Commodity storing and delivering device and method for vending machine

Abstract

A commodity storing and delivering device and a method for a vending machine belong to the field of vending machines. The commodity storing and delivering device comprises a sliding rod, a front support, a rear support, a fuse and a controller. The sliding rod is obliquely arranged between the front support and the rear support in the mode of being low in front and high in back; the fuse is arranged at the front end of the sliding rod; and the controller is used for controlling the on-off of the fuse. The commodity storing and delivering device enables the commodity to move downwards automatically in the obliquely-arranged sliding rod by utilizing the gravity gliding principle, and enables the commodity to fall off by fusing the suspension thread of the commodity, so as to finish the delivery of the commodity. The controller controls the storage and the delivery of the commodity according to preset method and procedures. The invention solves the problems that the conventional vending machine is complicated in structure, adopts more parts, and is poor in reliability and small in storage space through the relatively-simple device and the method.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of automatic vending machines, in particular to a device and method for storing and paying commodities in automatic vending machines. Background technique [0002] In the prior art, the storage and payment of goods in the vending machine mainly depends on the mechanical device driven by the electric motor. The general structure of the current automatic vending machine is that the commodity storage and dispensing device is composed of several cargo lanes, and a spiral-shaped shelf driven by a motor is installed on each cargo lane, and the commodities are placed in the intervals of the spiral-shaped shelves in turn. When a customer purchases a product, the corresponding motor rotates for one revolution, and the selected product is pushed forward by one pitch, and the frontmost product is pushed down to the delivery port and handed over to the customer. [0003] In the prior art, due to the complex mechanical struct...
