[0023] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0024] See also Figure 1-Figure 5The utility model provides an embodiment: a parking lot gate charging device with a remote visual control function, comprising an entry gate 1 and an exit gate 2, both of which include a license plate recognition camera 11, and a monitoring booth 3 located between the entry gate 1 and the exit gate 2, wherein a workbench 31 is provided in the monitoring booth 3, on which two monitors 311 are arranged, and the two monitors 311 are placed left and right, wherein the left monitor 311 is electrically connected to the license plate recognition camera 11 of the entry gate 1, and the right monitor 311 is electrically connected to the license plate recognition camera 11 of the exit gate 2, a rotating rod 32 is provided on the top of the monitoring booth 3, a spherical monitor 321 is hung at one end of the rotating rod 32, and a sensing component 4 is provided on the top of the monitoring booth 3.

[0025] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 In this embodiment, license plate numbers recognized by license plate recognition camera 11 are recorded in the system, and entry gate 1 or exit gate 2 are blocked or released accordingly. The image captured by license plate recognition camera 11 is displayed in real time on display 311. A rotating rod 32 on top of monitoring booth 3 is remotely controlled to move a spherical monitor 321 to either entry gate 1 or exit gate 2. This allows security personnel to remotely observe the license plate number, confirm the information, and remotely open entry gate 1 or exit gate 2 if license plate recognition camera 11 fails to recognize it. A motor 33 is located in the top center area of ​​the inner wall of monitoring booth 3. The output shaft of motor 33 extends upward through monitoring booth 3. A rotating column 322 is located at the end of rotating rod 32, away from spherical monitor 321. The output shaft is inserted into rotating column 322. Rotating rod 32 is driven by motor 33 inside monitoring booth 3, allowing the spherical monitor 321 to provide a view of both entry gate 1 and exit gate 2. The rotating rod 32 connected to the spherical monitor 321 is provided with a caster 34 that fits the bottom of the rotating rod 32 below its center of gravity. The caster 34 serves as a support point for the rotating rod 32, thereby reducing the lateral load on the output shaft of the motor 33 and preventing the motor 33 from being damaged by the yaw force. The rotating rod 32 connected to the spherical monitor 321 is provided with a through hole 323 that passes through the rotating rod 32 at its center of gravity, and a rotating column 341 corresponding to the through hole 323 is provided on the top of the caster 34. In order to enable the caster 34 to rotate with the rotating rod 32, a rotating column 341 is welded to the top of the caster 34. When the rotating rod 32 rotates, the rotating column 341 of the caster 34 can cause the caster 34 to swing relatively, thereby reducing the wear of the caster 34 on the monitoring booth 3.

[0026] See also Figure 2-Figure 5In this embodiment, the sensing component 4 includes a micro switch 41, and the caster 34 can be moved to the top of the sensing component 4. The sensing component 4 senses whether the spherical monitor 321 has moved into place, and when the caster 34 presses on the sensing component 4, the moving motor 33 can stop moving. A groove 35 is provided on the top of the monitoring booth 3, and the micro switch 41 can be placed in the groove 35. A waterproof shell 42 is provided on the top of the micro switch 41, and the upper surface of the waterproof shell 42 is flush with the upper surface of the top of the monitoring booth 3. By making the upper surface of the waterproof shell 42 flush with the top surface of the monitoring booth 3, the sensitivity of the caster 34 pressing on the sensing component 4 is increased. A drainage groove 351 is provided on one side of the groove 35, and the drainage groove 351 is connected to the surface around the monitoring booth 3. The drainage groove 351 can prevent water from accumulating on the sensing component 4 when it rains, and the rainwater can be discharged through the drainage groove 351.

[0027] When operating, the monitoring booth 3 is generally unmanned. The display 311 is paired with the host for the recognition record of the license plate recognition camera 11. The entrance gate 1 or exit gate 2 uses the data recorded by the host to compare the parking time to block or release the vehicle. The exit gate 2 has a display screen that displays the price and payment QR code. When faced with a car with an unsuitable parking angle, a license plate hanging on the side, or a temporary license plate, the license plate recognition camera 11 usually has no recognition ability. At this time, the object sensor of the entrance gate 1 or exit gate 2 will send a signal, but the license plate recognition camera 11 will not send a signal, causing the system software in the host to alarm. The security guard then remotely opens the handheld terminal to check whether the alarm is coming from gate 1 or gate 2. The security guard then uses the handheld terminal to remotely control motor 33, rotating rod 32 to the corresponding position. When caster 34 presses against sensor assembly 4, rod 32 has reached the desired position, and motor 33 stops. The security guard can then fine-tune spherical monitor 321 using the handheld terminal. Spherical monitor 321 has omnidirectional rotation capabilities and is conventional technology, so its operating principle will not be described here. After verifying the entered information, the security guard can control gate 1 or gate 2 to release traffic. When it rains, rainwater leaks through the gap between waterproof housing 42 and recess 35. Because waterproof housing 42 covers microswitch 41, it prevents water from entering the switch. The bottom of microswitch 41 is sealed, so leaking rainwater flows through drain trough 351, preventing water from entering and damaging microswitch 41.

[0028] Through the above steps, a motor 33 is installed in the top center area of ​​the inner wall of monitoring booth 3. The output shaft of motor 33 extends upward through monitoring booth 3. A rotating post 322 is installed at the end of rotating rod 32, away from spherical monitor 321, into which the output shaft is inserted. Rotating rod 32 rotates because it is driven by motor 33 inside monitoring booth 3. The spherical monitor 321 provides a view of both the entrance gate 1 and exit gate 2. This solves the problem that existing cameras cannot recognize cars parked at awkward angles, with license plates hanging sideways or with temporary license plates. In high-end parking lots, the driver's parking experience is greatly affected by the need to manually enter the license plate number or register a WeChat official account.
