[0030] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0031] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 This utility model provides an embodiment of a parking lot fast-pass control device for electronic payment, including a camera 1. A folding mechanism 2 is rotatably connected to the rear side of the outer wall of the camera 1. The folding mechanism 2 is used for fast passage. A lifting mechanism 3 is fixedly connected to the middle of the inner wall of the folding mechanism 2. The lifting mechanism 3 is used for height adjustment. The folding mechanism 2 includes a fixed shell 201, which is fixedly connected to the bottom of the outer wall of the camera 1. A fixed frame 205 is rotatably connected to the rear side of the inner wall of the fixed shell 201. A fixed rod 202 is slidably connected to the middle of the inner wall of the fixed frame 205. A folding rod 203 is rotatably connected to one end of the fixed rod 202, and a detector is fixedly connected to the other end of the fixed rod 202. The measuring and photographing device 204 has a drive assembly 206 rotatably connected to one side of the outer wall of the folding rod 203. The drive assembly 206 includes a motor 2061, which is fixedly connected to the top of the inner wall of the fixed housing 201. The output end of the motor 2061 is fixedly connected to a rotating rod 2062. A connecting rod 2063 is rotatably connected to one side of the outer wall of the rotating rod 2062. A fixing block 2064 is rotatably connected to the other side of the connecting rod 2063. The fixing block 2064 is fixedly connected to one end of the outer wall of the folding rod 203. A gear 2065 is rotatably connected to one side of the inner wall of the fixing rod 202. A rack 2066 is fixedly connected to the middle of the inner wall of the fixed frame 205. The rack 2066 meshes with the gear 2065.

[0032] Specifically, after the motor 2061 starts, the rotating rod 2062 drives the folding rod 203 to rotate, realizing the folding or unfolding action. The rotation of the folding rod 203 causes the fixed rod 202 to translate, and it is kept stable through the cooperation of the gear 2065 and the rack 2066. The adjustment of the folding mechanism 2 can quickly change the coverage of the detection camera 204 to adapt to different parking lot layouts and improve traffic efficiency. The lifting mechanism 3 adjusts the vertical height of the equipment to ensure that the camera 1 and the detection camera 204 are aligned with the best recognition position. The camera 1 and the detection camera 204 work together to identify license plate information in real time and transmit it to the back-end system. The folding mechanism 2 and the lifting mechanism 3 can respond quickly and realize the dynamic adjustment of the mechanical structure through the drive of the motor 2061, reducing manual intervention and shortening the vehicle passage time.

[0033] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 The lifting mechanism 3 includes a fixed frame 301, which is fixedly connected to the middle of the inner wall of the fixed housing 201.

A second fixed frame 304 is fixedly connected to one side of the outer wall of the moving rod 303. A second fixed plate 305 is fixedly connected to the top of the outer wall of the second fixed frame 304. Connecting components 306 are fixedly connected to the top left and right sides of the fixed frame 301. The connecting components 306 include... The lifting frame 3061 is fixedly connected to the top left and right sides of the moving rod 303. The top left and right sides of the fixed frame 301 are fixedly connected to electric push rods 3062. The output ends of the two electric push rods 3062 are fixedly connected to moving blocks 3064. The rear side of the outer wall of the moving block 3064 is fixedly connected to the connecting block 3063 and the bottom of the outer wall of the moving block 3064. The lifting frame 3061 is rotatably connected to the connecting block 3063 and the bottom of the outer wall of the moving block 3064. The lifting frame 3061 is fixedly connected to the top left and right sides of the fixed plate 305.

[0034] Specifically, when the lifting mechanism 3 is running, the fixed frame 301 is located in the middle of the inner wall of the fixed shell 201, and the bottom pad 302 provides buffering and support. After the electric push rod 3062 is started, it pushes the moving block 3064 and the connecting block 3063 to move. The connecting block 3063 is rotatably connected to the lifting frame 3061. The lifting frame 3061 is fixed on the top of the moving rod 303 and the top of the fixed plate 305. Under the traction of the moving block 3064, the lifting frame 3061 slides up and down in the fixed frame 301 in conjunction with the moving rod 303, realizing the lifting of the fixed frame 304, the fixed plate 305 and the connected components to meet different height requirements. The sliding cooperation between the moving rod 303 and the fixed frame 301 ensures the stability and guidance of the lifting process.

[0035] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3Lenses 4 are fixedly connected to both sides of the outer wall of the fixed housing 201. A fixing groove 7 is opened in the middle of the inner wall of the fixed housing 201. A baffle 6 is fixedly connected to the top of the outer wall of the camera 1. A rotating plate 5 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the outer wall of the camera 1. A foot support 8 is rotatably connected to one end of the outer wall of the folding rod 203. A foot pad 9 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the outer wall of the foot support 8. Multiple bolts 10 are threadedly connected to the upper and lower sides of the outer wall of the fixed frame 205. A nut 11 is threadedly connected to the rear side of the outer wall of the fixed frame 205. The nut 11 is threadedly connected to one side of the outer wall of the gear 2065.

[0036] Specifically, the lens 4 is fixed to both sides of the fixed housing 201, which can help the camera 1 obtain a wider field of view information. The fixing groove 7 on the inner wall of the fixed housing 201 is used to limit and fix the camera 1 and other components. The baffle 6 on the top of the camera 1 plays a protective role to prevent debris from falling in. The bottom rotating plate 5 allows the camera 1 to rotate at a certain angle to adjust the shooting direction. The folding rod 203 supports the equipment through the rotating foot support 8 and foot pad 9, which facilitates the placement and storage of the equipment in different scenarios. The unfolded foot support 8 can provide stable support, and the folding saves space. The fixed frame 205 is fixed by the bolt 10, nut 11 and gear 2065. After the motor 2061 in the drive assembly 206 is started, it drives the rotating rod 2062 to rotate. The rotating rod 2062 drives the fixed block 2064 to move through the connecting rod 2063, which in turn causes the gear 2065 to rotate. The gear 2065 meshes with the rack 2066 to convert the rotational motion into linear motion, driving the relevant components to realize folding, lifting and other actions to adapt to different usage needs.

[0037] Working principle: After the motor 2061 starts, it drives the rotating rod 2062 to rotate. The rotating rod 2062 pushes the fixed block 2064 through the connecting rod 2063, causing the folding rod 203 to rotate around the rear fulcrum of the inner wall of the fixed shell 201, realizing the folding or unfolding action. When the folding rod 203 rotates, it drives the fixed rod 202, which is slidably connected to it, to translate within the fixed frame 205. At the same time, the gear 2065 on the fixed rod 202 rolls along the rack 2066 in the fixed frame 205, keeping the fixed rod 202 stable during the translation process and simultaneously adjusting the angle and position of the detection camera 204. Through the unfolding and folding of the folding mechanism 2, the coverage area of ​​the detection camera 204 can be quickly adjusted, expanding the recognition area of ​​license plates for multi-lane vehicles and adapting to different parking situations. To meet the layout requirements of parking lots and improve rapid passage efficiency, the lifting mechanism 3 can adjust the vertical height of the entire device through the electric push rod 3062, so that the camera 1 and the detection camera 204 are aligned with the optimal recognition position, avoiding recognition errors caused by different vehicle types. During peak hours, the device can be raised to expand the field of view, or the height can be lowered to enhance recognition accuracy when special vehicles pass through. The camera 1 and the detection camera 204 work together to capture vehicle images in real time and recognize license plate information, and transmit the data to the back-end system for billing and release judgment. When the traffic flow changes or the recognition range needs to be adjusted, the folding mechanism 2 and the lifting mechanism 3 can respond quickly, and the mechanical structure can be dynamically adjusted through the motor 2061, reducing manual intervention and shortening vehicle passage time.

[0038] When the lifting mechanism 3 is running, the fixed frame 301 is fixed to the middle of the inner wall of the fixed shell 201. The pad 302 at the bottom of the frame provides cushioning and stable support. When the electric push rod 3062 is started, its output end pushes the moving block 3064 to move. The connecting block 3063 connected to the rear of the moving block 3064 moves accordingly. Since the connecting block 3063 is rotatably connected to the lifting frame 3061, and the lifting frame 3061 is fixed to the top of the moving rod 303 and the top of the fixed plate 305, under the traction of the moving block 3064, the lifting frame 3061 drives the moving rod 303 to slide up and down in the fixed frame 301 through the linkage of the rotating joint. This allows the fixed frame 304, the fixed plate 305 and the components connected to them to be raised and lowered to meet the needs of different heights. At the same time, the sliding cooperation between the moving rod 303 and the fixed frame 301 ensures the stability and guidance of the lifting process.

[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
