AI Technical Summary
In existing anti-theft vending machines, when goods fall from the dispensing channel, they may hit the inner wall of the cabinet and bounce into other channels, making it impossible for users to retrieve the selected goods. At the same time, thieves can use the control device to stay in the receiving box for a long time, blocking the anti-theft door at the top of the falling space to steal low-end goods.
The system employs a lifting device and an anti-theft device. The lifting device controls the raising and lowering of the receiving box through a drive motor and drive belt. The anti-theft device uses an anti-theft cylinder and an anti-theft plate to block the connection between the falling space and the discharge port, ensuring the safe falling of goods and preventing theft.
It achieves safe delivery and anti-theft functions for goods, making it convenient for users to retrieve their items and improving the anti-theft effect of the vending machine, thus preventing theft.

[0004] However, when the goods drop from the goods placing channel, the goods may hit the inner wall of the cabinet and then rebound into other goods placing channels, so that the user cannot take out the selected goods. CONTENT OF THE UTILITY MODEL
[0005] In view of the deficiencies of the prior art, the purpose of the present application is to provide a theftproof vending machine to solve the technical problem that in the prior art, when the goods drop from the goods placing channel, the goods may hit the inner wall of the cabinet and then rebound into other goods placing channels, so that the user cannot take out the selected goods.
[0006] The above purpose of the present application is achieved by the following technical scheme: a theftproof vending machine comprises a cabinet, a plurality of goods placing channels are formed in the cabinet, a vertical falling space is formed in front of the goods placing channel, a goods outlet penetrating through the cabinet is formed at the lower end of the falling space, a conveying device is arranged in the goods placing channel, a control device for controlling the conveying device is arranged on one side of the cabinet, sliding rails are arranged on both sides of the falling space along the height direction of the cabinet, and a goods lifting device is arranged on the sliding rails.
[0007] Further, the lifting device comprises driving motors arranged at the upper and lower ends of the sliding rails, driving belts respectively sleeved on the output ends of the two driving motors, and a goods receiving box arranged in the falling space, connecting pieces are arranged on both sides of the goods receiving box and extend towards the sliding rails, connecting pieces are arranged on the connecting pieces and fixedly connected to one side of the driving belts, and the driving motors are signal connected to the control device.
[0008] By adopting the above technical scheme, after the user selects the goods in a certain goods storage channel through the control device, the control device controls the driving motor to rotate to make the driving belt rotate around the driving motor, so that the goods receiving box is lifted to the lower side of the goods storage channel, then the control device controls the conveying device to start conveying the goods in the goods storage channel out of the goods storage channel, the goods fall into the goods receiving box, the control device controls the driving motor to reverse, so that the goods receiving box is lowered to the goods outlet, and the user takes the goods out of the goods receiving box, so that the goods will not fall from the goods storage channel and hit the inner wall of the cabinet to rebound into other goods storage channels, thereby avoiding the problem that the user cannot take out the selected goods, and the vending machine is more convenient for the user to use.
[0009] Further, the goods outlet of the cabinet is provided with a theftproof door, rotating shafts are fixedly arranged on both sides of the upper end of the theftproof door, and the rotating shafts are rotationally connected to the cabinet. A through opening is formed in the side of the goods receiving box close to the theftproof door.
[0010] By adopting the above technical scheme, the theftproof door is arranged to prevent someone from stealing the goods in the lower goods storage channel through the falling space after the goods receiving box is lifted, but when the goods receiving box falls to the goods outlet, the rotation of the theftproof door is blocked, so that the user cannot take out the goods. The through opening is arranged to solve this technical problem.
[0011] Further, the bottom surface of the lowest goods storage channel in the cabinet is provided with a theftproof device for preventing the goods from being stolen.
[0012] Further, the theftproof device comprises a theftproof cylinder fixedly installed in the cabinet and a theftproof plate fixedly installed on the output end of the theftproof cylinder, the output end of the theftproof cylinder faces the falling space, and the theftproof cylinder is installed in the cabinet in a transverse direction.
[0013] By adopting the above technical scheme, although the theftproof door and the through opening are arranged to enable the vending machine to have the anti-theft function without affecting the user to take out the goods, some thieves control the control device to select a plurality of goods in the uppermost goods storage channel to make the goods receiving box stay at the upper end of the falling space for a long time, then use one hand to press against the theftproof door to make the theftproof door not completely block the falling space, and then use a wire to hook the goods at the lower end to fall down. The arrangement of the theftproof device solves this technical problem. When the goods receiving box is lifted, the control device starts the theftproof cylinder, the output end of the theftproof cylinder is extended, and the theftproof plate blocks the communication between the falling space and the discharge port. In this way, the thief can be prevented from stealing the goods in the lowest goods storage channel after the goods receiving box is lifted, and the anti-theft effect of the vending machine is improved.
[0014] Further, the control device is provided with a refrigeration device behind the control device for cooling the cabinet, and the refrigeration device, the main body and the control device form a cube.
[0015] By adopting the above technical scheme, the refrigeration device is arranged behind the control device, and the refrigeration device, the main body and the control device form a cube, so that the vending machine is more beautiful and tidy.
[0016] Further, the cabinet is provided with a universal self-locking wheel at the bottom surface of the cabinet.
[0017] Further, the refrigeration device is provided with a ventilation space below the refrigeration device, and the bottom surface of the refrigeration device is communicated with the ventilation space.
[0018] In summary, the present application has at least one of the following beneficial technical effects:
[0019] 1. By arranging the lifting device, when a user selects a product in a certain product storage channel through the control device, the control device controls the driving motor to rotate to drive the driving belt to rotate around the driving motor, so that the product receiving box is lifted to below the product storage channel, and then the control device controls the transportation device to start to transport the product in the product storage channel out of the product storage channel, so that the product falls into the product receiving box. The control device controls the driving motor to reverse, so that the product receiving box is lowered to the product outlet, and the user takes the product from the product receiving box. In this way, the product will not fall from the product storage channel and hit the inner wall of the cabinet to rebound into other product storage channels, so that the user cannot take the selected product. This makes the user use the vending machine more conveniently.
[0020] 2. By arranging the anti-theft device, when the material receiving box is lifted, the control device starts the anti-theft cylinder, the output end of the anti-theft cylinder is extended, and the anti-theft plate blocks the communication between the falling space and the material outlet. In this way, when the material receiving box is lifted, the thief cannot steal the product in the lowest product storage channel, and the anti-theft effect of the vending machine is improved.
