[0002] Vending machines are machines that automatically deliver goods based on deposited coins or mobile payments. As a common form of commercial automation, vending machines are not restricted by time or location, saving labor and facilitating transactions, making them an important form of retail. Current vending machine technology requires each aisle within the machine to be equipped with an independent drive motor, which automatically pushes or transports goods within the aisle. However, as the number of aisles increases, the number of motors also increases.

Figure 11 yes Figure 10 Schematic diagram of the local enlarged structure at B in the middle, Figure 12The diagram is a schematic structural diagram of a lever 313 in a dispensing mechanism for a clip-type vending machine according to an embodiment of the present invention. The dispensing mechanism for a clip-type vending machine according to an embodiment of the present invention comprises a cabinet 1, a dispensing mechanism, and a pickup mechanism. The cabinet 1 comprises a support plate 12 and a plurality of partitions 13 disposed on the support plate 12. A cargo aisle 11 is formed between the support plate 12 and two adjacent partitions 13, i.e., one cargo aisle 11 is located between two adjacent partitions 13. The shipping mechanism includes at least a pushing mechanism and a limiting mechanism. The limiting mechanism is arranged inside the cargo channel 11. The limiting mechanism includes a base 211, a first slider 212, a second slider 213, a third slider 214, a fourth slider 215, a fifth slider 216 and a sixth slider 217. The base 211 is connected to the cabinet 1. The first slider 212, the second slider 213, the third slider 214, the fourth slider 215, the fifth slider 216 and the sixth slider 217 are hinged in sequence. The first slider 212 is hinged to the base 211, the third slider 214 is slidably connected to the base 211, and the sixth slider 217 is arranged on the base 211. The pushing mechanism includes a bracket 221, a mounting plate 222, a pulley 223, a pushing assembly, a bearing 225, and an elastic member 226. The bracket 221 is connected to the third slider 214, the mounting plate 222 is disposed on the cabinet 1, the pulley 223 is rotatably connected to the bracket 221, and the pushing assembly is located inside the aisle 11. The pushing assembly is used to push the goods 5 to the exit 111 of the aisle 11. The bearing 225 is connected to the mounting plate 222 and extends through the bracket 221. The elastic member 226 is sleeved on the bearing 225 and is located between the mounting plate 222 and the bracket 221. In the picking mechanism, the lever 313 and the pulley 223 are matched with each other, and the drive assembly and the lever 313 are connected to each other. The drive assembly drives the lever 313 to push the pulley 223 to move along the length of the aisle 11.

[0036] When the lever 313 pushes the pulley 223, the pulley 223 drives the connected bracket 221 and the third slider 214 to move. Due to the hinged connection between the third slider 214 and the first slider 212, the second slider 213, and the fourth and fifth sliders 216, the first and second sliders 212, 213 move from their originally arched positions to a flat position, thereby releasing the previously clamped item 5. Simultaneously, the fourth and fifth sliders 215, 216 move from their flat positions to an arched position, clamping the subsequent item 5. This not only improves the stability of the items 5 and the efficiency of picking up the items, but also reduces the number of mechanical drive components, thereby reducing failure rates and maintenance costs. Furthermore, the system utilizes a single power source for the drive assembly, directly operating the lever 313 and the pulley 223 to sequentially pick up items 5 from multiple aisles 11. This simplifies the complex structure of conventional vending machines, which requires a separate drive motor for each aisle 11. In addition, those skilled in the art will appreciate that, in the delivery device for a clip-type vending machine provided in an embodiment of the present invention, there is no restriction on the specific structure of the pushing component. It is only necessary to use the pushing component to push the goods 5 located inside the aisle 11 toward the exit 111 close to the aisle 11. For example, the pushing component includes a push plate 224 and a spring, and the spring is connected to the push plate 224 and the cabinet 1 respectively. When multiple goods 5 are placed inside the aisle 11, the multiple goods 5 push the push plate 224 along the exit 111 away from the aisle 11, so that the spring connected to the push plate 224 is in an extended state. After the thrust is removed, the spring recovers its deformation so that the push plate 224 pushes the goods 5 toward the exit 111 close to the aisle 11 until the goods 5 are pushed to the exit 111 of the aisle 11.

[0037] In this embodiment, a limiting mechanism in the delivery mechanism is disposed within the cargo aisle 11. The base 211 of the limiting mechanism is connected to the cabinet 1. A first slider 212, a second slider 213, a third slider 214, a fourth slider 215, a fifth slider 216, and a sixth slider 217 are hinged to each other in sequence. The first slider 212 and the base 211 are hinged to each other, the third slider 214 is slidably connected to the base 211, and the sixth slider 217 is disposed on the base 211. A bracket 221 of the pushing mechanism is connected to the third slider 214. A mounting plate 222 is disposed in the cabinet 1. A pulley 223 is rotatably connected to the bracket 221. A pushing assembly is disposed within the cargo aisle 11 and is used to push the goods 5 to the exit 111 of the cargo aisle 11. A bearing 225 is connected to the mounting plate 222 and extends through the bracket 221. An elastic member 226 is sleeved on the bearing 225 and is located between the mounting plate 222 and the bracket 221. The lever 313 and the pulley 223 in the picking mechanism match each other, and the driving component and the lever 313 are connected to each other. The driving component drives the lever 313 to push the pulley 223 to move along the length extension direction of the cargo channel 11. When the user purchases the designated product 5, the driving assembly will drive the lever 313 to move in the direction close to the pulley 223, so that the lever 313 drives the pulley 223 to drive the bracket 221 and the third slider 214 to move. At this time, after the first slider 212 and the second slider 213 are respectively switched from their original arched state to the flat state, the first slider 212 and the second slider 213 will release the corresponding product 5, so that the product 5 can be moved outside the cargo aisle 11. At the same time, the fourth slider 215 and the fifth slider 216 are respectively switched from their original flat state to the arched state, so that the fourth slider 215 and the fifth slider 216 will clamp the corresponding product 5, so that the product 5 is fixed in the cargo aisle 11, thereby overcoming the technical defect of the prior art that a driving motor is required to be provided in each cargo aisle 11. It is only necessary to install a driving assembly in the picking mechanism to drive the lever 313 to drive the pulley 223 to clamp or release the product 5, which is conducive to reducing the complexity of the equipment, reducing costs, reducing failure rates, and improving maintenance convenience. Thereby achieving the technical effect of reducing costs and failure rates.

[0038] In one embodiment, the first slider 212 is hingedly connected to the base 211 and the second slider 213 at both ends. The first end 2141 of the third slider 214 is hingedly connected to the second slider 213. The connecting section 2142 of the third slider 214 is slidably disposed on the base 211. The connecting section 2142 can move along the length of the aisle 11. The connecting section 2142 is connected to the first end 2141 and the second end 2143, respectively. The second end 2143 of the third slider 214 is hingedly connected to the fourth slider 215. The fifth slider 216 is hingedly connected to the fourth slider 215 and the sixth slider 217 at both ends. The sixth slider 217 is fixedly mounted on the base 211. When a user purchases a designated item 5, the bucket 311 moves to the corresponding aisle 11 and the drive assembly is activated, driving the lever 313 to move toward the pulley 223, thereby pushing the pulley 223 and the bracket 221 connected thereto. The movement of the bracket 221 causes the connecting section 2142 of the third slider 214 to slide on the base 211, and the first end 2141 and second end 2143 of the synchronous belt 3123 act on the second slider 213 and the fourth slider 215, respectively. Due to the hinged connection between the first and second sliders 212 and 213, and the fourth and fifth sliders 215 and 216, as well as the fixing action of the first and second latches 23 and 24, the first and second sliders 212 and 213 transition from their originally arched positions to their flattened positions, releasing the goods 5 into the receiving chamber 3111 of the bucket 311. Simultaneously, the fourth and fifth sliders 215 and 216 transition to their arched positions, clamping the subsequent goods 5.

[0039] In some embodiments, the delivery mechanism further includes a first latch 23 and a second latch 24. The other end of the first slider 212 is hingedly connected to one end of the second slider 213 via the first latch 23. The first latch 23 is provided with a first protrusion 231 at each end, which can be cylindrical. The other end of the fourth slider 215 is hingedly connected to one end of the fifth slider 216 via the second latch 24. The second latch 24 is provided with a second protrusion 241 at each end, which can be cylindrical and parallel to the first protrusion 231. The first protrusion 231 on the first latch 23 and the second protrusion 241 on the second latch 24 can effectively prevent the first latch 23 and the second pin 24 from falling off or loosening during the hinging process, and the first protrusion 231 on the first latch 23 and the second protrusion 241 on the second latch 24 respectively increase the contact area with the corresponding goods 5, which is conducive to achieving precise and stable control and transmission of the goods 5 and improving stability.

[0040] In some embodiments, the two opposing limiting mechanisms are respectively a first limiting mechanism and a second limiting mechanism, and a bracket 221 is located between the first limiting mechanism and the second limiting mechanism. The bracket 221 is connected to the third slider 214 of the first limiting mechanism and the third slider 214 of the second limiting mechanism, respectively, so that the bracket 221 drives the third slider 214 of the first limiting mechanism and the third slider 214 of the second limiting mechanism to move in the same direction. The first limiting mechanism and the second limiting mechanism are respectively arranged on both sides of the corresponding goods 5. When the bracket 221 moves, the third sliders 214 of the two limiting mechanisms move synchronously, causing the first slider 212 and the second slider 213, and the fourth slider 215 and the fifth slider 216 of the two limiting mechanisms to switch states simultaneously on the cargo aisle 11 on both sides. This is beneficial to improving the transmission efficiency of the goods 5, reducing the risk of mechanical failure caused by uneven force on one side of the goods 5, and facilitating the secure clamping of the goods 5.

[0041] As an embodiment, the third slider 214 of the first limiting mechanism is opposite to the third slider 214 of the second limiting mechanism, the first slider 212 of the first limiting mechanism is opposite to the first slider 212 of the second limiting mechanism, and the sixth slider 217 of the first limiting mechanism is opposite to the sixth slider 217 of the second limiting mechanism. The bracket 221 drives the third slider 214 of the first limiting mechanism and the third slider 214 of the second limiting mechanism to move toward the exit 111 close to the cargo channel 11, so that the distance between the second slider 213 of the first limiting mechanism and the second slider 213 of the second limiting mechanism gradually decreases, and the distance between the fifth slider 216 of the first limiting mechanism and the fifth slider 216 of the second limiting mechanism gradually increases. Alternatively, the bracket 221 drives the third slider 214 of the first limiting mechanism and the third slider 214 of the second limiting mechanism to move respectively in a direction away from the exit 111 of the aisle 11, so that the distance between the second slider 213 of the first limiting mechanism and the second slider 213 of the second limiting mechanism gradually increases, and the distance between the fifth slider 216 of the first limiting mechanism and the fifth slider 216 of the second limiting mechanism gradually decreases. This provides greater flexibility and adaptability in the clamping and releasing process of the goods 5. When the goods 5 need to be released, the third slider 214 moves toward the exit 111 of the aisle 11, causing the first slider 212 and the second slider 213 to release the goods 5 in front, while the fifth slider 216 and the sixth slider 217 clamp the goods 5 behind. Conversely, the goods 5 in front are clamped and the goods 5 behind are released, ensuring the continuity and stability of the goods 5 during the transmission process, thereby improving the overall performance and user experience of the vending machine.

[0042] In some embodiments, the cabinet 1 includes a support plate 12 and multiple partitions 13, the multiple partitions 13 are arranged on the support plate 12, the base 211 is arranged on the partition 13, and the cargo aisle 11 is located between two adjacent partitions 13, so that each cargo aisle 11 can independently and stably carry goods 5, thereby improving the overall carrying capacity and space utilization of the vending machine.

[0043] As an embodiment, the support plate 12 can be located between the pulley 223 and the partition 13. A guide groove can also be provided on the support plate 12. The bracket 221 passes through the guide groove and is connected to the third slider 214. The push assembly is slidably arranged inside the cargo lane 11. It will be understood by those skilled in the art that the specific structure of the guide groove is not limited in the delivery device for a clip-type vending machine provided in the embodiment of the present invention. It is only necessary that the bracket 221 passes through the guide groove and can be connected to the third slider 214. The length extension direction of the guide groove is the same as the length extension direction of the cargo lane 11. The bracket 221 can drive the third slider 214 to move along the length extension direction of the guide groove. The guide groove makes the bracket 221 more stable and accurate during movement, reducing the risk of mechanical failure caused by shaking or offset. The sliding setting of the push assembly ensures that the goods 5 can smoothly enter the receiving bin 3111 of the bucket 311 during the pushing process, thereby improving the delivery efficiency and accuracy of the vending machine.

[0044] In one embodiment, the drive assembly includes a first synchronous wheel 3121, a second synchronous wheel 3122, a synchronous belt 3123, a driver 3124, and a rotating shaft 3125. The first synchronous wheel 3121 and the second synchronous wheel 3122 are rotatably mounted on the bucket body 311. The synchronous belt 3123 is wound around the first synchronous wheel 3121 and the second synchronous wheel 3122. The driver 3124 is connected to the first synchronous wheel 3121, the rotating shaft 3125 is connected to the second synchronous wheel 3122, and the shifting rod 313 is connected to the rotating shaft 3125. The driver 3124 drives the second synchronous wheel 3122 to drive the shifting rod 313 toward or away from the pulley 223. The use of the synchronous wheels and the synchronous belt 3123 makes the drive assembly more stable and efficient in transmitting power. The driver 3124 drives the synchronous belt 3123 and the second synchronous wheel 3122 to rotate by controlling the rotation of the first synchronous wheel 3121, thereby realizing the precise movement of the shift rod 313, which is conducive to simplifying the structure of the driving mechanism, improving the transmission efficiency and accuracy, and ensuring the stability and reliability of the vending machine during the delivery process.

[0045] As one embodiment, the bucket body 311 includes a base 3112 and a baffle 3113. The baffle 3113 is disposed on the base 3112. The base 3112 supports the driver 3124, the first synchronous wheel 3121, and the second synchronous wheel 3122. The base 3112 and the baffle 3113 together form a cargo receiving compartment 3111. The drive assembly also includes a paddle 314 and two micro switches 315. The paddle 314 is connected to the rotating shaft 3125. The two micro switches 315 are respectively disposed on the base 3112, with the paddle 314 located between the two micro switches 315. The cargo receiving compartment 3111 formed by the base 3112 and the baffle 3113 has a cargo inlet that faces the cargo aisle 11. Goods 5 can enter the cargo receiving compartment 3111 through this cargo inlet. The paddle 314 and the micro switch 315 provide a more precise control and feedback mechanism for the vending machine. When the lever 313 rotates forward to push the pulley 223 to drive the bracket 221 to move, the rotating shaft 3125 drives the paddle 314 to rotate and triggers one micro switch 315. At this time, the micro switch 315 limits the range of forward rotation of the lever 313; or when the lever 313 rotates backward to move away from the pulley 223, the rotating shaft 3125 drives the paddle 314 to rotate and triggers another micro switch 315. At this time, the micro switch 315 limits the range of reverse rotation of the lever 313. At the same time, when the lever 313 rotates backward to contact the other micro switch 315, the lever 313 is located at the above-mentioned inlet, and the lever 313 is used to block and limit the goods 5 moving into the receiving bin 3111 at the inlet to prevent the goods 5 from falling from the receiving bin 3111.

[0046] In some embodiments, the lifting mechanism 32 further includes a first movable member 321 and a second movable member 322, wherein the first movable member 321 is disposed on the cabinet 1, and the second movable member 322 is connected to the first movable member 321, which is connected to the bucket 311. The first movable member 321 drives the second movable member 322 to move along the X-axis, and the second movable member 322 drives the bucket 311 to move along the Y-axis. It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that the specific structures of the first movable member 321 and the second movable member 322 are not limited in the dispensing device for a clip-type vending machine provided in the embodiment of the present invention. It is only necessary to realize that the first movable member 321 drives the second movable member 322 to move in the X-axis direction, and the second movable member 322 drives the bucket 311 to move in the Y-axis direction, so that the bucket 311 can be moved to the corresponding aisle 11. This can improve the vending machine's dispensing efficiency and accuracy, and meet the user's demand for quick and accurate pickup.

[0047] In order to provide a detailed description of the vending machine provided by the present invention, the above embodiment 1 provides a detailed description of a delivery device for a clip-type vending machine. Based on the same utility model concept, the present application also provides a vending machine, see embodiment 2 for details.

[0048] The second embodiment of the present invention provides an automatic vending machine, further comprising a cabinet door 4 and a pickup door 41. The cabinet door 4 is rotatably mounted on the cabinet body 1, and the pickup door 41 is rotatably mounted on the cabinet body 1. The cabinet door 4 and the pickup door 41 provide the automatic vending machine with improved security and convenience. The cabinet door 4 remains closed when the vending machine is not in use, effectively preventing dust, insects, and the like from entering the interior of the vending machine, thereby protecting the hygiene and quality of the goods 5. Furthermore, a lock may be provided on the cabinet door 4 to prevent unauthorized access and increase the security of the vending machine. The pickup door 41 may be positioned higher than the ground, allowing users to retrieve goods without bending over, making it more convenient for users to retrieve goods. When the bucket body 311 moves to the user's pickup position, the pickup door 41 automatically opens, allowing users to directly remove goods 5 from the bucket body 311. This improves the user experience, reduces the complexity of vending machine operation, and enables users to complete the purchase process more quickly.

[0049] Finally, it should be noted that the above specific implementation methods are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model and are not limiting. Although the utility model is described in detail with reference to examples, ordinary technicians in this field should understand that the technical solution of the utility model can be modified or replaced by equivalents without departing from the spirit and scope of the technical solution of the utility model, which should be included in the scope of the claims of the utility model.
