Description

Contactless secure seizure device for classified materials Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to a device for seizing classified materials, specifically, a contactless device that ensures the accuracy, reliability, and safety of the entire process of seizing classified materials without any leakage. Background Technology

[0002] Because classified media (such as paper classified documents, CDs, USB flash drives, hard drives, etc. that store classified information) contain a large amount of classified information, the consequences of a leak would be extremely serious. Therefore, in accordance with the requirements of the national secrecy system, it is necessary to strictly control the people who come into contact with classified media, the scope of contact, and the degree of knowledge of classified information. Technical issues

[0003] Currently, the management of classified materials in all units strictly requires that they be stored by designated personnel, such as the holder of the classified materials, the director of the confidentiality office, or the confidentiality officer, at specific times and locations. When classified materials need to be destroyed, the holder of the classified materials, the director of the confidentiality office, or the confidentiality officer delivers them to the destruction center, where they are registered, collected, and destroyed; or, the director of the confidentiality office or the confidentiality officer entrusts a designated person to deliver them to the destruction center, where they are registered, collected, and destroyed. Although the entire process is strictly carried out in accordance with confidentiality regulations, it involves at least three people, such as the holder of the classified materials, the director of the confidentiality office, or the confidentiality officer, and the personnel at the destruction center responsible for registration, collection, or destruction. This poses a risk that classified information may be stolen or that classified materials may be switched. For example, the delivery personnel may scan the code to register the classified materials being delivered, but the materials actually delivered to the destruction center are not the classified materials being delivered, indicating that the classified materials have been switched; or, the materials delivered to the destruction center may indeed be classified materials being delivered, but during the entire delivery process, the classified information may be stolen by personnel who have handled them or the materials may have been switched.

[0004] In some major leaks of classified information both domestically and internationally (such as swapping classified documents or keeping classified documents privately), personnel with access to classified information (such as holders of classified documents or leaders or specialists of classified information offices) were involved. Relying solely on security education and personnel quality cannot guarantee the security of classified documents. Therefore, it is necessary to mitigate risks through technical means. Technical solutions

[0005] In view of the above reasons, the purpose of this invention is to provide a contactless secure collection device for classified materials. The holder of the classified materials, or the director or specialist of the confidentiality office, directly connects to the secure collection device of this invention. Within a fully enclosed space, the collection device directly completes the anti-fraud scanning registration and collection process, preventing the classified materials from being touched by others during the collection process and avoiding the risk of the classified materials being swapped or the classified information being stolen after scanning, collecting, registering, and confirming the collection.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: a contactless classified carrier security collection device, which includes a feeding box and a collection cabinet, the two being fixedly connected by internal bolts;

[0007] The feeding box is used for contactless QR code registration and collection of classified materials;

[0008] The collection cabinet is used to store or destroy classified materials. The cabinet door is equipped with a combination lock, and a camera is installed inside the cabinet.

[0009] The feeding box includes a box body, a barcode scanning operation module, and a flip-plate material dispensing module;

[0010] The box is a box with a front opening. The top of the box has a feeding port that is only for classified carriers to pass through. Below the feeding port is an inwardly recessed cavity. When the classified carrier is fed into the feeding port, it falls backward into the inwardly recessed cavity under the action of gravity.

[0011] The scanning operation module is movably installed at the opening of the box, forming a closed space with the box for accommodating confidential carriers; the scanning operation module has a built-in movable scanning module, which can be operated without contact to scan the QR code or barcode on the confidential carrier contained in the closed space.

[0012] The flip-plate unloading module is fixed to the bottom of the box. When the confidential carrier in the sealed space completes contactless scanning and is confirmed to be confiscated, the flip-plate unloading module opens and the confidential carrier falls into the collection cabinet below it.

[0013] Furthermore, the barcode scanning module includes a front cover, a resistive touchscreen, a support frame, a transparent fixing plate, a barcode scanning module, a stepper motor, an X-axis zeroing sensor, and a Y-axis zeroing sensor. The support frame is fixed to the front cover with screws, and the resistive touchscreen is clamped between the front cover and the support frame. The fixing plate is located behind and connected to the support frame. The stepper motor is fixed on the fixing plate, and the stepper motor drives the barcode scanning module to move. The X-axis zeroing sensor and the Y-axis zeroing sensor for positioning are fixed on the fixing plate.

[0014] Furthermore, several sets of infrared receiving diodes are provided at the opening of the box and inside the box; correspondingly, several sets of infrared light-emitting diodes are provided on the scanning operation module; the infrared light-emitting diodes can emit infrared light of different frequencies.

[0015] Furthermore, an electromagnet is fixedly provided on the contact surface between the housing and the scanning operation module; correspondingly, a soft electromagnet is fixedly provided on the scanning operation module.

[0016] Furthermore, the flip-plate unloading module includes a flip plate, a flip plate shaft, a flip plate frame, a flip plate motor, a flip plate gear, and a flip plate half gear; the flip plate is fixed to the side of the flip plate frame via the flip plate shaft; the flip plate motor and the flip plate gear are fixed inside the flip plate frame; the flip plate half gear is fixed to the back of the flip plate and meshes with the flip plate gear to drive the flip plate to move.

[0017] Furthermore, a shock-absorbing cover plate is riveted to the upper surface of the flap.

[0018] Furthermore, several displacement sensors are fixed inside the box to sense in real time whether the position of the confidential carrier inside the feeding box has changed.

[0019] Furthermore, the collection cabinet is equipped with a bag hanging bracket, and a confidential bag for temporarily storing classified materials is placed on the bag hanging bracket; or, the collection cabinet is equipped with a shredder to directly shred the collected classified materials.

[0020] Furthermore, the feeding box is equipped with a printer interface, a network interface, and a fingerprint module interface.

[0021] Furthermore, the contactless classified carrier security collection and destruction device also includes a control system. The control system adopts a distributed control method and includes two microprocessors. Microprocessor I controls the barcode scanning module, which uses contactless operation to scan the barcode or QR code on the classified carrier placed in the feeding box. Microprocessor II controls the flip-plate unloading module and the collection cabinet, as well as human-machine interaction and the processing of various information, to complete the contactless registration and collection of classified carriers. Beneficial effects

[0022] Advantages of this invention:

[0023] 1. This invention enables fully automated, contactless collection of classified materials, effectively reducing the contact range of classified materials, preventing classified materials from being touched by others during the collection process, avoiding the risk of classified materials being swapped after scanning, collecting, registering, and confirming collection, and the theft of classified information, thereby improving the security of the entire collection process.

[0024] 2. Because the present invention integrates the scanning module inside the collection device and scans the barcode or QR code on the confidential carrier in the enclosed space inside the feeding box, the entire process is contactless scanning, which solves the problems of scanning deception and swapping during the collection process and achieves accurate collection.

[0025] 3. This invention incorporates multiple sets of infrared signal receivers inside the material feeding bin of the collection device, and multiple sets of infrared light emitters on the barcode scanning module. Based on the timing of the infrared light received by the receivers, it monitors in real time whether the classified materials inside the feeding bin have been moved or whether anyone is attempting to remove them. For example, normally, classified materials enter the feeding bin from top to bottom. If someone attempts to remove a material from the bin, the material moves from bottom to top. In these two scenarios, the timing of the infrared light received by the receivers at the top and bottom of the feeding bin will differ. Upon detecting any anomalies, this invention immediately triggers an alarm, preventing theft or substitution of classified materials after scanning, collection, registration, and confirmation, thus improving the security of the classified material collection process.

[0026] 4. This invention sets up multiple sets of infrared signal receivers in the feeding box of the collection device and multiple sets of infrared emitting lights on the barcode scanning operation module. By emitting infrared light of different frequencies through the infrared emitting lights, the closed status of the feeding box and whether it has been opened can be monitored in real time. This prevents others from trying to open the feeding box to take out the classified carriers inside, ensuring that no one touches the classified carriers during the entire collection process, improving the security of the entire collection process, and achieving accurate collection.

[0027] In addition, the present invention has an electromagnet installed on the contact surface between the material feeding box and the barcode scanning operation module. During the collection process, it ensures that the barcode scanning operation module and the material feeding box are tightly connected to form a closed space, so that others cannot access the classified carrier that has been scanned, collected, registered and confirmed. All acts of illegally opening the material feeding box, barcode scanning operation module and moving classified carriers are monitored, recorded and uploaded, thereby improving the security of the entire collection process.

[0053] The structure and features of the present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be noted that various modifications can be made to the embodiments disclosed herein; therefore, the embodiments disclosed in this specification should not be considered as limitations on the present invention, but merely as examples to make the features of the present invention readily apparent.

[0054] As shown in Figure 1, the contactless classified media security collection device of the present invention includes a feeding box 1 and a collection cabinet 2, which are fixed together by internal bolts. The feeding box 1 is used for contactless barcode scanning registration and collection of classified media; the collection cabinet 2 is used for storing or destroying classified media.

[0055] As shown in Figures 2 and 3, the feeding box 1 includes a box body 11, a barcode scanning operation module 12, a flip-plate material dropping module 13, and a lifting screen module 14.

[0056] The barcode scanning module 12 is movably mounted on the front of the housing 11, forming a closed space with the housing 11 for accommodating classified materials. The barcode scanning module 12 has a built-in movable barcode scanning module that allows for contactless operation to scan the QR codes or barcodes of classified materials within the closed space.

[0057] The flip-plate unloading module 13 is fixed at the bottom of the box 11, and below it is the entrance of the collection cabinet 2, which is used to slide the classified carriers that have been scanned and placed in the enclosed space into the collection cabinet 2 below the box 11.

[0058] The lifting screen module 14 is installed at the rear of the housing 11 and is used for human-computer interaction, receiving instructions, and uploading data.

[0059] As shown in Figure 4, the box 11 is a front-opening box with a trapezoidal cross-section on one side. The top of the box has a feeding port 111 for classified carriers to pass through. Inside the box, below the feeding port, there is an inwardly recessed cavity 112. When a classified carrier is fed into the box through the feeding port 111, it falls backward into the inwardly recessed cavity 112 under the action of gravity. The purpose of this design is to prevent others from attempting to hook the loaded classified carrier out of the feeding port with tools, thereby stealing or switching the classified carrier.

[0060] A barcode scanning module 12 is installed at the front opening of the housing 11, and the barcode scanning module 12 is connected to the housing 11 via a damping hinge 113. An electromagnet 114 is fixed on the contact surface between the housing 11 and the barcode scanning module 12. When the confiscation device is working, the electromagnet 114 is energized, and the barcode scanning module 12 and the housing 11 are attracted to each other, forming a closed space for accommodating classified materials. If a classified material is mistakenly disposed of or needs to be removed, the electromagnet 114 can be de-energized, separating the barcode scanning module 12 from the housing 11.

[0061] To further ensure that the scanning operation module 12 and the housing 11 are magnetically engaged during the confiscation of classified materials, and that the classified materials are contained within a closed space, this invention installs several sets of infrared receiving diodes 115 at the upper and lower edges of the opening of the housing 11. Correspondingly, several sets of infrared light-emitting diodes are installed on the scanning operation module 12. If the feeding box 1 is opened, i.e., the scanning operation module 12 separates from the housing 11, the infrared receiving diodes on the housing 11 will not receive the infrared light emitted by the infrared light-emitting diodes on the scanning operation module 12, and an alarm will be triggered immediately. In addition, several displacement sensors are fixed within the recessed cavity of the housing 11 to sense in real time whether the classified materials inside the housing have changed position, thereby determining whether the movement of the classified materials is normal, to ensure that the classified materials are confiscated in a contactless, fully enclosed space. Suppose someone attempts to remove a classified carrier that has been placed inside the container. If the person forcibly opens the barcode scanning module in front of the container or uses other means to hook the classified carrier out from the feeding port, the timing of the infrared light received by the infrared receiving diodes installed above and below the opening of the container will change as the classified carrier moves from bottom to top. The displacement sensor inside the container will detect the shaking and change in the relative position of the carrier, thereby issuing an alarm signal.

[0062] To facilitate the management of classified materials, barcodes or QR codes indicating their classified information are usually affixed to these materials. Traditionally, staff use barcode scanners to scan these codes for registration and confiscation. However, in practice, while staff may scan genuine classified materials, the materials placed into the confiscation device are not the scanned ones, but rather other stored media that have been switched. To avoid this, this invention integrates a barcode scanning module within the scanning operation module, enabling contactless scanning. Scanning is only performed on classified materials placed in the feeding bin, and no one touches the scanning module or the classified material during the entire scanning process. Furthermore, confiscation is only complete after the scanned classified material falls into the confiscation cabinet via the flip-plate unloading module. This complete process prevents unauthorized access to the scanning module and the classified material during confiscation, mitigating the risk of switching after scanning and registration, and the theft of classified information.

[0063] As shown in Figures 1-3 and 5-7, the barcode scanning module 12 is installed at the opening of the housing 11, directly facing the recessed cavity 112 inside the housing, allowing direct viewing of the classified carriers that have fallen into the cavity. The barcode scanning module 12 includes a front cover 121, a resistive touchscreen 122, a support frame 123, a transparent fixing plate 124, a barcode scanning module 127, a stepper motor 125, an X-axis zero-return sensor 129, a Y-axis zero-return sensor 1210, an infrared LED 1211, and an electromagnetic soft iron 1212.

[0064] A resistive touchscreen 122 is located between the front cover 121 and the support frame 123. The support frame 123 is fixed to the front cover 121 with screws, thus clamping the resistive touchscreen 122 between the front cover 121 and the support frame 123. A transparent fixing plate 124 is also provided behind the support frame 123. A stepper motor 125 is fixed to the fixing plate, and the stepper motor 125 pulls the barcode scanning module 127 via a traction rope 126. As shown in Figure 8, a traction wheel 128 is fixed to the output shaft of the stepper motor 125, and the traction rope 126 is wound around the traction wheel 128. After the holder of the classified carrier, or the director or specialist of the classified information office, puts the classified carrier into the feeding box, the resistive touchscreen 122 determines the position of the barcode on the classified carrier. The control system drives the stepper motor 125 to pull the barcode scanning module 127 to the barcode position via the traction rope 126 according to the barcode position, and scans the barcode or QR code on the classified carrier. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a stepper motor is fixed at each of the four corners of the fixed sealing plate. The scanning module is connected to the four stepper motors via four traction ropes, and the four stepper motors pull the scanning module to move. Of course, the scanning module can also be driven by other driving methods, such as by fixing X-axis and Y-axis slide rods, lead screws, synchronous pulleys, etc. on the fixed sealing plate.

[0065] In order to accurately determine the position reached by the barcode scanning module 127, an X-axis zeroing sensor 129 and a Y-axis zeroing sensor 1210 for positioning are fixed on the fixed sealing plate 124.

[0066] This invention also fixes several sets of infrared light-emitting diodes 1211 at different positions on the fixed sealing plate 124, which cooperate with the infrared receiving diodes 115 on the box to sense whether the barcode scanning operation module 12 is in a closed state when it is engaged with the box 11, and whether the confidential carrier placed in the box has been moved. To prevent others from using an infrared remote control to simulate the infrared light-emitting diodes 1211 to control the infrared receiving diodes inside the box, the control system of this invention outputs control signals to make the infrared light-emitting diodes 1211 emit infrared light of different frequencies.

[0067] An electromagnetic soft iron 1212 is also fixed on the fixed sealing plate 124. The electromagnetic soft iron 1212 cooperates with the electromagnet 114 on the box to attract the barcode scanning operation module 12 to the box 11, forming a closed space to accommodate the confidential carrier, thereby achieving the purpose of non-contact scanning of barcodes or QR codes on the confidential carrier in a closed state.

[0068] To improve the overall security of the barcode scanning module and fix the barcode scanning module 127 in a relatively enclosed space, a back cover 1213 is added to the back of the fixing plate. The front cover 121, the support frame 123, and the back cover 1213 are combined into an integral frame, which fixes the resistive screen 122, the barcode scanning module 127, the transparent fixing plate 124, the stepper motor 125, the zeroing sensor, and the infrared light-emitting diode within the integral frame.

[0069] The front cover 121 of the barcode scanning operation module is also equipped with a status indicator light 1214 and a buzzer to display the status of the confiscation device. When the barcode scanning operation module 12 is separated from the housing 11, and the confidential carrier inside the housing is touched by a person, the status indicator light flashes and the buzzer sounds an alarm.

[0070] When it is necessary to remove the confidential carrier from the feeding box for some reason, in order to facilitate the opening of the barcode scanning module 12, the present invention also provides a handle 1215 on the front cover 121.

[0071] As shown in Figures 7 and 9, the barcode scanning module 127 is a mature module. This invention uses a barcode scanning module with a built-in RFID reader / writer. It consists of an upper cover 1271, a lower cover 1272, a barcode scanning camera 1273, a barcode scanning circuit board 1274, an infrared emitting light 1275, and an RFID reader / writer 1276. The upper and lower covers form a closed housing. The barcode scanning camera 1273 is fixed to the outer surface of the upper cover and electrically connected to the barcode scanning circuit board 1274, which is fixed inside the closed housing. The barcode scanning circuit board 1274, the infrared emitting light 1275, and the RFID reader / writer 1276 are fixed inside the housing.

[0072] As shown in Figures 3 and 10-13, the flip-plate unloading module 13 includes a flip plate 131, a flip plate rotating shaft 132, a flip plate frame 133, a flip plate motor 134, a flip plate gear 135, a flip plate half gear 137, a buckle plate 138, and a flip plate shock-absorbing pad 139.

[0073] The flip-plate unloading module 13 is located at the bottom of the box. When the holder of the classified carrier or the director or specialist of the classified office puts the classified carrier into the box 11, the scanning operation module 12 scans the code, and after the holder of the classified carrier or the director or specialist of the classified office confirms that the classified carrier is to be sent for disposal, the confirmation button is pressed, and the flip-plate 131 of the flip-plate unloading module 13 opens (as shown in Figure 12). The classified carrier falls into the collection cabinet 2 below the feeding box 1 through the flip-plate unloading module 13. The flip-plate 131 returns to its original position and closes (as shown in Figure 10), and the collection process is completed.

[0074] As shown in the figure, the flap 131 is fixed to the side of the flap frame 133 via the flap pivot 132. Before the holder of the classified carrier decides to send the classified carrier for disposal, the flap 131 is in a closed state (as shown in Figure 10), and the flap 131 blocks the material discharge port of the box; only when the holder of the classified carrier decides to send the classified carrier for disposal, the flap 131 is in an open state (as shown in Figure 12), and the classified carrier falls into the collection cabinet 2 below it through the flap discharge module 13.

[0075] As shown in the figure, a flap motor 134 and a flap gear 135 are fixed inside the flap frame 133. The flap motor 134 is fixed inside the flap frame 133 by a fixing plate 136, and the flap gear 135 is connected to the motor output shaft of the flap motor 134.

[0076] The flap half gear 137 is fixed to the back of the flap 131 by the snap-fit ​​plate 138 and meshes with the flap gear 135. The flap motor 134 drives the flap 131 to move through the flap gear 135 and the flap half gear 137.

[0077] To prevent unauthorized personnel from attempting to remove the flap 131 and retrieve classified materials from the confiscation cabinet, this invention includes a shock-absorbing cover 139 riveted to the top of the flap 131. The flap half-gear 137 that drives the flap's movement and the locking plate 138 for fixing are both installed on the back of the flap 131. Once this invention is installed and shipped from the factory, unauthorized personnel cannot easily disassemble the flap 131.

[0078] As shown in Figure 14, for ease of operation, the present invention also includes an independent lifting screen module 14 installed on the housing. The lifting screen module 14 includes a display screen 141, a support base 142, a lifting motor 143, a gear 144, a mounting frame 145, a rack 146, a slide 147, and a spring ball 148.

[0079] A fixed support base 142 is mounted on the bottom of the display screen 141. A lifting motor 143 is fixed on the support base, and the output shaft of the lifting motor is connected to a gear 144. A rack 146 meshing with the gear is provided on the mounting frame 145; sliding grooves 147 are provided on both sides of the mounting frame, and spring beads 148 are spaced apart in the sliding grooves. The display screen 141 and its bottom support base 142 are embedded in the mounting frame 145. The display screen 141 is driven to rise and fall through the meshing of the rack and gear and the interaction between the spring beads and the display screen and the support base.

[0080] To prevent unauthorized access to the feeding box 11 by disassembling the lifting screen module 14, the lifting screen module 14 is not connected to the feeding box cavity 112. A separate inspection door is provided on the back of the box 11 for installing and maintaining the lifting screen module.

[0081] The feeding port of the contactless classified media security collection device shown in Figures 1-15 is for feeding a single type of classified media. For example, a feeding port with a 2 mm gap can only feed paper classified media, or a feeding port with a 28 mm gap can only feed hard disk classified media, or a feeding port with a 3 mm gap can only feed optical disc classified media, or a feeding port with a 10 mm gap can only feed USB flash drive classified media.

[0082] As shown in Figures 16-18, depending on the thickness of the classified carrier being placed, the feeding port of the feeding box can be opened into several independent slits of different widths, such as feeding port 1111 for hard drives, feeding port 1112 for optical discs and paper media, and feeding port 1113 for USB flash drives. Correspondingly, as shown in Figures 19 and 20, for each feeding port, a flip-plate dispensing module is provided at the bottom of the box, such as flip-plate dispensing modules 1311, 1312, and 1313. The three flip-plate dispensing modules move independently of each other, and their structure and working principle are the same as those of the flip-plate dispensing module 13 described in Figures 10-13, and will not be described again here.

[0083] As shown in Figures 1, 21, and 22, a collection cabinet 2 is fixedly connected below the feeding box 1 for temporarily storing or destroying collected classified materials. The collection cabinet 2 has a combination lock 21 on its door. As shown in Figure 21, a bag-hanging bracket 22 is provided inside the collection cabinet 2, and a confidential bag 23 for temporarily storing classified materials is placed on the bracket. Alternatively, as shown in Figure 22, a shredder 24 for crushing classified materials is fixed inside the collection cabinet 2.

[0084] For security reasons, in addition to a combination lock on the cabinet door, this invention also includes a fingerprint recognition module, allowing the cabinet to be opened and closed via fingerprint authentication.

[0085] A camera is installed inside the collection cabinet to record the entire process inside, especially the process of staff taking out, placing, and tying up the security bags.

[0086] As shown in Figures 23 and 24, the present invention may also provide a manual feeding port 25 on the surface of the collection cabinet 2. Expired classified carriers or information recording carriers that do not require registration can be directly fed into the collection cabinet 2 through the manual feeding port 25 for crushing.

[0087] As shown in Figure 25, the control system of the present invention adopts a distributed control method, including two microprocessors. Microprocessor I is mainly responsible for controlling the barcode scanning module to acquire the barcode or QR code of the confidential carrier.

[0088] After the classified carrier is placed into the feeding bin, the holder touches the resistive touchscreen to determine the position of the barcode or QR code on the carrier. Microprocessor I outputs a control signal based on the barcode position to drive a stepper motor, which in turn drives the scanning module to the designated position to scan the barcode or QR code on the classified carrier. After scanning, as needed, microprocessor I uses signals from the X-axis and Y-axis zeroing sensors to drive the stepper motor to pull the scanning module back to the zeroing point. Microprocessor I acquires the barcode, QR code, or RFID information scanned by the scanning module and transmits the information to microprocessor II, which then transmits it to the host computer.

[0089] When the barcode scanning module is working, the microprocessor I outputs a pulse signal, causing the infrared LED to emit infrared light of different frequencies. The infrared receiving diode on the feeding box receives the infrared light and monitors in real time whether the barcode scanning module and the feeding box are engaged, as well as the status of the confidential carriers inside the feeding box. The status of the barcode scanning module and the confidential carriers is displayed through status lights. An alarm is triggered when an abnormality occurs.

[0090] The microprocessor II is mainly responsible for controlling the flip-board unloading module, the lifting screen module, human-machine interaction, and the processing of various information, so as to realize the contactless registration and collection of classified carriers.

[0091] Microprocessor II uses infrared receiving diodes on the feeding box to detect in real time whether classified materials are being fed in, whether they have been moved, and whether their status is normal. Upon receiving a signal from microprocessor I confirming the completion of scanning and confiscation of the classified materials, it sends a control signal to drive the flip-plate motor of the flip-plate unloading module to open the flip-plate, allowing the classified materials to slide into the confiscation cabinet below the confiscation device. Then, it drives the flip-plate motor to close the flip-plate, completing the confiscation and recording relevant information, which is then uploaded to the host computer.

[0092] When the barcode scanning module and the flip-board unloading module are working, the microprocessor II sends a control signal to energize the electromagnet on the box and attract the electromagnet on the barcode scanning module. The barcode scanning module and the feeding box are always kept in a closed state. The microprocessor II monitors the status of the classified carrier in real time through infrared receiving diodes and displacement sensors. It drives the lifting motor to raise the display screen to realize human-machine interaction.

[0093] Microprocessor II also manages the printer interface, fingerprint module interface, and Ethernet interface on the material feeding bin. When there is no barcode or QR code on the classified material, a QR code is generated directly, printed, and affixed to the classified material.

[0094] The present invention can also be connected to an external fingerprint module. The microprocessor II can input the operator's fingerprint through the fingerprint module to complete the authentication of user rights.

[0095] The Microprocessor II can also upload and download data and instructions via an Ethernet interface.

[0096] The following example illustrates the entire process of seizing classified materials:

[0097] First, the collection device is powered on, and the operator (usually the holder of classified materials or the director or specialist of the confidentiality office) verifies their fingerprint. The collection device then determines whether the operator has the authority to use the device. If the operator has the authority, the collection process begins, and the operator's identity information is registered.

[0098] When the electromagnet on the feeding box is energized, the feeding box and the barcode scanning module are attracted to each other; the display screen rises and displays relevant information. After logging in and confirming the information, the screen displays that feeding is possible.

[0099] Take out the prepared classified carrier and check if it has a barcode or QR code. If it does, put it directly into the feeding box. If it does not have a barcode, operate the screen to print the QR code or barcode, print it with the printer, stick it on the front of the classified carrier (try not to stick it too close to the edge), and put it into the feeding box.

[0100] After the classified carrier is placed into the feeding box, touch the resistive touch screen and gently touch the barcode position on the classified carrier. The barcode scanning module moves to the barcode position according to the touch sensor, identifies and reads the barcode, and uploads the read information. If the identification is successful, it is confirmed that there is no problem.

[0101] At this point, the display screen shows "Information Confirmation". After successful confirmation, the display screen will ask whether to continue "feeding". If you choose yes, you can continue to feed classified carriers for batch scanning and registration. If you choose no, the flip-plate of the flip-plate feeding module will open automatically, and the successfully scanned classified carriers will enter the collection cabinet below the collection device. The flip-plate will then reset, and the collection of classified carriers will be completed. The scanning results will be uploaded. If the scanning is unsuccessful, or if you do not wish to continue even though the scanning is complete, you can open the previous scanning operation module, take out the classified media, and assume that the fed classified carriers have not been collected. All relevant data will be uploaded.

[0102] From the moment the classified carrier is placed into the feeding box, the system will automatically monitor in real time the engagement status between the barcode scanning module and the feeding box, as well as the position and status of the classified carrier. If any abnormality occurs, an alarm will be triggered immediately and abnormal information will be uploaded.

[0103] Because this invention integrates a barcode scanning module and only scans classified materials placed in the feeding bin, and sets up multiple infrared transmitting and receiving devices at different locations on the collection device to monitor the theft of classified materials, it truly achieves the anti-fraud barcode scanning registration and collection work directly completed by the collection device in a fully enclosed space. This fundamentally eliminates the risk of classified materials being touched by others during the collection process, and avoids the risk of being swapped or having classified information stolen after the classified materials have been scanned, collected, registered, and confirmed.

[0104] Finally, it should be noted that the above-described embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and are not intended to limit them. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
