Detailed Implementation

[0026] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. The preferred embodiments of the present invention are shown in the accompanying drawings. The purpose of the accompanying drawings is to supplement the description of the textual part of the specification with graphics, so that people can intuitively and vividly understand each technical feature and the overall technical solution of the present invention, but they should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0027] like Figure 1 As shown, the intelligent license plate endorsement system for electric bicycles includes: an endorsement device and a reversing storage rack 6, which is located at the discharge end of the endorsement device. The endorsement device includes: a main body 1 and an intelligent conveying unit 2, a camera unit 3, a laser printing unit 4, an industrial host, and a touch screen 5 integrated on the main body 1. The intelligent conveying unit 2, the camera unit 3, the laser printing unit 4, and the touch screen 5 are electrically connected to the industrial host.

[0028] like Figure 2As shown, the intelligent conveying unit 2 is installed on the mounting platform 11 of the main body 1, the touch screen 5 is located on the surface of the cabinet at the top of the main body 1, the camera unit 3 and the laser printing unit 4 are located in the cabinet at the top of the main body 1, and the industrial host (not shown in the figure) is located in the cabinet at the bottom of the main body 1.

[0029] The license plate is conveyed by intelligent conveying unit 2, then sequentially passes through camera unit 3 and laser printing unit 4. Camera unit 3 is a camera that captures real-time images of the finished license plate information and transmits them to the industrial host via network information interaction technology. The industrial host uses machine vision neural network recognition technology to intelligently and accurately identify the license plate number and generate a unique identifier for each license plate. Laser printing unit 4 then engraves this identifier onto the license plate. Laser printing unit 4 is an existing module, and its specific structure will not be described in detail here.

[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, a V-shaped support 62 is formed in the reversible storage rack 6. A guide structure 61 is provided on one side of the V-shaped support 62. The guide structure 61 is aligned with and inclined to the synchronous conveyor belt 22 on the same side, with the higher end closer to the synchronous conveyor belt 22. When the license plate that has been signed reaches the upper end of the guide structure 61 via the intelligent conveying unit 2, only one side is on the guide structure 61. As it is conveyed downward by the guide structure 61, the other side is driven by gravity to reverse and fall onto the support 62. Due to the limitation of the structure of the V-shaped support 62 itself, the falling license plates can be stacked together sequentially, which is convenient for subsequent packing. In this application, the guide structure 61 is preferably a pulley system. The reverse side of the license plate in the V-shaped support 62 faces upward to prevent the falling license plate from scratching the front of the license plate below.

[0031] Preferably, in this application, a barcode scanner (not shown in the figure) is mounted on the reversible storage rack 6, and the barcode scanner is connected to the industrial host for data communication. When the number tags on the reversible storage rack 6 are being packed, the barcode scanner can scan the box number barcode and transmit it to the touch screen 5 and the industrial host for display and storage, facilitating later traceability.

[0032] like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the intelligent conveying unit 2 includes two side plates 21 disposed opposite to the mounting platform 11 of the main body 1. Synchronous conveyor belts 22 are respectively installed on the inner sides of the side plates 21. At least one side plate 21 is movably mounted on the mounting platform 11. Specifically, the mounting platform 11 has elongated mounting holes 12 extending in the front-to-back direction. The lower end of one side plate 21 is fixedly connected to the mounting platform 11 via a connecting plate 211 and bolts passing through the mounting holes 12. Therefore, the width of the intelligent conveying unit 2 can be adjusted as needed to label different sizes of license plates, thus increasing its versatility. The mounting holes 12 can be integral or discontinuous.

[0033] like Figure 4 As shown, a preparatory station and an annotation station are set between the inlet and outlet ends of the synchronous conveyor belt 22. The preparatory station is located below the camera unit 3, and the annotation station is located below the laser printing unit 4. When the license plate arrives at the preparatory station, it is paused and photographed by the camera unit 3. The camera unit 3 can also temporarily store the license plate while it is being annotated at the annotation station to prevent excess license plates from flowing in and interfering with the work.

[0034] Specifically, the preparatory station includes a first blocking cylinder 231. The output rod of the first blocking cylinder 231 is connected to a first baffle 232. The first baffle 232 is initially raised, and when the license plate is delivered to the preparatory station, it is blocked by the first baffle 232. Upstream of the first baffle 232 are a first sensor 233 and a second sensor 234 for detecting whether there is a license plate at the preparatory station. When the second sensor 234 detects a license plate, the camera unit 3 takes a picture. After taking the picture, the first baffle 232 lowers to allow the license plate to continue moving forward, and then raises again after a certain time.

[0035] However, once the photo is taken, if there is a number plate being signed at the signing station and the first sensor 233 detects a number plate at the preparation station, the first baffle 232 will remain raised until the number plate at the signing station is signed, at which point it will lower to allow the number plate at the preparation station to pass through, preventing excess number plates from flowing in and interfering with the work.

[0036] The endorsement station includes a second blocking cylinder 241. The output rod of the second blocking cylinder 241 is connected to a second baffle 242. The initial state of the second baffle 242 is raised, and the license plate is blocked when it is conveyed to the endorsement station. Upstream of the second baffle 242, there is a third sensor 243 for detecting whether there is a license plate at the endorsement station and a clamping device for fixing the license plate. When the third sensor 243 detects a license plate, it drives the clamping device to clamp the license plate, and then the laser printing unit 4 endorses the license plate. After the endorsement is completed, the second baffle 242 lowers to release the license plate and continues to move forward. After a certain time, it is raised again.

[0037] Preferably, the first sensor 233, the second sensor 234 and the third sensor 243 are all diffuse reflection photoelectric sensors.

[0038] The clamping device includes an upper clamping cylinder 244 and a limiting plate 245 mounted on the side plate 21. The top plate and the limiting plate 245, which are connected to the output rod of the upper clamping cylinder 244, are located on the upper and lower sides of the synchronous conveyor belt 22, respectively. The top plate is initially in a downward state. When the third sensor 243 detects the license plate, the upper clamping cylinder drives the top plate to rise, cooperating with the upper limiting plate 245 to clamp the license plate.

[0039] To prevent license plate movement during the endorsement process, the endorsement station also includes a fourth sensor 246 for detecting whether the license plate is clamped and fixed. The laser printing unit 4 will only endorse the license plate when it is securely fixed. Preferably, the fourth sensor 246 is a proximity sensor, meaning that when the proximity sensor does not detect a signal, it is determined that the license plate is clamped and fixed, and the laser printing unit 4 endorses it.

[0040] The aforementioned clamping devices are installed on both side plates 21 of the intelligent conveying unit 2. The upper clamping cylinders 244 on both sides operate simultaneously to ensure the stability of the license plate fixing process. Since the size of the electric bicycle license plate is small, the overall length of the limiting plate 245 does not need to be too long. To reduce the complexity of installing the limiting plate 245, it is preferred in this application that both limiting plates 245 are integral flat structures, which are convenient for overall installation, simple in structure, and easy to maintain.

[0041] This utility model's intelligent license plate endorsement system for electric bicycles, by incorporating an intelligent conveying unit, a camera unit, a laser printing unit, and a reversible storage rack, can automatically identify and endorse license plates, storing the information. It can be integrated into automated production lines, reducing the workload of workers. The industrial host stores various production information to form a production database, enabling traceability of information throughout the entire production cycle of electric bicycle license plates.
