Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of vending equipment technology, and more particularly to a sheet-like material dispensing structure and vending equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Individually packaged sheet items such as tissues, wet wipes, lottery tickets, and face masks require vending machines for sale. These machines are not limited by time or location and can be placed in public places such as shopping malls, subways, squares, and tourist attractions.

[0003] The vending machine includes a main body and a mechanism inside the main body. The dispensing structure, as the main part of the mechanism, is responsible for dispensing sheet-like items. However, during the dispensing process (i.e., the delivery process), the dispensing structure of the mechanism is prone to the phenomenon of sheet-like items being continuously dispensed and getting stuck at the vending slot. Utility Model Content

[0004] The first objective of this application is to provide a sheet-like material dispensing structure, which aims to solve the technical problem that sheet-like materials are easily stuck at the dispensing slot during the dispensing process of vending machines.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the solution provided in this application is as follows:

[0006] A sheet-like material dispensing structure is applied to a vending machine, the vending machine having a vending slot, the sheet-like material dispensing structure comprising:

[0007] A first driving structure is used to convey a sheet-like object to move along a first direction;

[0008] A second driving structure is located between the first driving structure and the vending machine. The second driving structure is used to receive the sheet material conveyed by the first driving structure and to move the sheet material along the first direction to the vending machine.

[0009] The first drive structure is also used to stop conveying the sheet when the second drive structure is conveying the sheet.

[0010] A second objective of this application is to provide a vending machine, the vending machine comprising:

[0011] The machine body is equipped with a vending machine;

[0012] The movement is housed within the body, and includes a housing and the aforementioned sheet material delivery structure. Both the first drive structure and the second drive structure are mounted on the housing.

[0013] The sheet delivery structure provided in this application has the following beneficial effects:

[0014] The sheet material dispensing structure is used in the mechanism of vending machines. It consists of a first drive structure and a second drive structure. The first drive structure can convey the sheet material along a first direction, for example, to a position where the second drive structure can receive the sheet material. Then, the second drive structure conveys the sheet material along the first direction to the vending slot. While the second drive structure is conveying the sheet material, the first drive structure stops conveying the sheet material. This not only completes one dispensing operation but also avoids the phenomenon of sheet materials continuously moving forward and getting stuck at the vending slot due to only one drive structure conveying the sheet material. It also avoids the phenomenon of multiple sheet materials getting stuck between the first and second drive structures due to the first drive structure continuously dispensing sheet materials but the second drive structure not receiving them in time. Thus, the first and second drive structures can smoothly complete the dispensing process. Attached Figure Description

[0035] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, this application embodiment provides a sheet-like material dispensing structure 100 and a vending device 1. The vending device 1 can be a vending machine used to sell various individually packaged sheet-like materials 2. The sheet-like materials 2 can be individually packaged sheet-like products such as tissues, wet wipes, lottery tickets, and red envelopes. The vending device 1 includes a mechanism 1a and a body 1b. The body 1b is provided with a vending port 1c. The mechanism 1a is housed inside the body 1b. The mechanism 1a includes a machine compartment 200 and the sheet-like material dispensing structure 100 described in the first or second set of embodiments below. The sheet-like material dispensing structure 100 is installed on the machine compartment 200.

[0036] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 To be continued Figure 7 This application provides a detailed description of some embodiments. Unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.

[0037] First set of embodiments:

[0038] The sheet material delivery structure 100 provided in this embodiment can be referred to. Figures 1 to 4 .

[0039] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the sheet material delivery structure 100 provided in this embodiment includes a first driving structure 10 and a second driving structure 20. Both the first driving structure 10 and the second driving structure 20 are installed on the machine compartment 200. The first driving structure 10 is used to convey the sheet material 2 to move along a first direction, which is the direction in which the sheet material 2 is delivered. The second driving structure 20 is located between the first driving structure 10 and the vending slot 1c. The second driving structure 20 is used to receive the sheet material 2 conveyed by the first driving structure 10 and convey the sheet material 2 to move along the first direction to the vending slot 1c. The first driving structure 10 is also used to stop conveying the sheet material 2 when the second driving structure 20 conveys the sheet material 2.

[0040] In the sheet material delivery structure 100 of this embodiment, the first driving structure 10 can convey the sheet material 2 to move along a first direction, for example, to a position where the second driving structure 20 can receive the sheet material 2. Then, the second driving structure 20 conveys the sheet material 2 along the first direction to the sales slot 1c. When the second driving structure 20 conveys the sheet material 2, the first driving structure 10 stops conveying the sheet material 2. This can complete one delivery and avoid the phenomenon that the sheet material 2 is stuck at the sales slot 1c due to the continuous forward movement of the sheet material 2 caused by the first driving structure 10 continuously delivering the sheet material 2 but the second driving structure 20 not receiving it in time. This allows the first driving structure 10 and the second driving structure 20 to complete the delivery smoothly.

[0041] When the sheet 2 is located at the vending slot 1c, the sheet 2 can pass through the vending slot 1c so that part of the sheet 2 is inside the machine body 1b and the other part is exposed outside the machine body 1b, making it convenient for the user to take away the sheet 2.

[0042] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment, the first driving structure 10 is also used to stop conveying the sheet 2 when it moves along the first direction to a set position. The second driving structure 20 is used to receive the sheet 2 conveyed to the set position by the first driving structure 10. This can prevent the first driving structure 10 from continuously conveying the sheet 2, thereby avoiding the phenomenon that the sheet 2 will be stuck at the vending slot 1c due to the sheet 2 being continuously moved forward by only using one driving structure. It can also avoid the phenomenon that multiple sheets 2 will be stuck between the first driving structure 10 and the second driving structure 20 because the first driving structure 10 continuously sends out the sheet 2 but the second driving structure 20 does not receive it in time.

[0043] Furthermore, the first drive structure 10 is used to move a single sheet 2 along a first direction to a set position, and to stop moving the sheet 2 when the single sheet 2 reaches the set position. Figure 3 Specifically, a paging mechanism 30 can be provided between the first drive structure 10 and the second drive structure 20. The paging mechanism 30 is rotatably connected to the housing 200. In the thickness direction of the sheet 2, the distance between the paging mechanism 30 and the housing 200 is greater than the thickness of one sheet 2 and less than the thickness of two sheets 2. The paging mechanism 30 ensures that the first drive structure 10 conveys only one sheet 2 at a time. It should be noted that the sheet 2 conveyed by the first drive structure 10 is the bottom sheet 2 among multiple stacked sheets 2.

[0044] In practical applications, the first drive structure 10 first sends a single sheet 2 to a set position, and then the second drive structure 20 receives the single sheet 2 and sends the sheet 2 to the vending port 1c to complete one shipment. During this process, the first drive structure 10 stops sending the sheet 2 when it reaches the set position, thus avoiding the continuous transmission of the sheet 2 by the first drive structure 10. This prevents the phenomenon of multiple sheets 2 piling up between the first drive structure 10 and the second drive structure 20 due to the first drive structure 10 continuously sending out sheets 2 but the second drive structure 20 not receiving them in time. This avoids the phenomenon of the sheet 2 getting stuck between the first drive structure 10 and the second drive structure 20, so that the first drive structure 10 and the second drive structure 20 can complete the shipment smoothly, improving the shipment stability and saving shipment time.

[0045] The set position can be set according to actual needs, and can realize the position where the second drive structure 20 receives the sheet 2, such as the junction of the first drive structure 10 and the second drive structure 20.

[0046] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the first drive structure 10 includes a first drive member 11, a first transmission assembly 12, and a transmission wheel set 13. The first drive member 11 is connected to the transmission wheel set 13 through the first transmission assembly 12. The transmission wheel set 13 rotates under the drive of the first transmission assembly 12 to convey the sheet 2 to move along the first direction to a set position. The first drive member 11 is used to stop driving the first transmission assembly 12 when the sheet 2 reaches the set position.

[0047] In this embodiment, when the first drive structure 10 conveys the sheet 2 to the set position, the first drive member 11 stops driving the first transmission assembly 12, thereby stopping the drive of the transmission wheel set 13. As a result, the first drive structure 10 will not continue to convey the sheet 2 in the storage area 201, thus avoiding the phenomenon that the sheet 2 is continuously sent out by the first drive structure 10 and gets stuck between the first drive structure 10 and the second drive structure 20.

[0048] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the first transmission assembly 12 includes a first output gear 121 and a first reduction gear 122. The first driving member 11 drives the first output gear 121 to rotate. The first output gear 121 and the first reduction gear 122 mesh to drive the first reduction gear 122 to rotate. The first reduction gear 122 drives the transmission wheel assembly 13 to rotate, thereby the transmission wheel assembly 13 conveys the sheet 2.

[0049] Furthermore, the transmission wheel assembly 13 includes a rotating shaft 131 and a transmission roller 132. The rotating shaft 131 is located at the rotation center of the transmission roller 132. The first transmission assembly 12 is connected to the rotating shaft 131 to drive the rotating shaft 131 to rotate. The transmission roller 132 is mounted on the rotating shaft 131 to follow the rotation of the rotating shaft 131, thereby the transmission roller 132 conveys the sheet 2.

[0050] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the second drive structure 20 includes a second drive member 21, a first conveyor wheel assembly 22, a second conveyor wheel assembly 23, and a second transmission assembly 24. The first conveyor wheel assembly 22 and the second conveyor wheel assembly 23 are arranged vertically at intervals, and a clamping space 25 is formed between the first conveyor wheel assembly 22 and the second conveyor wheel assembly 23. The set position is located in the clamping space 25. The second drive member 21 is connected to the first conveyor wheel assembly 22 and the second conveyor wheel assembly 23 respectively through the second transmission assembly 24, so as to transmit the driving force of the second drive member 21 to the first conveyor wheel assembly 22 and the second conveyor wheel assembly 23 respectively. Thus, under the drive of the second transmission assembly 24, the first conveyor wheel assembly 22 and the second conveyor wheel assembly 23 rotate respectively. The first conveyor wheel assembly 22 is used to rub the upper surface of the sheet 2 when rotating, and the second conveyor wheel assembly 23 is used to rub the bottom surface of the sheet 2 when rotating, so that the sheet 2 moves to the vending slot 1c along the first direction.

[0051] In practical applications, the second transmission component 24 can drive the first conveyor wheel assembly 22 to rotate in the first clockwise direction (e.g., counterclockwise) and the second conveyor wheel assembly 23 to rotate in the second clockwise direction (e.g., clockwise) under the action of the second drive component 21, so as to deliver the sheet 2 clamped between the first conveyor wheel assembly 22 and the second conveyor wheel assembly 23 in the first direction. Moreover, when the first conveyor wheel assembly 22 and the second conveyor wheel assembly 23 cooperate to deliver the sheet 2 to the sales outlet 1c, the sheet 2 is still clamped.

[0052] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the first conveyor wheel assembly 22 includes a first shaft 221 and a first roller 222, and the second conveyor wheel assembly 23 includes a second shaft 231 and a second roller 232. In a first direction, the first shaft 221 and the second shaft 231 are staggered, so that the first roller 222 and the second roller 232 are vertically staggered, forming a clamping space 25 between the first roller 222 and the second roller 232. The second drive member 21 is connected to the second transmission assembly 24 for transmission. The first rotating shaft 221 and the second rotating shaft 231 are respectively driven to rotate; the first roller 222 is mounted on the first rotating shaft 221 and rotates with the first rotating shaft 221 to rub the upper surface of the sheet 2; the second roller 232 is mounted on the second rotating shaft 231 and rotates with the second rotating shaft 231 to rub the bottom surface of the sheet 2, so that the sheet 2 can move forward to the sales outlet 1c in the first direction under the action of the first roller 222 and the second roller 232.

[0053] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the second transmission assembly 24 includes a transmission shaft 241, a first transmission wheel set 242, and a second transmission wheel set 243. The second driving member 21 drives the first transmission wheel set 242 to rotate. The second transmission wheel set 243 is connected to the first transmission wheel set 242 via the transmission shaft 241 to rotate under the drive of the transmission shaft 241. The second transmission wheel set 243 is connected to the first conveyor wheel set 22 and the second conveyor wheel set 23 respectively.

[0054] In this embodiment, the power of the second driving member 21 is transmitted sequentially to the second transmission wheel group 243 via the first transmission wheel group 242 and the transmission shaft 241, and then transmitted by the second transmission wheel group 243 to the first conveyor wheel group 22 and the second conveyor wheel group 23 respectively, so as to drive the first conveyor wheel group 22 and the second conveyor wheel group 23 to rotate respectively.

[0055] like Figures 2 to 4As shown, in one embodiment, the first driving member 11 and the second driving member 21 are respectively disposed on both sides of the housing 200 and are offset along the first direction; in the axial direction of the transmission shaft 241, the first transmission wheel set 242 and the second transmission wheel set 243 are spaced apart. The first transmission wheel set 242 includes a second output gear 2421 and a second reduction gear 2422. The second driving member 21 drives the second output gear 2421 to rotate. The second reduction gear 2422 is mounted on the transmission shaft 241 and meshes with the second output gear 2421. Under the action of the second output gear 2421, the second reduction gear 2422 drives the transmission shaft 241 to rotate. The second reduction gear 2422 can increase the torque to increase the power transmitted to the transmission shaft 241 and the second transmission wheel set 243, thereby increasing the force driving the first conveyor wheel set 22 and the second conveyor wheel set 23 to rotate, thus realizing the rotation of the first conveyor wheel set 22 and the second conveyor wheel set 23 respectively.

[0056] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the second transmission wheel assembly 243 includes a first transmission wheel 2431, a second transmission wheel 2432, a third transmission wheel 2433, and a first annular transmission member 2434. The first transmission wheel 2431 is mounted on the transmission shaft 241 to rotate with the transmission shaft 241. The first transmission wheel 2431 includes a first part 24311 and a second part 24312, which are connected sequentially in the axial direction of the transmission shaft 241. The outer peripheral surface of the first part 24311 and the outer peripheral surface of the second transmission wheel 2432 are both provided with external teeth so that the second transmission wheel 2432 meshes with the first part 24311, thereby causing the second transmission wheel 2432 to rotate under the drive of the first part 24311. The second transmission wheel 2432 is drively connected to the second conveyor wheel assembly 23. Under the action of the first part 24311, the second transmission wheel 2432 rotates. The driving wheel 2432 drives the second conveying wheel assembly 23 to rotate. Specifically, the second driving wheel 2432 is driven to the second rotating shaft 231, and the second driving wheel 2432 drives the second rotating shaft 231 to rotate under the transmission action of the first part 24311, thereby driving the second roller 232 to rotate. The third driving wheel 2433 is driven to the first conveying wheel assembly 22. The first annular transmission member 2434 is wound around the third driving wheel 2433 and the second part 24312, so that under the action of the first annular transmission member 2434, the third driving wheel 2433 drives the first conveying wheel assembly 22 to rotate. Specifically, the third driving wheel 2433 is driven to the first rotating shaft 221, so that under the transmission action of the second part 24312, the first annular transmission member 2434 drives the third driving wheel 2433 to rotate, thereby driving the first rotating shaft 221 to rotate, and then driving the first roller 222 to rotate.

[0057] Furthermore, the second driving member 21, the first transmission wheel set 242, and the second transmission wheel set 243 are arranged on the same side. For example, the first transmission wheel 2431 is a compound gear, the second transmission wheel 2432 is a gear, the third transmission wheel 2433 is a synchronous pulley, and the first annular transmission member 2434 is a synchronous belt. The second transmission wheel set 243 also includes a tensioning wheel 2435, which is rotatably mounted on the housing 200. The outer circumferential surface of the tensioning wheel 2435 abuts against the first annular transmission member 2434 to tension the first annular transmission member 2434.

[0058] Combination Figure 4 In another embodiment, the second transmission wheel assembly 243 includes a first transmission gear (not shown), a second transmission gear (not shown), a fourth transmission wheel (not shown), a fifth transmission wheel (not shown), and a second annular transmission member (not shown). The fourth and fifth transmission wheels can both be synchronous pulleys, and the second annular transmission member can be a synchronous belt. The first transmission gear is mounted on one end of the transmission shaft 241 to rotate with the transmission shaft 241. The second transmission gear is driven by the second conveyor wheel assembly 23, meshing with the first transmission gear so that, under the action of the first transmission gear, the second transmission gear drives the second conveyor wheel assembly 23 to rotate. Specifically, the second transmission gear is driven by the second conveyor wheel assembly 23. The shaft 231 is located away from one end of a transmission wheel assembly 242, so that under the action of the first transmission gear, the second transmission gear drives the second rotating shaft 231 to rotate; the fourth transmission wheel is installed at the other end of the transmission shaft 241 to rotate with the transmission shaft 241, and the fourth transmission wheel is arranged on the same side as the second driving member 21; furthermore, the fifth transmission wheel is driven to the first conveying sub-wheel assembly 22, and the second annular transmission member is wound around the fourth transmission wheel and the fifth transmission wheel, so that under the action of the second annular transmission member, the fifth transmission wheel drives the first conveying sub-wheel assembly 22 to rotate. Specifically, the fifth transmission wheel is driven to the first rotating shaft 221, so that under the action of the second annular transmission member, the fifth transmission wheel drives the first rotating shaft 221 to rotate.

[0059] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the cabin 200 is provided with a storage area 201, which is located above the first drive structure 10. The storage area 201 is used to place multiple stacked sheet-like objects 2, combined with... Figure 5The sheet material delivery structure 100 also includes a detection element 40 and a control board 50. The detection element 40 can be a sensor, such as a reflective sensor, or a camera. The control board 50 is mounted on the housing 200. The first drive structure 10 and the second drive structure 20 are both electrically connected to the control board 50. Specifically, the first drive element 11 and the second drive element 21 are both electrically connected to the control board 50. The detection element 40 is mounted on the control board. Specifically, in some embodiments, the detection element 40 is mounted on the bottom surface of the control board 50, located above the clamping space 25. In other embodiments, the detection element 40 may not be mounted on the control board. For example, the detection element 40 is mounted on the housing 200 and located below the clamping space 25. The detection element 40 is electrically connected to the control board.

[0060] Furthermore, when the detection element 40 detects that the sheet 2 has moved to a set position along the first direction, the first drive structure 10 stops conveying the sheet 2, and the second drive structure 20 starts conveying the sheet 2 forward along the first direction to prevent the sheet 2 from being continuously sent out of the storage area 201. In specific applications, when the detection element 40 detects that the sheet 2 has moved to a set position along the first direction, for example, when the detection element 40 senses or captures that the sheet 2 has reached the clamping space 25 along the first direction, the control board 50 controls the first drive element 11 to stop rotating and also controls the second drive element 21 to rotate clockwise, so that the first conveyor wheel group 22 and the second conveyor wheel group 23 rotate in the first clockwise (e.g., counterclockwise) and the second clockwise (e.g., clockwise) directions respectively, so as to send the sheet 2 out along the first direction.

[0061] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in a specific embodiment, the transmission wheel set 13 of the first drive structure 10 is located below the storage area 201 and partially penetrates the bottom surface of the storage area 201. The transmission wheel set 13 is used to convey a single sheet 2 forward toward the vending slot 1c. Specifically, under the action of the paging mechanism 30, the transmission wheel set 13 conveys the bottommost sheet 2 among multiple stacked sheets 2.

[0062] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in one embodiment, the movement 1a also includes a counterweight wheel 300, which is used to press against the upper surface of the sheet 2 to keep the sheet 2 flat and prevent the sheet 2 from wrinkling.

[0063] Second set of embodiments:

[0064] The sheet material delivery structure 100 provided in this embodiment can be referred to. Figures 5 to 7 .

[0065] The main difference between this embodiment and the first set of embodiments lies in the different structures of the first transmission component 12 and the second transmission component 24, as detailed below:

[0066] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, in one embodiment, the first transmission component 12 of the first drive structure 10 includes a first coupling component 123. The first drive member 11 is connected to the transmission wheel group 13 through the first coupling component 123 to drive the transmission wheel group 13 to rotate, thereby the transmission wheel group 13 conveys the sheet 2.

[0067] like Figures 5 to 7 As shown, in one embodiment, the second transmission component 24 of the second drive structure 20 includes a second coupling component (not shown) and a gear set 244. The second coupling component can be a coupling. The second drive member 21 is driven to one end of the second rotating shaft 231 through the second coupling component to drive the second rotating shaft 231 to rotate. The other end of the second rotating shaft 231 is driven to the first rotating shaft 221 through the gear set 244 to drive the first rotating shaft 221 to rotate, thereby driving the first roller 222 to rotate.

[0068] Furthermore, the gear set 244 includes a first gear 2441, a second gear 2442, a third gear 2443, and a fourth gear 2444. The first gear 2441 is rotatably connected to the side of the housing 200 away from the second drive member 21.
