The left front and rear ends of the lifting platform 63 are provided with card slots that are respectively slidably connected with the slide rails 65 set at the front and rear ends of the right side of the cashier counter 1, and the slide rail 65 is a "T"-shaped structure. It is operated by the motor 61, and its output shaft drives the threaded rod 64 to rotate, driving the lifting frame 62 to move smoothly upward along the slide groove 66 and the slide rail 65 until the lifting platform 63 is flush with the top of the right end of the cashier counter 1. Customers in wheelchairs can easily move items to the cashier counter 1. A controller 3 is set in the middle of the front right end of the cashier counter 1. The output end of the controller 3 is electrically connected to the input ends of the first electric telescopic rod 51, the second electric telescopic rod 55, the motor 61, the speaker 7 and the display screen 9. The input end of the controller 3 is electrically connected to the output end of the code scanning payment device 10, the ticket issuing device 11 and the external power supply. ,

[0019] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: when a customer in a wheelchair uses the self-service cash register, the customer can place fragile or large items on the lifting platform 63, and then control the lifting platform 63 to move upward through the controller 3, at which time the motor 61 starts to work, and the output shaft of the motor 61 drives the threaded rod 64 to rotate, driving the lifting frame 62 to move upward smoothly along the slide slot 66 and the slide rail 65 until the lifting platform 63 is flush with the top of the right end of the cash register 1, and the customer in the wheelchair can easily move the items to the cash register 1, and then perform self-service checkout through the cash register device 8; when checking out other items, the customer in the wheelchair can place the items inside the item transfer cylindrical slot 2 through the item placement slot 4, and then control the platform rotation unit 5 to work through the controller 3, and the first electric telescopic rod 51 is extended and retracted after receiving the signal from the controller 3, so that the rack 52 at its telescopic end drives the gear 53 to rotate, and the gear 53 drives the connecting shaft 54 ​​to rotate, thereby driving the items The transport rack 56 rotates 180°. Due to the "X"-shaped structure of the item transport rack 56 and its end portion being in active contact with the inside of the item transport cylindrical groove 2, the item transport rack 56 can transfer the items placed at the bottom of the item transport cylindrical groove 2 to the top. During the process, the items slide onto the push plate 57 under the influence of weight. In order to facilitate customers to take and view items, customers can control the second electric telescopic rod 55 to work through the controller 3, so that its telescopic end pushes the push plate 57 upward, so that the push plate 57 pushes the items out of the rectangular through groove at the right end of the top of the cash register 1. In this way, customers in wheelchairs do not need to lift the items one by one to the top of the cash register 1, thereby reducing their operating difficulty and providing convenience for them. During the entire operation process, customers can view operation prompts and product information through the display screen 9, use the code scanning payment device 10 to complete payment, and obtain shopping receipts through the ticket issuing device 11. At the same time, the speaker 7 can play prompt sounds or advertisements to enhance the customer's shopping experience.
