Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of civil engineering, and particularly relates to a convenient recycling device for intelligent passing cards on expressways. Background Art

[0002] The toll collection systems of expressways usually use different technologies to achieve automatic, semi-automatic or manual toll collection when vehicles pass through. As an important toll collection method, semi-automatic toll collection can reduce the workload of toll collectors compared with traditional cash payment, help improve the toll collection efficiency, and reduce the waiting time of vehicles in front of toll stations.

[0003] The common semi-automatic toll collection technology is the toll collection technology based on intelligent passing cards. That is, when a driver enters an expressway, the driver will receive a card recording the entrance information from the toll station. When the vehicle leaves the expressway, the card is put into a vertical card collection self-service device at the exit. The card collection self-service device will read the information on the card, calculate the distance from the entrance to the exit, and calculate the corresponding fee according to the distance. After the driver pays the corresponding fee, the toll station railing is lifted to allow the vehicle to leave. The vertical card collection self-service device has the following disadvantages:

[0004] (1) The operation of the vertical card collection self-service device is inconvenient. The height of the vertical card collection self-service device is fixed, and there is only one card insertion slot for passing card recycling. Therefore, when the vehicle driven by the driver is far from the vertical card collection self-service device or the driver is short in height, it is difficult for the driver to accurately insert the passing card into the card insertion slot to complete the passing card recycling work.

[0005] (2) The efficiency problem of the vertical card collection self-service device. Although the vertical card collection self-service device is more efficient than manual toll collection, it is necessary for the driver to accurately insert the passing card into the card insertion slot and complete the recycling before the toll collection can be completed. If the driver is older or has poor eyesight, it will take a long time to insert the passing card into the card insertion slot, which will cause congestion during the peak traffic period.

[0006] (3) The safety problem of the vertical card collection self-service device. Because the card insertion slot of the vertical card collection self-service device is small, it is easy for the driver to accidentally drop the passing card on the ground during the card insertion process. The driver needs to bear a high safety risk, leave the vehicle to pick up the passing card and then insert it into the vertical card collection self-service device.

[0007] (4) The vertical card collection self-service device is prone to cause damage to passing cards and property losses. When the driver inserts the passing card into the vertical card collection self-service device, if the hand holding the passing card swings accidentally, since the vertical card collection self-service device is pulling the passing card and the hand is also pulling the passing card, it is easy to break the passing card, resulting in property losses. Content of the Utility Model

[0008] In view of the technical problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art, the present utility model provides a convenient recycling device for intelligent highway access cards. The purpose is to design a card input platform in the shape of an inverted trapezoid ring frustum, with a large card entrance, which greatly reduces the situation where the card is left on the road due to difficult card insertion by the driver, and reduces the occurrence of the situation where the driver of the traditional vertical card collection self-service device needs to get out of the car at risk to recycle the card again.

[0009] In order to achieve the above object, the solution of the present utility model is as follows:

[0010] The convenient recycling device for intelligent highway access cards includes a card input platform, a secondary buffer box, and a card storage box, which are arranged in sequence from top to bottom. The upper part of the card input platform is provided with a card entrance, and the lower part is provided with a card exit. An electronic screen is arranged on the outer side of the card input platform. The secondary buffer box is connected to the card input platform, and the card storage box is connected to the secondary buffer box through a transmission component. An NFC induction module is laid on the transmission component.

[0011] Furthermore, it includes a control chip, a power supply, and an NBIOT module. The control chip, the NBIOT module, and the power supply are respectively arranged in the card storage box. The control chip is connected to the electronic screen, the transmission component, the NFC induction module, and the NBIOT module. The power supply provides the working voltage for the control chip, the transmission component, and the electronic screen.

[0012] Furthermore, the card input platform is a ring frustum, and its cross-section is an inverted trapezoid. The diameter of the card entrance is larger than the diameter of the card exit. The secondary buffer box and the card storage box are respectively square.

[0013] Furthermore, the transmission component includes a rolling track, a rotating motor, and a motor driver. The rotating shafts of the two rotating motors are respectively movably connected to both ends of the rolling track. The NFC induction module is laid on the rolling track, and the motor driver is connected to the rotating motor.

[0014] Furthermore, the NFC induction module is provided with bumps for positioning the access card.

[0015] Furthermore, the bumps are square.

[0016] Advantages of the present utility model

[0017] (1) The convenient recycling device for intelligent highway passing cards of the present utility model designs a passing card input platform in the shape of an inverted trapezoidal circular truncated cone for card recycling, greatly reducing the situation where the card is left on the road due to difficult card insertion by the driver. It is not only convenient to operate, but also improves safety, reducing or even avoiding the situation where the driver of the traditional vertical card collection self-service device needs to get out of the car at the risk of safety to recycle the card again. Since the card entrance of the passing card input platform is relatively large, the driver does not need to accurately insert the passing card into a certain entrance, but only needs to throw the passing card into the passing card input platform and wait for the device to generate a payment QR code.

[0018] (2) The recycling device utilizes the efficiency advantage of near-field communication of the NFC induction module, enabling the passing card to complete the identification of the service fee and generate a payment QR code after falling into the secondary buffer box. The driver does not need to wait extra for the passing card to slowly enter the card collection device, effectively improving the card collection efficiency.

[0019] (3) The recycling device is convenient for maintenance. By adopting a modular design, when a certain structure fails or has problems, the normally operating module can be directly used for replacement, and then the replaced structure can be repaired to ensure that the card collection device can resume normal use in the shortest time.

[0020] (4) The recycling device causes less damage to the passing card. By adopting an open-type collection of passing cards, there is no extrusion or traction force applied to the passing card in the structure, resulting in less damage to the passing card and ensuring the service life of the passing card.

[0027] The following further explains and illustrates the present utility model in conjunction with the attached drawings and specific embodiments. It should be noted that the present specific embodiment is not used to limit the scope of rights of the present utility model.

[0028] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, the convenient recycling device for intelligent highway passing cards provided by this specific embodiment includes a passing card input table 3, a secondary buffer box 4, and a passing card storage box 7 arranged in sequence from top to bottom, as well as a control chip 9, a power supply 10, and an NBIOT module 8 for the toll station gate located in the passing card storage box 7.

[0029] The passing card input table 3 is an annular frustum, and its cross-section is an inverted trapezoid, so that the diameter of the card entrance provided in the upper part of the passing card input table 3 is larger than the diameter of the card exit provided in the lower part.

[0030] An electronic screen 2 is provided on the outer side of the passing card input table 3. The model of the electronic screen is Omnipotent Vision - G121, which is purchased on the market. The electronic screen 2 displays a payment QR code 1 according to the control signal of the control chip 9.

[0031] The secondary buffer box 4 and the passing card storage box 7 are respectively square. The secondary buffer box 4 is connected to the passing card input table 1, and a transmission component is provided between the passing card storage box 7 and the secondary buffer box 4. The function of the transmission component is to buffer and identify the toll situation of the passing card. The transmission component includes a rolling track 6, a rotating motor 12, and a motor driver 11. The rotating shafts of the two rotating motors 12 are respectively movably connected to both ends of the rolling track 6, and the motor driver 11 is connected to the rotating motor 12. The rolling track 6 is driven by the rotating motor 12 to perform a rotating motion. The motor driver 11 is connected to the control chip 9 through a signal line, so that the motor driver 11 controls the motion of the rotating motor 12 according to the control signal of the control chip 9.

[0032] The model of the rotating motor 12 is XD - XD37GB, and the model of the motor driver 11 is RISYM - 7A160W, both of which can be purchased on the market.

[0033] Multiple NFC induction modules 5 are laid on the transmission component. Specifically, the multiple NFC induction modules 5 are adhered to the rolling track 6 using an adhesive. When the passing card falls onto the rolling track 6, the passing card will get stuck in one of the NFC induction modules 5. Since the NFC induction module 5 belongs to near-field communication, the passing card will be identified by the nearest NFC induction module 5. As Figure 4As shown in the figure, bumps 13 for positioning the access card are adhesively bonded to the four ends of each NFC sensing module 5 using an adhesive. The bumps 13 are square-shaped, and their function is to position the access card to ensure that the rolling track 6 can carry the communication card from the secondary buffer box 4 to the access card storage box 7. The NFC sensing module 5 is connected to the control chip 9 via a signal line and transmits the identification and fee information of the access card to the control chip 9. The model of the NFC sensing module 5 is Huaheng-CX522 and it can be purchased on the market.

[0034] The control chip 9 is respectively connected to the electronic screen 2, the motor driver 11, the NFC sensing module 5, and the NBIOT module 8. When the control chip 9 receives the access card fee information transmitted by the NFC sensing module 5, the control chip 9 will generate a charge bill and display it on the electronic screen 2 with the payment QR code 1. After the passing personnel complete the payment, the control chip 9 controls the rolling track 6 to carry the access card from the secondary buffer box 4 to the access card storage box 7, and sends the lifter command to the NBIOT module 8. After receiving the command, the NBIOT module 8 will send this command to the toll station gate via the Internet to open the gate.

[0035] The power supply 10 provides the operating voltage for the control chip 9, the rotating motor 12, the motor driver 11, and the electronic screen 2.

[0036] The control chip 9 can be purchased on the market, and its model is Broadcom-BCM2711. The model of the power supply 10 is Chenke-6SNP and it can be purchased on the market.

[0037] Working principle:

[0038] During use, the passing personnel drop the access card into the access card input platform 3. The bumps 13 position the access card. The access card transmits the identification and fee information to the control chip 9 through the NFC sensing module 5. After the control chip 9 receives the access card fee information transmitted by the NFC sensing module 5, the control chip 9 will generate a charge bill and display it on the electronic screen 2 with the payment QR code 1. After the passing personnel complete the payment, the control chip 9 controls the transmission component to carry the access card from the secondary buffer box 4 to the access card storage box 7, and sends the lifter command to the NBIOT module 8. After receiving the command, the NBIOT module 8 will send this command to the toll station gate via the Internet to open the gate.
