[0028] When handling bank counter services, bank staff and customers generally interact with each other through two-way voice intercoms installed at bank counters. Compared with the relatively closed and quiet environment where bank staff are located, customers are in an open business hall with relatively loud background noise, and the loudspeakers and microphones on the customer side are generally installed on the middle partition glass, which is far away from the customers. As a result, when interacting through two-way voice intercoms, it is easy for customers to not hear the staff's voice content clearly or the staff to not hear the customer's voice content clearly, making the interaction process unsmooth, requiring increased volume and / or repeated communication, with low convenience and poor customer experience.
[0029] Based on the above problems, the present application provides a counter interaction device that can improve the convenience and fluency of interaction between customers and counter staff, and improve customer experience.
[0030] The present application embodiment provides a counter interactive device 10, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the counter interactive device 10 includes a shell 1, a rotating rod 2, an interactive panel 3 and a universal connection structure 4. The shell 1 has a receiving slot 101, and the receiving slot 101 has an opening 102; the rotating rod 2 is placed in the receiving slot 101, one end of the rotating rod 2 is hinged to the shell 1, and the rotating rod 2 includes a plurality of sub-rotating rods 21 hinged end to end; the interactive panel 3 is placed in the receiving slot 101, and the interactive panel 3 is arranged on the side of the rotating rod 2 close to the opening 102, and a microphone 31 and a speaker 32 are arranged on the front of the interactive panel 3, and the front is a side surface of the interactive panel 3 away from the rotating rod 2, and the front is exposed through the opening 102; the universal connection structure 4 is arranged between the rotating rod 2 and the interactive panel 3 to connect the interactive panel 3 and the rotating rod 2. When the counter interactive device 10 is in use, the customer can pull the two sides of the interactive panel 3 with both hands on the seat, so that the rotating rod 2 automatically extends to the position pulled by the customer under the action of the pulling force, for example, from Figure 1 The state shown is stretched to Figure 2 In the state shown, the interactive panel 3 is in a position convenient for the customer to operate.
[0031] In the present application embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the front of the interactive panel 3 is exposed through the opening 102, and the interactive panel 3 can be pulled out of the receiving groove 101 by the rotating rod 2 in a direction perpendicular to the bottom wall 11. One end of the rotating rod 2 is hinged to the shell 1, and the rotating rod 2 can rotate up and down or left and right relative to the shell 1, thereby driving the interactive panel 3 connected to the rotating rod 2 to rotate up and down or left and right relative to the shell 1. Specifically, the rotating rod 2 includes a plurality of sub-rotating rods 21 hinged at the head and tail, and when the angle between adjacent sub-rotating rods 21 increases under the influence of external tension, the straight-line distance between the end of the rotating rod 2 connected to the shell 1 and the end connected to the interactive panel 3 increases, the rotating rod 2 is in an extended state, and the interactive panel 3 can extend out of the receiving groove 101; when the angle between adjacent sub-rotating rods 21 decreases under the influence of external pressure, the straight-line distance between the end of the rotating rod 2 connected to the shell 1 and the end connected to the interactive panel 3 decreases, the rotating rod 2 is in a compressed state, and the interactive panel 3 can extend into the receiving groove 101. The interactive panel 3 and the rotating rod 2 are connected via a universal connection structure 4 , and the interactive panel 3 can rotate in various directions relative to the rotating rod 2 , thereby adjusting the rotation direction and rotation angle of the interactive panel 3 .
[0032] In the present application embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the position and orientation of the interactive panel 3 can be freely adjusted according to customer needs through the rotating rod 2 and the universal connection structure 4 in a simple and convenient manner. For example, the interactive panel 3 can be adjusted to a position close to the customer's face so that the speaker 32 and the microphone 31 on the interactive panel 3 can be close to the customer, making the staff voice information output by the speaker 32 and the customer voice information received by the microphone 31 clearer, better overcoming the impact of background noise on the communication between the staff and the customer, improving the convenience and smoothness of the interaction between the customer and the counter staff, and improving the customer experience. In addition, the rotating rod 2 can also be adjusted to a folded state by rotating between the sub-rotating rods 21, so as to facilitate the retraction of the rotating rod 2 and the interactive panel 3 into the receiving slot 101, thereby reducing the occupied space of the counter interactive device 10.
[0033] In some embodiments, the counter interactive device 10 can be suspended on a wall 100 or a glass partition, or can be installed on a counter top. When the interactive panel 3 and the folded rotating rod 2 are placed in the receiving groove 101, the counter interactive device 10 does not occupy the usable space of the counter top, thereby improving the neatness and aesthetics of the counter top.
[0034] In some embodiments, the interactive panel 3 may be rectangular, circular or elliptical, and the shapes of the accommodating groove 101 and the opening 102 on the shell 1 may correspond to the shape of the interactive panel 3. The shape of the shell 1 may correspond to the shape of the interactive panel 3 or may not correspond to the shape of the interactive panel 3. It may be set according to actual needs, and the present application does not limit this.
[0035] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the rotating rod 2 and the shell 1 are hinged by a first rotating shaft 22, and adjacent sub-rotating rods 21 are hinged by a second rotating shaft 23. The rotation axis of the first rotating shaft 22 is parallel to the rotation axis of the second rotating shaft 23, so that multiple sub-rotating rods 21 can be smoothly telescopically moved, thereby improving the stability and accuracy of the position adjustment of the interactive panel 3, improving the working stability of the counter interactive device 10, and improving customer experience.
[0036] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the universal connection structure 4 includes a ball head seat 41 and a ball head rod 42 connected to each other, one of which is arranged on the interactive panel 3, and the other of which is arranged on the rotating rod 2. The interactive panel 3 can be rotated in all directions relative to the rotating rod 2 through the ball head rod 42 and the ball head seat 41, so as to adjust the position and orientation of the interactive panel 3 according to customer needs, so as to better overcome the influence of background noise on the communication between the staff and the customers, improve the convenience and fluency of the interaction between the customers and the counter staff, and improve the customer experience.
[0037] In some embodiments, the universal connection structure 4 includes a universal joint, one end of which is connected to the interactive panel 3, and the other end of which is connected to the rotating rod 2.
