[0030] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Example 1

[0031] Reference Figure 1-Figure 7 A channel-type non-stop RFID batch identification device includes an intermediate conveyor frame 1, a plurality of intermediate conveyor rollers 5 for material identification are rotatably connected between the two sides of the intermediate conveyor frame 1, and the intermediate conveyor rollers 5 rotate to convey the materials. A bottom RFID antenna 6 is provided between the inner walls of the two sides of the intermediate conveyor frame 1, and the bottom RFID antenna 6 is provided below the intermediate conveyor rollers 5. The top of the intermediate conveyor frame 1 is fixedly connected to a box body 2, and the inner walls of the two sides of the box body 2 are provided with side RFID antennas 16. The top of the box body 2 is provided with a top RFID antenna 17;

[0032] Absorbing plates 8 are fixedly installed between the inner walls of the middle conveyor frame 1, on the top of the box body 2, and on both sides of the box body 2. A cavity is provided in the middle of the absorbing plates 8. The bottom RFID antenna 6, the side RFID antenna 16, and the top RFID antenna 17 are fixedly installed in the cavity respectively. The absorbing plates 8 absorb excess reflected electromagnetic waves to control and identify the direction of electromagnetic waves in the box body 2 and effectively filter out reflected electromagnetic waves.

[0033] The bottom RFID antenna 6, the side RFID antenna 16 and the top RFID antenna 17 are all narrow beam antennas. The narrow beam antenna can convert electromagnetic waves with a horizontal lobe angle of less than 30°, a wide axial ratio, a wide bandwidth, and circular polarization, control the range of electromagnetic waves emitted by the antenna, and narrow the electromagnetic wave area, thereby achieving control of the RFID scanning interval without the need to use other means (such as RFID shielding doors, etc.) for electromagnetic wave isolation. Example 2

[0034] Reference Figure 1-Figure 7 , the utility model provides a new technical solution based on embodiment 1:

[0035] In the present invention, the wave absorbing plate 8 is a solid polyurethane pyramid plate, and the composite effect of the pyramid structure and the polyurethane achieves efficient wave absorption.

[0036] In particular, a plurality of photoelectric switches 9 are fixedly installed on both sides of the middle conveying frame 1 , and the photoelectric switches 9 are used to control the entry of materials into the box body 2 .

[0037] It should be noted that the circumferences of the plurality of intermediate conveying rollers 5 are fixedly connected to polygonal fixing frames 13 , and when the goods pass through the fixing frames 13 , a shaking effect can be generated, thereby increasing the space for electromagnetic waves to enter.

[0038] In the present invention, one end of the intermediate conveying roller 5 is fixedly connected to two intermediate sprockets 14, and the multiple intermediate sprockets 14 are connected by chain transmission to drive the intermediate conveying rollers 5 to rotate synchronously for material transportation. One side of the intermediate conveying frame 1 is fixedly connected to a fixed frame 10, and one side of the fixed frame 10 is fixedly connected to a driving motor 11. One end of the output shaft of the driving motor 11 is fixedly connected to two driving sprockets 15, one of which is connected to one of the intermediate sprockets 14 by chain transmission to drive the intermediate conveying roller 5 to rotate. The driving motor 11 drives multiple intermediate conveying rollers 5 to rotate through the intermediate sprockets 14 and the driving sprockets 15 to convey materials.

[0039] In particular, both ends of the intermediate conveying frame 1 are provided with an extended conveying mechanism for conveying materials, and the extended conveying mechanism includes an extended conveying frame 4, and multiple first conveying rollers 24 are rotatably connected between the two sides of the extended conveying frame 4, and one end of the multiple first conveying rollers 24 is fixedly connected to two first sprockets 20, and the multiple first sprockets 20 are connected by chain transmission to drive the first conveying rollers 24 to rotate synchronously. The extended conveying frame 4 is therefore fixedly connected to a first motor 19, and one end of the output shaft of the first motor 19 is fixedly connected to two second sprockets 23, one of the second sprockets 23 is connected to one of the first sprockets 20 by chain transmission to drive the first conveying roller 24 to rotate, and the first motor 19 drives the first conveying roller 24 to rotate through the second sprocket 23 and the first sprocket 20 to convey the material.

[0040] It should be noted that the bottoms of the intermediate conveyor frame 1 and the extended conveyor frame 4 are fixedly connected with fixed blocks 21, the bottoms of the fixed blocks 21 are threadedly connected with support feet 22, and the bottoms of the intermediate conveyor frame 1 and the extended conveyor frame 4 are fixedly installed with directional wheels 12, which facilitate the movement of the equipment.

[0041] In the present invention, an industrial control computer 3 is fixedly installed on the top of the box body 2.

[0042] In particular, curtains 18 are fixedly installed on the top and both sides of the box body 2, and the curtains 18 are used to increase the aesthetics.

[0043] Working principle: Start the drive motor 11 and the first motor 19. The drive motor 11 drives multiple intermediate conveyor rollers 5 to rotate through the intermediate sprocket 14 and the drive sprocket 15. The first motor 19 drives the first conveyor roller 24 to rotate through the second sprocket 23 and the first sprocket 20. Then, the material to be identified is placed on the equipment, and then the intermediate conveyor roller 5 and the first conveyor roller 24 drive the material to move. When the material enters the box 2, the bottom RFID antenna 6, the side RFID antenna 16 and the top RFID antenna 17 are started to perform batch identification of RFID goods. The narrow beam antenna can convert a horizontal lobe angle of less than 30°, a wide axis ratio, and a wide bandwidth. Wide and circularly polarized electromagnetic waves control the range of electromagnetic waves emitted by antenna 7 and narrow the electromagnetic wave area, thereby achieving control of the RFID scanning interval. There is no need to use other means (such as RFID shielding doors, etc.) to isolate electromagnetic waves. When the middle conveyor roller 5 in the middle rotates, it drives the fixed frame 13 to rotate. The fixed frame 13 is used to achieve a shaking effect when the goods pass through, increasing the space for electromagnetic waves to enter, so that the electromagnetic waves can better activate the RFID tags attached to the goods. During the identification process, the absorbing material can absorb excess reflected electromagnetic waves to control the direction of electromagnetic waves in the identification box 2 and effectively filter out reflected electromagnetic waves.

[0044] However, as is well known to those skilled in the art, the working principles and wiring methods of the industrial computer 3, bottom RFID antenna 6, antenna 7, photoelectric switch 9, side RFID antenna 16, top RFID antenna 17, first motor 19, and drive motor 11 are commonplace, and are all conventional means or common knowledge, so they will not be elaborated here. Those skilled in the art can make any selections according to their needs or convenience.

[0045] The above is only a preferred specific implementation method of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this. Any technician familiar with the technical field within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention can make equivalent replacements or changes based on the technical solution and utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
