[0002] A vending machine is a machine that can automatically deliver goods according to the inserted coins. A vending machine is a commonly used device for commercial automation. It is not restricted by time and location, can save labor and facilitate transactions. It is a new form of commercial retail, also known as a 24-hour mini supermarket. Common vending machines are generally divided into four types: beverage vending machines, food vending machines, comprehensive vending machines, and cosmetic vending machines.
[0003] Currently, the existing vending machines have certain defects. Most of their item pickup openings are of the hand-pushed and overturned plate design. This design method is convenient for customers to pick up items, but this design type will cause gaps at the item pickup opening. As a result, when the vending machine is not in use, some small harmful animals may enter the interior of the vending machine, causing damage to the products. To solve the above problems, an electric door structure for an item pickup opening is proposed to solve the above problems. Content of the Utility Model
