The subway automatic ticket vending machine with a buffer mechanism at the ticket outlet can protect the tickets released from the ticket outlet through the buffer structure to avoid damage to the corners, and can block the position of the tickets through the buffer plate to prevent the tickets from falling, and can play a basic protective role through the sponge layer to avoid direct contact between the tickets and the buffer plate, and can increase the wear resistance and service life of the sponge layer when in use through the cooperation of the elastic layer and the wear-resistant layer.

[0003] However, the above mechanism has the following problems: while the sponge layer is used to prevent the ticket from directly contacting the buffer plate to achieve effective protection, dust is easily accumulated due to the large number of gaps in the sponge, and the sweat carried by the hands of the ticket collector is more likely to cause bacteria to grow in the sponge layer, which is not conducive to the hygienic use of the equipment. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the above problems, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a subway automatic ticket vending machine with a buffer mechanism at the ticket issuing point, so as to solve the problem that the existing subway automatic ticket vending machine uses a buffer plate and a sponge layer to buffer the tickets, which easily causes the growth of stains and bacteria in the sponge layer, which is not conducive to the hygienic use of the equipment.

[0005] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solution: a subway automatic ticket vending machine with a buffer mechanism at the ticket outlet, comprising a main body of the automatic ticket vending machine, a buffer rack connected vertically below the ticket outlet of the main body of the automatic ticket vending machine, the buffer rack being a box structure with an open top and a front, a pressure plate assembly installed on the inner bottom surface of the buffer rack, a buffer air cushion sandwiched between the pressure plate assembly and the bottom of the buffer rack, the inner cavity of the buffer air cushion connected to the probe of the pressure transmitter and the air outlet of the air pump, the pressure transmitter and the air pump are installed at the bottom of the buffer rack, a controller is also installed at the bottom of the buffer rack, and a human body sensing module and an ultraviolet lamp are installed on the inner side of the buffer rack.

[0006] The beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows: under the pressure feedback of the pressure transmitter and the automatic control of the air pump by the controller, the buffer air cushion always maintains a suitable internal pressure to effectively buffer the tickets dropped from the ticket outlet, and the surface of the buffer air cushion is smooth, easy to clean and not prone to dust accumulation; the ultraviolet light generated by the ultraviolet lamp can effectively disinfect the interior of the buffer rack and the top surface of the buffer air cushion to avoid the growth of bacteria.

[0007] In order to ensure the sealing of the inner cavity of the cushion;

[0008] As a further improvement of the above technical solution: the pressure plate assembly includes a pressure plate and a sealing pad, the bottom edge of the buffer air cushion is bent and clamped between the sealing pad and the buffer frame, the pressure plate is pressed on the upper side of the sealing pad, and the pressure plate is connected to the buffer frame by bolts.

[0009] The beneficial effect of this improvement is that the use of the pressure plate in conjunction with the bolts firmly presses the bottom edge of the buffer air cushion onto the buffer frame, and the use of the sealing gasket fully improves the sealing of the edge of the buffer air cushion, thereby maintaining good air tightness in the inner cavity of the buffer air cushion.

[0010] In order to make the cushioning air cushion effectively cushion the tickets falling from above;

[0011] As a further improvement of the above technical solution: the edge of the buffer air cushion is connected to the inner wall of the buffer frame.

[0012] The beneficial effect of this improvement is that the buffer air cushion can effectively receive the tickets that fall inside the buffer rack.

[0013] In order to effectively prevent personnel from being exposed to ultraviolet light when picking up tickets;

[0014] As a further improvement of the above technical solution: the human body sensing module and the ultraviolet lamp are electrically connected to a controller, the controller includes a relay and a single-chip microcomputer, and the human body sensing module is installed on the inner wall opposite to the front end opening of the buffer rack.

[0015] The beneficial effect of this improvement is that when the ticket collector puts his hand into the inner side of the buffer rack to take out the ticket that falls on the buffer air cushion, the human body sensing module detects the presence of the human body and controls the ultraviolet lamp to cut off the power to avoid radiation to the human body.

[0016] In order to effectively control and adjust the internal pressure of the cushion through the use of pressure transmitter and air pump;

[0017] As a further improvement of the above technical solution: the pressure transmitter and the air pump are both electrically connected to the controller.

[0018] The beneficial effect of this improvement is that when the pressure transmitter detects that the internal pressure of the buffer air cushion is lower than the set threshold value, the air pump works under the control of the controller to maintain the internal pressure of the controller within a suitable threshold range.

[0019] In order to keep the internal pressure of the cushion in a constant range for a long time;

[0020] As a further improvement of the above technical solution: a one-way valve is installed between the air outlet of the air pump and the buffer air cushion, and the medium flow direction of the one-way valve is from the air pump to the buffer air cushion.

[0021] The beneficial effect of this improvement is that the use of the one-way valve not only ensures that the air pump can normally supply air to the buffer air cushion, but also prevents the gas in the buffer air cushion from leaking out through the air pump.

[0022] The parts not involved in the device are the same as those in the prior art or can be implemented by using the prior art. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The use of the sealing gasket 42 fully improves the sealing performance of the edge of the buffer air cushion 3, so that the inner cavity of the buffer air cushion 3 maintains good airtightness. The edge of the buffer air cushion 3 is connected to the inner wall of the buffer frame 2. The buffer air cushion 3 can effectively receive the tickets dropped inside the buffer frame 2. The human body sensing module 8 and the ultraviolet lamp 9 are electrically connected to the controller 7. The controller 7 includes a relay and a single-chip microcomputer. The human body sensing module 8 is installed on the inner wall opposite to the front end opening of the buffer frame 2. The ticket collector inserts his hand into the inner side of the buffer frame 2 to take out the tickets dropped on the buffer air cushion. 3, the human body sensing module 8 detects the presence of the human body and controls the ultraviolet lamp 9 to cut off the power to avoid radiation to the human body. The pressure transmitter 5 and the air pump 6 are electrically connected to the controller 7. When the pressure transmitter 5 detects that the internal pressure of the buffer air cushion 3 is lower than the set threshold, the air pump 6 works under the control of the controller 7 to maintain the internal pressure of the controller 7 within a suitable threshold range.

The use of the one-way valve not only ensures that the air pump 6 can supply air to the buffer air cushion 3 normally, but also prevents the gas in the buffer air cushion 3 from leaking out through the air pump 6.

[0031] The working principle of the present technical solution is as follows: the ticket is discharged from the ticket outlet and falls into the buffer rack 2 under the action of weight, and is supported by the buffer air cushion 3. When the ticket collector puts his hand into the inner side of the buffer rack 2 to take out the ticket that falls on the buffer air cushion 3, the human body sensing module 8 detects the presence of the human body and controls the ultraviolet lamp 9 to cut off the power to avoid radiation to the human body. After the person takes out the ticket, the ultraviolet lamp 9 is powered on under the control of the controller 7 to prevent bacteria from growing inside the buffer rack 2 and on the surface of the buffer air cushion 3. The smooth surface of the buffer air cushion 3 can also reduce the accumulation of dust. When the pressure transmitter 5 detects that the internal pressure of the buffer air cushion 3 is lower than the set threshold value, the air pump 6 works under the control of the controller 7 to maintain the internal pressure of the controller 7 within a suitable threshold range.
