Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of automatic vending machines, in particular to an anti-theft device for an outward-turning take-out port of an automatic vending machine. Background Art

[0002] Currently, vending machines on the market all have a take-out opening at the bottom, with an inward-folding baffle on top. When using a vending machine, people simply push the baffle inward and reach in to retrieve the item. Because the inward-folding baffle has a certain barrier effect, it can prevent people from reaching through the take-out opening and taking items that are still on sale on the shelf. Therefore, the inward-folding structure design also has a certain anti-theft function.

[0003] As people's acceptance of vending machines grows, the variety of products they carry is also expanding, and larger items are now being sold. However, because the access openings of vending machines are typically narrow, the inward-turning baffle often hinders the removal of large items, impacting the user experience. Furthermore, while the inward-turning baffle prevents hands from circumventing the baffle and reaching the shelves, it can be easily bypassed with tools such as specially designed wire loops, and its anti-theft performance needs improvement.

[0004] Therefore, how to take out large-volume goods without hindrance under the condition of narrow space at the pickup port, and also have excellent anti-theft performance, so as to replace the structure of the inward-turning baffle and improve people's user experience, has become an urgent problem to be solved.
