[0002] Currently, biometric technology is widely used in vending machines, convenience stores, hospitals and other scenarios, allowing people to complete payments without taking out their mobile phones. Compared with facial recognition technology, the newly launched palm-swiping technology is faster and more flexible, with an average processing time of 300 milliseconds. It is not affected by wearing masks, glasses or other protective devices, and is easily adaptable to different user heights. It does not require looking up or down or repeatedly focusing, thus resulting in higher verification efficiency and a better user experience.

[0003] In the existing technology, the palm recognition POS machine has certain drawbacks in use. Because the structure of the palm recognition POS machine is generally integrated and has strong sealing to prevent dust from entering, when the recognition camera and light source of the POS machine are damaged, they cannot be replaced because the glass cover seals the recognition camera and light source. This greatly reduces the efficiency of the entire device in effectively recognizing identities and brings certain adverse effects to actual use.

[0004] Therefore, the present invention provides a palm-scan recognition payment machine. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies and solve certain drawbacks in the use of palm recognition payment machines, which are generally designed as a single unit with strong sealing to prevent dust from entering, it is necessary to address the issue that when the recognition camera and light source are damaged, they cannot be replaced because the glass cover seals them. This significantly reduces the efficiency of the entire device in effectively identifying individuals and brings certain adverse effects to practical use.

[0006] The technical solution adopted by the present invention to solve its technical problem is as follows: A palm recognition payment machine of the present invention includes a payment machine body; a closed cover is provided on the top of the payment machine body; a U-shaped light-gathering plate is fixedly connected to the bottom of the closed cover; a placement plate is fixedly connected between opposite side walls of the payment machine body through a set of fixing rods; the placement plate has a placement through groove; a placement box is fixedly connected to the bottom wall of the payment machine body; a first through groove is provided on both sides of the placement box; a component block is placed in the placement box; a pair of first sliding grooves are provided on opposite side walls of the payment machine body; a first slider is slidably connected in a set of first sliding grooves; a limiting block is fixedly connected to the side wall of the first slider; a limiting component is provided in the payment machine body; the limiting component is used to drive the first slider to slide in the first sliding groove.

[0007] Preferably, the limiting component includes a starting unit and a second slide; a set of second slides are respectively formed on opposite side walls of the consumer machine body; a second slider is slidably connected in each set of second slides; a first connecting rod is rotatably connected to the second slider via a first rotating shaft; the other end of the first connecting rod is rotatably connected to the first slider via a second rotating shaft; the starting unit is used to drive the second slider to slide in the second slide.

[0008] Preferably, the starting unit includes a support plate; a pair of support plates are fixed to the bottom wall of the consumer machine body by a pair of springs; the top of the pair of support plates are respectively connected to the bottom of a set of second sliders; and a pair of limiting plates are fixed to the bottom of the closing cover.

[0009] Preferably, the sealing cover has a limiting groove on both sides; a pair of hydraulic telescopic rods are fixedly connected to both sides of the consumer machine body; an L-shaped strip is fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the pair of hydraulic telescopic rods; the pair of L-shaped strips are arranged opposite to each other, and one lateral end of the L-shaped strip is adapted to the limiting groove.

[0010] Preferably, a sliding plate is fixedly connected to both sides of the component block, and a pair of sliding plates are slidably connected in a pair of first through slots; a limiting hole is provided on the side wall of the sliding plate; a third sliding groove is provided on the opposite side wall of the consumer machine body; a limiting mechanism is provided in the third sliding groove; the limiting mechanism is used to limit the position of the sliding plate.

[0011] Preferably, the limiting mechanism includes a connecting unit and a third slider; a pair of third sliders are slidably connected in a pair of third slide grooves; a first fixing block is fixedly connected to the opposite sidewalls of the pair of third sliders; a limiting rod is fixedly connected to the sidewalls of the pair of first fixing blocks; the connecting unit is used to drive the third sliders to slide in the third slide grooves.

[0012] Preferably, the connecting unit includes a second connecting rod; one end of the second connecting rod is rotatably connected to the second slider via a third rotating shaft; the other end of the second connecting rod is rotatably connected to the third slider via a fourth rotating shaft.

[0013] Preferably, a spiral ring is fixed to the bottom of the sealing cover; a spiral groove is provided on the top of the consumer machine body.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows:

[0015] 1. The palm recognition POS machine of the present invention, through the setting of a limiting component, can fix the position of the transparent glass by driving the limiting block when the cover is closed. When the recognition camera and light source at the bottom of the transparent glass need to be replaced or repaired, the limiting can be automatically released when the cover is opened, which is convenient for staff to replace and repair. This avoids the problem that palm recognition POS machines are generally integrated, and when the recognition camera and light source are damaged, they cannot be replaced because the glass cover covers the recognition camera and light source, which greatly reduces the efficiency of the entire device in effectively identifying identity and brings certain adverse effects to actual use.

[0016] The present invention discloses a palm recognition payment machine. A connecting rod, when the second slider slides, simultaneously moves the second connecting rod and the third slider, achieving a certain degree of linkage effect. This allows for synchronous restriction, thereby simultaneously fixing the lens and component block. Furthermore, when the component block needs replacement or repair, simply opening the sealed cover allows the spring to automatically release the overall restriction, facilitating operation and enabling convenient replacement and repair by staff.

[0024] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this invention easier to understand, the invention will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown in the embodiment of the present invention, a palm recognition payment machine includes a payment machine body 1; a closed cover 2 is provided on the top of the payment machine body 1; a U-shaped light-gathering plate 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the closed cover 2; a placement plate 4 is fixedly connected between opposite side walls of the payment machine body 1 by a set of fixing rods; the placement plate 4 has a placement through groove 5; a placement box 6 is fixedly connected to the inner bottom wall of the payment machine body 1; a first through groove 7 is provided on both sides of the placement box 6; a component block 8 is placed in the placement box 6; a pair of first sliding grooves 9 are provided on opposite side walls of the payment machine body 1; a first slider 10 is slidably connected in each set of first sliding grooves 9; a limiting block 11 is fixedly connected to the side wall of the first slider 10; a limiting component is provided inside the payment machine body 1. The limiting component is used to drive the first slider 10 to slide within the first slide groove 9. During operation, the limiting component can lock the cover 2 when it is closed, and can also drive the limiting block 11 to fix the position of the transparent glass. When the identification camera and light source at the bottom of the transparent glass need to be replaced or repaired, the limiting component can automatically release the restriction when the cover 2 is opened, making it convenient for staff to replace and repair. This avoids the problem that, since the structure of the palm recognition POS machine is generally integrated, when the identification camera and light source of the POS machine are damaged, the glass cover cannot replace them because it seals the identification camera and light source, which greatly reduces the efficiency of the entire device in effectively identifying identities and brings certain adverse effects to actual use.

[0026] The limiting component includes a starting unit and a second slide 12; a set of second slides 12 are respectively opened on opposite side walls of the consumer machine body 1; a second slider 13 is slidably connected in each set of second slides 12; a first connecting rod 14 is rotatably connected to the second slider 13 via a first rotating shaft; the other end of the first connecting rod 14 is rotatably connected to the first slider 10 via a second rotating shaft; the starting unit is used to drive the second slider 13 to slide in the second slide 12. During operation, the starting unit, the second slider 13, and the first connecting rod 14 can press down on the second slider 13, thereby allowing the second slider 13 to slide in the second slide 12, which can drive the limiting block 11 to limit and fix the transparent glass, enabling normal use. When replacement and repair are required, the second slider 13 can rise automatically to release the restriction when the closed cover 2 is opened, thus facilitating the replacement and repair of the light source and recognition camera at the bottom of the transparent glass by the staff.

[0027] The starting unit includes a support plate 15; a pair of support plates 15 are fixed to the inner bottom wall of the consumer machine body 1 by a pair of springs; the tops of the pair of support plates 15 are respectively connected to the bottom of a set of second sliders 13; a pair of limiting plates 16 are fixed to the bottom of the closed cover 2. During operation, the support plates 15 and limiting plates 16 fixed by the springs can be used to lift the pair of limiting plates 16 when the internal components need to be replaced or repaired. After the limitation of the support plates 15 is released, the springs will lift the support plates 15, which will automatically release the limitation of the limiting block 11 and remove the transparent glass. This allows for the repair of the identification camera and light source components installed at the bottom of the transparent glass, facilitating replacement and repair by staff.

[0028] Both sides of the sealing cover 2 are provided with limiting grooves 17; both sides of the consumer machine body 1 are fixedly connected to a pair of hydraulic telescopic rods 18; the telescopic ends of the pair of hydraulic telescopic rods 18 are fixedly connected to L-shaped strips 28; the pair of L-shaped strips 28 are arranged opposite to each other, and one lateral end of the L-shaped strips 28 is adapted to the limiting grooves 17. During operation, the sealing cover 2 can be securely closed by the hydraulic rods and L-shaped strips 28. When it is necessary to replace internal components or repair, it can be opened relatively easily. When the sealing cover 2 is opened, the internal structure of the consumer machine body 1 will be automatically released from restriction, so that the staff can easily replace and repair the internal components.

[0029] Both sides of the component block 8 are fixedly connected to sliding plates 19, and a pair of sliding plates 19 are slidably connected in a pair of first through slots 7 respectively; a limiting hole 20 is provided on the side wall of the sliding plate 19; a third sliding groove 21 is provided on the opposite side wall of the consumer machine body 1; a limiting mechanism is provided in the third sliding groove 21; the limiting mechanism is used to limit the position of the sliding plate 19. During operation, the position of the sliding plate 19 can be limited by the limiting mechanism, thereby placing the component block 8 fixing block in the box 6 for secure fixation. When replacement or repair is required, the limiting mechanism can be used to release the restriction of the sliding plate 19 through the connection of the linkage component with the second sliding block, making it convenient for staff to replace or repair.

[0030] The limiting mechanism includes a connecting unit and a third slider 22; a pair of third sliders 22 are slidably connected in a pair of third slide grooves 21; a first fixing block 23 is fixedly connected to the opposite sidewalls of the pair of third sliders 22; a limiting rod 24 is fixedly connected to the sidewalls of the pair of first fixing blocks 23; the connecting unit is used to drive the third slider 22 to slide in the third slide groove 21. During operation, the second slider 13 moves through the connecting unit, thereby driving the third slider 22 to slide in the third slide groove 21, limiting the sliding plate 19, and thus fixing the component block 8 in the placement box 6 for secure fixation.

[0031] The connecting unit includes a second connecting rod 25; one end of the second connecting rod 25 is rotatably connected to the second slider 13 via a third rotating shaft; the other end of the second connecting rod 25 is rotatably connected to the third slider 22 via a fourth rotating shaft. During operation, the connecting rod can simultaneously move the second connecting rod 25 and the third slider 22 as the second slider 13 slides, achieving a certain degree of linkage effect and allowing them to be synchronously restricted, thereby simultaneously fixing the lens and component block 8. When it is necessary to replace or repair the component block 8, simply opening the sealing cover 2 will automatically open the overall restriction via the set spring, facilitating operation and making it convenient for staff to replace and repair.

[0032] A loop 26 is fixed to the bottom of the sealing cover 2; a loop groove 27 is provided on the top of the consumer machine body 1. When working, the loop 26 can be locked in the loop groove 27 when the sealing cover 2 is closed, so that the gap between the sealing cover 2 and the consumer machine body 1 can be sealed by the arc ring, thereby preventing dust and liquid from seeping into the consumer machine body 1 and causing short circuit damage to the internal structure.

[0033] Working principle: When the closed cover 2 is closed, the limiting component can drive the limiting block 11 to fix the position of the transparent glass. When the recognition camera and light source at the bottom of the transparent glass need to be replaced or repaired, the limiting component can automatically release the restriction when the closed cover 2 is opened, making it convenient for staff to replace and repair. This avoids the problem that, since the structure of palm recognition POS machines is generally integrated, when the recognition camera and light source are damaged, they cannot be replaced because the glass cover seals the recognition camera and light source, which greatly reduces the efficiency of the entire device in effectively identifying identities and brings certain adverse effects to actual use. The setting of the starting unit, the second slider 13, and the first connecting rod 14 can control the position of the first slider 11. The second slider 13 is pressed down, allowing it to slide within the second slide groove 12. This causes the limiting block 11 to restrain and securely fix the transparent glass, ensuring normal operation. When replacement or repair is needed, the second slider 13 can automatically rise to release the restriction when the sealing cover 2 is opened. This facilitates the replacement and repair of the light source and identification camera at the bottom of the transparent glass. The support plate 15 and limiting plate 16 are spring-fixed. When internal components need replacement or repair, the limiting plate 16 can be raised simultaneously with the opening of the sealing cover 2. Releasing the restriction on the support plate 15, the spring pushes the support plate 15 up, automatically releasing the restriction on the limiting block 11 and allowing the transparent glass to... The restriction is lifted, allowing for the repair of the identification camera and light source components located at the bottom of the transparent glass, facilitating replacement and repair by staff. The hydraulic rod and L-shaped strip 28 securely close the cover 2, and it can be easily opened when internal components need replacement or repair. Opening the cover 2 releases the internal structure of the POS machine body 1, allowing staff to easily replace and repair internal components. The limiting component restricts the position of the sliding plate 19, securing the component block 8 within the box 6. When replacement or repair is needed, the linkage component connecting to the second sliding block releases the restriction on the sliding plate 19, facilitating work. When the second slider 13 moves, it is connected via a connecting unit, which drives the third slider 22 to slide within the third slide groove 21, restricting the sliding plate 19 and thus fixing the component block 8 securely within the placement box 6. A connecting rod allows the second connecting rod 25 and the third slider 22 to move simultaneously as the second slider 13 slides, achieving a certain degree of linkage and synchronous restriction. This ensures simultaneous fixation of the lens and component block 8. Furthermore, when component block 8 needs replacement or repair, simply opening the sealing cover 2 allows the spring to automatically release the overall restriction, facilitating operation and making replacement and repair convenient for staff.The loop 26, when installed, can be engaged within the loop groove 27 when the cover 2 is closed. This allows the arc-shaped ring to seal the gap between the cover 2 and the main unit 1, preventing dust and liquids from seeping into the main unit 1 and causing short circuits or damage to the internal structure.
