[0018] In order to make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects to be solved by the present application more clearly understood, the present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only used to explain the present application and are not used to limit the present application.

[0019] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed to" or "disposed on" another element, it can be directly on the other element or indirectly on the other element. When an element is referred to as being "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or indirectly connected to the other element.

[0020] It should be understood that the terms "length", "width", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating the orientation or position relationship, are based on the orientation or position relationship shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be understood as a limitation on the present application.

[0021] In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. In the description of this application, the meaning of "plurality" is two or more, unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.

[0022] like Figure 1 As shown, a finger-pinching prevention swing gate device provided in an embodiment of the present application is now described. The finger-pinching prevention swing gate device 2 comprises: a fixed base plate 21, an electric push rod 22, a swing connecting rod 23, a movable baffle 24, a torsion spring 25 and a beam sensor 26. The fixed base plate 21 is fixed to the inner side of the panel of the self-service device, or an installation window for installing the fixed base plate 21 is provided on the panel of the self-service device.

[0023] Among them, the fixed bottom plate 21 is provided with a ticket inlet for customers to insert bills; the electric push rod 22 is fixed on the fixed bottom plate 21, the telescopic end of the electric push rod 22 is movably connected to one end of the swing link 23, the other end of the swing link 23 is rotatably set on the fixed bottom plate 21 through a pin shaft, one end of the movable baffle 24 is rotatably set at the other end of the swing link 23 through a torsion spring 25, under normal conditions without external force, the torsion spring 25 can keep the angle between the movable baffle 24 and the swing link 23 in a stable state, the force arm of the torsion spring 25 is relatively long, when the movable baffle 24 encounters an obstacle (the palm of a person in this embodiment); only a small force is required to make the movable baffle 24 move in the direction close to the swing link 23, at this time the angle becomes smaller, thereby realizing the anti-pinch function. The other end of the movable baffle 24 is inserted into the ticket inlet to block the ticket inlet, and the bill cannot be normally inserted at this time; the opposite-beam sensor 26 is set at the insertion end of the ticket inlet and is electrically connected to the electric push rod 22. When the customer inserts the bill, it is first detected by the through-beam sensor 26. The through-beam sensor 26 will detect the information feedback of the bill, so that the electric push rod 22 works, and the electric push rod 22 drives the swing link 23 to swing and drives the movable baffle 24 away from the ticket inlet, so that the ticket inlet is opened for the normal insertion of the bill; when the end of the bill leaves the through-beam sensor 26, the through-beam sensor 26 will feedback the information, and the electric push rod 22 drives the swing link 23 to reset, so that the movable baffle 24 blocks the ticket inlet again, thereby preventing the continuous insertion of the second bill.

[0024] In this embodiment, the self-service device also has a detection program, that is, the movable baffle 24 will only be opened when the first bill is processed and the second bill is inserted and sensed by the through-beam sensor 26; if the first bill has not been processed, the movable baffle 24 will not be opened even if the second bill is inserted and sensed by the through-beam sensor 26, which effectively avoids the deformation and jamming of bills caused by the insertion of multiple bills into the ticket inlet.

[0025] In this embodiment, one end of the swing link 23 is provided with a waist-shaped long groove, and the telescopic end of the electric push rod 22 is slidably connected to the waist-shaped long groove through a guide. The guide can be a bolt, and its purpose is that when the telescopic end of the electric push rod 22 is extended and retracted, the guide slides in the waist-shaped long groove, thereby driving the swing link 23 to swing, and the movable baffle 24 and the swing link 23 move synchronously to realize the opening and closing of the ticket inlet.

[0026] In this embodiment, the telescopic direction of the electric push rod 22 is perpendicular to the bill insertion direction. When the telescopic end of the electric push rod 22 is extended to the longest, the telescopic end is perpendicular to the swing link 23, and the movable baffle 24 blocks the ticket inlet; when the telescopic end is retracted, the swing link 23 is pulled to rotate, and the movable baffle 24 is driven to open the ticket inlet.

[0027] In this embodiment, a frame is provided on the inner side of the fixed bottom plate 21 around the ticket inlet, the frame has a guiding function, and a notch is provided on the frame for the movable baffle 24 to move.

[0028] In this embodiment, a soft cover or a soft strip is provided on the movable baffle 24. The soft cover or the soft strip is a TPE production part 27, which effectively reduces the damage caused by the movable baffle 24 to obstacles.

[0029] like Figure 2 As shown, this embodiment also provides a self-service device, comprising: a device body 1 and the above-mentioned anti-pinch swing gate device 2, the anti-pinch swing gate device is arranged on the inner side of the panel of the device body, and the panel is provided with a bill insertion port aligned with the ticket inlet, or the panel is provided with an installation window for installing a fixed bottom plate 21. The device body is also provided with a display screen, which can display the number of bills inserted; the number of bills is the number detected by the through-beam sensor 26.

[0030] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
