Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of access control system technology, and more specifically, it relates to an identity recognition and monitoring device for a reproductive medicine center. Background Technology

[0002] The sperm collection room in a reproductive medicine center is a special functional area involving high privacy and strict biosample management. Currently, most sperm collection room doors use traditional mechanical locks, which cannot effectively identify and record the user's identity. Management mainly relies on patients manually locking the door and medical staff manually patrolling. This method is not only inefficient and consumes a lot of human resources, but it is also prone to blind spots in supervision. Once patrols are neglected, unauthorized personnel may accidentally or deliberately enter, leading to the mixing of sperm samples from different patients, causing irreversible medical accidents and serious ethical disputes.

[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, Chinese Patent No. CN211718946U discloses an abnormal warning device for a semen collection room. The key technical points of this device are: it includes an access control device, an emergency alarm device, a time indicator device, an electric lock, and a controller. The access control device, emergency alarm device, time indicator device, and electric lock are electrically connected to the controller. The access control device is located outside the semen collection room; the touch terminal of the emergency alarm device is located inside the semen collection room, and the alarm terminal is located outside the semen collection room; the warning terminal of the time indicator device is located outside the semen collection room; and the electric lock is located on the door of the semen collection room. The access control device collects the personal information of individuals preparing to enter the semen collection room and transmits it to the controller. The controller stores the personal information of volunteers and medical staff. When the personal information of an individual preparing to enter the semen collection room matches the personal information of a volunteer or medical staff member, the controller controls the electric lock to open. After the individual enters the semen collection room, the electric lock closes.

[0004] While the aforementioned technical solution can identify patients, it cannot communicate with the hospital's backend server, requiring personnel information to be pre-entered locally on the controller. This is cumbersome and costly to maintain. Furthermore, relying on a single verification method to control door lock opening poses a risk of identity theft or misidentification, making it difficult to completely prevent discrepancies between the person providing the sample and the actual person entering, potentially leading to sample confusion. On the other hand, the device's various functional components are scattered and poorly integrated, not only occupying space but also increasing the complexity of installation and maintenance.

[0005] Therefore, a new solution is needed to address this problem. Utility Model Content

[0006] In view of this, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an identity recognition and monitoring device for reproductive medicine centers, which has the advantages of high accuracy of identity authentication, simple and compact structure, and easy installation and maintenance.

Detailed Implementation

[0023] The technical solution of this utility model will now be clearly and completely described through specific embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0024] Please see Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 This application provides an identification and monitoring device for a reproductive medicine center, comprising an upper housing 2 and a lower housing 1 joined together. The lower housing 1 is fixed to the wall next to the sperm collection room door by expansion screws 6, and has mounting holes for the expansion screws 6 to pass through. The upper housing 2 integrates a barcode scanner for scanning patient identification QR codes, a facial recognition device for collecting and verifying patient facial information, a voice broadcast device for providing operation guidance and status prompts, and a status indicator module for displaying the room's usage status.

[0025] The scanning device can specifically be an ES808 or ES8220 barcode scanner; the face recognition device can specifically be an M5 face recognition terminal; the voice broadcast device can specifically be model LBE-LEE-M-00; the status indication module includes a support component and a first indicator light and a second indicator light mounted on the support component. The first indicator light indicates that the room is in use and can specifically be a red LED light; the second indicator light indicates that the room is not in use and can specifically be a green LED light. In another embodiment, the status indication module can also be a digital tube with a digital display function, displaying "1" to indicate the use status and displaying "0" to indicate the non-use status. It should be noted that the above device models are only examples, and appropriate models can be selected according to specific needs in actual applications, and should not be regarded as limitations on this utility model.

[0026] The upper housing 2 also houses a controller, preferably a microcontroller. A relay is connected to the electric lock of the semen collection room door, and the controller is electrically connected to the relay. The controller is also electrically connected to a barcode scanner, a facial recognition device, a voice broadcast device, and a status indicator module. The controller also has a communication module, specifically a Wi-Fi module, a 4G / 5G cellular module, or an Ethernet module, used for data interaction with the hospital's backend server and for outputting control signals based on the verification results of the facial recognition device to drive the electric lock of the semen collection room door. A power supply module is also included, with its input connected to an external power source and its outputs supplying power to the controller, barcode scanner, facial recognition device, and communication module.

[0027] There is a receiving space between the upper housing 2 and the lower housing 1. The controller, communication module and power supply module are integrated on a PCB board. The PCB board is fixed to the upper housing 2 located in the receiving space by a third screw. The upper housing 2 is provided with a screw connection post (not shown) for the third screw to connect.

[0028] The workflow of the aforementioned identity recognition monitoring device is as follows:

[0029] When a patient enters, their facial information is first collected through a facial recognition device. The controller then uploads this information to the hospital's backend server via a communication module for comparison. After successful verification, the patient proceeds to the scanning stage. The patient places a QR code or barcode containing the patient's identification information, provided by the hospital, in front of the scanning device. The controller sends the scanned information to the hospital's backend server for secondary verification. If the information is correct, the backend server records the start time of the procedure, and the controller simultaneously outputs a signal to open the electric lock, allowing the patient to enter. At this point, the status indicator module switches to the "in use" state, and the voice broadcast device issues corresponding operation prompts. When the patient leaves, they must scan the code again. The controller sends the scanned information to the hospital's backend server, records the end time of the procedure, and the facial recognition device will not be activated again during the scanning and departure process, according to preset program logic. Throughout the entire process, medical staff can access the hospital's backend server data in real time through the hospital information system to monitor and manage the usage status of the sperm collection room and the patient's entry and exit times.

[0030] In the above method, the communication module interacts with the hospital's backend server in real time. Patient identity information on the hospital's backend server can be directly synchronized to the controller of this utility model, eliminating the need for local pre-storage of patient information, effectively simplifying the workflow and reducing maintenance costs. By setting up a barcode scanning device and a facial recognition device, on the one hand, the opening of the sperm collection room door is controlled by dual verification of identity QR code and facial information, improving the accuracy and reliability of identity authentication. On the other hand, when the patient scans the code to enter, the start time of the project is automatically recorded in the hospital's backend. When leaving, scanning the code again marks the end, helping medical staff to accurately grasp the sampling timing and ensure the timeliness and accuracy of sample collection. By modularly integrating the barcode scanning device, facial recognition device, voice broadcast device, and status indicator module into the upper shell 2, the research and development and production cycle is effectively shortened, while making the overall structure compact, space-efficient, and easy to install and maintain.

[0031] The upper housing 2 has a protrusion 21 at its rear end, which extends along the length of the upper housing 2. The lower housing 1 has side plates 11 arranged opposite to each other on both sides, and an installation space is formed between the lower housing 1 and the two side plates 11 to accommodate the protrusion 21. The outer walls on both sides of the protrusion 21 are provided with slots 211 along the length of the protrusion. The side plates 11 are provided with snap-fit ​​parts 111 that are adapted to the slots 211. During installation, after the lower housing 1 is fixed to the wall, the slots 211 of the upper housing 2 are aligned with the snap-fit ​​parts 111 of the lower housing 1, and the upper housing 2 is pushed from top to bottom so that the snap-fit ​​parts 111 are completely snapped into the corresponding slots 211, thereby connecting the upper housing 2 and the lower housing 1. A top plate 22 extends from the top of the upper housing 2, covering and sealing the top opening of the lower housing 1, providing dust protection and shielding. A bottom plate 12 is provided at the bottom of the lower housing 1, abutting against the bottom of the upper housing 2. The bottom plate 12 and the lower housing 1 are connected and fixed by a first screw 4, offering the advantages of convenient and quick assembly and disassembly. A groove 23, matching the shape of the bottom plate 12, is provided at the bottom of the upper housing 2, allowing the bottom plate 12 to be embedded in the groove 23, achieving precise alignment and limiting of the upper housing 2 and the lower housing 1 at the bottom, enhancing overall rigidity and assembly integrity.

[0032] The upper housing 2 has, from top to bottom, a first mounting area 24 for mounting a status indicator module, a second mounting area 25 for mounting a barcode scanner, a third mounting area 26 for mounting a face recognition device, and a fourth mounting area 27 for mounting a voice broadcast device. The status indicator module, barcode scanner, and voice broadcast device are fixedly connected to the rear end of the upper housing 2 via second screws 5. A contact plate 28 extends from the rear end of the second mounting area 25 onto the upper housing 2, contacting the rear end of the face recognition device. The face recognition device is adhered and fixed to the contact plate 28. The first mounting area 24, second mounting area 25, and third mounting area 26 all extend to the front and rear ends of the upper housing 2, facilitating front-end sensing, display, and rear-end wiring and debugging. The fourth mounting area 27 only extends to the rear end of the upper housing 2. A sound outlet 29 is provided on the front surface of the upper housing 2 at a position opposite to the fourth mounting area 27. This ensures clear voice broadcast while effectively reducing the number of front openings, enhancing the device's dustproof and foreign object intrusion prevention capabilities, and improving overall protection.

[0033] The front end face of the upper housing 2 is provided with a transparent cover plate 3, which covers the first mounting area 24, the second mounting area 25 and the third mounting area 26, and can seal and isolate the first mounting area 24, the second mounting area 25 and the third mounting area 26 from the external environment.

[0034] The above description of the disclosed embodiments enables those skilled in the art to make or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not to be limited to the embodiments shown herein, but is to be accorded the widest scope consistent with the principles and novel features disclosed herein.
