[0002] In places such as banks, hotels, and government service halls, various self-service devices are usually installed in the lobby, such as ATMs and self-service terminals.

[0003] Traditional machine covers are simply outer shells, offering poor impact protection. Equipment is frequently damaged by pedestrian collisions or scratches from cleaning equipment. Ordinary covers fail to effectively cushion impacts, leading to easy deformation of the outer shell and loosening of internal components. This not only affects the equipment's appearance and causes malfunctions, shortening its lifespan and increasing maintenance costs and frequency, but also obstructs maintenance door opening mechanisms or has an unreasonable location or structure, prolonging maintenance time and reducing equipment efficiency. Furthermore, the complex environment of the lobby, with its airflow carrying large amounts of dust and debris, means that ordinary covers lack effective filtration devices. Dust and other contaminants can easily enter the equipment, accumulating on circuit boards, cooling fans, and other critical components, causing poor heat dissipation, overheating, throttling, or even system crashes. They can also cause short circuits, damaging electronic components and severely impacting the equipment's stability and reliability.

[0004] This invention can effectively improve the stability and reliability of equipment. Utility Model Content

[0016] Beneficial effects:

[0017] 1. By incorporating anti-collision strips, self-service equipment in a lobby environment with frequent foot traffic is inevitably subject to collisions. These strips provide a reliable protective barrier. First, the strips are made of rubber, a material with excellent elasticity and cushioning properties. When the equipment is impacted, the strips absorb the impact force through their elastic deformation, greatly reducing the transmission of the impact force to the equipment itself. This lowers the probability of damage to the outer casing or loosening of internal components due to collisions, effectively extending the equipment's lifespan. Second, the anti-collision strips are detachably connected to the cover using clips, slots, and angled positioning blocks. This design makes the installation of the anti-collision strips easier and more convenient. The replacement is extremely convenient. Once the anti-collision strip becomes worn, aged, or damaged due to long-term use, the staff can quickly remove it and replace it with a new one. No complicated operations or tools are required, which saves maintenance time and reduces maintenance costs. At the same time, the detachable anti-collision strip also facilitates packaging and handling during the production, transportation, and installation of the equipment cover, avoiding the increase in operational difficulty due to the presence of the anti-collision strip. In addition, the anti-collision strip is installed on the outer edge of the cover, which can fully cover the parts of the equipment that are prone to collisions, forming a complete protective ring. Whether it is an unintentional collision by a pedestrian or a scratch from cleaning the equipment, the anti-collision strip can play a timely role, providing continuous and effective protection for the equipment and ensuring stable operation of the equipment in the complex lobby environment.

[0018] 2. The system incorporates a filter plate, a crucial component for ensuring a clean internal environment and playing an indispensable role in the stable operation of the equipment. Firstly, the filter plate is installed inside the maintenance door. During operation, air flows inside and outside the equipment, and the filter plate efficiently filters this incoming air, effectively intercepting dust, hair, paper scraps, and other debris. This prevents these contaminants from entering the equipment, avoiding problems such as poor heat dissipation due to dust accumulation, short circuits, and mechanical component jamming caused by debris entanglement. This reduces the equipment's failure rate and ensures stable performance and extended service life. Secondly, the filter plate is detachably connected to the through-slot, and the design, combined with the U-shaped through-slot, rebound device, and limit block, ensures the filter plate's stability. Installation and disassembly are very simple. After a period of use, a large amount of filtered impurities will adhere to the surface of the filter plate, affecting the filtration effect. At this time, the operator can easily disassemble it for cleaning or replacement. By simply applying external force to retract the limiting block into the groove, the filter plate can be removed. After cleaning or replacement, it can be quickly reinstalled in its original position, which is convenient and efficient, effectively improving the maintenance efficiency of the equipment. Furthermore, the arc-shaped design and rubber material at the top of the limiting block enhance the fixing effect on the filter plate. This design can closely fit the edge of the filter plate, increasing friction and ensuring that the filter plate will not loosen or shift due to vibration or other factors during equipment operation. This ensures that the filter plate is always in good working condition, continuously providing a clean air environment for the equipment and maintaining its normal operation.

[0019] 3. In summary, this type of lobby self-service equipment cover, through the installation of anti-collision strips and other structures, uses rubber material to absorb the impact force of collisions through elastic deformation, reducing the risk of equipment damage and extending its service life. Its detachable design facilitates installation and replacement, reducing maintenance costs. The filter plate is installed inside the maintenance door, which can efficiently filter air, prevent dust and debris from entering the equipment, and reduce faults such as poor heat dissipation and short circuits. At the same time, the detachable connection between the filter plate and the through groove, together with the rebound device and limit block, facilitates disassembly, cleaning and replacement, and enhances the fixing effect, ensuring stable operation of the equipment and guaranteeing its performance in complex environments.

[0028] The following will refer to the appendix in the embodiments of this utility model. Figures 1-7 The technical solutions in the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described.

[0029] Please see Figure 1-7 In this embodiment of the utility model, a self-service equipment cover for a lobby includes: a cover body 1, with a detachable anti-collision strip 2 connected to the outer edge of the cover body 1; a maintenance door 3 is hinged to the rear end of the cover body 1; a handle 4 is embedded on the outer side of the maintenance door 3; a filter plate 5 is embedded inside the maintenance door 3; and a limit block 6 is embedded on the outer side of the filter plate 5. The front end and inner side of the cover body 1 are provided with slots 101. Two clips 201 are installed on the inner side of the anti-collision strip 2, both of which are embedded in the slots 101 and are detachably connected. Positioning blocks 202 are fixedly installed on both sides of the clips 201, and both positioning blocks 202 are embedded in the slots 101. The positioning blocks 202 are inclined, and the slots 101 and positioning blocks 202 are detachably connected. Both the anti-collision strip 2 and the positioning blocks 202 are made of rubber.

[0030] When installing the anti-collision strip 2, align the inner retaining strip 201 of the anti-collision strip 2 with the front end and inner groove 101 of the cover 1. Since the positioning blocks 202 on both sides of the retaining strip 201 are inclined, as the retaining strip 201 is inserted into the groove 101, the positioning blocks 202 will gradually slide into the groove 101. Utilizing the elastic deformation of the rubber material, the positioning blocks 202 are secured into the groove 101, achieving a firm connection between the anti-collision strip 2 and the cover 1. When it is necessary to remove the anti-collision strip 2, under the action of external force, the positioning blocks 202 undergo elastic deformation and disengage from the groove 101, allowing the retaining strip 201 to be pulled out of the groove 101, thus completing the installation of the anti-collision strip 2. Disassembly; When equipment repair or maintenance is required, grasp the handle 4 on the outside of the maintenance door 3 and rotate the maintenance door 3 around the hinge to open it, allowing operation inside the equipment. After maintenance, close the maintenance door 3. The filter plate 5 is installed inside the maintenance door 3. During equipment operation, as air flows inside and outside the equipment, the filter plate 5 filters the air entering the equipment, preventing dust, debris, etc., from entering and protecting the normal operation of the equipment. The anti-collision strip 2 set on the outer edge of the cover 1, being made of rubber, has good elasticity and cushioning performance. When the self-service equipment cover in the lobby is bumped... In the event of a collision, the anti-collision strip 2 can absorb the impact force, reducing damage to the equipment and improving its safety and service life. The rear of the cover 1 features a hinged maintenance door 3, which, along with an outer handle 4, allows staff to easily open the maintenance door 3 for inspection, maintenance, and troubleshooting, improving maintainability and reducing maintenance difficulty and cost. The maintenance door 3 contains an embedded filter plate 5, which effectively filters the air entering the equipment, keeping the interior clean and reducing the impact of dust and debris on internal components. This lowers the probability of equipment malfunctions due to dust accumulation and other issues, ensuring the equipment's longevity. Stable operation; the anti-collision strip 2 and the cover 1 are connected by a detachable connection method of clip 201, slot 101 and positioning block 202, which makes the installation and removal of the anti-collision strip 2 convenient. When the anti-collision strip 2 is damaged, it can be replaced in time, reducing maintenance costs. At the same time, this design also facilitates the overall cleaning and maintenance of the equipment cover; the positioning blocks 202 on both sides of the clip 201 are set at an angle and embedded in the slot 101. Utilizing the properties of rubber material, the connection between the anti-collision strip 2 and the cover 1 is more secure. During normal use of the equipment, the anti-collision strip 2 is not easy to fall off, ensuring the continuous effectiveness of the anti-collision protection function.

[0031] In this embodiment of the utility model, the maintenance door 3 has a through groove 301, and the filter plate 5 can be embedded in the through groove 301. The through groove 301 has a "U" shaped cross-section, and the filter plate 5 and the through groove 301 are detachably connected. The inner wall of the through groove 301 has a groove 302, and a rebound device 303 is embedded in the groove 302. A limiting block 6 is installed at the output end of the rebound device 303, and the rebound device 303 and the groove 302 are movably connected. Both the limiting block 6 and the rebound device 303 can be embedded in the groove 302. 2. Inside, the grooves 302 are movably connected; the top of the limiting block 6 is arc-shaped and the outer surface is made of rubber; a limiting groove 304 is opened on the outside of the maintenance door 3, the inside of the limiting groove 304 is arc-shaped, and a rotating rod 305 is fixedly installed inside the limiting groove 304; the rotating rod 305 passes through both sides of the handle 4, and the rotating rod 305 is movably connected to the handle 4; the handle 4 is arc-shaped and can be embedded in the limiting groove 304, and the handle 4 and the limiting groove 304 are rotatably connected;

[0032] Because the cross-section of the through groove 301 is U-shaped, when installing the filter plate 5, the filter plate 5 is aligned with the through groove 301 and inserted into it. After the filter plate 5 is inserted into place, the rebound device 303 installed in the groove 302 on the inner wall of the through groove 301 will be squeezed and deformed to a certain extent. As the filter plate 5 continues to be inserted, the rebound device 303 will pop out the limiting block 6 at its output end. The limiting block 6 will lock the filter plate 5, realizing the connection and fixation between the filter plate 5 and the through groove 301. When disassembling, a certain external force is applied to the filter plate 5, so that the limiting block 6 is squeezed and retracted back into the groove 302, thereby allowing the filter plate 5 to be removed from the through groove 301. The rebound device 303 is installed in the groove 302 and is movably connected to the groove 302. When the filter plate 5 is inserted into the through groove 301... At time 1, the edge of the filter plate 5 presses against the limiting block 6, causing the limiting block 6 and the rebounder 303 to move into the groove 302, compressing the rebounder 303. When the filter plate 5 is in place, the rebounder 303 returns to its original shape, popping out the limiting block 6. The top of the limiting block 6 is arc-shaped and its outer surface is made of rubber, which can make good contact with and hold the filter plate 5. At the same time, when the filter plate 5 is disassembled, the external force pulls the filter plate 5, which will cause the limiting block 6 and the rebounder 303 to retract into the groove 302. When it is necessary to open the maintenance door 3, hold the arc-shaped handle 4. Since the handle 4 is movably connected to the rotating rod 305 installed in the limiting groove 304 through the rotating rod 305, and the handle 4 can be embedded in the limiting groove 304 and rotate around the rotating rod 305, at this time, rotating the handle 4 Rotating handle 4 causes maintenance door 3 to rotate around the hinge, thus opening maintenance door 3. When closing maintenance door 3, rotating handle 4 causes it to engage with limiting groove 304. The arc-shaped structure of handle 4 and limiting groove 304 ensures that handle 4 is in a relatively stable position for easy opening next time. The detachable connection between filter plate 5 and through groove 301 allows for easy cleaning or replacement of filter plate 5 after a period of use. The U-shaped through groove 301 and the rebound device 303, combined with the design of limiting block 6, ensure the stability of filter plate 5 after installation, preventing it from loosening or falling off during equipment operation, and also facilitate disassembly, improving the convenience of equipment maintenance. The top of limiting block 6 is arc-shaped and its outer surface... Made of rubber, this design allows for better contact with the edges of the filter plate 5, increasing friction and improving the fixation effect. Simultaneously, the presence of the rebounder 303 enables the limit block 6 to automatically pop out and retract, further enhancing the reliability of the fixation and ensuring the filter plate 5 remains stable during equipment operation, effectively fulfilling its air filtration function. The handle 4 features an arc-shaped design, conforming to ergonomic principles, providing a comfortable grip for operators when operating the maintenance door 3, reducing hand fatigue. Furthermore, the handle 4 can be embedded within the limit groove 304, which is also arc-shaped. When the handle 4 is embedded, the overall appearance is cleaner and more aesthetically pleasing, while also preventing the handle 4 from protruding and causing collisions or obstructions when not in use.The movable connection between the lever 305 and the handle 4, and the rotational connection between the handle 4 and the limiting groove 304, allow the handle 4 to rotate flexibly during operation, facilitating the opening and closing of the maintenance door 3. Simultaneously, this design makes the entire structure more compact, minimizing space occupation and promoting the rational layout and use of equipment enclosures in spaces such as lobbies.

[0033] Working principle: For anti-collision protection, the inner locking strip 201 of the anti-collision strip 2 cooperates with the locking groove 101 on the front and inner side of the cover 1. During installation, the inclined positioning blocks 202 on both sides of the locking strip 201 utilize the elasticity of the rubber material to gradually slide into and lock into the locking groove 101 during the process of embedding, achieving a firm connection. During disassembly, external force causes the positioning blocks 202 to elastically deform and disengage from the locking groove 101, allowing the locking strip 201 to be pulled out. When the equipment encounters a collision, the rubber anti-collision strip 2 absorbs the impact force due to its good elastic deformation, reducing the risk of equipment damage. The design of the maintenance door 3 facilitates equipment maintenance. When the operator holds the outer arc-shaped handle 4, the handle 4 is movably connected to the rotating rod 305 inside the limiting groove 304 through the rotating rod 305. When the handle 4 is rotated around the rotating rod 305, it drives the maintenance door 3 to open around the hinge, realizing internal maintenance of the equipment. When closed, the handle 4 is embedded in the limiting groove 304, and its arc with the limiting groove 304 The design is ergonomic and comfortable to operate, with the handle 4 embedded in the limiting groove 304 when not in use. This design is aesthetically pleasing and avoids collisions and obstructions. The compact structure saves space. The filter plate 5 is installed in the through groove 301 inside the maintenance door 3. The through groove 301 is U-shaped. When installing the filter plate 5, it is embedded in the through groove 301 and presses the rebound device 303 in the groove 302 on the inner wall of the through groove 301. After the rebound device 303 deforms, it pops out the output end limiting block 6. The top of the limiting block 6 is arc-shaped and made of rubber, which fits tightly against the edge of the filter plate 5 and fixes it. When disassembling, the external force compresses the limiting block 6 back into the groove 302, and the filter plate 5 can be removed. When the equipment is running, the filter plate 5 filters the air, intercepts dust and debris, and prevents them from entering the equipment. This avoids faults such as poor heat dissipation and short circuits, ensuring stable operation of the equipment. The filter plate 5 is also detachable for easy cleaning and replacement, making maintenance efficient.
