[0020] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this utility model described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.
[0021] Example 1
[0022] This embodiment provides a parcel collection locker, see [link / reference] Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of the express delivery locker provided in an embodiment of the present utility model.
[0023] Specifically, the parcel locker includes a locker body 1 and storage components installed outside the locker body 1 for storing parcels. This embodiment uses the locker body 1 and storage components together, which effectively reduces the floor space required compared to using only lockers.
[0024] In this embodiment, the cabinet 1 is equipped with a control board 3, a trigger, and a connector. The control board 3 is equipped with a wireless communication module. The trigger is configured to sense the touch of the connector. The trigger is electrically connected to the control board 3. When the trigger is touched by the connector, it will send information to the user terminal through the wireless communication module.
[0025] The opening side of the storage unit cooperates with the connector. Specifically, in this embodiment, when the storage unit on the connector is touched due to placing or taking away a package, the connecting rod will trigger the trigger, and then send a prompt message to the user terminal through the wireless communication module. This realizes the information prompt of package storage and improves the overall anti-theft performance of the package collection cabinet.
[0026] The parcel locker provided in this embodiment allows for parcel delivery and pickup at the doorstep, improving the flexibility and convenience of parcel delivery. In addition, the parcel locker eliminates the need for face-to-face contact, and the trigger-activated reminder effectively enhances security.
[0027] Example 2
[0028] This embodiment, based on the technical solution provided in Embodiment 1, further explains the structure of the connector:
[0029] In this embodiment, the connector can be a shelf or a hook; preferably, see [reference needed]. Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the hook includes a vertical rod 8, a hook body 7, and an anti-slip buckle 9; the upper end of the vertical rod 8 is connected to the cabinet body 1, the hook body 7 is connected to the lower end of the vertical rod 8, the first end of the anti-slip buckle 9 is connected to the vertical rod 8, and the second end of the anti-slip buckle 9 extends to the opening above the hook body 7, which is used to prevent people from removing the stored items from the hook by moving the stored items upwards, thereby further improving the anti-theft performance of the express delivery locker.
[0030] Example 3
[0031] This embodiment further explains the structure of the trigger element based on the technical solution provided in Embodiment 2:
[0032] In this embodiment, the trigger can be either a distance sensor or a vibration sensor 13; preferably, the trigger in this embodiment is a vibration sensor 13. The sensitive element of the vibration sensor 13 is in contact with the vertical rod 8, so that when the storage item is removed from the hook or hooked onto the hook, the vibration sensor 13 accurately detects the touch of the hook. It should be noted that the distance sensor determines whether the hook is touched by measuring the distance between itself and the vertical rod 8, which will not be described in detail here.
[0033] Example 4
[0034] This embodiment, based on the technical solution provided in Embodiment 3, further explains the structure of the storage component:
[0035] In this embodiment, the storage component can be a storage box or a storage bag 6; preferably, the storage component in this embodiment is a storage bag 6, which occupies less space than a storage box; specifically, in this embodiment, a through groove is provided at the bottom of the cabinet 1, and the open side of the storage bag 6 passes through the through groove and is hooked on the hook body 7; in this embodiment, the through groove extends through the front of the cabinet 1, and its size is adapted to the size of the storage bag 6 after the open side is closed, so as to facilitate the removal of the storage bag 6 from the front of the cabinet 1 and prevent the storage bag 6 from being removed from the hook by moving it upwards.
[0036] Example 5
[0037] This embodiment is based on the technical solution provided in any one of Embodiments 1 to 4, and further improves the solution:
[0038] In this embodiment, a camera 10 is added to the express delivery locker. The camera 10 is electrically connected to the control board 3. When the trigger is activated, the control board 3 turns on the camera 10 to take pictures. The camera 10 can be set inside or outside the locker 1. There is no specific limitation here. In this embodiment, the anti-theft performance can be further enhanced by adding the camera 10.
[0039] Example 6
[0040] This embodiment further explains the structure of the express delivery locker based on the technical solution provided in Embodiment 5:
[0041] In this embodiment, the cabinet body 1 can be fixed to the doorway wall using expansion screws and nail-free adhesive; the express delivery locker also includes a cabinet door 2, which is opened by scanning a QR code and / or mechanically. When the cabinet door 2 is opened, the camera 10 will be automatically triggered to take a picture; preferably, the configuration for opening by scanning a QR code is as follows: the cabinet door 2 is connected to the front of the cabinet body 1 by an electromagnetic induction lock 5, the electromagnetic induction lock 5 is electrically connected to the control board 3, and the front of the cabinet door 2 is provided with a QR code scanning area; when the camera 10 is installed inside the cabinet body 1, the cabinet door 2 has a through hole 12 corresponding to the shooting direction of the camera 10.
[0042] Furthermore, the internal equipment of the express delivery locker can be powered by a storage battery 4 or by wiring. Specifically, a storage battery 4 is installed inside the locker body 1, and the storage battery 4 is electrically connected to the control board 3; a charging port 11 is also provided on the outside of the locker body 1, and the charging port 11 is electrically connected to the storage battery 4 through a wire. Furthermore, a partition is installed inside the locker body 1, and the camera 10, the control board 3, and the storage battery 4 are all located above the partition, while the trigger and connector are located below the partition.
[0043] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
