Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of automatic printing vending machines for mobile phone cases, in particular to an automatic printing vending machine for mobile phone cases. Background Art

[0002] Self-service vending machines are a common form of commercial automation. Unrestricted by time and location, they save manpower and facilitate transactions. They represent a new form of retail, often referred to as 24-hour mini-supermarkets. As the market evolves, vending machines are becoming increasingly diverse, including those that automatically print phone cases.

[0003] Existing mobile phone case automatic printing vending machines include: Application No.: 202320538007.3, patent name is a Chinese utility model patent for a mobile phone case printer with a mechanical flipping and grabbing device; and Application No.: 202420706225.8, patent name is a Chinese utility model patent for an automatic printing mechanism for mobile phone cases.

[0004] The two technical solutions for the automatic printing vending machines for mobile phone cases both use a storage device to store mobile phone cases. Since the storage device can only hold objects of the same size, and the thickness of mobile phone cases is generally the same, a groove for accommodating mobile phone cases is opened on the fixture, and a limiter is set between the groove and the inner wall of the fixture to limit the length and width of the mobile phone case respectively. When fixing the mobile phone case, the mobile phone case cover is buckled on the fixture to complete the fixation. The transporting device picks up the fixture equipped with the mobile phone case to be printed and sends it to the positioning device for positioning. The printing device prints the mobile phone case. After printing is completed, the transporting device sends the mobile phone case and the fixture to the delivery port together. Although both technical solutions can complete the printing of mobile phone cases well, the following defects still exist:

[0005] First, since a large number of mobile phone cases are stored in the storage device, each mobile phone case needs to be assembled using a fixture, which increases the cost of use for customers;

[0006] Secondly, the positioning device can only fix fixtures of the same size and has a single adaptability;

[0007] Finally, after printing is completed, the phone case will be sent to the shipping port together with the fixture. The user needs to send the fixture to the recycling device for recycling by himself, and there is a risk of losing the fixture.

[0008] In view of this, it is necessary to propose a new technical solution to solve the above technical problems. Summary of the Invention

[0051] Example

[0052] See Figure 1-12 As shown, the automatic printing vending machine for mobile phone cases includes a box body 1, the box body 1 has a delivery port 11, and further includes:

[0053] The storage device 2 is installed in the box body 1 and includes a limiting mechanism 21 capable of adjusting the size of a limiting space 22, wherein the limiting space 22 is used to place a mobile phone case 6 to be printed;

[0054] A transport device 3 , mounted on the box 1 , for transporting a mobile phone case 6 ;

[0055] A positioning device 4 is installed on the box body 1 and includes a positioning mechanism 41 capable of adjusting the size of a station 42 to be printed, wherein the station 42 to be printed is used to place a mobile phone case 6;

[0056] The printing device 5 is installed on the box body 1 and is used to print the mobile phone shell 6 located at the positioning device 4.

[0057] Mobile phone cases 6 of various sizes can be stored through the limiting mechanism 21, and mobile phone cases 6 of various sizes can be fixed through the positioning mechanism 41, thereby avoiding the use of special mobile phone case 6 clamps. The structure is simple, the customer's usage cost is reduced, the adaptability is strong, and there is no risk of losing the clamp.

[0058] See Figure 2-6 As shown, in a further specific embodiment, the storage device 2 also includes a storage rack 23, and the storage rack 23 is installed with a plurality of mounting plates 24, and each mounting plate 24 is respectively installed with a plurality of partitions 25 and a plurality of the limiting mechanisms 21, and the mounting plate 24, a partition 25 and a limiting mechanism 21 form a limiting space 22, and the limiting mechanism 21 can be adjusted and installed on the mounting plate 24.

[0059] By adjusting the limiting mechanism 21 installed on the mounting plate 24, the size of the limiting space 22 can be expanded or reduced. The structure is simple and the adjustment is convenient. It can adapt to mobile phone cases 6 of various sizes, reduce production costs, and enhance versatility.

[0060] See Figure 4-6 As shown, in a further specific embodiment, the limiting mechanism 21 includes a first limiting component 211 and a second limiting component 212, and the mounting plate 24 is provided with a first limiting groove 241 and a second limiting groove 242 in each of the limiting spaces 22. The first limiting component 211 is movably installed in the first limiting groove 241, and the second limiting component 212 is movably installed in the second limiting groove 242. One side of the partition 25 extends inward to form a limiting plate 26 for limiting the position of the mobile phone case 6, and the limiting space 22 is formed between the mounting plate 24, the partition 25, the limiting plate 26, the first limiting component 211 and the second limiting component 212.

[0061] As a preferred embodiment, the first limiting component 211 of this embodiment includes a first limiting member 2111, a first magnetic member 2112 and a first fastener 2113. The first fastener 2113 passes through the first limiting groove 241 and the first magnetic member 2112 in sequence and is connected to the first limiting member 2111. The first limiting member 2111 is magnetically mounted on the mounting plate 24 through the first magnetic member 2112.

[0062] The second limiting component 212 of this embodiment includes a second limiting member 2121, a second magnetic member 2122 and a second fastener 2123. The second fastener 2123 passes through the second limiting groove 242 and the second magnetic member 2122 in sequence and is connected to the second limiting member 2121. The second limiting member 2121 is magnetically mounted on the mounting plate 24 through the second magnetic member 2122.

[0063] In other specific embodiments, the first limiting assembly 211 and the second limiting assembly 212 may also be a combination of screws and limiting rods, that is, the limiting rods are limited in the first limiting groove 241 and the second limiting groove 242 by screws.

[0064] In another specific embodiment, the first limiting component 211 and the second limiting component 212 can also be a combination of screws, springs 31432 and limiting rods, that is, the screws and the limiting rods are connected and fixed to the mounting plate 24 by the springs 31432, the first end of the spring 31432 abuts against the screws or the limiting rods, and the second end of the spring 31432 abuts against the mounting plate 24.

[0065] It should be noted that the first magnetic member 2112 and the second magnetic member 2122 are both magnets, and the first fastener 2113 and the second fastener 2123 are both screws.

[0066] The first limiting groove 241 guides the adjustment direction of the first limiting assembly 211 , and the second limiting groove 242 guides the adjustment direction of the second limiting assembly 212 , so that the size of the limiting space 22 can be adjusted more accurately.

[0067] like Figure 2 、 Figure 3 As shown, in a further specific embodiment, the conveying device 3 includes a material picking mechanism 31 for conveying the mobile phone case 6 and a moving mechanism 32 for driving the material picking mechanism 31 to move, the material picking mechanism 31 is installed at the output end of the moving mechanism 32, and the moving mechanism 32 is installed on the box body 1.

[0068] like Figure 7-9As shown, in a further specific embodiment, the material-taking mechanism 31 includes a connecting member 311, an adsorption member 312 and an air source 313. The first end of the connecting member 311 is installed on the output end of the moving mechanism 32, and the adsorption member 312 is installed on the second end of the connecting member 311. The air source 313 is installed on the box body 1 or an external air source 313 is selected. The output end of the air source 313 is connected to the adsorption member 312. When the moving mechanism 32 drives the adsorption end of the adsorption member 312 to fit with the mobile phone case 6, the air source 313 draws away the air between the adsorption member 312 and the mobile phone case 6 to complete the fixation of the mobile phone case 6.

[0069] The mobile phone case 6 in the storage device 2 is sucked by the adsorption component. There is no need to use a fixing fixture for fixing the mobile phone case 6, nor is there a need to pick up the mobile phone case 6 from both sides. The structure is simple and the efficiency of picking up is improved.

[0070] In a further specific embodiment, the retrieving mechanism 31 further includes a detection assembly 314, which includes a detection base 3141, a sensing member 3142, and a trigger assembly 3143. The detection base 3141 is mounted on the connecting member 311, the sensing member 3142 is mounted on the detection base 3141, and the trigger assembly 3143 is penetrated and movably mounted on the detection base 3141. When the retrieving mechanism 31 picks up and fixes the mobile phone case 6, the first end of the trigger assembly 3143 abuts the mobile phone case 6, and the second end of the trigger assembly 3143 rises to the sensing position of the sensing member 3142. With the cooperation of the sensing member 3142 and the trigger assembly 3143, the position of the mobile phone case 6 is sensed, which has a simple structure and strong stability.

[0071] like Figure 9 As shown, in a further specific embodiment, the trigger assembly 3143 includes a trigger member 31431, a spring 31432, and a fixing member 31433. The trigger member 31431 penetrates and is movably mounted on the detection base 3141. The trigger member 31431 is perpendicular to the sensing member 3142. The fixing member 31433 is connected to the first end of the trigger member 31431. The spring 31432 is sleeved on the fixing member 31433 or the trigger member 31431. The first end of the spring 31432 abuts against the fixing member 31433, and the second end of the spring 31432 abuts against the mounting base 43. When the picking mechanism 31 picks up and fixes the mobile phone case 6, the second end of the trigger member 31431 rises to the sensing position of the sensing member 3142.

[0072] It should be noted that the sensing member 3142 of this embodiment uses a proximity sensor, and a photoelectric switch may also be used in other specific embodiments. The position of the mobile phone case 6 is sensed by the cooperation of the trigger member 31431 and the sensing member 3142. Since this technical solution directly senses the mobile phone case 6, when the mobile phone case 6 falls off the material picking mechanism 31, the trigger member 31431 returns to the origin away from the sensing member 3142, and the sensing member 3142 immediately transmits the signal to the control system of the automatic printing vending machine for the mobile phone case 6. The structure is simple and the response is fast.

[0073] like Figure 10-12 As shown, in a further specific embodiment, the positioning device 4 also includes a mounting seat 43, a driving mechanism 44 and a transmission mechanism 45. The upper surface of the mounting seat 43 is provided with the to-be-printed station 42, the driving mechanism 44 is installed in the mounting seat 43, and the output end of the positioning mechanism 41 extends out of the mounting seat 43 to position the mobile phone case 6. The first end of the transmission mechanism 45 is connected to the output end of the driving mechanism 44, and the second end of the transmission mechanism 45 is connected to the positioning mechanism 41, for driving the positioning mechanism 41 to approach or move away from the middle of the mounting seat 43.

[0074] The positioning mechanism 41 is driven by the driving mechanism 44 to move on the mounting seat 43 to expand or reduce the size of the printing station 42, thereby being able to position mobile phone cases 6 of various sizes. The structure is simple and the customer's use cost is reduced.

[0075] In a further specific embodiment, the positioning mechanism 41 includes a first positioning component 411 for positioning the mobile phone case 6 in the width direction and a second positioning component 412 for positioning the mobile phone case 6 in the length direction, and the first positioning component 411 and the second positioning component 412 are respectively installed in the mounting seat 43, and the output end of the first positioning component 411 passes through the mounting seat 43, and the output end of the second positioning component 412 passes through the mounting seat 43. The mounting seat 43 is provided with a first surrounding edge 431 and a second surrounding edge 432 perpendicular to each other, and the printing station 42 is formed between the output end of the first positioning component 411, the output end of the second positioning component 412, the first surrounding edge 431 and the second surrounding edge 432.

[0076] The first and second edges 431, 432 are used to limit the position of the mobile phone case 6 in two directions. It should be noted that the first and second edges 431, 432 are fixed to the upper surface of the mounting base 43 and will not move. The mounting base 43 is provided with a first positioning groove 433 and a second positioning groove 434. The output end of the first positioning component 411 moves within the first positioning groove 433, and the output end of the second positioning component 412 moves within the second positioning groove 434. The first and second positioning grooves 433, 434 limit the movement paths of the first and second positioning components 411, 412. By adjusting the positions of the first and second positioning components 411, 412, the size of the printing station 42 can be adjusted, thereby limiting the position of mobile phone cases 6 of various sizes. It should be noted that the second edge 432 and the second positioning component 412 limit the length direction of the mobile phone case 6, while the first edge 431 and the first positioning component 411 limit the width direction of the mobile phone case 6.

[0077] like Figure 11-12 As shown, in a further specific embodiment, the transmission mechanism 45 includes a first transmission component 451 and a second transmission component 452, the input ends of the first transmission component 451 and the second transmission component 452 are respectively connected to the output ends of the driving mechanism 44, the output end of the first transmission component 451 is connected to the first positioning component 411, and is used to drive the first positioning component 411 close to or away from the middle of the mounting seat 43, and the output end of the second transmission component 452 is connected to the second positioning component 412, and is used to drive the second positioning component 412 close to or away from the middle of the mounting seat 43.

[0078] In a further specific embodiment, a first elastic member 453 is provided at the output end of the first transmission component 451, the first end of the first elastic member 453 is connected to the first transmission component 451, the second end of the first elastic member 453 is connected to the first positioning component 411, and a second elastic member 454 is provided at the output end of the second transmission component 452, the first end of the second elastic member 454 is connected to the second transmission component 452, and the second end of the second elastic member 454 is connected to the second positioning component 412.

[0079] The first elastic member 453 provides the necessary elastic cushioning when the first positioning assembly 411 abuts and positions the mobile phone case 6 to be printed. The second elastic member 454 also provides the necessary elastic cushioning when the second positioning assembly 412 abuts and positions the mobile phone case 6 to be printed. This avoids the conventional practice of using rigid impact to squeeze the mobile phone case 6, which results in uneven printing surfaces during printing and poor print quality.

[0080] As a preferred embodiment, the first elastic member 453 and the second elastic member 454 of this embodiment are both springs 31432. In other specific embodiments, rubber can also be used.

[0081] It should be noted that the second transmission assembly 452 of this embodiment includes a first transmission plate 4521, a second transmission plate 4522, and a guide member 4523. The first transmission plate 4521 is mounted on the output end of the drive mechanism 44, and the second transmission plate 4522 is movably mounted on the bottom of the mounting base 43. The first transmission plate 4521 defines a guide slot 45211. The first end of the guide member 4523 is mounted on the second transmission plate 4522, and the second end of the guide member 4523 extends into the guide slot 45211. The first end of the second elastic member 454 is connected to the second transmission plate 4522, and the angle between the first elastic member 453 and the second elastic member 454 is 45°. Through the arrangement of the first transmission plate 4521, the second transmission plate 4522, the guide member 4523, and the guide slot 45211, the motion trajectory of the first transmission plate 4521 is converted from vertical motion to left-right motion of the third transmission plate. Thus, the first positioning component 411 and the second positioning component 412 are driven by the driving motor to position the two sides of the mobile phone case 6 respectively.
