A gear is installed at the end of the motor shaft and meshes with a rack. The rack is arranged parallel to the linear slide rail 712. When the driving motor is started, it drives the gear to move along the direction of the rack to the lower part of the cup separator 60. After the cup box clamp 72 receives the cup box, it is driven by the driving motor to move to the lower part of the material guiding box 53 again to receive the cooked food ingredients, and finally moves to one end close to the pick-up window 103.
[0037] Please refer to Figure 9 , to facilitate consumers to pick up the cooked food, a cup box lifting mechanism 80 is further provided inside the cabinet body 10 corresponding to the lower part of the pick-up window 103. The cup box lifting mechanism 80 includes a lifting frame 81, a cup box support plate 82 and a driving member 83. The lifting frame 81 is composed of two vertically arranged guide rails. The cup box support plate 82 is arranged on the lifting frame 81 and lifts along the guide rails. When the cup box support plate 82 descends a preset height, it is used to support the cup boxes transferred by the cup box conveying mechanism 70 above the cup box support plate 82. The driving member 83 is installed on the cup box support plate 82 and is used to drive the cup box support plate 82 to lift. Preferably, the cup box support plate 82 can use a gear installed at the end of the motor shaft to lift along the matching rack.
[0038] Please refer to again Figure 5 , an intelligent integrated frying and cooking vending machine further includes a sauce adding mechanism 104, which is arranged beside the cup separator 60. A pumping pump is arranged above the sauce adding mechanism 104. The pumping pump is connected to a sauce bottle through a hose. The discharging end of the hose extends above the pick-up window 103. When the cup box containing food is at the pick-up window 103, the sauce adding mechanism 104 pumps the sauce onto the food in the cup box. Preferably, a variety of sauces can be placed in the sauce adding mechanism 104.
[0039] Understandably, an intelligent integrated frying and boiling food vending machine further includes an oil fume purification system for treating harmful gases generated during frying and boiling processing to prevent these harmful gases from being directly discharged into the air.
[0040] Understandably, an intelligent integrated frying and boiling food vending machine further includes a control system to control the conveying mechanism and processing mechanism of the cabinet body 10 to achieve intelligent control of the food vending machine.
