Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of barcode scanner technology, and in particular to a barcode scanner with an automatically cleanable scanner head. Background Technology
[0002] A barcode scanner is an input device that uses optical or imaging technology to convert symbolic information such as barcodes and QR codes into digital signals that can be recognized by a computer. Its core function is to replace manual keyboard input and achieve fast, accurate, and batch data collection. It is widely used in retail, logistics, industry, medical and other fields. In order to ensure the cleanliness of the barcode scanner, we need to use barcode scanners with automatic cleaning barcode heads.
[0003] In the existing technology, the device needs to clean the glass surface of its scanning area by using a cleaning fluid and a roller brush. In traditional glass surface cleaning, the surface is often exposed to the air, and the cleaning fluid splashes everywhere during cleaning, causing the surrounding area to get wet and affecting hygiene. Cleaning requires going to a specific location, which is inconvenient for users. The continuous discharge of cleaning fluid may lead to waste of cleaning fluid, increasing the operating cost of the device during cleaning. Therefore, it is necessary to improve the scanner by developing a scanner with an automatic cleaning head to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] To overcome the problem that barcode scanners with self-cleaning heads cannot be cleaned in enclosed conditions, which affects hygiene, causes inconvenience, and increases operating costs.
[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: a scanner with an automatically cleanable scanning head, including a handle, a first motor and a cleaning component, a support base connected to the bottom of the handle, a detection button for controlling the start and operation of the device on the handle, a scanning probe supporting the scanner on the top of the handle, the first motor on the scanning probe, a rotating adjustment rod fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor, a telescopic adjustment rod on the rotating adjustment rod, a mounting adjustment bracket fixedly connected to the front of the telescopic adjustment rod, a second motor fixedly connected to the outside of the mounting adjustment bracket, a rotating fixing rod fixedly connected to the output end of the second motor, and a sealing cover for sealing the inner cavity of the scanning probe head fixedly connected to the rotating fixing rod.
[0006] Preferably, there are two telescopic adjustment rods, and the two telescopic adjustment rods are symmetrically and fixedly connected to the rotating adjustment rod.
[0007] Preferably, the scanning probe has a groove at the corresponding position of the mounting and adjusting bracket, and the mounting and adjusting bracket rotates inside the groove.
[0008] Preferably, a third motor is fixedly connected to the right side of the sealed cover, and a rotating shaft is fixedly connected to the output end of the third motor, with a stirring roller fixedly connected to the rotating shaft.
[0009] Preferably, the sealing cover has a groove at the corresponding position of the stirring roller, and the stirring roller rotates inside the groove.
[0010] Preferably, the cleaning component includes a sludge storage box located inside the handle, a water pump for guiding cleaning water on the sealed cover, a transmission pipe for conveying cleaning wastewater between the water pump and the sludge storage box, a cleaning liquid storage box for storing cleaning water on the top of the scanning probe, a delivery pipe for conveying cleaning water between the cleaning liquid storage box and the water pump, a cleaning nozzle for discharging cleaning water on the sealed cover, and a blowing device inside the scanning probe.
[0011] Preferably, there are several cleaning nozzles, and these cleaning nozzles are evenly distributed on the sealing cover.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0013] 1. Compared to scanners with self-cleaning heads that cannot be cleaned in enclosed conditions, this device uses a first motor to drive a rotating adjustment rod to adjust the angle, and a second motor to drive a rotating sealing cover on a fixed rod to the appropriate angle. A telescopic adjustment rod then pulls the sealing cover to seal the inner cavity of the scanning probe, preventing cleaning fluid from splashing during cleaning and ensuring hygiene. This eliminates the need for cleaning in specific locations, providing convenience for users and preventing continuous discharge of cleaning fluid, thus reducing waste and lowering equipment cleaning costs. This effectively prevents the inconvenience and increased operating costs associated with scanners with self-cleaning heads that cannot be cleaned in enclosed conditions.
[0014] 2. The cleaning water inside the cleaning solution storage box is pumped through the infusion pipe to the cleaning nozzle and discharged. The cleaning wastewater is then guided into the storage box through the transmission pipe. This effectively prevents wastewater from being wasted, effectively stores the cleaning wastewater, prevents splashing that could affect the user's experience, and effectively ensures that the improper discharge of wastewater does not harm the environment. By storing the cleaning wastewater, the system provides convenience to the user. Attached Figure Description
