[0028] Example
[0029] See Figures 1-4 This embodiment provides a universal testing platform compatible with multiple devices, including a rectangular frame body 1 and an L-shaped bracket 2. The L-shaped bracket 2 is fixedly installed at the upper edge of the rectangular frame body 1. The rectangular frame body 1 serves as the load-bearing structure of the entire platform. It includes four support rods, with adjacent support rods fixedly connected by several crossbars, enhancing the tightness between the support rods and strengthening the support capacity of the rectangular frame body 1. Movable casters are installed at the bottom of the rectangular frame body 1 for easy movement.
[0030] To enable integrated installation and testing of different types of self-service terminal devices, screen brackets 6 are fixedly installed on the two arms of adjacent sides of the L-shaped bracket 2. The screen brackets 6 are used to mount at least one display screen 7. By mounting the display screen 7 on the top L-shaped bracket 2, it is easy to operate and install the display screen 7, allowing for unobstructed testing and viewing. Simultaneously, a camera mounting mechanism 5 is also installed on the L-shaped bracket 2. The camera mounting mechanism 5 is located behind the screen bracket 6 on the long side of the L-shaped bracket 2 and is used to mount camera equipment for unobstructed camera testing.
[0031] The rectangular frame body 1 has a mounting position for a document scanner 8 on its side away from the diagonal of the L-shaped bracket 2, for fixed installation of the document scanner 8. Furthermore, some self-service terminals are equipped with a microphone 9 for voice communication with customer service. To enable testing of the microphone 9, the front surface of the L-shaped bracket 2 of this universal testing platform can be fixedly mounted on the microphone 9 for easy removal and ergonomic design.
[0032] A planar testing platform 3 is provided on the upper surface of the rectangular frame body 1, and multiple testing platforms 4 are sequentially arranged below the planar testing platform 3. The planar testing platform 3 has embedded mounting positions for contactless card readers 31 and / or QR code recognition devices 32 and / or numeric keypads 33. These mounting positions are located at the front end of the planar testing platform 3 and away from the diagonal of the L-shaped bracket 2. The planar testing platform 3, with its embedded installation of contactless card readers, QR code recognition devices, and numeric keypads, serves as the uppermost operating surface, allowing testers and users to easily access the devices for contactless card reading and writing operations. Its centralized location facilitates operation.
[0033] In a specific implementation, the detection platform below the planar detection platform 3 has at least three layers, and each detection platform 4 has at least one equipment mounting position. These mounting positions include a receipt printing device mounting position, a second-generation ID card recognition device mounting position, a semi-inserted card reader mounting position, a printer mounting position, and a banknote machine mounting position. The receipt printing device mounting position and the second-generation ID card recognition device mounting position are both located at the front end of the detection platform 4, allowing for direct receipt printing or card insertion operations, which is convenient and quick.
[0034] To facilitate the installation and replacement of equipment on each testing platform 4, the testing platform 4 is a movable shelf with pull rails on its side, which can pull the testing platform 4 out from the rectangular frame body 1, increasing the operating space.
[0035] To enable this general-purpose testing platform to perform operational tests on different types of equipment, it also includes a multi-functional interface module 10, a central control module, a data processing module, a communication module, and a power supply module. Each module is installed on a separate testing platform. Specifically, the multi-functional interface module 10 is embedded in the planar testing platform 3, the central control module and data processing module are installed at the rear end of the second-layer testing platform 4, and the power supply module is installed at the rear end of the third-layer testing platform 4. The central control module is electrically connected to the multi-functional interface module 10, the data processing module, the communication module, and the power supply module, respectively. The multi-functional interface module 10 is electrically connected to the data processing module.
[0036] The multi-functional interface module 10 integrates various types of interfaces, including but not limited to USB interface, RS232 interface, and Ethernet interface, which can be adapted and connected to the interfaces of different types of devices installed on each layer of the test station 4 to realize data transmission and power supply operation between the devices and the general-purpose test platform.
[0037] The central control module controls the testing operation of this general-purpose test platform. It sends control commands to different types of devices via the multi-functional interface module 10 for device testing and adjustment. The data processing module collects and processes data transmitted from different types of devices during testing, and parses, converts, and stores data in different formats. The communication module enables communication between the test platform and external devices or systems, supporting both wireless and wired communication methods to facilitate remote transmission and sharing of test data. The power supply module provides a stable power supply to the entire test platform and connected devices, meeting the power supply requirements of different devices.
