SYSTEM FOR SLEDS AUTOMATED RENTAL

Abstract

The invention realizes a system for sleds' automated rental, consisting of an infrastructure of various shapes and sizes, for the housing both in vertical and in horizontal position of the devices, thanks to a particular shape that constrains the housing in a forced position that allows its block by an electro-mechanical device equipped with a piston. The invention provides the implementation of hardware and sensors to allow any functionality and automation useful for sleds' automated rental.

Claims

1. Plant for automated rental of sled devices comprising an infrastructure (INF), equipped with a shaped body (SGM) that constrains the housing of the sled device (DIS) in a forced position, vertical and horizontal, Wherein the infrastructure (INF) comprises an electro-mechanical (AGC) having a piston (PIS) that allows the electro-mechanical lock of the sled device (DIS) when the piston (PIS) comes out operated by the mechanism (AGC).

2. The plant according to claim 1 wherein the shaped body (SGM) of the infrastructure (INF) comprises readers (HWD) of presence sensors applied on the sled device (DIS), in order to automatically activate the electromechanism (AGC) for the exit/retraction of the piston (PIS).

3. The plant according to claim 1 wherein said readers (HWD) being part of at least one of the following presence sensors; RFID sensor; infrared sensors; said sensors being operable for automated rental purposes with the implementation of additional microprocessors and hardware for its operation in local and/or in the cloud.

4. The plant according to claim 1, wherein the infrastructure (INF) implements a photovoltaic shelter for its electrical power supply and protection from atmospheric agents.

5. The plant according to claim 1, wherein the infrastructure (INF) further includes a totem for centralized management of the rental operations of the sled device (DIS)

6. The plant according to claim 1 wherein said shaped body (SGM) is shaped to constrain the housing, in a forced position that allows its electro-mechanical block, also of further gaming and sports devices.

7. The plant according to claim 1, wherein the (infrastructure (INFN) includes doors (SPA) to protect the sled devices (DIS).

Description

DESCRIPTIONS OF DRAWINGS AND DESCRIPTION OF INVENTION APPLICATION

[0009] In FIG. 1, FIG. 2, FIG. 3, FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 the invention in question is represented, with indication of the abbreviations previously used.

[0010] In particular: [0011] FIG. 1 shows, in its entirety, a representation of the invention. Specifically, the system consists of an INF infrastructure, for the housing of snow sleds in a horizontal and vertical position, and a centralized totem TOT equipped with the rental access hardware (RFID LRFID reader, bar code reader and NFC LCAB and QR Code LQR reader) and the MCP microprocessor. The AGC electromechanism is located in each housing of the INF infrastructure. Some housings are also protected by SPA doors. A PNS shelter has been set up to cover the entire plant from atmospheric agents. This configuration is particularly effective for automated rental even in particular snow conditions; [0012] FIGS. 2, FIG. 3, FIG. 4 and FIG. 5 instead focus on the particular SGM shaping/molding which constrains the housing of the DIS device in a forced position that allows its electro-mechanical lock. SGM acts as a support for the DIS device and, when the PIS piston of the AGC electro-controlled device is in the locked position, acts a contrast for the device, preventing its unauthorized release. The unique association between the ID of the DIS device and the user enabled for the rental service, is guaranteed by SNS sensors, installed on the same DIS, and the corresponding HDW readers. Each housing is identified with a progressive number NP as well as with the same number converted into a 2D QR code.
