[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automatic vending equipment technology, and in particular to an emergency three-in-one automatic vending machine. Background Technology

[0002] In crowded places such as schools and office buildings, people often face emergencies requiring temporary access to hygiene products like tissues and sanitary napkins, or urgent charging of their mobile phones due to low battery. Currently, most vending machines on the market are single-function designs, either only selling snacks and drinks or only providing power bank rental services, failing to simultaneously meet the dual emergency needs for hygiene products and charging. Furthermore, existing vending machines selling hygiene products often suffer from issues such as jamming during the delivery process, frequent product jams, and insufficient anti-theft features at the dispensing port, causing inconvenience to users and increasing maintenance costs for operators. Therefore, there is an urgent need for an automated vending machine that integrates the supply of multiple emergency items, provides stable delivery, and has anti-theft features to fill the market gap and meet the emergency needs of people in crowded places.

[0003] Therefore, how to design an emergency three-in-one vending machine has become a problem we need to solve. Summary of the Invention

[0009] Preferably, the front of the rectangular box also has a QR code ordering interface.

[0010] Preferably, the drive motor is a stepper motor, and the anti-theft plate is made of metal.

[0011] Beneficial effects

[0012] This utility model provides an emergency three-in-one automatic vending machine, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0013] Integrated Functions: This vending machine integrates the sale of tissues and sanitary napkins with the supply of power banks, forming a "three-in-one" emergency supply mode. It is suitable for densely populated places such as schools, effectively meeting people's emergency needs for hygiene products and charging, eliminating the need for users to search for multiple different devices and improving ease of use.

[0014] High conveying stability: The roller in the loading component adopts a spiral spring structure. The gap between the springs can stably hold tissues and sanitary napkins. When the drive motor drives the roller to rotate, it can smoothly pull the items out from the left side of the roller, avoiding the problems of items getting stuck or jammed in traditional conveying methods, reducing equipment maintenance costs and improving the user experience.

[0015] Excellent anti-theft performance: The one-way opening anti-theft plate at the outlet allows items to be discharged from the inside only, effectively preventing outsiders from reaching in through the outlet to steal items.

[0016] Highly practical: Multiple storage components are independently controlled, allowing for the separate sale of paper towels and sanitary napkins. Attached Figure Description

[0023] Example

[0024] like Figures 1-2 As shown, this utility model provides an emergency three-in-one automatic vending machine, including a rectangular box 1. The rectangular box 1 is made of stainless steel, which has certain pressure resistance and corrosion resistance, extending the service life of the equipment. Five product placement components 2 are evenly arranged along the height direction inside the rectangular box 1.

[0025] Each loading assembly 2 consists of a spiral spring-structured roller 21 and a drive motor 22. The drive motor 22 is a stepper motor, which can precisely control the rotation angle of the roller 21 to ensure that only one item is transported at a time. The drive motor 22 is fixed to the inner wall of the rectangular box 1 by bolts, and its output end is fixedly connected to one end of the roller 21 by a coupling. The gap between the springs is designed according to the size of tissues and sanitary napkins to ensure that the items can be stably stuck in the gaps and fall smoothly as the roller 21 rotates.

[0026] A dispensing port 3 is provided on the lower left side of the rectangular box 1. The size of the dispensing port 3 is slightly larger than the maximum size of tissues and sanitary napkins to prevent items from getting stuck during the discharge process. A metal anti-theft plate 4 is hinged to the dispensing port 3. The anti-theft plate 4 is designed to open outward only under the weight of the items and close automatically under its own weight when there is no external force, preventing outsiders from stealing the items inside through the dispensing port 3.

[0027] Four power bank placement slots 5 are evenly arranged on the right side of the rectangular box 1. Each slot 5 contains a power bank with a charging cable. A USB charging port is located on the inner wall of each slot 5. When a power bank is returned, the charging port automatically connects to the power bank's charging port to charge it. An electromagnetic lock is installed at the opening of each slot 5. The electromagnetic lock is electrically connected to the device control system. After the user selects the power bank service and completes payment via the QR code order interface, the control system opens the corresponding electromagnetic lock, allowing the user to remove the power bank. Upon return, the user places the power bank in the slot 5 and closes the electromagnetic lock; the system records the return status.

[0028] The front also features a QR code ordering interface. Users can place orders by scanning the QR code using the scanning program, and then complete the ordering and shipment process in conjunction with the control system.

[0029] After the user successfully pays by scanning the code, the control system controls the drive motor 22 of the corresponding loading component 2 to start, which drives the scroll 21 to rotate, transports an item to the left and drops it. The item hits the anti-theft plate 4, causing it to open outward. After the item is discharged, the anti-theft plate 4 closes automatically, and the user takes the item from the delivery port 3.

[0030] It should be noted that, in this document, relational terms such as "first" and "second" are used only to distinguish one entity or operation from another, and do not necessarily require or imply any such actual relationship or order between these entities or operations. Furthermore, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that a process, method, article, or apparatus that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such process, method, article, or apparatus.
