Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of automatic vending, and in particular to a pickup control device for a vending machine. Background Art

[0002] A vending machine is a machine that automatically pays for goods according to the coins inserted. It is a new form of commercial retail, also known as a 24-hour mini supermarket. Common vending machines are divided into four types, including beverage vending machines, food vending machines, comprehensive vending machines and cosmetics vending machines. Vending machines are not restricted by time and place, save manpower, and facilitate transactions.

[0003] After the customer completes the payment, the goods will reach the pickup area along the falling path. The customer needs to reach out and push open the anti-theft baffle in the pickup area to get the purchased goods. Especially when purchasing goods such as beverages, since the anti-theft baffle has an automatic reset function, some customers with less strength or children alone need to spend a certain amount of effort to take out the goods they choose, thereby reducing the shopping experience. The anti-theft baffle is a necessary component of the vending machine.

[0004] Therefore, in order to solve the above technical problems, a control device for conveniently picking up goods from a vending machine is needed. Utility Model Content

[0005] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the purpose of this application is to provide a pickup control device for a vending machine, which is used to solve the problem that some customers have difficulty in picking up goods due to their lack of strength due to the presence of an anti-theft plate.

[0006] The above-mentioned purpose of the present application is achieved through the following technical solutions: a picking control device for a vending machine, comprising a picking device, an anti-theft baffle and a picking chamber, wherein the picking device is arranged in the picking chamber, and the picking device comprises a touch plate and a touch plate shaft, wherein the bottom of the touch plate is fixedly arranged on the circumference of the touch plate shaft, and the two sides of the touch plate shaft are rotatably connected in the picking chamber, the anti-theft baffle is arranged at the exit position of the picking chamber, and a circular shaft is fixedly arranged above the anti-theft baffle, and the two ends of the circular shaft are rotatably connected at the exit position of the picking chamber.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, when the goods fall from the vending machine, they will first fall onto the touch plate. Since there is a touch axis below the touch plate, the gravity of the goods will press the touch plate to one side, thereby generating an inclined surface so that the purchased goods move outward along the inclined surface, thereby hitting the anti-theft baffle, causing the anti-theft baffle to open outward, allowing the goods to leave the vending machine with the anti-theft baffle, so that the customer does not need to push or pull the anti-theft baffle by himself to let his goods come out of the vending machine.

[0008] Furthermore, a sponge is provided between the bottom of the touch plate and the cargo picking chamber, and the sponge is fixedly connected between the touch plate and the cargo picking chamber.

[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, as the product follows the sliding of the touch plate out of the pickup chamber, the touch plate can automatically reset, and the end of the touch plate will protect the bottom end of the anti-theft baffle, making it impossible to push the anti-theft baffle open from the outside. At the same time, it has a buffering effect for the next time the product falls off the touch plate, and plays a certain protective role for the pickup chamber.

[0010] Furthermore, a picking shelf is provided at one side of the exit position of the picking chamber, and the picking shelf is fixedly connected to the exit position of the picking chamber.

[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, through the setting of the picking shelf, when the goods come out with the anti-theft baffle, they will directly enter the picking shelf, so that customers can get the goods more conveniently.

[0012] Furthermore, the bottom of the shelf is inclined away from the side of the vending machine.

[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the inclined picking shelf can allow the goods to reach a position after falling into the picking shelf, allowing customers to pick up the goods better.

[0014] Furthermore, a buffer layer is provided on the touch panel.

[0015] By adopting the above technical solution and setting a buffer layer, since the goods fall from above, too many goods may cause damage to the touch panel. Therefore, the setting of the buffer layer can protect the touch panel and increase its service life.

[0016] Furthermore, the buffer layer is sleeved on the touch panel.

[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the buffer layer can be installed and replaced more conveniently.

[0018] Furthermore, the buffer layer is a layer made of polymer material.

[0019] By adopting the above technical solution, this material can effectively protect the product from impact and vibration and improve the stability and reliability of the touch panel.

[0020] Furthermore, the anti-theft baffle is made of carbon fiber material.

[0021] By adopting the above technical solution, the carbon fiber has high strength and low density, so it has the characteristics of lightweight. At the same time, the tensile strength and compressive strength of the carbon fiber are very high, and it has high rigidity and hardness.

[0022] In summary, the present application includes at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:

[0023] With the setting of the anti-theft baffle and the picking device, after the customer selects the goods, the goods fall from the vending machine to the touch plate of the picking device, and the touch plate tilts outward, so that the goods move outward as they tilt, and at the same time pushes the anti-theft baffle outward, so that the goods push the anti-theft baffle and leave the picking device through the exit and enter the picking shelf, so that the customer can directly get the goods he purchased without performing any operation after purchasing the goods.

[0024] 2. The sponge body arranged in the touch plate and the picking chamber, when the goods leave the picking device through the delivery port and there is no goods on the touch plate, the sponge body will reset the touch plate, and the end of the touch plate will press against the anti-theft baffle to prevent it from being pushed open.

[0025] 3. The tilted picking shelf. When the goods are taken out from the picking port of the picking device and enter the picking shelf, the tilted setting will move the goods tilted until they are fixed, allowing customers to pick up the goods better. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0029] The present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0030] Example, see Figure 1 , Figure 2A picking control device for a vending machine includes a picking device 1, an anti-theft baffle 2 and a picking chamber 201. The picking device 1 includes a touch plate 101 and a touch plate shaft 102. The touch plate 101 is fixedly arranged on the circumference of the touch plate shaft 102, and is rotatably connected to the picking chamber 201 from both ends of the touch plate shaft 102. When the goods fall into the picking chamber 201 as the customer places an order, they fall onto the touch plate 101, so that the touch plate 101 tilts to one side, and the goods move along the tilted side. Move toward the exit direction of the picking chamber 201, the anti-theft baffle 2 is set at the exit position of the picking chamber 201, and a round shaft is fixedly connected just above the anti-theft baffle 2, and both ends of the round shaft are rotatably connected to the exit position of the picking chamber 201. As the goods move outward, they hit the anti-theft baffle 2 to open it, and the goods leave the picking chamber 201. A picking shelf 301 is set on the outside of the picking chamber 201, and the goods fall into the hands of the customer. During the whole process, the customer does not need to exert any force to get the purchased goods.

[0031] In order to prevent the anti-theft baffle 2 from being easily opened from the outside after the goods leave the picking chamber 201, in the present embodiment, a sponge 3 is provided below the touch plate 101 and in the middle of the picking chamber 201, and the sponge 3 is fixedly connected between the touch plate 101 and the picking chamber 201. After the goods leave the picking chamber 201 following the sliding of the touch plate 101, the touch plate 101 can be automatically reset, and the end of the touch plate 101 will abut against the bottom end of the anti-theft baffle 2, making it impossible to push the anti-theft baffle 2 from the outside, thereby achieving the above purpose.

[0032] In this embodiment, the bottom of the picking shelf 301 is tilted outwards. When the goods come out of the picking chamber 201 and enter the picking shelf 301, the goods will move together along the tilted side, thereby making it more convenient for customers to get their purchased goods.

[0033] Specific implementation process;

[0034] When the customer completes the order, the product falls into the pickup chamber 201 and onto the touch plate 101. As the touch plate 101 tilts, the product will slide to one side and move toward the exit of the pickup chamber 201. The anti-theft baffle 2 is set at the exit position of the pickup chamber 201. As the product moves outward, it hits the anti-theft baffle 2 and opens it. The product leaves the pickup chamber 201. A pickup shelf 301 is set on the outside of the pickup chamber 201. The product falls into the hands of the customer. During the whole process, the customer does not need to exert any force to get the purchased product.

[0035] The sponge 3 is fixedly connected between the touch plate 101 and the pickup chamber 201. As the goods follow the slide of the touch plate 101 to leave the pickup chamber 201, the touch plate 101 can automatically reset, and the end of the touch plate 101 will press against the bottom end of the anti-theft baffle 2, making it impossible to push the anti-theft baffle 2 open from the outside.

[0036] When the goods enter the picking shelf 301, the inclined picking shelf 301 will be tilted together, making it more convenient for customers to take their purchased goods.

[0037] The embodiments of this specific implementation method are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and are not intended to limit the protection scope of the application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made based on the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
