Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cup dispenser technology, specifically a rotary cup dispenser. Background Technology

[0002] In the food and beverage industry, such as milk tea shops and coffee shops, office break rooms, and home kitchens, taking out cups is a frequent daily activity. To improve the convenience of taking out cups, various cup dispensers have emerged.

[0003] However, in actual use, when a single cup is removed from the dispenser, the friction or mutual support between adjacent cups can easily cause the remaining cups to lose their balance, resulting in tilting, skewing, or even misalignment. Tilted cups may block the dispensing channel, preventing subsequent cups from being removed smoothly. During peak hours in the catering industry, frequent sorting operations may also delay food service and reduce customer experience. For cups made of fragile materials such as glass, collisions or drops during tilting can also damage the cups, increasing operating costs and reducing the stability of cup storage.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0027] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the embodiments of this utility model will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0028] Please see Figure 1-4 As shown, this utility model is a rotary cup dispenser, comprising:

[0029] Cup dispenser body 11;

[0030] The extension component includes an inner ring 21, a rotating ring 22, a first support ring 23, an internal thread 24, an external thread 25, and a second support ring 26. The inner ring 21 is disposed on the inner surface of the cup dispenser body 11. The rotating ring 22 is rotatably connected to the middle of the inner surface of the inner ring 21. The first support ring 23 is disposed on the inner wall of the rotating ring 22. The internal thread 24 is disposed on the inner wall of the first support ring 23. The second support ring 26 is located on the inner surface of the first support ring 23. The external thread 25 is disposed on the outer wall of the second support ring 26. The internal thread 24 and the external thread 25 are threadedly connected.

[0031] The servo motor 27 is started to drive the inner ring 21 and the rotating ring 22 to rotate, which drives the first support ring 23 to rotate synchronously. The internal thread 24 and the external thread 25 are used to realize the up and down movement of the second support ring 26. When it is necessary to take the cup, the second support ring 26 moves downward so that the cup body 13 is exposed at the bottom of the cup dispenser body 11. The remaining cup body 13 is still stably placed on the inner surface of the second support ring 26, and the topmost cup body 13 is suspended at the top of the second support ring 26. This can completely avoid the imbalance, tilting, skewing or stacking misalignment of the remaining cups caused by mutual interference during the traditional cup taking process. The cup body 13 is exposed in an orderly manner at the bottom of the cup dispenser. The user does not need to go deep into the cup dispenser to find the cup, which ensures the stability of the cup body 13.

[0032] A servo motor 27 is fixedly connected to one end of the outer surface of the cup dispenser body 11.

[0033] The two ends of the bottom of the cup dispenser body 11 are fixedly connected to a reduction motor 31. A turntable 32 is provided at the bottom of the reduction motor 31, and a lead screw 33 is rotatably connected between the two turntables 32.

[0034] The outer surface of the lead screw 33 is threaded with a nut ring 36, a crossbar 34 is fixedly connected to one side of the nut ring 36, and a clamping ring 35 is fixedly connected to one side of the crossbar 34.

[0035] When the geared motor 31 starts, the turntable 32 and the lead screw 33 rotate. The nut ring 36 can move up and down outside the lead screw 33 by rotating the lead screw 33, so that the clamping ring 35 is clamped on both sides of the outer surface of the cup body 13. The shape of the clamping ring 35 matches the shape of the cup body 13. There is no need for manual handling. The body is moved to the lower part by clamping and moving.

[0036] A transparent cover 12 is embedded on the top of the cup dispenser body 11, and a cup body 13 is embedded on the inner surface of the cup dispenser body 11.

[0037] Multiple cups 13 can be placed inside the cup dispenser body 11, and a transparent cover 12 can be used to surround the outside of the cups 13 to prevent external dust from adhering to the outer surface of the cups 13.

[0038] Working principle:

[0039] First, multiple cups 13 are stacked sequentially on the inner surface of the second support ring 26, with the edge of the topmost cup 13 suspended above the top of the second support ring 26. A transparent cover 12 is then embedded in the upper part of the outer surface of the cup dispenser body 11. When a cup 13 needs to be removed, the servo motor 27 is activated, transmitting power to the inner ring 21, causing the rotating ring 22 inside the inner ring 21 to rotate. Since the first support ring 23 is connected to the rotating ring 22, the rotation of the rotating ring 22 will cause the first support ring 23 to rotate synchronously. The inner surface of the first support ring 23 has an internal thread 24, and the outer surface of the second support ring 26 has an external thread 25; the two mesh with each other. The rotation of the first support ring 23 is converted into the vertical linear motion of the second support ring 26. At this time, the second support ring 26 is controlled to move downwards. As the second support ring 26 moves downwards, the cup 13, originally stored inside, gradually becomes visible at the bottom of the cup dispenser body 11. Then, the servo motor 27... When motor 27 stops working, support ring 26 remains in its current position. Then, geared motor 31 starts, and its output shaft drives turntable 32 to rotate. Lead screw 33 connected to turntable 32 rotates synchronously with turntable 32. Nut ring 36 is sleeved on lead screw 33 and connected to clamping ring 35. The rotation of lead screw 33 causes nut ring 36 to move up and down along the axial direction of lead screw 33. The shape of clamping ring 35 is adapted to the outer surface of cup body 13. When nut ring 36 drives clamping ring 35 to move up to the position corresponding to the exposed cup body 13, clamping ring 35 closes and clamps both sides of cup body 13. Then, geared motor 31 continues to drive lead screw 33 to rotate, causing nut ring 36 to drive clamping ring 35 and the clamped cup body 13 to move down until cup body 13 is separated from the bottom of cup dispenser body 11 and reaches a position that is easy to pick up. At this time, geared motor 31 stops, completing the process of taking out and transferring cup body 13.

[0040] This step completely avoids the imbalance, tilting, skewing or stacking misalignment of the remaining cups caused by mutual interference during the traditional cup retrieval process. At the same time, it achieves stable exposure and orderly removal of the cup body 13, effectively ensuring the stability of the remaining cup body 13 during the cup retrieval process.

[0041] Please see Figure 1-3 As shown, this embodiment, based on the above embodiment, further includes:

[0042] The fixing component includes a limiting frame 42 and a top block 43. The upper part of the outer surface of the support ring 26 is fixedly connected to the limiting frame 42. The limiting frame 42 is clamped and connected to the upper part of the outer surface of the cup body 13. The top block 43 is bonded to the top of the limiting frame 42.

[0043] When the uppermost cup 13 is suspended on the top of the support ring 26, the limiting frame 42 simultaneously clamps the upper part of the outer surface of the cup 13 to position the uppermost cup 13. The clamping force of the limiting frame 42 accurately positions the uppermost cup 13 to prevent it from shaking or shifting when stored.

[0044] The top of the support ring 26 is provided with an arc edge 41, and the top of the cup body 13 is suspended on the outer surface of the arc edge 41;

[0045] The uppermost cup body 13 will contact the arc edge 41. The arc structure of the arc edge 41 is adapted to the edge of the cup body 13, leaving convenient space for subsequent handling operations.

[0046] Working principle:

[0047] Multiple cups 13 are stacked sequentially on the inner surface of the second support ring 26. The edge of the topmost cup 13 is suspended from the top of the second support ring 26. At this time, the limiting frame 42 is simultaneously clamped on the upper part of the outer surface of the topmost cup 13. Meanwhile, the edge of the topmost cup 13 contacts the arc edge 41 provided on the cup dispenser body 11.

[0048] This step allows for convenient application of force in subsequent handling operations.
