[0020] Reference Figure 1 , showing a schematic diagram of a heat dissipation device provided in an embodiment of the present application; referring to Figure 2 , which shows a schematic diagram of a touch control module provided in an embodiment of the present application; referring to Figure 3 , shows a schematic diagram of a pressure-sensitive component provided by an embodiment of the present application. Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the parking space management system includes: a control module 10 , an identification module 20 , a prompt module 30 and a plurality of blocking modules 40 .

[0021] The identification module 20, the prompt module 30 and the blocking module 40 are all electrically connected to the control module 10. The identification module 20 is used to identify the information of the vehicle to be parked that is to enter the parking lot. The parking lot has multiple parking spaces. A blocking module 40 is used to be installed in one parking space, and the blocking module 40 has a blocking state and an avoidance state. When the identification module 20 identifies the information of the vehicle to be parked, the control module 10 controls the prompt module 30 to output prompt information, and the prompt information is used to indicate all vacant parking spaces. When the prompt module 30 receives a selection instruction, the selection instruction is used to select a target vacant parking space from all vacant parking spaces, and the control module 10 controls the blocking module 40 on the target vacant parking space to switch from a blocking state to an avoidance state, so that the vehicle to be parked can enter the target vacant parking space and park.

[0022] In the embodiment of the present application, since the recognition module 20, the prompt module 30 and the blocking module 40 are all electrically connected to the control module 10, the recognition module 20 can send the information of the recognized vehicle to be parked to the control module 10, and the control module 10 can perform corresponding control on the prompt module 30 and the blocking module 40. In addition, the blocking module 40 can be installed in each parking space of the parking lot, and the blocking module 40 has a blocking state and an avoidance state, so that the control module 10 can control the blocking module 40 so that the blocking module 40 switches between the blocking state and the avoidance state. Specifically, when the recognition module 20 recognizes the information of the vehicle to be parked, it is equivalent to that a vehicle needs to be parked in a parking space in the parking lot. Therefore, when the vehicle is recognized by the recognition module 20, the control module 10 can control the prompt module 30 to output prompt information, that is, the prompt module 30 indicates all vacant parking spaces; once the prompt module 30 receives the selection instruction, it is equivalent to the user selecting the target vacant parking space among all the vacant parking spaces. The control module 10 can control the blocking module 40 on the target vacant parking space to switch from a blocking state to an avoidance state, so that the vehicle to be parked can drive into the target vacant parking space to park. That is, in the embodiment of the present application, by setting the recognition module 20, the prompt module 30, the blocking module 40 and the control module 10, when the recognition module 20 recognizes the vehicle to be parked, the prompt module 30 can prompt all the vacant parking spaces, so that the car owner can know the vacant parking spaces in the current parking lot. Once the target vacant parking space is selected, the control module 10 controls the blocking module 40 on the target vacant parking space to switch to the avoidance state, so that the vehicle to be parked can enter the target vacant parking space for parking, thereby facilitating the car owner to park in the parking lot and facilitating the management of the parking spaces in the parking lot.

[0023] For example, the parking lot has a plurality of parking spaces, namely parking space A, parking space B, parking space C and parking space D. A vehicle has been parked in parking space C, and no vehicle is parked in parking space A, parking space B and parking space D. Parking spaces A, parking space B and parking space D are vacant parking spaces. Once the vehicle to be parked is identified by the recognition module 20, the prompt module 30 can prompt parking space A, parking space B and parking space D, and these three parking spaces are vacant parking spaces. When the recognition module 20 receives a selection instruction, and the selection instruction indicates to select parking space B, it is equivalent to that the vehicle to be parked is about to park in parking space B, so that the control module 10 can control the blocking module 40 on parking space B to switch from the blocking state to the avoidance state, so that the vehicle to be parked can enter parking space B for parking.

[0024] It should be noted that when the blocking module 40 is in the blocking state, the blocking module 40 blocks the vehicle from entering the parking space; when the blocking module 40 is in the avoiding state, the blocking module 40 releases the blocking so that the vehicle can enter the parking space.

[0025] In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, the control module 10 may be a controller, and of course, the control module 10 may also be a chip with a control function, or a circuit board with a control function. The specific type of the control module 10 is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0026] In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, the identification module 20 and the control module 10 can be electrically connected through a connecting wire. Similarly, the prompt module 30 and the control module 10 can also be electrically connected through a connecting wire, and the blocking module 40 can also be electrically connected to the control module 10 through a connecting wire.

[0027] In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, when there is no vehicle parked in the parking space, the blocking module 40 is in a blocking state; when there is a vehicle parked in the parking space, the blocking module 40 is in an avoiding state.

[0028] In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, in actual application, the recognition module 20 and the prompt module 30 can be set at the entrance of the parking lot. In addition, in some embodiments, the recognition module 20 can be set at the entrance and exit of the parking lot.

[0029] In addition, in some embodiments, the blocking module 40 may include a first driving member 41 and a first blocking rod 42; the first driving member 41 is electrically connected to the control module 10, and the first blocking rod 42 is connected to the first driving member 41, and the first driving member 41 is used to drive the first blocking rod 42 to rotate relative to the first driving member 41, so that the first blocking rod 42 has a blocking state and an avoidance state, and the first driving member 41 is used to be installed at the edge of the parking space; when the first blocking rod 42 is in the blocking state, the first blocking rod 42 extends along the width direction of the parking space; when the first blocking rod 42 is in the avoidance state, the first blocking rod 42 extends in a direction perpendicular to the ground of the parking space.

[0030] Since the first driving member 41 is electrically connected to the control module 10, and the first blocking rod 42 is connected to the first driving member 41, the control module 10 can control the first driving member 41 so that the first driving member 41 drives the first blocking rod 42 to rotate relative to the first driving member 41, so that the state of the first blocking rod 42 changes, so that the first blocking rod 42 switches between the blocking state and the avoidance state. Specifically, once the recognition module 20 recognizes the information of the vehicle to be parked, and the prompt module 30 receives the selection instruction, the control module 10 can control the first driving member 41 on the target vacant parking space to operate, so that the first driving member 41 drives the first blocking rod 42 to switch from the blocking state to the avoidance state, at which time, the first blocking rod 42 extends in a direction perpendicular to the ground of the parking space; when the control module 10 controls the first driving member 41 to drive the first blocking rod 42 to switch from the avoidance state to the blocking state, at which time, the first blocking rod 42 extends in the direction of the width of the parking space. That is, by providing the first driving member 41 and the first blocking member, the blocking module 40 can block the parking space so that the vehicle cannot enter the parking space, and the blocking module 40 can release the blocking of the parking space so that the vehicle can enter the parking space.

[0031] It should be noted that the width direction of the parking space is parallel to the width direction of the vehicle, and the width direction of the vehicle refers to the direction from the driver's seat to the co-driver's seat of the vehicle.

[0032] In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, the first driving member 41 can be a motor, and the type of the motor can be a servo motor, and of course, the type of the motor can also be a stepping motor. In addition, the first driving member 41 can be connected to the first blocking rod 42 through a connecting assembly, so as to drive the first blocking rod 42 to rotate relative to the first driving member 41.

[0033] In addition, in practical applications, the first driving member 41 can be installed at the edge of the entrance of the parking space, and the first driving member 41 is located at one side of the parking space, so that when the first driving member 41 drives the first driving rod to be in the blocking state, the first blocking rod 42 can be located at the entrance of the parking space as much as possible to block the vehicle from entering the parking space, and when the first blocking rod 42 is in the avoidance state, the first blocking rod 42 can not affect the vehicle from entering the parking space as much as possible. In addition, the length of the first blocking rod 42 can be one third to one half of the width of the parking space, so as to avoid the problem that the length of the first blocking rod 42 is too long and the first blocking rod 42 occupies more space when the first blocking rod 42 is in the avoidance state.

[0034] In addition, in some embodiments, the blocking module 40 may include a second driving member 43 and a second blocking rod 44; the second driving member 43 is electrically connected to the control module 10, the second blocking rod 44 is connected to the second driving member 43, the second driving member 43 is used to be installed under the ground at the entrance of the parking space, and the second driving member 43 is used to drive the second blocking rod 44 to move so that the second blocking rod 44 has a blocking state and an avoidance state; when the second blocking rod 44 is in the blocking state, the second blocking rod 44 extends outward from the ground, and the second blocking rod 44 extends along the width of the parking space; when the second blocking rod 44 is in the avoidance state, the second blocking rod 44 is retracted into the ground.

[0035] Since the second driving member 43 is electrically connected to the control module 10 and the second blocking rod 44 is connected to the second driving member 43, the control module 10 can control the second driving member 43 so that the second driving member 43 drives the second blocking rod 44 to move, thereby changing the state of the second blocking rod 44 and switching the second blocking rod 44 between the blocking state and the avoidance state. Specifically, once the recognition module 20 recognizes the information of the vehicle to be parked, and the prompt module 30 receives the selection instruction, the control module 10 can control the second driving member 43 on the target vacant parking space to operate, so that the second driving member 43 drives the second blocking rod 44 to switch from the avoidance state to the blocking state. At this time, the second blocking rod 44 is driven by the second driving member 43 to move outside the ground of the parking space, and the second blocking rod 44 extends along the width direction of the parking space, so as to block the vehicle from entering the parking space; when the control module 10 controls the second driving member 43 to drive the second blocking rod 44 to switch from the blocking state to the avoidance state, at this time, the second blocking rod 44 is driven by the second driving member 43 to move, and the second blocking rod 44 is retracted to the ground. That is, by setting the second driving member 43 and the second blocking member, it is convenient for the blocking module 40 to block the parking space so that the vehicle cannot enter the parking space, and it is also convenient for the blocking module 40 to release the blocking of the parking space so that the vehicle can enter the parking space.

[0036] In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, the second driving member 43 can be a motor, and the type of the motor can be a servo motor. Of course, the type of the motor can also be a stepper motor. Of course, the second driving member 43 can also be a cylinder. For the specific type of the second driving member 43, the embodiment of the present application is not limited here. In addition, the second driving member 43 can be connected to the second blocking rod 44 through a connecting assembly, thereby driving the second blocking rod 44 to move relative to the second driving member 43.

[0037] In addition, in practical applications, the second driving member 43 can be installed under the ground at the entrance of the parking space, that is, the second driving member 43 can be buried under the ground of the parking space, and a groove is set on the ground at the entrance of the parking space, and the second driving rod is located in the groove, so that when the second driving member 43 drives the second driving rod to be in a blocking state, the second blocking rod 44 can extend from the groove and protrude from the ground to block the vehicle from entering the parking space, and when the second blocking rod 44 is in an avoidance state, the second blocking rod 44 can be retracted in the groove and can be flush with the ground. In addition, the length of the second blocking rod 44 can be one-third to one-half of the width of the parking space, so as to avoid the problem that the length of the second blocking rod 44 is too long, resulting in a longer groove on the ground.

[0038] In addition, in some embodiments, the prompt module 30 may include a bracket and a display screen; the display screen is installed on the bracket, and the display screen is electrically connected to the control module 10, and the display screen is used to display the prompt information.

[0039] Since the display screen is electrically connected to the control module 10, once the identification module 20 identifies the information of the vehicle to be parked, the control module 10 can control the display screen to display all the vacant parking spaces in the parking lot, so that the car owner can directly see all the vacant parking spaces from the display screen, which is convenient for the car owner to select a parking space to be parked from multiple vacant parking spaces, and the selected parking space is used as the target vacant parking space. That is, by setting up the display screen, it is convenient for the car owner to intuitively know all the vacant parking spaces in the parking lot, and then it is convenient for the car owner to select a parking space to be parked. In addition, the display screen is installed on the bracket, so the bracket can effectively support the display screen to ensure that the display screen is relatively stable.

[0040] It should be noted that the display screen may be a display screen with a touch function, so that the car owner can directly click or slide on the display screen to select a parking space to be parked from multiple vacant parking spaces.

[0041] In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, all vacant parking spaces can be displayed on the display screen, and each vacant parking space corresponds to a virtual selection button, which is used to select the usage time for the vacant parking space. For example, vacant parking space A corresponds to virtual selection button A, and the owner can select the usage time for vacant parking space A by clicking virtual selection button A on the display screen, where the usage time can be an integer multiple of half an hour, for example, the usage time is 1 hour, and for another example, the usage time is 1.5 hours.

[0042] In addition, the remaining usage time of the parking spaces that have been used except for the vacant parking spaces can also be displayed on the display screen. For example, the display screen displays parking space B, and a vehicle is already parked in parking space B. Parking space B is a used parking space, and when parking space B is displayed, the remaining usage time of parking space B is also displayed accordingly. For example, car owner A selects parking space B for parking, and car owner A selects to use parking space B for 3 hours. After 1 hour, after car owner B's vehicle is recognized by the recognition module, parking space B is displayed on the display screen, and the remaining usage time of parking space B is displayed as 2 hours.

[0043] In addition, in an embodiment of the present application, the display screen may also display the available time of each of the vacant parking spaces. For example, the display screen displays vacant parking space M, vacant parking space N, and vacant parking space Z, and for vacant parking space M, the available time of vacant parking space M will be displayed, for vacant parking space N, the available time of vacant parking space N will be displayed, and for vacant parking space Z, the available time of vacant parking space Z will be displayed. For example, the available time of vacant parking space M is displayed as 5h, the available time of vacant parking space N is displayed as 24h, and the available time of vacant parking space Z is displayed as 72h. Through such a setting, it is convenient for car owners to choose a suitable vacant parking space for parking according to their own needs and the length of time they need to park.

[0044] In addition, in some embodiments, the prompt module 30 may further include a voice recognition unit 31 , which is integrated into the display screen and used to recognize voice to generate a selection instruction.

[0045] Since the voice recognition unit 31 is integrated in the display screen, once the recognition module 20 recognizes the information of the vehicle to be parked, the control module 10 can control the display screen to display all the vacant parking spaces in the parking lot, so that the car owner can speak the parking space to be selected to the display screen, and the voice recognition unit 31 can generate a selection instruction after receiving the car owner's voice, so as to select the parking space to be parked from multiple vacant parking spaces, and the selected parking space is used as the target vacant parking space. That is, by setting the voice recognition unit 31, it can be further facilitated for the car owner to select the target vacant parking space on the display screen for parking.

[0046] In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, once all parking spaces in the parking lot are occupied by vehicles, when the recognition module 20 recognizes the vehicle to be parked, the control module 10 can also control the display screen to display the parking space full information, so that the car owner can quickly know that the current parking lot is no longer available for parking.

[0047] In addition, in some embodiments, the recognition module 20 may include a mounting frame and a camera assembly; the camera assembly is installed on the mounting frame, the camera assembly is electrically connected to the control module 10, and the camera assembly is used to capture the license plate information of the vehicle to be parked and transmit the license plate information to the control module 10.

[0048] Since the camera assembly is electrically connected to the control module 10, once the vehicle to be parked moves to the camera assembly, the camera assembly can capture the license plate information of the vehicle to be parked, and transmit the license plate information to the control module 10, so that the control module 10 can determine that there is a vehicle that needs to enter the parking space after receiving the license plate information, and then the control module 10 controls the display screen to display all vacant parking spaces. That is, by setting the camera assembly, it is convenient for the control module 10 to determine whether there is a vehicle that needs to enter the parking space for parking. In addition, the camera assembly is installed on the mounting frame, so the mounting frame can effectively support the camera assembly to ensure that the camera assembly is relatively stable.

[0049] It should be noted that the control module 10 may store a recognition model, which is used to recognize the license plate image to determine the vehicle information. The recognition model may be a CNN model. Of course, the recognition model may also be other neural network models, for example, the recognition model is an LNN model. This is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0050] In addition, in the embodiment of the present application, when the recognition module 20 recognizes the information of the vehicle to be parked again, the control module 10 controls the blocking module 40 on the target vacant parking space to switch from the avoidance state to the blocking state.

[0051] Through such a setting, once the recognition module 20 recognizes the information of the vehicle to be parked again, it indicates that the vehicle to be parked needs to leave the current parking space and the vehicle to be parked has left the target vacant parking space, so that the control module 10 controls the blocking module 40 on the target vacant parking space to switch from the avoidance state to the blocking state, so that the blocking module 40 is in the blocking state again to ensure that other vehicles will not enter the parking space.

[0052] In addition, identification modules 20 can be set at the entrance and exit of the parking lot. When the vehicle to be parked moves to the entrance, it indicates that the vehicle to be parked needs to park in the parking lot, so that the control module 10 controls the blocking module 40 on the target vacant parking space to switch from the blocking state to the avoidance state, and the vehicle to be parked can drive into the target vacant parking space to park; once the vehicle to be parked moves to the identification module 20 at the exit, the identification module 20 recognizes the information of the vehicle to be parked again, indicating that the vehicle to be parked has left the target vacant parking space and needs to leave the parking lot, and the control module 10 controls the blocking module 40 on the target parking space to switch from the avoidance state to the blocking state.

[0053] In addition, when the identification module 20 identifies the information of the vehicle to be parked, the information can be sent to the control module 10, so that in the embodiment of the present application, when the control module 10 receives the information of the vehicle to be parked again, the control module 10 controls the blocking module 40 on the target vacant parking space to switch from the avoidance state to the blocking state. After the vehicle to be parked is identified by the identification module 20, the identification module 20 sends the information of the vehicle to be parked to the control module 10, and after the vehicle to be parked is identified by the identification module 20 again, the identification module 20 sends the information of the vehicle to be parked to the control module 10, so that the control module 10 receives the information of the vehicle to be parked again, indicating that the vehicle to be parked needs to leave the parking space.

[0054] In addition, in some embodiments, the parking space management system may further include a plurality of detection components 50; the plurality of detection components 50 are electrically connected to the control module 10, one detection component 50 is used to be installed in one parking space, and the detection component 50 is used to detect whether a vehicle is parked in the parking space.

[0055] Since the multiple detection elements 50 are all electrically connected to the control module 10, the information detected by each detection element 50 can be transmitted to the control module 10. Therefore, in practical applications, once the detection element 50 is installed on each parking space, the parking space is detected by the detection element 50, and the detected information is transmitted to the control module 10. The control module 10 can determine all the vacant parking spaces in the current parking lot, so that after the identification module 20 identifies the vehicle to be parked, the control module 10 can control the prompt module 30 to output prompt information. That is, by setting the detection element 50, it is convenient for the control module 10 to control the prompt module 30 to output prompt information according to the information detected by the detection element 50.

[0056] It should be noted that the detection member 50 may be a sensor. The type of the sensor may be selected according to actual needs, for example, the sensor is an infrared sensor. The specific type of the sensor is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.

[0057] In addition, in some embodiments, when the detection component 50 detects that a vehicle is parked in the parking space, the detection component 50 sends a first message to the control module 10; when the detection component 50 detects that no vehicle is parked in the parking space, the detection component 50 sends a second message to the control module 10; the control module 10 is configured to control the blocking module 40 to switch from the avoidance state to the blocking state when the second message is received after receiving the first message.

[0058] Among them, when the control module 10 receives the second information after receiving the first information, it indicates that the vehicle parked in the current parking space has left the current parking space, so that the parking space becomes a vacant parking space. The control module 10 can control the blocking module 40 to switch from the avoidance state to the blocking state to prevent other vehicles from entering the parking space.

[0059] In addition, in some embodiments, the control module 10 is also used to count the number of vehicles entering the parking lot. Through such a setting, the control module 10 can count and store the number of vehicles, so that the control module 10 can be set to determine the number of vehicles entering the parking lot within a set time.

[0060] It should be noted that the control module 10 can be integrated with a communication module. The parking lot manager can connect the communication module through an electronic device to obtain the number of vehicles entering the parking lot from the control module 10, which is convenient for the manager to determine the number of vehicles entering the parking lot at a preset time, and then facilitate the manager to make an estimate of the profitability of the parking lot.

[0061] In addition, when the remaining usage time of an already used parking space is displayed on the display screen, the detection element 50 can be used to detect whether there is a vehicle parked in the parking space, so that the control module 10 determines the parking time of the vehicle in the parking space based on the information sent by the detection element 50, and then the control module 10 can control the display screen to display the remaining usage time of the already used parking space.

[0062] In addition, in the embodiments of the present application, in actual applications, the parking space management system provided by the present application can be coordinated with the management system of the local parking lot. For example, the parking space management system provided by the embodiments of the present application can be coordinated with the system of the parking lot of the property of community A.

[0063] In the embodiment of the present application, since the recognition module 20, the prompt module 30 and the blocking module 40 are all electrically connected to the control module 10, the recognition module 20 can send the information of the recognized vehicle to be parked to the control module 10, and the control module 10 can perform corresponding control on the prompt module 30 and the blocking module 40. In addition, the blocking module 40 can be installed in each parking space of the parking lot, and the blocking module 40 has a blocking state and an avoidance state, so that the control module 10 can control the blocking module 40 so that the blocking module 40 switches between the blocking state and the avoidance state. Specifically, when the recognition module 20 recognizes the information of the vehicle to be parked, it is equivalent to that a vehicle needs to be parked in a parking space in the parking lot. Therefore, when the vehicle is recognized by the recognition module 20, the control module 10 can control the prompt module 30 to output prompt information, that is, the prompt module 30 indicates all vacant parking spaces; once the prompt module 30 receives the selection instruction, it is equivalent to the user selecting the target vacant parking space among all the vacant parking spaces. The control module 10 can control the blocking module 40 on the target vacant parking space to switch from a blocking state to an avoidance state, so that the vehicle to be parked can drive into the target vacant parking space to park. That is, in the embodiment of the present application, by setting the recognition module 20, the prompt module 30, the blocking module 40 and the control module 10, when the recognition module 20 recognizes the vehicle to be parked, the prompt module 30 can prompt all the vacant parking spaces, so that the car owner can know the vacant parking spaces in the current parking lot. Once the target vacant parking space is selected, the control module 10 controls the blocking module 40 on the target vacant parking space to switch to the avoidance state, so that the vehicle to be parked can enter the target vacant parking space for parking, thereby facilitating the car owner to park in the parking lot and facilitating the management of the parking spaces in the parking lot.
