[0022] The receiving slot 7 is arranged at the bottom of the main body 1 of the cargo receiving port device. When the purchase vehicle is operated, the goods fall onto the guide plate 11 through the cargo discharge port 2 and then slide into the receiving slot 7.
[0023] A sensing part 6 is provided at the bottom of the receiving slot 7, and pressure sensors 10 are provided at the four corners inside the sensing part 6;
[0024] An opening 4 is provided on one side of the cargo pickup device body 1, a baffle 3 is rotatably connected to the cargo pickup device body 1 outside the opening 4 via a rotating shaft, and a suction mechanism 5 is provided on one side of the cargo pickup device body 1 close to the baffle 3;
[0025] The suction mechanism 5 includes a groove 501, an electromagnet 502 and a suction block 503, wherein the electromagnet 502 is embedded in the groove 501, and the suction block 503 is arranged at the bottom end of the baffle 3 close to the groove 501;
[0026] When the goods fall into the receiving slot 7, the pressure sensor 10 senses the pressure and transmits the signal to the built-in controller, which then controls the electromagnet 502 to be powered off, so that the suction block 503 is separated from the electromagnet 502, so that the baffle 3 can be opened outward, and then the shopper can pick up the goods through the opening 4;
[0027] Both ends of the opening 4 are provided with cushions 8, and the cushions 8 are made of silicone material, which is not easy to pinch the purchaser;
[0028] After the goods are taken, the pressure in the receiving slot 7 disappears, and the electromagnet 502 is energized again, so that the suction block 503 is tightly fixed in the groove 501, so that the baffle 3 closes the opening 4, and the main body 1 of the receiving port device is protected;
[0029] The anti-deflection mechanism 9 is arranged at the top of the pressure sensor 10. The anti-deflection mechanism 9 includes an upper pressing block 901 and a lower supporting block 903. The top of the pressure sensor 10 is provided with a lower supporting block 903, and an upper pressing block 901 is arranged above the lower supporting block 903. The top of the upper pressing block 901 is connected to the bottom of the receiving trough 7.

[0031] After the upper pressing block 901 is subjected to force, the force is transmitted to the pressure sensor 10 through the steel ball 902 acting on the lower supporting block 903. The upper pressing block 901 and the lower supporting block 903 are both provided with arc grooves. After the weighing is completed, it is conducive to the automatic reset of the steel ball 902, and it is not easy to cause the upper pressing block 901 to deviate, thereby improving the accuracy of the pressure sensor 10 and making the sensing more accurate.
[0032] The specific model specifications of the pressure sensor 10 and the electromagnet 502 need to be determined by selection calculation based on the specification parameters of the device. The selection calculation method is a prior art and will not be described in detail.
[0033] Working principle: When the embodiment of the present application is in use, after the purchase cart is operated, the goods fall onto the guide plate 11 through the cargo opening 2, and then slide into the cargo receiving slot 7. When the goods fall into the cargo receiving slot 7, the pressure sensor 10 senses the pressure and transmits the signal to the built-in controller, which then controls the electromagnet 502 to be powered off, so that the suction block 503 is separated from the electromagnet 502, so that the baffle 3 can be opened outward, and then the shopper picks up the goods through the opening 4, which is not easy to pinch the purchaser. After taking the goods, the pressure in the cargo receiving slot 7 disappears, and the electromagnet 502 is powered on again. The suction block 503 is tightly fixed in the groove 501, and the baffle 3 closes the opening 4 to protect the cargo pickup device body 1. The pressure sensor 10 is provided with an anti-deviation mechanism 9. After the upper pressure block 901 is subjected to force, the force is applied to the lower support block 903 through the steel ball 902 and then transmitted to the pressure sensor 10. The upper pressure block 901 and the lower support block 903 are provided with arc grooves. After weighing, it is conducive to the automatic resetting of the steel ball 902, and it is not easy to cause the upper pressure block 901 to deviate, thereby improving the accuracy of the pressure sensor 10 and making the sensing more accurate.
