Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of ETC, in particular to a vehicle-mounted ETC card reader. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous development of science and information technology, people's food, clothing, housing and transportation are becoming more and more convenient. For example, traditional highway toll collection requires parking and manual operation and identification to implement the collection, which is time-consuming. The existing system has basically been replaced by the ETC system for charging, which does not require long-term parking and manual operation and identification, greatly facilitating people's self-driving travel. Therefore, the market penetration rate is also getting higher and higher. When using the ETC system for charging, a vehicle-mounted ETC card reader is required for use in conjunction.

[0003] Existing on-board ETC card readers generally require a card to be inserted when in use. However, in actual use, the vehicle may be bumpy while driving, which may cause the inserted card to loosen due to vibration, and the operator may need to re-tighten the card when using it, which is troublesome. Moreover, when no card is inserted, the opening is often open, which may cause dust and small particles in the vehicle to easily enter the on-board ETC card reader, causing unnecessary damage to the internal electronic components. Utility Model Content

[0023] Example:

[0024] Reference Figure 1-Figure 4, a vehicle-mounted ETC card reader includes an ETC card reader body 1, and also includes: a baffle 2 abutting against one end of a card, a card insertion slot 101 is opened in the ETC card reader body 1, and the baffle 2 is lifted and set at the entrance of the card insertion slot 101. When the card is inserted, the baffle 2 is pressed to keep it away from the entrance of the card insertion slot 101. When the card is inserted, the baffle 2 is released, and the baffle 2 is reset. At this time, one end of the card abuts against the baffle 2, which can limit the card in the card insertion slot 101, reduce the looseness of the card caused by vibration, and ensure the reliable operation of the card; a dust cover 3, one end of the dust cover 3 is rotatably set at the entrance of the card insertion slot 101 A limit assembly for limiting the rotation of the dust cover 3 is provided in the ETC card reader body 1. When it is necessary to insert a card into the card slot 101, the dust cover 3 is opened by operating the limit assembly. At this time, the card can be inserted into the card slot 101. After the insertion is completed, the dust cover 3 is re-covered at the entrance of the card slot 101 and is restricted by the limit assembly. On the one hand, it can reduce the entry of dust and small particles into the card slot 101, especially when no card is inserted, the entrance is often in an open state, thereby improving the protection effect of the card slot 101. On the other hand, it can prevent the dust cover 3 from being opened by mistake and affecting normal use.

[0025] During use, a baffle 2 is raised and lowered in the card slot 101. When the card is installed in place, one end of the card abuts against the baffle 2, which can restrict the card in the card slot 101, reduce the loosening of the card due to vibration, and ensure the reliable operation of the card; a dust cover 3 is rotatably provided at the entrance of the card slot 101, an elastic card plate 301 is fixed on the dust cover 3, and a card slot 103 is opened on the ETC card reader body 1. On the one hand, it can reduce the entry of dust and small particles into the card slot 101, especially when no card is inserted, the entrance is often in an open state, thereby improving the protection effect of the card slot 101, and on the other hand, it can prevent the dust cover 3 from being opened by mistake, affecting normal use.

[0026] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 A limiting slot 102 is opened in the ETC card reader body 1, and a limiting plate 201 is slidably set in the limiting slot 102. One end of the baffle 2 extending into the limiting slot 102 is fixedly connected to the limiting plate 201, and a first spring 202 is arranged in the limiting slot 102, and the two ends of the first spring 202 are respectively abutted against the limiting plate 201 and the limiting slot 102. When in use, by opening a limiting slot 102 in the ETC card reader body 1 and sliding a limiting plate 201 fixedly connected to the baffle 2 in the limiting slot 102, on the one hand, the baffle 2 can be ensured to be reliably lifted and lowered, and on the other hand, under the elastic force of the first spring 202, the baffle 2 can always be in a limiting state for the card, thereby improving the use effect.

[0027] Reference Figure 3 An elastic pad 106 is fixedly arranged at the top of the card slot 101, and the bottom of the elastic pad 106 is pressed against the card. When in use, the elastic pad 106 is fixedly arranged in the card slot 101. Under the elastic force of the elastic pad 106, on the one hand, the end face of the card away from the elastic pad 106 can be pressed against the card slot 101 to ensure a reliable connection. On the other hand, the loosening of the card due to vibration can be reduced, thereby improving the use effect.
