[0025] Here, the technical solutions in the embodiments (or "implementation methods") of the present application will be described clearly and completely in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. When the following description refers to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements.

[0026] If there are terms involving directional indications or positional relationships in the embodiments of the present application (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, inside, outside, top, bottom, center, vertical, horizontal, longitudinal, transverse, length, width, counterclockwise, clockwise, axial, radial, circumferential, etc.), such terms are only used to explain the relative positional relationship, movement, etc. between the components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings); if the specific posture changes, the directional indication or positional relationship will also change accordingly. In addition, the terms "first" and "second" in the embodiments of the present application are only used for the purpose of convenience of description and cannot be understood as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, the present application provides a payment collection device 1, including: a shell 11, a scanner 12, a sensor 13 and a limiter 14. The shell 11 includes a display surface 111. The scanner 12 is arranged on the display surface 111, and is used to scan code information and make payments. The sensor 13 is arranged on the display surface 111, and is used to sense electronic devices and make payments. The limiter 14 is arranged at the outer edge of the scanner 12, and has an extension portion 141 that extends and is formed along the scanning direction Z of the payment collection device 1. Among them, the scanner 12 includes a scanning channel 121, and the scanning channel 121 is exposed from the extension portion 141.

[0028] The payment device 1 of the present application is provided with a limiter 14, which is provided at the outer edge of the scanning piece 12, and the extension portion 141 of the limiter 14 extends upward along the scanning direction Z of the payment device 1, thereby forming a limiter structure. When a user uses a device with code information to scan and pay, taking a mobile phone as an example, the user needs to place the mobile phone above the scanning piece 12, and display the code information of the mobile phone on the scanning channel 121, thereby completing the scan and pay. In this process, due to the setting of the limiter 14, the user's mobile phone can only rest against the top of the extension 141, which forms a certain interval between the mobile phone and the display surface 111, thereby reducing the possibility of erroneous triggering of inductive payment due to the device being too close to the sensing element 13. It can be seen that the structural setting of the payment device 1 ensures the safety and accuracy of the payment process and improves the payment efficiency. The setting of the limiter 14 also provides a clear use guide for the user, so that the user can more intuitively distinguish the scanning area and the sensing area, so as to accurately place the electronic device above the scanning channel 121 for scanning operations without worrying about the device accidentally touching the sensing element 13 or contacting the display surface 111. Such a structural design simplifies the user's operating steps, improves the convenience of payment and the user's experience. In addition, the setting of the limiter 14 also provides a physical barrier for the scanned piece 12, which can protect the scanned piece 12 from external force collision to a certain extent, thereby also improving the safety, stability and service life of the payment device 1.

[0029] In an optional embodiment, on a vertical plane, the maximum value of the projection height of the limiting member 14 is greater than or equal to 1 cm and less than or equal to 5 cm.

[0030] In the actual use scenario of the payment device 1, when the user scans the code to pay, the code information of the mobile phone or other electronic device is usually placed above the scanning channel 121 for scanning. If the projection height of the limiter 14 is too low, the user may accidentally trigger the inductive payment function, such as the near field communication function, when scanning the code, resulting in payment confusion or payment failure. On the contrary, if the projection height of the limiter 14 is too high, the user's code information may be too far away from the scanning piece 12, making it impossible to complete the payment. Therefore, in Figure 1In the illustrated embodiment, the cash collection device 1 limits the maximum projection height of the limiter 14 to between 1 cm and 5 cm. Such a design can provide the user with sufficient operating guidance space. When the user places the electronic device above the scanning channel 121, the limiter 14 can ensure that a certain distance is maintained between the device and the display surface 111, thereby preventing the device from contacting the display surface 111 and triggering the inductive payment by mistake, thereby improving the accuracy and reliability of the payment process and ensuring the independence and stability of different payment methods of the cash collection device 1. In addition, since the setting of the limiter 14 reduces problems such as equipment failure or payment failure caused by false triggering, such a structural setting also simplifies the maintenance and debugging of the cash collection device 1 and reduces maintenance costs.

[0031] Specifically, the maximum projection height of the stopper 14 may be 1 cm, 2 cm, 3 cm, 4 cm or 5 cm. Figure 1 In the embodiment shown, the maximum projection height of the limiter 14 is 3 cm. This distance setting ensures the independence of the two payment methods, and also effectively controls the overall volume of the cash collection device 1, making it more adaptable. In some other optional embodiments, it can also be set to 1 cm or 2 cm, so as to further reduce the overall volume and production cost of the cash collection device 11; of course, it can also be set to 4 cm or 5 cm, so as to further ensure the independence of the two payment methods, improve the recognition of the two payment methods, and enable users to more easily distinguish the payment method they want to choose. Therefore, this application does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0032] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In an optional embodiment, the limiting member 14 is a plate-shaped structure surrounding the outer edge of the scanning member 12. The limiting member 14 further includes a first side opening 142, which is disposed on a side of the limiting member 14 close to the sensing member 13.

[0033] The payment device 1 of the present application sets the limiter 14 as a plate-like structure surrounding the outer edge of the scanning piece 12. Such a structural design can clearly guide the user to place the electronic device above the scanning channel 121 to perform the code scanning operation, and the design of the first side opening 142 provides the user with additional operational flexibility. For example: when the user chooses induction payment, if the user's electronic device is large in size, part of the structure of the electronic device can be extended into the area of ​​the scanning channel 121 through the first side opening 142, thereby realizing induction payment, which effectively improves the flexibility of user operation. At the same time, the structural design of the limiter 14 also optimizes the reflection path of external light, provides the scanning piece 12 with a more accurate scanning channel 121 and payment information, so that the scanning piece 12 can more clearly identify the code information. Especially in an environment with complex light, this design can reduce light interference and improve the success rate of code scanning.

[0034] In an optional embodiment, the stopper 14 includes an inclined portion 143, which is disposed on a side of the stopper 14 close to the sensing element 13. Along the direction X from the scanning element 12 to the sensing element 13, the height of the inclined portion 143 in the scanning direction Z gradually decreases.

[0035] The payment device 1 of the present application has a more clear identification and guiding effect through the setting of the inclined portion 143, which can more clearly guide the user to place the electronic device above the scanning channel 121 to perform the code scanning operation. At the same time, the setting of the inclined portion 143 also makes the position where the user contacts the payment device 1 during the code scanning payment process an inclined table top, rather than a right-angled surface with edges and corners. Such a structural design ensures the safety of the user when making payments and improves the user's experience. In addition, from the perspective of appearance design, the design of the inclined portion 143 makes the limiter 14 have a smoother sense of lines and a simpler visual experience. Therefore, it can also improve the aesthetic appearance of the payment device 1 to a certain extent, and enhance the user's enthusiasm and experience.

[0036] In another optional embodiment, the limiting member 14 is a plurality of columnar structures disposed on the outer edge of the scanning member 12 .

[0037] In the actual use of the payment device 1, the limiter 14 composed of multiple columns can adjust the column height so that the limiter 14 has multiple different scanning distances, so that it can adapt to different devices for scanning code payment. For example: in an optional embodiment, the column height of the limiter 14 on the side away from the sensor 13 can be set higher, and the column height of the limiter 14 on the side close to the sensor 13 can be set lower, so that the limiter 14 forms multiple step-like scanning areas. When the user uses a larger device such as a mobile phone or tablet to scan the code, it can be directly placed on the highest column for scanning; when the user uses a smart watch or other smaller device to scan the code, since the code information is relatively small, it can be placed on a relatively low column for scanning. It can be seen that the payment device 1 in this embodiment can further improve its adaptability and practicality. In addition, the design of the limiters 14 with multiple columnar structures also makes it easy to disassemble and replace, thereby improving the maintainability of the device. Furthermore, if a columnar structure is damaged or needs to be updated, it can be replaced individually without disassembling the entire limiting member 14, thereby effectively reducing maintenance costs.

[0038] In an optional embodiment, the limiting member 14 further includes a second side opening. The second side opening is disposed on a side of the limiting member 14 close to the sensing member 13 .

[0039] Similarly, the payment device 1 of the present application can also be provided with a second side opening on the side close to the sensing element 13, that is, the column close to the side of the sensing element 13 is directly removed. Such a structural design can more clearly guide the user to place the electronic device above the scanning channel 121 for scanning operations, and the design of the second side opening provides the user with additional operational flexibility, allowing the user to extend part of the structure of the electronic device into the area of ​​the scanning channel 121 through the second side opening, thereby realizing inductive payment, which effectively improves the flexibility of user operation.

[0040] like Figure 3 As shown, in an optional embodiment, the limiting member 14 is a plate-shaped structure arranged on a side of the scanning member 12 away from the sensing member 13 .

[0041] exist Figure 3 In the illustrated embodiment, the payment device 1 sets the limit member 14 as a plate-like structure connected to the side of the scanning member 12 away from the sensing member 13. Such a structural design further expands the area of ​​the scanning channel 121, thereby being able to more intuitively instruct and guide the user to place the electronic device above the scanning channel 121 for scanning operations. At the same time, it further improves the scanning sensitivity of the scanning member 12, improves the success rate of scanning payment, and optimizes the user experience.

[0042] Of course, it should be noted that the specific structure of the limiter 14 can be designed accordingly according to different usage scenarios and user needs of the payment device 1, for example: the limiter 14 can be set to a trumpet shape, or a circular ring-shaped enclosure, etc., and this application does not impose any restrictions on this.

[0043] In an optional embodiment, the payment device 1 further includes an identification unit, which is used to indicate a payment location.

[0044] The setting of the identification part in this application can provide users with clear visual instructions to help users accurately place the electronic device in the correct payment position. With the guidance of the identification part, users can quickly find the operation area for scanning or induction payment, avoiding payment failures due to improper operation, thereby ensuring the security and accuracy of the payment process and improving payment efficiency. For example: the identification part can be respectively attached to the limiter 14 and the induction part 13, so as to more clearly indicate the scanning area and the induction area; of course, it can also be directly set on the housing 11 or other positions, and this application does not limit this.

[0045] In another optional embodiment, the payment device 1 includes a voice port 15, and the voice port 15 is used to prompt the payment location.

[0046] Correspondingly, the design of the voice port 15 can provide users with clearer auditory instructions, thereby helping users to accurately place the electronic device in the correct payment position, thereby ensuring the security and accuracy of the payment process and improving payment efficiency.

[0047] Of course, in other optional embodiments, according to the actual usage scenario and user needs of the payment device 1, the identification part and the voice port 15 can be set at the same time, so as to provide the user with visual guidance and auditory guidance at the same time, ensure the accuracy and convenience of the user when performing payment operations, and effectively improve the adaptability and practicality of the payment device 1.

[0048] In an optional embodiment, an angle A is formed between the display surface 111 and the table top, and the angle A is greater than 0° and less than or equal to 20°.

[0049] In the present application, the cash collection device 1 sets the display surface 111 to have an angle A with the table. Such a setting can make the scanning piece 12 and the sensing piece 13 have an inclination angle with the table, thereby optimizing the placement angle of the electronic device during scanning code payment and induction payment, that is, when scanning code payment and induction payment, the user can more naturally align the code information with the scanning piece 12 or place the electronic device against the area of ​​the sensing piece 13, reducing the operation of the user adjusting the angle of the electronic device, and improving the convenience of scanning code and user experience. At the same time, the design of the angle A also optimizes the light reflection path, so that the scanning piece 12 can reduce the interference of external light, more clearly identify the code information, and improve the success rate of scanning code. In addition, the inclined design of the display surface 111 also makes the center of gravity of the cash collection device 1 closer to the side of the sensing piece 13, so that when the user places the electronic device against the limiter 14 to scan the code for payment, even if the electronic device collides with the limiter 14, the possibility of the cash collection device 1 tilting or shaking is relatively low. It can be seen that the design of the display surface 111 also enhances the stability of the cash collection device 1.

[0050] Specifically, the angle A can be 0°, 5°, 10°, 15° or 20°, etc. In the embodiment disclosed in the present application, the angle A is set to 10°. Such an angle setting can further optimize the scanning angle and improve the convenience of scanning and user experience. Of course, in some other embodiments, the size of the angle A can be adjusted accordingly according to the specific use scenario or user needs of the cashier device 1. For example, in the embodiment in which the cashier device 1 is hung on a vertical wall, a relatively small 0° or 5° can be selected; and in the embodiment in which the cashier device 1 is placed on an inclined table opposite to the inclination direction of the display surface 111, a relatively large 15° or 20° can be selected. Therefore, the present application does not limit this. Of course, in another optional embodiment, the cashier device 1 can set a part of the display surface 111 to have an inclination angle, and set another part of the display surface 111 to a horizontal structure, so as to further improve the adaptability and practicality of the cashier device 1. The present application does not limit this either.

[0051] In an optional embodiment, the display surface 111 is a plane.

[0052] In this embodiment, the flat display surface 111 provides a clear operation interface for the user, and the user can more intuitively place the device in the code scanning area or the sensing area to perform payment operations, thereby reducing uncertainty during the operation and improving the user experience. At the same time, the design of the flat display surface 111 can also optimize the spatial layout of the device while meeting functional requirements, without occupying additional space, and maintaining the compactness and portability of the device.

[0053] In another optional embodiment, the display surface 111 is a stepped surface with a height difference.

[0054] In this embodiment, the display surface 111 of the step surface can more clearly divide different functional areas. For example, the lower step area is used to set the sensor 13 of the electronic device, and the higher step area is used to set the scanning part 12 and other payment information or prompt operations. This design makes the functional division clear, and the user can intuitively find the required payment area. In addition, the design of the step surface can further distinguish the scanning part 12 from the sensing part 13, so as to better ensure that the electronic device will not trigger the induction payment during the scanning payment process, thereby improving the payment efficiency of the payment device 1.

[0055] In an optional embodiment, the payment device 1 further includes a control component. The sensing component 13 is electrically connected to the control component. The payment device 1 further includes a light ring 131 arranged around the sensing component 13, and the light ring 131 is electrically connected to the control component. The control component controls the light ring 131 to flash according to the payment information received by the sensing component 13.

[0056] The setting of the control element and the light ring 131 enables the payment device 1 to control the light ring 131 to flash according to the payment information received by the sensor 13, providing the user with more accurate payment area guidance and more intuitive payment status feedback, thereby helping the user to confirm whether the payment operation is correct and quickly determine whether the payment is successful, reducing the complexity of the operation.

[0057] In an optional embodiment, the voice port 15 is electrically connected to a control component, and the control component controls the content information broadcast by the voice port 15 according to the payment information received by the sensor 13 .

[0058] Similarly, the setting of the voice port 15 enables the payment device 1 to broadcast corresponding content according to the payment information received by the scanning piece 12 and the sensing piece 13, and can also provide the user with more intuitive payment status feedback, thereby helping the user to confirm whether the payment operation is correct and quickly determine whether the payment is successful, reducing the complexity of the operation.

[0059] It should be noted that in some exemplary embodiments, the payment device 1 is provided with both a light ring 131 and a voice port 15, and such a design can further enhance the user experience and the convenience of using the payment device 1. At the same time, it also further enhances the interactivity of the payment device 1 during the payment process, and improves the compatibility and visual and auditory appeal of the device.

[0060] In an optional embodiment, the sensing element 13 further includes a distance sensor, which is electrically connected to the control element. The control element controls the flashing of the light ring 131 and the content information broadcast by the voice port 15 according to the distance information of the electronic device detected by the distance sensor.

[0061] The distance sensor of the payment device 1 is set so that it can dynamically adjust the flashing mode of the light ring 131 and the broadcast content of the voice port 15 according to the distance information of the detected electronic device, so as to provide the user with more accurate payment status feedback. For example, when the user gradually brings the payment device closer to the sensing element 13, the flashing frequency of the light ring 131 and the broadcast content of the voice port 15 can be adjusted according to the distance change, helping the user to confirm whether the payment operation is correct. Such a design can provide more accurate payment status feedback, optimize the payment operation process, and enhance the user experience.

[0062] In an optional embodiment, the payment device 1 further includes a control unit and a display unit; the display unit is arranged on the display surface 111 and is used to display content information. The display unit is electrically connected to the control unit. The control unit controls the content information displayed on the display unit according to the payment information received by the scanning unit 12 and the sensing unit 13.

[0063] Similarly, the payment device 1 can display specific payment information more accurately through the design of the display component, thereby providing users with more accurate payment information prompts and more intuitive payment status feedback, thereby helping users confirm whether the payment information is correct and quickly determine whether the payment is successful, reducing operational complexity.

[0064] It should be noted that the technical solutions or technical features described in the above embodiments can be combined or supplemented with each other without causing conflicts. The scope of protection of this application is not limited to the precise structures described in the above embodiments and shown in the drawings; all modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included in the scope of protection of this application.
