Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of payment terminals, in particular to a payment terminal used for an automatic vending machine. Background Art

[0002] Vending machines are devices that sell products without human supervision. Early vending machines mainly used banknote and coin machines to trade with customers, and could help customers purchase products such as snacks, beverages, alcohol, cigarettes and lottery tickets. Nowadays, with the prevalence of electronic payments, in addition to traditional cash acceptance, many vending machines are also generally equipped to accept new payment methods such as stored-value cards, credit cards, and smartphone mobile applications. However, they are still operated by one person in turn, and need to queue up. Shopping takes up a lot of time, affecting sales efficiency. In addition, vending machines are mostly placed in open areas, and dust easily accumulates on their display interfaces, affecting clarity and reducing the shopping experience. Utility Model Content

[0006] According to the payment terminal for a vending machine, a non-slip pad is fixedly attached to the bottom of the base to maintain the stability of the entire device after being placed.

[0007] According to the payment terminal for vending machines, a transparent window is fixedly embedded at the center of the front side of the slide, so that the code can be scanned directly through the slide in the early stage, and the slide can be opened for scanning when the transparency of the transparent window decreases due to external influences in the later stage.

[0008] According to the payment terminal for automatic vending machines, an identification strip is provided directly above the two-dimensional code display screen, and the rear side of the identification strip is fixedly connected to the control terminal to guide the user to scan the code for use.

[0009] According to the payment terminal for automatic vending machines, a dust cover is fixedly connected to the top of the vending machine housing to prevent dust from falling from the top from entering the vending machine housing and causing product contamination.

[0010] According to the payment terminal for a vending machine, a layer of isolation film is attached and fixed on the front side of the control terminal to reduce the dust adhesion strength and maintain the clarity of the screen.

[0011] The above scheme has the following beneficial effects:

[0012] In the utility model, a light box is provided to cooperate with a QR code display screen to clearly display application links in real time, so that users can quickly scan codes to shop, and a slide plate is used to cover it against dust, so that the display screen of the vending machine can always maintain a clear display during long-term external use, avoiding dust accumulation and adhesion that affects the display of the QR code, thereby improving shopping efficiency.

[0013] Additional aspects and advantages of the present invention will be given in part in the following description, and in part will become apparent from the following description, or will be learned through the practice of the present invention. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS
