AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

However, periodicals, books and flat parts have different surface materials, packaging forms and roughness, and the weight is different, so the use of suction cups cannot guarantee the success of all kinds of objects every time.

At the same time, the number of types of newspapers and periodicals placed on the shelves of the vending machine is fixed and cannot be more than the set value of the vending machine.

Moreover, the use of three-dimensional mechanical arms and vacuum suction cups increases its manufacturing and maintenance costs.

[0005] The vertical spiral propulsion type newspaper vending machine adopts the structure of the existing automatic vending machine. The newspapers and magazines are placed vertically and vertically according to the same type, and different types are arranged side by side in the upper, lower, left, and right planes in a row. The book is pushed out and falls to the outlet. The magazines sent out in this way are often stuck in the delivery channel due to their unstable falling trajectory. The shelf needs to change its structure according to the size of the items, and it is inconvenient to operate when placing the goods on the shelf

[0006] It can be seen from the above that the existing automatic vending machines are not suitable for the sale of flat items such as periodicals, newspapers, magazines, books, etc., mainly because the storage and output devices of these automatic vending machines cannot meet the unique performance requirements of such items

[0007] In addition, in today's Internet age, online shopping is a new type of non-store retail industry, and it is a shopping method that has been accepted by customers. Since the current online shopping adopts the "face-to-face" delivery method, the operation of online stores cost increase

However, the existing automatic vending machines are not suitable for the storage of goods ordered online and the flexible configuration of the number of types such as periodicals, books, and flat packages.
