Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of vending equipment, and in particular to a picking system and a vending machine. Background Art

[0002] With the improvement of income level, people's pursuit of flexibility, convenience, speed and self-service is the main reason for the rapid development of vending machines. However, when the vending machine sells lighter items, since lighter items placed on a general aisle will be too light, they may fall over or be easily shipped when the aisle transmits the items to the pickup device, and therefore, in existing equipment, lighter or too light items are generally suspended using a hanging aisle; when picking up the items, the pickup tray moves to the hanging aisle, and when the hanging aisle ships the items, the items fall onto the pickup tray due to the rotation of the aisle, and the shipping end of the aisle needs to be extended to ensure that the items fall onto the pickup tray, but the extension of the shipping end of the hanging aisle will interfere with the operation of the pickup tray to each item for extracting the items, therefore, in the prior art, a guide plate with a guiding function needs to be provided at the lower end of the hanging aisle, and when the items fall, they fall onto the guide plate and are guided to the pickup tray by the guide plate; since the sliding direction of the items is uncertain when the items fall onto the guide plate, the risk of the items not being able to fall into the pickup tray is increased, and it takes a long time for the items to fall off the hanging aisle and finally fall into the pickup tray, and the picking efficiency is not high.

[0003] At the same time, when the picking pallet moves to the aisle to pick up goods, it can only pick up goods from one aisle. When it is necessary to pick up goods from another aisle, it is necessary to control the picking device to move to that aisle to pick up goods. Even if the other aisle is next to the aisle that has just been picked up or after the picking pallet picks up goods from one aisle, there is no need to move the picking pallet to pick up goods from another aisle, and the goods in the aisle that need to be picked up can fall into the loading range of the picking device, it is necessary to control the picking device to move to this aisle again to pick up the goods, and the picking efficiency is low. Summary of the invention

At the same time, the first driving device is fixedly connected to the support frame 2, and the slider 6 is movably sleeved on the slide bar 19 on the support block to slide, that is, the first driving motor 14 is fixedly connected to the support frame 2, and the driving groove 151 provided on the paddle 15 is sleeved with the sleeve rod 18 provided on the slider 6, and the rotation of the paddle 15 drives the sleeve rod 18 to move and drives the slider 6 to extend and retract along the slide bar 19, thereby driving the toggle rod 10 to telescopic movement. The third driving device is connected to the support frame 2, and is used to drive the support frame 2 to move left and right, thereby driving the toggle rod 10 to move left and right on the pickup tray 9.

[0034] Furthermore, the third driving device includes a third driving motor 7 and a rack 21, the rack 21 is fixedly arranged on the pickup tray 9, the rotating shaft of the third driving motor 7 is meshed with the rack 21, and the third driving motor 7 is fixedly connected to the support frame 2; when it is necessary to drive the lever 10 to the cargo lane where the item 8 is located, the rotating shaft of the third driving motor 7 is required to rotate so as to drive the support frame 2 to drive the lever 10 to move left and right, so as to move the lever 10 to the cargo lane where the item 8 is located, and achieve stable operation of the lever 10. Another structure of the third driving device includes a third driving motor 7 and a transmission belt 22; the third driving motor 7 is transmission-connected to the conveyor belt, and the third driving motor 7 is connected to the pickup tray 9; the support frame 2 is fixedly connected to the conveyor belt. Preferably, the support frame 2 is movably sleeved on the guide rod 23, and the guide rod 23 is arranged on the pickup tray 9, so as to keep the support frame stable in operation and simple in structure.

[0035] The items 8 in the cargo channel are always pushed by the push block 4 to the slot 31. When picking up the items, the pickup tray 9 is driven to the cargo channel of the items 8 to be picked up by the transversely driven motor and the longitudinally driven second drive motor 16; the third drive motor 7 drives the support frame 2 to move, thereby driving the lever 10 to move to the cargo channel where the items 8 to be picked up are located, and the first drive motor 14 drives the slider 6 to extend, thereby driving the lever 10 to extend out of the pickup tray 9, that is, the lever 10 extends into the slot 31; the second drive motor 16 drives the pickup tray 9 to move longitudinally, thereby driving the extended lever 10 The item 8 is pushed away from the cargo aisle along the push groove 31, that is, the second drive motor 16 drives the pickup tray 9 to move longitudinally, thereby driving the push rod 10 set on the pickup tray 9 to move, and the extended push rod 10 pushes the item 8 in the cargo aisle upward at the push groove 31 to move out of the cargo aisle and into the pickup tray 9, and the second item 8 is pushed to the push groove 31 by the push block 4 to wait for the next time to be pushed away, and the first drive motor 14 drives the push rod 10 to retract; the second drive motor 16 drives the pickup tray 9 to rise and leave the cargo aisle or descend to leave the cargo aisle or leave the cargo aisle in other ways to complete the pickup.

[0036] The specific structure of the cargo lane is that the cargo lane includes a cargo lane body 1 for carrying articles 8, the cargo lane body 1 is provided with a delivery end 3, the cargo lane body 1 is provided with a pushing portion for pushing the articles 8 to the delivery end 3, the delivery end 3 is provided with a pull-out groove 31 which is in communication with the articles 8 carried or contained by the cargo lane body 1, so that the pull-out groove 31 directly leads to the articles 8, and can contact the articles 8 and pull them out when being pulled out; the delivery end 3 is provided with a pull-out groove 31 which is in communication with the articles 8 carried or contained by the cargo lane body 1, which can also be understood as a pull-out groove 31 which is in communication with the space for carrying or containing the articles 8, and the space for carrying the articles 8 includes the space occupied by the flat plate for carrying the articles 8 or the box-shaped space for carrying the articles 8 The space occupied by 8 or the space that can be provided to carry the article 8 can be sufficient; the cargo lane body 1 carries the article 8 for sale, and its structure can be a plate body, or a box-shaped structure with a hollow top for carrying the article 8, or other structures, as long as it can carry the article 8 and can keep the expelling part in contact with the article 8 through the expelling groove 31; the pushing part is arranged on the cargo lane body 1 and can always push the article 8 tightly to the delivery end 3, so that when the front one of the goods at the delivery end 3 is taken out, the article 8 is always pushed and squeezed to the delivery end 3 to be taken out next time; the pushing part keeps the articles 8 close to each other when a piece of goods is taken out of the cargo lane. The expelling groove 31 of the delivery end 3 is connected with the space for accommodating goods of the cargo lane body 1, so that the expelling part leads to the article 8 through the expelling groove 31 so that the article 8 can be expelled from the cargo lane body 1 through the expelling groove 31, and then falls into the pickup tray or the pickup port, completing the pickup process.

[0037] Specifically, the cargo channel body 1 includes a front baffle 12 and a bottom plate 11, which are fixedly connected and located at the delivery end 3, that is, the bottom plate 11 is used to carry the items 8, and the pushing portion always pushes the items 8 to the front baffle 12, waiting for the items 8 at the delivery end 3 to be pushed away next time, and the items 8 are loaded between the pushing portion and the front baffle 12, which can stably keep the items 8 on the bottom plate 11 and maintain the stability of delivery; the front baffle 12 and the bottom plate 11 are both provided with interconnected push grooves 31, that is, the push grooves 31 on the front baffle 12 and the bottom plate 11 are connected. The height of the front baffle 12 is shorter than the height of the carried article 8, and there is a height difference, which can facilitate the article 8 against the front baffle 12 to be pushed by the article 8 behind it. When the article 8 against the front baffle 12 is pushed until the bottom end of the article 8 is flush with the uppermost end of the front baffle 12, the part of the article 8 against the rear side that is higher than the front baffle 12 acts as a thrust to drive the article 8 to fall into a predetermined position, such as a pickup tray 9 or a pickup warehouse, etc.; the bottom plate 11 carries the article 8, and when the pushing portion pushes the article 8 forward, the front baffle 12 stops the article 8 and keeps the article 8 on the bottom plate 11. The pushing groove 31 is connected so that when the article 8 is pushed away, the pushing groove 31 on the bottom plate 11 allows it to be pushed away from the lower end of the article 8, and the pushing groove 31 on the front baffle 12 keeps the trajectory that the article 8 can be pushed upward all the time. The combination of the two can more easily push the article 8 upward from the lower end, thereby improving the stability of the article 8 being pushed away from the cargo channel. At the same time, the delivery end 3 is provided with a guide step 32, so that when the pushing portion always pushes the article 8 to the front baffle 12, the article 8 next to the front baffle 12 is lifted upward relative to other articles 8, which is conducive to the removal of the article 8.

[0038] Specifically, the pushing part includes a pushing block 4 and a coil spring 5, one end of the coil spring 5 is connected to the pushing block 4, and the other end is connected to the bottom plate 11 and is located at the delivery end 3; the pushing block 4 is movably sleeved on the bottom plate 11, that is, a card slot is provided on both sides of the pushing block 4, the bottom plate 11 is clamped, and the card slot is movably sleeved on the clamping edge, and it can also be composed of other movable sleeve structures, which are not listed one by one; the pulling force of the coil spring 5 drives the pushing block 4 to push the objects 8 to the delivery end 3, and as the number of objects 8 decreases, the elastic force of the coil spring 5 can continuously drive the pushing block 4 to push the objects 8, thereby keeping the objects 8 driven to the pushing groove 31, and keeping the objects 8 always in the pushing groove 31 to be pushed away next time, instead of requiring a motor for each cargo aisle, the cost is reduced, and one cargo aisle can also adapt to objects 8 of different specifications, thereby improving the adaptability of the cargo aisle. At the same time, the height of the push block 4 is higher than the height of the front baffle 12, so that when the items 8 on the bottom plate 11 are pushed out to the last item, since the height of the push block 4 is higher than the height of the front baffle 12, there is a height difference. Therefore, when the last item 8 is pushed out, the item 8 against the front baffle 12 is pushed until the bottom end of the item 8 is flush with the top end of the front baffle 12, the part of the push block 4 against the item 8 behind it that is higher than the front baffle 12 acts as a thrust to drive the item 8 to fall into a predetermined position, such as a pickup tray 9 or a pickup bin, etc.

[0039] Furthermore, the shielding plate 20 is also included. The shielding plate 20 is arranged on the upper part of the delivery end 3. The shielding plate 20 is provided with a shielding end 201 and an inclined end; the shielding end 201 is located at the upper end of the item 8 at the delivery end 3, and the inclined end 202 is located at the delivery side of the item 8 of the slot 31. When picking up the goods, because the push block 4 pushes the item 8 to the slot 31, and the items 8 are squeezed tightly when pushing, when the lever 10 pushes the item 8 away from the slot 31, it is easy to pull out the second item, so the shielding end 201 plays a role in shielding the second item 8 from being pulled out, and the inclined surface of the inclined end 202 faces the end of the pickup tray 9, that is, the inlet end of the pickup tray 9, so that when the first item 8 is pulled out, it is driven by the elastic force of the push block 4 to bounce into the pickup tray 9, and the inclined end 202 plays a guiding role, guiding the item 8 not to move upward and to move toward the inlet direction of the pickup tray 9.

[0040] The items 8 in the cargo channel are driven by the coil spring 5 to push the push block 4 to move the items 8 to the slot 31. When picking up the items, the cargo pick-up tray 9 is driven by the transverse drive motor and the longitudinal drive second drive motor 16 to the cargo channel where the items 8 to be picked up are located; the third drive motor 7 drives the support frame 2 to move to the cargo channel, that is, the lever 10 is driven by the third drive motor 7 to the cargo channel where the items to be picked up 8 are located, and finally the first drive motor 14 drives the slider 6 to extend and run, thereby driving the lever 10 to extend out of the cargo channel 9, that is, the lever 10 extends into the slot 31; the second drive motor 16 drives the cargo pick-up tray 9 to move, thereby driving the extended lever 10 to move the items 8 away from the cargo channel along the slot 31, that is, the second drive motor 16 drives the cargo pick-up tray 9 to move longitudinally, thereby driving the lever 10 set on the cargo pick-up tray 9 to move, and the extended lever 10 is in the slot 31. The first item 8 in the cargo aisle is pushed upward away from the front baffle 12 of the cargo aisle bottom plate 11. Under the action of the item 8 higher than the front baffle 12 or the push block 4 higher than the front baffle 12, the first item 8 falls out of the cargo aisle. At this time, the second item is pressed against the first item under the action of the push block 4 to produce friction. When the second item is pushed out along with the first item, the blocking end 201 blocks the second item 8 from being pushed out. Since the first item 8 has been pushed out and there is a gap left, the second item 8 is pushed down by the push block 4 to the pushing groove 31. After the first item 8 is pulled out, it tends to be thrown upward, but under the resistance of the inclined surface end 202, the first item 8 falls into the pickup tray 9. The first driving device drives the driving lever 10 to retract, completing the picking. The horizontal driving motor drives the pickup tray 9 to run to the pickup port.

[0041] The present invention also relates to a vending machine, comprising the above-mentioned picking system.

[0042] The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, rather than to limit the same. Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the aforementioned embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that the technical solutions described in the aforementioned embodiments may still be modified, or some of the technical features may be replaced by equivalents. However, these modifications or replacements do not deviate the essence of the corresponding technical solutions from the spirit and scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
