Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of function keys, and specifically to a configurable function key based on RFID. Background Art

[0002] Through RFID technology, the ultrasonic function can be associated with the RFID tag inside the custom button to achieve user configurability of the ultrasonic function. Instead of configuring the association between the ultrasonic key and the ultrasonic function in the ultrasonic software interface, the user can directly replace the custom function button to achieve configurability of the function keys on the ultrasonic keyboard.

[0003] The functions and positions of the buttons on the control panel of traditional ultrasonic systems are relatively fixed and cannot be customized. Some products may open a small area to place several custom buttons, allowing users to associate the corresponding buttons with specified software functions through the software interface, thereby realizing configurable custom button software functions. This method requires users to be familiar with the software interface and configuration methods, which is not intuitive enough. For beginners and basic users, due to the high configuration complexity, they may need to seek help from on-site engineers and cannot truly achieve user customization.

[0004] Therefore, the present invention provides a configurable function key based on RFID to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

An installation box 9 is arranged below the base plate 1, and a tag reader 10 is arranged in the installation box 9; A first connecting electric plate 11 is fixedly arranged at the lower end of the electric pole 8, and a second connecting electric plate 12 is installed on the upper wall of the installation box 9 through an installation mechanism. The first connecting electric plate 11 and the second connecting electric plate 12 correspond to each other, and a synchronization mechanism is further arranged between the first connecting electric plate 11 and the tag reader 10; The synchronization mechanism includes a plurality of limiting rods 13 fixedly arranged on the upper wall of the first connecting electric plate 11, and a telescopic rod 14 is arranged between the side wall of the first connecting electric plate 11 and the tag reader 10; Pull up the function button 2 upward through the gripping opening 5, pulling up the corresponding function button 2 relative to the surrounding buttons, which facilitates taking out the label 6 through pulling the label slot 7 for replacement. During this process, the function button 2 drives the electric pole 8 to move upward, pulling one end of the telescopic rod 14 on the side wall of the first connecting circuit board 11 upward, thereby gradually pulling the telescopic rod 14 to a state close to being vertical. During the movement of the telescopic rod 14, the mounting shell at the lower end of the telescopic rod 14 is pulled to drive the label reader 10 to move outward, thereby realizing the simultaneous ejection of the label 6 and the label reader 10, facilitating the staff to replace both simultaneously, saving the replacement time. And when pulling up the function button 2 for replacement, the automatic ejection of the label reader 10 can remind the staff to perform the corresponding replacement, preventing forgetting to match and replace the label reader 10 when replacing the function button 2.

[0017] In an alternative embodiment: The shaft body mechanism includes two fixed seats 3 fixed on the upper wall of the bottom plate 1. Plug rods 16 are movably arranged on the upper walls of the two fixed seats 3. A matching plugging groove 17 is provided on the lower wall of the function button 2. A spring 4 is further provided between the bottom plate 1 and the function button 2. The spring 4 is fixedly arranged on the upper wall of the bottom plate 1 and surrounds the fixed seat 3 and the plug rod 16.

[0018] It should be noted that the basic function of the function button 2 can be realized, and under the action of the spring 4, it has the function of pressing down and rebounding.

[0019] In an alternative embodiment: Gripping openings 5 are further formed on the two side walls of the function button 2. The cross-section of the gripping opening 5 is arranged in an inverted triangle shape.

[0020] It should be noted that it is convenient for the staff to pull up the function button 2 through the gripping opening 5.

[0021] In an alternative embodiment: The installation mechanism includes an installation piece 18 fixedly arranged on the upper wall of the installation box 9. A matching installation piece 18 is connected to the lower wall of the second connecting circuit board 12. The installation piece 18 is slidably limited in the installation groove 19.

[0022] It should be noted that it is convenient to quickly separate the second connecting circuit board 12 and the installation box 9 by sliding the installation piece 18, which is convenient for installation and disassembly.

[0023] In an alternative embodiment: A cavity is provided in the installation box 9. An installation shell is slidably arranged in the cavity. The label reader 10 is placed in the installation shell. The upper end of the telescopic rod 14 is rotatably connected to the first connecting circuit board 11, and the lower end of the telescopic rod 14 is rotatably connected to the installation shell through a rotating shaft 20.

[0024] It should be noted that by driving the electric pole 8 to move upward with the function button 2, one end of the telescopic rod 14 on the side wall of the first connecting electric plate 11 is driven to move upward, so as to gradually pull the telescopic rod 14 to a state close to vertical. During the movement of the telescopic rod 14, the installation shell at the lower end of the telescopic rod 14 is driven to move the label reader 10 outward.

[0025] In an optional embodiment: a sliding groove is provided between the installation box 9 and the cavity, and the telescopic rod 14 moves in the sliding groove.

[0026] Meanwhile, the content not described in detail in this specification belongs to the prior art well-known to those skilled in the art.

[0027] When the device is in use, by installing the corresponding label 6 and label reader 10, and cooperating with the connection of the electric pole 8, the first connecting electric plate 11 and the second connecting electric plate 12, the rfid signal emitted by the label 6 can be received at the label reader 10; When the function button 2 is in normal use, the finger presses the function button 2. At this time, the function button 2 drives the insertion rod 16 to retract into the fixed seat 3, and at the same time the spring 4 is compressed to realize the normal function of the button; When it is necessary to match and replace the label 6 in the function button 2 and the label reader 10 in the installation box 9, the function button 2 is pulled upward through the gripping port 5, and the corresponding function button 2 is pulled up compared with the surrounding buttons, which is convenient for pulling out the label 6 through the label slot 7 for replacement. During this process, the function button 2 drives the electric pole 8 to move upward, and one end of the telescopic rod 14 on the side wall of the first connecting electric plate 11 is driven to move upward, so as to gradually pull the telescopic rod 14 to a state close to vertical. During the movement of the telescopic rod 14, the installation shell at the lower end of the telescopic rod 14 is driven to move the label reader 10 outward, so as to realize the simultaneous ejection of the label 6 and the label reader 10, which is convenient for the staff to replace the two at the same time, saving the replacement time. And when the function button 2 is pulled up for replacement, the automatic ejection of the label reader 10 can remind the staff to perform the corresponding replacement, preventing the staff from forgetting to match and replace the label reader 10 when replacing the function button 2.
