Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of candy machine technology, specifically a candy machine that dispenses sugar by rotation. Background Technology
[0002] The candy machine is a fun storage device designed specifically for children. It can safely store various types of ready-made candies. When a child wants to take some candy, they simply press a button, rotate the handle, or shake the machine (the specific operation depends on the design). The machine will then automatically discharge the candy through a gravity slide, spiral push, or tipping mechanism. This makes it convenient to take the candy and avoids direct contact with the remaining candy, ensuring hygiene. The machine body is usually made of rounded, environmentally friendly materials, with a transparent window or cute design, which can attract children's interest and allow parents to intuitively monitor the remaining amount, combining practicality and childlike fun.
[0003] The prior art patent application number is 201410735556.5, entitled "A Candy Machine," which includes a base and a candy container. The base is located at the lower end of the candy container, and the bottom of the candy container has a candy outlet. The lower end of the base has a candy dispensing outlet, which communicates with the candy dispensing outlet. The base has a candy dispensing device, which includes a turntable and a handle. The turntable is located below the candy outlet, and the handle is located on one side of the base and connected to the turntable. When candy is placed in the candy container and needs to be removed, the handle is rotated to allow the candy to enter the turntable from the candy outlet. Continuing to rotate the handle causes the candy entering the turntable to fall into the candy dispensing outlet, from which a child can then remove the candy. This invention features a novel structure, simple operation, and convenient candy dispensing. The candy dispensing device allows children to play while dispensing candy, making it both fun and practical. However, the dispensing mechanism uses a rotating handle to rotate a turntable, allowing the candy to exit through grooves on the turntable. Due to the lack of an effective limiting mechanism, the turntable may rotate on its own without human intervention, causing candy to leak out accidentally through the grooves. This not only results in waste but also negatively impacts the user experience. Furthermore, the existing assembly method relies solely on simple bonding between the candy dispensers, lacking secure connecting structures such as snap-fits or slots, and a unified alignment standard. This makes the assembled unit susceptible to displacement due to external impacts or vibrations, hindering stable multi-unit combinations. Therefore, a new technical solution is needed to address these issues. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation
[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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.
[0022] Example 1: Please refer to again Figure 1-5This utility model provides a rotating candy dispensing machine, including a base 100, a candy outlet 110 on one side of the base 100, a partition 120 snapped into the inner side of the base 100, a candy dispensing hole 121 on the top of the partition 120, a hook 122 fixedly connected to the top of the partition 120, a positioning post 123 fixedly connected to the top of the partition 120, a rotating knob 130 rotatably connected to the outer side of the positioning post 123, the rotating knob 130 being located above the candy dispensing hole 121, a tension spring 131 hanging on the outer side of the rotating knob 130, and one end of the tension spring 131 being hooked to the hook 122.
[0023] Specifically, by turning the rotary knob 130, the rotary knob 130 rotates around the positioning post 123, causing the rotary knob 130 to move away from above the candy outlet 121. At the same time, the tension spring 131 is stretched, exposing the candy outlet 121. Subsequently, the candy in the candy packaging bottle 210 is discharged through the bottle holder 200 and the candy outlet 121, causing the candy to fall into the candy outlet 110. After the candy is removed, the rotary knob 130 is released, causing the stretched tension spring 131 to contract. The top rotary knob 130 rotates in the opposite direction around the positioning post 123, causing the rotary knob 130 to move back above the candy outlet 121, blocking the candy outlet 121.
[0024] Example 2: Please refer to again Figure 1-5 A bottle holder 200 is snapped onto the top of the base 100. A sugar granule packaging bottle 210 is screwed onto the inner side of the bottle holder 200. A positioning chamber 220 is fixedly connected to the outer side of the bottle holder 200. An arc-shaped groove 221 is formed on the outer side of the positioning chamber 220. A first mounting cylinder 230 is fixedly connected to the top of the positioning chamber 220. A pressure rod 231 is slidably connected to the inner cavity of the first mounting cylinder 230. The bottom end of the pressure rod 231 passes through the first mounting cylinder 230 and extends into the inner cavity of the positioning chamber 220. A first return spring 232 is sleeved on the outer side of the pressure rod 231. A connecting rod 240 is inserted into the top of the first mounting cylinder 230. The bottom end of 40 passes through the first mounting cylinder 230 and extends into the inner cavity of the first mounting cylinder 230. The bottom end of the connecting rod 240 is fixedly connected to the pressure rod 231. The outer side of the bottle holder 200 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 250. The top of the mounting plate 250 is fixedly connected to the second mounting cylinder 260. The inner cavity of the second mounting cylinder 260 is embedded with the second return spring 261. The inner cavity of the second mounting cylinder 260 is slidably connected to the arc-shaped locking rod 270. The arc-shaped locking rod 270 is located above the second return spring 261. The top end of the arc-shaped locking rod 270 passes through the second mounting cylinder 260 and extends to the top end of the second mounting cylinder 260.
[0025] Specifically, by pushing one side of the candy machine, the arc-shaped lever 270 on that side passes through the arc-shaped groove 221 on the positioning chamber 220 of the other side of the candy machine and enters the positioning chamber 220. During the process of the arc-shaped lever 270 entering the positioning chamber 220, it moves downwards under the influence of the arc-shaped groove 221, compressing the second return spring 261 inside the second mounting cylinder 260. After the arc-shaped lever 270 enters the positioning chamber 220, the second return spring 261... 61. The reset pushes the arc-shaped locking rod 270 upward, so that the arc-shaped locking rod 270 is in the positioning chamber 220, so that the two candy machines can be spliced and assembled. When disassembly is required, the connecting rod 240 is pressed down to squeeze the pressure rod 231, so that the pressure rod 231 moves downward and squeezes the arc-shaped locking rod 270 and the first reset spring 232, so that the height of the arc-shaped locking rod 270 is flush with the opening of the arc-shaped groove 221. Then the two candy machines can be separated and disassembled.
[0026] Working principle: By turning the rotary knob 130, the rotary knob 130 rotates around the positioning post 123, moving the rotary knob 130 away from the sugar outlet 121. At the same time, the tension spring 131 is stretched, exposing the sugar outlet 121. Then, the candy in the candy packaging bottle 210 is discharged through the bottle holder 200 and the sugar outlet 121, causing the candy to fall into the candy outlet 110. After the candy is removed, the rotary knob 130 is released, causing the stretched tension spring 131 to contract. The top rotary knob 130 rotates in the opposite direction around the positioning post 123, moving the rotary knob 130 back above the sugar outlet 121 to block the sugar outlet 121.
[0027] By pushing one candy machine, the arc-shaped clamping rod 270 on that machine passes through the arc-shaped groove 221 on the positioning chamber 220 of the other candy machine and enters the chamber. During the process of the arc-shaped clamping rod 270 entering the positioning chamber 220, it moves downward under the influence of the arc-shaped groove 221, compressing the second return spring 261 in the second mounting cylinder 260. After the arc-shaped clamping rod 270 enters the positioning chamber 220, the second return spring 261 resets and pushes the arc-shaped clamping rod 270 upward, so that the arc-shaped clamping rod 270 is in the positioning chamber 220, thus completing the splicing and assembly of the two candy machines. When disassembly is required, the connecting rod 240 is pressed down to squeeze the pressure rod 231, causing the pressure rod 231 to move downward and simultaneously squeeze the arc-shaped clamping rod 270 and the first return spring 232, so that the height of the arc-shaped clamping rod 270 is flush with the opening of the arc-shaped groove 221. Then the two candy machines can be separated and disassembled.
