Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to an AI-powered fully automatic ticket collecting and pasting machine, belonging to the field of office equipment technology. Background Technology

[0002] A negotiable instrument is a written document obtained or prepared when economic or other business transactions occur, which specifies the actual circumstances of the transaction or event. It serves as the primary data and important basis for accounting. Currently, however, the processing of negotiable instruments still relies mainly on manual identification and processing. This method of work is highly repetitive and easily leads to staff fatigue.

[0003] Furthermore, the traditional method of manually entering information from invoices into the computer is costly, inefficient, and involves a heavy workload that easily leads to fatigue and errors among the data entry personnel. Moreover, counterfeit invoices are not uncommon during the data entry process, causing accountants to spend a significant amount of time identifying them.

[0004] In accounting practice, the original vouchers received are often of different sizes, and accounting staff can only paste a large number of invoices by hand. This method not only consumes a lot of time, but also results in the invoices not being arranged neatly, which affects the review of the invoices.

[0005] For example, CN112896697B describes an automatic invoice pasting device and method that simulates the process of manually pasting invoices. By combining an invoice transmission mechanism with a pressing mechanism, it achieves automatic invoice delivery and pasting pressing functions, solving the problems of time-consuming, labor-intensive, and low-quality work in the process of manually pasting invoices during financial reimbursement, and improving the work efficiency and quality of financial personnel.

[0006] However, during the manual collection of receipts, there are instances where the receipts are reversed or upside down, requiring workers to compile the receipts that need to be pasted together, which cannot be automatically identified. Summary of the Invention

[0007] The purpose of this invention is to provide an artificial intelligence fully automatic ticket collection and pasting machine to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0008] The technical solution of the present invention is as follows:

[0009] The AI-powered fully automated ticket collection and pasting machine includes:

[0010] The document scanning unit is used to scan the documents to be collected in the scanning area and obtain the corresponding scanning information;

[0011] The processor identifies the scanned information of the ticket to obtain the recognition result;

[0012] The ticket flipping component adjusts the state of the ticket based on the recognition result;

[0013] Temporary storage unit, used for temporary storage of documents;

[0014] A glue application assembly for spraying glue onto the base sheet;

[0015] The robotic arm has a first adsorption component installed at its output end. The robotic arm receives the recognition result from the processor and, in conjunction with the first adsorption component, drives the ticket and the bottom sheet to transfer between various components.

[0016] Preferably, it also includes a voucher printer, which prints out the corresponding voucher for the document pasted on the base slip based on the recognition result of the processor.

[0017] Preferably, it also includes a third visual recognition system, which is used to recognize the voucher information printed by the voucher printer.

[0018] Preferably, it also includes a first visual recognition system, which is used to identify the status information of the ticket after it has been scanned by the ticket scanning unit.

[0019] Preferably, it also includes a second visual recognition system, which is used to identify whether there is glue on the bottom sheet of the glue application component.

[0020] Preferably, the system also includes a filing box, a first refund box, a second refund box, and a receiving box. The filing box is used to receive tickets pasted from the glue applicator. The first refund box is used to collect a first type of ticket that does not match the tickets to be pasted. The second refund box is used to collect a second type of ticket that does not match the tickets to be pasted. The receiving box is driven to be positioned at the output port of the ticket scanning unit by a lifting assembly.

[0021] Preferably, the robotic arm is a six-axis robotic arm.

[0022] Preferably, it also includes a paper storage unit for storing the bottom sheet, and the robotic arm and the first adsorption component work together to transfer the bottom sheet on the paper storage unit to the glue application component.

[0023] Preferably, the ticket flipping assembly includes a first drive motor and a second drive motor. The first drive motor is used to drive the movable plate at its output end to flip horizontally, and the movable plate flips horizontally to move closer to or away from the fixed plate. The second drive motor is used to drive the fixed plate at its output end to rotate horizontally. Both the movable plate and the fixed plate are provided with a second adsorption assembly.

[0024] Preferably, it also includes a support frame and a rotating shaft rotatably connected to the support frame. The movable plate is fixed on the rotating shaft. The rotating shaft is hollow inside and has an air connector at one end. The hollow rotating shaft is connected to the second adsorption component on the movable plate through an air pipe.

[0025] The present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0026] The document scanning unit scans the documents to be collected in the scanning area and obtains the corresponding scanning information. The processor obtains the recognition result from the scanning information of the documents and controls the robotic arm, document flipping component, glue application component, etc. based on the recognition result.

[0027] The ticket scanning unit scans the tickets to be collected in the scanning area to obtain preliminary ticket status information. By cooperating with the first vision recognition system, the accuracy of ticket status recognition is enhanced.

[0028] Based on the identification results, the ticket flipping component flips the tickets that are in the wrong orientation.

[0029] Users only need to place the receipts to be collected on the receipt scanning unit, and the device will automatically recognize the content of the receipts. The processor will obtain the recognition result based on the scanning information of the receipts and automatically and intelligently group the receipts to be collected. At the same time, receipts that do not conform to the process will be removed, thus realizing the automated processing of receipts. Attached Figure Description

[0035] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0036] Example: Figure 1-3 As shown:

[0037] Multiple receipts to be collected are stacked vertically and placed in the input port of the receipt scanning unit 2. The receipt scanning unit 2 identifies the receipts one by one, recognizing the content of the receipts and the orientation of the front and back. The identified receipts are then transported to the receipt box 94. For each receipt identified, the lifting component (which can be an electric telescopic rod) lowers the receipt box 94 by a set height, so that the identified receipts are also stacked vertically.

[0038] A first visual recognition system 21 is set at the output port of the ticket scanning unit 2. Although the ticket scanning unit 2 itself has the ability to recognize various information such as the orientation of the front and back of the ticket and its type, there is a possibility of recognition error. Therefore, after the ticket scanning unit 2 scans and recognizes a ticket to be collected, the first visual recognition system 21 recognizes the various information such as the orientation of the front and back of the ticket and its type again. The various information of the ticket to be collected is judged by combining the scanning recognition of the ticket scanning unit 2 and the visual recognition of the first visual recognition system 21.

[0039] The ticket scanning unit 2 and the first vision recognition system 21 send the recognized content to the processor (which can be a central processing unit / PLC / microcontroller). The processor obtains the recognition result based on the scanning information of the ticket.

[0040] After all the stacked receipts to be collected have been identified, the next step will be carried out.

[0041] If the invoice to be collected is identified as a Greenlink invoice, then extract information such as the code, number, buyer's code, seller's code, amount, and tax amount from the Greenlink invoice;

[0042] The green invoice is then compared with the red invoice code, number, buyer's code, seller's code, amount, and tax amount. If there is no corresponding red invoice information or the information does not match, the verification will fail, and the green invoice will be marked as needing to be returned. In subsequent steps, the robotic arm 1 and the first adsorption component 11 work together to move the green invoice to the second return box 93 to complete the return. If the verification is successful, the robotic arm 1 and the first adsorption component 11 work together to move the green invoice to the storage box (not marked in the attached diagram).

[0043] Then, generate the order number, invoice code, invoice number, amount, tax amount, and the total amount (amount + tax) of 100 invoices; then print the list (electronic form) in sequence; grab a sheet of paper from the paper storage unit to isolate the different types of invoices.

[0044] If the invoice to be collected is identified as a red-copy invoice, the code, number, buyer's code, seller's code, amount, tax amount and other information in the red-copy invoice are extracted, and the code and number in the invoice are checked online with the ERP verification information; if the red-copy invoice has no content / mark, the robotic arm 1 and the first adsorption component 11 work together to move the red-copy invoice to the first return box 92 to return the invoice.

[0045] If the invoice to be collected is identified as a normal red-copy invoice, and the front / back / left / right orientation is in the set state, then the robotic arm 1 and the first adsorption component 11 work together to move the red-copy invoice to the grid space corresponding to the temporary storage unit 5.

[0046] If the invoice to be collected is identified as a normal red-copy invoice, and one of its orientations (front / back or left / right) does not conform to the set state, the robotic arm 1 and the first adsorption component 11 work together to move the red-copy invoice to the upper surface of the fixed plate 34. The second adsorption component (not shown in the attached diagram) on the fixed plate 34 adsorbs and fixes the red-copy invoice to the upper surface of the fixed plate 34. If the left / right orientation of the red-copy invoice does not conform to the set state, the second drive motor 35 drives the fixed plate 34 to rotate horizontally, so that the left / right orientation of the red-copy invoice conforms to the set state. Then, if the up / down orientation of the red-copy invoice does not conform to the set state, the first drive motor 32 drives the movable plate 33 to flip over to above the fixed plate 34. Figure 2 As shown, the second adsorption component on the fixed plate 34 then disconnects the vacuum adsorption, and the second adsorption component on the movable plate 33 generates vacuum adsorption, so that the red invoice is adsorbed and fixed on the lower surface of the movable plate 33, realizing the transfer of the invoice from the fixed plate 34 to the movable plate 33; then the first drive motor 32 drives the movable plate 33 to reverse and reset, so that the red invoice is flipped upside down to the upper surface of the movable plate 33, then the second adsorption component of the movable plate 33 disconnects the vacuum adsorption, and then the robotic arm 1 and the first adsorption component 11 work together to move the red invoice to the grid space corresponding to the temporary storage unit 5.

[0047] Furthermore, the movable plate 33 has a through hole in the middle with an area slightly smaller than that of the ticket, which will not hinder the normal placement and adsorption of the ticket on the movable plate 33. When the movable plate 33 is flipped away from the fixed plate 34, the upper surfaces of the movable plate 33 and the fixed plate 34 are on the same plane / parallel. At this time, a fourth visual recognition system 38 is provided below the through hole of the movable plate 33. The fourth visual recognition system 38 is used to re-identify and judge whether the vertical orientation, horizontal orientation, and other states of the ticket on the upper surface of the movable plate 33 conform to the set state.

[0048] Furthermore, the first drive motor 32 is mounted on the side wall of the bracket 31, the second drive motor 35 and the fourth visual recognition system 38 are fixedly mounted relative to the bracket 31, a rotating shaft 36 is rotatably connected to the bracket 31, the first drive motor 32 is connected to the right end of the rotating shaft 36, an air connector 37 is mounted on the left end of the rotating shaft 36 and communicates with the inside of the rotating shaft 36, a movable plate 33 is fixed to the side wall of the rotating shaft 36, an air nozzle connector communicating with the inside of the rotating shaft 36 is mounted on the side wall of the rotating shaft 36, and the second adsorption component on the movable plate 33 is connected to the air nozzle connector through an air pipe.

[0049] The negative pressure air source 12 can be an air compressor to provide a negative pressure source for the first adsorption component 11 and the second adsorption component.

[0050] Temporary storage unit 5 has a grid box structure, and related / need-to-be-attached tickets are placed in the same grid space in temporary storage unit 5.

[0051] After all the tickets to be collected on the ticket receiving box 94 have been transferred to the corresponding grid space in the temporary storage unit 5 / the first ticket return box 92 / the second ticket return box 93, the processor determines whether the tickets in the same grid space in the temporary storage unit 5 are complete. If not, the processor reminds the user to supplement the tickets via the display screen. If all the tickets are complete, the robotic arm 1 and the first suction component 11 work together to transfer the top sheet (A4 paper) of the paper storage unit 8 to the surface of the glue application component 6. The glue application component 6 obtains information such as the structure and size of the ticket to be pasted from the processor, and then sprays glue on the corresponding position of the sheet. After that, the robotic arm 1 and the first suction component 11 work together to transfer the temporary storage unit 5... Tickets within the same grid space are retrieved sequentially and pressed onto the corresponding positions on the bottom sheet. Adhesive is used to attach the tickets to the top surface of the bottom sheet. After all tickets within the same grid space in the temporary storage unit 5 are attached to the bottom sheet, the voucher printer 7 prints out the corresponding voucher. Simultaneously, the third visual recognition system 71 identifies the content and shape of the voucher and sends this information to the processor. The glue application component 6 obtains information such as the structure and size of the voucher to be pasted from the processor and sprays glue onto the remaining blank space on the bottom sheet. Then, the robotic arm 1 and the first adsorption component 11 work together to transfer the voucher to the corresponding position on the bottom sheet for pasting.

[0052] Afterwards, the robotic arm 1 and the first adsorption component 11 work together to transfer the pasted document to the filing box 91, from which the staff retrieves the document.

[0053] Furthermore, a second visual recognition system 4 is provided above the glue application component 6. The second visual recognition system 4 is used to identify and determine whether the glue application component 6 has successfully sprayed the glue onto the upper surface of the base sheet.

[0054] Furthermore, it also includes a housing, and all the equipment in this device is installed inside the housing.

[0055] The robotic arm 1 can be a six-axis robotic arm connected to the processor, so that the exact position of the ticket can be accurately determined, which is conducive to moving at any position in space. The first adsorption component 11 and the second adsorption component can be vacuum suction cups.

[0056] The first adsorption component 11 on the robotic arm 1 is configured to be driven to switch between eight positions; in the first position, the first adsorption component 11 is located above the ticket receiving box 94 inside the ticket scanning unit 2; in the second position, the first adsorption component 11 is located in the space above the first return ticket box 92 (red return ticket); in the third position, the first adsorption component 11 is located in the space above the second return ticket box 93 (green return ticket box); in the fourth position, the first adsorption component 11 is located in the space above the invoice flipping component 3; in the fifth position, the first adsorption component 11 is located in the grid space of the temporary storage unit 5; in the sixth position, the first adsorption component 11 is located in the space above the paper storage unit 8; in the seventh position, the first adsorption component 11 is located in the space above the glue application component 6; and in the eighth position, the first adsorption component 11 is located in the space above the paper output tray of the voucher printer 7.

Any equivalent structural or procedural transformations made based on the content of the present invention's specification and drawings, or direct or indirect applications in other related technical fields, are similarly included within the patent protection scope of the present invention.
