[0019] Many specific details are described in the following description to facilitate a full understanding of the present application. However, the present application can be implemented in many other ways than those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar generalizations without violating the connotation of the present application, so the present application is not limited by the specific implementation disclosed below.

[0020] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that the terms "center", "up", "down", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "inside", "outside", "front", "back", etc. indicate directions or positional relationships based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction. Therefore, they cannot be understood as limitations on the present invention.

[0021] The embodiment of the present application provides a smart cash register terminal. Figures 1 to 4 The intelligent cashier terminal is further described.

[0022] In the figure: 1 screen assembly, 2 shell, 3 bracket, 31 hinge mechanism, 32 screen assembly interface, 33 several peripheral interfaces, 34 reserved NFC module position.

[0023] like Figure 1 As shown, the smart cashier terminal includes: a screen assembly, a shell and a bracket.

[0024] The screen assembly is mounted on the shell; a rotating shaft mechanism is provided at one end of the bracket; the rotating shaft mechanism can be linked with the shell so that the screen assembly and the bracket are assembled together; when the screen assembly is swung, the rotating shaft mechanism is linked to control the folding or opening of the screen assembly and the bracket. Wherein, the rotating shaft mechanism is provided with a stepping component (311), and the stepping component is used to control the screen assembly to maintain a folding angle with the bracket. The stepping design of the rotating shaft mechanism allows the user to adjust the folding angle of the screen assembly and the bracket according to the usage habits. Specifically, the stepping component is a damping component, so that the folding angle between the screen assembly and the bracket can be adjusted arbitrarily; or, the stepping component is provided with a plurality of stepping positions, so that the opening of the screen assembly and the bracket can be maintained at different opening levels.

[0025] Please refer to Figure 2 , the figure shows the opening and closing state of the smart cash register terminal. When the folding angle between the screen assembly and the bracket is 0°, the shell part faces the side away from the bracket, the screen of the screen assembly is opposite to the bracket, and the smart cash register terminal presents a storage form, that is, the screen side is folded in half with the bracket; when the folding angle between the screen assembly and the bracket is 360°, the shell part is opposite to the bracket, the screen of the screen assembly faces the side away from the bracket, and the smart cash register terminal presents a flat form, that is, the shell part side is folded in half with the bracket. The smart cash register terminal has a simple structure and is easy to fold and store. It can minimize the volume of the product during carrying and transportation, maximize the portability of carrying and reduce transportation costs, and avoid damage to the screen during movement. In actual applications, the folding angle can be flipped and adjusted according to the user's current viewing position and / or usage habits.

[0026] Furthermore, when the folding angle of the screen assembly and the bracket is within a specific angle range, the smart cash register terminal presents a desktop cash register form, and the specific angle range is determined according to the current viewing position of the user of the smart cash register terminal. When used as a desktop cash register, the current viewing position is generally determined by the height of the user, that is, the folding angle can be adjusted according to the height. Please refer to Figure 3 , the figure shows different application forms of the smart cash register terminal, among which the desktop cash register form is a situation where the folding angle of the screen assembly and the bracket is at a specific angle, which is suitable for the desktop cash register scene, for example, the folding angle is 210°.

[0027] like Figure 1As shown, the bracket is provided with a screen component interface and a peripheral interface. The screen component interface is used for data transmission with the screen component; the peripheral interface is used for expanding external devices. Among them, the screen component interface is a USB interface, so that other devices can transmit data with the smart cash register terminal through the USB interface; the peripheral interface is a spring pin interface (POGO PIN interface), and several peripheral interfaces can be set up, and external devices such as auxiliary screens, barcode scanning boxes, printers, etc. can be expanded according to the needs of the usage scenario. Please refer to Figure 4 The figure shows the situation where the intelligent cash register terminal is expanded to different external devices through the peripheral interface (33).

[0028] Furthermore, the screen assembly and the bracket are detachable, so that the smart cashier terminal can be in a tablet form after the screen assembly and the bracket are detached. Furthermore, the shell is provided with a standard VESA hole, so that the smart cashier terminal can be in a wall-mountable form after the screen assembly and the bracket are detached. Specifically, it is hung on the wall by a wall-mounted support bracket adapted to the VESA hole. VESA holes refer to screw holes that comply with the flat-panel display installation interface standard established by the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA). Please continue to refer to Figure 3 The different application forms of the smart cash register terminal shown in the figure include a wall-mounted form, wherein a VESA hole (21) is provided on the shell (2), and the wall-mounted form is formed by a wall-mounted support frame device side component (211) and a wall side component (212) installed in the VESA hole. Therefore, the smart cash register terminal can work in a variety of application forms to adapt to actual application scenarios.

[0029] The bracket also reserves a position for a Near Field Communication (NFC) module. After the NFC module is installed, the electronic device can perform NFC communication.

[0030] Although the utility model is disclosed as above in the preferred embodiment, it is not intended to limit the utility model. Any technical personnel in this field may make possible changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model shall be based on the scope defined by the claims of the utility model.
