[0002] In supermarkets, we often see that when checking out after shopping, we need to go to the cashier to settle the goods. There are many kinds of goods in the supermarket. There are goods that can be paid directly by scanning the code, and there are some goods that need to be weighed first, and then the price is calculated, and then the goods are settled. When settling the above-mentioned goods, generally a vending machine is required, which can weigh the goods, and then display the specific price through the computer connected to it, and then finally all the prices of the goods are calculated uniformly, and then the corresponding scanning payment device is used for the final settlement. In this process, a weighing machine, a cash register, a cash register box used in conjunction with the cash register, and a scanning payment station are needed.

[0003] For some of the above-mentioned devices used in the commodity settlement process, in the existing use, each device is in a state of being separated from each other and running independently. For the settlement of commodities, staff are required to manually control it to pass through each device in turn for corresponding operations. The degree of automation is low, which leads to the problem of frequent congestion in the checkout counter. In addition, most of the devices for weighing commodities in supermarkets are distributed in multiple locations in the supermarket. It is necessary to equip additional staff to operate each weighing machine, which will increase the operating cost of the supermarket. In addition, the cash register box of the general cash register is simply set on the inside of the cash register, and it is not protected for safety. Once encountering danger, there is a lack of corresponding anti-theft devices and the safety is insufficient. That is, the existing supermarket vending machines lack intelligent cashiering, safety and other problems. Therefore, it is necessary to design a technical solution that can solve the above problems.
