Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of snack dispensing equipment technology, and in particular to a snack box dispenser. Background Technology

[0002] In modern life, snack dispensers are being used more and more widely. Whether in the home to meet the daily snack needs of family members, in the workplace to provide people with a convenient way to take snacks, or in some commercial scenarios such as convenience stores and cinemas to achieve efficient sales of snacks, snack dispensers play an important role.

[0003] Currently available snack dispensers on the market have many limitations in actual use. When snacks are dropped by a switch, they can easily get stuck inside. Moreover, most existing snack dispensers use a fixed-size box design, and their internal storage space is preset. They cannot flexibly adjust the size according to the actual quantity and volume of snacks or different user scenarios, making them inconvenient for users. Summary of the Invention

[0004] This utility model addresses the shortcomings of existing technologies by providing a snack box dispenser that enables the combination and splicing of box bodies to adjust the internal space of the box, while also ensuring stable dispensing of snacks.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A snack box dispenser includes a box body that can be assembled to adjust its height. The box body is provided with a pusher for pushing out snacks inside. The box body is provided with a receiving cavity for receiving snacks and a discharge port communicating with the receiving cavity. The pusher is used to push out the snacks in the receiving cavity from the discharge port.

[0007] Preferably, the box body includes a connecting box body and a base. The connecting box body is connected to the base. The connecting box body has several splicing sections on its upper surface. Each splicing section has a closure component connected to it. The closure component, splicing sections, and connecting box body are all equipped with connectors that link them together. The base provides stable support, the connecting box body serves as the basic load-bearing component, the splicing sections allow for flexible height adjustments, and the closure components seal and protect the internal snacks. The connectors ensure a tight connection between all components, achieving height adjustment while maintaining the overall stability of the dispenser structure.

[0008] Preferably, the connector includes a connecting frame and a connecting plate. The connecting frame has symmetrical grooves, and a deformable plate that can deform is provided in the groove. The deformable plate has a snap-fit ​​end that can snap into the connecting plate. The connector also includes a limiting edge. The connecting frame has a moving groove, and the limiting edge is located in the moving groove. The deformable characteristics of the deformable plate, combined with the design of the snap-fit ​​end and the snap-fit ​​groove of the connecting plate, can achieve a quick and firm connection.

[0009] Preferably, the limiting edges on the plurality of connectors are respectively provided on the connecting box, the splicing part and the closing part, and the connecting plates on the plurality of connectors are respectively provided on the connecting box, the splicing part and the closing part. The splicing part can be connected to the connecting box and the closing part through the connectors, and the multiple splicing parts are also connected to each other through the connectors when splicing.

[0010] Preferably, the connecting plate is provided with a snap-fit ​​groove that snaps into the snap-fit ​​end.

The base 12 provides stable support, the connecting box body 11 serves as the basic load-bearing component, the splicing sections 13 are used to flexibly increase the height, and the closure 15 serves to seal and protect the snacks inside. The connecting members 14 ensure that all components are tightly connected, achieving height adjustment while maintaining the overall structural stability of the dispenser.

[0036] The connector 14 includes a connecting frame 141 and a connecting plate 143. The connecting frame 141 has symmetrical grooves, and a deformable plate 1411 is provided in the groove. The deformable plate 1411 has a snap-fit ​​end 1413 that can snap into the connecting plate 143. The connector 14 also includes a limiting edge 142. The connecting frame 141 has a moving groove 1414, and the limiting edge 142 is located in the moving groove 1414. The deformable characteristics of the deformable plate 1411, combined with the design of the snap-fit ​​end 1413 and the snap-fit ​​groove 1431 of the connecting plate 143, can achieve a quick and firm connection.

[0037] Limiting edges 142 on multiple connectors 14 are respectively provided on the connecting box 11, splicing part 13 and closing part 15.

[0040] The connecting box 11 is provided with a movable groove 111. Inside the connecting box 11, there are two fixing blocks 112 and 113. The fixing blocks 113 are connected to the fixing blocks 112. The fixing blocks 113 are provided with a feeding hole 114. Both the fixing blocks 112 and 113 are provided with inclined surfaces that are inclined toward the feeding hole 114. The setting of the fixing blocks 112 and 113 not only enhances the stability of the internal structure of the connecting box 11, but also guides the snacks toward the feeding hole 114 through the inclined surfaces, so that the snacks can smoothly enter the pushing path.

[0041] The base 12 is provided with a second movable groove 121. The first movable groove 111 and the second movable groove 121 are combined to form a movable cavity. The pressing block 21 is located in the movable cavity. The connecting box 11 is provided with a first discharge groove 115 that communicates with the discharge hole 114. The base 12 is provided with a second discharge groove 123. The first discharge groove 115 and the second discharge groove 123 together form a discharge port. The movable cavity formed by the first movable groove 111 and the second movable groove 121 provides a complete and stable moving space for the pressing block 21, ensuring that the pressing block 21 will not deviate from the track during movement, and ensuring the consistency and accuracy of the pushing action. The discharge port formed by the first discharge groove 115 and the second discharge groove 123 is reasonably designed, allowing the snacks to be smoothly pushed from the connecting box 11 to the outside, and the discharge path is smooth.

[0042] The movable groove 111 on the fixed block 112 is provided with a limiting groove 1121, and the movable groove 21 on the base 12 is provided with a limiting groove 222. The pressing block 21 is provided with limiting ends 26 on both the upper and lower sides. The limiting ends 26 on the upper and lower sides of the pressing block 21 are respectively located in the limiting groove 1121 and the limiting groove 22. The cooperation of the limiting groove 1121, the limiting groove 22 and the limiting ends 26 further precisely limits the movement range of the pressing block 21, ensuring that the pressing block 21 can stay in the correct position during each pressing and resetting process.

[0043] The closure 15 includes a top frame 151 and a positioning frame 153. The positioning frame 153 is provided with an observation window 154. The outer edge of the positioning frame 153 is provided with an elastic element 155, which is connected to the positioning frame 153. The top frame 151 is provided with a disassembly groove 152, which facilitates the user to remove or install the positioning frame 153. The elastic element 155 can be made of rubber. The deformation of the rubber can press the positioning frame 153 into the top frame 151, so that the positioning frame 153 and the top frame 151 are connected together. It also facilitates the user to separate the positioning frame 153 from the top frame 151, thereby enhancing the sealing between the positioning frame 153 and the top frame 151.

[0044] The base 12 is located below and connected to the connecting box 11. The second movable groove 121 on the base 12 corresponds to the first movable groove 111 on the connecting box 11, together forming a movable cavity to provide space for the movement of the pressing block 21. The splicing part 13 is spliced ​​to the connecting box 11 through the connector 14. First, the splicing part 13 and the connecting box 11 are aligned vertically. Then, the connecting frame 141 on the connecting box 11 is moved upward. When the connecting frame 141 moves upward, the deformation plate 1411 will deform outward through the inclined surface. The snap-fit ​​end 1413 moves upward to align with the snap-fit ​​groove 1431 on the connecting plate 143. By utilizing the elastic deformation of the deformation plate 1411, the snap-fit ​​end 1413 is smoothly snapped into the snap-fit ​​groove 1431, realizing a stable connection between the splicing part 13 and the connecting box 11. Then, the sealing element is connected to the splicing part 13 in the above manner.

[0045] When the height of the box 1 needs to be increased, the deformation plate 1411 is bent outward by the extension end 1412 to deform it outward, so that the snap-fit ​​end 1413 can be moved out of the snap-fit ​​groove 1431. The connecting frame 141 is moved downward so that the snap-fit ​​end 1413 is away from the snap-fit ​​groove 1431, so that the closure 15 can be removed. Then, multiple splicing parts 13 of the required height are added to the splicing part 13. The multiple splicing parts 13 are connected together by the connector 14. Then the closure 15 is installed, so that the height of the box 1 can be increased.

[0046] When the user needs to remove the snack, they press the pressing block 21. The pressing block 21 moves within the movable cavity along the limiting groove 1121 and the limiting groove 22. Because the pressing block 21 has limiting ends 26 on its upper and lower sides, the stability of the pressing block 21 during movement is ensured, preventing it from shifting. The pressing block 21 drives the pushing end 22 to move. The moving hole 23 on the pushing end 22 cooperates with other components to push the snack in the receiving cavity from the dropping hole 114 to the discharge port and drop it out of the dispenser. When the user releases the pressing block 21, the spring 25 provides a restoring force, allowing the pressing block 21 and the pushing end 22 to return to their initial positions, ready for the next operation.

[0047] Users can observe the remaining amount of snacks in the cavity at any time through the observation window 154 of the positioning frame 153 on the closure 15. When it is found that the remaining amount of snacks is insufficient, the user can pinch the positioning frame 153 and pull it upward to separate the positioning frame 153 from the top frame 151, and open the top to replenish the snacks.

[0048] Those skilled in the art should understand that the embodiments of the present invention described above and shown in the accompanying drawings are merely examples and do not limit the present invention. The purpose of the present invention has been fully and effectively achieved. The functions and structural principles of the present invention have been shown and explained in the embodiments.
