Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vending machine technology, and in particular to a display screen mounting assembly for vending machines. Background Technology
[0002] Vending machines are intelligent devices that sell goods through automation without human intervention. They support multiple payment methods (such as coins, QR codes, and cards) and can provide retail services 24 hours a day, often referred to as "mini supermarkets."
[0003] As vending machines on campus mainly supply different types of milk, they are known in the industry as "milk vending machines" or "campus milk machines." They mainly use cold chain transportation and pasteurization technology, combined with a constant temperature refrigeration system (2-6℃), to ensure that the milk is fresh from the farm to the terminal. Students can also complete the pickup within 3 seconds after scanning a code / swiping a card / NFC payment, without having to wait in line.
[0004] However, conventional vending machines for selling milk on campus cannot accommodate all students. For example, high school students, who are already of adult height, can select the milk they need by touching the display screen. However, for middle school or elementary school students, using a display screen of the same height would make it difficult for them to purchase milk, which is extremely inconvenient. Utility Model Content
[0005] In view of this, in order to solve the problem that existing school milk vending machines cannot accommodate the different heights of students at different stages, making it inconvenient for students to buy milk, this utility model proposes a display screen mounting component for vending machines.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0007] A display screen mounting assembly for a vending machine includes a mounting panel connected to the vending machine, the mounting panel having a display screen slot, a goods display screen mounted on the display screen slot, and the horizontal height of the goods display screen being adjustable up and down within the display screen slot.
[0008] As a further improvement to the above technical solution:
[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, a display screen fixing plate is provided on the long slot of the display screen, and a display screen adapter slot is provided on the display screen fixing plate.
[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the display mounting plate has various display adapter slots with different horizontal heights.
[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the height and width of the display screen fixing plate are both greater than the height and width of the display screen long slot.
[0012] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the width of the cargo display screen is greater than the width of the display screen slot, and the length of the cargo display screen is less than the length of the display screen slot.
[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the cargo display screen is connected to the mounting panel via a display screen mounting frame.
[0014] As a preferred embodiment of the above technical solution, the installation panel is provided with a barcode scanner, a coin deposit and change device, and a keyhole.
[0015] Compared with existing technologies, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0016] 1. This utility model modifies the original display mounting panel with a long slot, thereby allowing the horizontal height of the display screen to be adjusted during installation. Furthermore, during on-site placement, the height can be adjusted according to the average height of students in the corresponding school, and secured with appropriate fasteners (bolts or self-tapping screws). This facilitates the convenience of different students purchasing milk through the school's milk vending machine, and also allows for standardized production in the factory, eliminating the need to manufacture mounting panels of various specifications, improving the adaptability of the school's milk vending machine, and reducing the factory's inventory pressure due to multiple specifications.
[0017] 2. This utility model also includes a corresponding display screen fixing plate designed on the long slot of the display screen. Its main function is to further stabilize the display screen and prevent it from falling off. Secondly, it can cover the remaining space in the long slot of the display screen after the display screen is installed. At the same time, corresponding text can be drawn on its surface to remind or help students understand the usage rules, or to draw patterns to increase aesthetics. Attached Figure Description

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.
[0023] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise stated, "a plurality of" means two or more; the terms "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "inner," "outer," "front end," "rear end," "head," "tail," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model. In addition, the terms "first," "second," "third," etc., are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0024] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connected" and "linked" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
[0025] This technical solution is attached. Figure 1 With appendix Figure 2 As shown, the main body of this technical solution is the mounting panel 1 installed on the campus milk vending machine, which consists of an attached panel. Figure 1 It can be seen that the installation panel 1 is equipped with a barcode scanner 7, a money dispensing and change device 8 and a keyhole 9, which is the same as a regular vending machine. It is mainly to facilitate students to pay the corresponding amount for purchasing milk. The keyhole 9 is mainly for convenient maintenance and periodic storage and retrieval of funds.
[0026] The main technical points of this technical solution are as follows: Figure 2 With appendix Figure 3 As shown, a long slot 2 for the display screen is provided on the mounting panel 1. The cargo display screen 3 is installed in the long slot 2. The width of the cargo display screen 3 is greater than the width of the long slot 2, and the length of the cargo display screen 3 is less than the length of the long slot 2. Thus, the left and right sides of the cargo display screen 3 cover the inside of the long slot 2. The cargo display screen 3 can be adjusted vertically for installation.
[0027] For elementary school students, the display screen 3 can be installed at the bottom of the display slot 2. For junior high school students, it can be installed in the middle of the display slot 2. For senior high school students, it can be placed at the top. Thus, three identical machines can be used to meet the needs of students of different age groups, eliminating the need to produce three different specifications. This approach reduces the factory's inventory pressure because multiple machines are prepared in advance during production, but the sales performance of each machine varies. For example, if the milk machines for elementary and senior high school students sell well, it may lead to an accumulation of milk machines for junior high school students in the inventory. With this solution, the installation height can be adjusted on-site according to the sales location, avoiding the problem of excessive inventory due to unsold goods.
[0028] Since there will be a large gap after the cargo display screen 3 is installed in the long slot 2 of the display screen, a display screen fixing plate 4 is also installed on the long slot of the display screen. In order to cover the gap after the cargo display screen 3 is installed, the height and width of the display screen fixing plate 4 are greater than the height and width of the long slot 2 of the display screen.
[0029] Similarly, in order to cover the gaps, there is also a display screen adapter slot 5 on the display screen mounting plate 4, the length and width of which match the cargo display screen 3. Since the height of the cargo display screen 3 will be different during the installation process, the display screen mounting plate 4 needs to be prepared with display screen adapter slots 5 of different horizontal heights. Compared with making multiple specifications for the entire mounting panel 1, making multiple specifications for the display screen mounting plate 4 is much lower in terms of inventory pressure and production cost. In order to further reduce the difficulty of production, the display screen mounting plate 4 with the corresponding horizontal height of the display screen adapter slot 5 can be made according to the average height of students at different stages. Therefore, only three different specifications of display screen mounting plates 4 need to be made.
[0030] In addition to the display adapter slot 5, corresponding patterns can be printed on the display fixing plate 4 to achieve an aesthetic effect. Similarly, corresponding instructions can be added to help students understand how to use it. The display fixing plate 4, through the display mounting frame 6, limits and stabilizes the cargo display screen 3, thus achieving a stable effect and preventing the cargo display screen 3 from falling off.
[0031] All the above components are connected to the mounting panel 1 using fasteners such as bolts, nuts, or automatic screws for secure installation.
[0032] The above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model, but the scope of protection of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any equivalent substitutions or modifications made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technology disclosed in this utility model, based on the technical solution and inventive concept of this utility model, should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
