Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of service terminal structures, and in particular to an interference-resistant opening and closing structure for a service terminal locker. Background Technology
[0002] Self-service terminals are electronic devices that enable self-service operations through intelligent human-computer interfaces. They are commonly found in places such as banks, subways, hospitals, government service halls, and supermarkets. Typical devices include ATMs, subway ticket vending machines, medical registration and payment machines, bank queuing machines, and coupon query and printing machines.
[0003] In existing technologies, these service terminals, structurally speaking, mainly include a display section, an operation section, and a material storage section. The material storage section is used to store various printed papers, currency, etc., and typically consists of a storage cabinet with a locking mechanism and a door opening mechanism. The existing terminal storage cabinets use traditional hinge installation methods for their door opening structure, which limits the maximum opening angle. The confined space is not conducive to operation, and maintenance personnel can only perform maintenance within a limited space.
[0004] In view of this, this technical solution proposes an anti-interference opening and closing structure for service terminal lockers. By using a reverse-mounted hinge, the locker door can rotate more than 180° around the edge of the locker after it is opened, which increases the operating space. Moreover, the overall assembly is simple and does not require too many changes to the existing structure. Utility Model Content
[0005] The present invention aims to at least partially solve one of the technical problems in the related technologies. Therefore, the main objective of this invention is to provide an interference-resistant opening and closing structure for service terminal storage cabinets, aiming to solve the problems of limited opening angle, small opening space, and inconvenient maintenance in existing service terminal storage cabinets.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides an interference-resistant opening and closing structure for a service terminal locker, comprising a service terminal main body equipped with a locker assembly.
[0007] The locker assembly consists of a cabinet body, cabinet doors, and a reverse hinge mechanism.
[0008] The reverse hinge mechanism includes a first hinge component disposed on one side of the inner frame of the cabinet door, the first hinge component having a first fixing hole, and a first bushing disposed on the first hinge component near the edge of the cabinet body. A second hinge component is disposed on the side frame of one side of the cabinet body, the second hinge component having a second fixing hole corresponding to the first fixing hole, and a second bushing disposed on the second hinge component near the edge of the cabinet body, corresponding to the first bushing.
[0009] The locker assembly achieves a large-angle rotational opening and closing action through the cooperation of the locker body, locker door and the reverse hinge mechanism.
[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the first hinge is located in a groove formed on one side of the inner frame, and the two ends of the groove form stops for limiting the position.
[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model, at least three of the first hinge and the second hinge are arranged longitudinally on the inner frame and the side frame, respectively.
[0012] As a further improvement of this utility model, the number of the first fixing hole and the second fixing hole on each hinge is at least three.
[0013] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the number of the first bushing and the second bushing on each hinge is at least two, and they are arranged in a longitudinally staggered manner.
[0014] As a further improvement of this utility model, the top of the cabinet door is provided with an operation panel that extends toward the main body of the service terminal.
[0015] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0016] This solution installs the first and second hinge components on the inner frame edge of the cabinet door and the side frame edge of the cabinet body, respectively. This creates an external rotation axis between the first and second bushings, resolving the interference problem caused by the cabinet thickness in traditional hinges. This allows for unobstructed opening and closing of over 180°, more than doubling the maintenance space. The first hinge component is embedded in the cabinet door groove and limited by a stop block, achieving both a concealed aesthetic and ensuring the component remains stable over long-term use. At least three vertically arranged hinge components, along with at least three fixing holes, create multiple stress points, significantly enhancing load-bearing stability. The staggered arrangement of at least two bushings ensures smoother and more stable rotation, preventing jamming. The overall solution achieves advantages in opening and closing freedom, structural strength, and durability without significantly altering the original cabinet structure. Attached Figure Description

[0027] [Explanation of Markings on Main Components / Assemblies]
[0028] label name label name 1 Service terminal main body 1020 tank 10 Locker components 1021 First hinge 100 cabinet 1022 First bushing 1000 Side frame 1023 First fastener 101 cabinet doors 1024 stop 1010 Inner frame 1025 Second hinge 1011 Operation panel 1026 Second bushing 102 Reverse hinge mechanism 1027 Second fixing hole Detailed Implementation
[0029] as follows:
[0030] Please see the appendix Figure 1-9 ,
[0031] Traditional hinges can open to about 90 degrees after assembly. This solution achieves more than 180 degrees of rotation by externally placing the bushing, which increases the operating space for maintenance personnel by more than two times and can also avoid collisions with the main body of the equipment (1). This solution completely retains the original cabinet (100) structure and only changes the hinge assembly form.
[0032] Specifically, a first hinge (1021) with a first fixing hole (1023) and a first bushing (1022) is installed on one edge of the inner frame (1010) of the cabinet door (101). A second hinge (1025) with a second fixing hole (1027) and a second bushing (1026) is installed on the edge of the side frame (1000) of the cabinet body (100). During assembly, the first hinge (1021) and the second hinge (1025) are aligned by their bushings and connected by inserting a shaft. At the same time, they are fixed to the inner frame (1010) of the cabinet door (101) and the side frame (1000) of the cabinet body (100) with screws through their respective first fixing holes (1023) and second fixing holes (1027). The first bushing (1022) and the second bushing (1026) are both positioned near the outermost edge of the hinge assembly, close to the cabinet body (100) or the cabinet door (101). After assembly, the axis of rotation of the entire cabinet door (101) is moved to the outermost edge of the cabinet body (100) and the cabinet door (101) structure. This ensures that no matter how thick the cabinet body (100) and the cabinet door (101) are designed, when the cabinet door (101) rotates and opens around this external axis, the edge of the cabinet door (101) will no longer collide with or get stuck on the edge of the cabinet body (100) or the side frame (1000) (anti-interference). Therefore, the cabinet door (101) can easily rotate and open and close at a very large angle around the edge of the cabinet (100), far exceeding the 90 degrees that ordinary hinges can usually only open. It can easily achieve an opening and closing of more than 180 degrees, greatly expanding the operation and maintenance space. Moreover, it is entirely based on the existing cabinet (100) and cabinet door (101) structure, and is only achieved by changing the installation position and method of the hinges. The assembly process is not complicated.
[0033] Reference Appendix Figure 1 , 26. A preferred embodiment of this utility model: Preferably, the first hinge (1021) of this solution is set inside a specially opened groove (1020) on one side of the inner frame (1010) of the cabinet door (101), realizing the hidden installation of the hinge, making the entire hinge mechanism more concise and beautiful in use. The naturally formed blocks (1024) at both ends of the groove (1020) play a limiting role. That is, when the first hinge (1021) is installed in this groove (1020), the blocks (1024) at both ends are like two clips, which just lock the position of the first hinge (1021) from the front and back sides. Whether in the daily use of frequent opening and closing of the cabinet door (101) or in the vibration that may be encountered during transportation or maintenance, the blocks at both ends of the groove (1020) (1024) can effectively prevent the first hinge (1021) from sliding or shifting inside the groove (1020), ensuring that the first hinge (1021) and the first bushing (1022) on it are always in the correct position, thereby making the shaft connecting the first bushing (1022) and the second bushing (1026) work more stably and reliably, and the entire reverse hinge mechanism (102) runs more smoothly, is less prone to misalignment or jamming, and improves the durability of the structure and the reliability of the opening and closing action.
[0034] Reference Appendix Figure 6 , 8 In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, at least three first hinges (1021) are arranged longitudinally on one side of the inner frame (1010) of the cabinet door (101), and at least three second hinges (1025) are also arranged longitudinally on the side frame (1000) of the cabinet body (100). The even distribution at multiple points improves the stability and load-bearing capacity of the entire reverse hinge mechanism (102). Since multiple hinges are arranged sequentially at intervals in the height direction, they share the weight generated when the cabinet door (101) is opened and closed, avoiding excessive load on a single hinge and resulting in local deformation or loosening.
[0035] In this way, whether the cabinet door (101) is frequently opened and closed or loaded with heavy items, the cabinet door (101) can be rotated smoothly and without shaking or shifting, reducing wear and tear and the risk of failure, while extending the service life of the overall structure.
[0036] Reference Appendix Figure 6 , 8In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, preferably, the first fixing hole (1023) and the second fixing hole (1027) of this solution are provided with at least 3 fixing holes on each hinge to improve the connection stability between the hinge and the inner frame (1010) of the cabinet door (101) or the side frame (1000) of the cabinet body (100). More screws can be used to evenly lock the hinge to the cabinet body (100) structure, effectively dispersing the vibration and tension generated when the cabinet door (101) is opened and closed.
[0037] Reference Appendix Figure 6 , 8 In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the first bushing (1022) and the second bushing (1026) can be at least two, and these bushings are arranged in an alternating pattern along the longitudinal direction to improve the rotational stability and anti-jamming performance of the entire reverse hinge mechanism (102), and to provide additional support points during rotation to prevent individual bushings from being overloaded and deformed. The alternating arrangement makes the opening and closing action smoother, reduces noise and wear, extends service life, and makes maintenance simpler and more reliable.
[0038] Reference Appendix Figure 6 In a preferred embodiment of this utility model, due to the setting of the reverse hinge mechanism (102), the cabinet door (101) in this solution can integrate a large-sized operation panel (1011) on the top. When opened, the operation panel (1011) on the top can also move along with it because it can be opened at a large angle. There is no need to set the panel on the terminal body (1), which simplifies the assembly process of the entire service terminal body (1).
[0039] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. All equivalent structural transformations made based on the present utility model's technical concept and the contents of the present utility model's technical solution specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
