[0046] The following is combined Figures 1-8 The following describes some embodiments of the present invention in detail. Unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.
[0047] This utility model provides a composite digital license plate, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the system includes a base plate 5, a cover plate 1, an RFID chip 4, and a license plate 2. The base plate 5 has a first mounting groove 10, and the license plate 2 is disposed within the first mounting groove 10. The bottom of the first mounting groove 10 has mounting holes 3, which are used to cooperate with sealing bolts to fix the base plate 5 to the electric bicycle. The cover plate 1 is an annular plate, fixedly connected to the base plate 5, and capable of covering the edge of the license plate 2, thus fixing the license plate 2 to the base plate 5. A positioning structure is provided between the cover plate 1 and the base plate 5 to position the license plate 2 within the first mounting groove 10. A second mounting groove 11 is provided on either the base plate 5 or the cover plate 1, and the RFID chip 4 is disposed in the second mounting groove 11, located between the base plate 5 and the cover plate 1.
[0048] In this embodiment, the base plate 5 serves as the basic structure of the entire license plate, supporting the license plate 2 and the RFID chip 4; the cover plate 1 is a ring-shaped design, fixedly connected to the base plate 5, covering the edge of the license plate 2, serving to fix and protect it, while also revealing important information of the license plate 2; the RFID chip 4 is used to store vehicle information and locate the vehicle, facilitating identification by electronic devices; the license plate 2 has information markings such as numbers or letters for visual recognition.
[0049] In this embodiment, the base plate 5 and the cover plate 1 are both made of engineering plastic, while the license plate 2 is made of metal.
[0050] Specifically, in this embodiment, the manufacturing process of the metal license plate 2 includes cutting the plate, applying reflective film, stamping the characters, and hot stamping. The material is selected from aluminum plate or stainless steel plate, which has the characteristics of high strength, hardness and high melting point, good corrosion resistance, and can maintain good stability in outdoor humid, acidic and alkaline environments. After the characters are three-dimensionally stamped, if the vehicle catches fire and spontaneously combusts, the ownership can still be identified by the three-dimensional license plate 2. The reflective film attached to the license plate 2 is beneficial for human eyes and road monitoring equipment to identify the license plate characters.
[0051] Specifically, in this embodiment, the cover plate 1 made of engineering plastic can effectively reduce the interference of metal materials on ultra-high frequency signals and does not affect the data transmission distance and speed; at the same time, it can be distinguished by color according to the vehicle's purpose (for example, green frame for civilian use and yellow frame for industry use). The lower part of the front frame cover plate 1 is printed with a QR code (containing the vehicle's electronic identity and its associated information) and traffic civilization promotion slogans according to the actual needs of road traffic managers and industry managers.
[0052] Specifically, in this embodiment, the base plate 5 and the cover plate 1 are the same color, mainly to maintain the overall stability.
[0053] In this embodiment, the cover plate 1 is set as an annular shape, with its inner edge coinciding with the edge of the license plate 2, which can cover the license plate 2 and fix it. The outer edge of the cover plate 1 coincides with the base plate 5, which can be fixedly connected to the base plate 5, thereby fixing the license plate 2 between the cover plate 1 and the base plate 5.
[0054] Specifically, in this embodiment, the base plate 5 has a first mounting groove 10, the license plate 2 is set in the first mounting groove 10 and positioned by the positioning structure on the cover plate 1 to ensure the stability of the license plate 2 in the first mounting groove 10.
[0055] In this embodiment, the second mounting slot 11 can be located on the base plate 5 and below the first mounting slot 10, or it can be directly placed on the bottom or side wall of the first mounting slot 10. That is, the second mounting slot 11 can be covered by the license plate 2 to position and fix the internal RFID, or it can be covered by the cover plate 1 to position and fix the internal RFID.
[0056] The composite digital license plate provided in this embodiment integrates mechanical protection, intelligent monitoring, and flexible installation. By adding a frame with a built-in RFID chip, such as a base plate and cover plate, to a traditional license plate, electronic identity is integrated while maintaining the original license plate specifications. This enables contactless, long-distance, and dynamic identification of vehicle electronic identities, facilitating monitoring and identification, and information retrieval via mobile terminals. It also enables traceability verification and non-site evidence collection management, enhancing the accuracy and efficiency of traffic enforcement, improving traffic management efficiency, solving the technical challenges of electronic transformation of traditional license plates, significantly reducing the cost of intelligent upgrades, and providing a practical and feasible technical path for standardized management.
[0057] In alternative implementations, such as Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the positioning structure includes an elastic post 7; a positioning groove 6 is provided on the cover plate 1, one end of the elastic post 7 is disposed in the positioning groove 6, and the other end of the elastic post 7 abuts against the license plate 2; a blocking protrusion 9 is provided on the edge of the license plate 2, and the elastic post 7 is disposed on one side of the blocking protrusion 9, and the elastic post 7 can prevent the license plate 2 from coming out between the cover plate 1 and the bottom plate 5.
[0058] In this embodiment, the depth of the first mounting groove 10 is greater than the thickness of the license plate 2. There is a protrusion on the cover plate 1 at the position corresponding to the first mounting groove 10. There is a positioning groove 6 on the protrusion. There is an elastic post 7 inside the positioning groove 6. One end of the elastic post 7 is inserted into the positioning groove 6, and the other end abuts against the surface of the license plate 2 to achieve pressing and positioning of the license plate 2.
[0059] Meanwhile, in this embodiment, a blocking protrusion 9 is provided at the edge of the license plate 2. The blocking protrusion 9 can be an annular protrusion, or a discontinuous protrusion or dot. The elastic post 7 is provided inside the blocking protrusion 9. The interior of the annulus formed by all the blocking protrusions 9 can apply pressure to the license plate 2, thereby ensuring that the license plate 2 does not shake.
[0060] In an optional embodiment, the positioning structure further includes a pressure sensor 8; the pressure sensor 8 is disposed in the positioning groove 6 and is capable of detecting the pressure of the elastic column 7.
[0061] In this embodiment, the installation status of the cover plate 1 can be detected by setting the pressure sensor 8.
[0062] When the cover plate 1 is installed, the pressure of the pressure sensor 8 is the set pressure value; when the cover plate 1 is illegally removed, the pressure of the pressure sensor 8 is zero or less than the set pressure value.
[0063] Therefore, based on the data from pressure sensor 8, it can be determined whether license plate 2 has been illegally removed, and an alarm can be triggered in a timely manner via RFID to improve vehicle safety.
[0064] In an optional embodiment, there are multiple positioning structures, which are symmetrically arranged on the cover plate 1.
[0065] In this embodiment, the setting of multiple positioning structures can not only ensure the stability of the license plate 2, but also reduce the judgment error of illegal disassembly and improve the accuracy of judgment through the setting of multiple pressure sensors 8.
[0066] In an optional embodiment, the mounting hole 3 is a waist-shaped hole.
[0067] In this embodiment, the waist-shaped hole design allows the base plate 5 to be compatible with a wide range of vehicle models, ensuring a high installation rate.
[0068] In alternative implementations, such as Figures 4 to 7 As shown, the base plate 5 is provided with a slot 12, and the cover plate 1 is provided with a claw 13; the claw 13 can be inserted into the slot 12 and cooperate with the tongue 15 in the slot 12 to fix the cover plate 1 on the base plate 5.
[0069] In this embodiment, the snap-fit design increases the difficulty of disassembling the composite digital license plate, making the entire composite digital license plate a single-use item, preventing it from being reused after illegal disassembly, and improving the safety of license plate 2.
[0070] In an optional embodiment, the claw 13 is provided with a plurality of teeth 14, which are arranged in a straight line on the claw 13 and can engage with the tongue 15 in sequence during the process of the claw 13 being inserted into the slot 12.
[0071] In this embodiment, the claw 13 is provided with a plurality of teeth 14, which cooperate with the tongue 15 to achieve the engagement between the claw 13 and the slot 12.
[0072] Specifically, such as Figure 8 As shown, during the downward insertion of the latch 15 into the slot 12, different teeth 14 match the latch 15, ensuring that the claw 13 can only be inserted downwards and cannot be pulled out. During installation, the latch 15 can be gently inserted first, and the front teeth 14 can be engaged with the latch 15 to achieve rough positioning of the cover plate 1. This allows for the inspection of components such as the license plate 2 and the elastic post 7. After ensuring accurate positioning, the cover plate 1 is pressed down, and the claw 13 is inserted into the slot 12, completing the fixed connection between the cover plate 1 and the base plate 5.
[0073] In an optional embodiment, a sealant 16 is provided in the slot 12.
[0074] In this embodiment, after the sealant 16 is applied to the bottom plate 5 of the slot 12, the tooth 14 can be fixed by the sealant 16 after the tongue 15 is inserted into the slot 12. After the sealant 16 dries, the tooth 14 is fixed in place, and the tongue 15 cannot be properly removed from the slot 12, reducing the probability of illegal disassembly.
[0075] In an optional embodiment, the fixed connection between the base plate 5 and the cover plate 1 is an anti-theft sealing bolt connection.
[0076] It is understood that in the aforementioned embodiments, the fixed connection between the base plate 5 and the cover plate 1 is a snap-fit connection. It can also be connected by anti-theft sealing bolts as described in this embodiment, or by other methods such as bonding, welding, or hot melting, as long as it can achieve the fixed connection between the cover plate 1 and the base plate 5.
[0077] In an optional embodiment, the outer and inner ring edges of the cover plate 1 are both sealed to the bottom plate 5.
[0078] By using a sealed connection, the security of the internal RFID chip 4 can be guaranteed, the influence of the external environment on the RFID chip 4 can be reduced, and the loss of the RFID chip 4 from the second mounting slot 11 can be prevented.
[0079] In this embodiment, the sealing method between the cover plate 1 and the bottom plate 5 is ultrasonic sealing.
[0080] It is understandable that the sealing method between the cover plate 1 and the base plate 5 can be ultrasonic sealing, but it is not limited to ultrasonic sealing. Other sealing methods can also be used, such as gasket sealing, as long as a sealing connection between the cover plate 1 and the base plate 5 can be achieved.
[0081] The beneficial effects of this utility model embodiment are:
[0082] Anti-theft and tracking: The base plate 5 and the cover plate 1 are fixed together by a ring-shaped covering and snap-fit / sealing bolts to form double protection. Combined with the built-in RFID chip 4 to store unique vehicle information (such as vehicle purpose, vehicle status, model, trademark, vehicle weight, body color, manufacturing date, sales company name, initial registration date, insurance information, owner's identity information, license plate number, etc.), it supports remote identification and tracking, significantly improving anti-theft capabilities.
[0083] Anti-detachment and positioning: The elastic column 7 and the blocking protrusion 9 of the license plate 2 work together to limit displacement and prevent vibration from causing the license plate 2 to fall off. The pressure sensor 8 monitors abnormal disassembly in real time.
[0084] Installation compatibility: The base plate has 5 waist-shaped mounting holes 3, which allow for fine adjustment of the position of the fixing bolts, making it compatible with different vehicle models and frames. The first mounting slot 10 has a standardized design that is compatible with multiple license plate sizes 2.
[0085] Sealed and durable: The inner and outer rings of the cover plate 1 and the base plate 5 are sealed to prevent water and dust, protect internal components, and extend service life.
[0086] Overall advantages: Integrating mechanical protection, intelligent monitoring and flexible installation, it solves the pain points of traditional license plates such as easy theft, easy damage and difficulty in information traceability, and improves traffic management efficiency and vehicle safety.
[0087] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
