Early warning device and early warning method based on vending machine

Abstract

The invention provides an early warning device based on an automatic vending machine and a method thereof. The early warning device includes an MCU, a host computer or a background server, at least one sensor, a recording module, an analysis module, an early warning module, a standard single product weight module, and a user identity identification module. The method includes the steps that (1) the sensor collects the status data in real time and provides the status data to the MCU; (2) the recording module stores the status data; (3) the analysis module determines whether there is an abnormalcondition according to the status data analysis and sending the abnormal condition to the early warning module if there is an abnormal condition; and (4) the early warning module determines the earlywarning level based on the abnormal condition and sends the early warning level to the host computer or the background server. With the above-mentioned early warning device and method, device and user behavior analysis is conducted to obtain the early warning level of the device in the abnormal condition, and an early warning signal is sent to the upper computer or the background server to facilitate maintenance personnel to deal with the abnormal condition in time, avoid further damage to the automatic vending machine, and meet the low-cost operating requirement of the automatic vending machine.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of automatic vending systems, in particular to an early warning device and an early warning method based on automatic vending machines.
