Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a POS machine with an integrated fingerprint recognition module to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a POS machine integrating a fingerprint recognition module, comprising a base, a third body, and a disinfection component. The base has a sliding groove on its carrier plate surface, and a first body and a second body are respectively installed on the front and rear sides of the base. USB interfaces are provided in the middle of the front and rear sides of the base and the lower middle of the second body. A third body is installed on one side of the second body. USB connectors are installed on the sides of the first body, the second body near the base, and the third body near the second body. A fingerprint recognition area is provided in the middle of the third body, and a disinfection component is installed on the left side of the fingerprint recognition area. The disinfection component includes a micro motor, a liquid storage box, a micro connecting pump, and a spray head. The liquid storage box is fixed to one side of the upper output shaft of the micro motor, and the spray head is connected to the lower side of the liquid storage box via the micro connecting pump.

[0006] Furthermore, both the first and second bodies are equipped with display screens in the middle, and the lower surface of the second body is provided with a payment reading area.

[0007] Furthermore, sliders are provided on both sides of the bottom of the first body, the second body, and the third body, and the sliders are slidably connected to the slide grooves.

[0008] Furthermore, the disinfection component also includes spray holes, and the lower side of the spray head is evenly provided with spray holes.

[0009] Furthermore, a wiping assembly is installed on the upper side of the fingerprint recognition area, and the wiping assembly includes a fixed frame, a lead screw, and a movable sleeve. The fixed frame is embedded in the third body, and the lead screw is rotatably arranged inside the fixed frame, and the movable sleeve is sleeved on the outside of the lead screw.

[0010] Furthermore, the wiping assembly also includes a connecting block and a drive motor. The connecting block is fixed to the outer side of the movable sleeve, and the connecting block is slidably connected to the side wall of the fixed frame. The drive motor is installed on the outer side of the fixed frame, and a flexible dust cover is connected between the connecting block and the side of the fixed frame.

[0011] Furthermore, the wiping assembly also includes a damping shaft, a rotating plate, and a disinfectant cotton layer. The rotating plate is rotatably mounted on the outer side of the connecting block via the damping shaft, and a disinfectant cotton layer is adhered to the lower side of the rotating plate. The lower side of the disinfectant cotton layer is in contact with the fingerprint recognition area.

[0012] Furthermore, a storage slot is provided on the left side of the third body, and the size of the storage slot matches the size of the rotating plate and the disinfection cotton layer.

[0013] This invention provides a POS machine with an integrated fingerprint recognition module, which has the following advantages: In this invention, the sliders at the bottom of the first, second, and third units can slide and engage with the grooves of the base, thereby facilitating the guided installation of the first, second, and third units.

[0014] In this invention, the disinfection assembly includes a storage box for storing disinfectant. A micro motor drives the storage box to rotate and adjust its angle, thereby rotating the spray head so that it can turn towards the fingerprint recognition area. The disinfectant inside the storage box is pumped into the spray head via a micro-connecting pump, so that it can be sprayed out through the spray holes evenly arranged on its lower side, thereby spraying disinfectant onto the fingerprint recognition area to quickly kill residual bacteria and achieve a disinfection effect.

[0015] In this invention, the wiping assembly is driven by a motor that rotates a lead screw, causing a moving sleeve to slide along a fixed frame with a connecting block. This, in turn, moves the rotating plate and the disinfectant cotton layer. The disinfectant cotton layer on the underside of the rotating plate adheres to the fingerprint recognition area, allowing for physical wiping after disinfectant spraying. A flexible dust cover prevents dust from entering the assembly. The rotating plate can be rotated via a damping shaft, facilitating the removal and replacement of the disinfectant cotton layer underneath. Replacement is achieved by simply attaching the cotton layer. When not in use, the rotating plate and disinfectant cotton layer can be stored in a side storage slot, preventing the wiping assembly from interfering with the normal use of the fingerprint recognition area.
