Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of shared power bank technology, and in particular to a storage unit component and a power bank rental device. Background Technology

[0002] Power bank rental devices are designed to provide users with convenient charging services. These devices are deployed in many public places, such as restaurants, hotels, airports, and train stations. Users can rent power banks from these devices by scanning a QR code and return them after use, providing great convenience and solving the problem of insufficient power for electrical appliances when people are out and about.

[0003] The storage compartment is a crucial component of power bank rental equipment. It typically features electromagnets or motor locks to control the locking and unlocking of the power banks inside. However, since these electromagnets or motor locks need to be assembled sequentially, and their number equals the number of power banks, this makes the overall assembly of the compartment cumbersome, increasing manufacturing costs. Furthermore, it also results in a larger overall size for the compartment, reducing the usable space of the corresponding power bank rental equipment. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, it is necessary to provide a container component and a power bank rental device that can solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this application provides the following technical solution:

[0006] A storage compartment component, used in power bank rental equipment, includes:

[0007] The main body of the storage unit includes two rows of storage compartments, each of which can hold one power bank.

[0008] The control board, installed on the main body of the compartment, is used to charge the power banks inside each compartment;

[0009] A detection circuit board, electrically connected to the slave control board, is used to read information from the power bank located inside the compartment and send it to the slave control board;

[0010] Multiple motor locks are sequentially and spaced apart between the two rows of compartments and connected to the main compartment body. Each motor lock can control the locking / unlocking of two power banks side by side in the two rows of compartments within their respective compartments.

[0011] In one embodiment, the motor lock includes:

[0012] Electric motor;

[0013] A turntable assembly is connected to the motor drive. The turntable assembly includes a first turntable and a second turntable. The second turntable is fitted onto the first turntable in a circumferentially limited manner and is slidably connected to the first turntable.

[0014] The locking assembly includes two locking elements, which are slidably arranged on opposite sides of the first turntable. Each locking element is movable between a locked position and an unlocked position, and each locking element can move from the locked position to the unlocked position under the action of the slidable second turntable.

[0015] The motor has a stopped state and a working state. In the stopped state, both locking elements are in the locked position. In the working state, one of the two locking elements is in the locked position and the other is in the unlocked position.

[0016] In one embodiment, the second turntable is provided with two push blocks, which are arranged on the upper and lower sides of the second turntable and correspond one-to-one with the two locking elements.

[0017] In the motor operating state, one of the push blocks can drive the second turntable to slide on the first turntable under the pushing of the corresponding locking element, so that the slid second turntable can be unlocked by the other push block pushing against the other locking element.

[0018] In one embodiment, in the insertion direction where the power bank is inserted into the corresponding compartment cavity, the detection circuit board can be assembled onto the compartment body in a plug-in manner.

[0019] In one embodiment, a slot is formed on the main body of the chamber, the slot is provided corresponding to the detection circuit board, and the detection circuit board can be inserted and engaged with the corresponding slot;

[0020] The bottom of the slot can abut against the detection circuit board to support the detection circuit board inserted into the slot.

[0021] In one embodiment, one end face of the detection circuit board away from the bottom of the tank abuts against the slave control board, thereby positioning the detection circuit board against the main body of the tank.

[0022] In one embodiment, a groove is formed on one of the chamber body and the detection circuit board, and a protrusion is formed on the other, the protrusion being able to engage with the groove to limit the detection circuit board to the chamber body.

[0023] In one embodiment, a stepped surface is formed on the housing, and the power bank can conform to the stepped surface to move relative to the housing;

[0024] The housing assembly also includes a shell with multiple inlets and outlets, each corresponding to a housing, and the power bank can extend out of or enter the corresponding housing from the corresponding inlet or outlet.

[0025] The stepped surface is set higher than or flush with the bottom surface of the inlet / outlet along the vertical direction along which the power bank is inserted into the cavity of the compartment.

[0026] In one embodiment, the control board is electrically connected to a detection pin, which is correspondingly disposed with the compartment. The detection pin can pass through the corresponding compartment and be electrically connected to the power bank located inside the compartment for reading information from the power bank.

[0027] This application also claims protection for a power bank rental device, including a main unit and at least one of the aforementioned housing components;

[0028] The host includes a power module and a main control board. The main control board and the slave control board in each of the compartment components are electrically connected to the power module in parallel. The power module is electrically connected to an external power supply and is used to convert the input voltage of the external power supply into the device voltage and provide the device voltage to the main control board and the slave control board.

[0029] Due to the application of the above solution, this application has the following advantages compared with the prior art:

[0030] The storage unit component and power bank rental equipment claimed in this application, through the aforementioned structural design, enable a modular design for the storage unit component. This facilitates the overall production and manufacturing of the storage unit component, thereby reducing costs. Furthermore, during operation, a single motor lock can unlock / lock two power banks placed side-by-side inside the storage unit, thus reducing the number of motor locks required. This reduces the overall manufacturing cost of the storage unit component and also allows for a reduction in its overall size, thereby increasing the usable space of the storage unit component.

Detailed Implementation

[0049] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features, and advantages of this application more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Many specific details are set forth in the following description to provide a thorough understanding of this application. However, this application can be implemented in many other ways different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar modifications without departing from the spirit of this application. Therefore, this application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0050] It should be noted that when a component is referred to as being "fixed to" or "disposed on" another component, it may be directly on the other component or there may be a central component. When a component is considered to be "connected to" another component, it may be directly connected to the other component or there may be a central component at the same time. The terms "vertical", "horizontal", "upper", "lower", "left", "right" and similar expressions used in the specification of this application are for illustrative purposes only and do not represent the only implementation method.

[0051] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. In the description of this application, "multiple" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0052] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, "above" or "below" the second feature can mean that the first feature is in direct contact with the second feature, or that the first feature and the second feature are in indirect contact through an intermediate medium. Furthermore, "above," "over," and "on top" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. "Below," "below," and "under" the second feature can mean that the first feature is directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

[0053] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used in the specification of this application have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which this application belongs. The terms used in the specification of this application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit this application. The term "and / or" used in the specification of this application includes any and all combinations of one or more of the relevant listed items.

[0054] like Figures 1 to 13As shown, the compartment assembly 1 provided in one embodiment of this application includes a compartment body 200, a slave control board 300, a detection circuit board 400, and multiple motor locks 100. The compartment body 200 includes two rows of compartments 210, each of which can accommodate one power bank 500. The slave control board 300 is installed on the compartment body 200 and is used to charge the power bank 500 in each compartment 210. The detection circuit board 400 is electrically connected to the slave control board 300 and is used to read the information of the power bank 500 located in the compartment 210 and send it to the slave control board 300. Multiple motor locks 100 are arranged sequentially and at intervals between the two rows of compartments 210 and are connected to the compartment body 200. Each motor lock 100 can control the locking / unlocking of two power banks 500 arranged side by side in the two rows of compartments 210 in the corresponding compartment 210. Here, the detection circuit board 400 can specifically be an NFC board. The NFC board communicates with the antenna inside the power bank 500 within a certain distance through a chip, and reads the information of the power bank 500.

[0055] It is understood that the compartment component 1 of this application can realize a modular design, which facilitates the overall production and manufacturing of the compartment component 1 and reduces costs. Furthermore, when the compartment component 1 is in operation, one motor lock 100 can unlock / lock two power banks 500 arranged side by side inside the compartment body 200. This reduces the number of motor locks 100 required in the compartment component 1, thereby reducing the overall manufacturing cost of the compartment component 1. On the other hand, the reduction in the number of motor locks 100 also reduces the overall volume of the compartment component 1, thereby increasing the effective usable space of the compartment component 1.

[0056] like Figure 3 , Figure 6 As shown, the motor lock 100 includes a housing 10. The motor lock 100 uses the housing 10 as the mounting base and uses a bolt 700 passing through the housing 10 to connect with the charging compartment body 200 via a threaded connection to achieve the assembly connection between the motor lock 100 and the charging compartment body 200.

[0057] like Figures 6 to 13As shown, in one embodiment, the motor lock 100 includes a motor 30, a turntable assembly 40, and a locking assembly. The turntable assembly 40 is drivenly connected to the motor 30. The turntable assembly 40 includes a first turntable 41 and a second turntable 42. The second turntable 42 is mounted on the first turntable 41 in a circumferentially limited manner and is slidably connected to the first turntable 41. The locking assembly includes two locking elements 21, which are slidably arranged on two opposite sides of the first turntable 41. Each locking element 21 can move between a locked position and an unlocked position, and each locking element 21 can move from the locked position to the unlocked position under the drive of the slidable second turntable 42. The motor 30 has a stopped state and a working state. In the stopped state, both locking elements 21 are in the locked position. In the working state, one of the two locking elements 21 is in the locked position and the other is in the unlocked position. It can be understood that the motor lock 100 controls the two locking elements 21 to unlock alternately by rotating the motor shaft 31 on the motor 30 in both directions. This allows the motor lock 100 to control the unlocking / locking of the two power banks 500 inside the main body 200 using only one motor 30. Here, each locking element 21 can move between the locked and unlocked positions. Specifically, both locking elements 21 can slide a preset distance along the centerline of the housing 10.

[0058] like Figure 6 As shown, the housing 10 includes a first housing 11 and a second housing 12. The first housing 11 and the second housing 12 are specifically connected by a threaded connection between the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 using self-tapping screws, bolts, or other connecting parts 50 passing through the first housing 11. Here, the locking element 21 includes a sliding plate 213. Each locking element 21 can slide against the first housing 11 and the second housing 12 via the sliding plate 213, thereby achieving a sliding assembly of each locking element 21 on and between it and the housing 10.

[0059] like Figure 8 , Figure 9 As shown, in one embodiment, the second turntable 42 is provided with a groove 422, and the outer peripheral surface of the first turntable 41 is provided with a rib 412. The rib 412 is provided corresponding to the groove 422, and the rib 412 can be inserted into the corresponding groove 422 to limit the second turntable 42 circumferentially on the first turntable 41. The second turntable 42 can slide relative to the first turntable 41 along the length direction of the rib 412.

[0060] like Figures 8 to 10As shown, in one embodiment, a first groove 411 is provided on the inner side of the first turntable 41, and a first rib 311 is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the motor shaft 31. The first rib 311 is correspondingly provided with the first groove 411, and the first rib 311 can be inserted and engaged with the corresponding first groove 411 to limit the first turntable 41 circumferentially on the motor 30, so that the first turntable 41 can rotate with the motor shaft 31 of the motor 30.

[0061] like Figures 9 to 13 As shown, in one embodiment, the second turntable 42 is provided with two push blocks 421. The two push blocks 421 are arranged on the upper and lower sides of the second turntable 42 and correspond one-to-one with the two locking elements 21. When the motor 30 is working, one of the push blocks 421 can drive the second turntable 42 to slide on the first turntable 41 under the pushing of the corresponding locking element 21, so that the slid second turntable 42 can be unlocked by the other push block 421 pushing against the other locking element 21.

[0062] As a preferred option, such as Figures 8 to 13 As shown, the push block 421 located below the second turntable 42 is designated as the first push block 4213, and the locking element 21 that can be unlocked under the drive of the first push block 4213 is designated as the second locking element 214. A push mating block 2141 is formed on the second locking element 214, and the second locking element 214 can abut against the first push block 4213 through the push mating block 2141. The push mating block 2141 is provided with a clearance groove 21411, which is used to avoid the first push block 4213 so that the first push block 4213 can rotate relative to the push mating block 2141 through the clearance groove 21411. It should be noted that, since the pushing block 2141 slides linearly within the housing 10, and the first pushing block 4213 rotates within the housing 10, the first pushing block 4213 will gradually misalign with the pushing block 2141 during the pushing process until they are completely disengaged. Here, the pushing block 421 located above the second turntable 42 is designated as the second pushing block 4214, and the locking element 21 that can be unlocked under the drive of the second pushing block 4214 is designated as the first locking element 215.

[0063] Furthermore, such as Figure 9 , Figure 12As shown, one end face of the second push block 4214 is configured as a second push slope 42141. When the second turntable 42 rotates clockwise, the second push block 4214 can abut against the first locking element 215 through the second push slope 42141. In this way, the second push block 4214 can drive the second turntable 42 to slide downward on the first turntable 41 under the pushing of the first locking element 215. Correspondingly, one end face of the first push block 4213 is configured as a first push plane 42132, so that the slidable second turntable 42 can abut against the second locking element 214 through the first push plane 42132, which is used to drive the second locking element 214 to unlock.

[0064] Furthermore, such as Figure 9 As shown, the other end face of the first push block 4213 is configured as a first push slope 42131. When the second turntable rotates counterclockwise, the first push block 4213 can abut against the second locking element 214 through the first push slope 42131. In this way, the first push block 4213 can drive the second turntable 42 to slide upward on the first turntable 41 under the push of the first push slope 42131. Correspondingly, the other end face of the second push block 4214 is configured as a second push plane 42142, so that the slid second turntable 42 can abut against the first locking element 215 through the second push plane 42142, which is used to drive the first locking element 215 to unlock.

[0065] like Figure 2 , Figure 7 As shown, in one embodiment, the locking assembly further includes a spring 22, which is pre-compressed and mounted between the two locking elements 21. Utilizing the elastic deformation of the spring 22, the two locking elements 21 can automatically extend from the housing 10 without being pushed by the second turntable 42, thus meeting the need to lock the power bank 500 using the locking elements 21. In other words, when the motor lock 100 is working, the motor 30 can control the second turntable 42 to rotate within the housing 10, and then use the push block 421 on the second turntable 42 and the spring 22 to push against the corresponding locking elements 21, thereby controlling the sliding of each locking element 21 back and forth on the housing 10, and achieving control over the unlocking / locking of the corresponding power bank 500 by each locking element 21.

[0066] like Figure 7As shown, in one embodiment, a first limiting portion 211 is formed on the first locking element 215, and a second limiting portion 212 is formed on the second locking element 214. The first limiting portion 211 and the second limiting portion 212 can be inserted and engaged with the spring 22 to limit the spring 22. This facilitates the assembly of the spring 22 between the two locking elements 21 and ensures the stability of the spring 22 when assembled between the two locking elements 21. Here, both the first limiting portion 211 and the second limiting portion 212 are configured as positioning protrusions that can be inserted into both ends of the spring 22.

[0067] The working principle of the motor lock 100 of this application is as follows: When the motor shaft 31 of the motor 30 rotates clockwise, the motor shaft 31 drives the second turntable 42 to rotate within the housing 10 via the first turntable 41. During this process, the second pushing slope 42141 of the second pushing block 4214 on the second turntable 42 first abuts against the third pushing slope 2151 on the first locking element 215. As the second turntable 42 continues to rotate, the second turntable 42 can slide downwards on the first turntable 41 using action and reaction forces, until the second pushing slope 42141 of the second pushing block 4214 disengages from the third pushing slope 2151 on the first locking element 215. Specifically, it can be described as follows: Figure 12 As shown, the second turntable 42 stops sliding. Afterwards, the second turntable 42 continues to rotate. The first pushing surface 42132 on the first pushing block 4213 can push against the pushing engagement block 2141 of the second locking element 214. Under the pushing of the pushing engagement block 2141, the second locking element 214 can compress the spring 22 and unlock. Specifically, as shown... Figure 13 As shown, simultaneously, the locking tongue 2143 on the second locking element 214 disengages from the card slot 501 of the left-side power bank 500 inside the compartment 210, specifically as follows: Figure 2As shown, the second locking element 214 can thus release the lock on the power bank 500. When the second turntable 42 continues to rotate, the first abutting surface 42132 will disengage from the abutting mating block 2141 and lose its pushing force on the second locking element 214, allowing the second locking element 214 to reset under the elastic push of the spring 22. When the motor shaft 31 of the motor 30 rotates in the opposite direction (counterclockwise), the motor shaft 31 of the motor 30 drives the second turntable 42 to rotate on the housing 10 via the first turntable 41. During this process, the first abutting inclined surface 42131 of the first abutting block 4213 on the second turntable 42 first abuts against the fourth abutting inclined surface 2142 on the second locking element 214. As the second turntable 42 continues to rotate, the action and reaction forces can be used to lock the second turntable 42 on the first turntable. The second turntable 42 slides upward until the first pushing slope 42131 of the first pushing block 4213 disengages from the fourth pushing slope 2142 of the second locking element 214. The second turntable 42 stops sliding. Then, the second turntable 42 continues to rotate. The second pushing plane 42142 on the second pushing block 4214 can push against the pushing part 2152 of the first locking element 215. Under the push of the pushing part 2152, the first locking element 215 can compress the spring 22 and unlock. In this way, the first locking element 215 can release the lock on the right power bank 500. When the second turntable 42 continues to rotate, the second pushing plane 42142 will disengage from the pushing part 2152 and lose the push against the first locking element 215, so that the first locking element 215 can be reset under the elastic push of the spring 22.

[0068] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, in the insertion direction of the power bank 500 into the corresponding receiving cavity 2101 of the compartment 210, the detection circuit board 400 can be assembled onto the compartment body 200 in a plug-in manner. That is, the compartment assembly 1 utilizes the plug-in engagement between the detection circuit board 400 and the compartment body 200 to achieve the assembly of the detection circuit board 400 onto the compartment body 200. This simplifies the assembly between the detection circuit board 400 and the compartment body 200, saves labor, and reduces costs.

[0069] like Figure 1 , Figure 3As shown, in one embodiment, a slot 220 is formed on the main body 200, corresponding to the detection circuit board 400, and the detection circuit board 400 can be inserted into the corresponding slot 220. The bottom 221 of the slot 220 abuts against the detection circuit board 400, supporting the detection circuit board 400 inserted into the slot 220. In other words, the detection circuit board 400 is assembled onto the main body 200 via a plug-in connection. During this process, the abutment between the bottom 221 of the slot 220 and the detection circuit board 400 limits the insertion depth of the detection circuit board 400 and limits its assembly on the main body 200. This ensures the accuracy of the detection circuit board 400's position when assembled on the main body 200, thereby ensuring that the detection circuit board 400 can detect the corresponding power bank 500 during operation. Here, multiple slots 220 are configured, arranged at intervals on the main body 200 along the insertion direction of the power bank 500 into the corresponding receiving cavity 2101 of the compartment 210. It should be noted that this application configures eight slots 220, correspondingly eight detection circuit boards 400 and six power banks 500, thus ensuring communication between the detection circuit boards 400 and the power banks 500.

[0070] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the end face of the detection circuit board 400 away from the bottom of the slot 221 abuts against the slave control board 300, thus limiting the detection circuit board 400 to the bin body 200. That is, the slave control board 300 is used to limit the detection circuit board 400 assembled on the bin body 200, which eliminates the need for the structure required for limiting the detection circuit board 400 on the bin body 200, thereby simplifying the structure.

[0071] It should be noted that the detection circuit board 400 of this application can be installed into the slot 220 of the main body 200 from top to bottom. For this purpose, the opening 222 of the slot 220 can be configured as a horn shape.

[0072] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, an extension frame 2102 is provided on the compartment 210. The extension frame 2102 is located on the outside of the compartment 210, and the extension frame 2102 and the compartment 210 can enclose and form a slot 220. This arrangement allows the compartment 210 to be designed and improved based on the original structure, which facilitates the design and development of the compartment 210.

[0073] like Figure 1 , Figure 3As shown, in one embodiment, the extension frame 2102 includes a baffle 2103, which is arranged parallel to the housing 210. The baffle 2103 at least partially covers the detection circuit board 400 inserted into the slot 220, thus limiting the detection circuit board 400 within the slot 220. This arrangement allows the extension frame 2102 to use the elongated baffle 2103, which is shorter than the extension frame 2102, to limit the detection circuit board 400. This reduces material usage during baffle 2103 molding, thus lowering costs. Furthermore, it reduces the deformation of the baffle 2103 during the molding process of the extension frame 2102, preventing breakage due to excessive length.

[0074] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, at least two baffles 230 are formed on the main body 200, and the two baffles 230 are arranged at intervals and form slots 220.

[0075] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, a groove (not shown) is formed on one of the chamber body 200 and the detection circuit board 400, and a protrusion 240 is formed on the other. The protrusion 240 can engage with the groove to limit the detection circuit board 400 onto the chamber body 200. That is, by utilizing the engagement between the protrusion 240 and the groove, the detection circuit board 400 can be better positioned and fixed when assembled onto the chamber body 200, preventing displacement after assembly and improving the stability of the detection circuit board 400 when assembled onto the chamber body 200. Here, a through hole 401 is formed on the detection circuit board 400, and the protrusion 240 is formed on the chamber body 200. The protrusion 240 can engage with the groove to limit the detection circuit board 400 onto the chamber body 200. Of course, in other embodiments, a groove (not shown) can also be formed on the chamber body 200, and a protrusion (not shown) can also be formed on the detection circuit board 400.

[0076] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the outer peripheral surface of the protrusion 240 is arc-shaped, which facilitates the inspection of the assembly of the circuit board 400 on the chamber body 200.

[0077] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 4As shown, in one embodiment, a stepped surface 2104 is formed on the housing 210, and the power bank 500 can move relative to the housing 210 by conforming to the stepped surface 2104. The housing assembly 1 also includes a housing 600, which has multiple inlets / outlets 610, each corresponding to one of the housings 210. The power bank 500 can extend from or enter the corresponding housing 210 through the corresponding inlet / outlet 610. Along the vertical direction of the power bank 500 being inserted into the housing cavity 2101 of the housing 210, the stepped surface 2104 is higher than or flush with the bottom surface 611 of the inlet / outlet 610. This arrangement prevents interference between the protruding wires of the power bank 500 and the housing 600 when the power bank 500 extends from the housing 210, thus avoiding the power bank 500 extending too short a distance or getting stuck.

[0078] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in one embodiment, a detection pin 301 is electrically connected to the control board 300. The detection pin 301 is correspondingly configured with the compartment 210, and can pass through the corresponding compartment 210 to electrically connect with the power bank 500 located inside the compartment 210, for reading the information of the power bank 500. That is, the control board 300 can read the information of the power bank 500 through the detection pin 301. At the same time, the detection circuit board 400 on the compartment 200 can also read the information of the power bank 500, thus providing double protection. It should be noted that if the electrical connection between the detection pin 301 on the control board 300 and the power bank 500 inside the compartment 210 fails, the detection circuit board 400 on the compartment 200 can still read the information of the power bank 500 and send it to the control board 300. This ensures that the compartment component 1 can correctly determine whether there is a power bank 500 in the corresponding compartment 210, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the power bank rental device using this compartment component 1.

[0079] When the storage unit 1 of this application is in operation, when a user needs to rent a power bank 500, they can scan the QR code (not shown in the figure) on the power bank rental device and complete the corresponding operation according to the instructions. Then, the control board 300 controls the motor lock 100 corresponding to the storage unit 210 to work. The motor lock 100 releases the lock on the power bank 500 on the corresponding storage unit 210, and the user can take out the power bank 500.

[0080] like Figures 14 to 16As shown, this application also claims protection for a power bank rental device 1000, including a host 2 and at least one set of compartment components 1. The host 2 includes a power module 201 and a main control board 202. The main control board 202 and the slave control board 300 in each compartment component 1 are electrically connected to the power module 201 in parallel. The power module 201 is electrically connected to an external power source and is used to convert the input voltage of the external power source into the device voltage and provide the device voltage to the main control board 202 and the slave control board 300. In other words, the power bank rental device 1000 of this embodiment has only one power module 201 to enable the host 2 and multiple compartment components 1 to operate under the device voltage. This avoids configuring a power module 201 for voltage conversion in each compartment component 1, thereby reducing costs.

[0081] like Figures 14 to 16 As shown, in one embodiment, each compartment assembly 1 includes a power cord (not shown). Each slave control board 300 within each compartment assembly 1 can be electrically connected to the input terminal on the main control board 202, which is used for electrical connection with the power module 201, via its respective power cord. Here, each power cord can be electrically connected to the main control board 202 and the corresponding slave control board 300 using a quick-connect connector, and the main control board 202 can also be electrically connected to the power module 201 using a quick-connect connector.

[0082] like Figures 14 to 16 As shown, in one embodiment, the power line for the electrical connection between the slave control board 300 and the main control board 202 in each compartment assembly 1 includes a power transmission line and a signal transmission line. The main control board 202 can supply power to the slave control board 300 using the power transmission line, and the signal transmission line is used for signal transmission between the slave control board 300 and the main control board 202, so as to achieve the purpose of the main control board 202 controlling the slave control board 300 and controlling the operation of the compartment assembly 1. It should be noted that the working principle of how the main control board 202 controls the operation of the slave control board 300 through the signal transmission line can adopt existing conventional methods, which will not be elaborated here.

[0083] For example, when there is one hopper assembly 1, the main control board 202 in the host 2 can supply power to the slave control board 300 in the hopper assembly 1 and control the operation of the slave control board 300; when there are two, three or more hopper assemblies 1, the main control board 202 in the host 2 can supply power to the slave control board 300 in the hopper assembly 1 respectively and control the operation of the slave control board 300.

[0084] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.

[0085] The above-described embodiments merely represent several implementation methods of the present application. While the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the scope of the patent application. It should be noted that a person of ordinary skill in the art may make various modifications and improvements without departing from the spirit of the present application, all of which fall within the scope of protection of the present application. Therefore, the scope of patent protection for the present application shall be determined by the appended claims.
