When the consumer selects the cigarette products he wants to buy, the conveyor belt assembly 3 is started to drive the cigarette products to be transported from the back to the front, until the cigarette products on the front side fall off the conveyor belt assembly 3, and then the conveyor belt assembly 3 is closed, so that there are always cigarette products on the front side of the conveyor belt assembly 3, and automatic replenishment is realized. The fallen cigarette products are intercepted by the lifting plate 5. At this time, the lifting drive mechanism is started to drive the lifting plate 5 to rise, and drive the cigarette products intercepted thereon to rise to the taking port 6 at the top of the cabinet 1. Then the consumer takes the cigarette products in the taking port 6 to complete the purchase, and the automatic cigarette taking function is realized. After the consumer takes the cigarette products, the lifting drive mechanism is started again to drive the lifting plate 5 to descend and reset, so as to wait for the next automatic cigarette taking.
[0028] During the actual use of the automatic replenishment cigarette sales cabinet, the storage shelves 7 in the cabinet 1 are used to store the cigarette products to be sold. When all the cigarette products on the conveyor belt assembly 3 are sold out, the cigarette products stored on the storage shelves 7 are placed on the conveyor belt assembly 3 to continue selling. When the humidity value in the cabinet 1 is too high, the heating wire 9 is started for heating, and the ventilation fan 8 is turned on to blow air into the cabinet 1. The airflow heated by the heating wire 9 passes through the storage shelves 7 and is injected into the cabinet 1, and is finally discharged from the ventilation window 10, so as to realize ventilation and drying in the cabinet 1, so as to reduce the humidity value in the cabinet 1 and provide a relatively dry storage environment for the cigarette products.
