Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of vending machine technology, specifically relating to a token-based single-journey ticket vending machine. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the most common ticket vending machine uses a "tracked ticket storage box + rotary ticket dispensing" model. The tracked ticket storage box is generally used for coin change. However, the material, weight, and other parameters of the token-based single-journey tickets (i.e., "substitute coins") used in subways are quite different from coins. Therefore, using a vending machine with a "tracked ticket storage box" to issue "token-based single-journey tickets" will have many problems, such as easily issuing "multiple tickets" or tickets not being properly dispensed. In particular, the "rotary ticket dispensing" of traditional vending machines is prone to problems such as ticket jamming and issuing "invalid tickets" within the rotary table and at its junction.

[0003] Currently, there is a lack of a new, reliable, and durable token-based single-journey ticket vending machine to reliably issue token-based single-journey tickets.

[0004] Therefore, a new technology is needed to address the lack of a new, reliable, and durable token-based one-way ticket vending machine in existing technologies. Utility Model Content

[0006] The present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A token-based one-way ticket vending machine includes a ticket storage box, a ticket dispensing device, a reader / writer identification device, and a coin distribution channel assembly. The ticket storage box is used to store substitute coins. The ticket storage box is connected to the ticket dispensing device. The ticket dispensing device includes a coin dispensing turntable, the coin dispensing slot of which is connected to the ticket storage box and the ticket dispensing slot. The coin dispensing turntable is used to transport substitute coins from the ticket storage box to the ticket dispensing slot. The reader / writer identification device is located at the coin dispensing position after the ticket dispensing slot and is used to identify or read / write substitute coins from the ticket dispensing slot. The coin distribution channel assembly is located at the coin dispensing position after the reader / writer identification device and is used to output substitute coins from the reader / writer identification device through a target channel.

[0008] Furthermore, the ticket dispensing device also includes a base, a stop block, and a ejection mechanism; the stop block and the ejection mechanism are respectively disposed at a set position on the base; the stop block is used to cooperate with the coin dispensing slot to convey the substitute coin to the ticket dispensing slot; the ejection mechanism is used to eject the substitute coin from the ticket dispensing slot.

[0009] Furthermore, the ticket dispensing device also includes a limiting block, which is set at a predetermined position on the base and is used to cooperate with the ejection mechanism to output the substitute coin from the ticket dispensing port.

[0010] Furthermore, the ticket dispensing device also includes a connecting shell, which is disposed on the base, and the coin dispensing slot is connected to the ticket storage box through the connecting shell.

[0011] Furthermore, the token-based single-journey ticket vending machine also includes a counting sensor, which is set at the channel position through which the tokens pass after the ticket dispensing slot. The counting sensor is used to count the number of tokens that pass through the set channel position.

[0012] Furthermore, the reading and writing identification device includes an antenna plate, which is located at the coin dispensing position after the coin dispensing slot. The antenna plate is used to identify or read / write the substitute coins in a timely manner.

[0013] Furthermore, the read / write recognition device is provided with a first coin dispensing channel and a second coin dispensing channel; the coin dispensing channel assembly includes a first target pipe, a second target pipe, and a third target pipe;

[0014] The first coin dispensing channel is connected to the second coin dispensing channel; the first coin dispensing channel is equipped with a first solenoid valve and a second solenoid valve; the second coin dispensing channel is equipped with a third solenoid valve; the first solenoid valve, the second solenoid valve, and the third solenoid valve are respectively used to block substitute coins in a timely manner;

[0015] The second coin dispensing channel is connected to the first target pipe;

[0016] The second target channel and the third target channel are respectively connected to the first coin dispensing channel in a timely manner.

[0017] Furthermore, the coin distribution channel component also includes a reversing mechanism, which is disposed at one end of the second target pipe or one end of the third target pipe;

[0018] The second target channel is connected to the first coin dispensing channel in a timely manner through the switching mechanism;

[0044] The following will provide a clear and complete description of the concept, specific structure, and technical effects of this utility model in conjunction with the embodiments and accompanying drawings, so as to fully understand the purpose, solution, and effects of this utility model. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. The same reference numerals used throughout the drawings indicate the same or similar parts.

[0045] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, when a feature is referred to as "fixed" or "connected" to another feature, it can be directly fixed or connected to the other feature, or it can be indirectly fixed or connected to the other feature. Furthermore, the descriptions of "upper," "lower," "left," and "right" used in this utility model are only relative to the relative positional relationships of the various components of this utility model in the accompanying drawings.

[0046] Reference Figures 1 to 12A token-based single-journey ticket vending machine 1 includes a ticket storage box 2, a ticket dispensing device 3, a reader / writer identification device 4, and a coin distribution channel assembly 5. The ticket storage box 2 is used to store substitute coins 9. The ticket storage box 2 is connected to the ticket dispensing device 3. The ticket dispensing device 3 includes a coin dispensing turntable 31, the coin dispensing slot 311 of which is connected to the ticket storage box 2 and the ticket dispensing slot 11. The coin dispensing turntable 31 is used to transport the substitute coins 9 from the ticket storage box 2 to the ticket dispensing slot 11. The reader / writer identification device 4 is located at the coin dispensing position after the ticket dispensing slot 11 and is used to identify or read / write the substitute coins 9 from the ticket dispensing slot 11. The coin distribution channel assembly 5 is located at the coin dispensing position after the reader / writer identification device 4 and is used to output the substitute coins 9 from the reader / writer identification device 4 through the target channel.

[0047] In one embodiment, the token 9 is used as a one-way ticket; therefore, the vending machine for issuing the token 9 is also called a "token-based one-way ticket vending machine." The token can also be referred to as "Token" in English; the ticket issuing device can also be referred to as "Hopper" in English.

[0048] In one embodiment, the ticket box 2 has a storage capacity of 2,000 substitute coins 9.

[0049] Reference Figures 1 to 12 In one embodiment, the ticket dispensing device 3 further includes a base 32, a stop block 33, and a ejection mechanism 34; the stop block 33 and the ejection mechanism 34 are respectively disposed at a set position on the base 32; the coin dispensing turntable 31 is rotatably disposed on the base 32; the stop block 33 is used to cooperate with the coin dispensing slot 311 to convey the substitute coin 9 to the ticket dispensing port 11; the ejection mechanism 34 is used to eject the substitute coin 9 from the ticket dispensing port 11.

[0050] Reference Figures 1 to 12 In one embodiment, the ticket dispensing device 3 further includes a limiting block 35, which is disposed at a predetermined position on the base 32. The limiting block 35 is used to cooperate with the ejection mechanism 34 to output the substitute coin 9 from the ticket dispensing port 11. The limiting block 35 helps prevent the substitute coin 9 from veering to one side during the output process from the ticket dispensing port 11.

[0051] Reference Figures 1 to 12 In one embodiment, the ticket dispensing device 3 further includes a connecting shell 36, which is disposed on the base 32. The coin dispensing slot 311 is connected to the ticket storage box 2 through the connecting shell 36. The connecting shell 36 is used to guide the substitute coins 9 (dropped from the ticket storage box 2) into the coin dispensing slot 311. This utility model's rotary ticket dispensing device 3 ("non-chain-type substitute coin conveying") effectively solves the problem of ticket jamming that easily occurs when single-journey tickets are conveyed through a chain in the ticket storage box in the past.

[0052] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 In one embodiment, the connecting shell 36 has a funnel-shaped structure that is wider at the top and narrower at the bottom.

[0053] Reference Figures 1 to 12 In one embodiment, the ejection mechanism 34 includes an ejection wheel 341, which is movably disposed on the base 32. The ejection wheel 341 can contact the side wall of the substitute coin 9 for conveying the substitute coin 9. Preferably, other structural components of the ejection mechanism 34 can be found in the prior art.

[0054] In one embodiment, the ticket dispensing device 3 further includes a driving device, which is disposed on the base 32 and connected to the coin dispensing turntable 31 for driving the coin dispensing turntable 31 to rotate.

[0055] In one embodiment, the driving device is a motor, which is mounted on the base 32. The rotating part 37 of the motor is connected to the coin dispensing turntable 31 and drives the coin dispensing turntable 31 to rotate. The turntable structure formed by the motor and the coin dispensing turntable 31 has strong torque and can separate stuck-together tickets (i.e., substitute coins are stuck together), resulting in high ticket dispensing efficiency.

[0056] In one embodiment, the thickness of the substitute coin 9 is 2mm. Preferably, the gap height of the ticket outlet 11 of this utility model is designed to be 2.4mm (slightly larger than the thickness of the substitute coin, allowing only one substitute coin to pass through). This design meets the ticketing requirements of a single-journey ticket (i.e., a substitute coin) and will not cause the single-journey tickets to overlap and be found, resulting in the situation of "multiple tickets being issued".

[0057] In one embodiment, the coin dispensing turntable 31 is made of an alloy material, which enhances its strength and effectively solves the problem of easy damage to the coin dispensing turntable.

[0058] Reference Figure 5 and Figure 6 In one embodiment, the coin dispensing turntable 31 is provided with three coin dispensing slots 311 evenly distributed along the circumferential direction. Specifically, refer to... Figure 7 From a top-down view, the angle B between the center lines A of the two adjacent coin slots 311 is 120° (center line A: the line connecting the rotation center C (i.e., the center of the rotating part 37) and the top-down center D of the coin slot 311). When the coin dispensing turntable 31 rotates once, it can eject three one-way tickets (i.e., substitute coins) in sequence. The three one-way tickets are output one by one from the ticket outlet 11.

[0059] Reference Figures 1 to 12In one embodiment, the inner wall of the coin dispensing slot 311 is provided with a pushing surface 38. When the substitute coin 9 falls into the coin dispensing slot 311, due to the presence of the pushing surface 38, after the coin dispensing turntable 31 rotates at a set angle, the coin dispensing slot 311 can transport the substitute coin 9 to the ticket dispensing slot 11. At that time, with the help of the stop block 33, the substitute coin 9 can be smoothly output to the ticket dispensing slot 11. Then, with the help of the ejection mechanism 34 and the limiting block 35, the substitute coin 9 is ejected from the ticket dispensing slot 11, thereby smoothly entering the first coin dispensing channel 42 of the reader / writer 4.

[0060] Reference Figures 1 to 12 In one embodiment, specifically, after the substitute coin 9 falls into the three coin slots 311 of the coin dispensing turntable 31, it will move forward to the ticket outlet 11 under the drive of the coin dispensing turntable 31. Then it will be blocked by the stop block 33 and will no longer be able to move forward in the circumferential direction. Under the combined action of the coin slots 311 and the stop block 33, the substitute coin 9 will move towards the ticket outlet 11. Then, when it moves forward, it will press against the ejection mechanism 34. When the substitute coin 9 passes the set position and no longer presses against the ejection mechanism 34, the ejection mechanism 34 will return to its original state. Then the ejection wheel 341 will eject the substitute coin 9 out of the ticket outlet 11 with a large relative force.

[0061] Reference Figures 1 to 12 In one embodiment, the token-based one-way ticket vending machine 1 further includes a counting sensor 6, which is located at the channel position through which the substitute coin 9 passes after the ticket outlet 11.

[0068] The second target pipe 52 is connected to the first coin outlet channel 42 in a timely manner through the reversing mechanism 54;

[0069] The third target channel 53 is connected to the first coin dispensing channel 42 in a timely manner through the reversing mechanism 54.

[0070] Reference Figures 1 to 12 In one embodiment, the read / write identification device 4 is provided with a read / write identification area 47, and the substitute coin 9 located in the read / write identification area 47 can be identified or read / written by the antenna plate 41.

[0071] Reference Figures 1 to 12 In one embodiment, the reversing mechanism 54 includes a reversing electromagnet 541 and a reversing part 542. The reversing electromagnet 541 is connected to the reversing part 542. The reversing electromagnet 541 drives the reversing part 542 to operate. The reversing part 542 enables the connection between the second target channel 52 and the first coin dispensing channel 42, and enables the connection between the third target channel 53 and the first coin dispensing channel 42. Preferably, other structural components of the reversing mechanism 54 can be found in the prior art.

[0072] Preferably, the other end of the second target pipe 52 is connected to the first recycling bin; the other end of the third target pipe 53 is connected to the second recycling bin.

[0073] In one embodiment, the first target pipeline 51 is a "ticket issuance pipeline" for issuing substitute coins 9 to passengers; the second target pipeline 52 is a "waste ticket pipeline" for transporting substitute coins 9 that have failed to be read or written to the first recycling bin; and the third target pipeline 53 is a "one-way ticket recycling pipeline" for recycling substitute coins 9 to the second recycling bin.

[0074] In one embodiment, the token-based one-way ticket vending machine 1 further includes a controller (such as a control panel with an integrated chip), which is connected to the counting sensor 6. The power supply and signal lines of the counting sensor 6 are provided by the controller. The controller can independently control the power supply to and from the counting sensor 6. If necessary, the counting sensor 6 can be checked for power failure to reduce the probability of the vending machine issuing incorrect tickets.

[0075] In one embodiment, the motor is connected to the controller; the antenna board 41 is connected to the controller; the first solenoid valve 44, the second solenoid valve 45, and the third solenoid valve 46 are all connected to the controller; and the commutation electromagnet 541 is connected to the controller.

[0076] Reference Figures 1 to 12 In one embodiment, the device further includes a housing 7; the ticket storage box 2 and the ticket dispensing device 3 are respectively disposed at a set position on the housing 7, and the ticket dispensing device 3 is located below the ticket storage box 2. This design facilitates the dropping of the substitute coin 9 from the ticket storage box 2 into the ticket dispensing device 3.

[0077] Reference Figures 1 to 12 In one embodiment, the read / write identification device 4 and the coin distribution channel component 5 are respectively disposed at designated positions on the housing 7.

[0078] Reference Figures 1 to 12 In one embodiment, the housing 7 is further provided with a bracket assembly 8 (the bracket assembly is composed of a connecting plate, bolts and nuts), and the housing 7 is installed inside the TVM through the bracket assembly 8; wherein, the TVM is also called an automatic ticket vending machine, and its full English name is "Ticket Vending Machine".

[0079] Reference Figures 1 to 12 In one embodiment, the ticket issuance process for substitute coin 9 is as follows:

[0080] The substitute coin 9 falls from the ticket storage box 2 into the ticket dispensing device 3. When a ticket needs to be dispensed, the controller issues a change control command, controlling the motor of the ticket dispensing device 3 to rotate. The rotation of the motor drives the coin dispensing turntable 31 to rotate. The coin dispensing turntable 31 transfers the substitute coin 9 to the ticket dispensing slot 11 through the coin dispensing groove 311. After the substitute coin 9 exits from the ticket dispensing slot 11, it falls into the first coin dispensing channel 42 of the reader / writer identification device 4. The first solenoid valve 44, the second solenoid valve 45, and the third solenoid valve 46, under the control of the controller, block the substitute coin 9 in the reader / writer identification area 47. After the antenna plate 41 identifies the substitute coin 9, it reads and writes information on the substitute coin 9. After the information is successfully modified, the third solenoid valve 46 opens and no longer blocks the substitute coin 9. The substitute coin 9 then flows along the second coin dispensing channel 43 and then along the first target pipe 51 to be output to the passenger.

[0081] Reference Figures 1 to 12 In one embodiment, the waste recycling process for substitute coin 9 is as follows:

[0082] The substitute coin 9 falls from the ticket storage box 2 into the ticket dispensing device 3. When a ticket needs to be dispensed, the controller issues a change control command, controlling the motor of the ticket dispensing device 3 to rotate. The rotation of the motor drives the coin dispensing turntable 31 to rotate. The coin dispensing turntable 31 transfers the substitute coin 9 to the ticket dispensing slot 11 through the coin dispensing groove 311. After the substitute coin 9 exits from the ticket dispensing slot 11, it falls into the first coin dispensing channel 42 of the reader / writer 4. The first solenoid valve 44, the second solenoid valve 45, and the third solenoid valve 42... Under the control of the controller, the solenoid valve 46 blocks the substitute coin 9 in the read / write identification area 47. After the antenna plate 41 identifies the substitute coin 9, it reads and writes information on the substitute coin 9. If the information modification fails, the reversing mechanism 54, under the control of the controller, connects the second target pipe 52 and the first coin outlet channel 42. The second solenoid valve 45 opens and no longer blocks the substitute coin 9. The substitute coin 9 is then output to the first recycling box along the first coin outlet channel 42 and then along the second target pipe 52.

[0083] Reference Figures 1 to 12 In one embodiment, the recycling process for substitute coin 9 is as follows:

[0084] The substitute coin 9 falls from the ticket storage box 2 into the ticket dispensing device 3. When the substitute coin 9 needs to be retrieved, the controller issues a ticket clearing control command, controlling the motor of the ticket dispensing device 3 to rotate. The rotation of the motor drives the coin dispensing turntable 31 to rotate. The coin dispensing turntable 31 transfers the substitute coin 9 to the ticket dispensing slot 11 through the coin dispensing groove 311. After exiting from the ticket dispensing slot 11, the substitute coin 9 falls into the first coin dispensing channel 42 of the reader / writer identification device 4. Under the control of the controller, the third solenoid valve 46 acts as a blocking valve, while the first solenoid valve 44 and the second solenoid valve 45 do not act as blocking valves. Under the control of the controller, the reversing mechanism 54 connects the third target pipe 53 and the first coin dispensing channel 42. The substitute coin 9 is transported along the first coin dispensing channel 42 and then along the third target pipe 53 to the second recycling box. During the process, the substitute coin 9 does not require the antenna plate 41 to read or write information.

[0085] In one embodiment, the token-based single-journey ticket vending machine of this utility model adopts a combination of rotary "ticket dispensing" (non-chain-type conveying of substitute coins) and solenoid valve "ticket splitting" method, which can effectively reduce situations such as single-journey tickets being left unused, multiple tickets being dispensed, invalid tickets being dispensed, and motor stalling, thereby reducing the failure rate of the vending machine and increasing its service life.

[0086] Other aspects of the token-based single-journey ticket vending machine described in this utility model are found in the prior art and will not be repeated here.

[0087] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model in any way. Therefore, any modifications, equivalent changes, and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present utility model without departing from the technical solution of the present utility model shall still fall within the scope of the technical solution of the present utility model.
