[0022] Specifically, when replacing consumables for the photo printer 20, there are two ways to move the photo printer 20 to the outside of the shell 10: Method 1, open the first side wall 11, and move the photo printer 20 and various components to the outside of the shell 10 at the same time; Method 2, only open the printer maintenance window, and move the photo printer 20 alone to the outside of the shell 10 through the second guide rail 31.

[0023] Specifically, the touch screen display 40 is used for parameter selection, photo fine-tuning, and photo preview when taking photos.

[0024] Specifically, the multiple components installed on the inner side of the first side wall 11 include a 7-inch payment screen, a QR code sensor or a bank card reader and other devices, which are used to complete the payment after taking a photo.

[0025] Preferably, a plurality of reinforcing ribs are provided in the shell 10 , and the plurality of reinforcing ribs form an internal frame of the shell 10 , and the two first guide rails 12 are respectively fixed on the internal frame; the two first guide rails 12 are respectively provided on the two vertices of the diagonal line of the first side wall 11 .

[0026] Preferably, the first guide rail 12 includes a first fixing member 121, a first sliding member 122 and a triangular connecting member 123, the first fixing member 121 is fixedly arranged on the internal frame, the first sliding member 122 slides horizontally along the fixing member, the triangular connecting member 123 is a right-angled triangle, one right-angled side of the triangular connecting member 123 is fixedly connected to the first sliding member 122, and the other right-angled side of the triangular connecting member 123 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the first side wall 11, so that the first side wall 11 moves driven by the two first guide rails 12.

[0027] Preferably, the photo printer 20 is arranged on the printer bracket 30; the printer bracket 30 includes a supporting portion 32 and a movable portion 33, the movable portion 33 is arranged above the supporting portion 32 and is connected by two parallel second guide rails 31; the bottom of the supporting portion 32 is fixedly connected to the bottom plate of the shell 10.

[0028] Preferably, the second guide rail 31 includes a second fixing member 311 and a second sliding member 312, the second fixing member 311 is arranged at the top of the supporting part 32, and the second sliding member 312 is arranged at the bottom of the movable part 33, through which the second guide rail 31 is used to make the movable part 33 move horizontally along the second guide rail 31.

[0029] Specifically, the first side wall 11 is provided on a side of the self-service photo taking terminal. The first side wall 11 moves horizontally along the first guide rail 12, and the photo printer 20 moves toward the outside of the shell 10 synchronously, so that the photo printer 20 extends out of the shell 10 to facilitate consumable replacement and maintenance.

[0032] Specifically, the length direction of the bar-shaped through hole 331 is the same as the moving direction of the photo printer 20. When the photo printer 20 moves, the bolt can move in the bar-shaped through hole 331 to achieve fine-tuning and limiting the position of the photo printer 20, so that the end of the photo printer 20 is always located above the movable part 33 to prevent it from detaching from the movable part 33 and falling.

[0033] Preferably, the installation position of the first guide rail 12 connected to the lower end of the first side wall 11 is lower than the installation position of the movable portion 33 .

[0034] Specifically, the lower end of the first side wall 11 is lower than the bottom of the photo printer 20 to prevent the photo printer 20 from colliding with the side wall when moving.

[0035] Preferably, the printer maintenance window has a photo throughput port, and the output side of the photo printer 20 is provided with a photo collection channel 21, with both ends of the photo collection channel 21 connected to the photo printer 20 and the photo throughput port 111, respectively. Printed photos are transferred to the photo throughput port 111 through the photo collection channel 21, and customers can remove the printed photos through the photo throughput port 111.

[0036] Specifically, the housing 10 includes a rear cover that is rotatably connected to the housing 10. The self-service photo terminal is typically placed against a wall. For maintenance of the entire device or the touchscreen display 40 or camera 50, the entire device can be moved and the rear cover opened for maintenance. For routine consumable replacement, simply open the first side wall 11 or move the photo printer 20 outside the housing 10 through the printer maintenance window to facilitate consumable replacement, facilitating routine maintenance.

[0037] In the aforementioned easy-to-maintain outdoor self-service photo terminal 100, the first side wall 11 is opened and moved along the first guide rail 12, allowing the photo printer 20 and various components installed within the first side wall 11 to simultaneously extend out of the housing 10 for maintenance. Alternatively, the printer maintenance window is opened, and the photo printer 20 is moved along the second guide rail 31, allowing it to be independently extended out of the housing 10. This allows for independent operation and replacement of consumables on the photo printer 20, simplifying routine maintenance of the photo printer 20 while preventing contact with other components within the housing 10 and preventing accidental damage. This product of the utility model has a simple structure, is easy to produce, is low-cost, and is readily marketable.
