The study of infall motion helps us to understand the initial stages of starformation. In this paper, we use the IRAM 30-m telescope to make mappingobservations of 24 infall sources confirmed in previous work. The lines we useto track gas infall motions are HCO+ (1-0) and H13CO+ (1-0). All 24 sourcesshow HCO+ emissions, while 18 sources show H13CO+ emissions. The HCO+integrated intensity maps of 17 sources show clear clumpy structures; for theH13CO+ line, 15 sources show clumpy structures. We estimated the column densityof HCO+ and H13CO+ using the RADEX radiation transfer code, and the obtained[HCO+]/[H2] and [H13CO+]/[HCO+] of these sources are about 10^-11 ~ 10^-7 and10^-3~1, respectively. Based on the asymmetry of the line profile of the HCO+,we distinguish these sources: 19 sources show blue asymmetric profiles, and theother sources show red profiles or symmetric peak profiles. For eight sourcesthat have double-peaked blue line profiles and signal-to-noise ratios greaterthan 10, the RATRAN model is used to fit their HCO^+ (1-0) lines, and toestimate their infall parameters. The mean Vin of these sources are 0.3 ~ 1.3km/s, and the Min are about 10^-3 ~ 10^-4 Msun/yr , which are consistent withthe results of intermediate or massive star formation in previous studies. TheVin estimated from the Myers model are 0.1 ~ 1.6 km/s, and the Min are within10^-3 ~ 10^-5 Msun/yr. In addition, some identified infall sources show otherstar-forming activities, such as outflows and maser emissions. Especially forthose sources with a double-peaked blue asymmetric profile, most of them haveboth infall and outflow evidence.
