Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of query terminal technology, specifically to a vertical query terminal. Background Technology
[0002] Information kiosks are widely used and commonly installed in public places such as shopping malls, hospitals, and museums to provide information access. The height and screen orientation of these kiosks are typically customized based on factors such as the usage scenario and target audience. For example, in shopping malls, where the primary audience is healthy adults, the kiosks should be at a height suitable for adult operation, with the screen tilted upwards. In hospitals, where wheelchair users are present, the kiosks should be lowered and the screen tilted upright. In museums, where minors may visit, the kiosks should be lowered and the screen tilted upwards. Additionally, when the kiosks are installed in areas with strong sunlight, the screen orientation or tilt angle needs to be adjusted to avoid glare. However, most current information kiosks are fixed installations with no room for adjustment. A single model cannot address these issues, either neglecting the needs of specific groups or requiring customization to meet on-site requirements. Utility Model Content
