Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of highway equipment technology, and in particular to a self-service customs clearance device. Background Technology
[0002] With the widespread use of highway composite toll cards, self-service equipment for highway composite toll cards is also emerging.
[0003] CPC cards (Highway Composite Toll Cards) are the primary basis for non-ETC vehicles to exit highways for toll collection. The traditional card-collecting method requires drivers to insert their CPC cards into the card slot, and then the reader reads and writes them, which is relatively slow and significantly impacts traffic efficiency. With the card drop-off box, drivers only need to drop the card into the box, eliminating the need for precise alignment with the card slot. This greatly reduces the difficulty of card collection for drivers, thereby improving traffic efficiency.
[0004] In the relevant technical field, during rainy weather, when the tipper is open, rainwater will drift onto the surface of the card receiving label. Then, when the driver throws the CPC card onto the surface of the card receiving label, there is a certain probability that the card will stick to the water. This causes the card to easily adhere to the tipper, and finally, when the tipper is closed and the gate is open, the CPC card cannot fall into the recycling bag by its own weight, resulting in a failure to collect the card. Utility Model Content
[0005] This utility model provides a self-service clearance device to solve the problem in the prior art where rainwater can drift onto the card receiving label and stick to the CPC card, causing the CPC card to fail to fall into the recycling bag under its own weight, resulting in card collection failure. It can effectively solve the problem of water sticking to the CPC card when relying on the card's own weight for recycling, thereby improving the recycling efficiency of CPC cards in rainy weather and reducing the impact of weather factors on passage efficiency.
[0006] This utility model provides a self-service customs clearance device, comprising:
[0007] The cabinet has a card recycling port on the side facing the driveway;
[0008] A flip bucket is rotatably connected to the card recycling port. The flip bucket has an open card receiving part. On the rotation path of the flip bucket, the flip bucket has an open state and a closed state. When the flip bucket is in the open state, the card receiving part is exposed to the outside; when the flip bucket is in the closed state, the card receiving part is housed inside the cabinet.
[0009] The receiving part has a receiving surface, which is the bottom surface when the flipping bucket is in the open state. A hydrophobic structure is provided on the receiving surface, which is used to form a gap between the receiving surface and the CPC card surface.
[0010] According to the present invention, a self-service customs clearance device is provided, wherein the hydrophobic structure is composed of alternating protrusions and depressions.
[0011] According to the present invention, a self-service customs clearance device is provided in which the protrusions and recesses are evenly arranged.
[0012] According to the present invention, a self-service clearance device is provided, wherein the interface between the protrusion and the recess has a set slope.
[0013] According to the present invention, a self-service clearance device is provided, wherein a card recycling channel is formed inside the cabinet, the card recycling channel is connected to the card recycling port, and the self-service clearance device further includes a recycling detection component, which is arranged around the card recycling port and corresponding to the card recycling channel. The recycling detection component is used to detect CPC cards that fall from the tipping bucket into the card recycling channel.
[0014] According to the present invention, a self-service clearance device is provided, wherein the recycling detection component includes a first mounting plate, a second mounting plate, a recycling detection transmitting sensor plate, and a recycling detection receiving sensor plate. The recycling detection transmitting sensor plate is mounted on one side of the card recycling channel via the first mounting plate, and the recycling detection receiving sensor plate is mounted on the opposite side of the card recycling channel via the second mounting plate.
[0015] According to the present invention, a self-service clearance device is provided, which further includes a gate assembly installed at the card recycling port and used to control the opening and closing of the card recycling port.
[0016] According to the self-service clearance device provided by this utility model, the end of the card recycling channel is provided with a first card channel and a second card channel. A first-class card recycling bin is provided below the first card channel, and a second-class card recycling bin is provided below the second card channel. The self-service clearance device also includes a card blocking mechanism, which is rotatably disposed between the card recycling channel, the first card channel, and the second card channel. The card blocking mechanism is used to control the card recycling channel to connect with the first card channel or the card recycling channel to connect with the second card channel.
[0017] According to the present invention, a self-service clearance device is provided, wherein the card blocking mechanism includes a card blocking plate and a card blocking shaft. The lower end of the card blocking plate is connected to the card blocking shaft, and the upper end of the card blocking plate is in the card recycling channel, so as to control the card recycling channel to be connected to the first card channel or the card recycling channel to be connected to the second card channel.
[0018] According to the self-service clearance device provided by this utility model, the second-class card recycling bin is located above the first-class card recycling bin, and the volume of the second-class card is smaller than that of the first-class card.
[0019] The self-service clearance device provided by this utility model has a hydrophobic structure on the card receiving surface. The hydrophobic structure creates a gap between the CPC card and the card receiving surface, which prevents water from adsorbing the CPC card through surface tension. As a result, when the tilting bucket is flipped to the closed state (the card receiving surface changes from horizontal to vertical), the CPC card and water fall back down on their own, reducing the problem of card adhesion caused by water. This allows the CPC card to maintain good sliding properties even in rainy weather and is easy to retrieve. Attached Figure Description

In this specification, the illustrative expressions of the above terms do not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Furthermore, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments or examples. Moreover, without contradiction, those skilled in the art can combine and integrate the different embodiments or examples described in this specification, as well as the features of different embodiments or examples.
[0042] The following is combined Figures 1 to 7 The self-service customs clearance equipment provided by the present utility model will be described in detail through specific embodiments and application scenarios.
[0043] In the embodiments of this utility model, such as Figures 1 to 4As shown, the self-service clearance device 1 includes a cabinet 11 and a flip-top hopper 12. The cabinet 11 has a card recycling port 111 on the side facing the lane. The flip-top hopper 12 is rotatably connected to the card recycling port 111. The flip-top hopper 12 has a card receiving part 121 with an opening 122. On the rotation path of the flip-top hopper 12, the flip-top hopper 12 has an open state and a closed state. When the flip-top hopper 12 is in the open state, the card receiving part 121 is exposed to the outside. When the flip-top hopper 12 is in the closed state, the card receiving part 121 is housed in the cabinet 11. The card receiving part 121 has a card receiving surface 1211. The card receiving surface 1211 is the bottom surface when the flip-top hopper 12 is in the open state. A hydrophobic structure 1212 is provided on the card receiving surface 1211. The hydrophobic structure 1212 is used to form a gap between the card receiving surface 1211 and the surface of the CPC card 2.
[0044] As the main structure of the self-service customs clearance equipment 1, the cabinet 11 provides necessary protection and support. The interior of the cabinet 11 can accommodate key components such as the tilting bucket 12, sensors, and drive mechanisms, ensuring the overall stability and reliability of the equipment.
[0045] Card recycling port 111 is located on the side of cabinet 11 facing the driveway and is the only channel for CPC card 2 to enter the device.
[0046] The flip bucket 12 is rotatably connected to the card recycling port 111 and is a key component in the CPC card 2 recycling process. The flip bucket 12 can switch between an open and closed state, realizing the reception and transportation of CPC cards 2.
[0047] The card receiving section 121 has an opening 122 for easy insertion of CPC cards 2. When the tipping bucket 12 is in the open position, the card receiving section 121 is exposed to the outside, and the driver can easily insert the card into it.
[0048] When the tipping bucket 12 is in the open state, the card receiving section 121 of the tipping bucket 12 is exposed to the outside and is in a ready state to receive CPC cards 2. This state is designed to ensure that the driver can accurately insert the card into the device.
[0049] Once CPC card 2 is successfully received, the flip bucket 12 rotates to the closed state, housing the card receiving section 121 inside the cabinet 11. This design protects the card from external environmental interference while ensuring that the card can smoothly enter the recycling process.
[0050] The receiving surface 1211 is located on the receiving part 121 of the tilting bucket 12 and is the main part that contacts the CPC card 2 with the equipment. When the tilting bucket 12 is in the open state, the receiving surface 1211 serves as the bottom surface and directly faces the CPC card 2.
[0051] A hydrophobic structure 1212 is disposed on the receiving surface 1211. By forming tiny air gaps, the hydrophobic structure 1212 makes it difficult for a water film to form between the CPC card 2 and the receiving surface 1211, thereby disrupting the conditions for water to adhere to the CPC card 2 through surface tension. This design effectively solves the problem of the CPC card 2 easily adhering to the receiving surface 1211 under rainy conditions.
[0052] This application provides a hydrophobic structure 1212 on the card receiving surface 1211. The hydrophobic structure 1212 creates a gap between the CPC card 2 and the card receiving surface 1211, preventing water from adsorbing the CPC card 2 through surface tension. As a result, when the flipping bucket 12 is flipped to the closed state (the card receiving surface 1211 changes from horizontal to vertical), the CPC card 2 and water fall back down on their own, reducing the card adhesion problem caused by moisture. This allows the CPC card 2 to maintain good sliding properties even in rainy weather, making it easy to recycle.
[0053] Reference Figure 4 According to the present invention, a self-service customs clearance device 1 has a hydrophobic structure 1212 consisting of alternating protrusions 1212a and recesses 1212b.
[0054] Understandably, the alternating arrangement of protrusions 1212a and recesses 1212b increases the surface roughness of the card receiving surface 1211, which helps water droplets form a discontinuous state on the card receiving surface 1211, rather than forming a continuous water film. Since water droplets do not easily spread on a rough surface, they are more likely to roll off or be shaken off the card receiving surface 1211. The structure of the protrusions 1212a and recesses 1212b can create tiny air layers or gaps between the card receiving surface 1211 and the CPC card 2. These air layers reduce the direct contact area between the card and the card receiving surface 1211. This helps to disrupt the surface tension of the water, preventing water droplets from effectively adhering to the card receiving surface 1211. The recesses 1212b can act as guide channels, helping the water flow along a specific path, thereby accelerating the removal of water from the card receiving surface 1211. When the tilting bucket 12 is tilted, this water flow can carry away any water droplets adhering to the card, reducing the likelihood of card adhesion.
[0055] Due to the presence of the protrusions 1212a and the recesses 1212b, even in the presence of moisture, the CPC card 2 is less likely to adhere to the receiving surface 1211, as water droplets are effectively separated, allowing the card to slide more easily. By reducing adhesion between the card and the receiving surface 1211, the hydrophobic structure 1212 ensures that the CPC card 2 can smoothly fall into the recycling bin under its own weight when the flipping bucket 12 changes from the open state to the closed state, thereby improving the efficiency and success rate of card recycling.
[0056] Reference Figure 4According to the present invention, a self-service customs clearance device 1 is provided, wherein the protrusions 1212a and the recesses 1212b are evenly arranged.
[0057] Understandably, by evenly arranging the protrusions 1212a and the recesses 1212b, it can be ensured that moisture on the entire card receiving surface 1211 can be evenly guided and drained. This helps prevent water accumulation in certain areas, thereby reducing the risk of card adhesion.
[0058] In one embodiment, the interface between the protrusion 1212a and the recess 1212b has a set slope.
[0059] Understandably, a set slope at the interface can effectively promote the flow of water along the slope direction, thereby accelerating the removal of water droplets from the receiving surface 1211. This prevents water from remaining on the receiving surface 1211, reducing the possibility of water adhering to the CPC card 2.
[0060] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 According to the self-service clearance device 1 provided by this utility model, a card recycling channel 13 is formed inside the cabinet 11. The card recycling channel 13 is connected to the card recycling port 111. The self-service clearance device 1 also includes a recycling detection component 14. The recycling detection component 14 is arranged around the card recycling port 111 and is set corresponding to the card recycling channel 13. The recycling detection component 14 is used to detect CPC cards 2 that fall from the flipping bucket 12 into the card recycling channel 13.
[0061] Understandably, the card recycling channel 13 is a dedicated path designed inside the cabinet 11 to guide the CPC card 2 smoothly from the flip bucket 12 to the recycling position. This ensures that the card is not obstructed during its fall and can smoothly pass through the inside of the cabinet 11 to reach the preset recycling point.
[0062] The recycling detection component 14 typically includes sensors or other detection devices, which are arranged around the card recycling port 111, corresponding to the position of the card recycling channel 13.
[0063] The recycling detection component 14 detects whether the CPC card 2 has fallen from the flip bucket 12 into the card recycling channel 13 and finally enters the recycling bag through the recycling port. This ensures that each card is correctly recycled, improving system reliability. When the CPC card 2 passes through the recycling port, the recycling detection component 14 sends a signal to confirm that the card has been successfully recycled. This can be used to update system records, indicating that the CPC card 2 has been returned, thereby avoiding charging errors or card loss. If the recycling detection component 14 does not detect a card passing through, it can trigger an alarm or an exception handling procedure to notify maintenance personnel of potential card retention issues. This helps to resolve problems promptly and ensures the continuous and normal operation of the self-service clearance device 1.
[0064] Reference Figure 5 According to the self-service clearance device 1 provided by this utility model, the recycling detection component 14 includes a first mounting plate 141, a second mounting plate 142, a recycling detection transmitting sensor plate 143 and a recycling detection receiving sensor plate 144. The recycling detection transmitting sensor plate 143 is mounted on one side of the card recycling channel 13 through the first mounting plate 141, and the recycling detection receiving sensor plate 144 is mounted on the opposite side of the card recycling channel 13 through the second mounting plate 142.
[0065] Understandably, the first mounting plate 141 and the second mounting plate 142 are used to fix and mount the recycling detection transmitting sensor plate 143 and the recycling detection receiving sensor plate 144. The function of the first mounting plate 141 and the second mounting plate 142 is to provide stable support for the sensors, ensuring that the sensors are in the accurate position in the card recycling channel 13 and will not be displaced due to vibration or external factors.
[0066] The recycling detection emission sensor 143 is installed on one side of the card recycling channel 13. Its function is usually to emit signals, such as infrared light, ultrasonic waves or other forms of electromagnetic waves.
[0067] The recycling detection receiving sensor board 144 is installed on the opposite side of the card recycling channel 13, and its function is to receive the signal emitted by the transmitting sensor board.
[0068] Since the transmitting and receiving sensor boards are located on opposite sides of the channel, they can effectively cover the entire channel, reducing missed detections caused by card position offset.
[0069] Reference Figures 1 to 8 According to the present invention, a self-service clearance device 1 is provided, which further includes a gate assembly 15. The gate assembly 15 is installed at the card recycling port 111 and is used to control the opening and closing of the card recycling port 111.
[0070] Understandably, the gate assembly 15 is installed at the card collection port 111, which is the entrance to the collection channel after the card falls from the tipping hopper 12. This allows the gate assembly 15 to effectively control the timing of the card entering the collection channel. The gate assembly 15 can precisely control the opening and closing of the card collection port 111, thereby ensuring that the CPC card 2 is collected at the appropriate time. This helps to avoid the loss or miscollection of the CPC card 2, improving the reliability and accuracy of the equipment.
[0071] Reference Figures 6 to 8According to the self-service clearance device 1 provided by this utility model, a first card channel 16 and a second card channel 17 are provided at the end of the card recycling channel 13. A first-class card recycling box 18 is provided below the first card channel 16, and a second-class card recycling box 19 is provided below the second card channel 17. The self-service clearance device 1 also includes a card blocking mechanism 20, which is rotatably disposed between the card recycling channel 13, the first card channel 16 and the second card channel 17. The card blocking mechanism 20 is used to control the card recycling channel 13 to connect with the first card channel 16 or to connect with the second card channel 17.
[0072] Understandably, the first card lane 16 and the second card lane 17 are two branching paths at the end of the card recycling channel 13, which guide different types of cards respectively.
[0073] Below the first card lane 16, there is a card recycling bin 18 for recycling specific types of cards, such as the CPC card 2 that is in normal use.
[0074] Below the second card lane 17 is a second-class card recycling bin 19, which is used to recycle other types of cards, such as damaged cards, abnormal cards, or cards of different types.
[0075] The card blocking mechanism 20 is rotatably positioned between the card recycling channel 13, the first card channel 16, and the second card channel 17, serving as a switch or diversion mechanism.
[0076] The card-blocking mechanism 20 can rotate as needed, thereby controlling whether the card flows from the card recycling channel 13 to the first card channel 16 or the second card channel 17. This control mechanism allows the device to distribute cards to different recycling bins based on the card type or status.
[0077] By adjusting the card-blocking mechanism 20, cards can be sorted and recycled to facilitate subsequent card processing and management, such as quickly identifying and separating damaged cards. Sorting and recycling reduces the difficulty and time of subsequent manual processing, improving the overall processing efficiency and accuracy of the self-service clearance equipment 1. The card-blocking mechanism 20 prevents confusion between different types of cards, ensuring the purity of the cards in the recycling bin and facilitating subsequent operation and management.
[0078] Reference Figures 6 to 8 According to the self-service clearance device 1 provided by this utility model, the card blocking mechanism 20 includes a card blocking plate 201 and a card blocking shaft 202. The lower end of the card blocking plate 201 is connected to the card blocking shaft 202, and the upper end of the card blocking plate 201 is in the card recycling channel 13, so as to control the card recycling channel 13 to be connected to the first card channel 16 or the card recycling channel 13 to be connected to the second card channel 17.
[0079] It is understandable that the card baffle 201 is a movable component in the card blocking mechanism 20, with its upper end located in the card recycling channel 13 and its lower end connected to the card blocking shaft 202. The function of the card baffle 201 is to act as a movable barrier, controlling the flow direction of the cards by changing its position.
[0080] The card-blocking shaft 202 is the support and rotation shaft for the card-blocking plate 201. It connects to the card-blocking plate 201 and allows the card-blocking plate 201 to rotate around the shaft. The function of the card-blocking shaft 202 is to provide power and support, so that the card-blocking plate 201 can change its angle as needed, thereby controlling the flow path of the card.
[0081] The card blocking mechanism 20 can control whether the card flows from the card recycling channel 13 to the first card channel 16 or the second card channel 17 by rotating the card blocking plate 201. When the card blocking plate 201 is in one position, the card will flow to the first card channel 16; when the card blocking plate 201 is rotated to another position, the card will flow to the second card channel 17.
[0082] The card sorting and recycling can be achieved by controlling the card blocking mechanism 20. For example, normal CPC cards 2 can be directed to the first card channel 16, while damaged or abnormal cards can be directed to the second card channel 17.
[0083] Reference Figures 6 to 8 According to the present invention, a self-service customs clearance device 1 is provided, wherein a Class II card recycling bin 19 is located above a Class I card recycling bin 18, and the volume of the Class II card is smaller than that of the Class I card.
[0084] Understandably, vertically stacking recycling bins allows for more efficient use of space and reduces the equipment's footprint. Furthermore, by rationally allocating bin capacity according to the actual needs of different card types, resource waste and uneven space utilization are avoided, thus improving system reliability and management efficiency.
[0085] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and not to limit it. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some of the technical features. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
