By swiping the payment card against the inner wall of the inductive card slot of the POS machine, the POS machine recognizes the card magnetic stripe and performs the corresponding payment processing. Finally, the POS machine prints a sales receipt and updates the inventory and sales data. However, during use, the inductive element on the inner wall of the card slot is always static, which gradually absorbs dust in the air, causing the card slot to accumulate dust and dirt. During use, the sensor recognition distance increases, resulting in recognition failure. In addition, the dust increases the friction between the bank card and the inner wall when swiping the card, causing the bank card to break and be damaged, which reduces the user experience and affects sales. To address this problem, the present invention solves this problem by installing an upper cover and side baffles. When using the POS machine, the user presses the pressure plate downward to rotate the connecting rod and the main rotating rod, lift the upper cover and side baffles, and expose the card swiping slot. After the user swipes the card into the card swiping slot and releases the card, the retaining spring rebounds, causing the connecting rod to rotate in the opposite direction, and the cover is returned to the device, covering the card swiping slot and preventing the accumulation of dirt in the card swiping slot, thereby improving the stability of the device.

[0014] 2. In the prior art, when using a POS machine, one hand is required to hold the device and the other hand to operate it. When pressing the pressure plate, single-handed control will cause the center of gravity of the device to be unstable, causing the device to fall and cause damage to the device. To address this problem, the present invention solves it by installing a side strap. When using the device, the user can put the side strap on the back of the hand, making it more convenient to hold the POS machine, and preventing the device from falling during use, thereby improving the user experience.

[0015] 3. In the existing technology, some merchants place POS machines on the desktop. When using them, consumers need to lean forward and make their eyes parallel to the device before they can use it. Consumers consume a lot of physical energy when leaning forward, which affects the user experience and device operation. To solve this problem, the utility model adopts the method of installing a reversing support plate. When the merchant rotates the reversing support plate to support the POS machine, the POS body is placed at an angle to the desktop, which is convenient for users to operate and view, thereby improving the user experience.

[0023] The specific embodiments of the present utility model are described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Specific embodiment:

[0025] Reference Figure 1-4, a POS machine anti-fouling card slot structure, including a POS body 1, a card swiping slot 101 is opened on the top of the POS body 1, a rotating part 2 is fixed at one end of the POS body 1, the inner wall of the rotating part 2 is rotatably connected to the main rotating rod 201, a connecting rod 202 is fixed on the surface of the main rotating rod 201, an upper cover 203 is fixed at one end of the connecting rod 202, side baffles 204 are fixed on both sides of the upper cover 203, a pressure plate 208 is fixed at the other end of the connecting rod 202, a secondary rotating rod 206 is fixed on the inner wall of the rotating part 2, a retaining spring 207 is provided on the surface of the secondary rotating rod 206, one end of the retaining spring 207 is fixed to the bottom of the connecting rod 202, and the other end of the retaining spring 207 is fixed to one end of the POS body 1. The main payment method of the POS machine is swiping the card. By swiping the payment card on the inner wall of the induction card slot of the POS machine, the POS machine recognizes the card magnetic stripe and performs corresponding payment processing. Finally, the POS machine prints out a sales receipt and updates Inventory and sales data, and during use, since the sensor on the inner wall of the card slot always carries static electricity, it will gradually absorb dust in the air, causing the card slot to accumulate dust and dirt, which will increase the sensor recognition distance during use and lead to failure to recognize. In addition, when swiping the card, the dust increases the friction between the bank card and the inner wall, causing the bank card to break and be damaged, which reduces the user experience and affects sales. This is solved by installing the upper cover 203 and the side baffle 204. When the user uses the POS machine, he presses the pressure plate 208 downward to rotate the connecting rod 202 and the main rotating rod 201, lifts the upper cover 203 and the side baffle 204, and exposes the card swiping slot 101. After the user swipes the card into the card swiping slot 101 and lets go, the retaining spring 207 rebounds to make the connecting rod 202 rotate in the opposite direction, and puts the cover back on the device to block the card swiping slot 101 and prevent the card swiping slot 101 from accumulating dirt, thereby improving the stability of the device. A pig nose piece 301 is fixed to the other end of the POS body 1. The user can pass the cord through the pig nose piece 301 and then loop it around their wrist for easy carrying. A curved groove 103 is provided on the other end of the POS body 1 to facilitate vertical placement of the device. A rubber pad 104 is fixed to the bottom of the POS body 1 to increase friction between the device and the desktop. A friction groove 205 is provided on the surface of the pressure plate 208 to facilitate pressure.

[0026] There are side straps 102 fixed on both sides of the POS body 1. When the POS machine is in use, one hand is required to hold the device and the other hand is required to operate it. When pressing the pressure plate 208, single-handed control will cause the center of gravity of the device to be unstable, causing the device to fall and damage the device. The side straps 102 are installed to solve this problem. When the user uses the device, the side straps 102 can be put on the back of the hand, making it more convenient to hold the POS machine and avoid the device falling during use, thereby improving the user experience. The bottom of the POS body 1 is rotatably connected to a reversing support plate 3. Some merchants place the POS machine on the desktop. When using it, consumers need to lean forward and make their eyes parallel to the device before they can use it. When consumers lean forward, they consume a lot of physical energy, which affects the user experience and device operation. The reversing support plate 3 is installed to solve this problem. The merchant can rotate the reversing support plate 3 to support the POS machine. In addition, the POS body 1 is placed at an angle to the desktop, which is convenient for users to operate and view, thereby improving the user experience.

[0027] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: when a user uses the POS machine, he presses the pressure plate 208 downward to rotate the connecting rod 202 and the main rotating rod 201, lifts the upper cover plate 203 and the side baffle 204, and exposes the card swiping slot 101. After the user swipes the card into the card swiping slot 101 and lets go, the retaining spring 207 rebounds to make the connecting rod 202 rotate in the opposite direction, and puts the cover back on the device to block the card swiping slot 101 and prevent dirt from accumulating in the card swiping slot 101. When using the device, the user can put the side strap 102 on the back of the hand, so that it is more convenient to hold the POS machine. The merchant can rotate the reversing support plate 3 to support the POS machine, and place the POS body 1 at an angle to the desktop for user operation and viewing.
