[0054] The present invention will now be described in detail through exemplary embodiments. However, it should be understood that, without further description, elements, structures, and features in one embodiment may be advantageously incorporated into other embodiments.

[0055] In the following, embodiments of this application will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0056] A parcel locker is a smart, interactive parcel storage and retrieval device. It has storage space for storing parcels and device space for intelligent interaction. Through intelligent interaction, it can display interactive information, open and close storage spaces, authenticate users' identities, and manage the storage space. The parcel locker's storage space includes several independent storage compartments, while the device space is used to store and house related devices that support intelligent interaction.

[0057] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the parcel locker according to the embodiments of this application has a device space including: a locker door 100, a housing 1, and a touch display module 200.

[0058] The parcel locker's equipment space includes a locker door 100 that can be opened and closed. A touch display module 200 is located on the back of the locker door 100, and a housing 1 is located on the back of the locker door, fixing the touch display module within the housing 1. When the locker door is closed, the back of the locker door is within the equipment space, and the touch display module 200 is closed inside the parcel locker. The touch display module 200 is used to display interactive screens and input user interaction actions. The locker door 100 has an opening 101 for the display area of ​​the touch display module 200 to pass through, and the display screen of the touch display module 200 is located at the opening 101. The touch display module 200 presents information to the user through the opening 101, and the user can interact with the touch display module 200 through the opening 101.

[0059] Reference Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The housing 1 is located on the back of the door 100. The housing 1 openly encloses the touch display module 200, and the housing 1 and the door are combined to form a cavity enclosing the touch display module 200. The housing 1 includes a back shell 106, and on one side of the back shell 106 (e.g., Figure 3 The right side (as shown) is bent to form a first step 1011 and a second step 1012, with the bending direction facing the door. The second step 1012 is closer to the door than the first step 1011. On the other side of the back shell (as shown) Figure 3 The left side shown is bent to form a third step 1013 and a fourth step 1014, with the bending direction facing the door. The fourth step 1014 is closer to the door 100 than the third step 1013. One side edge of the back shell is set opposite to the other side edge of the back shell.

[0060] From a manufacturing process perspective, the shell 1 can be formed by stamping a metal plate multiple times. The middle part of the metal plate is stamped to form a first-level recess, and a first-level step is formed around the first recess. The step on the right side is the second step, and the step on the left side is the fourth step. Steps are also formed above and below the first-level recess. The middle part of the first-level recess is stamped to form a second-level recess. The bottom surface of the second-level recess is the back shell 106. A second-level step is formed around the second-level recess. The step on the right side is the first step, and the step on the left side is the third step. Steps are also formed above and below the second-level recess. The first-level recess and the second-level recess form an open cavity that can accommodate objects, and the touch display module is placed in this open cavity.

[0061] The housing serves to clamp the touch display module and fix it to the door, thus hanging the touch display module on the back of the door.

[0062] Reference Figure 5 As shown, when the housing holds the touch display module, the first surface 1011a of the first step 1011 faces the back of the touch display module and also faces the back of the door; the third surface 1013a of the third step 1013 faces the back of the touch display module and also faces the back of the door; the second surface 1012a of the second step 1012 faces the back of the door; and the fourth surface 1014a of the fourth step 1014 faces the back of the door. Thus, the first surface 1011a is located on the back of the touch display module, and the third surface 1013a is located on the back of the touch display module. The touch display module 200 is located on the first surface 1011a of the first step and also on the third surface 1013a of the third step.

[0063] The touch display module 200 is located on the first surface 1011a and the third surface 1013a respectively, so that there is a gap 102 between the back cover 106 and the touch display module.

[0064] Reference Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, the first step 1011 includes a first surface 1011a and a fifth surface 1011b, the second step 1012 includes a second surface 1012a and a sixth surface 1012b, the third step 1013 includes a third surface 1013a and a seventh surface 1013b, and the fourth step 1014 includes a fourth surface 1014a and an eighth surface 1014b. A first fixing through hole 1015a is provided on the second surface 1012a of the second step, and a second fixing through hole 1016a is provided on the fourth surface 1014a of the fourth step.

[0065] A clamping plate 107 is provided protruding from the first surface 1011a, such that the clamping plate 107 is located on the side of the touch display module, thereby clamping one side of the touch display module.

[0066] A first cutout 1036 is provided on the third surface 1013a of the third step, and a clamping and fixing component 108, which is independent of the back shell, passes through the first cutout 1036 to clamp the other side of the touch display module.

[0067] Reference Figure 8 The clamping and fixing component 108 includes a fixing part 1081 and a clamping part 1082. The fixing part 1081 is fixed to the housing 1, specifically to the third surface 1013a. The clamping part 1082 passes through the first cut 1036 to be located on the other side of the touch display module, thereby realizing the clamping of the other side of the touch display module.

[0068] The clamping and fixing component 108 is independent of the back shell 1 and is detachably mounted on the back shell to clamp the touch display module; the fixing component can be fixed to the back shell by screws 1083. The clamping and fixing component can be used for clamping the touch display module, that is, the clamping plate provided on the first surface of the first step can be the clamping part of the clamping and fixing component; or the clamping and fixing component can be used on some sides of the touch display module, while the clamping plate integrated with the back shell is used on the other side, that is, the clamping plate provided on the first surface of the first step can be a structure integrated with the shell, which can be formed by bending a part of the first surface.

[0069] The clamping plate 107 can be integrally connected to the shell 1 and formed by bending, or it can be a separate component connected to the shell 1 by welding or other processing techniques. Specifically, a second notch 1035 is provided on the first surface 1011a. The first surface can be bent to form the clamping plate 107, or the clamping plate 107 can be inserted into the second notch 1035 for welding.

[0070] The back cover 106 is also provided with a wiring port 1061. An electrical connection wire is provided inside the touch display module 200. The wiring of the electrical connection wire passes through the gap 102 and connects to the outside of the housing 1 via the wiring port 1061. The back cover and the door are combined to enclose and fix the touch display module. The electrical connection of the touch display module needs to pass through the enclosure cavity between the back cover and the door, specifically through the back cover. The electrical connection wire also needs space to be placed. The touch display module is located on the first surface and the third surface, respectively, creating a gap between the back cover and the touch display module. This gap is used to house the electrical connection wire. The wiring port on the back cover communicates with this gap, allowing the electrical connection wire to pass through the enclosure cavity and achieve electrical connection from outside the enclosure cavity.

[0071] Reference Figure 9 and Figure 10 The clamping and fixing component 108 includes a fixing part 1081 and a clamping part 1082 extending in different directions, with the clamping part 1082 and the fixing part 1081 connected at an angle. The fixing part 1081 has screw holes and is positioned corresponding to the first cutout 1036. The fixing part 1081 is fastened to the third surface by screws 1083. The clamping part 1082 is inserted into the first cutout 1036 to facilitate clamping the touch display module 200 by the clamping and fixing component 108.

[0072] By setting a detachable clamping and fixing component 108, the assembly errors that may exist during the assembly of the touch display module 200 can be flexibly matched, making the detachable clamping and fixing component 108 adaptable to a wider range of assembly situations, and still able to firmly clamp the housing 1 and the touch display module 200 even when there are assembly errors.

[0073] Reference Figure 11 , Figure 12 , Figure 13 and Figure 14 As shown, Figure 12 for Figure 11 A magnified view of a local region B in the middle. Figure 14 for Figure 13 An enlarged schematic diagram of a local area C in the middle shows the detailed structure of the touch display module held in the shell.

[0074] like Figure 12 As shown, the clamping and fixing component 108 clamps one side of the touch display module through the clamping part 1082, the clamping part 1082 passes through the first cut 1036 and clamps one side of the touch display module; the clamping and fixing component 108 is fixed to the housing through the fixing part 1081.

[0075] like Figure 14 As shown, the clamping plate 107 passes through the second cut 1035 and is clamped on the other side of the touch display module. The clamping plate 107 is integrally formed with the housing 1.

[0076] When the housing is combined with the door, it is fixed to the door by the surfaces of the second step 1012 and the fourth step 1014.

[0077] Reference Figure 15 , Figure 16 , Figure 17 , Figure 18 and Figure 19 The second surface 1012a of the second step faces the back of the door 100 and is fixed to the door 100. The fourth surface 1014a of the fourth step faces the back of the door 100 and is fixed to the door 100.

[0078] The back of the box door is provided with a first threaded post 171 and a second threaded post 181. The first threaded post 171 passes through the first fixing through hole 1015a and is fixed with the first nut 173. The second threaded post 181 passes through the second fixing through hole 1016a and is fixed with the second nut 172, so as to fix the box door to the shell.

[0079] The use of threaded posts and nuts for fixing facilitates the detachable assembly of the housing and the door. The housing and door can be manufactured separately and then installed together. When it is necessary to install, repair or replace the touch display module between the housing and the door, the housing can be easily separated from the door.

[0080] Reference Figure 20 and Figure 21A fixing plate is connected around the opening 101 on the back of the box door 100. In this embodiment, the fixing plate includes a first fixing plate 17 and a second fixing plate 18. The first fixing plate 17 and the second fixing plate 18 are fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the opening 101 on the back of the box door 100 by welding. A first threaded post 171 is connected to the first fixing plate 17, and the first threaded post 171 is fixedly connected to the first fixing plate 17 by riveting. A plurality of first fixing plates 17 are provided on the back of the box door 100.

[0081] The first threaded post 171 on the first fixing plate 17 is respectively set to correspond to the first fixing through hole 1015a. The first threaded post 171 is passed through the first fixing through hole 1015a and fastened by the first nut 173 that is adapted to the first threaded post 171, thereby fixing the housing 1 to the box door 100.

[0082] A second threaded post 181 is connected to the second fixing plate 18, and the second threaded post 181 is fixedly connected to the second fixing plate 18 by riveting. Multiple second threaded posts 181 are arranged at intervals on the second fixing plate 18.

[0083] A second fixing through hole 1016a is provided on the fourth surface of the fourth step. The second fixing through hole 1016a is correspondingly provided with a second threaded post 181 on the second fixing plate 18. The second threaded post 181 is passed through the second fixing through hole 1016a and fastened by a second nut 172 that is adapted to the second threaded post 181, thereby fixing the housing 1 to the box door 100. The connection and fixing method between the box door 100 and the housing 1 in this embodiment allows the box door 100 to be fixed without opening holes or inserting fasteners on the front side, which improves the overall aesthetics of the box door 100.

[0084] The shell secures and fits the touch display module, while also fixing it to the door. Therefore, the back shell is located behind the touch display module, and the steps along its side extend to the front. Since the touch display module is composed of two stacked cubes of different sizes, the steps along the back shell are two-tiered. Preferably, the first and second steps are continuously bent and connected, as are the third and fourth steps, to accommodate the shape of the touch display module. One tier supports the rear of the touch display module, placing it on both the first and third surfaces. A clamping plate / holding part is provided to hold the smaller cube; one clamping plate protrudes from the first surface, and the holding part passes through a first cut on the third surface. The other tier wraps around the larger cube, forming a surface for fixing to the door. A first fixing through-hole is located on the second surface, and a second fixing through-hole is located on the fourth surface.

[0085] Reference Figure 22The back cover 106 is provided with multiple heat dissipation holes 104. A fan 105 is provided on the outer side of the back cover 106 at the position corresponding to the heat dissipation holes 104. The fan 105 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the housing 1 by screws. The fan 105 drives the airflow in the housing 1 to achieve heat dissipation in the housing 1.

[0086] A back attachment device 19 is also fixedly connected to the outside of the back cover 106. A printed circuit board for controlling the touch display module 20 is provided inside the back attachment device 19. Placing the back attachment device 19 on the outside of the back cover 106 saves space inside the housing 1. At the same time, placing the printed circuit board on the outside of the housing 1 can improve the heat dissipation effect of the printed circuit board.

[0087] Reference Figures 23-33 The touch display module 200 includes a display module 20, a touch module 30, and a frame 8. The frame 8 includes a forward fixed bending portion 82 and a rear fixed bending portion 81 of a light-transmitting plate 83. The forward fixed bending portion 82 is arranged around the light-transmitting plate 83.

[0088] The touch module 30 is fixed to the forward fixed bending portion 82 and is located on the front side of the frame 8. The display module 20 is fixed to the rear fixed bending portion 81 and is located on the rear side of the frame 8.

[0089] The rearward fixed bend 81 and the forward fixed bend 82 are bonded together to form an integral structure. The outer periphery of the forward fixed bend 82 is located outside the outer periphery of the rearward fixed bend 81, so that the size of the rearward fixed bend 81 is smaller than that of the forward fixed bend 82. In the front-rear direction, the rearward fixed bend 81 is positioned further rearward than the forward fixed bend 82.

[0090] Optionally, the forward fixed bending part 82 is bonded to the rear fixed bending part 81. The forward fixed bending part is a hollow structure, and the light-transmitting plate is embedded in the hollow position. The light-transmitting plate is bonded to the rear fixed bending part, and the area of ​​the light-transmitting plate is greater than or equal to the display area area of ​​the display module.

[0091] The touch module adopts an infrared touch solution, which is realized by infrared lamps distributed around the outer side of the display module to form an infrared touch network. Therefore, the infrared lamps are located outside the display area of ​​the display module to avoid the infrared lamps blocking the display area.

[0092] Furthermore, the outer periphery of the forward fixed bend is located outside the outer periphery of the rear fixed bend, so that the forward fixed bend fixes the touch module, the rear fixed bend fixes the display module, and the touch module is located outside the display module.

[0093] A light-transmitting panel is positioned in front of the display area of ​​the display module, between the display module and the touch module, to protect the display module. The area of ​​the light-transmitting panel is greater than or equal to the display area of ​​the display module to avoid obstructing the display area.

[0094] Optionally, a light-transmitting plate 83 is bonded to the forward fixed bending portion 82. Specifically, the forward fixed bending portion 82 is arranged around the light-transmitting plate 83. The light-transmitting plate 83 is preferably a glass plate. The area of ​​the light-transmitting plate is larger than the display area of ​​the display module, thereby playing the role of waterproofing, dustproofing and preventing scratches on the display panel 7.

[0095] The touch module 30 is disposed on the front side of the forward fixed bending portion 82, and includes an outer frame 9 and an infrared light strip. The infrared light strip is disposed on the outer side of the display area of ​​the display module 20. The outer frame 9 is made of a material that can transmit infrared light. The outer frame 9 is connected inside the forward fixed bending portion 82 and is formed along the edge of the forward fixed bending portion 82.

[0096] Outer connecting hooks 91 are spaced apart on the outer side near the outer frame 9. Buckles 821 corresponding to the outer connecting hooks 91 are spaced apart on the outer periphery of the forward fixed bending part 82. The outer connecting hook 91 includes a connecting part 911 and a hook part 912. The connecting part 911 is connected to both sides of the hook part 912. One end of the connecting part 911 is connected to the hook part 912, and the other end is connected to the outer frame 9, so that a limiting hole 913 is formed between the connecting part 911, the hook part 912, and the outer frame 9.

[0097] The hook portion 912 includes an outer hook portion 9121 and an inner hook portion 9122. That is, the hook portion 912 protrudes outward relative to the connecting portion 911 to form the outer hook portion 9121, and the hook portion 912 protrudes inward relative to the connecting portion 911 to form the inner hook portion 9122.

[0098] The buckle 821 includes a second through portion 8211 and a second limiting portion 8212. The second through portion 8211 is a through hole, and the second limiting portion 8212 is connected to the second through portion 8211. The second limiting portion 8212 is recessed into the inner side of the forward fixed bending portion 82 relative to the second through portion 8211. When the buckle 821 on the forward fixed bending portion 82 engages with the outer connecting hook 91, the outer hook portion 9121 of the outer connecting hook 91 engages in the second through portion 8211, and the first limiting portion 8152 engages in the limiting hole 913. This makes the connection between the outer frame 9 and the forward fixed bending portion 82 tighter, preventing the outer connecting hook 91 from disengaging from the buckle 821 and ensuring a tight connection between the forward fixed bending portion 82 and the outer frame 9.

[0099] Specific reference Figures 26-30To further securely connect the outer frame 9 to the forward fixed bending part 82, first through holes 93 are provided at the four corners of the outer frame 9 along the front-back direction, and second through holes 822 corresponding to the first through holes 93 are provided on the inner folded edge of the forward fixed bending part 82. The outer frame 9 and the forward fixed bending part 82 are further secured by fasteners passing through the first through holes 93 and the second through holes 822.

[0100] For details, please refer to Figures 31-36 An accommodating space is formed between the outer frame 9 and the forward fixed bend 82, surrounding the forward fixed bend 82, and the infrared light strip is arranged in the accommodating space. The infrared light strip includes a light panel 16, multiple infrared signal transmitters 14 and multiple infrared signal receivers 15.

[0101] Specifically, inner connecting hooks 92 protruding outward from the outer side of the outer frame 9 are provided at intervals on the inner side near the outer frame 9. The lamp board 16 is fixedly snapped onto the outer frame 9 by the inner connecting hooks 92 and the outer connecting parts 911 on the outer connecting hooks 91. The assembly is simple and prevents the infrared light strip from falling off the outer frame 9 and being damaged.

[0102] Multiple infrared signal transmitters 14 and multiple infrared signal receivers 15 are connected to the lamp panel 16. The infrared signal receivers 15 receive infrared signals emitted by the infrared signal transmitters 14, and the infrared signals can be emitted through the outer frame 9. It should be noted that one infrared signal receiver 15 can correspond to one or more infrared signal transmitters 14. The form of the infrared signal can be either infrared rays or other forms.

[0103] When a user touches the light-transmitting panel 83, it blocks the infrared signal emitted by one of the infrared signal transmitters 14. When the corresponding infrared signal receiver 15 cannot receive the corresponding infrared signal, the touch display module can determine the specific location of the area touched by the user's hand. Based on the module information displayed on the corresponding display panel 7, it can determine and trigger the user's desired information interaction function. This allows for information interaction without direct contact between the user and the display panel 7, thus protecting the display panel 7 and preventing dust and scratches.

[0104] Reference Figure 36 The display module 20 includes a back plate 2, a reflector 3, a light guide plate 4, a film 5, a frame 6, and a display panel 7.

[0105] The back plate 2 is assembled inside the housing 1. A reflector 3 is provided on the side of the back plate 2 away from the housing 1, so that light incident on the back plate 2 is irradiated onto the reflector 3. The reflector 3 is used to reflect the light away from the back plate 2, where the direction away from the back plate 2 is the front direction, so as to improve the display brightness and display effect of the touch display module. In this embodiment, the reflector 3 is glued to the back plate 2 for better fixation.

[0106] A light guide plate 4 is provided on the front side of the reflector 3. The light guide plate 4 has printed dots, which are multiple raised dots arranged horizontally and vertically. The light reflected from the reflector 3 is reflected onto the light guide plate 4, and the printed dots on the light guide plate 4 reflect the light in multiple directions to prevent total internal reflection between the light guide plate 4 and the reflector 3. This avoids uneven light reflection in different areas caused by total internal reflection, which would result in uneven brightness in the display effect.

[0107] The front side of the light guide plate 4 is provided with a multi-layer film 5, which plays a role in uniform light distribution, so as to avoid the generation of excessively bright or dark areas.

[0108] Reference Figure 37 In this embodiment, both the right side 25 and the upper side 27 of the back plate 2 are provided with flanges 23, which helps to improve the overall structural strength of the back plate 2. At the same time, the flanges 23 can also be used to prevent the internal structure of the back plate 2 and to prevent the elastomer 13 from falling out of the back plate 2.

[0109] Specific reference Figures 38-41 In this embodiment, multiple raised portions protruding outward from the back plate 2 are provided on the four flanges 23 connecting to the left side 24, right side 25, lower side 26, and upper side 27 of the back plate 2. These raised portions include a first raised portion 28 and a second raised portion 29. On the same flange 23 of the back plate 2, the first raised portion 28 and the second raised portion 29 are arranged alternately. In the front-rear direction, the second raised portion 29 is positioned closer to the front than the first raised portion 28.

[0110] A frame 6 is disposed around the edge of the back panel 2. The frame 6 is provided with a first locking hole 61 that matches the first raised portion 28 of the back panel 2 and a second locking hole 62 that corresponds to the second raised portion 29. When the frame 6 is fastened to the back panel 2 from front to back, the first locking hole 61 on the frame 6 engages with the first raised portion 28 on the four sides of the back panel 2, and the first raised portion 28 is fastened into the first locking hole 61 to prevent the frame 6 from detaching from the back panel 2, and at the same time to prevent the reflector 3, light guide plate 4 and multilayer film 5 inside the back panel 2 from falling out of the back panel 2.

[0111] It should be noted that the second locking hole 62 is an open locking hole. When the second protrusion 29 is assembled into the second locking hole 62, the second locking hole 62 does not restrict the second protrusion 29. The second locking hole 62 is an open locking hole provided only to avoid the second protrusion 29.

[0112] The display panel 7 is located on the front side of the frame 6. The front side of the frame 6 has a receiving groove for accommodating the display panel 7. The display panel 7 is assembled into the receiving groove and is used to display images. The circuit board 71 is connected to the flexible circuit sheet 72, and is connected to the left end of the display panel 7 via the flexible circuit sheet 72. During assembly of the display panel 7, the flexible circuit sheet 72 is bent to the rear side of the display panel 7, so that the circuit board 71 is located on the rear side of the display panel 7. This reduces space occupation, decreases the thickness of the touch display module, and improves the compactness of the structural components.

[0113] Specific reference Figure 24 as well as Figures 42-46 The rear-fixed bending part 81 is fitted around the periphery of the frame 6. The frame is located between the back panel and the rear-fixed bending part. The outer periphery of the rear-fixed bending part 81 is provided with a third locking hole 815 that matches the second raised part 29 on the four side flanges 23 of the back panel 2. The frame 8 is fastened to the periphery of the back panel 2 and the frame 6 from front to back. Specifically, since the second locking hole 62 is an open locking hole to avoid the second raised part 29, the third locking hole 815 on the rear-fixed bending part 81 is fastened to the second raised part 29 on the four side flanges 23 of the back panel 2. The second raised part 29 is fastened into the third locking hole 815 to fix the frame 8 and the back panel 2. The frame 6 is located between the back panel 2 and the frame 8. This assembly method is simple and quick, which can reduce assembly time and thus reduce assembly costs.

[0114] The display module's frame is located between the back plate and the rearward fixing bend. The back plate is fixed to the rearward fixing bend through the frame. The back plate not only fixes the display module but also the surrounding frame, achieving multiple fixing functions on a single structural component and improving and simplifying the fixing method.

[0115] The third locking hole 815 consists of a first through portion 8151 and a first limiting portion 8152. The first through portion 8151 is a through hole on the rearward fixed bending portion 81. The first limiting portion 8152 is connected to the first through portion 8151 and is recessed inward relative to the first through portion 8151 towards the inside of the rearward fixed bending portion 81. When the third locking hole 815 on the rearward fixed bending portion 81 engages with the second raised portion 29, the second raised portion 29 engages into the first through portion 8151, and the first limiting portion 8152 engages with the rear side of the second raised portion 29 to prevent the third locking hole 815 from disengaging from the second raised portion 29, thus ensuring a tight connection between the rearward fixed bending portion 81 and the back plate 2.

[0116] The rearward fixed bending part 81 is formed by the lower side frame 811, the upper side frame 812, the left side frame 813 and the right side frame 814. The outer edge of the lower side frame 811 and the outer edge of the upper side frame 812 are provided with first fixing holes 816. The flange 23 connected to the lower side 26 and the flange 23 connected to the upper side 27 of the back plate 2 are provided with first threaded parts 231 corresponding to the positions of the first fixing holes 816. The first threaded parts 231 are provided with internal threads. The rubber frame 6 is provided with clearance holes 63 corresponding to the positions of the first fixing holes 816. The lower and upper sides of the housing 1 are provided with second fixing holes 1019 corresponding to the first fixing holes 816. The first threaded part 231 is connected by threaded fasteners passing through the second fixing hole 1019, the clearance hole 63, and the first fixing hole 816 in sequence, thereby fixing the display module 20 to the housing 1. At the same time, the clamping plate 107 and the clamping and fixing component 108 are clamped to the outer edge of the rear fixed bending part 81 to assemble the touch display module onto the housing 1. This makes disassembly and assembly simple and improves installation and maintenance efficiency.
