Specifically, a rectangular opening communicating with its inner cavity is provided on the rear side of the top surface of the housing 10. The rear end of the cover 11 is hinged to the rear end of the opening. The cover 11 rotates around its hinge axis with the housing 10 to close / open the opening. A locking structure is provided at the connection between the housing 10 and the cover 11. The locking structure includes a lock body disposed on the front side of the housing 10 near the opening and a lock tongue disposed on the front side of the bottom of the cover 11. The lock body and the lock tongue cooperate to open and close. The locking structure can effectively prevent unauthorized personnel from opening the cover 11, thereby improving the security of the equipment. A wine receiving cavity 101 is provided on the front side of the housing 10. The wine receiving cavity 101 is a rectangular groove that is recessed to the rear. The bottom of the groove is more than 15cm above the bottom surface of the housing 10, which can accommodate more than 90% of wine glasses on the market. A QR code is affixed to the front side of the housing 10.

[0021] The machine body includes a wine storage container 20, an output pump 21, a first pipeline 22, and a second pipeline 23. The wine storage container 20 is disposed inside the housing 10. The output pump 21 is preferably a micro peristaltic pump. The inlet end of the output pump 21 is connected to the first end of the first pipeline 22, the second end of the first pipeline 22 is connected to the wine storage container 20, and the outlet end of the output pump 21 is connected to the first end of the second pipeline 23. The second end of the second pipeline 23 passes through the housing 10 and is disposed in the upper part of the wine receiving chamber 101. The controller is embedded in the housing 10 and is electrically connected to the output pump 21 to control the start and stop of the output pump 21 and the duration of a single run.

[0022] The working principle of the intelligent wine vending machine in this embodiment of the utility model is as follows: Customers complete the payment by scanning the wine vending QR code or opening the WeChat mini program to enter the purchase interface. The controller controls the output pump 21 to start, so that the output pump 21 draws out the wine in the wine storage container 20 and delivers it to the wine glass placed at the wine receiving chamber 101 through the first pipeline 22 and the second pipeline 23, thereby realizing automatic wine supply and improving wine vending efficiency.

[0023] In an embodiment of this utility model, a partition 12 is vertically arranged inside the housing 10. The partition 12 divides the housing 10 into a first cavity located on the front side and a second cavity located on the rear side. The wine storage container 20 is placed in the second cavity. The output pump 21 is fixed to the front side of the partition 12 through the water pump mounting component 211. The partition 12 has a through hole for the first pipe 22 to pass through. The first pipe 22 is provided with a protective coil 221 at the position that mates with the through hole, which can effectively reduce the friction between the first pipe 22 and the edge of the through hole and protect the first pipe 22.

[0024] In an embodiment of this utility model, an outlet wine fixing component 231 is fixedly installed in the first cavity, and the second end of the second pipeline 23 is fixedly inserted through the outlet wine fixing component 231. The outlet wine fixing component 211 is used to fix the second end of the second pipeline 23 to ensure that the second end of the second pipeline 23 does not shake during the wine supply process, thereby improving the stability of the liquid output.

[0025] In embodiments of this utility model, a light box 28 connected to the controller via electrical signals is also included. Setting up the light box 28 can effectively guide customers to notice the location of the wine vending machine and increase the exposure of the equipment.

[0026] In this embodiment of the invention, the second pipeline 23 is connected to a flow meter 24, which is electrically connected to the controller to provide real-time feedback on the flow rate of the liquor. When the flow rate reaches a preset standard, the controller stops the output pump 21 to ensure accurate dispensing of liquor per transaction.

[0027] In embodiments of this utility model, there are multiple wine storage containers 20 (e.g., three). The output pump 21, the first pipeline 22, and the second pipeline 23 are all configured in a one-to-one correspondence with the wine storage containers 20. The wine storage containers 20 are plastic or glass bottles. When the wine in a certain wine storage container 20 is sold out, it can be directly replaced with a wine storage container 20 filled with wine. The three wine storage containers 20 can hold wines of different brands or different alcohol contents to meet the diverse selection needs of customers.

[0028] In this embodiment of the invention, a connecting cap 25 is fitted over the upper opening of the wine storage container 20. A check valve 251 is installed through the connecting cap 25. The second end of the first pipeline 22 is inserted into the liquid outlet of the check valve 251. The one-way flow characteristic of the check valve 251 prevents the wine in the storage container 20 from flowing back due to gravity or pipeline pressure, thus avoiding mixing or contamination of the wine. When replacing the wine storage container 20, only the connecting cap 25 needs to be opened to complete the disassembly of the old container and the installation of the new container. The operation is convenient and does not require emptying the pipeline.

[0029] In an embodiment of this utility model, a one-way valve 26 is provided at the position of the second pipeline 23 near its first end (i.e. the end near the output pump 21) to prevent the wine in the second pipeline 23 from flowing in the reverse direction due to inertia when the output pump 21 stops working.

[0030] In this embodiment of the utility model, a push switch 27 electrically connected to the controller is provided on the top surface of the housing 10. The push switch 27 corresponds one-to-one with the output pump 21 (three are provided in this embodiment, corresponding to three types of wine respectively). After the user selects the wine through the display 28, he / she can press the corresponding push switch 27 to start the output pump 21 and extract the wine from the corresponding wine storage container 20. The operation is intuitive and supports the simultaneous supply of multiple wines.

[0031] This utility model embodiment discloses an intelligent wine vending machine. The controller controls the output pump to automatically complete the extraction and metering of wine without manual operation and can serve multiple people at the same time, greatly improving the wine vending efficiency. The flow meter 24 monitors the wine flow in real time, and the controller controls the output pump 21 to start and stop according to the preset value to avoid inaccurate metering. Multiple wine storage containers 20 cooperate with the corresponding output pump 21 and pipeline system to sell wines of different brands, alcohol contents or flavors at the same time, meeting the diverse needs of consumers.
