Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of book lending machines, and more specifically, to a book lending machine that can be used for quick insertion and removal of external cards and external visual signal lights. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of smart cities and public cultural services, smart book lending machines have become important facilities in public places such as libraries, communities, and schools. These devices enable unmanned self-service book lending and returning. Their core function relies on stable and reliable data communication. In order to record and transmit the lending and returning status of each book to the central management system in real time, and to receive backend instructions in case of abnormalities, the lending machine usually integrates a dedicated communication device (such as a 4G / 5G communication module, Wi-Fi module, etc.).

[0003] This communicator plays a crucial role in data interaction with a remote backend server. To ensure that no data loss occurs in the event of poor network signal or brief interruption, existing communicators are generally equipped with external storage expansion interfaces (such as TF card slots). Local data is cached by inserting an external memory card and then re-uploaded after the network is restored, thereby ensuring the integrity and continuity of the data.

[0004] However, the current common installation methods for communication devices have many inconveniences and hidden dangers. First, due to considerations of the overall layout of the equipment and signal reception, communication devices are usually fixedly installed at the top of the cabinet or in other deep locations. This installation method results in extremely limited operating space for maintenance personnel when they need to perform routine maintenance (such as replacing memory cards or restarting equipment) or troubleshooting. The replacement process is cumbersome and difficult, which greatly reduces maintenance efficiency and increases labor costs.

[0005] Secondly, in some usage scenarios, multiple borrowing cabinets are often densely deployed in a limited space. When the communicator of one of the cabinets malfunctions (such as signal interruption, full memory card, or module failure) and triggers a local alarm, the alarm indication (such as flashing LEDs) is usually limited to an inconspicuous location inside the device or on the surface. Maintenance personnel cannot locate the faulty device intuitively and quickly from the outside during inspections, which can easily cause delays in fault handling. As a result, the data of that device cannot be uploaded for a long time, affecting the real-time performance and accuracy of backend management, and the user experience also declines.

[0006] Furthermore, due to varying needs across different projects or time periods, the communication devices used may differ significantly in specifications, dimensions, and interface types. Existing communication device installation structures are often designed for specific models, lacking versatility and adaptability. When replacing or upgrading communication devices, it is often necessary to remodel or drill holes within the cabinet, resulting in extremely poor installation flexibility and increasing the cost and time required for equipment upgrades.

[0007] Therefore, the existing installation design of the intelligent book lending machine communicator has obvious defects in terms of maintainability, fault detection, and installation adaptability. It is necessary to make innovative improvements to the installation structure of the existing communicator and design an installation scheme that is easy to operate, easy to detect faults, and can flexibly adapt to different specifications of communicators in order to improve operation and maintenance efficiency, ensure stable system operation, and reduce life cycle costs. Therefore, it is necessary to propose a book lending machine that can quickly insert and remove external cards and external visual signal lights to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0018] Furthermore, the communication device mounting base is provided with quick-release grip holes, which facilitates the quick installation and removal of the communication device.

[0019] Furthermore, it also includes flip hinges and cover plates;

[0020] The hinge is installed on the main body of the book lending machine. The cover can be flipped to cover the outside of the card exchange hole via the hinge. The hinge and the cover can cover the card exchange hole and reduce dust from entering the main body of the book lending machine.

[0021] Furthermore, a first magnetic absorbing piece is provided at the edge of the shielding piece, and an edge-binding ring is provided on the outside of the card-changing hole for attracting the first magnetic absorbing piece. With the first magnetic absorbing piece and the edge-binding ring, the shielding piece can be easily attached to the outside of the card-changing hole.

[0022] Furthermore, the edging ring is made of iron. In practical applications, the edging ring can also be made of other materials, which are all alternatives that are easy for those skilled in the art to conceive of.

[0023] Furthermore, the shield is provided with a gripping protrusion, which is an integral structure with the shield. The integral shield and gripping protrusion can effectively simplify the structure of the shield, and the gripping protrusion can also facilitate the opening of the shield.

[0024] Furthermore, the visual communication through-hole is equipped with glass, which serves to prevent dust and water damage. The visual signal light can also be transmitted through the glass, allowing maintenance personnel to quickly identify abnormal situations in the book lending machine.
