[0061] The spring telescopic rods in this embodiment are all existing technologies, and their specific structures will not be repeated in this embodiment.

[0062] Working principle: In this embodiment, when different types of cigarettes are placed in different cigarette storage chambers 3, the first photoelectric switch receiver 17, the first photoelectric switch transmitter 16, the second photoelectric switch receiver and the second photoelectric switch transmitter should be respectively classified and marked in the touch screen integrated machine. This classification marking technology and controlling the operation of the equipment through the classification marking technology are existing technologies, and their details will not be repeated in this embodiment.

[0063] When a user buys cigarettes, the face recognition system pre-installed in the touch screen all-in-one machine retrieves the person's identity information from the identity information database through the face information captured by the camera to determine whether the person meets the age requirement for purchasing cigarettes.

[0064] If the requirements for purchasing cigarettes are met, the user selects the type of cigarettes he wants to buy through the touch screen integrated machine, and after paying through the payment module, the control module controls the corresponding conveyor belt 9 to start moving, driving the empty cigarette delivery box 12 to move, and the first photoelectric switch transmitter 16 on the cigarette delivery box 12 and the first photoelectric switch receiver 17 at the bottom of the cigarette storage bin 3 storing the corresponding type of cigarettes are both turned on, and the first photoelectric switch receivers 17 at the bottom of other cigarette storage bins 3 are turned off. When the first photoelectric switch transmitter 16 on the cigarette delivery box 12 corresponds to the first photoelectric switch receiver 17 at the bottom of the corresponding cigarette storage bin 3, the control module controls the first motor to drive the cigarette moving block 7 to rotate, so that the first cigarette slot 8 on the cigarette moving block 7 rotates to the top, and the cigarettes 5 in the cigarette storage bin 3 fall into the first cigarette slot 8. The cigarette moving block 7 drives the first cigarette slot 8 to continue to rotate in the direction of the arc plate 6, and other parts of the cigarette moving block 7 push the excess cigarettes 5 upward and back into the cigarette storage bin 3.

[0065] After the cigarette 5 is driven by the cigarette pushing block 7 to pass through the curved plate 6 and with the opening facing downward, the cigarette 5 automatically falls into the cigarette placing groove of the cigarette transport box 12. The control module controls the conveyor belt 9 to drive the cigarette 5 to continue to move to the left. The cigarette 5 that has not completely entered the cigarette placing groove of the cigarette transport box 12 is corrected in position when passing between the two second limit plates 27 of the cigarette pushing component, and then is pushed into the cigarette placing groove by the pushing plate 28.

[0066] When the cigarette transport box 12 and the cigarettes 5 move to the first inclined section 901, the first spring telescopic rod 18 pushes the first pressure roller 19, so that the first pressure roller 19 rolls and presses the surface of the cigarettes 5 in the cigarette transport box 12 arranged at the first inclined section 901, so that the cigarette transport box 12 and the cigarettes 5 therein can smoothly enter the vertical channel between the first limiting plate 20 and the right vertical section of the conveyor belt 9. The first limiting plate 20 is used to prevent the cigarettes 5 from escaping from the cigarette transport box 12 when moving to the right vertical section of the conveyor belt 9.

[0067] When the cigarette box 12 and the cigarettes 5 therein move to the second inclined section 902, the second spring telescopic rod 21 pushes the second pressing roller 22 to roll and press the surface of the cigarettes 5 in the cigarette box 12 at the second inclined section 902, so that the cigarettes 5 in the cigarette box 12 can move smoothly to the second inclined section 902. Figure 1 and Figure 3 Below the cigarette outlet 102 shown.

[0068] When the cigarette box 12 moves to the bottom of the cigarette outlet 102, the second photoelectric switch transmitter corresponds to the second photoelectric switch receiver, and the control module controls the conveyor belt 9 to stop moving and the sliding door mechanism to open. After the user takes out the cigarette, the control module controls the sliding door mechanism to close, completing the process of purchasing cigarettes.

[0069] It is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-restrictive from any point of view, and the scope of the present invention is limited by the appended claims rather than the above description, and it is intended that all changes falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims are included in the present invention. Any reference numeral in a claim should not be regarded as limiting the claim to which it relates.
