[0030] Inside the cabinet body 10, a storage room 11 and a steam-roast room 12 are formed by a partition. A material box rack 111 is arranged in the storage room 11 and is installed closely against both side walls respectively. The material box rack 111 is a matrix display rack with multiple longitudinally arranged storage grids. Along the height direction of each column of storage grids, there are several material box storage positions for placing material boxes. The material boxes are used for storing food. The multiple columns of storage grids can be used for storing various different flavors of food, such as pizza, pie, etc.

[0031] A refrigeration device is arranged at the bottom of the storage room 11 to keep the food stored in the storage room 11 at a low temperature and prevent the food ingredients from spoiling and deteriorating in a closed environment.

[0032] The steam-roast room 12 is connected to the storage room 11 through a notch opened on the partition. A box-opening lifting mechanism 30 is installed corresponding to the notch position to receive the material box transported from the storage room 11, open the material box, and lift the food to a preset height. The oven mechanism 40 is arranged behind the box-opening lifting mechanism 30. The oven mechanism 40 receives the food lifted by the box-opening lifting mechanism 30 and sends it into the oven for thermal processing.

[0033] Please refer to Figure 3 - Figure 7, the cartridge transfer mechanism 20 is arranged in the storage chamber 11 and clamped between two cartridge racks 111. The cartridge transfer mechanism 20 includes a translation module 21 and a clamping unit 22. The translation module 21 includes a top cross beam 211 at the top end inside the storage chamber 11, a longitudinal movement module 212 arranged in parallel with the top cross beam 211 and at the bottom end inside the storage chamber 11, and a lifting module 213 vertically connected between the top cross beam 211 and the longitudinal movement module 212. The lifting module 213 includes a vertical rail and a sliding body installed on the vertical rail and capable of lifting along the vertical rail. Both ends of the vertical rail are installed on the top cross beam 211 and the longitudinal movement module 212 and slide along the top cross beam 211 and the longitudinal movement module 212. The clamping unit 22 is slidably installed on the lifting module 213. The clamping unit 22 includes a translation guide plate 221 and a lifting clamping plate group 222. The translation guide plate 221 is horizontally installed on the sliding body and lifts along with the sliding body along the vertical rail. The lifting clamping plate group 222 is slidably installed on the translation guide plate 221. The lifting clamping plate group 222 has two clamping plates capable of sliding relatively up and down. The lifting clamping plate group 222 can slide to both ends of the translation guide plate 221 and extend into the cartridge rack 111. The two clamping plates clamp the stored cartridge, and then the lifting clamping plate group 222 retracts to the middle position of the translation guide plate 221. In this way, the cartridge can be taken out from the cartridge rack 111, and then the longitudinal movement module 212 moves to the notch opened on the partition plate, and the clamped cartridge is transferred to the cartridge opening and lifting mechanism 30 arranged inside the steaming and baking chamber 12.

[0034] It can be understood that in order to improve the sealing performance inside the storage chamber 11, an isolation door mechanism 23 is provided at the place where the storage chamber 11 enters the steaming and baking chamber 12. Please refer to Figure 8 , the isolation door mechanism 23 includes a door frame 231, a door body 232 and a door body driving member 233. The door frame 231 is installed at the connection between the storage chamber 11 and the steaming and baking chamber 12. The bottom surface inside the frame of the door frame 231 corresponds to the top surface of the cartridge opening and lifting mechanism 30. The door body 232 is arranged on the door frame 231 in a liftable manner. The door body driving member 233 adopts a motor gear and rack structure. The motor is installed on the door body 232, the gear is installed on the output shaft of the motor, and the rack is installed on the door frame 231 and meshes with the gear to drive the door body 232 to lift in cooperation with the rack installed on the door frame 231, driving the door body 232 to lift. In this way, when feeding, the cartridge enters the steaming and baking chamber 12 from the storage chamber 11, and the door body 232 is lifted. When not feeding, the door body 232 is closed.

[0035] Please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6, the opening and lifting mechanism 30 is used to open the material box and lift the food materials in the material box. The opening and lifting mechanism 30 includes a material receiving platform 31, a lifting bottom plate 32, and a jacking rod structure 33 installed on the lifting bottom plate 32. The material receiving platform 31 is fixedly connected inside the steam roasting chamber 12. The lifting bottom plate 32 is installed below the material receiving platform 31 in a liftable manner. Understandably, the lifting bottom plate 32 is driven to lift by a motor screw structure. The jacking rod structure 33 includes a long push rod 331 and a short push rod 332. The long push rod 331 and the short push rod 332 can pass upward through the material receiving platform 31. The height of the long push rod 331 is greater than that of the short push rod 332. The long push rod 331 is located on one side of the lifting bottom plate 32, and the short push rod 332 is located at the middle position of the lifting bottom plate 32. The area formed by the distribution of the long push rod 331 and the short push rod 332 generally corresponds to the top surface area size of the material box. Corresponding through holes for the long push rod 331 and the short push rod 332 to penetrate are formed on the bottom surface of the material box. In this way, when it is necessary to take out the food materials from the material box, only the lifting bottom plate 32 needs to rise, then the long push rod 331 and the short push rod 332 penetrate into the material box from the through holes on the bottom surface of the material box. The long push rod 331 will abut against the lid of the material box, and the lid will rotate and open around its connection with the box frame. Furthermore, the short push rod 332 will hold up the food materials. As the lifting bottom plate 32 moves upward, the food materials will extend out of the material box and be lifted to a preset height.

[0036] The oven mechanism 40 includes an oven 41, a grill 42, and a box door 43. The grill 42 is slidably accommodated in the oven 41. When the food materials are separated from the material box and lifted to a certain height, the grill 42 slides out of the oven 41 and slides below the food materials. The lifting bottom plate 32 descends, and the long push rod 331 and the short push rod 332 descend correspondingly. The food materials held up by the short push rod 332 will be received on the grill 42. Understandably, a slot 421 is formed in the insertion direction of the grill 42 to allow the grill 42 to avoid the long push rod 331 and the short push rod 332, so that the grill 42 can extend below the food materials to receive the food materials. The box door 43 is arranged at the opening end of the oven 41 in a liftable manner, rising to open or descending to close. The box door 43 is closed during steam roasting and opened when sending out the food materials.

[0037] The intelligent steam roasting integrated meal vending machine further includes a material box pushing mechanism 50 arranged at the bottom of the material receiving platform 31 for pushing the material box to slide along the material receiving platform 31. The material box pushing mechanism 50 has a material box pushing rod and a translation driving member. The material box pushing rod can extend upward through the material receiving platform 31 and is located at the rear side of the material box, and drives the material box to move along the material receiving platform 31 under the drive of the translation driving member.

[0038] After the food ingredients are steamed and roasted, the grill 42 slides out of the oven 41 to deliver the processed food ingredients. The food ingredients are correspondingly located above the box-opening lifting mechanism 30. The lifting bottom plate 32 rises, and the long push rod 331 correspondingly opens the lid of the food box located on the material receiving platform 31. After rising to the preset height, the short push rod 332 receives the food ingredients on the grill 42. The grill 42 retracts into the oven 41. Then the lifting bottom plate 32 descends, and the food ingredients will descend together with the short push rod 332. The food ingredients return to the food box. As the lifting bottom plate 32 returns to the lowest original position, the jacking rod structure disengages from the food box, and the lid closes under its own weight. Thus, the food box contains the heated food ingredients at this time. Then, the box pushing mechanism 50 starts to act. The box pushing mechanism 50 pushes the food box in the direction of the pick-up window 102 of the cabinet 10. When it reaches the end of the material receiving platform 31, the food box is located outside the pick-up window 102, facilitating consumers to pick it up. Please refer to Figure 1 , a lifting door 121 is provided on the inner side of the cabinet wall of the steaming and roasting chamber 12 corresponding to the pick-up window 102. When the consumer places an order and the corresponding food is processed and sent to the end of the material receiving platform 31, the lifting door 121 opens to allow the consumer to pick up the food box from the pick-up window 102 of the steaming and roasting materials. It can be understood that an intelligent integrated steaming and roasting vending machine further includes a control system to control the conveying and processing actions of the food ingredients by the internal mechanisms of the cabinet 10, realizing the intelligent control of the vending machine.

[0039] In summary, the intelligent integrated steaming and roasting vending machine of the present invention can realize the intelligent steaming and roasting of food ingredients, automatically process and serve meals, improve the meal serving efficiency, reduce the labor intensity of workers, lower the operating cost, and improve the food hygiene conditions; the intelligent integrated steaming and roasting vending machine has a wide range of applications and can be used in various public places, such as fast food restaurants, shopping malls, service areas, etc.; it adopts the form of distributing dishes on a single food tray, which is convenient for robots or manual delivery at the back end; and a refrigeration device is provided in the intelligent integrated steaming and roasting vending machine to refrigerate and preserve the dishes, having the function of a cold storage; the intelligent cooking vending machine occupies a small area and its structure is easy to disassemble and transport; the present invention can be used as a part of an intelligent kitchen or a food and beverage conveying line.
