[0024] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions of various embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the embodiments described are only some of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of them. Based on the embodiments described in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the device discloses an automatic delivery sausage grilling machine, including a main body 1, in which a plurality of heating rollers 2 are arranged, and a pushing mechanism 3 is arranged above the heating rollers 2. The pushing mechanism 3 is connected to a pushing plate 4 and drives the pushing plate 4 to move. When the pushing plate 4 moves, it pushes the food on the heating rollers 2 to move.

[0026] A plurality of heating rollers 2 are provided in the device, and sausages to be heated are placed between two adjacent heating rollers 2 .

[0027] The movement path of the push plate 4 is perpendicular to the projection of the heated roller 2 on the ground. As the push plate 4 moves, it pushes the first sausage it contacts to the next sausage position. This sausage is then pushed to the next position, and so on, until the sausage at the end is removed. Below the center is a discharge bin 6, into which the sausages at the end fall, achieving the purpose of shipping.

[0028] In addition to the discharge bin 6, a detection unit 5 is located at the end of the push plate 4's travel path. This detection unit 5 is mounted within the main body 1, below the heating roller 2 and above the discharge bin 6. The detection unit 5 is connected to the motor 31 to detect dropped food. The detection unit 5 can utilize an infrared sensor, a distance sensor, a photoelectric sensor, a laser sensor, or an ultrasonic sensor. Upon detecting dropped food, the motor 31 is immediately activated, stopping operation and preventing the push plate 4 from moving.

[0029] This device also includes an automatic vending system. After receiving an order from a user, the automatic vending system drives the pushing mechanism 3 to work and pushes the corresponding number of sausages into the discharge bin 6 according to the sausages ordered by the user. The detection unit 5 can count the number of sausages that have fallen into the discharge bin 6 under the current order. When the number required by the order is reached, the motor 31 can be driven to stop working so that the push plate 4 no longer moves, that is, no more sausages are pushed out. The automatic vending system is connected to various shopping platforms, and users can freely choose the platform to shop. The automatic vending system is provided with location information and ID information to record the location and ID of the sausage machine. After shopping on the platform, the user can select the sausage machine with the ID at the required location for delivery.

[0030] The pushing mechanism 3 of this device includes a motor 31 and a conveying assembly 32. The motor 31 drives the conveying assembly 32 to perform the conveying work, and the push plate 4 is detachably mounted on the conveying assembly 32. Among them, the structure of the conveying assembly 32 has various forms, and two forms are explained below.

[0031] The first one is to realize transmission in the form of a sprocket chain to drive the push plate 4 to move: the transmission component 32 includes two sprockets and chains at the head and tail, and the chain is connected and installed on the sprocket; connecting parts 41 are provided on the top of both sides of the push plate 4, and the connecting parts 41 are provided on the chain; the motor 31 drives one of its sprockets to rotate.

[0032] The second method is to use gears and racks to realize transmission and drive the push plate 4 to move: the transmission component 32 includes a gear and a rack, the rack is connected end to end into a ring shape and installed on the gear, and an auxiliary wheel is provided to support the rack; connecting parts 41 are provided on the top of both sides of the push plate 4, and the connecting parts 41 are provided on the rack; the motor drives the gear to rotate.

[0033] There are other transmission forms, such as belt drive.

[0034] In addition, the pushing mechanism 3 is further provided with a positioning device for detecting the position of the pushing plate 4 , and the positioning device signal is connected to the motor 31 .

[0035] The positioning device of this device includes a detection sensor arranged at the starting point of the moving path of the push plate 4. After the detection sensor at the starting point detects that the push plate 4 arrives here, the motor 31 stops working.

[0036] The positioning device further comprises a detection sensor at the end point of the moving path of the push plate 4. After the detection sensor at the end point detects that the push plate 4 has arrived at this point, it drives the motor 31 to work in the reverse direction to move the push plate 4 to the starting point.

[0037] The detection sensor is a distance measuring sensor, a photoelectric sensor, a laser sensor, or an ultrasonic sensor.

[0038] In addition to the above-mentioned starting point and end point detection sensor positioning devices, this device can be provided with a ranging probe corresponding to the pushing mechanism 3 on the rear cover 14 at the tail of the main body 1, and the ranging probe detects the distance between the push plate 4 and it; the ranging probe signal is connected to the motor 31 to change the rotation direction of the motor 31.

[0039] The minimum distance between the push plate 4 and the rear cover 14 of the present device is the end point of its moving path, and the maximum distance is the starting point of its moving path. Therefore, by detecting the distance between the push plate 4 and the rear cover 14, the position of the push plate 4 can be determined.

[0040] The main body 1 of the device is equipped with a mounting bracket 33, which mounts the push mechanism 3. The device's heating rollers are long, allowing for multiple rows of food to be heated, accelerating the cooking process. To this end, the device can be equipped with multiple sets of push mechanisms 3 to propel multiple push plates 4. Each set of push mechanisms 3 is equipped with a discharge bin 6 at its rear end, accommodating high-traffic scenarios.

[0041] Each set of pushing mechanisms 3 pushes a corresponding row of sausages. When the last sausage in the row falls into the discharge bin 6, which indicates that the push plate 4 has reached its final position, the positioning device sends a signal to the corresponding motor 31, moving the push plate 4 back to its initial position. The vending system also receives this signal, notifying the vendor that the entire row of food has been sold, and sends a message to the operator, reminding them to restock.

[0042] Every time a sausage falls out, the number of sausages will be subtracted from the vending system in a timely manner.

[0043] As attached Figure 3 As shown, the device has multiple discharge bins 6, allowing the automatic vending system to process multiple orders simultaneously. Furthermore, the storage bins 6 are marked with symbols for identification. Based on the user's order, the automatic vending system dispatches the push mechanism 3 to deliver the sausages to the corresponding storage bin 6. The identification symbol corresponding to the storage bin 6 is then fed back to the user, allowing the user to conveniently pick up the sausages corresponding to their order.

[0044] A driving part 11 is provided on both sides of the main body 1 of the device. A driving mechanism is provided in the driving part 11 and is connected to the heating roller 2 for driving the heating roller 2 to rotate. A top cover 13 is provided on the main body 1. The top cover 13 is provided with a transparent viewing area for observing the status of the internal food.

[0045] A heating element is provided in the heating roller 2 to increase the temperature of the heating roller 2 , and then the high-temperature heating roller 2 is used to heat the food.

[0046] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered in all respects as exemplary and non-restrictive. The scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims, not the foregoing description, and it is intended that all variations within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be encompassed within the present invention. Any reference numerals in the claims should not be construed as limiting the claim to which they relate.
