[0023] The utility model is further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings:
[0024] like Figure 1 - Figure 4 As shown, a flip anti-theft structure of a vending machine includes an outer box 100, a pickup port 200 is opened on the front lower side of the outer box 100, the top of the outer box 100 is connected to the bottom of the vending machine, an anti-theft mechanism is arranged inside the outer box 100, and the anti-theft mechanism includes a pickup baffle 301, the pickup baffle 301 is close to the lower side of the front plate of the outer box 100, a pickup plate shaft 302 is fixedly connected to the top of the pickup baffle 301, both ends of the pickup plate shaft 302 are rotatably connected to the outer box 100, a cover plate shaft 304 is arranged on the rear side of the pickup plate shaft 302, both ends of the cover plate shaft 304 are rotatably connected to the outer box 100, an anti-theft cover plate 303 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the cover plate shaft 304, a connecting rod assembly for linking the pickup baffle 301 and the anti-theft cover plate 303 is arranged on one side of the anti-theft cover plate 303, and a pushing mechanism is arranged on the lower side of the cover plate shaft 304.
[0025] The pick-up plate shaft 302 is arranged at the top of the pick-up baffle 301, so that the pick-up baffle 301 remains flipped backwards, and the cover plate shaft 304 is arranged at the bottom of the anti-theft cover plate 303. At the same time, due to the action of the connecting rod assembly, when the pick-up baffle 301 is manually pushed, the pick-up baffle 301 flips backwards, driving the anti-theft cover plate 303 to flip forwards, and the anti-theft cover plate 303 and the pick-up baffle 301 simultaneously form a similar plane, thereby preventing the top and bottom of the outer box 100 from being connected.
[0026] The connecting rod assembly includes a connecting rod 2 307, which is arranged on the rear side of the anti-theft cover plate 303. The bottom end of the connecting rod 2 307 is fixedly connected to the anti-theft cover plate 303. The top end of the anti-theft cover plate 303 is hinged with a connecting rod 1 306. An L-shaped plate 305 is provided on the rear side of the picking up cargo baffle 301. The front end of the L-shaped plate 305 is fixedly connected to the picking up cargo baffle 301. The top end of the L-shaped plate 305 is hinged to the connecting rod 1 306.
[0027] When the picking baffle 301 flips over, the L-shaped plate 305 is driven to pull the connecting rod 1 306 forward, the connecting rod 1 306 pulls the connecting rod 2 307, and the connecting rod 2 307 pushes the anti-theft cover plate 303 to flip forward.
[0028] The pushing mechanism includes a gear 1 401 , which is fixedly connected to one end of the cover plate shaft 304 , a gear 2 402 is meshed at the bottom of the gear 1 401 , the gear 2 402 is rotatably connected to the outer box 100 , and a rack 403 is meshed at the gear 2 402 .
[0029] When the anti-theft cover plate 303 is turned over, the cover plate shaft 304 is driven to rotate, which in turn drives the gear 1 401 to rotate. The gear 1 401 engages and drives the gear 2 402 to rotate, so that the rack 403 moves forward, and finally the push plate 404 pushes the goods.
[0030] The pushing mechanism also includes a pushing plate 404, one end of which is fixedly connected to the rack 403, and the other end of which is fixedly connected to a slide bar 405. Two sliding vertical plates 406 are provided on the lower side of the cover shaft 304, and the bottom ends of the sliding vertical plates 406 are fixedly connected to the outer box 100. The sliding vertical plate 406 on one side is slidably connected to the rack 403, and the sliding vertical plate 406 on the other side is slidably connected to the slide bar 405.
[0031] The push plate 404 is used to push the goods so that the goods are close to the consumers for easy picking up. The sliding vertical plate 406 is used to slidably connect the rack 403 and the slide bar 405. The slide bar 405 is used to maintain the stability of the push plate 404 sliding forward.
[0032] The pushing mechanism further includes an inclined plate 407 , which is fixedly connected to the top of the pushing plate 404 , and the bending direction of the inclined plate 407 is close to the anti-theft cover plate 303 .
[0033] Inclined plate 407 prevents the merchandise from falling into the rear side of push plate 404 .
[0034] The top of the anti-theft cover 303 is provided with an inclined plate 500 for facilitating the sliding of the goods to the front side of the anti-theft cover 303 , and both ends of the inclined plate 500 are fixedly connected to the outer box 100 .
[0035] The second inclined plate 500 is used to prevent commodities from falling into the rear side of the anti-theft cover plate 303 .
[0036] Working principle:
[0037] After the goods purchased by the consumer fall into the bottom of the outer box 100, the consumer pushes the pickup baffle 301 through the pickup port 200, and the pickup baffle 301 drives the L-shaped plate 305. The top of the swinging L-shaped plate 305 moves forward relative to the rotation, driving the connecting rod 1 306 to move forward, and then pulling the connecting rod 2 307 forward. The connecting rod 2 307 is fixedly connected to the anti-theft cover plate 303, and then the anti-theft cover plate 303 flips forward. The anti-theft cover plate 303 and the pickup baffle 301 simultaneously form an approximate plane to avoid the connection between the top and the bottom of the outer box 100 and prevent the goods from being stolen.
[0038] When the anti-theft cover 303 flips forward, it drives the cover shaft 304 and gear 1 401 to rotate, and gear 1 401 engages gear 2 402 to rotate, thereby driving the rack 403 to move forward, pushing the push plate 404 to push the goods forward, so that the goods are close to the pickup port 200, making it easier for consumers to get the goods.
