Description

分体式的读码装置 技术领域
本发明涉及一种信息读取装置，尤其涉及一种分体式的读码装置。
背景技术
随着信息技术的发展，表现为诸如条形码或二维码等并且包含特定信息的图形标识符(图形码)被广泛地设置在各种物品上，例如，商场超市中的商品上、图书馆或书店的图书上、各种票证上等，以及生成在诸如智能手机、平板电脑等的智能设备中等。为了有效利用诸如条形码或二维码等的图形码，需要利用读码装置对图形码进行扫描以读取诸如条形码或二维码等的图形码上承载的信息。除了传统的一体式读码装置之外，已经开发出了分体式的读码装置以方便读取各种图形码。
分体式的读码装置通常包括带有读取窗的基座、以及带有摄像头并且可取下地放置在基座上的手持式扫码器。这种读码装置一方面可以在手持式扫码器放置在基座上时借助于基座上的读取窗由手持式扫码器的摄像头对图形码进行扫描以读取信息，另一方面可以在手持式扫码器从基座上取下时由操作人员拿着手持式扫码器利用手持式扫码器的摄像头直接对图形码进行扫描以读取信息。但是，现有分体式的读码装置由于设计缺陷而具有体积大、重量大、成本高的缺点，不便于使用。
因此，需要对现有技术中的分体式的读码装置进行改进。
发明内容
本发明的一个目的是要克服上述现有技术中的缺陷，提供一种分体式的读码装置，这种分体式的读码装置具有体积小、重量轻、成本低，便于使用的优点。
根据本发明的一个方面，提供一种分体式的读码装置，包括：
具有读取窗的基座，所述基座能够被安放在一个支撑表面上，所述读取窗包括形成在所述基座中的空腔、设置在所述空腔中的反射镜、安装在所述基座上并且覆盖所述空腔朝向外侧的开口的透光板、以及与所述反射镜相对地设置在所述空腔的一端的封闭的透光孔；
具有摄像头的手持式扫码器，当所述手持式扫码器被可取下地放置在所述基座上 时，所述摄像头与所述透光孔对齐，使得来自待扫描的图形码的入射光线经过所述反射镜反射后能够透过所述透光孔到达所述摄像头；
其中，所述反射镜与所述基座的支撑表面平行地设置，并且所述透光板与所述反射镜成锐角地设置。
在一个实施例中，所述基座构成为由第一支腿部和第二支腿部形成的∧形，所述读取窗设置在所述第一支腿部上，用于接收所述手持式扫码器的容纳部部分地位于第一支腿部以及部分地位于所述第二支腿部上，所述手持式扫码器也相应地形成为∧状并且具有短的第一部分和长的第二部分，所述摄像头设置在所述第一部分的端部。
在一个实施例中，所述第一支腿部和所述第二支腿部构造成扁平体，并且所述第一支腿部和所述第二支腿部之间的夹角在90至120°之间。
在一个实施例中，所述第一支腿部和所述第二支腿部由塑性材料注塑而成。
在一个实施例中，所述第一支腿部和所述第二支腿部可旋转地连接在一起。
在一个实施例中，所述第一支腿部和所述第二支腿部之间的夹角是可调节的。
在一个实施例中，所述基座和所述手持式扫码器构造成当所述手持式扫码器被放置在所述基座上时，所述第一部分的顶表面与所述第一支腿部的顶表面保持齐平、以及所述手持式扫码器的侧表面与所述基座的侧表面保持齐平。
在一个实施例中，所述手持式扫码器的所述第二部分的顶表面上设置有第一显示屏。

具体实施方式
下面结合示例详细描述本发明的优选实施例。本领域技术人员应理解的是，这些示例性实施例并不意味着对本发明形成任何限制。
图1以立体示意图显示了根据本发明优选实施例的分体式的读码装置，其中，手持式扫码器与基座处于分离状态。图2以另一立体示意图显示了根据本发明优选实施例的分体式的读码装置，其中，手持式扫码器与基座处于分离状态。图3以立体示意图显示了根据本发明优选实施例的分体式的读码装置，其中，手持式扫码器被放置在基座上。图4以另一立体示意图显示了根据本发明优选实施例的分体式的读码装置，其中，手持式扫码器被放置在基座上。图5以剖视图表示以示意性地显示了根据本发明优选实施例的分体式的读码装置的基座。
如图1-5所示，根据本发明优选实施例的分体式的读码装置1包括基座3和手持式扫码器5。基座3能够被安放在一个支撑表面S上。基座3中形成有一个空腔7，空腔7朝向外侧的开口7a被安装在基座3上并且由诸如玻璃、透明塑料等材料制成的透光板9所覆盖以形成基座3的读取窗11。在读取窗11的空腔7中设置有反射镜13，反射镜13与基座3的支撑表面S大体平行地设置，并且透光板9也与反射镜13成锐角地设置。在空腔7与反射镜13相对的一端在基座3中设置有透光孔15。透光孔15也可优选地由诸如玻璃、透明塑料等材料制成的透光板17所覆盖，使得空腔7内侧形成封闭空间，以防尘土等污物落在反射镜13上。基座3上还形成有用于接收手持式扫码器5的容纳部19。
图6是手持式扫码器被放置在基座上的本发明优选实施例的分体式的读码装置的示意侧剖视图，其中，示意性地显示了光路。在图6中，箭头线表示光线路径，A表示手持式扫码器被放置在基座上时手持式扫码器的光束采集识别范围或扫码识别区。为了简化起见，在图6中没有示出手持式扫码器5的内部结构。如图6所示，当手持式扫码器5被接收在容纳部19上时，手持式扫码器5的摄像头21能够与透光孔15大体对齐。这样，来自待扫描的图形码(未示出)的入射光线经过反射镜13反射后能够透过透光孔15到达手持式扫码器5的摄像头，从而由摄像头对图形码进行扫描以读取其上承载的信息。
与相对于基座的支撑表面倾斜地设置并且具有相同反射面积的反射镜相比，根据本发明的与基座3的支撑表面S大体平行地设置的反射镜13可以具有更大的光束采集识别范围，即，具有更大的扫码识别区。换句话说，为了获得同样大小的光束采集识别范围或扫码识别区A，与反射镜相对于基座的支撑表面倾斜地设置的情况相比，根据本发明相对于基座3的支撑表面S大体平行地设置的反射镜13可以具有更小的反射面积。这样，由于可以采用更小反射面积的反射镜，反射镜安装在其中的基座也可以制作成更小的尺寸，从而具有更小的体积、更轻的重量和更低的成本。
为了进一步减轻基座3的重量，基座3可以构成为由第一支腿部3a和第二支腿部3b形成的∧形，内侧设置有反射镜13的读取窗11可以设置在第一支腿部3a和第二支腿部3b中的一个上，例如设置在第一支腿部3a上。用于接收手持式扫码器5的容纳部19部分地位于第一支腿部3a以及部分地位于第二支腿部3b上。手持式扫码器5也相应地形成为∧状、并且具有较短的第一部分5a和较长的第二部分5b，摄像头21设置在L状的手持式扫码器5的较短的第一部分5a的端部。当手持式扫码器5被放置在基座3 上时，手持式扫码器5的较短的第一部分5a被接收在容纳部19位于第一支腿部3a上的部分中，使得摄像头21与透光孔15对齐且朝向反射镜13，而手持式扫码器5的较长的第二部分5b被接收在容纳部19位于第二支腿部3b上的部分中。当手持式扫码器5被从基座3上取下时，手持式扫码器5的较长的第二部分5b可以供操作者抓握手持式扫码器5。
第一支腿部3a和第二支腿部3b优选地构造成轻薄的扁平体，并且使得第一支腿部3a和第二支腿部3b之间的夹角α优选地在90至120°之间，更优选地为100°，从而使得经过基座3的读取窗11形成的扫码识别区处于容易覆盖各种待扫描的图形码的位置，即，使得各种待扫描的图形码能够被方便地扫描。第一支腿部3a和第二支腿部3b通常由塑性材料注塑而成，为了提高轻薄的基座3的强度，可以在基座3中设置金属或其它材料构成的加强件3c。
在优选实施例中，基座3的第一支腿部3a和第二支腿部3b是成一体的，但是应理解的是，基座3的第一支腿部3a和第二支腿部3b也可以是可旋转地连接在一起，例如通过铰链连接在一起。在不使用时，第一支腿部3a和第二支腿部3b可以被旋转折叠在一起，从而减少存放时所占用的空间。在使用时，可以将第一支腿部3a和第二支腿部3b旋转打开以安放在支撑表面上。此外，第一支腿部3a和第二支腿部3b之间的夹角可以根据需要调节，从而获得合适的扫码识别区。如果需要，还可以设置锁定装置，将第一支腿部3a和第二支腿部3b锁定在所调节的合适位置。
基座3和手持式扫码器5的尺寸优选地设计成当手持式扫码器5被放置在基座3上时，手持式扫码器5的较短的第一部分5a的顶表面与第一支腿部3a的顶表面保持齐平、以及手持式扫码器5的侧表面与基座3的侧表面保持齐平，从而使得扫码装置1的整体结构显得简洁、紧凑。
手持式扫码器5的较长的第二部分5b的顶表面上设置有第一显示屏23，第一显示屏23可以用于显示读取的图形码的信息以供操作员观看、以及供操作员在需要时输入指令和/或信息，例如在作为支付扫码装置时显示需要支付的金额。手持式扫码器5的较短的第一部分5a的顶表面上设置有第二显示屏25，第二显示屏25也用于显示读取的图形码的信息，但通常供诸如消费者的其它人员观看。
手持式扫码器5的第二部分5b的侧面上可以设置有电源开关27，用于打开和关闭手持式扫码器5。手持式扫码器5的第二部分5b的侧面上还可以设置有第一扫码按钮29，优选地还可以在第二部分5b的顶面上第一显示屏23下侧设置第二扫码按钮31，无 论是按下第一扫码按钮29还是第二扫码按钮31都可以使手持式扫码器5执行对图形码进行扫描以读取其承载的信息的功能。手持式扫码器5的第二部分5b的另一侧面上还可以设置有音量调节按钮33，以调节由手持式扫码器5发出的音频提示的音量大小。
正如所知的，手持式扫码器5的内部设置有用于执行扫描读码功能的光学元件、电子元件以及电池等，本发明不涉及对手持式扫码器5的内部结构的改进，因此，对此不再进行详细描述。
图7以立体示意图显示了根据本发明优选实施例的分体式的读码装置的基座。图8以立体示意图显示了根据本发明优选实施例的分体式的读码装置的基座，其中，充电线被插接到基座上。当手持式扫码器5被放置在基座3上时，可以对手持式扫码器5进行充电。为此，基座3的第二支腿部3b中可以设置有电路板(未示出)、以及与电路板连接的充电线接口35，例如USB接口。基座3的第二支腿部3b的顶面上还设置与电路板连接的导电触点37。当手持式扫码器5被放置在基座3上时，手持式扫码器5的第二部分5b的底面上的导电触点(未示出)与基座3的第二支腿部3b的顶面上的导电触点37接触，从而对手持式扫码器5进行充电。优选地，基座3的第二支腿部3b上设置有通透开口39，设置在第二支腿部3b中的电路板位于开口39上方，充电线接口35设置在开口39的靠近电路板的侧壁上，并且在开口39下方设置有从第二支腿部3b的底面向内凹进的凹槽41。当然，凹槽41也可以从第二支腿部3b的顶面向内凹进。这样，与导线43连接的充电线插头45可以在开口39中插入充电线接口35，并且使得导线43被嵌入到凹槽41中。结果，充电线插头45不会外露在第二支腿部3b的外侧，从而减少对外部环境的干扰。
尽管已经结合本发明优选实施例对本发明进行了详细描述，但应当理解的是，这种详细描述仅是用于解释本发明而不构成对本发明的限制。本发明的范围由权利要求限定的技术方案来确定。
