[0011] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0012] 1. This automatic beverage cup dispensing machine uses a third motor driven by a control controller to rotate a rotating wheel. The rotating wheel drives a driven wheel via a transmission belt, which in turn drives a conveyor belt to transport the tea bags at the top of the conveyor belt. The control controller also uses a telescopic rod to push a push plate against the outer wall of a baffle, causing the push plate to push the tea bags through the conveyor cylinder and onto the inner wall of the cup slot. This process enables the machine to dispense and reduce the workload of personnel.
[0013] 2. This automatic beverage cup dispensing machine utilizes the tea bags on the inner wall of the feeding cylinder to descend to the inner wall of the feeding hopper. A second motor drives a rotating plate to rotate, causing the area between the two rotating plates filled with auxiliary materials to rotate downwards. When the rotation reaches the bottom, a pressure sensor detects the weight of the tea bags. When the pressure sensor reaches the specified weight, it transmits a signal to the controller, and the tea bags are discharged downwards, thus improving the practicality of the equipment. By controlling the controller, a first motor drives a screw to rotate. The positive and negative threaded rods drive the limit plates to move closer to each other, limiting the conveyor belt conveying of tea bags at the top and preventing derailment.

[0022] In the above structure, by installing a cup-dispensing device 18 and a cup-lid-dispensing device 19, the cup-dispensing device 18 is used to place the beverage cup on the inner wall of the cup slot 2, so that the cup body moves and is conveyed on the inner wall of the machine body 1, and the cup-lid-dispensing device 19 is used to place the cup lid on the top of the cup body for sealing.
[0023] In a preferred embodiment, a controller 10 is fixedly installed on the outer wall of the support plate 14, and the controller 10 is electrically connected to the third motor 21.
[0024] In the above structure, the third motor 21 drives the rotating wheel 22 to rotate via the control controller 10. The rotating wheel 22 drives the driven wheel 26 to rotate via the transmission belt 15, so that the two rotating rods 6 drive the conveyor belt 7 to achieve transmission, thereby conveying the tea bag ingredients at the top of the conveyor belt 7.
[0025] In a preferred embodiment: a conveying cylinder 4 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the square plate 20, an electrical connection is formed between the controller 10 and the telescopic rod 8, and the outer wall of the push plate 16 and the baffle 5 are semi-arc-shaped.
[0026] In the above structure, by controlling the controller 10, the telescopic rod 8 is used to push the push plate 16 to fit against the outer wall of the baffle 5, so that the push plate 16 pushes the tea bag through the conveyor cylinder 4 to fall onto the inner wall of the cup slot 2, thereby enabling the equipment to distribute and discharge materials, reducing the workload of personnel.

[0033] Working Principle: The machine is equipped with a cup-dispensing device 18 and a cup-lid-dispensing device 19. The cup-dispensing device 18 places the beverage cups on the inner wall of the cup slot 2, allowing the cups to move and be conveyed within the machine body 1. The cup-lid-dispensing device 19 places the lids on top of the cups for sealing. Tea bags on the inner wall of the feeding cylinder 11 descend to the inner wall of the feeding bin 13. The second motor 12 drives the rotating plate 23 to rotate, causing the area between the two rotating plates 23 filled with auxiliary materials to rotate downwards. When the rotation reaches the bottom, the pressure sensor 24 detects the weight of the tea bags. When the pressure sensor 24 reaches the specified weight, it transmits a signal to the controller 10, causing the tea bags to be discharged downwards, thus improving the equipment's practicality. The controller 10 controls the first motor 9 to drive the screw... 17. Rotation is achieved, and the positive and negative threaded rods drive the limiting plates 25 to move closer to each other, thus limiting the conveying of tea bags at the top of the conveyor belt 7 and preventing derailment.
