[0039] a camera unit 5, the camera unit 5 is arranged in the accommodation cavity formed by enclosing the first stepped platform 2 and the transparent support plate 4 and is arranged corresponding to the position of the scanning opening 21.
[0040] The technical solution of the present utility model is achieved by providing a first stepped platform 2 on the housing of the stepped foot scanner. The first stepped platform 2 is provided with a first bracket 25 and a scanning opening 21. The scanning opening 21 is arranged at the upper end of the first stepped platform 2. A transparent support plate 4 is arranged on the scanning opening 21. The transparent support plate 4 is detachably connected to the first bracket 25. The camera unit 5 is arranged below the scanning opening 21. The first bracket 25 supports the transparent support plate 4, enabling the person to be scanned to walk to the first stepped platform 2 through the other stepped platforms, stand on the transparent support plate 4, and perform 3D scanning of the feet through the camera unit 5. In this way, it enables the person to be scanned, such as a child, without the help of other tools or external personnel, to be scanned at a higher position, thereby expanding the shooting range of the camera unit 5. Specifically, the camera unit 5 can select a structured light camera, a TOF camera, or a binocular stereo vision camera to perform 3D scanning of the user's feet. The first bracket 25 can be in the shape of a hollow cylinder, a square column, etc., and is detachably connected to the transparent support plate 4 by means of threads, buckles, hinges, etc. The first bracket 25 can be connected to the side wall or bottom of the housing 1, so as to have sufficient supporting force to support the scanner standing on the transparent support plate 4. The transparent support plate 4 can be made of materials such as acrylic plates, PC plates, and PETG plates.
[0041] In one embodiment, the housing 1 is further provided with:
[0042] A second stepped platform 3, provided with a support plate 31. The support plate 31 is arranged at the upper end of the second stepped platform 3. The second stepped platform 3 is arranged below the first stepped platform 2;
[0043] A second bracket 32, arranged on one side of the support plate 31;
[0044] A third bracket 33, arranged on the other side of the support plate 31.
[0045] In this embodiment, the second stepped platform 3 is arranged on the outer wall of the housing 1, below one side of the first stepped platform 2. By providing the support plate 31, the second bracket 32, and the third bracket 33, both sides of the support plate 31 are supported by the second bracket 32 and the third bracket 33, which can support the support plate 31 under the condition of uniform force, so that when the person to be scanned steps onto the support plate 31, the person to be scanned can be more firmly supported, waiting for the person to be scanned to enter the first stepped platform 2 for scanning.
[0046] In summary, the provision of the first stepped platform 2 and the second stepped platform 3 enables the person to be scanned, such as a child, without the help of other tools or external personnel, to be scanned at a higher position by themselves.
[0047] In one embodiment, the support plate 31 is detachably fixed to the second stepped platform 3 by fixing screws.
[0048] In this embodiment, the second bracket 32 and the third bracket 33 can flexibly adjust the position and number of the fixing holes according to the force range, force condition, area size, etc. of the support plate 31 by the developer, so as to meet the requirements under different usage scenarios. In addition, the design of detachable fixing screws makes the installation and disassembly between the support plate 31 and the bracket simple and convenient, improving the work efficiency.
[0049] In practical applications, users can select a suitable fixing hole position according to actual needs and fix the support plate 31 on the bracket through fixing screws. When it is necessary to adjust the position of the support plate 31 or replace it, just loosen the fixing screws to easily complete the disassembly and reinstallation. This design not only facilitates users to flexibly adjust the position and layout of the support plate 31 according to specific scenarios, but also helps to improve the stability and reliability of the device.
[0050] In addition, the fixing hole design of the second bracket 32 and the third bracket 33 also takes into account the force uniformity. By reasonably distributing the positions of the fixing holes, it can be ensured that when the support plate 31 is subjected to an external force, the pressure can be evenly shared, reducing the occurrence of excessive single-point stress, thereby prolonging the service life of the device.
[0051] In one embodiment, the number of the scanning openings 21 is two, which are respectively denoted as the first scanning opening 22 and the second scanning opening 23, and the first scanning opening 22 and the second scanning opening 23 are separated by a partition 24.
[0052] In this embodiment, the scanning opening 21 is provided with the first scanning opening 22, the second scanning opening 23 and the partition 24. The first scanning opening 22 is separated from the second scanning opening 23 by the partition 24. Thus, the camera unit 5 can obtain a first scanning area formed by surrounding the first scanning opening 22, the housing 1 and the partition 24, and a second scanning area formed by surrounding the second scanning opening 23, the housing 1 and the partition 24, so as to better distinguish the scanning effects of the feet of the scanned person.
[0053] In this embodiment, the partition 24 not only plays a role in separating the first scanning opening 22 and the second scanning opening 23, but also plays a role in supporting and strengthening the entire structure of the scanning opening 21. Through a reasonable structural design, the partition 24 can ensure the stability and durability of the scanning opening 21, thereby improving the reliability and service life of the entire scanning device.
[0054] In addition, in order to further improve the accuracy and efficiency of scanning, some auxiliary devices, such as light sources, reflectors, etc., can be arranged inside the partition 24. These auxiliary devices can adjust the position and angle as needed to optimize the light distribution and reflection effect in the scanning area, thereby improving the clarity and accuracy of the scanned image.
[0055] In one embodiment, four corners of the first stepped platform 2 are at least partially configured to be arc-shaped.
[0056] In this embodiment, the four corners of the first step platform 2 are all set to be in an arc shape, which can reduce the risk of injury that the user may suffer when accidentally bumping into the stepped foot sweeper.
[0057] In one embodiment, the height of the end portion 26 of the first stepped platform 2 surrounding the transparent support plate 4 is higher than that of the transparent support plate 4 .
[0058] In this embodiment, not only the outer area of the transparent support plate 4 is effectively surrounded by the surrounding layout of the end 26, but also the height of the end 26 is deliberately set higher than the transparent support plate 4, thereby achieving a specific functional purpose. This design is intended to prevent the feet of the person being scanned from extending out of the range of the transparent support plate 4 during scanning, thereby ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the scanning process, thereby improving the accuracy of the overall scanning.
[0059] In one embodiment, the housing 1 further comprises a bottom plate 7 , and a plurality of protrusions are arranged below the bottom plate 7 .
[0060] In this embodiment, the housing 1 is provided with a bottom plate 7, and a plurality of protrusions for increasing friction are provided below the bottom plate 7, thereby further improving the stability of the entire device when in use. The design of these protrusions not only effectively increases the contact area between the bottom plate 7 and the placement surface, but also enables the entire device to better resist sliding when subjected to external forces through its unique shape and distribution.
[0061] In one embodiment, a button 6 for starting the step-type foot sweeper is also provided on the outer wall of the shell 1.
[0062] In this embodiment, the button 6 can be set as a touch button 6 or a mechanical button 6. The touch button 6 has the advantages of high sensitivity and long service life, while the mechanical button 6 has the characteristics of clear tactile feedback and good operating feel. Users can choose according to personal preferences and usage habits. In addition, in order to increase the recognition of the button 6, different colors, shapes or logos can be set on the button 6 to facilitate users to quickly find and start the step-type foot sweeper.
[0063] In one embodiment, the camera unit 5 is specifically configured as a structured light camera.
[0064] In this embodiment, the camera unit 5 is specifically set as a structured light camera, which can be set as a high-precision three-dimensional measurement device. By projecting a beam of a specific pattern onto the surface of the object to be measured and using the camera to capture the reflected light, the three-dimensional shape information of the surface of the object to be measured can be obtained through image processing algorithm analysis.
[0065] In summary, by using a structured light camera as the camera unit 5, the precise measurement of the three-dimensional shape of the surface of the object to be measured can be achieved, and a better scanning effect can be provided for the scanner.
