[0017] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. The drawings are simplified schematic diagrams, illustrating only the basic structure of the present invention, and therefore only show the components relevant to the present invention.
[0018] An RFID-based vehicle tool cabinet includes a main unit layer 1 and multiple storage layers 2, which are stacked one on top of the storage layers 2. The main unit layer 1 is stacked above the top storage layer 2. The main unit layer 1 is equipped with a processor, a power supply module, a heat dissipation module, an interactive screen 3, and a camera 4. Each storage layer 2 is equipped with an RFID identification board 5, which is connected to the main unit layer 1 for communication and power supply via a wiring harness. Tools are stored in the storage layers 2, and each tool is fixedly attached with an RFID chip. The RFID identification board 5 identifies the RFID chip, and the main unit layer 1 performs statistics on the identification results and displays the statistics on the interactive screen 3.
[0019] Each storage layer 2 includes a cabinet 21, beams 22, columns 23, a flip door 24, and a shelf assembly. Multiple beams 22 are symmetrically and horizontally fixed on the left and right side walls of the cabinet 21. Two sets of columns 23 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right inner side walls of the cabinet 21. Each set contains two vertically fixed columns 23. The shelf assembly is pulled out and installed at any height between the two sets of columns 23. Any number of shelf assemblies can be installed in each storage layer 2 as needed. Each shelf assembly is equipped with an RFID identification plate 5.
[0020] The shelf assembly includes a shelf tray 25, a support plate 27, and two pull-out slide rails 26. The support plate 27 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the shelf tray 25. The pull-out sections of the two pull-out slide rails 26 are fixedly installed on the left and right side walls of the shelf tray 25. The fixed ends of the two pull-out slide rails 26 are respectively fixedly connected to two sets of columns 23. The RFID identification plate 5 is fixedly installed on the lower end of the shelf tray 25. Tools are placed on the support plate 27. The RFID identification plate 5 performs non-contact identification of the tools. The identification result is transmitted to the host layer 1 through the communication harness. Each shelf tray 25 is fixedly installed with a handle on the side facing the flip door 24 to facilitate the user to pull out the shelf assembly.
[0021] The placement plate assembly also includes multiple limiting rods. Each of the support plates 27 has multiple holes in a grid pattern on its bearing surface. The limiting rods are movably inserted into the holes and surround and intercept the outer edge of the tool.
[0022] The interactive screen 3 is a touch screen, and the camera 4 performs facial recognition for administrators to achieve security protection. The camera 4 performs facial recognition, and only those who are verified correctly can operate the interactive screen 3. If the verification fails, the interactive screen 3 cannot be operated.
[0023] The cabinet body 21 and the flip door 24 are both assembled from aluminum profiles. The supporting frame of the cabinet body 21 is assembled from aluminum profiles. The cabinet panels and door panels are embedded in the grooves of the aluminum profiles. The crossbeam 22 and the column 23 are both made of aluminum profiles. The shelf assembly is fixedly connected to the column 23 by bolts and T-nuts that match the aluminum profiles. The shelf assembly can be flexibly adjusted in height on the column 23.
[0024] A door handle is fixedly installed on the flip door 24, making it easy for users to open the flip door 24 to retrieve and put away tools. A rotary lock is installed on the flip door 24. Handles are fixedly installed on the outer walls of the main unit layer 1 and each storage layer 2 to facilitate stacking and shelving operations.
[0025] The host layer 1 and storage layer 2 have the same structure. No shelf assembly is needed in the host layer 1; the processor and other components can be directly fixed within the cabinet 21 of the host layer 1. Each cabinet 21 of the storage layer 2 has a wiring hole. The connecting wires of the RFID identification board 5 and the host layer 1 are connected through these holes. The interactive screen 3 and camera 4 are both installed on the flip door 24 of the host layer 1. The processor, power supply module, heat dissipation module, interactive screen 3, camera 4, RFID identification board 5, RFID chip, and other components are all purchased externally. The appropriate components are selected and assembled according to actual needs. This step can be performed by computer professionals.
[0026] Working principle: In each storage layer 2, a shelf assembly is installed according to the number and volume of tools to be stored. The shelf assembly can be flexibly adjusted in height on the column 23. An appropriate number of limit rods are inserted into the support plate 27 at appropriate positions. The tools are placed in the approximate outline of the tools surrounded by the limit rods. The bumps during vehicle movement and the start and stop of the vehicle will not cause the tools to slip out of the outline surrounded by the limit rods.
[0027] The RFID identification board 5 installed at the bottom of each shelf assembly identifies the tools placed on the tray 27 of that shelf assembly. The RFID identification board 5 is connected to the host layer 1 via a wiring harness. The identified information is transmitted to the processor of the host layer 1 via the wiring harness. The processor is connected to the interactive screen 3 for data transmission, that is, the identified information is displayed on the interactive screen 3.
[0028] A camera 4 is installed on the host layer 1. Users can perform facial recognition through the camera 4. After facial recognition verification, users can operate the interactive screen 3 to view information and check whether the tools have been properly stored. At the same time, they can find the location of the required tools based on the information displayed on the interactive screen 3.
[0029] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model and is not intended to limit the utility model. Various modifications and variations can be made to this utility model by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
