Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of highway equipment, and in particular to an automatic card-taking device for highways. Background Art

[0002] The automatic card collection device on highways is an automated device installed at the entrance lane of highway toll stations, aiming to reduce the pressure of manual toll collection and improve traffic efficiency.

[0003] Existing automatic card retrieval devices on highways are located a certain distance from the lane. Drivers need to park their vehicles as close to the edge of the entrance lane to reach the switch and card access point. However, some drivers lack driving experience and are unable to park their vehicles at the appropriate distance from the automatic card retrieval device. Drivers are required to unbuckle their seatbelts and stretch their bodies and arms to reach the switch and card access point. The distance is too far and drivers may even need to get out of the vehicle to retrieve the card. This type of automatic card retrieval device on highways makes it inconvenient for drivers to retrieve the card. Excessive force to reach the switch and card access point can also lead to unstable card retrieval, disrupting traffic.

[0004] The inventors discovered at least the following problems during the implementation of this embodiment:

[0005] The existing automatic card-taking device on highways makes it inconvenient for drivers to take out the cards, and it also easily leads to unstable card taking, affecting traffic. Summary of the Invention
