Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of refrigeration equipment, and particularly relates to a power-free goods lane and a beverage cabinet. Background Art

[0002] Beverage cabinets or beverage display cabinets are mainly used in shopping malls, convenience stores, etc. to refrigerate and display beverages such as fruit juices, sodas, wines, and functional beverages. Beverage cabinets are composed of a refrigeration system, a lighting system, a cabinet body, a door body, etc. The refrigeration system includes components such as a compressor, a condenser, an evaporator, an expansion valve or a capillary copper tube. Beverage display cabinets are divided into air curtain cabinets and glass display cabinets. Among them, glass display cabinets are more widely used because they have doors that can enclose cold air. Common glass display cabinets are generally rectangular, with a transparent door on the front side. Multiple layers of commodity shelves are provided inside the glass display cabinet, and each layer of the shelf is divided into multiple goods lanes by a plurality of partition plates. Users can open the door and take out the goods by themselves. When the goods in front of the shelf are taken out, the goods behind move forward by gravity. Sometimes, the goods move forward very fast and are prone to tilting or falling.

[0003] With the development of technologies such as online payment and face recognition payment in recent years, more and more vending machines have also started to adopt the structure of glass display cabinets. Since the delivery mechanism and anti-theft structure of traditional vending machines are cancelled, the manufacturing cost of the equipment is greatly reduced, so it has been more and more widely used. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The present application provides a power-free goods lane and a beverage cabinet, which can enable the goods to move stably and avoid accidental falling.

[0005] To achieve the above object, the present application adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] In a first aspect, the present application provides a power-free goods lane, including:

[0007] A bracket assembly for installing the goods lane on a cabinet body. The bracket assembly has a pair of opposite left side walls and right side walls, and the left side wall and the right side wall jointly define a goods passage;

[0008] A push plate mechanism is installed on the bracket assembly, and the push plate mechanism continuously provides a thrust in the direction of the goods passage outlet to the goods stored in the goods passage;

[0009] A delivery mechanism is provided at the outlet at the front of the goods passage;

[0010] The described shipping mechanism includes a pair of limit plates and a pair of blocking members. The pair of limit plates are respectively rotatably connected to the front ends of the left side wall and the right side wall. The limit plates are configured to block in front of the exit of the commodity channel in the natural state and can be opened under the action of an external force to expose the exit. The pair of blocking members are located behind the pair of limit plates and are respectively installed on the left side wall and the right side wall. The blocking member includes an element that can elastically deform, and at least part of the blocking member extends into the commodity channel to block the goods behind from moving forward along the commodity channel.

[0011] In this application, a force pointing to the exit of the commodity channel is applied to the goods in the commodity channel through the push plate mechanism. At the same time, limit plates and blocking members are arranged at the exit of the commodity channel. On the one hand, the goods are stably maintained in the commodity channel. On the other hand, when the user takes the goods in the front, it can block the goods behind from quickly rushing out of the commodity channel and play a buffering role.

[0012] In a possible implementation manner, the left side wall and the right side wall respectively have a mounting shaft, and the limit plate is rotatably sleeved on the mounting shaft. An elastic rotational connection is realized between each limit plate and the corresponding side wall through a return spring.

[0013] In a possible implementation manner, the blocking member is a spring plunger.

[0014] In a possible implementation manner, the blocking member includes an elastic sheet, and the elastic sheet has a convex portion that can extend into the commodity channel.

[0015] In a possible implementation manner, the push plate mechanism includes a push plate installed at the rear end of the goods channel. A coil spring is installed in the push plate. One end of the coil spring is installed on the bracket assembly, and the other end is fixed on the push plate.

[0016] In a possible implementation manner, the pallet assembly includes a lower pallet and a lining of the goods channel. The lower pallet has a horizontally extending horizontal portion and a pair of hook portions located at the rear end of the horizontal portion.

[0017] In a possible implementation manner, the blocking member is a convex block that can elastically deform, and the convex block is made of a material with a friction coefficient greater than that of the lining of the goods channel.

[0018] In a possible implementation manner, the convex block is made of rubber material.

[0019] In a possible implementation manner, the lower pallet is integrally bent.

[0020] In a second aspect, the present application provides a beverage cabinet, comprising: a cabinet body with an opening at the front, and a door body rotatably installed at the opening of the cabinet body, wherein a plurality of the unpowered channels are installed in the cabinet body.

[0021] In the normal state of the present application, the goods can be stably confined within the channels, and when picking up goods, the movement of the rear goods can be buffered, enabling the rear goods to stably and without shaking move forward to replenish. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0049] To describe in detail the technical content, structural features, achieved objectives and effects of the utility model, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. In the following description, for the purpose of explanation, many specific details are set forth to provide a detailed description of various exemplary embodiments or implementations of the utility model. However, the various exemplary embodiments may also be implemented without these specific details or in the case of one or more equivalent arrangements. In addition, the various exemplary embodiments may be different, but not necessarily exclusive. For example, without departing from the inventive concept, the specific shapes, structures and characteristics of the exemplary embodiments may be used or implemented in another exemplary embodiment.

[0050] Hereinafter, terms such as "first", "second", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the quantity of the indicated technical features. Thus, features defined with "first", "second", etc. may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of such features. In the description of the present application, unless otherwise specified, the meaning of "a plurality" is two or more.

[0051] In addition, in the present application, spatial relative terms such as "under", "below", "beneath", "lower", "above", "upper", "on", "higher", "side" (for example, as in "side wall") are used to describe the relationship between one element and another (other) element as shown in the accompanying drawings. The spatial relative terms are intended to include different orientations of the device in use, operation and / or manufacture in addition to the orientation depicted in the drawings. For example, if the device in the drawing is flipped, the element described as "under" or "beneath" another element or feature will subsequently be positioned "above" the said other element or feature. Therefore, the exemplary term "under" can include both the upper and lower orientations. In addition, the device may be positioned otherwise (for example, rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and accordingly, the spatial relative descriptive terms used herein are interpreted.

[0052] In the present application, unless otherwise clearly defined and limited, the term "connection" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "connection" may be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or integrated; it may be directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium.

[0053] An embodiment of the present application provides a beverage cabinet, which can also be referred to as a display cabinet, wine cabinet, refrigerator, or low-temperature cabinet. The beverage cabinet can be used for storing, displaying, or selling bottled, canned, or boxed beverages. Usually, a refrigeration system or a heating system is also provided inside the beverage cabinet to provide hot and cold beverages. The beverage cabinet can be set into a desktop beverage cabinet suitable for placing on a table according to actual needs, or can be set into a floor-standing beverage cabinet for placing on the ground. The specific form of the above beverage cabinet is not particularly limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0054] Please refer to Figure 1 , which shows the front view of the beverage cabinet provided by the embodiment of the present application. As can be seen from the figure, the beverage cabinet includes a cabinet body 100 and a base 300 arranged up and down. The front side of the beverage cabinet has a transparent observation window, through which the goods displayed inside can be observed through the door body.

[0055] Observed from the front, the beverage cabinet is an axisymmetric structure. The cabinet body 100 has a square outer contour, and the base 300 is generally trapezoidal. Thus, a shape different from traditional refrigerators, freezers, and traditional beverage cabinets can be formed, bringing different visual experiences to users. As an alternative, in other embodiments of the present application, when observed from the front, the cabinet body can also adopt shapes such as circular, heart-shaped, triangular, pentagonal, pentagram-shaped, hexagonal, or octagonal, or the cabinet body has a quadrilateral geometric structure, such as a rhombus or a rectangle.

[0056] A plurality of channels 500 are provided inside the cabinet body 100. Different from traditional beverage cabinets, no shelves are provided inside the cabinet. The plurality of channels 500 can be staggered from each other and are not connected to each other.

[0057] In one embodiment, the horizontal heights of two adjacent channels inside the cabinet body 100 are different. Each channel 500 is separately fixed on the rear backboard 120 of the cabinet body 100. In this way, on the one hand, the heights of the items placed in each channel can be different, and on the other hand, the plurality of channels can also be flexibly installed and adjusted according to the shape of the cabinet body, maximizing the use of the space inside the cabinet.

[0058] Refer to Figures 2-3 , the front part of the cabinet body 100 has an opening. The beverage cabinet further includes a door body 200 capable of closing the opening. The interior of the cabinet body 100 forms a storage bin for accommodating and storing goods. After the front door body 200 is opened, the storage bin is completely open, and consumers can take the goods in the storage bin by themselves.

[0059] In this embodiment, as Figure 3As shown, the left side of the door body 200 is rotatably connected to the cabinet body 100 through a hinge 131. To facilitate opening the door, a door handle 240 is also provided at the lower border of the door body 200. This embodiment provides a typical example of a right-opening door. As an alternative, in other embodiments, the beverage cabinet can also adopt forms such as left-opening, top-opening, or bottom-opening. Refer to Figure 3 As shown, the door body 200 can be used to change the beverage cabinet to a left-opening door according to user needs.

[0060] The door body 200 is composed of a frame body 210 and a hollow glass 220. The frame body 210 is filled with heat-insulating foam material, and a sealing strip 230 is installed on the rear side of the door body 200 close to the cabinet body 100. The hollow glass can provide a transparent observation window, enabling consumers to clearly observe the goods stored in the storage bin.

[0061] In free-use scenarios, such as ordinary household use or internal use in commercial premises, there is no need to set up a payment system and door locks between the door body and the cabinet body. For commercial payment scenarios, a locking mechanism also needs to be set between the door body and the cabinet body. For example, the door body can be provided with a magnetic absorber, and correspondingly, an electromagnetic lock is provided at the front of the cabinet body 100. In the normal state, the magnetic absorber and the electromagnetic lock are attracted and fixed. After the consumer pays, the electromagnetic lock is powered off, releasing the magnetic absorber, and the door body can be opened. In some embodiments, an ordinary mechanical lock can also be used to replace the magnetic absorber and electromagnetic lock between the door body and the cabinet body.

[0062] Please refer to Figure 4 、 5 , the cabinet body 100 includes a plurality of enclosing side walls, and transparent observation windows are respectively provided on the left and right side walls of the cabinet body 100. The opening of this observation window makes the internal display effect of the beverage cabinet better, and together with the lighting system, it can present a bright and transparent internal space.

[0063] To maintain the heat insulation performance of the cabinet body and improve the convenience and integrity of the installation of the beverage cabinet, in this embodiment, the cabinet body 100 and the base 300 adopt a split structure, that is, the two are separately processed and manufactured, and finally fixed and assembled through fasteners. The cabinet body 100 adopts a foam structure, with a storage bin formed inside, having good heat insulation and heat preservation functions, while the base 300 is made of metal components or sheet metal parts, and an installation bin for installing a refrigeration system or a heating system is formed inside. The cabinet body 100 includes an inner sheet metal part and an outer sheet metal part, and foam material is filled between the inner sheet metal part and the outer sheet metal part. Please refer to Figure 3 、 6 As shown in FIGS. 7, the base 300 is located directly below the cabinet body 100, and the central axis of the cabinet body vertically passes through the base. The base 300 is bent from stainless steel plates, painted steel plates, etc., and components of the refrigeration system such as a compressor and a condenser can be installed inside the base.

[0064] To achieve the best lighting effect, in one embodiment of the present application, the lighting system includes a plurality of light strips. Four light strips are provided at the opening of the cabinet body and are respectively embedded and installed on each side wall. A lamp holder can also be installed between two adjacent side walls. The lamp holder is provided with a slot, and the light strip is fixed on the lamp holder through the slot. Since the lamp holder extends along the front-rear direction, the entire cabinet body can be illuminated.

[0065] Figure 7 In the illustrated embodiment, the base 300 includes a left side plate 301, a right side plate 302, a bottom plate 303, and a decorative plate 310. The left side plate 301, the right side plate 302, and the bottom plate 303 are formed by bending a stainless steel plate into a trapezoidal platform with an upper opening. The lower part of the cabinet body 100 is placed at the upper opening of the trapezoidal platform. When assembling the cabinet body and the base, first, the left side plate 301 and the right side plate 302 of the base 300 are respectively fixed on the cabinet body 100 through fasteners, and then the decorative plate 310 is installed on the outside. The decorative plate 310 can be bent from materials such as color steel plates and coated galvanized steel plates. It should be noted that to make the product center stable and the support stable, the overall shape of the base is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom. In other alternative embodiments, the shape of the base can also be frustum-shaped, I-shaped, etc., which does not limit the protection scope of the application here.

[0066] To stably fix the cabinet body and the base, the left side plate 301 and the right side plate 302 of the base 300 respectively have flanges 304. When the cabinet body 100 is placed on the base 300, the lower side walls of the cabinet body 100 are respectively opposite to the flanges on the left side plate 301 and the right side plate 302 and are fixed through threaded fasteners. The decorative plate 310 is finally buckled on the outside of the left side plate and the right side plate.

[0067] Please continue to refer to Figure 7 , the beverage cabinet further includes a rear sealing plate 140 located behind the cabinet body 100 and the base 300. The rear sealing plate 140 can cover the rear surfaces of both the cabinet body 100 and the base 300 at the same time. On the one hand, this can make the rear part of the beverage cabinet form an integral whole, and on the other hand, it is convenient for maintenance. As long as the rear sealing plate 140 is disassembled, the refrigeration system inside the base 300 can be repaired. In addition, to achieve a harmonious and beautiful design effect, the projections of the outer contours of the cabinet body 100 and the base 300 in the front-rear direction are the same as the outer contour of the rear sealing plate 140.

[0068] In this application, through the up-and-down split structure design, the cabinet body and the base have independent structures, can be manufactured separately and finally assembled. The cabinet body is made by the foaming process, and a storage bin with good heat preservation effect is formed inside. The base is made by bending sheet metal parts, has good supporting performance, and is hollow inside, capable of forming a space for placing components such as compressors and condensers. On the other hand, due to the split design of the cabinet body and the base, the cabinet body and the base have a larger design space, can adopt richer geometric shapes, and bring a unique display effect to the beverage cabinet as a whole.

[0069] See Figures 8-13 , in the embodiment of this application, each goods channel 500 is separately fixed on the rear backboard 120 of the cabinet body. There is a goods channel exit in front of the goods channel 500, and a push plate mechanism 520 is arranged behind the goods channel. Each goods channel adopts a non-powered goods channel, and no power components such as motors need to be arranged on the goods channel. Instead, an elastic energy storage element applies a thrust pointing to the goods channel exit to the goods in the goods channel.

[0070] Specifically, the goods channel 500 includes:

[0071] A bracket assembly 510, see Figures 14-16 , which is used to fixedly support the goods channel on the rear backboard 120 and at the same time provide a storage space for displaying goods. The bracket assembly 510 has a pair of opposite left side walls 514, right side walls 515 and a bottom wall 516 connecting the left side wall and the right side wall. The left side wall 514, right side wall 515 and bottom wall 516 jointly define a long strip-shaped goods channel, and multiple bottled or canned goods are arranged in sequence in the goods channel.

[0072] A push plate mechanism 520, which is movably installed on the bracket assembly 510. The push plate mechanism 520 includes a push plate 521 and a coil spring 522, and this push plate mechanism continuously provides a thrust F1 pointing to the goods channel exit direction to the goods stored in the goods channel. Please refer to Figure 19 , one end of the coil spring 522 is fixed on the push plate 521, and the other end is fixed at the front end of the bracket assembly 510. When the goods channel is full of goods, the push plate 521 is located at the rearmost side, the coil spring 522 is deformed by force, and continuously applies a forward restoring force to the push plate 521. In this embodiment, the coil spring is specifically a variable force coil spring. In other embodiments of this application, the coil spring can also be replaced by other springs such as tension springs and compression springs.

[0073] A shipping mechanism 530, which is arranged at the exit at the front part of the goods channel. Please continue to refer to Figure 16 , the shipping mechanism 530 includes a pair of limit plates 531 and a pair of spring plungers 534. Of course, the limit plates provided in the embodiment of this application are not limited to the structures shown in the figure, and can also be in various shapes such as flat plates, long strips, and arc plates.

[0074] A pair of limiting plates 531 are respectively rotatably arranged on the left side wall 514 and the right side wall 515 of the goods channel 500, and in the normal state, the pair of limiting plates 531 block in front of the exit of the goods channel, as Figure 8 、 10 、shown in Fig. 11; A pair of spring plungers 534 are respectively fixed on the left side wall 514 and the right side wall 515 of the goods channel 500, and are located within a distance less than the length of one commodity behind the pair of limiting plates 531. In the normal state, the spring plungers 534 are in an uncompressed state, and their steel balls 5340 can partially extend into the goods channel and get stuck on the side of the commodity. When the user needs to take out the commodity on the goods channel, hold the first commodity 601 at the exit of the goods channel and apply a general force forward, then the first commodity 601 can move forward, while compressing the spring plungers 534 and pushing open the pair of limiting plates 531. After the first commodity 601 is taken out, the pair of limiting plates 531 and the pair of spring plungers 534 immediately return to their original positions in the normal state, and the push plate 521 pushes the rear commodity forward, and the pair of spring plungers 534 prevent the rear commodity from moving forward along the goods channel.

[0075] See Figures 14-19 , the goods channel 500 includes a lower support plate 511 and a goods channel inner lining 512 installed on the lower support plate 511. The lower support plate 511 is formed by bending a metal plate, and the goods channel inner lining 512 is processed by injection molding. The goods channel inner lining 512 has a pair of slide rails 5122, and chutes are respectively opened on the left and right sides of the push plate 521. The push plate 521 is slidably matched with the pair of slide rails by means of the chutes.

[0076] A pair of mounting shafts 532 are respectively arranged at the front end of the goods channel inner lining 512, and a pair of limiting plates 531 are respectively rotatably connected to each mounting shaft 532. In order to enable the limiting plates 531 to automatically reset after rotation, a limiting plate return spring 533 is respectively arranged between each limiting plate 531 and the goods channel inner lining 512. This return spring is selected as a torsion spring or a coil spring that can provide rotational torque.

[0077] See Figure 16 、 17 shown in Fig., the spring plunger 534 includes a plunger 5341, a compression spring 5342 and a steel ball 5340. The plunger 5341 is embedded and installed in the goods channel inner lining 512 and is located below the limiting plate 531. The steel ball 5340 always partially extends outside the plunger under the action of the compression spring 5342, so that the distance between the pair of steel balls 5340 is less than the width of the goods channel and less than the width of the sold commodity. In this embodiment, using a pair of spring plungers 534 can slow down the movement of the rear commodity and prevent the rear commodity from diving forward out of the goods channel under the thrust of the push plate.

[0078] In some embodiments, as an alternative to this solution, the spring plunger can also be replaced with a spring plate, and the convex part of the spring plate is oriented towards the commodity channel, such that the distance between a pair of spring plates is less than the width of the commodity channel and the commodity for sale, thereby achieving the purpose of buffering the movement speed of the commodity. The structure of the spring plate can adopt a "Ω" structure, or the spring plate is fixed to the inner lining of the goods channel obliquely on one side, with the other side being a free end that extends forward and inwardly into the commodity channel, forming a channel for the commodity to move unidirectionally from the back to the front.

[0079] In some embodiments, the spring plunger can be replaced with a bump that can undergo elastic deformation. The bump is made of a material with a friction coefficient greater than that of the inner lining of the goods channel, such as rubber material, silicone material, TPU material, etc., or the surface of the bump is provided with an uneven structure to increase the friction force. When the commodity passes over the bump, the friction force can be significantly increased, reducing the commodity shipping speed.

[0080] The lower support plate 511 has a horizontal portion that extends horizontally, side wings 5113 located on both sides of the horizontal portion, and a pair of hook portions 5111 located at the rear end of the horizontal portion. The lower support plate is integrally bent. Hook holes adapted to the hook portions 5111 are formed on the rear back plate 140 of the cabinet body 100, and the lower support plate 511 is detachably connected to the hook holes on the rear back plate 140 through the pair of hook portions 5111. In order to accommodate commodities of different heights, we also hope to be able to flexibly adjust the height between the upper and lower rows of goods channels. For this purpose, multiple rows of hook holes exceeding the number of goods channels can be formed on the rear back plate 140, so that the goods channel 500 can be installed in different hook holes according to the height of the commodity. In order to install the coil spring 522, a front positioning piece 5114 is provided at the front end of the lower support plate 511, and a rear positioning piece 5112 is provided at the rear end. Mounting holes are respectively formed on the front positioning piece 5114 and the rear positioning piece 5112.
