[0025] As mentioned earlier, with economic development, the flow of people entering and leaving the country is becoming increasingly frequent, and the passenger flow at border inspection ports continues to rise. Especially during peak periods such as holidays and large-scale exhibitions, passenger flow explodes, exceeding the port's designed capacity for personnel information verification, leading to severe congestion and long passenger delays. Currently, ports mainly use fixed manual inspection counters and fixed self-service inspection channels for inspection. However, fixed inspection facilities, due to their fixed location and number, cannot be dynamically adjusted and flexibly deployed according to real-time passenger flow distribution. During peak periods, they are difficult to effectively manage passenger flow, resulting in excessively long waiting times and a poor passenger inspection experience.
[0026] This application provides an inspection device comprising: a housing, an inspection unit, and a moving unit. The housing includes a first body and a second body, connected by a first connecting unit. The first body is configured to be at least partially housed within the second body, and after rotating along the rotation axis of the first connecting unit, it is positioned outside the second body. The inspection unit is at least partially disposed within the first body, and the moving unit is connected to the housing. The moving unit is used to move the housing under external force. The inspection unit is used to perform information verification. Therefore, when the inspection device needs to be activated, it can be moved to the target location and the folded housing can be unfolded for information verification, allowing for rapid deployment and use at entry / exit ports, thus improving inspection speed. Furthermore, after use, the inspection device can be stored by folding the housing, saving space and protecting the inspection unit. Compared with existing technologies, the inspection equipment provided in this application can be dynamically adjusted and flexibly deployed according to real-time passenger flow distribution, thereby effectively guiding passenger flow during peak periods, improving inspection efficiency and passenger inspection experience.
[0027] The inspection equipment provided in this application is described below through examples.
[0028] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram illustrating the method for checking the storage status of equipment, as provided in an embodiment of this application. Figure 1 As shown, the inspection device 100 includes a receiving box 101, an inspection unit 102, and a moving unit 103. The receiving box 101 includes a first box body 1011 and a second box body 1012. The first box body 1011 and the second box body 1012 are connected by a first connecting unit 104. The first box body 1011 is configured to be at least partially contained within the second box body 1012, and after rotating along the rotation axis of the first connecting unit 104, the first box body 1011 is located outside the second box body 1012. The inspection unit 102 is at least partially disposed within the first box body 1011, and the moving unit 103 is connected to the receiving box 101. The moving unit 103 is used to move the receiving box 101 under the action of an external force. The inspection unit 102 is used to perform information inspection.
[0029] The housing 101 comprises a first housing 1011 and a second housing 1012. The external dimensions of the first housing 1011 are designed to be at least partially embedded and accommodated within the internal space of the second housing 1012. The first housing 1011 and the second housing 1012 are connected by a first connecting unit 104. The first housing 1011 can rotate relative to the second housing 1012 about a rotation axis formed by the first connecting unit 104.
[0030] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of an inspection device in an unfolded state according to an embodiment of this application, as shown below. Figure 2As shown, the first connecting unit 104 is a hinge, one side of which is attached to one side of the first housing 1011, and the other side of which is attached to one side of the second housing 1012.
[0031] A movable unit 103 is connected to the bottom of the container 101, which can move the container 101 under the action of external force. An inspection unit 102 is located inside the container 101, and is at least partially located within the first housing 1011. The inspection unit 102 can perform information verification, comparing the collected information on documents, goods, and personnel with the port's backend database in real time. In one example, the inspection unit 102 can read and verify the authenticity of various travel documents (such as passports and visas) and the holder's identity information, and supports optical recognition and electronic chip reading. In another example, the inspection unit 102 has the ability to scan and analyze cargo identification (such as barcodes, QR codes, and RFID tags) to verify cargo information.
[0032] When the inspection equipment 100 is in a stored state (e.g.) Figure 1 When the first housing 1011 is at least partially housed within the second housing 1012, the space occupied by the housing 101 is minimized. When the inspection equipment 100 needs to be activated, the housing 101 is moved to the working position by the moving unit 103 under external force. While keeping the second housing 1012 stationary, the first housing 1011 is rotated along the rotation axis of the first connecting unit 104, causing the first housing 1011 to detach from the interior space of the second housing 1012 and be located outside the second housing 1012. At this time, the housing 101 is in an unfolded state (as shown). Figure 2 As shown, the inspection unit 102, housed within the first housing 1011, is exposed, allowing operators to verify information. After use, rotating the first housing 1011 in the reverse direction allows it to re-enter the second housing 1012 along its original path, restoring the inspection device 100 to its stored state and protecting the inspection unit 102 within the housing 101. The stored housing 101 can be moved to a storage location by the moving unit 103 under external force for future use.
[0033] In this embodiment, the inspection device 100 includes a receiving box 101, an inspection unit 102, and a moving unit 103. The receiving box 101 includes a first box body 1011 and a second box body 1012. The first box body 1011 and the second box body 1012 are connected by a first connecting unit 104. The first box body 1011 is configured to be at least partially contained within the second box body 1012, and after rotating along the rotation axis of the first connecting unit 104, the first box body 1011 is located outside the second box body 1012. The inspection unit 102 is at least partially disposed within the first box body 1011, and the moving unit 103 is connected to the receiving box 101. The moving unit 103 is used to move the receiving box 101 under the action of an external force. The inspection unit 102 is used to perform information inspection. Therefore, when the inspection equipment 100 needs to be activated, it can be moved to the target location and the folded container 101 unfolded for information verification. This allows for rapid deployment and use at immigration checkpoints, improving inspection speed. Furthermore, after use, the inspection equipment 100 can be stored by folding it back into the container 101, saving space and protecting the inspection unit 102. Compared to existing technologies, the inspection equipment 100 provided in this application can be dynamically adjusted and flexibly deployed according to real-time passenger flow distribution, effectively managing passenger flow during peak periods and improving inspection efficiency and passenger experience.
[0034] Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of another deployed state of an inspection device provided in an embodiment of this application, as shown below. Figure 3 As shown, the verification unit 102 includes a host 1021, an input subunit 1022, and a display subunit 1023. The host 1021 and the input subunit 1022 are housed within a first enclosure 1011, and the display subunit 1023 is connected to the top surface of a second enclosure 1012. The host 1021 is electrically connected to both the input subunit 1022 and the display subunit 1023. The input subunit 1022 receives input information and transmits it to the host 1021. The host 1021 displays the input information through the display subunit 1023 to perform information verification based on the input information.
[0035] The verification unit 102 consists of a host 1021, an input subunit 1022, and a display subunit 1023. The host 1021 and the input subunit 1022 are installed inside a first housing 1011, and the display subunit 1023 is connected to the top surface of a second housing 1012. The host 1021 is electrically connected to both the input subunit 1022 and the display subunit 1023. In one example, a dedicated multi-function interface socket is provided on the first housing 1011. When the verification unit 102 is working, an external power cord and an external network cable are connected to the corresponding power supply interface and data communication interface of the socket in the first housing 1011, respectively. Power is supplied to the host 1021, the input subunit 1022, and the display subunit 1023 through the power cable harness inside the socket, while a data communication link is established between the host 1021 and the input subunit 1022 and the display subunit 1023 through the data cable.
[0036] The data entry subunit 1022 can receive data entry information and transmit it to the host 1021. Specifically, the data entry subunit 1022 may include input devices and data acquisition devices. Input devices may be physical keyboards or touchpads, allowing manual input of text, numbers, or commands. Data acquisition devices may include document readers, biometric data collectors, or barcode / QR code scanners. Document readers may include contactless IC chip readers for reading biometric and personal information stored in the chips of electronic passports and electronic visas conforming to ICAO standards; contact chip readers for reading contact chips of ID cards, residence permits, and specific visas; and magnetic stripe readers for reading the machine-readable zone (MRZ) information on the back of passports, visas, and travel documents. Biometric data collectors may include fingerprint scanners for collecting passenger fingerprint information and cameras for collecting passenger facial images. Barcode / QR code scanners are used for quickly reading boarding passes, baggage tags, customs declaration QR codes, and cargo label codes.
[0037] The host computer 1021 is the core processing hub of the inspection unit 102, capable of running border inspection-specific clearance and inspection system software. The host computer 1021 typically employs a high-performance industrial computer or a dedicated server. The host computer 1021 receives input information transmitted from the input subunit 1022 via an internal network cable, performing real-time verification of document authenticity, biometric comparison, and database checks. The host computer 1021 sends the input information and inspection results (e.g., document authenticity, comparison result photo, and / or risk warnings such as "pass / fail / requires manual intervention") to the display subunit 1023 for display. In one example, the host computer 1021 is connected to a mouse peripheral for interactive control by the operator. The display subunit 1023 provides the operator with intuitive and clear inspection information and a user interface. The operator can perform operations based on the input information and inspection results displayed on the display subunit 1023. The display subunit 1023 can be a display screen or a touch screen, etc.
[0038] In this embodiment, the verification unit 102 includes a host 1021, an input subunit 1022, and a display subunit 1023. The host 1021 and the input subunit 1022 are disposed within a first housing 1011, and the display subunit 1023 is connected to the top surface of a second housing 1012. The host 1021 is electrically connected to both the input subunit 1022 and the display subunit 1023. The input subunit 1022 receives input information and transmits it to the host 1021. The host 1021 displays the input information through the display subunit 1023 for information verification. Through the efficient collaboration of the host 1021, the input subunit 1022, and the display subunit 1023 disposed within the housing 101, information collection, verification, and result output are achieved, improving the efficiency and accuracy of information verification. This enables efficient and convenient verification operations and enhances the passenger verification experience.
[0039] In one possible implementation, the first housing 1011 further includes a tray 1013. The input subunit 1022 is connected to the tray 1013, which is connected to the inner surface of the first housing 1011 via a second connecting unit 105. The tray 1013 is configured to fit against the inner surface of the first housing 1011, so that the input subunit 1022 is housed within the first housing 1011, and after rotation along the rotation axis of the second connecting unit 105, the input subunit 1022 is positioned outside the first housing 1011.
[0040] like Figure 2As shown, a tray 1013 is provided inside the first housing 1011. One edge of the tray 1013 is connected to the inner surface of the first housing 1011 via a second connecting unit 105, allowing the tray 1013 to rotate relative to the inner surface of the first housing 1011 about a rotation axis formed by the second connecting unit 105. In one example, the second connecting unit 105 is a hinge. An input subunit 1022 is connected to the tray 1013. When the inspection device 100 is in the retracted state, the back of the tray 1013 is flush with the inner surface of the first housing 1011, and the input subunit 1022, fixed to the front of the tray 1013, is housed within the first housing 1011 along with the tray 1013. When the inspection device 100 needs to be activated, after rotating the first housing 1011, the tray 1013 is rotated along the rotation axis of the second connecting unit 105, so that the front of the tray 1013 forms a specific angle with the inner surface of the first housing 1011, so that the data entry subunit 1022 is located outside the first housing 1011, allowing the operator to use the data entry subunit 1022 for inspection operations. When the inspection device 100 is no longer in use, rotating the tray 1013 in the opposite direction will restore the tray 1013 to a state of contact with the inner surface of the first housing 1011, allowing the data entry subunit 1022 to be stored back inside the first housing 1011.
[0041] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of another unfolded state of an inspection device provided in an embodiment of this application, as shown below. Figure 4 As shown, the front of the pallet 1013 is at a 90-degree angle to the inner surface of the first box 1011.
[0042] In this embodiment, the first housing 1011 further includes a tray 1013. The input subunit 1022 is connected to the tray 1013, and the tray 1013 is connected to the inner surface of the first housing 1011 via a second connecting unit 105. The tray 1013 is configured to fit against the inner surface of the first housing 1011, so that the input subunit 1022 is housed within the first housing 1011, and after rotation along the rotation axis of the second connecting unit 105, the input subunit 1022 is positioned outside the first housing 1011. The rotation structure of the second connecting unit 105 allows for convenient changes in the position of the tray 1013 and the input sub-unit 1022 relative to the first housing 1011, enabling quick and reliable switching between the working position of the input sub-unit 1022 outside the first housing 1011 and the storage and protection position inside the first housing 1011. This improves the ease of use and compactness of the inspection equipment 100, ensures the safety of the input sub-unit 1022 and saves space when the inspection equipment 100 is stored.
[0043] In one possible implementation, the first housing 1011 is provided with a first positioning hole 106, and the tray 1013 is provided with a first fixing unit 107. The first fixing unit 107 is configured to connect with the first positioning hole 106 after the tray 1013 rotates along the rotation axis of the second connecting unit 105, so as to fix the included angle between the tray 1013 and the inner surface of the first housing 1011.
[0044] The inner surface of the first housing 1011 is provided with a first positioning hole 106 for positioning. Correspondingly, a first fixing unit 107 is installed on the tray 1013. The first fixing unit 107 and the first positioning hole 106 cooperate to fix the position of the tray 1013 relative to the inner surface of the first housing 1011. After the tray 1013 rotates along the rotation axis of the second connecting unit 105, the angle between the tray 1013 and the inner surface of the first housing 1011 can be fixed by connecting the first fixing unit 107 with the first positioning hole 106.
[0045] like Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the first fixing unit 107 is an automatic spring pin, with two automatic spring pins distributed at the left and right ends of the tray 1013 away from the side that is in contact with the inner surface of the first housing 1011. Two first positioning holes 106 (four in total) are symmetrically arranged on each of the left and right sides of the inner surface of the first housing 1011, located above (corresponding to the working angle, i.e., the angle between the tray 1013 and the inner surface of the first housing 1011 is 90 degrees) and below (corresponding to the storage angle, i.e., the angle between the tray 1013 and the inner surface of the first housing 1011 is 0 degrees) respectively. When the inspection device 100 is in the storage state, the back of the tray 1013 is in contact with the inner surface of the first housing 1011. At this time, the pins of the automatic spring pins on the tray 1013 automatically pop out under the action of the spring and insert into the positioning holes below the inner surface of the first housing 1011, thereby fixing the angle between the tray 1013 and the inner surface of the first housing 1011 to 0 degrees. When the inspection device 100 needs to be activated, press the button pins of the automatic spring pins at both ends of the tray 1013 to retract the pins and unlock them. Rotate the tray 1013 along the rotation axis of the second connecting unit 105 to a horizontal position, i.e., the angle between the tray 1013 and the inner surface of the first housing 1011 is 90 degrees. When the tray 1013 is rotated to the correct position, i.e., the automatic spring pin is aligned with the positioning hole above the inner surface of the first housing 1011, release the button to allow the pin to automatically pop out under the action of the spring and insert into the positioning hole above the inner surface of the first housing 1011, firmly locking the tray 1013 at the working angle. At this time, pull the handle of the automatic spring pin to insert it into the positioning hole above the inner surface of the first housing 1011 to fix the angle between the tray 1013 and the inner surface of the first housing 1011. After the inspection equipment 100 is used, press the automatic spring pin buttons on both the left and right ends to retract the pin and unlock it. Rotate the tray 1013 in the opposite direction so that its back side is back against the inner surface of the first box 1011 (returning to a 0-degree angle). Release the button to allow the pin to pop out automatically and insert into the positioning hole below, locking the tray 1013 back into the storage position.
[0046] In this embodiment, the first housing 1011 is provided with a first positioning hole 106, and the tray 1013 is provided with a first fixing unit 107. The first fixing unit 107 is configured to connect with the first positioning hole 106 after the tray 1013 rotates along the rotation axis of the second connecting unit 105, so as to fix the included angle between the tray 1013 and the inner surface of the first housing 1011. Through the cooperative design of the first positioning hole 106 and the first fixing unit 107, the tray 1013 can be effectively prevented from rotating accidentally when the inspection equipment 100 is in operation or moving, thereby ensuring the stability of the data entry subunit 1022 during operation and the reliability of storage, and improving the overall stability and safety of the inspection equipment 100.
[0047] In one possible implementation, the first housing 1011 is provided with a second fixing unit 108, and the second housing 1012 is provided with a second positioning hole. The second fixing unit 108 is configured to connect with the second positioning hole after the first housing 1011 rotates along the rotation axis of the first connecting unit 104, so as to fix the relative position between the first housing 1011 and the second housing 1012.
[0048] A second fixing unit 108 is installed on the side wall of the first housing 1011, and correspondingly, a second positioning hole is installed on the second housing 1012. After the first housing 1011 rotates along the rotation axis of the first connecting unit 104, the relative position between the first housing 1011 and the second housing 1012 can be fixed by connecting the second fixing unit and the second positioning hole. Figure 2 As shown, the second fixing unit 108 is an automatic spring pin. The automatic spring pin is arranged at two points on the upper and lower sides of the side wall of the first housing 1011, and the second housing 1012 has a second positioning hole (not shown in the figure) at the corresponding position. When the inspection equipment 100 needs to be activated, the second housing 1012 is kept fixed, and the first housing 1011 is rotated 90 degrees outward along the rotation axis of the first connecting unit 104 to the predetermined working position. At the same time, the automatic spring pin on the first housing 1011 is aligned with the second positioning hole of the second housing 1012. At this time, the handle of the automatic spring pin is released, and the pin automatically pops out under the action of the internal spring and inserts into the positioning hole of the second housing 1012, fixing the relative position between the first housing 1011 and the second housing 1012. After the inspection equipment 100 is used up, press the automatic spring pin button on the first box 1011 to retract the pin and unlock it. Then rotate the first box 1011 90 degrees inward along the rotation axis of the first connecting unit 104 so that the container 101 is in the storage state.
[0049] In this embodiment, the first housing 1011 is provided with a second fixing unit 108, and the second housing 1012 is provided with a second positioning hole. The second fixing unit 108 is configured to connect with the second positioning hole after the first housing 1011 rotates along the rotation axis of the first connecting unit 104, thereby fixing the relative position between the first housing 1011 and the second housing 1012. Through the cooperative design of the second positioning hole and the second fixing unit 108, relative rotation of the first housing 1011 and the second housing 1012 can be effectively prevented during the working state of the inspection equipment 100, thereby ensuring the stability of the working platform formed by the unfolded housing 101 and improving the reliability of the inspection equipment 100.
[0050] In one possible implementation, such as Figure 4As shown, the display subunit 1023 is connected to the top surface of the second housing 1012 via the third connecting unit 109. The display surface of the display subunit 1023 is in contact with the top surface of the second housing 1012. When the display subunit 1023 rotates along the rotation axis of the third connecting unit 109, the angle between the display surface and the top surface of the second housing 1012 is greater than 0 degrees.
[0051] The display subunit 1023 is connected to the top surface of the second housing 1012 via the third connecting unit 109. When the inspection device 100 is in the retracted state, the display surface of the display subunit 1023 is in contact with the top surface of the second housing 1012. When the inspection device 100 needs to be activated, the display subunit 1023 can be rotated along the rotation axis of the third connecting unit 109, raising the display surface and forming an adjustable angle between it and the top surface of the second housing 1012. This angle can be flexibly adjusted according to the operator's usage needs or viewing habits.
[0052] In this embodiment, the display subunit 1023 is connected to the top surface of the second housing 1012 via the third connecting unit 109. The display surface of the display subunit 1023 is in contact with the top surface of the second housing 1012. When the display subunit 1023 rotates along the rotation axis of the third connecting unit 109, the angle between the display surface and the top surface of the second housing 1012 is greater than 0 degrees. This allows the display subunit 1023 to rotate relative to the top surface of the second housing 1012, enabling the operator to freely adjust the angle of the display subunit 1023 according to usage needs. This increases the flexibility of the display subunit 1023 during use and improves the user experience of the inspection equipment 100.
[0053] In one possible implementation, the housing 101 further includes a cover plate 110. The cover plate 110 is connected to the outer surface of the second housing 1012 via a fourth connecting unit 111. The cover plate 110 has a lid-like structure and fits against the top surface of the second housing 1012, forming a receiving cavity between the cover plate 110 and the second housing 1012, within which the display sub-unit 1023 is located. The cover plate 110 is used to receive the display sub-unit 1023 through the receiving cavity, and after rotating along the rotation axis of the fourth connecting unit 111, the display sub-unit 1023 can rotate along the rotation axis of the third connecting unit 109.
[0054] like Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the fourth connecting unit 111 is a hinge. The cover plate 110 is designed as a cover structure, and the inner contour of the cover plate 110 matches the shape of the top surface of the second housing 1012. When the inspection device 100 is in the storage state, the cover plate 110 is in contact with the top surface of the second housing 1012, and the top surface of the cover plate 110 serves as the top cover of the housing 101, providing basic sealing and protection. At the same time, a receiving cavity is formed between the cover plate 110 and the second housing 1012, which accommodates and protects the display sub-unit 1023 disposed on the outer surface of the second housing 1012. When the inspection device 100 is activated, the cover plate 110 is rotated along the rotation axis of the fourth connecting unit 111 and the outer surface of the cover plate 110 is placed against the side of the second housing 1012 (e.g., Figure 3 (As shown). At this time, the display sub-unit 1023 on the top surface of the second housing 1012 is exposed, and the operator can operate the display sub-unit 1023 to rotate along the rotation axis of the third connecting unit 109. After the inspection equipment 100 is used, the cover plate 110 is rotated in the opposite direction to restore the cover plate 110 to a state of being in contact with the top surface of the second housing 1012, and a new receiving cavity is formed to receive and protect the display sub-unit 1023.
[0055] In this embodiment, the housing 101 further includes a cover plate 110. The cover plate 110 is connected to the outer surface of the second housing 1012 via a fourth connecting unit 111. The cover plate 110 has a lid-like structure, and it fits against the top surface of the second housing 1012, forming a receiving cavity between the cover plate 110 and the second housing 1012, within which the display sub-unit 1023 is located. The cover plate 110 is used to accommodate the display sub-unit 1023 through the receiving cavity, and after rotating along the rotation axis of the fourth connecting unit 111, the display sub-unit 1023 can rotate along the rotation axis of the third connecting unit 109. Through the design of the cover plate 110 fitting against the top surface of the second housing 1012, when the inspection equipment 100 is in the stored state, the forming receiving cavity can accommodate and protect the delicate display sub-unit 1023 from physical damage and environmental harm, improving the durability and reliability of the equipment. Furthermore, when the equipment needs to be activated, there is no need to disassemble or perform any additional processing on the cover 110. A simple rotation is all that is required to open the cover 110 and allow its outer surface to rest securely against the side wall of the enclosure. The opened cover 110 does not occupy any extra space, enabling convenient and quick access to the inspection function of the inspection equipment 100, thereby improving inspection efficiency.
[0056] In one possible implementation, the third connection unit 109 includes a damped hinge.
[0057] The damping hinge contains a high-strength pivot that defines a unique axis of rotation around which the display sub-unit 1023 rotates. The pivot is enclosed in a robust housing, one end of which is securely fixed to a predetermined position on the top surface of the second housing 1012, while the other end is rigidly connected to the support structure of the display sub-unit 1023. When the inspection device 100 is in its retracted state, the damping hinge ensures that the display surface of the display sub-unit 1023 is in close contact with the outer surface of the second housing 1012. When the inspection device 100 is activated, the operator only needs to apply appropriate force to rotate the display sub-unit 1023. During this process, the damping hinge provides smooth resistance, making the rotation process easy to control. Due to the strong position-holding capability of the damping hinge, when rotation stops, the display surface can be stably held at the desired angle, forming a stable angle greater than 0 degrees (e.g., 30 degrees, 45 degrees, 90 degrees, etc.) between the display surface and the outer surface of the second housing 1012.
[0058] In this embodiment, the third connecting unit 109 includes a damping hinge. The damping hinge provides the display subunit 1023 with a smooth and controllable rotation feel, allowing the display surface to easily and reliably transition from its initial contact with the housing and remain securely in any desired angle position greater than 0 degrees, thus improving the operator's user experience. Furthermore, the continuous damping force provided by the damping hinge enables the display subunit 1023 to have a full-angle self-locking suspension function, preventing the display subunit 1023 from accidentally closing or continuing to open due to gravity or slight vibration, thereby improving the reliability of the device.
[0059] Among the possible implementations, such as Figure 1 As shown, a locking unit 112 is provided on the first housing 1011. The locking unit 112 is used to restrict the first housing 1011 from rotating along the rotation axis of the first connecting unit 104 when the first housing 1011 is housed in the second housing 1012, and to allow the first housing 1011 to rotate along the rotation axis of the first connecting unit 104 after being opened under the action of external force.
[0060] A locking unit 112 is provided on the first housing 1011. In one example, the locking unit 112 is a hook-and-groove lock. When the inspection device 100 is in the retracted state, i.e., when the first housing 1011 is housed within the second housing 1012, the operator pulls the small handle outward, driving the latch to extend horizontally and engage with the corresponding locking groove in the second housing 1012. The rigid engagement between the latch and the groove wall forms a mechanical constraint, effectively limiting the rotation of the first housing 1011 around the rotation axis of the first connecting unit 104. When it is necessary to activate the inspection device 100, the user presses the small handle inward, forcing the latch to retract from the locking groove. After disengagement, the constraint of the locking unit 112 on rotation disappears, and the first housing 1011 can then freely rotate along the rotation axis of the first connecting unit 104, realizing the opening and closing operation of the housing.
[0061] In this embodiment, a locking unit 112 is provided on the first housing 1011. The locking unit 112 restricts the first housing 1011 from rotating along the rotation axis of the first connecting unit 104 when it is housed within the second housing 1012, and allows the first housing 1011 to rotate along the rotation axis of the first connecting unit 104 after being opened by external force. By restricting the rotational freedom of the first housing 1011 through the locking unit 112, reliable position locking can be provided when the inspection equipment 100 is in a stored state. When the equipment is activated, the constraint can be quickly released through simple manual operation, allowing the first housing 1011 to resume its rotational function around the axis. This enables stable storage and flexible switching of the housing opening and closing, thereby achieving safe storage and rapid deployment of the housing 101.
[0062] In one possible implementation, the moving unit 103 includes a plurality of universal wheels 113, at least one of which is connected to the first housing 1011.
[0063] The moving unit 103 consists of multiple omnidirectional casters 113, which are fixedly mounted on the bottom frame of the receiving box 101. At least one of the omnidirectional casters 113 is connected to the first housing 1011 and is equipped with a braking function. When the inspection equipment 100 needs to be activated, the omnidirectional caster 113 is driven by external force to move the receiving box 101 to the working position. By activating the braking function of the omnidirectional caster 113 connected to the first housing 1011, the first housing 1011 is fixed in the working position, and the second housing 1012 is rotated to unfold the receiving box 101, forming a working platform for inspection operations. When the inspection equipment 100 is no longer in use, the braking device of the omnidirectional caster 113 is released, the automatic rotation of the omnidirectional caster 113 is restored, and the omnidirectional caster 113 is driven by external force to move the receiving box 101 to the storage position.
[0064] In this embodiment, the moving unit 103 includes a plurality of omnidirectional casters 113, at least one of which is connected to the first housing 1011. The omnidirectional casters 113 provide omnidirectional mobility, allowing the housing 101 to be easily moved to target locations in narrow or complex spaces, improving the portability and positioning efficiency of the inspection equipment 100. Furthermore, by activating the roller brake connected to the first housing 1011, a single-point rigid lock can be formed, ensuring the housing is stable and slip-resistant during inspection, thereby guaranteeing the safety of inspection operations performed on the housing 101 unfolding platform.
