Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of rail transit technology, and more specifically, to an anti-jamming structure for a ticket recycling module. Background Technology

[0002] Against the backdrop of the rapid development of the rail transit industry, the Automatic Fare Collection (AFC) system, as a crucial link in passenger travel, directly impacts passenger experience and operational efficiency through its operational stability. Tickets, as the core medium for passenger fare calculation in the AFC system, whether traditional contactless IC cards or temporary single-journey tickets, require collection, counting, and recycling through a ticket collection module. Especially during peak hours, some stations' ticket collection modules can process thousands of tickets per day.

[0003] When passengers exit a subway station, they need to insert their tickets into the card collection slot of the turnstile for identification and collection before the gate opens. However, due to human error or accidental physical compression, tickets are prone to bending. Bending tickets entering the collection module can easily cause jamming, severely delaying passenger passage. Therefore, we propose an anti-jamming structure for the ticket collection module. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, adapt to the needs of reality, and provide an anti-jamming structure for a ticket recycling module to solve the technical problem that bent tickets entering the recycling module can easily cause jamming and delays in passage.

[0005] To solve the above technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an anti-jamming structure for a ticket recycling module, comprising an installation mechanism and a conveying mechanism disposed within the installation mechanism. The installation mechanism includes a front fixed plate and a rear fixed plate, both of which are provided with connecting plates connected by bolts. The conveying mechanism includes a squeezing roller, a conveying roller, a driving wheel, and a driven wheel symmetrically rotatably mounted between the front and rear fixed plates. A conveyor belt is disposed between the driving wheel and the driven wheel. A straightening component is fixedly disposed on the front of the rear fixed plate, located between the squeezing roller and the conveying roller. The straightening component includes symmetrically arranged outer straightening plates and inner straightening plates disposed within the outer straightening plates.

[0006] Preferably, the rear fixing plate is provided with an array of mounting plates, the mounting plates are bent into a Z-shape, and the mounting plates are provided with mounting holes.

[0007] Preferably, the shaft of the extrusion roller extends to the back of the rear fixed plate and is provided with a gear and a first pulley, the gears meshing with each other, and a motor is also provided on the back of the rear fixed plate, the output shaft of the motor being connected to the shaft of one of the gears.

[0008] Preferably, the shaft of the conveying roller extends to the back of the rear fixed plate and is provided with a second pulley and a third pulley; the shaft of the driving wheel extends to the back of the rear fixed plate and is provided with a fourth pulley and a fifth pulley; the shaft of the driven wheel extends to the back of the rear fixed plate and is provided with a sixth pulley; and a transmission belt is provided between the second pulley and the first pulley, between the third pulley and the fourth pulley, and between the fifth pulley and the sixth pulley.

[0009] Preferably, the external correction plate includes a first guide portion, a first correction portion and a first outlet portion in sequence along the long axis direction. The first correction portion is bent into a semi-circular arc along the long axis direction, and both the first guide portion and the first outlet portion are bent outward into an arc shape.

[0010] Preferably, the inner correction plate includes a guide portion, a second correction portion, and a horizontal portion in sequence along its long axis. The guide portion is curved outward in an arc shape, and the guide portion and the first outlet portion form an oblique outlet. The second correction portion is curved along its long axis in a semi-circular arc shape. A semi-circular correction channel is formed between the first correction portion and the second correction portion. The first guide portion forms a wide angle at the entrance of the correction channel. A second guide portion that curves outward is provided at the connection between the second correction portion and the horizontal portion. A normal channel is formed between the horizontal portions, and the second guide portion forms a wide angle at the entrance of the normal channel.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0012] 1. This utility model, through the design of the correction component structure, features an outerly curved first guide portion of the outer correction plate forming a wide-angle inlet. This actively captures tickets with different bending directions (upward or downward) and smoothly guides them into a semi-circular correction channel composed of the first correction portion (semi-circular arc) and the second correction portion (semi-circular arc) of the inner correction plate. This channel, through reverse bending constraint, can physically correct the bent tickets, restoring them to flatness or significantly reducing the bending amplitude, thus preventing jamming during subsequent transport due to abnormal ticket shape. Simultaneously, the second guide portion of the inner correction plate also adopts an outerly curved design, creating a wide-angle inlet ordinary channel for tickets with no or slight bending, ensuring that tickets of all shapes and sizes can pass through in an orderly manner. The parallel design of the ordinary channel and the correction channel further improves ticket passage efficiency, reduces manual intervention costs, and fundamentally solves the jamming problem caused by bent tickets in traditional recycling modules. Especially during peak hours, it can prevent passenger passage delays, ensure the operational efficiency of the AFC system, and solve the problem that bent tickets entering the recycling module easily cause jamming and delays.

[0013] 2. This utility model also incorporates a rear fixed plate and a front fixed plate structure. The rear fixed plate is designed for the overall installation of the device, while the front fixed plate connects to the rear fixed plate to support the rotating shafts of various components. The front fixed plate is detachably connected to the rear fixed plate via connecting plate bolts. When malfunctions such as ticket jamming or wear of the straightening components occur inside the module, the front fixed plate can be removed simply by unscrewing the bolts on the connecting plate, directly exposing the internal components such as the squeezing roller, straightening components, and conveying roller. This eliminates the need to disassemble the entire module, significantly simplifying the maintenance process, reducing the impact on the normal operation of the turnstile, and facilitating the maintenance and repair of the recycling module.

Detailed Implementation

[0021] like Figures 1 to 6As shown, the present invention relates to an anti-jamming structure for a ticket recycling module, comprising an installation mechanism 100 and a conveying mechanism 200 disposed within the installation mechanism 100. The installation mechanism 100 includes a front fixed plate 102 and a rear fixed plate 101, both of which are provided with connecting plates 104 connected by bolts. The conveying mechanism 200 includes a squeezing roller 201, a conveying roller 203, a driving wheel 204, and a driven wheel 205 symmetrically rotatably mounted between the front fixed plate 102 and the rear fixed plate 101. A conveyor belt 206 is disposed between the driving wheel 204 and the driven wheel 205. A straightening member 202 is fixedly disposed on the front of the rear fixed plate 101, located between the squeezing roller 201 and the conveying roller 203. The straightening member 202 includes an outer straightening plate 301 symmetrically arranged and an inner straightening plate 302 disposed within the outer straightening plate 301. This utility model, through the wide-angle inlet of the straightening component 202 and the semi-circular straightening channel 3014, can guide and straighten bent tickets, and also provide a normal channel for normal tickets, ensuring orderly passage of tickets. In addition, the front and rear fixing plates can be detached and connected, which facilitates maintenance, improves the operating efficiency of the AFC system, and reduces passenger passage delays during peak hours.

[0022] Specifically, mounting plates 103 are arrayed on the rear fixing plate 101. The mounting plates 103 are bent into a Z-shape and have mounting holes. The mounting plates 103 are used for the installation of the recycling module. Furthermore, the bending of the mounting plates 103 provides sufficient space between the drive structure and the inner wall of the gate, facilitating the installation of the recycling module.

[0023] Furthermore, the shaft of the compression roller 201 extends to the back of the rear fixed plate 101, where a gear 207 and a first pulley 209 are provided. The gears 207 are meshed together. A motor 208 is also provided on the back of the rear fixed plate 101, and the output shaft of the motor 208 is connected to the shaft of one of the gears 207. The meshing gears 207 ensure that the two compression rollers 201 rotate synchronously in opposite directions, thereby applying a uniform squeezing force to the incoming tickets, thus enabling the tickets to be conveyed backward. The motor 208 drives the compression rollers 201 to rotate by driving the gears 207, providing power for the conveying of the tickets. The first pulley is provided to prepare for the subsequent power transmission with the conveying roller 203, realizing the continuous transmission of power.

[0024] It is worth noting that the shaft of the conveyor roller 203 extends to the back of the rear fixed plate 101 and is provided with a second pulley 210 and a third pulley 211. The shaft of the drive wheel 204 extends to the back of the rear fixed plate 101 and is provided with a fourth pulley 212 and a fifth pulley 213. The shaft of the driven wheel 205 extends to the back of the rear fixed plate 101 and is provided with a sixth pulley 214. A drive belt is provided between the second pulley 210 and the first pulley 209, between the third pulley 211 and the fourth pulley 212, and between the fifth pulley 213 and the sixth pulley 214. The combination of multiple pulleys and drive belts forms a complete power transmission system, enabling the power generated by the motor 208 to be transmitted sequentially to the squeezing roller 201, conveying roller 203, driving pulley 204, and driven pulley 205. This ensures that all components in the entire conveying mechanism 200 operate synchronously, preventing ticket jams or accumulation during the conveying process due to different component speeds. The system features smooth transmission and low noise, ensuring the stability of the ticket recycling module during operation.

[0025] It is worth mentioning that the external correction plate 301 includes a first guide part 3011, a first correction part 3012 and a first outlet part 3013 in sequence along the long axis. The first correction part 3012 is bent into a semi-circular arc along the long axis, and the first guide part 3011 and the first outlet part 3013 are both bent outward into an arc. The outwardly curved first guide part 3011 can expand the inlet range of the correction channel 3014. After the curved ticket enters, it can be guided and smoothly guided into the correction channel 3014. The upwardly curved ticket can enter the upper correction channel 3014, and the downwardly curved ticket can enter the lower correction channel 3014. The correction channel 3014, which is composed of the semi-circular first correction part 3012 and the second correction part 3021, can perform reverse bending correction on the curved ticket. Through the constraint of the arc surface, the curved ticket is restored to flatness. Similarly, the outwardly curved first outlet part 3013 can guide the corrected ticket smoothly into the subsequent conveying stage, avoiding collision or jamming of the ticket at the outlet.

[0026] It is worth noting that the inner correction plate 302 includes, in sequence along its long axis, a guide portion 3023, a second correction portion 3021, and a horizontal portion 3022. The guide portion 3023 is curved outward in an arc shape, and the guide portion 3023 and the first outlet portion 3013 form an oblique outlet. The second correction portion 3021 is curved along its long axis in a semi-circular arc shape. The first correction portion 3012 and the second correction portion 3021 form a semi-circular correction channel 3014. The first guide portion 3011 forms a wide angle at the entrance of the correction channel 3014. A second guide portion 3024 that is curved outward is provided at the connection between the second correction portion 3021 and the horizontal portion 3022. A normal channel 3025 is formed between the horizontal portions 3022, and the second guide portion 3024 forms a wide angle at the entrance of the normal channel 3025. The inclined outlet formed by the guide section 3023 and the first outlet section 3013 can guide the ticket card to exit and enter the next stage through the inclined outlet. The semi-circular correction channel 3014 is composed of the first correction section 3012 and the second correction section 3021. It can bend the bent ticket card in the reverse direction, thereby correcting the bent ticket card. The corrected ticket card is bent to a smaller extent or completely corrected, preventing jamming in the subsequent recycling and conveying stage. If the ticket card is not bent or the bending is small, it will not affect the subsequent recycling and conveying and will be smoothly conveyed into the ordinary channel 3025. The wide-angle design of the ordinary channel 3025 inlet can ensure that the ticket card can smoothly enter the ordinary channel 3025 when the bending is small.

[0027] Working Principle: This embodiment provides an anti-jamming structure for a ticket card recycling module. In use, the entire anti-jamming structure is first installed at the designated position on the rail transit turnstile using a mounting plate 103 with a Z-shaped bend and mounting holes on the rear fixing plate 101. The Z-shaped mounting plate 103 provides sufficient space between the drive structure and the inner wall of the turnstile for easy installation. After installation, when a passenger inserts their ticket into the turnstile's recycling slot, the motor 208 on the back of the rear fixing plate 101 is activated. The output shaft of the motor 208 drives one of the connected gears 207 to rotate. Because the gears 207 on the back of the two squeezing rollers 201 mesh with each other, the two squeezing rollers 201 rotate synchronously in opposite directions. The system applies uniform pressure to the inserted ticket card, conveying it backward. Simultaneously, the first pulley 209 on the shaft of the compression roller 201 drives the second pulley 210 on the shaft of the conveyor roller 203 to rotate via a transmission belt, thereby causing the conveyor roller 203 to rotate synchronously. The third pulley 211 on the shaft of the conveyor roller 203 drives the fourth pulley 212 on the shaft of the drive wheel 204 to rotate via a transmission belt, causing the drive wheel 204 to rotate accordingly. The fifth pulley 213 on the shaft of the drive wheel 204 then drives the sixth pulley 214 on the shaft of the driven wheel 205 to rotate via a transmission belt, ultimately achieving synchronous rotation of the drive wheel 204 and the driven wheel 205, thus maintaining a stable conveying state on the conveyor belt 206 between them.The ticket enters the straightening member 202 located between the squeezing roller 201 and the conveying roller 203 under the conveying action of the squeezing roller 201. If the ticket has a significant bend, the first guide part 3011 of the outer straightening plate 301 in the straightening member 202 bends outward to form a wide-angle inlet, guiding the bent ticket into the semi-circular straightening channel 3014 formed by the first straightening part 3012 of the outer straightening plate 301 (semi-circular along the long axis) and the second straightening part 3021 of the inner straightening plate 302 (semi-circular along the long axis). The bent ticket is then reverse-bent and straightened by the constraint of the semi-circular channel. After straightening, the ticket is then guided by the oblique outlet formed by the first outlet part 3013 of the outer straightening plate 301 bending outward and the guide part 3023 of the inner straightening plate 302 bending outward, and smoothly conveyed to the conveying roller 203. During the straightening and conveying process, when the front end of the ticket is discharged to the conveying roller 203... When the ticket is between 0 and 3, the rear end of the ticket is just separated from the squeezing rollers 201, preventing the ticket from being without conveying power in the straightening channel 3014. If the ticket is not bent or the bending is small, it will not affect the subsequent recycling and conveying. Under the conveying of the squeezing rollers 201, the ticket will be guided by the second guide part 3024 (which bends outward at the connection between the second straightening part 3021 and the horizontal part 3022 on the inner straightening plate 302, forming a wide angle at the entrance of the ordinary channel 3025 formed between the horizontal parts 3022) and smoothly enter the ordinary channel 3025. Afterwards, whether the ticket has been straightened by the straightening channel 3014 or the ticket has been conveyed by the ordinary channel 3025, it will reach the conveyor belt 206 under the further conveying action of the conveying rollers 203. The conveyor belt 206 will stably convey and recycle the ticket, effectively avoiding the jamming problem caused by bent tickets, ensuring a smooth ticket recycling process, and improving passenger passage efficiency.
