Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of automatic vending machines, and in particular to a safety protection structure for automatic vending machines. Background Art

[0002] Vending machines are common items sold unattended in public places. They are widely used because they do not require long-term staff supervision, which greatly saves labor costs. However, when the current vending machines are in use, the location where the goods are placed is connected to the pickup port, so it is easy for criminals to damage or steal the facilities and items in the machine through the pickup port, causing economic losses to the merchants.

[0003] In this regard, China's patent application number CN202321133926.9 discloses a safety protection structure for a vending machine. The solution mainly allows cans and other goods to be shipped to pass through frame one and frame two smoothly, so that extrusion plates one and two are opened, and cans and other goods to be shipped can fall smoothly into the pickup port. However, third-party venders cannot use tools to rotate extrusion plates two and one through the pickup port, and thus cannot reach the area where cans and other goods are stored through tools, thereby effectively preventing theft.

[0004] However, in the process of implementing the technical solution in the embodiments of the present application, the inventor of the present application found that the above technology has at least the following technical problems:

[0005] For vending machines that automatically prepare multiple beverages, open cups are usually used, and water and ingredients are added in sequence to achieve automatic preparation and sales of beverages. However, the above-mentioned technology of taking out by dropping is not applicable and cannot provide a safety protection effect. Utility Model Content

[0013] In the above implementation process, the worm wheel and the worm can increase the torque and also play a self-locking effect to prevent the cup cover from being rotated by external force.

[0014] In a specific embodiment, the sealing member includes a channel cover, the channel cover is fixedly connected to the automatic vending machine body, and the channel cover is connected between the pickup port and the opening.

[0015] In the above implementation process, the channel cover is connected between the pickup port and the opening, so that gaps can be avoided as much as possible, thereby achieving a better protective effect.

[0016] In a specific embodiment, the blocking member further includes a door plate, the door plate is slidably connected to the automatic vending machine body, and the door plate is movably blocked from the channel cover.

[0017] In the above implementation process, when the cup cover rotates, the door panel blocks the pickup port to prevent external force from damaging the rotating cup cover.

[0018] In a specific implementation manner, the sealing member further includes an electric cylinder, and two ends of the electric cylinder are respectively hinged to the door panel and the automatic vending machine body.

[0019] In the above implementation process, the servo-controlled electric cylinder is used in conjunction with the cup cover. When the cup cover is fully rotated into place, the electric cylinder drives the door panel to open.

[0020] In a specific embodiment, guide rods are provided on both sides of the conveyor belt, and the guide rods guide the cups into the cup covers.

[0021] In the above implementation process, the guide rod can reduce the tilt of the cup due to shaking, and can also help the cup to enter the cup cover smoothly.

[0022] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present application are: the conveyor belt moves the cup, passing through multiple ingredient ports to make a variety of beverages, and then the cup enters the cup cover through the opening, the rotation of the cup cover connects the opening with the pickup port, and then the sealing part is opened to take out the beverage immediately, and the sealing part and the cup cover are used to block the inside and outside of the automatic vending machine body, thereby preventing criminals from damaging the internal structure through the pickup port.
