[0002] The dual-scanning weighing and settlement station for rapid meal preparation in the canteen is a device that integrates dual-scale design, barcode recognition, high-precision weighing, and intelligent settlement functions. It can simultaneously handle the weighing and pricing needs of dishes with two different prices, effectively improving the efficiency of canteen meal preparation and reducing operating costs.

[0003] In existing technologies, most canteens rely on manual operation to clean the placement table after the meal preparation and settlement equipment has been used. Staff need to use cleaning tools, such as rags, to repeatedly wipe the surface of the placement table to remove food residue, oil stains, and other attachments. This method is not only inefficient, but also wastes a lot of time during peak meal times when a large number of devices are waiting to be cleaned, affecting subsequent use and disrupting the canteen's operational rhythm. In addition, frequent manual contact with the placement table and cleaning tools increases the risk of cross-contamination, especially when handling raw and cooked food. Therefore, those skilled in the art provide a dual-scanning weighing and settlement table for rapid meal preparation in canteens to solve the problems mentioned in the background technology.

[0017] It should be noted that the fixed brackets 2 on both sides of the food preparation table 1 firmly support the display panel 3, making it easy for customers to clearly view the food preparation information and scan the code to pay, thus improving payment efficiency. The placement platform 6 set on the base plate 7 is specially designed for trays, effectively preventing trays from slipping during the food preparation process and ensuring safe and orderly food preparation. The cleaning mechanism 5 is arranged on both sides of the outer wall of the placement platform 6, which can quickly and effectively remove debris and residual food from the top of the placement platform 6, keeping the table surface clean and hygienic, avoiding the risk of cross-contamination caused by a dirty table surface, and providing customers with a healthier and safer dining environment.

[0018] As one implementation method in this embodiment, please refer to Figure 3 - Figure 5As shown, the cleaning mechanism 5 includes a placement box 51 and a storage box 52, which are fixedly connected to the outer walls of the placement platform 6 respectively. The interior of the storage box 52 is sloped to the edge of the placement platform 6. A placement box 53 is placed at the bottom of the placement box 51. Electric slide rails 8 are fixedly connected to both sides of the outer wall of the base plate 7. Auxiliary connecting brackets 58 are fixedly connected to the sliding ends of the two electric slide rails 8. Side mounting brackets 56 are fixedly connected to the top of the two auxiliary connecting brackets 58. A top plate 54 is fixedly connected to the top of the side of the two side mounting brackets 56 that are close to each other. Three sets of electric clamps 55 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the top plate 54 to hold the cleaning cloth inside the placement box 53. A scraper 57 is fixedly connected to the side of the top plate 54 away from the placement platform 6. The clamping ends of the three sets of electric clamps 55 are located at the discharge port of the placement box 53.

[0019] It should be noted that the placement box 51 and the storage box 52 are located on opposite sides of the placement platform 6. The sloping design inside the storage box 52 allows the cleaned debris to slide naturally into the box for easy centralized processing. The placement box 53 is slidably fitted inside the placement box 51, allowing the cleaning cloth to be removed and replaced at any time to ensure cleaning effectiveness. The electric slide rail 8 drives the auxiliary connecting frame 58 to move, thereby driving the side mounting frame 56 and the top plate 54 to move horizontally as a whole, realizing the automation of the cleaning action. The three sets of electric clamps 55 at the bottom of the top plate 54 precisely clamp the cleaning cloth to efficiently wipe the placement platform 6, and the clamping end is located at the discharge port of the placement box 53, which facilitates the quick replacement of the cleaning cloth. The scraper 57 is fixed to one side of the top plate 54 and scrapes away stubborn stains on the placement platform 6 as the top plate 54 moves. When used in conjunction with the cleaning cloth, the cleaning effect is even better.

[0020] As one implementation method in this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, two weighing devices 9 are symmetrically embedded at the top of the food preparation table 1. Each of the two weighing devices 9 has a food preparation box 4 placed on its top. The two food preparation boxes 4 are located below the display panel 3. The outer wall of the food preparation table 1 is fixedly connected to the first scanning dock 10 and the second scanning dock 11 above the placement table 6. The first scanning dock 10 is used to scan the QR code on the tray, and the second scanning dock 11 is used to pay the customer's payment code. Pull rings are rotatably sleeved on both sides of the outer wall of the two food preparation boxes 4. The cleaning cloths inside the placement box 53 are stacked in an alternating manner.

[0021] It should be noted that the two weighing devices 9 symmetrically arranged at the top of the food preparation station 1 can accurately weigh the food placed in the food preparation box 4, ensuring that the amount of food taken by customers is accurate and avoiding waste or shortage. The food preparation box 4 is located below the display panel 3, which makes it convenient for customers to intuitively view the food information and weight when scanning the code, improving the transparency of food preparation. The first scanning dock 10 and the second scanning dock 11 on the outer wall have a clear division of labor. The first scanning dock 10 quickly scans the QR code on the tray to confirm the food information, while the second scanning dock 11 quickly reads the customer's payment code to complete the payment. The dual scanning design greatly shortens the settlement time and improves the efficiency of canteen operation. The rotating pull rings on both sides of the outer wall of the food preparation box 4 make it easy for staff to move the food preparation box and flexibly adjust its position to meet different food preparation needs. The cleaning cloths inside the placement box 53 are stacked in an alternating manner, which not only saves space, but also ensures that the cleaning cloths are dry and clean each time they are taken out, providing a strong guarantee for cleaning the placement station 6 and effectively maintaining the hygiene and cleanliness of the food preparation environment.

[0022] Working principle: The cleaning mechanism 5 is set to achieve efficient table cleaning. After all the equipment is used, the user starts the electric slide rails 8 on both sides of the base plate 7. The two sets of electric slide rails 8 synchronously drive the auxiliary connecting frame 58 to drive the side mounting frame 56 and the top plate 54 to move in a straight line. The three sets of electric clamps 55 set under the top plate 54 clamp the staggered stacked cleaning cloth in the placement box 53 in the placement box 51. During the movement, the cleaning cloth is gradually pulled out from the discharge port of the placement box 53. Since the cleaning cloth is located below it, the end of the scraper 57 on the outside of the top plate 54 will press tightly against the surface of the cleaning cloth. During the movement, the downward pressure effectively scrapes away food residue and attachments on the surface of the placement table 6. After use, the cleaning cloth falls directly into the storage box 52, which is sloping against the edge of the placement table 6, achieving automatic collection. The weighing device 9 at the top of the food preparation table 1 works with the food preparation box 4 to accurately weigh the food. The display panel 3 displays the information in real time. The first scanning dock 10 and the second scanning dock 11 on the outer wall realize the tray QR code recognition and payment code payment respectively. The tray has a QR code printed on it. When the user uses the tray, he places it on the placement table 6 and it can be scanned by the first scanning dock 10. When taking the food, the weight inside 4 changes, so the amount of food taken will be displayed on the display panel 3. At the same time, the first scanning dock 10 records the food, and the second scanning dock 11 can directly scan the mobile phone payment code to realize quick payment. The pull rings on both sides of the first food preparation box 4 make it easy to move and adjust. The entire cleaning process does not require manual contact with the countertop, which ensures hygiene and improves efficiency. The tissue box design of the cleaning cloth ensures continuous cloth supply and realizes fully automated cleaning.

[0023] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it.
