[0041] Example 1

[0042] See Figure 1-8As shown, the anti-drop cargo channel includes a mounting base 1, on which multiple side panels 2 are provided, and a cargo channel 3 is formed between two adjacent side panels 2, which includes: an anti-drop component 4, which is installed on the side panel 2, and has an anti-drop space 43 in the middle for the passage of goods; an adjustment component 5, which is installed on the side panel 2 on the inside and abuts against the anti-drop component 4 on the outside, and is used to adjust the anti-drop component 4.

[0043] The anti-drop component 4 is used to limit the position of the goods to prevent multiple goods from falling out of the cargo channel 3 at the same time. The anti-drop space 43 is adjusted by the adjustment component 5 so that the anti-drop component 4 can adapt to goods of various sizes. It has a simple structure and low cost.

[0044] Figure 2-6 As shown, in a further specific embodiment, the anti-drop component 4 includes a first clip 41 and a second clip 42, and the first clip 41 and the second clip 42 are respectively installed on the side panels 2 on both sides of the cargo aisle 3, and the anti-drop space 43 is formed between the first clip 41 and the second clip 42.

[0045] The anti-drop space 43 is provided to limit the position of the goods and prevent them from being squeezed out.

[0046] Figure 2-6 As shown, in a further specific embodiment, the first clip 41 includes a first mounting portion 411 and a first limiting portion 412. The first mounting portion 411 is mounted on the side panel 2, and the first end of the first limiting portion 412 is connected to the first mounting portion 411. The middle portion or the second end of the first limiting portion 412 protrudes into the cargo aisle 3 in an arc shape. The second clip 42 includes a second mounting portion 421 and a second limiting portion 422. The second mounting portion 421 is mounted on the side panel 2, and the first end of the second limiting portion 422 is connected to the second mounting portion 421. The middle portion or the second end of the second limiting portion 422 protrudes into the cargo aisle 3 in an arc shape.

[0047] As a preferred embodiment, the middle part of the first limiting portion 412 of this embodiment protrudes into the cargo aisle 3 in an arc shape. The arc-shaped first limiting portion 412 and the second limiting portion 422 can better limit the goods, especially for bottled goods. The structure is simple and practical.

[0048] Figure 2-7 As shown, in a further specific embodiment, the adjustment assembly 5 includes a first adjustment member 51 and a second adjustment member 52 , and the first adjustment member 51 and the second adjustment member 52 are respectively installed on two side surfaces of the side panel 2 .

[0049] It should be noted that, within a cargo aisle 3, the first clip 41 is adjusted by the second adjusting member 52 of one adjusting assembly 5, and the second clip 42 is adjusted by the first adjusting member 51 of another adjusting assembly 5. During the adjustment, the distance between the two clips is adjusted.

[0050] Figure 2-7 In a further specific embodiment, the first adjusting member 51 is provided with a first mounting hole 511 and a first mounting column 512, and the second adjusting member 52 is provided with a second mounting hole 521 and a second mounting column 522, the first mounting column 512 passes through the side panel 2 and is clamped to the second mounting hole 521, and the second mounting column 522 passes through the side panel 2 and is clamped to the first mounting hole 511.

[0051] By this arrangement, the first adjusting member 51 and the second adjusting member 52 are clamped together, and can be easily assembled and disassembled when adjustment is required later. The structure is simple and the practicability is strong.

[0052] Figure 2-7 In a further specific embodiment, the side panel 2 is provided with a plurality of adjustment holes 21, which are evenly spaced apart on the side panel 2. The first mounting post 512 and the second mounting post 522 extend through two of the adjustment holes 21. The contact surface between the first adjusting member 51 and the anti-drop assembly 4 is provided with a first slope 513, and the contact surface between the second adjusting member 52 and the anti-drop assembly 4 is provided with a second slope 523 and a second slope 523.

[0053] It should be noted that multiple adjustment holes 21 are provided along the depth direction of the cargo aisle 3. The position of the first adjustment member 51 and the second adjustment member 52 can be adjusted through the provision of multiple adjustment holes 21, that is, the first adjustment member 51 and the second adjustment member 52 can be removed from one adjustment hole 21 and installed in another adjustment hole 21. The ramp setting will squeeze the first clip 41 and the second clip 42 when the first adjustment member 51 and the second adjustment member 52 move toward the interior of the cargo aisle 3, causing the first clip 41 and the second clip 42 to close inward, reducing the size of the anti-drop space 43, so that the anti-drop space 43 can accommodate smaller-sized cargo.

[0054] In a further specific embodiment, the anti-drop assembly 4 is made of a transparent material. The transparent material can better observe the condition of the aisle 3 from the outside, with good lighting, and consumers can more intuitively observe the delivery status of the vending machine during the purchase process.
