Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of POS machine products with a magnetic head card swiping function, in particular to an elastic magnetic head bracket component. Background Art

[0002] With the rise in popularity of electronic payments, POS machines are widely used in commercial transactions. The magnetic head, a key component for reading bank card information, is crucial for POS machines. The stability and reliability of its mounting and fixation impact the security and accuracy of transactions. Currently, commercially available POS machine magnetic heads often require two housings for mounting, rigidly locking the head directly to the head bracket with screws (see Chinese Patent CN104361694A for details). This approach presents drawbacks such as high cost, poor card swiping feel, and the risk of inaccurate reading, card failure, and a poor user experience.

[0003] Therefore, an elastic head support assembly is urgently needed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem solved by the utility model is to provide an elastic magnetic head support assembly with excellent magnetic head card swiping feeling and reliable and stable performance.

[0006] In order to solve the above technical problems, the elastic head support assembly provided by the utility model includes a magnetic head, a head support, a locking piece, a base body and an elastic piece, the base body is provided with a receiving groove for accommodating the elastic piece, the elastic piece is built into the receiving groove, the magnetic head is connected to the head support, the head support is located between the elastic piece and the base body, the locking piece passes through the head support and is connected to the base body, and the head support is elastically arranged between the base body and the elastic piece.

[0007] Preferably, the seat body includes a main body seat, a lower bearing step and an upper pressing piece, the lower bearing step is arranged on the main body seat, the upper pressing piece is arranged on the main body seat, the upper pressing piece is located above the lower bearing step and a movable gap is formed between the two for the head bracket to extend into.

[0008] Specifically, the head support extends outward to form a connecting piece, the connecting piece is inserted into the movable gap, a connecting hole is formed on the connecting piece, and the locking member is inserted into the head support through the connecting hole.

[0009] Specifically, the head support extends to both sides to form two connecting pieces, and the two connecting pieces are symmetrically arranged on the head support, and one connecting piece corresponds to one upper pressing piece and the lower bearing step.

[0010] Specifically, the upper pressing piece and the lower bearing step are arranged alternately along the height direction of the main body seat.

[0011] Preferably, the locking element is a PIN pin.

[0012] Preferably, the head support is provided with a positioning groove corresponding to the magnetic head.

[0013] Specifically, the lower bearing step is provided with a locking groove corresponding to the locking piece.

[0014] Specifically, when the locking member is locked in the locking groove, a gap exists between the bottom end surface of the locking member and the top end surface of the lower bearing step for the head support to move up and down.

[0015] The utility model provides an elastic magnetic head support assembly having the following beneficial effects:

[0016] The difference from the existing solution is that: a locking part is added to the magnetic head bracket to lock the magnetic head, which makes disassembly and assembly simple and the magnetic head reliability is good; an elastic part is added around the locking part below the magnetic head. When the magnetic head swipes the card, the magnetic head bracket applies downward pressure to the elastic part. After the magnetic stripe card passes, the elastic part rebounds upward, greatly improving the feel of magnetic card swiping. At the same time, the buffering effect of the elastic part protects the force on the magnetic head.

[0017] The utility model provides a POS machine, which comprises the elastic magnetic head support assembly. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0022] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and implementation examples.

[0023] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4The POS machine of the present invention includes an elastic magnetic head support assembly 100, which includes a magnetic head 1, a magnetic head support 2, a locking member 3, a base 4, and an elastic member 5. The base 4 is provided with a receiving groove 41 for receiving the elastic member 5. The receiving groove 41 is a groove structure with an opening facing upward, and the cross section of the receiving groove 41 is a circular ring structure. The elastic member 5 is built into the receiving groove 41. The elastic member 5 is built into the receiving groove 41. The magnetic head 1 is connected to the magnetic head support 2, and the magnetic head support 2 is located between the elastic member 5 and the base 4. The locking member 3 passes through the magnetic head support 2 and is connected to the base 4. The magnetic head support 2 is elastically arranged between the base 4 and the elastic member 5, so that the magnetic head 1 on the magnetic head support 2 can move up and down elastically. More specifically, as follows:

[0024] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 The seat body 4 includes a main body seat 42, a lower bearing step 43 and an upper pressing piece 44. The lower bearing step 43 is arranged on the main body seat 42, and the upper pressing piece 44 is arranged on the main body seat 42. The upper pressing piece 44 is located above the lower bearing step 43 and a movable gap 45 is formed between the two for the head bracket 2 to extend into.

[0025] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 The head bracket 2 extends outward to form a connecting piece 21, which is an elastic spring. The connecting piece 21 is inserted into the movable gap 45. A connecting hole 211 is opened on the connecting piece 21. The locking piece 3 is placed in the head bracket 2 through the connecting hole 211 to connect the connecting piece 21 to the head bracket 2.

[0026] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 The head support 2 extends to both sides to form two connecting pieces 21. The two connecting pieces 21 are symmetrically arranged on the head support 2, with each connecting piece 21 corresponding to an upper pressing piece 44 and a lower supporting step 43. Preferably, the upper pressing piece 44 and the lower supporting step 43 are arranged in a staggered manner along the height direction of the main body 42. Preferably, the locking piece 3 is a PIN, but is not limited to this.

[0027] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 The head support 2 is provided with a positioning groove 22 corresponding to the head 1. The lower bearing step 43 of the base 4 is provided with a locking groove 431 corresponding to the locking member 3. The locking groove 431 is located inside the accommodating groove 41.

[0028] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 When the locking member 3 is locked in the locking groove 431 , there is a gap 3 a between the bottom end surface of the locking member 3 and the top end surface of the lower bearing step 43 for the head support 2 to move up and down.

[0029] By adding a locking part 3 to the head bracket 2 to lock the magnetic head 1, disassembly and assembly are simple and the reliability of the magnetic head 1 is good; an elastic part 5 is added around the locking part 3 below the magnetic head 1. When the magnetic head 1 swipes the card, the head bracket 2 applies downward pressure to the elastic part 5. After the magnetic stripe card passes, the elastic part 5 rebounds upward, which greatly improves the feel of magnetic card swiping. At the same time, the buffering effect of the elastic part 5 protects the force applied to the magnetic head 1.

[0030] The above are merely embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the patent scope of the present invention. Any equivalent structure or equivalent process transformation made using the contents of the present invention specification and drawings, or directly or indirectly applied in other related technical fields, are also included in the patent protection scope of the present invention.
