They do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, be constructed and operated in a specific direction. Therefore, they cannot be understood as limitations on the present invention.
[0018] In addition, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be understood as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of the indicated technical features. Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. In the description of the present utility model, the meaning of "plurality" is at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise clearly and specifically defined.
[0019] In the present invention, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installed", "connected", "connected", "fixed" and the like should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements, unless otherwise clearly defined. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0020] In the present utility model, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, a first feature being "above" or "below" a second feature may mean that the first and second features are in direct contact, or the first and second features are in indirect contact through an intermediate medium. Moreover, a first feature being "above", "above" or "above" a second feature may mean that the first feature is directly above or obliquely above the second feature, or simply means that the first feature is higher in level than the second feature. A first feature being "below", "below" or "below" a second feature may mean that the first feature is directly below or obliquely below the second feature, or simply means that the first feature is lower in level than the second feature.
[0021] It should be noted that when an element is referred to as being "fixed to" or "disposed on" another element, it may be directly on the other element or there may be a central element. When an element is considered to be "connected to" another element, it may be directly connected to the other element or there may be a central element at the same time. The terms "vertical", "horizontal", "upper", "lower", "left", "right" and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to be the only implementation method.
[0022] See Figures 1 to 5 The utility model provides a vending machine replenishment device, including a vending machine body 1, a lock body 2 and an anti-theft component 3. A cargo bin 11 is provided inside the vending machine body 1, and a replenishment door 12 for closing the cargo bin 11 is installed on the vending machine body 1; the lock body 2 is unidirectionally rotatably connected to the vending machine body 1, and is used to lock the replenishment door 12; the anti-theft component 3 is movably connected in the vending machine body 1, and when goods 4 are placed in the cargo bin 11, the anti-theft component 3 is in a position to restrict the rotation of the lock body 2, and the anti-theft component 3 contacts the goods 4 so that the goods 4 restrict the movement of the anti-theft component 3; the anti-theft component 3 can move to leave the position to restrict the rotation of the lock body 2.
[0023] When the goods 4 in the warehouse 11 that are in contact with the anti-theft piece 3 are sold, the anti-theft piece 3 is no longer restricted and can move away from the position that restricts the rotation of the lock body 2. The relevant staff can operate the lock body 2 to rotate to unlock and open the replenishment door 12 to replenish the goods in the warehouse 11. During the replenishment process, the goods will push the anti-theft piece 3 back to its original position, and then the replenishment door 12 is covered on the vending machine body 1 again. Finally, the lock body 2 is rotated to the initial locking position to lock the replenishment door 12 again to complete the replenishment. At this time, the lock body is in contact with the anti-theft piece again. When the internal goods are sold again, the next replenishment operation can be carried out. With the above structure, when the goods in the warehouse are sold out, the replenishment door can be unlocked by turning the lock body with the key 6. If the replenishment operator forgets to take the key after replenishing the goods, other people cannot open the door with the key, which can play an anti-theft role.
[0024] As a further solution of the present invention: the anti-theft member 3 is rotatably connected to the vending machine body 1. In addition to the rotational arrangement, the anti-theft member 3 can also be arranged to be slidably connected to the vending machine body 1.
[0025] As a further solution of the utility model: the vending machine replenishment device also includes an elastic member 5, and the elastic member 5 has a pre-tightening force that allows the anti-theft member 3 to move away from the position that limits the rotation of the lock body 2. The elastic member is set here, and when the goods are placed in the warehouse, it is in a pre-tightened state with elastic pre-tightening force. After the goods are sold, the elastic pre-tightening force will push the anti-theft member to move away from the position that limits the rotation of the lock body. Of course, in addition to the elastic member, a gravity block can also be set here, and the gravity of the gravity block can be used to drive the anti-theft member to move. When the anti-theft member is rotatably connected to the vending machine body, the elastic member is preferably a torsion spring.
[0026] As a further solution of the utility model: the replenishment door 12 is provided with a locking member 121, and the locking member 121 is provided with a lock body outlet 1211 and a lock body inlet 1212. The unidirectional rotation of the lock body 2 can realize that the lock body leaves the locking member 121 from the lock body outlet 1211 and enters the locking member 121 from the lock body outlet 1212.
[0027] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0028] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the utility model, and the description is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, which all belong to the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent shall be based on the attached claims.
