[0054] First, it should be noted that the X, Y, and Z directions mentioned in the embodiments of this application are referred to in the appendix. Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 7 and Figure 8 The marked directions. The axes in the X, Y, and Z directions intersect each other.

[0055] like Figures 1-8As shown, according to a first aspect of the embodiments of this application, a barcode scanner and printer all-in-one machine is provided, including a mounting bracket 1, a printing mechanism 5, a barcode scanning module, and a voice-emitting module; the mounting bracket 1 includes a printing area A, a barcode scanning area B, and a voice-announcing area C, the barcode scanning area B being adjacent to the printing area A and located on the same side of the mounting bracket 1, and the barcode scanning area B being adjacent to the voice-announcing area C and located on different sides of the mounting bracket 1; the printing area A is provided with a receiving groove 11 and a mounting surface 12, the receiving groove 11 having an upward opening, the receiving groove 11 being used to hold printing paper, the mounting surface 12 being... The mounting surface 12 and the receiving groove 11 are arranged adjacent to each other in the Y direction. The mounting surface 12 is used to install the printing mechanism 5. The scanning area B is provided with a mounting hole 14, which is arranged adjacent to the receiving groove 11 in the X direction. The mounting hole 14 is used to install the scanning module. The voice broadcasting area C is provided with a first mounting groove 13, which is arranged adjacent to the receiving groove 11 and is located on the side of the receiving groove 11 away from the mounting hole 14 in the X direction. The first mounting groove 13 is separated by a partition 16 and is used to install a sound module.

[0056] The barcode scanner and printer of this application can perform both barcode scanning and printing functions, integrating the two functions together to provide convenience for users.

[0057] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the barcode scanner and printer all-in-one machine includes a mounting bracket 1, a printing mechanism 5, a barcode scanning module, and a sound module. The mounting bracket 1 provides mounting and support for the printing mechanism 5, the barcode scanning module, and the sound module. The printing mechanism 5 is used to perform the printing function, specifically for printing receipts. The barcode scanning module is used to scan QR codes or barcodes. The sound module is used to announce the progress of scanning or printing; for example, the sound module will provide an audio prompt after scanning is complete. When an order is received, the sound module will prompt the printing mechanism 5 to begin printing. The printing mechanism 5 and the sound module can work simultaneously, or the sound module can work first, followed by the printing mechanism 5.

[0058] To further explain, the mounting bracket 1 includes a printing area A, a scanning area B, and a voice broadcast area C; the printing area A and the scanning area B are arranged adjacent to each other, and the scanning area B and the printing area A are located on the same side of the mounting bracket 1; the scanning area B and the voice broadcast area C are arranged adjacent to each other, and the scanning area B and the voice broadcast area C are located on different sides of the mounting bracket 1.

[0059] Specifically, the printing area A is provided with a receiving slot 11 and a mounting surface 12. The inside of the receiving slot 11 is used to hold printing paper, and the opening of the receiving slot 11 faces upward in the Z direction, so that it is easy to place the printing paper inside the receiving slot 11. The receiving slot 11 and the mounting surface 12 are arranged adjacent to each other in the Y direction. The printing mechanism 5 is set on the mounting surface 12, so the printing mechanism 5 is arranged adjacent to the receiving slot 11. The printing mechanism 5 is used to print receipts. The printing paper is arranged adjacent to the printing mechanism 5, so that the printing mechanism 5 can print on the printing paper, which makes the structure of the barcode scanner and printer more compact.

[0060] The scanning area B is provided with a mounting hole 14, the axis of which is the same as the Z direction. The scanning module is installed in the mounting hole 14, facing upward in the Z direction. The barcode or QR code is aligned with the scanning module, and the scanning module scans the barcode or QR code. The mounting hole 14 and the receiving groove 11 are adjacent to each other in the X direction, and the mounting hole 14 and the mounting platform 12 are also adjacent to each other in the X direction. That is to say, the scanning module and the printing mechanism 5 are adjacent to each other in the X direction, which facilitates the user's operation and application of the scanning and printing functions.

[0061] The voice broadcast area C is provided with a first mounting groove 13, which is adjacent to the receiving groove 11. The first mounting groove 13 and the receiving groove 11 are located on different sides of the mounting bracket 1. The first mounting groove 13 is located on the side of the receiving groove 11 away from the mounting hole 14. The first mounting groove 13 and the receiving groove 11 are separated by a partition 16, which is also a side wall of the receiving groove 11. The sound module is disposed in the first mounting groove 13.

[0062] The sound-generating module can be a speaker.

[0063] The barcode scanning and printing all-in-one machine of this application has a printing area A, a barcode scanning area B, and a voice broadcast area C set on the mounting bracket 1, and corresponding mechanisms are set in different areas. When the barcode scanning function and the printing function are integrated into one device, the barcode scanning and printing all-in-one machine has a reasonable structural layout, occupies less space, and is easy for users to manage, thereby improving work efficiency and convenience.

[0064] In one optional embodiment, the scanning module includes an imaging module 3 and a fill light cover 2. The fill light cover 2 is disposed inside the mounting hole 14, and a first through hole 25 is provided at the bottom of the fill light cover 2. The imaging module 3 is disposed at the first through hole 25 of the fill light cover 2.

[0065] like Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the scanning module includes an imaging module 3 and a fill light cover 2. The fill light cover 2 is disposed within the mounting hole 14, and a first through hole 25 is provided at the bottom of the fill light cover 2, which penetrates the inner and outer sides of the fill light cover 2 in the Z direction. The imaging module 3 is disposed on the outer side of the fill light cover 2, and is located at the first through hole 25. That is, the imaging module 3 is on the outer side of the fill light cover 2, passing through the first through hole 25 towards the inner side of the fill light cover 2. The axial direction of the first through hole 25 is the same as the axial direction of the mounting hole 14. When the user needs to scan a code, the barcode or QR code faces the imaging module 3, and the imaging module 3 can scan the barcode or QR code to read it.

[0066] Among them, imaging module 3 can be a camera.

[0067] In one optional embodiment, the barcode scanner and printer further includes a housing 9 and a cover plate 10. The mounting bracket 1 is located inside the housing 9, and the cover plate 10 is movably connected to the mounting bracket 1. The housing 9 is provided with a printing window 91 and a barcode scanning window 92. The printing window 91 and the barcode scanning window 92 are arranged adjacent to each other in the X direction. The fill light cover 2 corresponds to the barcode scanning window 92. The imaging module 3 faces the barcode scanning window 92, and the receiving slot 11 corresponds to the printing window 91.

[0068] The cover plate 10 includes a closed position and an open position. In the closed position, the cover plate 10 covers the receiving groove 11 at the printing window 91. In the open position, the cover plate 10 does not cover the receiving groove 11.

[0069] like Figure 7 As shown, the barcode scanner and printer also includes a housing 9 and a cover plate 10. The mounting bracket 1 is located inside the housing 9, and the printing mechanism 5, the barcode scanning module, and the sound generation module are all located inside the housing 9.

[0070] To further explain, the housing 9 is provided with a printing window 91 and a scanning window 92. The scanning window 92 and the printing window 91 are arranged adjacent to each other in the X direction. The printing window 91 corresponds to the receiving slot 11 and the mounting surface 12. The scanning window 92 corresponds to the scanning module. The imaging module 3 faces the scanning window 92. When the user aligns the barcode or QR code with the scanning window 92, the imaging module 3 can easily scan the QR code or barcode.

[0071] The cover plate 10 is movably connected to the mounting bracket 1, meaning that the cover plate 10 can rotate relative to the mounting bracket 1, allowing the cover plate 10 to be in a closed position or an open position. In the closed position, the cover plate 10 can cover the receiving slot 11 at the printing window 91, and in the open position, the receiving slot 11 can be exposed to facilitate paper replacement.

[0072] In one optional embodiment, the mounting bracket 1 is provided with a first connecting portion, the first connecting portion having a second through hole; the cover plate 10 is provided with a second connecting portion, the second connecting portion having a third through hole, the second through hole and the third through hole being concentric; a pin is inserted into the second through hole and the third through hole, so that the cover plate 10 can rotate around the axis of the pin to be in the open position or the closed position; specifically, the pin is detachably rotatably connected to the second through hole and the third through hole, and when the barcode scanner and printer all-in-one machine needs to be inspected or maintained, the pin can be removed from the second through hole and the third through hole, thereby allowing the cover plate 10 to be removed from the mounting bracket 1 for maintenance and inspection.

[0073] In one optional embodiment, the barcode scanner and printer further includes a blocking component, which is detachably disposed on the mounting bracket 1. The blocking component is used to prevent the pin from disengaging from the second through hole and the third through hole. By setting the blocking component to prevent the pin from disengaging from the second through hole and the third through hole, the installation stability between the cover plate 10 and the mounting bracket 1 is effectively improved, thereby preventing the cover plate 10 from separating from the mounting bracket 1 during transportation or in the event of a drop.

[0074] In one optional embodiment, the fill light cover 2 includes a first mounting surface 21 and a second mounting surface 22 facing the Z direction, the first mounting surface 21 and the second mounting surface 22 being spaced apart in the Y direction; the barcode scanner and printer also includes a first light board 7 and a second light board 8, the first light board 7 being provided with a first fill light 72, and the second light board 8 being provided with a second fill light 82; the first light board 7 is disposed on the first mounting surface 21, the first fill light 72 facing the interior of the fill light cover 2 and protruding from the first mounting surface 21; the second light board 8 is disposed on the second mounting surface 22, the second fill light 82 facing the interior of the fill light cover 2 and protruding from the second mounting surface 22.

[0075] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the fill light cover 2 includes a first mounting surface 21 and a second mounting surface 22; wherein, both the first mounting surface 21 and the second mounting surface 22 face upward in the Z direction, that is, both the first mounting surface 21 and the second mounting surface 22 are parallel to the XY plane; the first mounting surface 21 and the second mounting surface 22 are spaced apart in the Y direction, that is, the first mounting surface 21 and the second mounting surface 22 are located on opposite sides of the fill light cover 2 in the Y direction.

[0076] The barcode scanning and printing all-in-one machine also includes a first light board 7 and a second light board 8. The first light board 7 is electrically connected to the main board assembly 4, and the second light board 8 is electrically connected to the main board assembly 4.

[0077] Specifically, such as Figure 1 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, a first fill light 72 is provided on the first light panel 7. The first light panel 7 is mounted on the first mounting surface 21. The first fill light 72 is located on the side of the first light panel 7 facing the first mounting surface 21. Furthermore, the first fill light 72 protrudes from the first mounting surface 21 in the Y direction. In other words, the first fill light 72 faces the inside of the fill light cover 2. A second fill light 82 is provided on the second light panel 8. The second light panel 8 is mounted on the second mounting surface 22. The second fill light 82 is located on the side of the second light panel 8 facing the second mounting surface 22. Furthermore, the second fill light 82 protrudes from the second mounting surface 22 in the Y direction. In other words, the second fill light 82 faces the inside of the fill light cover 2. In this embodiment, the first supplementary light 72 and the second supplementary light 82 illuminate the inner side of the supplementary light cover 2. The light forms diffuse reflection inside the supplementary light cover 2, thereby improving the uniformity of the light inside the supplementary light cover 2. Therefore, the imaging module 3 will scan the QR code or barcode more clearly, thereby improving the imaging effect and reducing the time required for scanning, thus improving the convenience for users.

[0078] In an optional embodiment, the barcode scanner and printer further includes a first heat dissipation component and a second heat dissipation component. The first heat dissipation component is disposed between the first light panel 7 and the first mounting surface 21. The first heat dissipation component can improve the heat dissipation effect of the first light panel 7, thereby increasing the service life of the first light panel 7. The second heat dissipation component is disposed between the second mounting surface 22 and the second light panel 8. The second heat dissipation component can improve the heat dissipation effect of the second light panel 8, thereby increasing the service life of the second light panel 8.

[0079] In one alternative implementation, such as Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, at least one first positioning post 211 is provided on the first mounting surface 21, and at least one first positioning hole 71 is provided on the first lamp plate 7. The first positioning post 211 passes through the first positioning hole 71. The axial direction of the first positioning post 211 is the same as that of the Z direction, and the axial direction of the first positioning hole 71 is the same as that of the Z direction. When installing the first lamp plate 7, the first positioning post 211 is inserted into the first positioning hole 71, so as to accurately determine the installation position of the first lamp plate 7, thereby improving the installation efficiency of the first lamp plate 7.

[0080] In one alternative implementation, such as Figure 1 and Figure 5As shown, at least one second positioning post 221 is provided on the second mounting surface 22, and at least one second positioning hole 81 is provided on the second lamp plate 8. The second positioning post 221 passes through the second positioning hole 81. The axial direction of the second positioning post 221 is the same as that of the Z direction, and the axial direction of the second positioning hole 81 is the same as that of the Z direction. When installing the second lamp plate 8, the second positioning post 221 is inserted into the first positioning hole 71, so as to accurately determine the installation position of the second lamp plate 8, thereby improving the installation efficiency of the second lamp plate 8.

[0081] In one optional embodiment, the fill light cover 2 includes a first side surface 23 and a second side surface 24, both of which are located inside the fill light cover 2. The first side surface 23 and the second side surface 24 are arranged opposite to each other in the Y direction. The first side surface 23 intersects with the first mounting surface 21, and the second side surface 24 intersects with the second mounting surface 22. The distance between the first side surface 23 and the second side surface 24 in the Y direction gradually decreases from top to bottom along the Z direction.

[0082] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the fill light cover 2 includes a first side 23 and a second side 24; wherein, the first side 23 and the second side 24 are both located inside the fill light cover 2, which can also be understood as the first side 23 and the second side 24 being the inner side of the fill light cover 2; the first side 23 and the second side 24 are arranged opposite to each other in the Y direction, the first side 23 intersects with the first mounting surface 21, and the first fill light 72 is facing the first side 23, the second side 24 intersects with the second mounting surface 22, and the second fill light 82 is facing the second side 24.

[0083] To further explain, the first side 23 and the second side 24 have a gap in the Y direction, and this gap gradually decreases from top to bottom along the Z direction. That is to say, both the first side 23 and the second side 24 are inclined surfaces. When the light from the first supplementary light 72 shines on the first side 23 and the light from the second supplementary light 82 shines on the second side 24, the light can form multiple repeated scattering inside the supplementary light cover 2. Through the superposition of reflected light, the high uniformity of the illumination of the reflector is ensured. Moreover, the light reflected by the diffuse reflection layer can uniformly illuminate the QR code or barcode from all directions, thereby achieving a full-angle, uniform diffuse reflection, shadowless illumination supplementary light effect, which can improve the imaging effect of the imaging module 3 and reduce the time required for scanning.

[0084] In one alternative embodiment, the fill light cover 2 is white, and the mounting bracket 1 is black or gray. The fill light cover 2 is white, which has a high reflectivity. The colored object reflects more light, so it looks brighter and the reflection effect is more obvious, thereby achieving a better imaging effect.

[0085] Mounting bracket 1 is made of black or gray. The cost of black or gray plastic is less than that of white plastic. Therefore, mounting bracket 1 and fill light cover 2 are set separately and use different colors to reduce the cost of the barcode scanner without affecting its functionality.

[0086] In this embodiment, white refers to any color that can be determined to be white by observation. White can be milky white, ivory white, pearl white, grayish white, snow white, pure white, etc.

[0087] In one optional embodiment, the cover plate 10 is provided with a connecting rod 101 and a rubber roller 102, and the rubber roller 102 is disposed on the connecting rod 101;

[0088] In the closed position, the connecting rod 101 is connected to the printing mechanism 5, and a paper feeding channel is formed between the rubber roller 102 and the printing mechanism 5. The paper feeding channel is connected to the receiving groove 11.

[0089] In the open position, the connecting rod 101 is separated from the printing mechanism 5, and the rubber roller 102 is separated from the printing mechanism 5.

[0090] like Figure 7 As shown, the cover plate 10 is provided with a connecting rod 101 and a rubber roller 102. Specifically, the connecting rod 101 is located on the side of the cover plate 10 facing the mounting bracket 1, and the rubber roller 102 is located on the connecting rod 101. The connecting rod 101 can rotate relative to the cover plate 10. When the cover plate 10 is in the closed position, the connecting rod 101 cooperates with the printing mechanism 5, and a paper feeding channel is formed between the rubber roller 102 and the printing mechanism 5. The paper feeding channel is connected to the receiving groove 11. The printing paper passes through the paper feeding channel from the receiving groove 11. The rubber roller 102 rotates around its own axis, which can drive the printing paper to move to the outside of the receiving groove 11. When the printing paper passes through the paper feeding channel, the printing mechanism 5 can print the corresponding information on the printing paper.

[0091] In this embodiment, the connecting rod 101 serves two purposes: firstly, it can be used to mount the rubber roller 102, providing a mounting position for the rubber roller 102; secondly, when the cover plate 10 is in the closed position, the connecting rod 101 cooperates with the printing mechanism 5 to lock the cover plate 10 in the closed position, and the rubber roller 102 mounted on the connecting rod 101 forms a paper feeding channel with the printing mechanism 5. Therefore, the connecting rod 101 in this application can achieve multiple functions, thereby reducing the number of components in the barcode scanner and printer, resulting in a simpler, more compact structure for the barcode scanner and printer, and facilitating weight reduction.

[0092] In an optional embodiment, the mounting bracket 1 further includes a second mounting groove 15, which is located on the side of the receiving groove 11 away from the mounting hole 14 in the X direction. The second mounting groove 15 is spaced apart from the first mounting groove 13 in the Y direction, and the second mounting groove 15 is closer to the mounting platform 12 in the Y direction relative to the first mounting groove 13.

[0093] The integrated barcode scanning and printing system also includes an unlocking switch and an unlocking mechanism 104. The unlocking mechanism 104 is located on the mounting bracket 1, and the unlocking switch is located in the second mounting slot 15. The unlocking switch cooperates with the unlocking mechanism 104, and the unlocking switch drives the unlocking mechanism 104 to move the cover plate 10 from the closed position to the open position.

[0094] like Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, the mounting bracket 1 also includes a second mounting groove 15. The second mounting groove 15 is located in the X direction on the side of the receiving groove 11 away from the mounting hole 14. That is, the second mounting groove 15 and the first mounting groove 13 are located on the same side of the mounting bracket 1. The second mounting groove 15 is closer to the mounting table surface 12 in the Y direction relative to the first mounting groove 13. That is, the second mounting groove 15 is closer to the printing mechanism 5 relative to the first mounting groove 13.

[0095] The barcode scanner and printer also includes an unlocking mechanism 104 and an unlocking switch. The unlocking mechanism 104 is mounted on the mounting bracket 1 and includes an initial position and an unlocking position. When the cover 10 is in the closed position, the unlocking mechanism 104 is in the initial position. When the cover 10 needs to be changed from the closed position to the open position, the unlocking mechanism 104 moves from the initial position to the unlocking position, thereby lifting the cover 10 in the Z direction, which separates the connecting rod 101 on the cover 10 from the printing mechanism 5, thereby changing the cover 10 to the open position.

[0096] To further explain, the unlocking switch is located in the second mounting slot 15. The unlocking switch cooperates with the unlocking mechanism 104. When the unlocking mechanism 104 needs to change from the initial position to the unlocked position, pressing the unlocking switch can drive the unlocking mechanism 104 from the initial position to the unlocked position, thereby causing the cover plate 10 to change from the light ratio state to the open position.

[0097] In this embodiment, the unlocking switch is positioned in an ergonomic manner, making it easy for users to press the unlocking switch and thus improving the convenience of user operation.

[0098] In one specific embodiment, the housing 9 and the mounting bracket 1 are integrally formed, meaning that the housing 9 and the mounting bracket 1 are integrally molded. This embodiment eliminates the need for separate installation steps for the housing 9 and the mounting bracket 1. Furthermore, in this embodiment, the cover plate 10 is movably connected to the mounting bracket 1, meaning that the cover plate 10 is movably connected to the housing 9.

[0099] In another specific embodiment, the housing 9 and the mounting bracket 1 are separately arranged. That is to say, the housing 9 and the mounting bracket 1 are two parts. The printing mechanism 5, the scanning module and the sound-generating module are all set on the mounting bracket 1, which makes the installation more convenient.

[0100] In one optional embodiment, the barcode scanner and printer further includes a motherboard assembly 4, which is disposed on the mounting bracket 1 and electrically connected to the imaging module 3 and the sound-emitting module. The motherboard assembly 4 is mounted on the mounting bracket 1, electrically connected to the imaging module 3, and can control the operation of the imaging module 3. The motherboard assembly 4 is also electrically connected to the sound-emitting module, and can control the operation of the sound-emitting module.

[0101] In one optional embodiment, the motherboard assembly 4 includes a first circuit board 41 and a second circuit board 42, the first circuit board 41 and the second circuit board 42 are electrically connected, the sound-emitting module is connected to the first circuit board 41, and the imaging module 3 is electrically connected to the second circuit board 42; the first circuit board 41 is provided with a processor, and the second circuit board 42 is provided with a buzzer 421.

[0102] like Figure 8 As shown, the motherboard assembly 4 includes a first circuit board 41 and a second circuit board 42; wherein, the first circuit board 41 is electrically connected to the second circuit board 42, a processor is disposed on the first circuit board 41, a sound module is electrically connected to the first circuit board 41, a buzzer 421 is disposed on the second circuit board 42, and an imaging module 3 is electrically connected to the second circuit board 42.

[0103] Specifically, a buzzer 421 is set up so that it will announce the completion of the scanning process to remind the user. The sound module is used to announce the printing status of the printing mechanism 5. For example, after an order is received, the sound module will announce that the order has been received and the printing mechanism 5 will print the receipt. The combination of a buzzer 421 and a sound module can prevent the sound module from being unable to perform both tasks simultaneously when the scanning module and the printing mechanism 5 are working at the same time.

[0104] To further explain, a processor is installed on the first circuit board 41. Since the interference signal generated by the buzzer 421 may affect the data transmission of the processor, when the communication module is receiving or sending weak wireless signals, the interference generated by the buzzer 421 may cause data errors or communication interruptions. Therefore, the buzzer 421 is installed on the second circuit board 42 to avoid the buzzer 421 affecting the operation of the processor.

[0105] In a preferred embodiment, the barcode scanner and printer also includes a button circuit board, which is electrically connected to the mainboard assembly 4. The button circuit board is provided with multiple function buttons, such as a power button, a paper feed button, a volume button, and a detection button. The power button is used to control the barcode scanner and printer to be in a powered-on or powered-off state. The paper feed button is used to control the barcode scanner and printer to start feeding paper. The volume button is used to control the volume of the sound module. The detection button is used to control the barcode scanner and printer to automatically detect the network connection status.

[0106] The button circuit board can be integrated with the second lamp board 8 as one circuit board. In other words, multiple function keys and the second auxiliary light 82 are set on one circuit board, which can save internal space of the barcode scanning and printing integrated unit.

[0107] While specific embodiments of this application have been described in detail by way of examples, those skilled in the art should understand that the above examples are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of this application. Those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can be made to the above embodiments without departing from the scope and spirit of this application. The scope of this application is defined by the appended claims.
