Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a column-type exit ticket-adjusting machine. Background Art

[0002] Existing column-type exit ticket gates are primarily used at the exit gates of national railway stations, including high-speed and conventional railways. They are operated by staff to assist passengers who encounter difficulties using the self-service exit ticket gates. Currently, these column-type exit ticket gates at national railway stations only provide basic ticket and exit functions. The hardware is relatively simple, consisting solely of an operator interface, facial recognition, and an ID / QR code reader located on the top of the gate. Operators use interactive screens to assist passengers with ticket checking, tailored to the specific application scenario. Passengers, following the operator's instructions, present their corresponding ticket or ID card. After the column-type exit ticket gate reads their ticket, the operator assists the passenger with ticket checking at the machine. Passengers are then allowed to exit the station after ticket checking is complete.

[0003] The column-type exit ticket gates are too simple in their functionality, lacking any other functions besides ticket checking. Specifically, they lack the ability to reissue tickets. If a ticket reissue is required, dedicated staff members must use a POS machine to collect payment or go to the ticket reissue office at the national railway station exit. They also lack the ability to process boarding vouchers, rendering them completely unable to respond to situations such as failure to enter the station or purchasing a short trip for a longer ride. Column-type exit ticket gates only support national railway boarding vouchers such as ID cards and 12306 boarding codes, and are completely unable to support intercity railway boarding vouchers operated as public transportation. Boarding vouchers for intercity railways operated as public transportation include electronic boarding codes generated by mini-programs (such as WeChat and Alipay mini-programs), physical transportation cards for subways and / or buses, and paper QR code one-way tickets.

[0004] It can be seen that in the face of the business demand for using WeChat, Alipay, physical transportation cards and other travel vouchers to operate intercity railways as public transportation, the existing column-type exit ticket machines have two major problems: they are unable to make up for the tickets and cannot support public transportation vouchers. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model provides a column-type exit ticket supplement machine, which can verify the public transportation boarding certificate with real name, reissue the paper QR code one-way ticket, handle the abnormal situation of exit, and carry out linkage control of the exit gate, taking into account the more functions of the exit ticket supplement room, and can meet the three-in-one authentication and ticket inspection and verification requirements of the "ticket, certificate, and person" of the public transportation operation of intercity railways, thereby improving the efficiency of passengers exiting the station and ensuring the safety of railway operations.

[0006] According to one aspect of the embodiment, a column-type exit ticket re-issuing machine is proposed, which is used at the exit of an intercity railway bus-operated station to verify boarding credentials including a paper QR code one-way ticket, a physical transportation card and an electronic boarding code; paper QR code one-way tickets are reissued to passengers who do not have a boarding certificate, have lost their boarding certificate, or use a paper QR code one-way ticket to travel beyond their stop, or buy a short trip but take a long trip; and under special circumstances, all exit gates are controlled and linked, acting as a comprehensive control and processing center.

[0007] In some examples, the column-type exit ticket machine is connected to a server that stores the passenger's facial ID, and the column-type exit ticket machine includes: a fuselage; an interactive screen arranged on the fuselage for human-computer interaction and collection of portrait information when renewing the ticket; an identification device, which is arranged in the fuselage, including a reader and a scanning terminal connected to the reader for identifying paper QR code one-way tickets and electronic boarding codes, as well as an antenna for reading and writing transportation cards and reading identity cards, and the fuselage has a card reading area corresponding to the antenna and a code scanning area corresponding to the scanning terminal; a communication module, which obtains the facial ID from the server; a facial verification machine arranged on the fuselage for comparing the portrait information with the facial ID; a printer, which is arranged in the fuselage, and has a ticket outlet on the fuselage; and an industrial computer, which is connected to the facial verification machine, the interactive screen, the reader, the communication module and the printer.

[0008] In some examples, the industrial computer controls the printer to print a reissued paper QR code one-way ticket based on the ticket replacement information obtained from the interactive screen, and when the portrait information is consistent with the face ID, the reissued paper QR code one-way ticket contains the face ID, thereby realizing the ticket replacement function.

[0009] In some examples, the column-type exit ticket machine is used as a ticket checking machine, and the industrial computer uses the antenna based on the reader to read and write the transportation card, or the reader uses the scanning terminal to scan the paper QR code one-way ticket or the electronic boarding code to realize ticket checking and fee deduction.

[0010] In some examples, the column-type exit ticket adjustment machine is connected to the ticket gate at the exit to control the opening and closing of the ticket gate. The column-type exit ticket adjustment machine has a button for controlling the opening and closing of the ticket gate, or the interactive screen has a control for controlling the opening and closing of the ticket gate.

[0011] In some examples, the electronic ride code is generated by a mini-program deployed on WeChat and / or Alipay.

[0012] In some examples, the transportation card is a physical card issued by a city that operates intercity rail transit and used for taking the subway and / or bus.

[0013] In some examples, the face ID is a desensitized face ID.

[0014] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The recognition device enables the column-type exit ticket adjustment machine to use public transportation boarding vouchers and handle abnormal exit situations. The printer enables the column-type exit ticket adjustment machine to reissue paper single-trip tickets. The column-type exit ticket adjustment machine has the ability to control and operate the entire row of dedicated ticket gates at the exit, improving the flexibility of the exit ticket gate. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0015] Figure 1 This is the block diagram of a column-type exit ticket adjustment machine.

[0016] Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of a column-type exit ticket adjustment machine. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0017] The column-type exit ticket adjustment machine of the present invention is deployed at the exit of the intercity railway public transportation operation. The intercity railway public transportation operation uses electronic boarding codes, physical transportation cards and paper QR code single-trip tickets as boarding credentials. The electronic boarding code is a QR code generated by the WeChat applet and the Alipay applet. The physical transportation card is a transportation card (commonly known as: bus card) issued by the city where the intercity railway public transportation operation is carried out for taking the subway and / or bus. In order to meet the needs of the intercity railway public transportation operation for the three-in-one verification of "ticket, certificate, and person", all passengers must complete a one-to-one binding of the boarding certificate they hold with the passenger identity before passing through security. That is, the binding of the electronic boarding code, the physical bus card and the paper QR code single-trip ticket with the passenger's identity information. The bound identity information includes a desensitized face ID.

[0018] like Figure 1 、 Figure 2 As shown, the column-type exit ticket machine includes: a face verification machine 1, an interactive screen 2, an identification device, a printer, a communication module and an industrial computer.

[0019] The facial verification device 1 and interactive screen 2 are mounted above the body 3 and can be integrated. The interactive screen 2 is used for human-machine interaction when rebooking tickets and for collecting passenger portrait information when the facial verification device initiates facial verification. The interactive screen 2 can be configured as two panels: one for staff to enter rebooking information, or to enter entry information if a passenger's entry record is missing; the other for displaying the staff's entered rebooking information and collecting passenger portrait information.

[0020] The identification device is set in the fuselage 3, which includes a reader and a scanning terminal connected to the reader for identifying paper QR code one-way tickets and electronic boarding codes, as well as an antenna for reading and writing physical transportation cards and reading identity cards. The fuselage 3 has a card reading area 4 corresponding to the antenna and a code scanning area 5 corresponding to the scanning terminal.

[0021] The printer can be a thermal printer, which is set in the body 3 and is used to print the reissued paper QR code one-way ticket. The body 3 is provided with a ticket outlet 6.

[0022] The communication module obtains the face ID that matches the portrait information from the server.

[0023] The column-type exit ticket adjustment machine is connected to a server that stores passengers' facial IDs. An industrial computer connects to the facial verification machine, interactive screen, reader / writer, communication module, and printer, controlling each component to enable ticket adjustment, exception handling, ticket checking, and coordinated control of other ticket inspection machines.

[0024] Taking a paper QR code single-trip ticket as an example, a re-ticket is issued to passengers who have lost their ticket, entered the station without a ticket, or missed their stop (buying a short trip and riding a long distance). When re-ticketing, the staff communicates with the passenger to determine their departure station. Then, under the control of the industrial computer: the interactive screen obtains the ticket re-ticket information entered by the staff. The industrial computer uses the communication module to obtain the facial ID from the server and transmits it to the facial verification machine. The interactive screen also starts facial information collection to obtain the passenger's portrait information in front of the column-type exit ticket re-ticket machine. The facial verification machine compares the facial ID with the portrait information. If the passenger needs to make up the fare (passengers who buy a short trip and ride a long distance need to make up the difference), the interactive screen displays the amount to be paid and the payment QR code. If the facial ID and the portrait information are consistent and the passenger completes the payment, the industrial computer controls the printer to print the re-issued paper QR code single-trip ticket. During the printing process, the desensitized facial ID is bound to the paper QR code single-trip ticket.

[0025] The column-type exit ticket adjustment machine of the present invention has the facial verification capability based on Alipay technology, which replaces the 12306 verification capability of the original national railway system and ensures the effectiveness of facial verification.

[0026] Taking physical transit cards and electronic travel codes as an example, anomalies include missing entry records (passengers failing to swipe their card or scan the code upon entering). Staff communicate with the passenger to determine their departure station and enter their entry information into the ticketing system. Passengers can then swipe their card or scan the code to exit the station normally. For those skilled in the art, this ticketing system is standard.

[0027] The column-type exit ticket adjustment machine of this utility model also has a ticket checking function. For example, when the station is crowded, the column-type exit ticket adjustment machine can be used for ticket checking. The column-type exit ticket adjustment machine can read the ticket information and perform ticket verification or deduct the fare.

[0028] The specific process of ticket checking at the column-type exit ticket supplement machine is as follows: If the boarding voucher is a paper QR code one-way ticket, under the control of the industrial computer, the reader / writer uses the scanning terminal to scan the QR code of the paper QR code one-way ticket to obtain the unique code of the paper QR code one-way ticket, the starting station, the destination station, the train number and the train departure time and other ticket purchase information, and judges the ticket checking result based on the ticket purchase information and ticketing rules. For example, if the current station is the destination station, the interactive screen will be used to prompt that the ticket checking is successful. If the current station is beyond the destination station (commonly known as: buy short and ride long), the interactive screen will be used to prompt that the ticket checking is unsuccessful, and the passenger needs to be reminded to make a supplementary ticket. If the destination station is in front of the current station (get off the train in advance), it can also be regarded as a successful ticket checking, and the interactive screen will be used to prompt.

[0029] If the fare voucher is a physical transportation card, under the control of the industrial computer, the reader uses an antenna to record the exit information from the physical transportation card (the entry information is written when entering the station), and completes the deduction operation based on the ticketing rules. After the operation is successful, the interactive screen will prompt that the ticket inspection is successful.

[0030] If the boarding voucher is an electronic QR code, the reader / writer, under the control of the industrial computer, uses the scanning terminal to scan the electronic QR code, and queries the passenger's departure station (entry information) based on the information of the electronic QR code on the background server. The fee is calculated based on the ticketing rules, the departure station and the current station, and the fee is deducted (through the password-free deduction function of Alipay / WeChat), and the interactive screen is used to prompt that the ticket check is successful.

[0031] The collaborative control method of the various parts by the industrial control computer is a conventional method, that is, the utility model does not involve the improvement of the method, but integrates the existing face verification equipment, interactive screen, reader, printer and industrial control computer to obtain a new physical structure and line structure. Driven by a simple program, the line structure can verify the real-name public transportation boarding certificate, reissue the paper QR code one-way ticket, and handle abnormal situations, meeting the "ticket, certificate, and person" three-in-one authentication and ticket inspection requirements of the intercity railway public transportation operation, improving the efficiency of passengers exiting the station and ensuring the safety of railway operations.

[0032] In addition, the column-type exit ticket gate also supports the ability to control other exit ticket gates (the column-type exit ticket supplement machine has a button to control the switch of the ticket gate, or the interactive screen has a control to control the switch of the ticket gate). In extraordinary times or emergency situations, the operator can control all exit ticket gates in a short time by operating the column-type exit ticket supplement machine, which has great operational flexibility. The ticket gate is a conventional device for those skilled in the art. Moreover, the ticket checking principle of the column-type exit ticket supplement machine is the same as that of the ticket gate. Therefore, the ticket gate will not be introduced in detail.

[0033] In summary, the column-type exit ticket machine of the present invention has the ability to sell paper QR code one-way tickets, verify boarding vouchers including paper QR code one-way tickets, physical transportation cards and electronic boarding codes; reissue paper QR code one-way tickets to passengers who do not have boarding vouchers, have lost their boarding vouchers, or use paper QR code one-way tickets to travel beyond their stop, or buy short-distance and long-distance tickets; update and process tickets for abnormal situations that occur when reissuing tickets (such as no entry records, etc.), improve the business functions of traditional column-type exit ticket machines, and achieve integrated demand coverage. The column-type exit ticket machine of the present invention has the ability to process various types of public transportation vouchers, and better adapts to the needs of intercity railway public transportation operations. The column-type exit ticket machine of the present invention has the ability to collectively control other special ticket checking machines at the exit end, and can evacuate and control the flow of people in the station more quickly and better in extraordinary times or emergency situations.
