Vending mechanism of vending machine

Abstract

The invention discloses a vending mechanism of a vending machine. The vending mechanism comprises a goods taking unit and a goods delivering unit. The goods taking unit comprises a lifting platform and a goods taking device comprising a base plate, a worm motor fixing plate, a front damper and a friction wheel. The friction wheel is arranged at one end of the base plate through friction wheel fixing plates; friction wheel transmission shafts, intermediate shafts, push rods and transmission shafts are inserted to the friction wheel fixing plates, and a friction wheel clamping device and an optoelectronic switch are arranged under the base plate; a friction wheel rotating driving device, a damper control device and a goods sensing driving device are arranged on the worm motor fixing plate; and the goods delivering unit is a rotary goods bucket. By the adoption of the lifting platform, a motor is not needed to be arranged in a goods aisle, manufacturing cost of products is effectively reduced, aisle failure rate is reduced, and the rotary goods bucket can bring convenience to manufacture and installation of a warehouse, and is reliable in performance.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an automatic vending machine, in particular to a vending mechanism of the automatic vending machine. Background technique [0002] Vending machine is a new form of commercial retail, because it can realize unmanned automatic vending, no need for manual on-site management, not limited by time and place, it reduces sales costs, improves efficiency, and facilitates transactions. more and more widely used. [0003] With the development of vending machines today, its functions are increasing day by day. There are many ways to transport goods. The most common way is to install motors at the rear end of each goods lane, and the goods will be transported to the edge of the goods lane through the motor. , falling directly to the exit, this structure is relatively bulky, takes up a lot of space, and a motor is installed behind each cargo, the production cost is relatively high, the manufacturing of cargo lanes is complicated, and the fa...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] With the development of vending machines today, its functions are increasing day by day. There are many ways to transport goods. The most common way is to install motors at the rear end of each goods lane, and the goods are transported to the edge of the goods lane through the motor. , falling directly to the exit, this structure is relatively bulky and takes up a lot of space, and a motor is installed behind each cargo, the production cost is relatively high, the manufacturing of cargo lanes is complicated, and the failure rate is greatly increased

This kind of conveying method has fragile items, and at the same time, it has certain restrictions on the types of articles. In view of the defects of this conveying method, a lifting structure that can receive goods has appeared on the market. The position of the shelf passively receives the goods, and then transports them to a short distance from the pick-up warehouse. When the lift platform turns over, the goods fall from the lift platform into the pick-up warehouse

Although this kind of structure can avoid the phenomenon that the goods are seriously damaged, the lifting platform can only receive the goods passively, and motors still need to be installed in each cargo lane, and the manufacturing cost is high. Complex structure, high failure rate

[0004] The delivery warehouse is an indispensable part of the vending machine, which is convenient for customers to take out the delivered goods from the delivery warehouse window. Most of the delivery warehouses of the existing vending machines are welded, and multiple hoardings are welded into a four-sided Close the box body, and the pick-up compartment door is hinged on the left and right side panels of the pick-up box. With the pick-up opening device of this structure, it is easy to steal the items in the vending machine. At the same time, when the pick-up compartment is welded, The operation is more troublesome, and the welding points are concentrated on the outside, which affects the appearance of the whole machine

In addition, this kind of shipping warehouse is mostly set at the bottom of the whole machine, which is inconvenient when picking up the goods. It requires customers to bend down and squat down to get the goods, which brings inconvenience to users.
