[0027] Working principle: A conveying mechanism of a snack vending machine includes a snack vending machine body 1, a vending machine cabinet door 2, a receiving box 3, a supporting and fixing plate 4, a conveying mechanism 5 and a cleaning mechanism 6. The supporting and fixing plate 4 plays a supporting and stabilizing role on the inner side of the snack vending machine body 1. Snacks can be output through the conveying mechanism 5. The vending machine cabinet door 2 is closed, so that the receiving box 3 is inserted into the inner side of the snack vending machine body 1. The snacks fall to the inner side of the receiving box 3 and can be taken from the front. Through the provided conveying mechanism 5, the goods can be placed on the inner side of the conveying control seat 501. The motor 504 drives the threaded rod 503 to rotate on the inner side of the inner movable groove 502. The connecting and fixing block 508 is sleeved on the outer wall of the threaded rod 503 through the threaded hole 509. When the threaded rod 503 rotates, it will drive the outer wall to move on its outer wall. Thereby, the pushing plate 507 is driven to move, so as to push the goods forward stably, and the probability of the goods being stuck on the inner side of the snack vending machine body 1 is reduced within a certain range. The limit block 510 is sleeved on the outer wall of the limit guide rod 506 through the through hole 511. When the pushing plate 507 moves, the limit block 510 is driven to move on the inner side of the limit groove 505. The limit guide rod 506 plays the role of limit guide. Through the cleaning mechanism 6, the powerful suction pump 604 can provide suction on the inner side of the cleaning control frame 601, and is connected to the cleaning suction head 603 through the dust suction pipe 605, so that the cleaning suction head 603 can absorb dust at the upper end of the cleaning control frame 601, and then transmit it to the inner side of the dust box 602 through the connecting pipe 606. Regular cleaning can maintain hygiene and prevent snacks from being stained, and at the same time enhance the customer's shopping experience.
