The top of the lockable ticket box 200 has a closable opening, and a card-scraping wheel mechanism 300 is provided above the lockable ticket box 200. When a ticket needs to be issued, the ticket to be issued is located slightly above the lockable ticket box 200, with the top opening of the lockable ticket box 200 open. The card-scraping wheel mechanism 300 scrapes the ticket, pushing the ticket to be issued in the lockable ticket box 200 to the card issuing conveyor channel 400. The end of the card issuing conveyor channel 400 away from the card-scraping wheel mechanism 300 is provided with a ticket outlet 420 for issuing tickets. The lockable ticket box 200 has an ID reading / writing module 210 for reading the correct ticket's travel area. The lockable ticket box 200 is equipped with a lock, requiring an authorized person's key to open and retrieve the ticket.

[0046] Specifically, a ticket lifting mechanism 500 is provided on the back of the lockable ticket box 200, which reciprocates along the height direction of the lockable ticket box 200. The fork mechanism 510 of the ticket lifting mechanism 500 extends into the interior of the lockable ticket box 200. As the ticket lifting mechanism 500 moves upward, the fork mechanism 510 drives the ticket to be dispensed upward to a position slightly above the lockable ticket box 200, thus enabling the ticket to be dispensed from the lockable ticket box 200. A main control board 600, electrically connected to the ticket lifting mechanism 500, is installed on the mounting wall panel 100. The main control board 600 is a touchscreen. The desired ticket is selected through the main control board 600. After selection, the main control board 600 transmits a signal to the ticket lifting mechanism 500, which then delivers the ticket to be dispensed to the opening of the lockable ticket box 200. The main control board 600 controls the operation of the entire module. Sensors at various locations, detailed below, are used for signal detection and provide signal input to the main control board 600.

[0047] The ticket lifting mechanism 500 includes a lifting guide rail mechanism 520 mounted on the back of the mounting wall panel 100 and a lifting drive motor 530 that drives its movement. When the lifting drive motor 530 is activated, the shift fork mechanism 510 moves upward along the guide rail of the lifting guide rail mechanism 520, moving the ticket to be issued and realizing the transportation of the ticket to be issued within the lockable ticket box 200. The lifting drive motor 530 provides driving power for the lifting of the ticket, the lifting guide rail mechanism 520 maintains a stable vertical movement trajectory, and the shift fork mechanism 510 is linked internally with the lockable ticket box 200 to move the ticket up and down. The lifting device uses a high-efficiency motor and a precision transmission device to ensure the stability and reliability of the ticket issuance.

[0048] The card-scraping wheel mechanism 300 includes a card-scraping wheel lifting assembly 310 fixedly connected to the mounting wall panel 100. A card-scraping wheel mounting bracket 320 for mounting the card-scraping wheel 330 is fixedly connected to the top of the lifting assembly 310. The rotating shaft of the card-scraping wheel 330 is connected to the output shaft of the card-scraping motor 340. It also includes a cover plate 350 with a cavity, housing the card-scraping wheel mounting bracket 320 and the card-scraping wheel 330 connected thereto. To improve the accuracy of the card-scraping wheel 330 in pushing tickets, a slotted through-beam sensor 700 is provided to detect whether the card-scraping wheel assembly is in position. Upon detection, the sensor transmits a signal to the card-scraping motor 340 of the card-scraping wheel mechanism, driving the card-scraping wheel 330 to rotate and push the card. The card-scraping wheel mechanism 300 also includes a ticket sensor 360 to detect whether there is a ticket at the opening of the lockable ticket box 200. If a ticket is present, the card-scraping motor 340 starts, driving the card-scraping wheel 330 to rotate and push the card.

[0049] The card issuing and conveying channel 400 includes a housing 410, which is elongated and has its end near the card-scraping wheel 330 higher than its end away from the card-scraping wheel 330. A synchronous pulley is arranged inside the housing 410 along its length to transport tickets to the ticket dispensing slot. The synchronous pulley is driven by the transmission channel motor 420. On the side of the card issuing and conveying channel 400 near the ticket dispensing slot, there is a waste ticket box 800, a ticket reading antenna 430, and a ticket reading sensor 440 electrically connected to the ticket reading antenna. The ticket reading sensor 440 detects whether a ticket needs to be read. If so, it transmits a signal to the ticket reading antenna 430 to read the ticket's position and whether it is a valid ticket. If the data is normal, the ticket is valid and dispensed. If the data is abnormal, the ticket is invalid and returned to the waste ticket box 800, improving the normal utilization rate of the dispensed tickets and reducing the inconvenience of ticket exchange for passengers. A ticket dispensing detection photoelectric tube 450 is also installed at the ticket dispensing slot to detect whether the ticket is dispensed successfully. A waste ticket detection sensor 830 is installed at the entrance of the waste ticket box 800 to detect whether waste tickets have entered the waste ticket box 800 and to control the opening and closing of the waste ticket box entrance. The waste ticket box 800 is equipped with a waste ticket box position sensor 810 to detect whether the waste ticket box is stable and fixed, and a waste ticket full sensor 820 to detect whether the waste ticket box is full of waste tickets, so as to facilitate timely cleaning of the waste ticket box 800.

[0050] A card-scraping sensor 460 is installed at the end of the housing 410 near the card-scraping wheel 330. This sensor detects whether a ticket has entered the card-issuing conveyor channel 400 and transmits the signal to the transmission channel motor 470. When a ticket enters the card-issuing conveyor channel 400, the transmission channel motor 470 starts, driving the synchronous belt pulley to achieve ticket delivery. The transmission channel motor 470 provides power to the ticket delivery channel, ensuring its normal operation.

[0051] In this embodiment, a ticket box locking bracket 900 is fixedly connected to the wall panel 100, and the locked ticket box 200 is locked to the top surface of the ticket box locking bracket 900. A ticket box positioning switch 910 is provided on the ticket box locking bracket 900 to detect whether the fixed position of the locked ticket box 200 is accurate, and to lock the locked ticket box 200 to the ticket box locking bracket 900 through the locking mechanism 920, so as to prevent the locked ticket box 200 from falling off during use and improve safety performance.

[0052] In this embodiment, two lockable ticket boxes 200 at different heights are provided. The upper surface of the ticket box locking bracket 900 is stepped, with one lockable ticket box 200 fixed to the higher step and the lower step respectively. Each lockable ticket box 200 is equipped with a corresponding card-scraping wheel mechanism 300. The openings of the two lockable ticket boxes 200 correspond to a card-issuing and conveying channel housing 410. Accordingly, two card channels are provided inside the housing 410: an inclined channel and a horizontal channel connected to it. One end of the inclined channel is connected to the upper side of the... The lockable ticket box 200 receives the tickets issued by it, and its other end is inclined downwards and connected to the horizontal channel. The tickets issued by the lockable ticket box 200 are transported to the horizontal channel through the inclined channel, and then output to the ticket outlet through the horizontal channel. One end of the horizontal channel corresponds to the lockable ticket box 200 located in the lower section, and the other end corresponds to the ticket outlet. The tickets issued by the two lockable ticket boxes 200 fall into the corresponding ticket channels, realizing that one card issuing and conveying channel can simultaneously transport two tickets to the ticket outlet, thereby improving the efficiency of ticket issuance.

[0053] Specifically, the two tickets issued from the two locked ticket boxes 200 initially have different issuance positions, one above and one below. The ticket in the upper position is transported along a pre-set diagonally downward path by rollers and guide blocks in the transmission channel. After reaching the intersection with the lower ticket issuance position, the channel rollers transport it horizontally until the ticket is issued. The lower ticket is directly transported horizontally forward along the channel rollers until the ticket is issued. The issuance order of both tickets is controlled by the program and they are not delivered simultaneously, requiring more precise timing control by the program.

[0054] This utility model's lockable ticket box card issuing module solves many problems existing in traditional ticket box card issuing. It not only improves the security and ease of operation of ticket issuance, but also provides effective technical support for ticket management and has broad application prospects.
