Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of insulated box technology, specifically to an insulated box for automatic order fulfillment and self-pickup of takeout food. Background Technology

[0002] With the fast pace of life, food delivery has become the most convenient way for office workers to eat. Unlike white-collar workers or family members, factory workers cannot pick up their food delivery or boxed meals in time. If they use the existing food delivery lockers on the market, they do not have a heat preservation effect. If the food is left out for too long, it will get cold and affect the taste. At the same time, the enclosed space of the locker will also produce an unpleasant smell over time, which will affect the storage of subsequent food deliveries. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a takeaway self-pickup storage and insulated box for automatic order fulfillment. It can be placed in any position to keep takeaways that have not yet been picked up at a constant temperature. At the same time, the ventilation ducts on both sides can circulate the air inside the box in real time, resulting in good performance.

[0004] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides a takeaway self-pickup storage and insulated box for automatic order fulfillment, comprising a support frame, a box body mounted on the support frame, a box lid mounted on the box body, a cylinder mounted on the side of the support frame, the output end of the cylinder being connected to the box lid via a connecting plate, heating tubes being staggered at the bottom of the box body, and a placement plate mounted on the heating tubes; partitions are provided on both sides of the inside of the box body, and ventilation ducts and an air pump are provided on the outside of the box body corresponding to the space of the partitions.

[0005] Furthermore, thermometers are installed on both sides of the box cover, and a temperature probe penetrating the box body is installed on one side of each thermometer.

[0006] Furthermore, the bottom of the box is V-shaped, and a drain pipe is installed at the center.

[0007] Furthermore, it includes an inlet pump and an outlet pump. The inlet pump is connected to the internal heating pipe through an inlet pipe, and the outlet pump is connected to the internal heating pipe through an outlet pipe. The heating pipe has inlets on both sides and an outlet at the center.

[0008] Furthermore, valves are installed on both the inlet and outlet water pipes.

[0009] Furthermore, the housing is provided with fixed hooks at intervals for fixing and supporting the heating tube.

[0010] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: When using this device, the heating tube is filled with hot water as a heat preservation method. The food to be taken out can be placed inside after the lid is opened. The opening and closing operation of the lid is completed by using a cylinder to drive the connecting plate, which in turn moves the lid. In order to ensure that the internal air is not covered by the smell of food, the side air pump is activated, which drives the ventilation ducts on both sides to form a closed loop. Because the partition is set and works with the placement plate, it ensures that the circulating gas will not blow into the heating tube at the bottom and affect the internal temperature. At the same time, controlling the air pump can also control the internal circulation speed to prevent it from being too fast and blowing cold food. In summary, it can be placed in any position to preserve takeout that has not yet been taken out and keep its temperature constant. At the same time, the ventilation ducts on both sides can circulate the air inside the box in real time, resulting in good performance. Attached Figure Description
