Specifically, the signal transceiver module is an antenna mobile communication module or a wireless receiver.

When this intelligence shopping cart uses:

1. the mobile phone scans the two-dimensional code 103 on the shopping cart body 1, at the moment, the information of the shopping cart body 1 and the customer is uploaded to a background management system, namely a cloud end, the cloud end analyzes the information of the shopping cart body 1 and the customer and then opens the shopping cart body 1, and at the moment, the shopping cart body 1, the cloud end and the mobile phone client are connected together to achieve information synchronization. The two-dimensional identification code 103 of each shopping cart body 1 is unique, the cloud server can adopt one of an Aliskiu cloud or a 360 cloud platform or a Tencent cloud, the mobile phone client comprises an APP, a payment treasure, a WeChat and a WeChat small program, and each customer needs to register and bind the payment treasure, the WeChat or a bank card when using the shopping cart for the first time and signs an automatic deduction protocol.

2. The shopping cart body 1 automatically scans commodities in the shopping cart body 1, commodity information is uploaded to the cloud end, the cloud end is synchronous to the mobile phone client, the scanner 104 in the shopping cart body 1 scans the commodities in the cart at any time, the commodity information in the shopping cart body 1 is updated at any time, and meanwhile, the cloud end and the mobile phone client are synchronous. Scanning employs a non-contact auto-scanning technique such as, but not limited to, an RFID radio frequency identification system.

3. After the shopping cart body 1 returns to a specific area, the mobile phone client automatically deducts money according to the last commodity information, a commodity list is formed, after a certain time, for example, one minute, the central control unit of the intelligent shopping cart body 1 controls the GPS intelligent lock 108 to lock the roller 107, when the lock is automatically locked, the central control unit controls the cylinder 115 to be opened, the piston rod of the cylinder 115 jacks up the right side of the sliding plate 109, the right side of the sliding plate 109 slowly rises, the goods fall into a shopping bag in the goods shelf 113 from the notch 112, automatic packing is completed, then the central control unit controls the piston rod of the cylinder 115 to return to the original position, and the sliding plate 109 returns to the original position.

The technical scheme is distinguished from the traditional technology:

1. based on the intelligent control system 2 and the cloud service, real-time synchronization of the shopping cart body 1, the mobile phone client and the cloud information is achieved.

2. Wireless charging in a specific area: the shopping cart body 1 can be wirelessly charged in a specific area by installing the charging power supply module.

3. Automatic packaging: after the shopping cart body 1 returns to a specific area, the central control unit controls the GPS intelligent lock 108 to lock the roller 107, when the lock is automatically locked, the central control unit controls the cylinder 115 to be opened, the piston rod of the cylinder 115 jacks up the right side of the sliding plate 109, the right side of the sliding plate 109 slowly rises, goods fall into a shopping bag in the goods shelf 113 from the gap 112, automatic packing is completed, then the central control unit controls the piston rod of the cylinder 115 to return to the original position, and the sliding plate 109 returns to the original position.

4. The shopping cart body 1 can be locked by one key through the mobile phone client, so that the mobile phone client starts to display the position signal of the shopping cart body 1 after the shopping cart body 1 is locked by one key to prevent the shopping cart body 1 from being carried by others.

5. The shopping cart body 1 is internally provided with a real-time dynamic scanner 104 which has no dead angle in all directions and is not influenced by the commodity placing position in a certain space: whatever the manner in which the merchandise is placed, the scanner 104 can detect the merchandise information and synchronize to the mobile client at the same time. When a customer does not want a certain commodity, the commodity can be taken out at any time and put back to the original position, and the synchronous information is updated at the same time.

6. The shopping cart body 1 can be opened by brushing the face and the palm.

7. The wireless signal transceiver module not only has a wireless local area network, but also can be a 4G network or a 5G network.

8. After the shopping cart body 1 returns to a specific area, a shopping list is formed and deducted automatically, and a customer can check the shopping list at any time.

9. The shopping process comprises the following steps: when a customer walks into a specific region of a placement region of the shopping cart body 1 → the shopping cart body 1 is unlocked by a face and a palm → the shopping cart body 1, the cloud end and the mobile client end are synchronous → the customer selects commodities, when the customer enters the shopping cart body 1, the commodity information is synchronous with the mobile client end → the customer returns to the specific region, the mobile client end automatically completes payment deduction, the shopping cart body 1 is locked, and the commodities are automatically packaged.

The biggest difference is as follows: real-time dynamic scanning and real-time synchronization; the mobile phone client automatically deducts money; wirelessly charging; automatically packaging; the vehicle can be locked by one key; the scanner 104 is not influenced by the position of the articles in the shopping cart body 1 and the number of the articles.

Therefore, the shopping cart body 1 is upgraded and transformed to be a mobile checkout stand, goods are automatically scanned, wireless checkout is automatically carried out, wireless charging is carried out, goods are automatically packaged, and the intelligent shopping cart is suitable for large-scale popularization.

The two-dimensional code 103 in the drawing represents the unique identification two-dimensional code of the shopping cart body 1, the identification is not limited to be the two-dimensional code but also can be other identifications, the two-dimensional code is taken as an example for explanation, and the two-dimensional code is a link trigger point of the shopping cart, the mobile phone client and the cloud. Visual sensing technology may also be used here, and the customer may unlock the lock by some part of the body, such as the palm or face.

The trolley 107 with the GPS intelligent lock 108 has the advantages that after the shopping trolley body 1 enters a specific area, the GPS intelligent lock 108 automatically falls off, and a customer can also close the lock by one key after opening the GPS intelligent lock 108. This function is not limited to a particular wheel 107, nor to the GPS smart lock 108.

The two-dimensional code 103 is not the only adopted identifier of the shopping cart body 1; the GPS intelligent lock 108 is not the only intelligent lock, and the locking mode is not limited to the roller 107, and can be other locking modes; the scanning technique may be any technique that can automatically scan goods; the opening mode of the chassis is not limited to one mode, and the automatic packing is not limited to the packing mode, and other non-invasive and novel automatic packing is protected by the patent.

Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made in these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined in the appended claims and their equivalents.
