[0002] Barcodes are widely used in people's daily production and life. As the demand for barcodes increases day by day, the application scenarios of barcodes are becoming more and more diversified. Various barcode reading devices of different sizes and functions have emerged in the market. Because the realization of barcode reading module functions involves multiple structural functional modules such as optics, image processing, and signal transmission, its internal structure is complex and the number of various components is huge.

[0003] For barcode reading modules that can be embedded in other large devices, smaller size and superior reading capabilities are undoubtedly the most important highlights. However, the compact structure of small modules results in relatively weak heat dissipation. Utility Model Content

It uses flexible flat cables to connect a main control board, conversion board, and acquisition board with different functions. The main control board, conversion board, and acquisition board are then stacked by folding. Simultaneously, mounting posts of different heights are used to secure the overall structure, compressing the module's volume and making the overall design more compact. Furthermore, since the main control board and acquisition board are not on the same board surface, localized heat accumulation is reduced, and the certain stacking gaps also improve overall heat dissipation.

The main control board 21 includes a control module, a storage module, and a first interface module. The conversion board 22 includes a power module and a second interface module. A second flexible flat cable 5 connects the second interface module of the conversion board 22 and the acquisition board 3. The flexible flat cable connects the rigid boards with different functions, and the overall structure is secured by folding and mounting posts of different heights, which compresses the module volume and makes the overall module design more compact. At the same time, since the main control board 21 and the acquisition board 3 are not on the same board surface, the local heat accumulation is reduced.

[0025] As a further preferred embodiment, the connection between the main control board 21 and the conversion board 22 is reinforced with reinforcing adhesive, and the connection between the conversion board 22 and the acquisition board 3 is also reinforced with reinforcing adhesive to avoid repeated bending during installation or maintenance that could cause the circuit to break.

The overlapping gaps improve the overall heat dissipation capacity and ensure a certain heat dissipation effect.

[0028] Working principle of this utility model:

[0029] During assembly, the acquisition board 3 is first embedded into the storage slot 13 on the back of the base 1. Then, the conversion board 22 is locked onto the short mounting post 16 of the base 1 with screws. Finally, the main control board 21 is locked onto the long mounting post 15 at the opposite corner of the base 1 with screws.
