Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of vending cabinets, and more particularly to a vending cabinet for displaying items. Background Art

[0002] Vending cabinets have become an important way of commodity retail in public places. Unattended vending cabinets (or self-service vending cabinets) can greatly enhance users' willingness to purchase, expand the time dimension of users' consumption, and provide a continuous and stable sales channel for merchants. By adding a touch screen, buttons or scanners to the smart vending cabinet to select the items that the user wants to buy, and using cash or mobile payment methods for payment, the smart vending cabinet can also be turned into a vending machine.

[0003] Existing vending cabinets include a cabinet body. A plurality of placing plates are arranged inside the cabinet body. A groove is formed in the inner bottom surface of the cabinet body. A through hole is formed in the inner side surface of the groove, and a blocking plate is arranged in the through hole.

[0004] In the above technology, when a user purchases an item, the item falls from the placing plate into the through hole. Since the distance between the placing plate above the cabinet body and the inner bottom surface of the cabinet body is relatively high, when the item falls from the placing plate, there is a high possibility that the item will be damaged when it falls. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In order to improve the problem that when an item falls from the placing plate, it is easy for the item to be damaged when it falls, the present application provides a vending cabinet for displaying items.

[0006] The vending cabinet for displaying items provided by the present application adopts the following technical solutions: A vending cabinet for displaying items, including a cabinet body, a cabinet door is arranged on the front end surface of the cabinet body, a plurality of placing plates are arranged inside the cabinet body, and the plurality of placing plates are arranged at equal intervals along the height direction of the cabinet body. It is characterized in that: a groove is formed in the inner bottom surface of the cabinet body, a through hole is formed in the inner side surface of the groove, a blocking plate is rotatably arranged in the through hole, a buffer plate is arranged on the inner bottom surface of the groove, a plurality of buffer springs are fixed to the bottom surface of the buffer plate, and the bottom ends of the buffer springs are fixed to the inner bottom surface of the groove.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solutions, when a user purchases an item inside the cabinet body, the item inside the cabinet body falls from the placing plate onto the buffer plate in the groove. By arranging buffer springs below the buffer plate, when the item falls onto the buffer plate, the buffer plate buffers the impact force of the item falling onto the buffer plate under the elastic force of the buffer springs, thereby reducing the possibility of the item being damaged when it falls from the placing plate.

[0008] Preferably, a push plate is provided on the top surface of the buffer plate. The bottom surface of the push plate is in contact with the top surface of the buffer plate. Sliders are fixed on both end surfaces of the push plate. Sliding grooves are formed on the opposite inner side surfaces of the groove. The sliders are slidably arranged in the sliding grooves. A driving mechanism for driving the push plate to move towards the direction close to the blocking plate is provided on the cabinet body.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, when the items on the placing plate fall on the buffer plate, the driving mechanism drives the push plate to move towards the direction close to the blocking plate, so that the push plate pushes the items to the through opening, facilitating the user to take out the items when opening the blocking plate.

[0010] Preferably, mounting grooves are formed on the opposite inner side surfaces of the groove. The driving mechanism includes a screw rod rotatably mounted between the opposite inner side surfaces of the mounting grooves. Moving blocks are fixed on both end surfaces of the push plate. The moving blocks are arranged in the mounting grooves. The screw rod passes through the moving blocks and is in threaded connection with the moving blocks. A driving component for driving the two screw rods to rotate is provided on the cabinet body.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, when the items fall on the buffer plate, the driving component is started. The driving component drives the two screw rods to rotate simultaneously. The screw rods drive the moving blocks to move. The moving blocks drive the push plate to move towards the direction close to the blocking plate, so that the push plate pushes the items to the through opening.

[0012] Preferably, synchronous belt wheels are arranged on the two screw rods. A synchronous belt is wound around the two synchronous belt wheels. A second motor is arranged on the inner side surface of one of the mounting grooves. The output shaft of the second motor is fixedly connected with one end of the screw rod.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, when the items fall on the buffer plate, the second motor is started. The output shaft of the second motor drives the screw rod to rotate. The screw rod drives the synchronous belt wheel to rotate. The synchronous belt wheel drives the synchronous belt to rotate. The synchronous belt drives the other synchronous belt wheel to rotate, so that the other synchronous belt wheel drives the other screw rod to rotate, enabling the two screw rods to rotate simultaneously, and the screw rods drive the moving blocks to move, and the moving blocks drive the push plate to move.

[0014] Preferably, ropes are fixed on both sides of the side surface of the blocking plate close to the push plate. Two parallel side plates are fixed on both sides of the inner side surface of the cabinet body. Through holes are formed on both sides of the inner side surface of the cabinet body. A rotating shaft is rotatably mounted between the two side plates. A winding roller is arranged on the rotating shaft. One end of the rope far from the blocking plate passes through the through hole and is fixed on the outer peripheral surface of the winding roller. A driving member for driving the rotating shaft to rotate is provided on the cabinet body.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, when the blocking plate is opened, the blocking plate pulls the pull rope out from the winding roller. When the item is taken out, the blocking plate is loosened, and the rotating shaft rotates in the opposite direction under the elastic force of the driving member, so that the rotating shaft drives the winding roller to rotate, and the winding roller rolls the pull rope on the winding roller. When the winding roller rolls up the pull rope, the pull rope drives the blocking plate to move, thereby causing the blocking plate to close the opening.

[0016] Preferably, the driving member includes a coil spring sleeved on the rotating shaft, one end of the coil spring is fixedly connected to the inner side surface of the cabinet, and the other end of the coil spring is fixedly connected to the outer peripheral surface of the rotating shaft.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, when the blocking plate is opened, the blocking plate pulls the pull rope out of the winding roller. When the item is taken out, the blocking plate is loosened, and the rotating shaft rotates in the opposite direction under the elastic force of the winding spring, thereby causing the rotating shaft to drive the winding roller to rotate.

[0018] Preferably, the placement plate includes a storage plate, a top surface of the storage plate is provided with a plurality of through grooves, two transmission rollers are arranged in the through grooves, the outer circumferences of the two transmission rollers are sleeved with conveyor belts, both ends of the transmission rollers are provided with mounting plates, the mounting plates are rotatably connected to the transmission rollers, the top surface of the mounting plate is fixed to the bottom surface of the storage plate, a motor 1 is arranged on the side surface of one of the mounting plates, and the output shaft of the motor 1 is fixedly connected to one end of one of the transmission rollers.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, when a user purchases an item on the placement board, the motor 1 under the corresponding item is started, the output shaft of the motor 1 drives the transmission roller to rotate, and the transmission roller drives the conveyor belt to rotate, so that the conveyor belt drives the item to move, so that the item falls from the placement board onto the buffer board.

[0020] Preferably, a sponge pad is fixed to the top surface of the buffer plate.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, a sponge pad is arranged on the buffer plate, thereby further protecting the objects dropped on the buffer plate and reducing the possibility of the objects being damaged.

[0022] Preferably, a magnet 1 is fixed to the side of the blocking plate close to the push plate, and a magnet 2 is fixed to the side of the cabinet, and the magnet 1 is attracted to the magnet 2.

[0023] By adopting the above technical solution, magnet one is set on the blocking plate and magnet two is set on the cabinet. When the blocking plate is closed, magnet one and magnet two are attracted to each other, thereby reducing the possibility of the blocking plate opening when the coil spring fails to have elastic force during long-term use.

[0024] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects: 1. When the user purchases an item in the cabinet, the item in the cabinet falls from the placement board onto the buffer board in the groove. By arranging a buffer spring below the buffer board, when the item falls onto the buffer board, the buffer board buffers the impact force of the item falling onto the buffer board under the elastic force of the buffer spring, thereby reducing the possibility of the item being damaged when falling from the placement board; 2. When the item falls onto the buffer board, start the second motor. The output shaft of the second motor drives the screw rod to rotate. The screw rod drives the synchronous pulley to rotate. The synchronous pulley drives the synchronous belt to rotate. The synchronous belt drives another synchronous pulley to rotate, so that the other synchronous pulley drives another screw rod to rotate, thereby enabling the two screw rods to rotate simultaneously, driving the moving block to move by the screw rod, and the moving block drives the push plate to move, so that the push plate pushes the item to the through opening; 3. When the blocking plate is opened, the blocking plate pulls out the pull rope from the winding roller. When the item is taken out, release the blocking plate. The rotating shaft rotates reversely under the elastic force of the driving member, so that the rotating shaft drives the winding roller to rotate. The winding roller winds the pull rope on the winding roller. When the winding roller winds the pull rope, the pull rope drives the blocking plate to move, thereby closing the through opening by the blocking plate. Description of the Drawings
