Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of forklift card reader controller protection technology, and in particular to a vehicle-mounted card reader controller for vehicle management. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, forklifts are widely used in ports, railway stations, airports, freight yards, factory workshops, warehouses, distribution centers, and other places to load, unload, and handle palletized goods in ship holds, carriages, and containers. They are indispensable equipment in palletized and containerized transportation.

[0003] With the advancement of technology, card readers equipped with GPS locators, communication modules, identification modules, main control modules, transmission modules, alarm prompt modules, power failure shutdown devices, and control relays, when used in conjunction with IC cards, can directly control the forklift's engine to shut down and start up. Furthermore, when swiping the card, the information stored in the IC card can be transmitted to the management system through the identification module, communication module, and locator, thereby effectively managing the use of forklifts within the factory area and standardizing the order of forklift operation within the factory area.

[0004] In the market, the card readers installed on forklifts are all exposed. Since most of the goods transported by forklifts are heavy items, they are easily damaged after colliding with the card readers. To address this issue, we propose an on-board card reader controller for vehicle management. This controller can not only protect the card readers on the forklifts but also ensure their convenient use. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to solve the problems existing in the prior art by proposing a vehicle-mounted card reader controller for vehicle management.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A vehicle-mounted card reader controller for vehicle management includes: a control box, which is fixedly installed on the side wall of a forklift. The control box is a control box without a left port. A sealing plate is slidably installed on the left port of the control box. A pushing mechanism is installed inside the control box.

[0008] The pushing mechanism includes a rotating shaft rotatably mounted on one side inside the control box, a dial plate fixedly mounted on both sides of the rotating shaft, a limiting groove opened at the middle of the top of each of the two sets of dial plates, a third slide rail fixedly mounted on both sides inside the control box, a second slider slidably mounted on both sides of the two sets of the third slide rail, and a card reader fixedly mounted between the four sets of the second slider.

[0009] Preferably, the two sets of second sliders located at the right end are slidably connected to the two sets of limiting grooves respectively, and the bottom of the two sets of dial plates corresponds to the bottom of the sealing plate.

[0010] Preferably, a first slide rail is fixedly installed on both sides of the control box port, and a second slide rail is installed at the bottom of both sets of first slide rails, so that the sealing plate can slide along the direction of the first slide rail and the second slide rail.

[0011] Preferably, the first sliders of the two sets of first slides are slidably installed on both sides, and the two sets of first sliders on the top side are fixedly installed with a return spring. The other end of the two sets of return springs is fixedly installed with the side wall of the control box. The four sets of first sliders are fixedly installed with the side wall of the sealing plate. A handle is fixedly installed on one side of the sealing plate, which can make the sealing plate automatically reset.

[0012] Preferably, a spring frame is fixedly installed at the bottom of the card reader, and the other end of the spring frame is fixedly installed to the side wall of the control box, so that the card reader can be pulled to automatically reset.

[0013] Preferably, a damper is fixedly installed at one end of the side wall of the card reader, and a rubber pad is fixedly installed at the other end of the damper. The rubber pad corresponds to the side wall of the control box, which can prevent the card reader from colliding with the inner wall of the control box.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0015] This invention allows the sealing plate to slide along the first and second slides when pushed by the operator. This, in conjunction with the first slider installed on the side wall of the sealing plate, compresses the bottom of the push mechanism's internal paddles, causing the two paddles to rotate around the pivot. Since the limiting grooves at the top of the two paddles are slidably connected to the second sliders on both sides of the card reader, the card reader can be pushed to move horizontally along the direction of the third slide. This ensures that when the operator opens the sealing plate, the card reader inside the control box is automatically pushed out, making it easier for the operator to attach the card to the side wall of the card reader and control the forklift.

[0016] A spring frame is fixedly installed at the bottom of the card reader, and a damper is fixedly installed at one end of the side wall of the card reader. When the operator closes the sealing plate of the control box port, the sealing plate can no longer support the two sets of levers. The card reader inside the control box will automatically reset due to the tension of the spring frame. At the same time, the damper and rubber pad installed on the side wall of the card reader can effectively prevent the card reader from colliding with the inner wall of the control box, further protecting the card reader.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0023] Reference Figure 1-4 A vehicle-mounted card reader controller for vehicle management includes: a control box 1, which is fixedly installed on the side wall of a forklift 11. The control box 1 is a control box without a left port. A sealing plate 15 is slidably installed on the left port of the control box 1. A pushing mechanism is installed inside the control box 1.

[0024] The pushing mechanism includes a rotating shaft rotatably mounted on one side inside the control box 1, paddles 2 fixedly mounted on both sides of the rotating shaft, limiting grooves 21 formed at the top center of each of the two paddles 2, third slide rails 22 fixedly mounted on both sides inside the control box 1, second sliders 23 slidably mounted on both sides of the two sets of third slide rails 22, and a card reader 24 fixedly mounted between the four sets of second sliders 23. The two sets of second sliders 23 located at the right end are slidably connected to the two sets of limiting grooves 21 respectively. The bottom of each of the two sets of paddles 2 corresponds to the bottom of the sealing plate 15. When the operator pushes the sealing plate 15, it cooperates with the sealing plate 15 to push ... The first slider 14 installed on the side wall of the plate 15 causes the sealing plate 15 to slide along the first slide rail 12 and the second slide rail 13, and presses the bottom of the push plate 2 inside the mechanism, causing the two sets of push plates 2 to rotate around the pivot. Since the limiting grooves 21 at the top of the two sets of push plates 2 are slidably connected to the second sliders 23 on both sides of the card reader 24, the card reader 24 can be pushed to move horizontally along the direction of the third slide rail 22, ensuring that when the operator opens the sealing plate 15, the card reader 24 inside the control box 1 is automatically pushed out, making it convenient for the operator to attach the card to the side wall of the card reader 24 and operate the forklift 11.

[0025] Furthermore, a spring frame 3 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the card reader 24, and the other end of the spring frame 3 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the control box 1. This allows the card reader 24 to be pulled to automatically reset. A damper 31 is fixedly installed at one end of the side wall of the card reader 24, and a rubber pad 32 is fixedly installed at the other end of the damper 31. The rubber pad 32 corresponds to the side wall of the control box 1, which can prevent the card reader 24 from colliding with the inner wall of the control box 1. When the operator closes the sealing plate 15 at the port of the control box 1, the sealing plate 15 can no longer support the two sets of levers 2. The card reader 24 inside the control box 1 will automatically reset due to the pulling force of the spring frame 3. At the same time, the damper 31 and the rubber pad 32 installed on the side wall of the card reader 24 can effectively prevent the card reader 24 from colliding with the inner wall of the control box 1, further protecting the card reader 24.

[0026] Furthermore, a first slide rail 12 is fixedly installed on both sides of the control box 1 port, and a second slide rail 13 is installed at the bottom of both sets of first slide rails 12, which allows the sealing plate 15 to slide along the direction of the first slide rail 12 and the second slide rail 13. A first slider 14 is slidably installed on both sides of the two sets of first slide rails 12, and four sets of first sliders 14 are fixedly installed on the side wall of the sealing plate 15. A handle 16 is fixedly installed on one side of the sealing plate 15, which allows the sealing plate 15 to automatically reset. When the operator pushes the sealing plate 15, it cooperates with the first slider 14 installed on the side wall of the sealing plate 15 to make the sealing plate 15 slide along the first slide rail 12 and the second slide rail 13, which can push the bottom of the dial plate 2 inside the control box 1.

[0027] Furthermore, both sets of first sliders 14 on the top side are fixedly equipped with return springs 33, and the other ends of both sets of return springs 33 are fixedly installed on the side wall of the control box 1. When the operator attaches the card to the side wall of the card reader 24 and operates the forklift 11, the sealing plate 15 can be released directly. With the help of the return springs 33 installed on the two sets of first sliders 14 on the top, the movable sealing plate 15 can be automatically reset.

[0028] In use, the card reader 24 for controlling the forklift 11 is first installed in the control box 1. When the operator needs to use the card reader 24, the sealing plate 15 on the port of the control box 1 must be opened to swipe the card and operate the forklift 11. At the same time, when the operator pushes the sealing plate 15, it cooperates with the first slider 14 installed on the side wall of the sealing plate 15 to make the sealing plate 15 slide along the first slide rail 12 and the second slide rail 13, and squeeze the bottom of the push mechanism's internal lever plate 2, causing the two sets of lever plates 2 to rotate around the pivot. Since the limiting grooves 21 at the top of the two sets of lever plates 2 are slidably connected to the second sliders 23 on both sides of the card reader 24, the card reader 24 can be pushed horizontally along the direction of the third slide rail 22. The mechanism ensures that when the operator opens the sealing plate 15, the card reader 24 inside the control box 1 is automatically pushed out, making it easy for the operator to attach the card to the side wall of the card reader 24 and control the forklift 11. At the same time, a spring frame 3 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the card reader 24, and a damper 31 is fixedly installed at one end of the side wall of the card reader 24. When the operator closes the sealing plate 15 at the port of the control box 1, the sealing plate 15 can no longer support the two sets of levers 2, and the card reader 24 inside the control box 1 will automatically reset due to the tension of the spring frame 3. In addition, the damper 31 and the rubber pad 32 installed on the side wall of the card reader 24 can effectively prevent the card reader 24 from colliding with the inner wall of the control box 1, further protecting the card reader 24.

[0029] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model, but the protection scope of the present utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or changes made by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in the present utility model, based on the technical solution and the inventive concept of the present utility model, should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
