[0012] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial technical effects:

[0013] (1) The canteen uses a desktop card reader. By bending the machine body, the sliders at both ends slide on slide groove one and slide groove two respectively. Then, by pushing the insert block down, the tilt angle of the machine body can be adjusted so that users can easily see the screen content while standing naturally. This greatly improves the user experience for people of different heights and can also effectively avoid the impact of light reflection on screen visibility.

[0014] (2) The canteen uses a tabletop card reader. When the tilt angle of the machine is adjusted, the spring will push the positioning block to insert into the corresponding slot, and the machine will be temporarily positioned. This is suitable for situations where there is a large flow of people getting food at the canteen window, making the adjustment convenient and quick.

[0015] (3) The canteen uses a tabletop card reader, which can be protected by a protective cover. Flipping the protective cover upwards will cause the first and second connecting rods to rotate and form a straight line, which can lift the protective cover upwards. This allows the protective cover to cover the top of the machine without affecting its use, preventing oil droplets from splashing onto the machine when lunch boxes are passed through the canteen window, thus avoiding a difficult-to-clean situation.

[0021] Example 1

[0022] like Figure 1-2 As shown, this utility model proposes a tabletop card reader for canteens, comprising a base 1, a body 3, an angle adjustment component 4, and a protective component 5. A vertical plate 2 is mounted on the base 1. The body 3 is positioned on both sides of the vertical plate 2. The angle adjustment component 4 includes a first slide groove 41, a second slide groove 42, a slot 43, and a slider 44. The slider 44 slides along the first slide groove 41 and the second slide groove 42, and a stop block 46 is inserted into the corresponding slot 43 to limit the slider 44, thereby adjusting the tilt angle of the body 3. The protective component 5 provides protection for the body 3 through a protective cover 51.

[0023] To further explain, the vertical plate 2 has a sliding groove 41 on each side; the base 1 has a sliding groove 42 at its upper end; the bottom of the sliding groove 42 has multiple slots 43 evenly distributed; and sliders 44 are rotatably connected to both ends of the body 3; one slider 44 is slidably connected to the sliding groove 41, and the other slider 44 is slidably connected to the sliding groove 42. This allows users of different heights to adjust the tilt angle of the body 3, enabling them to easily see the screen content while standing naturally, greatly improving the user experience for people of different heights. In addition, by adjusting the tilt angle of the body 3, the impact of light reflection on screen visibility can be effectively avoided.

[0024] Further explanation: A through groove 45 is provided on the slider 44 slidably connected to the second slide groove 42; an insert 46 is slidably connected within the through groove 45; the lower end of the insert 46 engages with the slot 43; the groove wall of the through groove 45 is connected from top to bottom to a first limiting groove 47 and a second limiting groove 48; the side wall of the insert 46 is provided with a limiting block 49 that can engage with the first limiting groove 47 and the second limiting groove 48 respectively; the limiting block 49 is made of elastic material, specifically rubber. This allows the sliding position of the slider 44 to be fixed, thereby fixing the tilt angle of the body 3 and preventing the body 3 from sliding further after the angle adjustment is completed, thus deviating from the originally set angle.

[0025] To further explain, the lower end of the slider 44, which is slidably connected to the slide groove 42, is provided with a groove 410; a spring 411 is connected to the top of the groove 410; a positioning block 412, which engages with the slot 43, is connected to the lower end of the spring 411; the bottom end of the positioning block 412 is arc-shaped. This can temporarily limit the movement of the machine body 3, which is suitable for situations where there is a high flow of people getting food at the canteen window, and the adjustment is convenient and quick.

[0026] Example 2

[0027] like Figure 3-4 As shown, this utility model proposes a tabletop card reader for canteens. Compared to Embodiment 1, this embodiment further includes: a protective cover 51 rotatably connected to the upper end of the machine body 3, and a card slot 52 at the lower end; a limiting strip 53 is provided on the wall of the card slot 52; one end of the protective cover 51 is inserted into the card slot 52, and a card strip 54 is provided on it to engage with the limiting strip 53; the card strip 54 is made of elastic material, specifically rubber. When not in use, the screen and buttons on the machine body 3 can be covered to protect the machine body 3 and reduce the adhesion of canteen fumes.

[0028] To further explain, a connecting rod 55 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the machine body 3; the other end of the connecting rod 55 is rotatably connected to a connecting rod 56; the other end of the connecting rod 56 is rotatably connected to the protective cover 51. When the connecting rods 55 and 56 are aligned in a straight line, the protective cover 51 can be lifted upwards, so that the protective cover 51 can cover the top of the machine body 3 without affecting its use, thus preventing oil droplets from splashing onto the machine body 3 when lunch boxes are passed through the cafeteria window, making it difficult to clean.

[0029] The working principle of this utility model is as follows: When it is necessary to adjust the tilt angle of the machine body 3, the machine body 3 is turned so that the sliders 44 at both ends of the machine body 3 slide on the first slide groove 41 and the second slide groove 42 respectively. After the angle is adjusted, the spring 411 will push the positioning block 412 to insert into the corresponding slot 43, temporarily positioning the machine body 3. When it is necessary to fix the machine body 3, the insert block 46 is pushed down so that the insert block 46 is inserted into the corresponding slot 43, and at the same time, the limiting block 49 will be pushed from the first limiting groove 47 into the second limiting groove 48.

[0030] When the machine body 3 is not in use, flip the protective cover 51 downwards so that one end of the protective cover 51 is inserted into the snap-fit ​​groove 52, thereby engaging the limiting strip 53 and the snap-fit ​​strip 54 to limit the protective cover 51. This can cover the screen and buttons on the machine body 3, providing protection for the machine body 3. When the machine body 3 needs to be used, flip the protective cover 51 upwards, thereby rotating the connecting rod 1 55 and the connecting rod 2 56. When the connecting rod 1 55 and the connecting rod 2 56 rotate to form a straight line, the protective cover 51 can be lifted upwards, so that the protective cover 51 covers the top of the machine body 3 without affecting its use, preventing oil droplets from splashing onto the machine body 3 when passing lunch boxes at the cafeteria window, which would be difficult to clean.

[0031] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. Various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
