Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of tobacco industry training technology, and in particular to a charging and storage device for a cigarette identification testing machine terminal. Background Technology

[0002] In tobacco industry teaching and practical training, dedicated electronic cigarette identification testing terminals are typically used for students to conduct practical exercises and assessments in cigarette product identification. These devices require frequent charging and proper storage to ensure the smooth operation of teaching activities. Currently, the common practice is to use a universal charging strip and an individual USB charging head to power the terminal devices, and then store them in a standard storage box after class—a basic method of power and storage management.

[0003] However, existing charging and storage methods have several obvious drawbacks: First, charging cables, USB charging heads, and power strips are all exposed, making the cables prone to tangling, bending, and damage. Long-term use may lead to insulation layer breakage, posing a risk of short circuits, leakage, or even fire. Second, due to the limited number of ports on ordinary power strips, multiple devices often need to be charged in batches, which is cumbersome and time-consuming. In addition, purchasing multiple power strips and charging heads also wastes resources. Third, devices, cables, and charging accessories are randomly mixed in open storage spaces without fixed locations or identification labels. This not only easily leads to the misplacement or loss of devices but also affects the cleanliness and standardization of the practical environment, making it difficult to meet the high-standard management requirements of tobacco teaching venues. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, this application provides a charging and storage device for a cigarette identification testing machine terminal, the main purpose of which is to solve the technical problem that the existing charging and storage methods for cigarette identification testing machine terminals cannot meet the high-standard management requirements of tobacco teaching venues.

[0005] This application provides a charging and storage device for a cigarette identification testing machine terminal, comprising:

[0032] This application provides a charging and storage device for a cigarette identification testing machine terminal, comprising: a housing; multiple storage components disposed inside the housing; and a charging component disposed inside the housing, adjacent to the storage components. Based on the partitioned layout of the storage and charging components inside the housing, and in conjunction with the fixed connection structure of the charging cable in the cable storage compartment, this application achieves concealed storage of the terminal device, power module, and charging lines through physical isolation and integrated design, eliminating the risk of wear and short circuits caused by exposed and tangled cables. Simultaneously, the one-to-one correspondence between multi-port USB charging power supplies and storage compartments ensures simultaneous charging of multiple terminals, reducing time loss from batch operations and improving the efficiency and safety of equipment management in training facilities.

[0045] The teaching and training system for professionals in the tobacco industry covers several key aspects, including tobacco leaf grading, tobacco processing, cigarette making and packaging, sensory evaluation, and cigarette product identification. Among these, cigarette product identification ability is crucial for monopoly management, market supervision, and product quality control; it is a core skill for identifying counterfeit and substandard cigarettes, maintaining market order, and protecting consumer rights. To efficiently train and objectively assess trainees' ability to identify various cigarette packaging, printing, anti-counterfeiting features, and physical properties, cigarette identification testing terminals, i.e., wireless answering devices, are widely used in practical teaching and mock exams. These devices require frequent centralized charging and standardized storage before and after training to ensure the continuity of teaching activities and the integrity of the equipment. Therefore, the efficiency, safety, and standardization of their charging and storage management directly affect the teaching efficiency of the training room, the lifespan of the equipment, and the overall professional image of the environment.

[0046] See Figure 1 and Figure 3 The diagram shows a structural schematic of a charging and storage device for a cigarette identification testing machine terminal provided in an embodiment of this application, comprising:

[0047] Casing 1;

[0048] Storage components, there are multiple storage components, located inside the housing 1;

[0049] A charging component is located inside the housing 1 and is arranged adjacent to the storage component.

[0050] Storage compartment, located inside housing 1;

[0051] The power supply position is located inside the housing 1, and the power supply position is separated from the storage position.

[0052] In the above embodiments, the housing 1 constitutes the basic framework of this application, providing internal space to accommodate other components. Multiple storage components are disposed within the internal space of the housing 1, primarily serving to provide independent placement locations for multiple cigarette identification testing machine terminals, with each storage component corresponding to one terminal device. The charging component is also disposed within the internal space of the housing 1, and its position is arranged close to the storage components to facilitate charging operations for the terminal devices placed within the storage components. The spatially adjacent arrangement of the storage components and the charging component allows for convenient connection of the terminal devices to the charging component.

[0053] The housing 1 provides physical support and protection for the entire device. The arrangement of multiple storage components ensures that each cigarette identification testing machine terminal has its own dedicated storage space, preventing cluttered stacking of equipment. The charging components are positioned adjacent to the storage components, shortening the physical distance of the charging lines and providing a structural basis for convenient and efficient power connection to the terminal devices. This adjacent layout, integrating storage and charging functions within the housing, is a prerequisite for achieving orderly device management and centralized charging.

[0054] Furthermore, the device also includes:

[0055] The cable storage position is located inside the housing 1 and is connected to the storage position and the power supply position.

[0056] In the above embodiment, the interior of the housing 1 is divided into three main functional areas. First, a storage compartment is provided for centrally placing multiple cigarette identification testing machine terminals. Second, a power supply compartment is provided specifically for installing and fixing the power supply module; this area is isolated from the storage compartment. Finally, a cable storage compartment is provided at the bottom inside the housing 1 for orderly storage of charging cables; this cable storage compartment is connected to both the storage compartment and the power supply compartment through specific channels.

[0057] This partitioned setup allows terminal devices, power modules, and their connecting cables to each occupy their designated spaces without interfering with each other. Physical isolation effectively prevents unnecessary contact and friction between charging cables and power modules / terminal devices, significantly reducing the risk of wear and tear caused by haphazardly stacked, bent, or tangled cables. This reduces electrical safety hazards such as short circuits and leakage at the source, improving the overall safety and durability of the device.

[0058] Furthermore, the storage components include:

[0059] Partition 21, one end of partition 21 is connected to the inner wall end of housing 1, and the length of partition 21 is less than the width of housing 1.

[0060] In the above embodiment, the storage component is specifically constructed by setting a partition 21 inside the housing 1. One end of the partition 21 is firmly connected to the corresponding end of the inner wall of the housing 1, and its length is designed to be less than the width of the housing 1, thereby naturally forming a space for accommodating the terminal device between the partition 21 and the inner wall of the housing 1.

[0061] The partition 21 forms the basic structure of the storage compartment, providing each terminal device with an independent and clearly defined location. This structure effectively separates different terminal devices, preventing them from colliding or stacking during storage. This protects the appearance of the devices and lays the foundation for subsequent fixed-position labeling management of each storage compartment, making device management more orderly and convenient.

[0062] Furthermore, the storage components also include:

[0063] The limiting plate 22 is connected to the other end of the two partitions 21. The limiting plate 22 and the partitions 21 separate the interior of the housing 1 to form a storage space and a wire storage space.

[0064] Through hole 23 is formed on limit plate 22.

[0065] In the above embodiment, the storage component further includes a limiting plate 22 and a through hole 23. The two ends of the limiting plate 22 are respectively connected to the other ends of two adjacent partitions 21, i.e., the ends furthest from the inner wall of the housing 1. Through this connection method, the limiting plate 22 and the partitions 21 work together to clearly divide the internal space of the housing 1 into an upper storage compartment and a lower cable storage compartment. Simultaneously, a through hole 23 is provided on the limiting plate 22.

[0066] The limiting plate 22 not only enhances the structural stability of the storage compartment, but also, together with the partition 21, ensures a clear separation between the cable storage compartment and the storage compartment through the physical separation. The through-hole 23 on the limiting plate 22 provides a crucial channel, allowing the charging cable to orderly exit from the cable storage compartment and enter the storage compartment to connect to the terminal device. This ensures the standardization and controllability of the cable routing, preventing cables from being scattered haphazardly in the device storage area.

[0067] Furthermore, the charging components include:

[0068] There are multiple top plates 31, some of which are located on the inner wall of the housing 1 and some of which are located on the partition 21. The top plates 31 and the partition 21 separate the interior of the housing 1 to form a power supply position.

[0069] In the above embodiments, the structure of the charging assembly is mainly achieved by setting multiple top plates 31, specifically, there are two top plates 31. One top plate 31 is directly fixed to the inner wall of the housing 1, and the other is connected to the outer side of the outermost partition 21. Through the combined installation of the top plate 31 and the partition 21, a dedicated power supply position is defined and formed inside the housing 1, and the charging cable can pass through the gap between the two partitions 21.

[0070] The top plate 31 and the partition 21 together form the boundary of the power supply area, providing a physical barrier and mounting base for this area. This design ensures that the power module is stably and safely confined in a specific space isolated from the equipment storage area and the wiring storage area, avoiding damage to the power components due to accidental movement or external interference, and also facilitating centralized heat dissipation and management.

[0071] Furthermore, the charging components also include:

[0072] Power supply 32 is located between top plate 31 and housing 1;

[0073] There are multiple sockets 33 on the power supply 32. The sockets 33 are used to connect to the charging cable.

[0074] In the above embodiment, the charging assembly further includes a power supply 32 and sockets 33. The power supply 32 is specifically a multi-port USB charging module, and is securely mounted within the power supply space formed by the top plate 31 and the inner wall of the housing 1. Multiple sockets 33 are provided on the power supply 32; specifically, the sockets 33 are USB interfaces, and these sockets 33 are used to connect charging cables.

[0075] The multi-port USB charging module 32 is fixed in a dedicated power supply position, replacing the previously scattered individual charging heads and ordinary power strips. Its integrated design provides ample charging interfaces to match the number of terminal devices. The multiple sockets 33 allow all terminal devices to be charged simultaneously without batch operation, greatly improving charging efficiency and saving operation time, while also eliminating the resource waste caused by using multiple independent charging accessories.

[0076] Furthermore, the device also includes:

[0077] There are multiple charging cables. One end of the charging cable is connected to the socket 33, and the other end passes through the through hole 23 and is placed in the storage position.

[0078] In the above embodiments, this application also includes a number of charging cables that match the number of storage positions and sockets 33. One end of each charging cable is connected to the socket 33 corresponding to the power supply 32, and the other end passes through the through hole 23 on the limiting plate 22, and finally extends and is fixedly installed in the corresponding storage position.

[0079] Each storage compartment is equipped with a dedicated charging cable, and its fixed path is defined from the power supply position, through the gap in the top plate 31 to the cable storage compartment, then through the through hole 23 to reach the storage compartment. This design ensures that each charging cable has its own dedicated position and route, completely eliminating the possibility of charging cables tangling inside or outside the device. The fixed connection method not only simplifies operation—simply plugging and unplugging the device at the storage compartment—but also minimizes cable movement and wear, extending its lifespan and improving ease of use.

[0080] Furthermore, the number of storage compartments, charging cables, and sockets 33 are the same.

[0081] In the above embodiments, the number of storage compartments, charging cables, and sockets 33 on the power supply 32 remains the same.

[0082] This one-to-one correspondence is the foundation of the efficient operation of this application. It ensures that each storage compartment is equipped with a dedicated charging cable and power interface, allowing all terminal devices to be connected to a power source for charging simultaneously without waiting or taking turns. This achieves true centralized synchronous charging management, significantly improving the efficiency and convenience of device charging management.

[0083] See Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 The diagram shows a schematic representation of the cover plate provided in an embodiment of this application. Further, the device also includes:

[0084] Cover plate 4 is connected to housing 1 and covers the wire storage position;

[0085] Heat dissipation hole 5 is located on the housing 1 inside the power supply position.

[0086] In the above embodiment, the device further includes a cover plate 4 and heat dissipation holes 5. The cover plate 4 is connected to the housing 1 by a hinge, snap-fit, or similar means, and its size and position are designed to cover the wire storage position. Multiple heat dissipation holes 5 are provided on the wall surface of the housing 1 corresponding to the power supply position area.

[0087] Cover plate 4 covers the cable storage area, completely concealing the internally stored charging cables. This not only makes the device look cleaner and more aesthetically pleasing, but more importantly, it effectively prevents dust, foreign objects from entering, or accidental contact with the cables. The heat dissipation holes 5 directly correspond to the power supply area, providing necessary ventilation and heat dissipation channels for the power module. This promptly dissipates heat generated during charging, preventing heat buildup that could degrade component performance or cause safety hazards, thus ensuring the stability and safety of the device during long-term charging.

[0088] Furthermore, the device also includes:

[0089] Socket 6 is located on the housing 1 within the wire storage position;

[0090] The plug passes through socket 6 and connects to power supply 32.

[0091] In the above embodiments, this application also includes a socket 6 and a plug. A main power supply socket 6 is provided on the wall of the housing 1 in the cable storage area. The matching power plug passes through this socket 6 and is electrically connected to the power supply 32 installed in the power supply position.

[0092] The external power supply interface socket 6 is located in the cable storage area and connects to the internal power module via a dedicated plug. This design allows the entire external power supply line, including the plug and cable, to be neatly stored within the cable storage area and concealed by the cover plate 4 after connection. This minimizes exposed cables on the outside of the device, leaving only one main power cable leading out, greatly improving the cleanliness and safety of the device's exterior and meeting the high management standards required for training facilities. Furthermore, the unified power supply inlet simplifies the operation of turning the equipment on and off.

[0093] This application provides a structural schematic diagram of a cigarette identification testing machine terminal charging and storage device, which includes: a housing 1; multiple storage components disposed inside the housing 1; and a charging component disposed inside the housing 1, with the charging component and the storage component arranged adjacent to each other.

[0094] This application, based on the partitioned layout of storage and charging components inside the casing, and the fixed connection structure of the charging cable in the cable storage position, achieves concealed storage of terminal equipment, power modules, and charging lines through physical isolation and integrated design, eliminating the risk of wear and short circuits caused by exposed and tangled cables; at the same time, by utilizing the one-to-one correspondence between multi-port USB charging power supplies and storage positions, it ensures the ability to charge multiple terminals simultaneously, reduces the time loss of batch operations, and improves the efficiency and safety of equipment management in training sites.
