Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of inductive toll collection equipment, specifically an inductive toll collection device. Background Technology

[0002] To facilitate payment collection at parking lot exits, contactless payment devices are often used. A utility model patent with patent application number CN202121345333.X discloses a contactless payment device for parking lots. It uses a sensor to detect vehicles and then activates a voice control module. If a vehicle is far from the payment box, the driver can control the device via voice. Through a telescopic mechanism, a lifting mechanism, and a left-right moving mechanism, the payment box can be moved closer to the driver, facilitating payment via QR code or cash. This is very convenient, as drivers don't need to lean out of the window or get out of the car, reducing risk and improving the user experience. However, according to the disclosed technical solution, existing contactless payment devices have two drawbacks. First, they cannot effectively adjust the distance to personnel based on factors such as vehicle size and parking distance, making card payment inconvenient. Second, vehicles entering and exiting the parking lot are prone to collisions with the payment device due to operator error, compromising the device's safety.

[0003] Therefore, how to design a sensor-based toll collection device has become a problem we need to solve. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an inductive charging device to solve the problems mentioned in the background technology. This utility model is reasonably designed, convenient to use, and suitable for installation in parking lots for parking fee collection.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an inductive toll collection device, comprising a toll collector and a support plate, wherein a fixing component is mounted on the support plate, the fixing component comprising a slip sleeve and a support sleeve, a protective component is mounted at the bottom of the support sleeve, the protective component comprising a base and a stop block, a lifting component is mounted on the slip sleeve, the lifting component comprising a lead screw and a lead sleeve, a moving component is mounted on the slip sleeve, the moving component comprising a screw and a slide rod, a driving component is mounted on the base and the slip sleeve, the driving component comprising a motor one and a motor two, and a toll collection component is mounted on the toll collector, the toll collection component comprising a sensing area and a scanning area.

[0006] Furthermore, the stop blocks are cast into both sides of the base, with the height of one end of the stop block being higher than the height of the other end, and the width of one end of the stop block being smaller than the width of the other end.

[0007] Furthermore, a groove is provided on the inner side of the base, the motor is installed on the inner side of the groove by bolts, and the bottom of the support is installed on the top of the base by bolts.

[0008] Furthermore, the bottom end of the lead screw is keyed to the output shaft of the motor, the support sleeve is fitted on the outside of the lead screw, the outer side of the bottom of the loop is locked on the inner wall of the support sleeve, and the top of the loop extends to the top of the support sleeve.

[0009] Furthermore, the top end of the threaded sleeve is welded to the inner wall of the top of the looper, the bottom end of the threaded sleeve passes through the bottom of the looper and extends to the outer side of the bottom of the looper, and the threaded sleeve is threaded onto the outer side of the lead screw.

[0010] Furthermore, one side of the toll collector is installed inside the loop, and the other side of the toll collector passes through the inner wall of the loop and extends to the outer side of the loop. The support plate is welded to the outer side of one side of the toll collector.

[0011] Furthermore, the support plate has a sliding opening, both ends of the sliding rod are welded to the inner wall of the sleeve, the sliding opening is fitted on the outer side of the sliding rod, the support plate has a threaded opening, the second motor is installed on the outer side of the sleeve by bolts, one end of the screw is keyed to the output shaft of the second motor, and the other end of the screw passes through the threaded opening and is installed on the inner wall of the sleeve by bearing.

[0012] Furthermore, the sensing area is installed at the bottom of the payment device, the scanning area is installed on the top of one side of the payment device, the payment device is equipped with buttons, and the other side of the payment device is equipped with a cash receiving port.

[0013] Beneficial effects: 1. When using this contactless toll collection device, during toll collection, personnel can move the vehicle to align themselves with the toll collector. The device senses the height and distance of the personnel through the sensing area to control motors one and two. Motor one pushes a threaded sleeve through a lead screw, which in turn moves a movable sleeve up and down on the top of the support sleeve, thus moving the toll collector up and down. Motor two pushes a screw through a screw thread, causing the support plate to slide through a sliding opening under the limit of the sliding rod, thus moving the toll collector on the top of the movable sleeve. This allows for adjustment of the distance between the toll collector and the personnel, facilitating payment using contactless cards. The device can flexibly adjust the distance to the personnel as needed, thus facilitating contactless card payment.

[0014] 2. When in use, this contactless payment device can accept card payments through the sensing area, QR code payments through the scanning area, and cash payments through the cash inlet, thus increasing the diversity of payment methods and facilitating parking payments for different groups of people. Blocks are installed on both sides of the base to prevent vehicles from directly impacting the support, loop, and payment device. The inclined surfaces on both sides of the blocks also help to dissipate force, effectively reducing the impact force between the vehicle and the blocks, extending the lifespan of the blocks, and minimizing vehicle damage, thereby ensuring the safety of both the payment equipment and the vehicle.

[0015] 3. This sensor-operated payment device is reasonably designed, highly efficient and convenient to use, and suitable for installation in parking lots for parking fee collection. Attached Figure Description

During operation, it allows for card payment via the sensing area 13, QR code payment via the scanning area 14, and cash payment via the cash inlet 16, thus increasing the variety of payment methods and accommodating different groups of parking users. Blocks 6 are installed on both sides of the base 5 to prevent vehicles from directly impacting the support sleeve 4, the slip ring 3, and the toll collector 1. The inclined surfaces on both sides of the blocks 6 also help to dissipate force, effectively reducing the impact force between the vehicle and the blocks 6, extending the lifespan of the blocks 6, and minimizing vehicle damage. This ensures the safety of both the toll collection equipment and the vehicle. During operation, personnel can move the vehicle to align themselves with the toll collector 1. The sensor area 13 senses the height and distance of the personnel and controls motors 7 and 10 to operate. Motor 7 pushes the threaded sleeve 9 through the lead screw 8. The threaded sleeve 9 drives the loop 3 to move up and down on the top of the support sleeve 4, thereby moving the toll collector 1 up and down. Motor 10 pushes the screw hole through the screw 11, causing the support plate 2 to slide through the sliding opening under the limit of the sliding rod 12, thereby moving the toll collector 1 on the top of the loop 3 to adjust the distance to the personnel, making it convenient for personnel to use the proximity card to pay. The distance to the personnel can be flexibly adjusted as needed, thus facilitating proximity card payment.
