the telescopic member drives the seal body to move close to the limiting structure and stamp on the magnetic stripe card. After stamping is completed, the telescopic member drives the seal body to move away from the limiting structure to return to the second side sub-body.

[0068] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, a magnetic stripe card generally has a front side and a back side, and the front side generally has card number information. When the magnetic stripe card is placed in the card slot formed by the limiting structure, the front side with the card number information faces, for example, the imaging device located on the first side sub-body, and the back side of the magnetic stripe card faces, for example, the stamping structure located on the second side sub-body. The imaging device can acquire an image of the front side of the magnetic stripe card and analyze the image to obtain the card number information. Specifically, the extraction of the card number features can be completed according to steps such as image segmentation, feature extraction and template construction, and character recognition, and then converted into data information. Then, the image of the magnetic stripe card and the card number information are transmitted to the memory for associated storage.

[0069] The stamping structure 170 can stamp on the back side of the magnetic stripe card after the magnetic stripe card is demagnetized. The stamping mark can be, for example, "demagnetized", indicating that the demagnetization operation of the magnetic stripe card has been completed by the demagnetization device. The stamping mark "demagnetized" can be used to distinguish it from other normal non-demagnetized magnetic stripe cards. The specific stamping mark reference Figure 4 is shown as Figure 4 FIG. schematically shows a stamping schematic diagram according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, where the magnetic stripe card includes a front side 410 and a back side 420.

[0070] Continuing to refer to Figure 3 , the fingerprint recognition button 180 is, for example, arranged on the main body, specifically on the second side sub-body. The fingerprint recognition button 180 is, for example, used to receive the demagnetization instruction of the user and collect the fingerprint information of the user. Specifically, the user can press the fingerprint recognition button 180 to issue a demagnetization instruction. The fingerprint recognition button 180 can also collect the fingerprint information of the user and determine whether the user has the permission to demagnetize according to the fingerprint information.

[0071] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the lighting device 190 is arranged on the first side sub-body. For example, the lighting device 190 includes a plurality of fill lights, and the plurality of fill lights are, for example, arranged near the accommodation space in the first side sub-body. The light emitted by the plurality of fill lights is, for example, directed towards the card slot to provide fill light for the magnetic stripe card located in the card slot, thereby improving the image effect of the image acquired by the imaging device.

[0072] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the display screen 1100 is, for example, arranged on the second side sub-body. The display screen 1100 is, for example, used to display the information of each stage during the demagnetization process. For example, it is used to display the state during demagnetization, the image collected by the imaging device, the state when the stamping device completes stamping, and can also be used to display the final completion state of demagnetization.

[0073] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the sound amplification device 1110 is disposed on the first side sub-body, for example, and the sound amplification device 1110 may include a speaker. The sound amplification device 1110 is used to prompt the user about the completion of each operation step according to the demagnetization device in different operation states, or to prompt the user to perform the next operation according to the prompt information. For example, after the fingerprint authentication of the user is successful, the user is prompted to pull down the outer shell cover in the clockwise direction to block the accommodation space. Or it is used to prompt the user to perform fingerprint entry when it is determined that the user's fingerprint authentication fails. It can also be used to prompt the user that the entire demagnetization process has been completed after stamping the magnetic stripe card.

[0074] In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the demagnetization device may further include a memory and a processor

[0075] Wherein, the processor is electrically connected to at least the fingerprint recognition button, the demagnetization mechanism, and the memory, for example. The processor is configured to receive instructions from the fingerprint recognition button and control the demagnetization mechanism to demagnetize the magnetic stripe card based on the instructions. The memory is configured to store the images acquired by the imaging device, and the memory can also be used to store the fingerprints of the user, the card number information of the magnetic stripe card obtained by identifying the images, and so on.

[0076] As Figure 3 shown, the demagnetization device of the embodiment of the present disclosure further includes a main power switch 1120, a data interface 1130, a power cord 1140, and a power indicator 1150, for example.

[0077] The power cord 1140 is used to connect to an external power source and for internal connection to the power source of the demagnetization device, and is connected to each electronic component through a bus to be responsible for power supply. The power indicator 1150 is used to indicate whether the power is started normally. When the main power switch 1120 is closed, the voltage indicator shows green, indicating that the demagnetization device is in a normal working state. The main power switch 1120 is, for example, the main switch that controls the power of the entire demagnetization device. After the power cord 1140 is connected to the power source, press the main power switch 1120, and at this time the power indicator 1150 lights up, then the entire demagnetization device is in an operable state.

[0078] Among them, the data interface 1130 is used to connect to a bank operation terminal through this data interface 1130 and a data cable when the demagnetization device is in an offline state, so as to import the demagnetization information stored in the memory of the demagnetization device into the bank system.

[0079] Through the embodiments of the present disclosure, the demagnetization operation after recycling magnetic stripe cards is upgraded from random to being allowed only after fingerprint-associated authentication, reducing the operational risk of destroying magnetic stripe cards within the bank. Additionally, the demagnetization device demagnetizes magnetic stripe cards through an automatic demagnetization function, replacing manual cutting operations, and improving the usability of the magnetic stripe card destruction operation. Moreover, by completely recording the demagnetization operation, such as generally using voice prompts to inform customers that the demagnetization has been completed, concerns of customers about the reuse of old cards are eliminated. Furthermore, by automatically identifying the card number information of the magnetic stripe card to be demagnetized and simultaneously recording the complete image information of the magnetic stripe card, the user information of the operation for demagnetization, the operation date and time, etc., the relevant relationships meet the bank supervision requirements and facilitate post-event auditing.

[0080] Figure 5 Schematically shows the internal system structure diagram of the demagnetization device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0081] As Figure 5 shown, the internal structure of the demagnetization device 500 includes: a communication module 501, a storage module 502, a display module 503, a seal module 504, a voice prompt module 505, a demagnetization mechanism module 506, a fingerprint recognition module 507, a card photographing and recognition module 508, a power supply 509, and a main control processor 510.

[0082] The communication module 501 is responsible for data interaction with the bank operation terminal through wired or wireless means. The wireless means may include, but are not limited to, WIFI, Bluetooth, NFC, etc. The wired means may be connecting to the bank operation terminal through a data interface 1130.

[0083] The storage module 502 is responsible for storing data and performing data interaction with the main control processor 510, the fingerprint recognition module 507, and the card photographing and recognition module 508. The storage module 502 includes a high-speed random access memory and may also include a non-volatile memory. Such as one or more magnetic storage devices, flash memory, or other non-volatile solid-state memories. It can be used to store software programs, user-predefined touch trajectory data, user biometrics, and predefined operation instruction sets.

[0084] The display module 503 is used to receive the display operation instructions sent by the main control processor and display the operation instructions for each step on the screen.

[0085] The seal module 504 is mainly used to receive the instructions sent by the processor and transmit them to the seal device to print the "demagnetized" mark on the magnetic stripe card through the seal device.

[0086] The voice prompt module 505 is used to receive the prompt voice instructions for each operation step sent by the processor and convert the instructions into executable information and transmit it to the speaker to complete the broadcast of the prompt information.

[0087] The degaussing mechanism module 506 is connected to the degaussing mechanism 16, receives the start degaussing operation instruction issued by the processor, and completes the degaussing process of the magnetic stripe card.

[0088] The fingerprint recognition module 507 is mainly used to receive the instructions issued by the processor and complete the operations according to the instructions. The fingerprint recognition module 507 is responsible for collecting the fingerprint biometric information of the new teller, connecting to the storage module 502 through the data bus, storing the newly entered fingerprints in the memory, and using this as a basis to determine whether the teller has the permission to perform the degaussing operation. If the teller has completed the information authentication, when performing the degaussing operation, it will first compare the collected fingerprint information with the authenticated information in the memory. If the comparison is successful, the next operation is allowed; otherwise, a failure processing instruction is returned.

[0089] The card photographing and recognition module 508 is mainly used to receive the instructions issued by the processor and complete the operations of turning on the fill light and the photographing camera taking pictures according to the instructions. The card photographing and recognition module 508 consists of four fill lights and a card photographing and recognition camera, which is used to take the image information of the magnetic stripe card fixed in the card slot, analyze the image information to extract the card number information, and transmit it to the storage module 502 for subsequent associated information comparison processing.

[0090] The power supply 509 is connected to each electronic component through the bus and is responsible for power supply.

[0091] The master control processor 510 is the master control unit of the entire degaussing device, responsible for running various instructions, executing various functions, and performing data processing. It is connected to the communication module 501, the storage module 502, the display module 503, the seal module 504, the voice prompt module 505, the degaussing mechanism module 506, the fingerprint recognition module 507, the card photographing and recognition module 508, and the power supply 509. During the execution of the entire degaussing operation process, when the fingerprint recognition module 507 transmits the teller login information to the storage module 502, the card photographing and recognition module 508 transmits the card number information to the storage module 502, and the seal module 504 completes the stamping, the master control processor 510 reads the information in the storage module 502, including the current operating teller, date, time, and card number, combines the destruction method (degaussing), forms an association relationship table (as shown in Table 1), and stores the association relationship in the offline import data storage area of the storage module 502 for subsequent offline batch import and reading by the bank system. When performing the offline batch import data operation, the master control processor 510 automatically conducts wired (through the data interface 1130) or wireless connection with the bank operation terminal through the communication module 501 for data interaction, and transmits the offline import data storage area to the bank operation terminal.

[0094] Figure 6 Schematically shows a structural diagram of a seal module according to an embodiment of the present disclosure. As Figure 6 shown, the seal module 504 includes a data transmission interface sub-module 601, a received seal instruction sub-module 602, a start seal processing sub-module 603, and a completed seal processing sub-module 604.

[0095] The data transmission interface sub-module 601 is responsible for transmitting instructions between the seal module and its master control processor 510, and also performs data interaction processing, and is responsible for connecting to each of the received seal instruction sub-module 602, the start seal processing sub-module 603, and the completed seal processing sub-module 604.

[0096] The received seal instruction sub-module 602 is used to receive instructions from the master control processor 510, and after interpretation, starts the next operation.

[0097] After receiving the start instruction, the start seal processing sub-module 603 drives the seal in the seal device 17 to push out of the protective housing and performs the seal processing. After the seal processing is completed, the seal is automatically retracted into the seal device.

[0098] After receiving the completion instruction of the start seal processing sub-module 603, the completed seal processing sub-module 604 returns the completion status to the master control processor 510 through the data transmission interface sub-module 601.

[0099] Figure 7 Schematically shows a structural diagram of a fingerprint recognition module according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0100] As Figure 7 shown, the fingerprint recognition module 507 includes a data transmission interface sub-module 701, a fingerprint input sub-module 702, a fingerprint recognition sub-module 703, a fingerprint authentication sub-module 704, and a fingerprint storage sub-module 705.

[0101] The data transmission interface sub-module 701 is responsible for transmitting instructions between the fingerprint recognition module and its master control processor 510, and also performs data interaction processing, and is responsible for connecting to each of the fingerprint input sub-module 702, the fingerprint recognition sub-module 703, the fingerprint authentication sub-module 704, and the fingerprint storage sub-module 705.

[0102] The fingerprint entry sub-module 702 is responsible for entering and registering the fingerprint biometric information collected by the 14 fingerprint recognition buttons in the fingerprint recognition sub-module 703. When a teller first uses the degaussing device, the teller needs to enter the fingerprint information through the fingerprint recognition button. The fingerprint information entry is divided into two steps. First, according to the fingerprint entry sub-module 702, the voice prompt module 505 is driven to prompt the teller for the first entry. At this time, the fingerprint is temporarily stored in the fingerprint storage sub-module 705 through the data transmission interface sub-module 701. After the first entry is completed, the voice prompt module 505 is driven to prompt the teller to repeat the fingerprint entry and match whether it is the same as the fingerprint entered for the first time. If it is the same, the fingerprint is transmitted to the fingerprint storage sub-module 705, and an instruction is sent to the main control processor 510 to drive the fingerprint storage sub-module 705 to transmit the fingerprint information to the storage module 502.

[0103] The fingerprint recognition sub-module 703 is responsible for determining whether there is fingerprint biometric information entered through the 14 fingerprint recognition buttons. If there is an entry, the entered information is transferred to the fingerprint authentication sub-module 704 through the data transmission interface sub-module 701.

[0104] The fingerprint authentication sub-module 704 is responsible for receiving the instruction information of the fingerprint recognition sub-module 703 through the data transmission interface sub-module 701 and communicating with the main control processor 510. When receiving the fingerprint information entry, it obtains the information that has been authenticated and stored in the storage module 502 and compares whether it belongs to the existing information. If it is inconsistent, an instruction is transmitted to the main control processor 510 through the data transmission interface sub-module 701, and the teller is prompted by the voice prompt module 505 whether to perform the entry process. At this time, if the teller presses the 14 fingerprint recognition buttons, the fingerprint entry process is started and transferred to the fingerprint entry sub-module 702 for entry; if the collected fingerprint information is consistent with the existing information after comparison, the teller is prompted by the voice prompt module 505 that the authentication is passed, and at the same time, the teller login information is transmitted to the fingerprint storage sub-module 705, and an instruction is sent to the main control processor 510 to drive the fingerprint storage sub-module 705 to transmit the fingerprint information to the storage module 502.

[0105] The fingerprint storage sub-module 705 is responsible for temporarily storing the fingerprint biometric information entered for the first time and the fingerprint biometric information for secondary confirmation by the fingerprint entry sub-module 702, and is also used to store the teller authentication information transmitted by the fingerprint authentication sub-module 704.

[0106] Figure 8 The structural diagram of the card photographing and recognition module according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is schematically shown.

[0107] As Figure 8As shown, the card photograph recognition module 508 includes a data transmission interface sub-module 801, a supplementary light sub-module 802, a photographing sub-module 803, a card number analysis sub-module 804, and a data processing sub-module 805.

[0108] The data transmission interface sub-module 801 is responsible for transmitting instructions between the fingerprint recognition module and its master control processor 510, and also performs data interaction processing. It is responsible for connecting to the supplementary light sub-module 802, the photographing sub-module 803, the card number analysis sub-module 804, and the data processing sub-module 805.

[0109] The supplementary light sub-module 802 is responsible for connecting to the master control processor 510 through the data transmission interface sub-module 801, receiving the start module instruction from the master control processor 510, driving multiple supplementary lights to turn on, providing a light source for photographing the card photograph recognition camera, and sending the ready instruction to the photographing sub-module 803 through the data transmission interface sub-module 801.

[0110] The photographing sub-module 803 is responsible for connecting to the master control processor 510 through the data transmission interface sub-module 801, receiving the ready instruction from the supplementary light sub-module 802. When all the supplementary lights are ready, it drives the card photograph recognition camera to be ready and completes the photographing. At the same time, it sends the photographing completion instruction to the card number analysis sub-module 804 through the data transmission interface sub-module 801.

[0111] The card number analysis sub-module 804 is responsible for connecting to the master control processor 510 through the data transmission interface sub-module 801, receiving the instruction from the photographing sub-module 803. If the photographing is completed, it analyzes the image, and through the automatic recognition technology of the image card number features, similar to the vehicle license plate recognition technology, completes the extraction of the card number features according to steps such as image segmentation, feature extraction, template construction, and character recognition, and converts them into data information. Then it associates and transmits the image and the card number information to the data processing sub-module 805.

[0112] The data processing sub-module 805 is responsible for connecting to the master control processor 510 through the data transmission interface sub-module 801, receiving the instruction from the card number analysis sub-module 804, performing an association comparison process on the card number information and the current image information, and at the same time transmitting the processed information to the storage module 502 through the data transmission interface sub-module 801.

[0113] Figure 9 Schematically shows a flowchart of a degaussing method according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0114] As Figure 9 shown, the degaussing method of the embodiment of the present disclosure is, for example, executed by a degaussing device, and specifically can be executed by a processor in the degaussing device. The method may include operation S910 to operation S980.

[0115] In operation S910, at least one fingerprint information collected by the fingerprint recognition button is stored as preset fingerprint information in the memory. The at least one fingerprint information is, for example, the fingerprint information of a user with demagnetization permission. The users with demagnetization permission include bank tellers. By obtaining their fingerprint information and storing it as preset fingerprint information, it is convenient to determine whether the current user performing the demagnetization operation has demagnetization permission based on the preset fingerprint information during subsequent demagnetization.

[0116] In operation S920, a demagnetization instruction is obtained. Among them, the demagnetization instruction is, for example, generated by the user pressing the fingerprint recognition button, and the demagnetization instruction is obtained by the processor of the demagnetization device, for example.

[0117] In operation S930, it is determined whether the current fingerprint information in the demagnetization instruction is preset fingerprint information. If so, operation S540 is executed; if not, the process ends.

[0118] In operation S940, when the current fingerprint information is preset fingerprint information, the demagnetization mechanism is controlled to demagnetize the magnetic stripe card.

[0119] In operation S950, based on the demagnetization instruction, the imaging device is controlled to obtain an image of the magnetic stripe card.

[0120] In operation S960, the image is processed to obtain the card number information of the magnetic stripe card.

[0121] In operation S970, the card number information and the image are associated and stored in the memory.

[0122] For example, the card number information is obtained by analyzing the image through an automatic recognition technology. Specifically, the extraction of the card number features can be completed according to steps such as image segmentation, feature extraction and template construction, and character recognition, and then converted into data information. Then, the image of the magnetic stripe card and the card number information are transmitted to the memory together for associated storage.

[0123] In operation S980, after the magnetic stripe card is demagnetized, the stamping device is controlled to stamp the magnetic stripe card.

[0124] Figure 10 A flowchart of the internal data processing method of the stamping module of the demagnetization device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is schematically shown.

[0125] As Figure 10 shown, the internal data processing method of the stamping module of the demagnetization device includes, for example, operation S1001 to operation S1006. The method of the embodiment of the present disclosure will be described below in conjunction with Figure 5 the structure.

[0126] In operation S1001, the seal module 504 starts the operation according to the operating user, receives the start instruction, and starts the seal process. At this time, the seal device is ready.

[0127] In operation S1002, the seal module 504 interprets the start instruction transmitted by the main control processor 510 and received.

[0128] In operation S1003, it is judged whether the instruction is received successfully. If successful, the next operation S1004 is continued; otherwise, it returns to operation S1002.

[0129] In operation S1004, the stamping processing device is started, the seal in the seal device is driven to push out of the protective housing, and the stamping process is implemented.

[0130] In operation S1005, if the stamping process is successful, operation S1006 is continued; otherwise, it returns to operation S1002.

[0131] In operation S1006, the stamping process is completed. At the same time, the completion processing instruction is returned to the main control processor 510 through the data transmission interface, and an instruction is sent to the display module 503 through the main control processor 510 to display that the stamping process has been completed on the liquid crystal display screen, and the process ends.

[0132] Figure 11 The method flow chart of the internal data processing of the degaussing device fingerprint recognition module according to the embodiment of the present disclosure is schematically shown.

[0133] As Figure 11 shown, the method of the internal data processing of the degaussing device fingerprint recognition module includes, for example, operations S1101 to S1108. The following combines Figure 5 and Figure 7 structures to illustrate the method of the embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0134] In operation S1101, the fingerprint recognition module 507 starts the operation according to the operating user, receives the start instruction, and starts the fingerprint recognition process. At this time, the fingerprint recognition button is ready.

[0135] In operation S1102, the biometric recognition engine in the fingerprint recognition button judges whether there is teller fingerprint information. If so, the fingerprint biometric information is temporarily stored.

[0136] In operation S1103, the fingerprint recognition module 507 starts the fingerprint authentication sub-module 704 to perform authentication processing on the collected fingerprint information.

[0137] In operation S1104, the fingerprint recognition module 507 is connected to the main control processor 510 through the data transmission interface sub-module 701, and sends a request to obtain the existing fingerprint biometric information in the storage module 502, and compares the obtained fingerprint biometric information with the currently uploaded fingerprint information.

[0138] In operation S1105, if the comparison is consistent, the uploaded fingerprint biometric information is transmitted to the fingerprint storage sub-module 705, and at the same time, the teller is prompted that the authentication is passed through the voice prompt module 505; if the comparison is inconsistent, the process proceeds to step S507 to start the fingerprint entry sub-module 702 for processing.

[0139] In operation S1106, after the authentication process is completed, for the fingerprint information with consistent comparison, a command is sent to the main control processor 510 to drive the fingerprint storage sub-module 705 to transmit the fingerprint information to the storage module 502, and a command is sent to the display module 503 through the main control processor 510 to display on the liquid crystal display screen that the authentication process has been completed.

[0140] In operation S1107, the fingerprint entry sub-module 702 is started to receive the fingerprint biometric information uploaded by the fingerprint recognition sub-module 703. The entry is completed in two steps. After the first entry, the fingerprint information is temporarily stored in the fingerprint storage sub-module 705. After the second confirmation, the fingerprint information uploaded twice is compared to determine whether they are consistent. If they are consistent, the fingerprint information is transmitted to the fingerprint storage sub-module 705.

[0141] In operation S1108, the fingerprint information transmitted by the fingerprint entry sub-module 702 is received, and a command is sent to the main control processor 510 through the data transmission interface sub-module 701 to drive the fingerprint storage sub-module 705 to transmit the fingerprint information to the storage module 502, and a command is sent to the display module 503 through the main control processor 510 to display on the liquid crystal display screen that the entry process has been completed.

[0142] Figure 12 Schematically shows a flowchart of the internal data processing method of the demagnetization device card photographing and recognition module according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0143] As Figure 12 shown, the internal data processing method of the demagnetization device card photographing and recognition module, for example, includes operations S1201 to S1208. The following will describe the method of the embodiment of the present disclosure in conjunction with Figure 5 and Figure 8 the structure.

[0144] In operation S1201, according to the operation user's start operation, the card photographing and recognition module 508 receives a start command and starts the fingerprint recognition process. At this time, multiple fill lights and the card photographing and recognition camera are ready.

[0145] In operation S1202, turn on the fill light, including turning on four fill lights simultaneously to provide light source for taking the front image of the magnetic stripe card.

[0146] In operation S1203, start the card photographing and identifying camera to prepare for taking the front image of the magnetic stripe card.

[0147] In operation S1204, determine whether the fill light is ready. If it is ready, proceed to operation S1205; otherwise, return to step S1202.

[0148] In operation S1205, turn on the card photographing and identifying camera to take the front image of the magnetic stripe card, and at the same time send the image information to the card number analysis sub-module 804 through the data transmission interface sub-module 801.

[0149] In operation S1206, start the card number analysis sub-module 804 to automatically identify the card number information in the card image and extract the card number.

[0150] In operation S1207, if the analysis and extraction fail, transfer to step S1205 to continue the photographing process; if the extraction is successful, transfer to operation S1208.

[0151] In operation S1208, for the already extracted card number information, associate the card number information with the current image, and at the same time send the information after the association process to the storage module 502 through the data transmission interface sub-module 801. Send an instruction to the display module 503 through the main control processor 510 to display that the photographing process has been completed on the liquid crystal display screen.

[0152] Figure 13 Schematically shows a method flow chart of the internal data processing of the overall degaussing device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

[0153] As Figure 13 shown, the method of the internal data processing of the overall degaussing device includes, for example, operations S1301 to S1319. The following will describe the method of the embodiment of the present disclosure in conjunction with Figure 5 the structure.

[0154] In operation S1301, the degaussing device receives a start instruction. When a customer arrives at the bank counter, after the teller completes the customer's account cancellation operation, the teller starts the degaussing device to perform degaussing processing on the magnetic stripe card.

[0155] In operation S1302, the degaussing device turns on the power supply based on the start instruction. At this time, the teller turns on the power supply of the degaussing device, and the 19 power indicator lights of the device light up.

[0156] In operation S1303, control the lifting of the outer shell cover of the degaussing device based on the start instruction. In one embodiment, the outer shell cover of the degaussing device can be controlled to rotate automatically. For example, after the outer shell cover is lifted, place the magnetic stripe card with the front side facing the camera direction in the card slot.

[0157] In operation S1304, control the outer shell cover of the degaussing device to drop down so that the outer shell cover covers the accommodation space to prevent other non-target degaussing cards near the degaussing device from being affected during degaussing.

[0158] In operation S1305, collect fingerprints through the fingerprint recognition button. The teller presses the finger on the 14 fingerprint recognition button (if the fingerprint entry authentication recognition operation has been completed before starting to operate the degaussing device, only the login recognition operation needs to be completed in subsequent operations; if the fingerprint entry authentication recognition has not been completed at the counter, the fingerprint needs to be entered separately first to authenticate the teller's operation authority).

[0159] In operation S1306, compare whether the currently collected fingerprint information is consistent with the fingerprint pre-stored in the memory. If they are consistent, go to step S1307; otherwise, go to step S1308.

[0160] In operation S1307, the comparison is successful, and the customer is prompted through the loudspeaker that they can proceed to the next step.

[0161] In operation S1308, the comparison fails, and the teller is prompted through the loudspeaker that they have no operation authority, and at the same time, go to step S1319.

[0162] In operation S1309, determine whether there is a pressing instruction for the fingerprint recognition button. For example, determine whether the teller presses the 14 fingerprint recognition button. If so, go to step S1310; otherwise, go to step S1318.

[0163] In operation S1310, the degaussing device receives the pressing instruction from the teller.

[0164] In operation S1311, start multiple fill lights.

[0165] In operation S1312, start the card photographing and recognition camera.

[0166] In operation S1313, determine whether the photographing is successful.

[0167] In operation S1314, start the card number analysis module, identify the card number of the image, associate the card number with the image, and transmit the association relationship to the storage module for subsequent offline export and use.

[0168] In operation S1315, the storage module 502 receives the data transmitted by the card number analysis module and stores it in the memory.

[0169] In operation S1316, the seal module 504 is started for processing, and the seal device stamps the word "demagnetized" on the back of the card.

[0170] In operation S1317, after the entire operation is completed, the teller is prompted by the loudspeaker that the demagnetization has been completed, and at the same time, "demagnetization successful" is displayed on the liquid crystal display screen.

[0171] In operation S1318, waiting for timeout, a processing failure indication is returned, and "timeout" is displayed on the liquid crystal display screen.

[0172] In operation S1319, comparison fails, a processing failure instruction is returned to the bank system operation page, and the teller performs an exit process on the system operation page.

[0173] Figure 14 A schematic diagram of the method for offline data import processing of the demagnetization device according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is schematically shown.

[0174] As Figure 14 shown, at the end of the bank day for the teller, that is, after the regular business operation time of the banking business ends, the bank still needs to continue to perform after-treatment on some businesses. At this time, the offline data import of the demagnetization device 1401 is started. First, the demagnetization device 1401 is connected to the bank operation terminal 1402 through the communication module. The communication module 501 is connected to the bank operation terminal 1402 in a wired or wireless manner. The wireless manner may include, but is not limited to, WIFI, Bluetooth, NFC, etc., and the wired manner includes a data interface. At this time, the connection authentication operation of the demagnetization device 1401 is completed on the bank operation terminal 1402, and the demagnetization device 1401 is ready.

[0175] In the case where the demagnetization device 1401 and the bank operation terminal 1402 complete the authentication, the main control processor inside the demagnetization device 1401 determines that the connection is normal and sends a ready instruction to the storage module for subsequent data reading.

[0176] In the case where the demagnetization device 1401 and the bank operation terminal 1402 complete the authentication, the bank system obtains the data of the demagnetization device 1401 recorded offline in the storage module 502 on the same day or a certain time period, and performs a reading operation, and transmits the specific destruction complete information (including the destroying teller, the teller operation authority, the destroyed card number, the date and time, the destruction method, etc.) recorded in the demagnetization device 1401 to the bank operation terminal 1402. At this time, the bank operation terminal 1402 is connected to the bank internal system server 1403, and synchronously updates the destruction complete information to the bank system. Among them, the bank internal system server 1403 is connected to the Ethernet 1404, and the bank internal system server 140 can store relevant data in the Ethernet 1404.

[0177] It can be understood that, compared with the method of manually cutting cards in the related art, the embodiments of the present disclosure can automatically demagnetize magnetic stripe cards through a demagnetization device to prevent the information on the magnetic stripe cards from being leaked. That is, the automatic demagnetization method of the embodiments of the present disclosure replaces the method of manually cutting cards, improving the demagnetization efficiency of magnetic stripe cards. Moreover, the demagnetization device of the present disclosure is easy to operate and has universality.

[0178] Through the embodiments of the present disclosure, the demagnetization operation after recycling magnetic stripe cards is upgraded from random to allowed only after associated authentication, improving the control risk of the operation authority for destroying cards within the bank. In addition, the demagnetization device demagnetizes the magnetic stripe card through the automatic demagnetization function, replacing the manual cutting operation step, improving the ease of use of the teller for card destruction operations. Furthermore, through the complete recording process of on-site demagnetization operations, the customer is prompted by voice that the demagnetization has been completed, eliminating the customer's concern about the reuse of old cards. By automatically identifying the card number of the card to be demagnetized and recording the associated relationships such as complete picture information, teller information, operation date and time, etc., it meets the bank supervision requirements and facilitates post-event auditing.

[0184] The demagnetization control module 1540 can be used to control the demagnetization mechanism to demagnetize the magnetic stripe card when the current fingerprint information is preset fingerprint information. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the demagnetization control module 1540 can, for example, execute the operation S940 described above with reference to Figure 9 and will not be elaborated herein.

[0185] The image acquisition module 1550 can be used to control the imaging device to acquire an image of the magnetic stripe card based on the demagnetization instruction.

[0186] The processing module 1560 can be used to process the image to obtain the card number information of the magnetic stripe card. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the processing module 1560 can, for example, execute the operation S960 described above with reference to Figure 9 and will not be elaborated herein.

[0187] The associated storage module 1570 can be used to associate and store the card number information and the image in the memory. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the associated storage module 1570 can, for example, execute the operation S970 described above with reference to Figure 9 and will not be elaborated herein.

[0188] The stamping control module 1580 can be used to control the stamping device to stamp the magnetic stripe card after demagnetizing the magnetic stripe card. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the stamping control module 1580 can, for example, execute the operation S980 described above with reference to Figure 9 and will not be elaborated herein.

[0189] According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, any plurality of modules, sub-modules, units, and sub-units, or at least part of the functions of any of them can be implemented in one module.
