Through the operation of the touch screen 32, the automatic packaging device 43 above it can seal the tableware with plastic wrap, so that it can be directly packed and taken away.

[0052] In the second embodiment of the present invention, Figure 4 As shown, the touch screen 32 is electrically connected and signal-connected to the controller 31, and the controller 31 is electrically connected and signal-connected to the code scanning sensor 12. The staff inputs the opening instruction of the tableware entrance 11 through the touch screen 32, and the controller 31 controls the tableware entrance 11 to open according to the opening instruction of the touch screen 32. At the same time, the controller 31 controls the code scanning sensor 12 to start. Subsequently, the staff can place the tableware on the lifting shelf 2, and the code scanning sensor 12 senses and scans the barcode at the bottom of the tableware. The code scanning sensor 12 transmits the information of the barcode to the controller 31, and the controller 31 records the storage information of the tableware in sequence. The staff can close the tableware entrance 11 manually or through the touch screen 32. After the controller 31 controls the tableware entrance 11 to close, the controller 31 controls the code scanning sensor 12 to close.

[0053] This embodiment realizes automatic opening and closing of the code scanning sensor 12 by setting the code scanning sensor 12 to be started when the tableware entry port 11 is opened, and to be turned off after the tableware entry port 11 is closed, without the need for staff operation, thus saving electricity when the code scanning sensor 12 is not in use.

[0054] In the third embodiment of the present invention, as Figure 4 As shown, the touch screen 32 is electrically connected and signal-connected to the controller 31, and the controller 31 is electrically connected and signal-connected to the ultrasonic sensor 23 and the lifting shelf 2, respectively. The staff inputs the opening instruction of the tableware storage port 11 through the touch screen 32, and the controller 31 controls the tableware storage port 11 to open according to the opening instruction of the touch screen 32. At the same time, the controller 31 controls the ultrasonic sensor 14 to start. Subsequently, when the staff puts the tableware on the lifting shelf 2, the tableware is higher than the ultrasonic wave emitted by the ultrasonic sensor 14. At this time, the ultrasonic sensor 14 senses the tableware and generates an induction signal that is transmitted to the controller 31. The controller 31 controls the lifting shelf 2 to lower the tableware according to the induction signal until the tableware is lower than the ultrasonic wave emitted by the ultrasonic sensor 14. The lifting shelf 2 stops lowering the tableware, and the controller 31 calculates the height to which the tableware has been lowered and records it. When the stacked tableware drops to the limit in the lifting shelf 2, the controller 31 will control the sound of a prompt, that is, the stacking of the tableware in the lifting shelf 2 is completed. The staff can close the tableware inlet 11 manually or through the touch screen 32. After the controller 31 controls the tableware inlet 11 to be closed, the controller 31 controls the ultrasonic sensor 14 to be turned off. At this time, the controller 31 also controls the lifting shelf 2 to place a piece of tableware outside the top opening of the lifting shelf 2 for displaying the tableware to the customer.

[0055] This embodiment activates the ultrasonic sensor 14 when the tableware inlet 11 is opened, and deactivates the ultrasonic sensor 14 when the tableware inlet 11 is closed. This automatically activates and deactivates the ultrasonic sensor 14, eliminating the need for operator operation and saving electricity when the ultrasonic sensor 14 is not in use. The ultrasonic sensor 14 senses the tableware placed on the lift rack 2, controlling the lift rack 2 to lower the tableware to a corresponding height, making it easier to stack the tableware within the lift rack 2.

[0056] In the fourth embodiment of the present invention, as Figure 5As shown, the touch screen 32 is electrically and signal-connected to the controller 31, and the controller 31 is electrically and signal-connected to the timer 33. The customer selects the type of tableware, enters the quantity, and scans the code to successfully pay through the touch screen 32, thereby inputting an opening instruction for the tableware outlet 13. The controller 31 controls the lifting shelf 2 to raise the tableware to a corresponding height based on the input quantity in the opening instruction of the touch screen 32. The controller 31 then controls the tableware outlet 13 to open. After the tableware outlet 13 is opened, the controller 31 controls the timer 33 to count the set time. After the timer 33 finishes counting, it sends a signal to the controller 31, which controls the closure of the tableware outlet 13.

[0057] In this embodiment, the customer inputs the quantity on the touch screen 32 to control the lifting shelf 2 to raise the tableware to a corresponding height, so that the tableware rises from the inside of the lifting shelf 2 to the outside of the top opening of the lifting shelf 2, making it convenient for the customer to take the required number of tableware and preventing other tableware from coming into contact with the customer.

[0058] In the fifth embodiment of the present invention, as Figure 5 As shown, the touch screen 32 is electrically and signal-connected to the controller 31, which is in turn electrically and signal-connected to the alarm 34. When the tableware outlet 13 is open and a customer fails to pay, the controller 31 controls the ultrasonic sensor 14 to turn on. When the tableware is above the ultrasonic wave emitted by the ultrasonic sensor 14, the ultrasonic sensor 14 senses the tableware and generates a sensing signal, which is transmitted to the controller 31. Subsequently, when the tableware outlet 13 is open and the controller 31 fails to receive a sensing signal from the ultrasonic sensor 14, the controller 31 controls the alarm 34 to sound an alarm, preventing the tableware from being taken without payment. When the tableware outlet 13 is open and the controller 31 receives a payment success signal, the controller 31 controls the ultrasonic sensor 14 to turn off, thereby relieving the alarm. If the controller 31 fails to receive a payment success signal and the tableware outlet 13 is closed, the controller 31 controls the ultrasonic sensor 14 to turn off, thereby relieving the alarm.

[0059] In this embodiment, an alarm 34 is provided. When a customer fails to pay, the ultrasonic sensor 14 senses the tableware placed on the lifting shelf 2 to control whether the alarm 34 will sound an alarm, thereby preventing the tableware from being taken away without payment.

[0060] In the sixth embodiment of the present invention, as Figure 6As shown, the sterilization and disinfection device 6 is connected to the controller 31, which is electrically and signal-connected to the timer 33. The touch screen 32 allows for sterilization and disinfection of the vending machine 1 each time a staff member restocks the tableware shelves 2, as well as the time interval and frequency of sterilization and disinfection after the staff member restocks the tableware. After the controller 31 closes the tableware inlet 11, it first disconnects the tableware outlet 13 to prevent customers from opening the tableware outlet 13 during this period, and then activates the sterilization and disinfection device 6 to perform sterilization and disinfection. After sterilization and disinfection is completed, the controller 31 controls the timer 33 to count the set time. After the timer 33 finishes counting, it sends a signal to the controller 31, causing the controller 31 to restore the connection to the tableware outlet 13. The controller 31 can also control the touch screen 32 to display the disinfection time. The controller 31 activates the sterilization and disinfection device 6 and simultaneously disconnects the tableware outlet 13 and the tableware inlet 11.
