When picking up food, the touch screen is manually operated to start the second motor 703, which causes the corresponding items to fall onto the feeding platform 704 for easy pickup by the customer.

[0089] Further optimizations to the plan include:

[0090] Layer 101 is placed inside the raw material container 1, and several dry ingredient packets are placed on layer 101.

[0091] The interlayer 101 can hold some sealed dry ingredient packets, which will not affect the state and taste of the dry ingredient packets during the heating process of the raw material container 1.

[0092] The plan has been further optimized, and the food pick-up points include:

[0093] The food retrieval compartment 15 is installed on the frame 17. The food retrieval compartment 15 is a box structure that is not completely closed. The electric gripper transfers the completed raw material meal box 1 into the food retrieval compartment 15.

[0094] The control panel 12 is mounted on the frame 17 and is located below the food retrieval port of the food retrieval compartment kit 15.

[0095] After the raw material meal box 1 is processed, it is transferred to the food retrieval compartment 15 by an electric gripper. Then, the customer manually places a plastic bag on the operating table 12, operates the touch screen to open the food retrieval compartment 15, and places the raw material meal box 1 inside the plastic bag. The door of the food retrieval compartment 15 is equipped with an electromagnetic spring lock. It opens automatically, and the customer opens the door to take the food. The door will then automatically close and relock under the action of the torsion spring and electromagnet.

[0096] Further optimization of the solution includes the following electric gripper:

[0097] The first linear motor 202 is mounted on the first linear guide rail 201;

[0098] The fixing rod 204 is vertically mounted on the first linear motor 202;

[0099] The first motor 205 is mounted on the fixing plate 206 at the bottom of the fixing rod 204;

[0100] Two sets of grippers 203 are slidably connected to the fixed plate 206 in a direction that moves closer or further away from each other.

[0101] The first connecting rod 207 is connected to two sets of second connecting rods 208. The middle end of the first connecting rod 207 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first motor 205. The first ends of the two sets of second connecting rods 208 are respectively hinged to the two ends of the first connecting rod 207, and the second ends of the two sets of second connecting rods 208 are respectively hinged to two sets of grippers 203.

[0102] After the first motor 205 is started, it drives the first connecting rod 207 to rotate. Through the two sets of second connecting rods 208, it drives the two sets of grippers 203 to move closer or further apart, thereby achieving gripping or releasing. Then, by starting the first linear motor 202, it drives the fixed rod 204, the two sets of grippers 203, and the gripped raw material container 1 to move.

[0103] Further optimizations to the plan include:

[0104] Insulation board 18, two sets of insulation boards 18 are set on both sides of the lunch box stacking tube 3 along the moving direction of the fixed rod 204, and are vertically slidably connected to the frame 17;

[0105] Electric push rods 6, two sets of electric push rods 6 are respectively installed between the two sets of insulation plates 18 and the frame 17, used to drive the insulation plates 18 to rise and fall on the top sides of the lunch box stacking cylinder 3.

[0106] The insulation plates 18 and the insulation layer are both for ensuring a good storage environment for the raw materials, but they do not affect the operation of the entire equipment. In the initial state, the electric gripper is located on the side of the food container stacking cylinder 3 near the electric ceramic furnace 11, and the two sets of insulation plates 18 are in the raised state. When the raw materials need to be processed, the insulation plate 18 on the side near the electric ceramic furnace 11 first descends. After the raw material food container 1 is transferred to the electric ceramic furnace 11 by the electric gripper, the insulation plate 18 rises. After the raw material food container 1 is processed, the two sets of insulation plates 18 descend simultaneously to facilitate the smooth movement of the electric gripper. That is, before the electric gripper needs to move, the two sets of insulation plates 18 or one set of insulation plates 18 are raised or lowered.

[0107] Overall, the preparation process of Mala Tang (a type of spicy hot pot) in this application is as follows:

[0108] When no orders are being placed, the door of the food retrieval compartment 15 remains closed to ensure proper refrigeration. When an order is placed, the insulation plate 18 closest to the electric ceramic stove 11 descends first, and the electric gripper picks up the top ingredient container 1. The tray 403 remains stationary. The electric gripper moves the ingredient container 1 onto the electric ceramic stove 11, after which the insulation plate 18 rises, the electric gripper is released, and the electric ceramic stove 11 begins heating. Simultaneously, broth is added to the ingredient container 1. During processing, the generated steam is exhausted through the exhaust fan 10. After processing, the electric ceramic stove 11 is turned off, and the electric gripper picks up the ingredient container 1 again. Both insulation plates 18 descend simultaneously, and the electric gripper transfers the ingredient container 1 to the retrieval area. The customer opens the door to retrieve the food, and the door automatically closes and locks itself under the action of a torsion spring and electromagnet, completing the entire order process. Then, the electric gripper and insulation plate 18 return to their initial state; the tray 403 rises to the height of one ingredient container 1, awaiting the next order.

[0109] The structure places the human-machine interface touchscreen and barcode scanner at the top, conforming to ergonomic height. The hot pot serving compartment, disposable eco-friendly bag self-service mechanism, and packaged side dish dispensing mechanism are arranged sequentially downwards, all fixedly connected to the frame 17. Customers scan the barcode, then take out an eco-friendly bag, place it on the front platform, and then remove the hot pot and place it inside the bag. At the bottom, customers can also take out complimentary or separately sold packaged side dishes, condiments, and tableware as needed. This makes the food easy to carry, increases the number of expandable accessories, and improves the customer's purchasing experience.
