Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of asset equipment management, in particular to a handheld RFID reading and writing device for asset equipment management. Background Art

[0002] Asset and equipment management is a crucial aspect of an enterprise or organization's operations management. It encompasses the entire lifecycle of various fixed assets and equipment, from purchase, acceptance, warehousing, issuance, transfer, repair, maintenance, and retirement. Effective asset and equipment management ensures the rational utilization of equipment, improves its operational efficiency, reduces operating costs, and ensures the smooth operation of an enterprise or organization's production and operations.

[0003] In traditional asset management systems, asset information is mainly managed by scanning QR codes. Workers use handheld scanning devices to scan the QR codes attached to the equipment to obtain relevant information about the equipment. This traditional QR code scanning method has many disadvantages. Since QR codes are usually printed or pasted directly on the surface of the equipment, they are easily erased or accidentally detached due to friction, collision, corrosion, etc. during long-term use of the equipment, making it difficult for the scanning equipment to recognize the QR codes. As a result, workers cannot accurately obtain equipment information. This brings great inconvenience to asset management and seriously affects work efficiency and management accuracy. Therefore, RFID technology plays an extremely critical role in the asset management system. Workers can conveniently use handheld RFID reader / writers to read the QR codes on the equipment and can quickly and accurately obtain equipment information. During daily equipment inspections, maintenance personnel use handheld readers to read QR code information. They can not only view the equipment's maintenance records, including past maintenance time, maintenance content, replaced parts and other details, but also obtain the equipment's real-time operating parameters to promptly detect potential equipment failures, providing strong data support for stable equipment operation and accurate maintenance, greatly improving the intelligence level and work efficiency of asset management.

[0028] The driving assembly includes a slider 12 slidably connected to the top wall of the handle 1, the outer wall of the slider 12 is fixedly connected to the pressing block 11, and the pressing block 11 is slidably connected to the handle 1, the outer wall of the slider 12 is rotatably connected to the symmetrically distributed driving plates 21, the outer wall of the slider 12 is fixedly connected to the guide rod B13, and the guide rod B13 is slidably connected to the fixing seat A15, the outer wall of the guide rod B13 is sleeved with a strong tension spring B14, and the strong tension spring B14 is fixedly connected to the fixing seat A15, and the end of the strong tension spring B14 away from the fixing seat A15 is fixedly connected to the slider 12. When the pressing block 11 is pressed, the slider 12 slides along the handle 1, the guide rod B13 slides in the fixing seat A15 and compresses the strong tension spring B14, and the sliding of the slider 12 drives the symmetrically distributed driving plates 21 to move;

[0029] The clamping assembly is arranged on the outer wall of the fixing seat B16.

[0030] like Figure 4-5As shown, as a preferred embodiment, on the basis of the above method, further, the clamping assembly includes a movable frame 17 symmetrically connected to the outer wall of the fixed seat B16, the end of the movable frame 17 away from the fixed seat B16 is fixedly connected to the clamping block 18, the outer wall of the clamping block 18 is fixedly connected to the limiting block 19, the outer wall of the movable frame 17 is rotatably connected to the linkage plate 20, and the linkage plate 20 is rotatably connected to the driving plate 21, and the outer wall of the movable frame 17 is also rotatably connected to the driven plate 22, and when the driving plate 21 moves, it drives the movable frame 17 to rotate around the outer wall of the fixed seat B16.
