Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vending machine technology, and in particular to a weighing and breaking mechanism and a vending machine. Background Technology

[0002] Vending machines are commonly used equipment in commercial automation. They are not limited by time or location, save manpower, and facilitate transactions. They represent a new form of commercial retail and are also known as 24-hour mini-supermarkets. Furthermore, with market changes, vending machines have evolved into various styles.

[0003] For some vending machines that require heating, such as those for boxed meals, the boxed meals need to be punctured before heating to reduce the heating time; however, the puncture parts usually have sharp points that can easily cause injury to staff. Summary of the Invention

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, the purpose of this utility model is to provide a breaking mechanism and a vending machine to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0008] A protective plate; the protective plate is slidably connected to the bracket in the vertical direction via a connector; the protective plate and the bottom of the bracket form a protective space; the protective plate has an initial state and a broken state. When the protective plate is not subjected to other external forces, it is in the initial state, at which time the broken piece is located within the protective space; when the protective plate is subjected to other external forces and moves upward, the end of the broken piece passes through the protective plate.

[0009] Furthermore, the breaching component includes a main body and a pointed head; when the protective plate is subjected to other external forces and moves upward, the pointed head passes through the protective plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the protective plate has a through hole for the pointed head to pass through;

[0011] Furthermore, the pointed end is conical; the diameter of the through hole is smaller than the maximum diameter of the pointed end.

[0012] Furthermore, an elastic element is provided between the bracket and the protective plate; the elastic element acts on the protective plate, so that the protective plate is in its initial state when it is not subjected to other external forces.

[0013] Furthermore, the elastic element is a spring; the spring is sleeved on the tear element.

[0014] Furthermore, there are two breaching components; the ends of the two breaching components are connected by a connecting plate; the connecting plate is located within the protective space; the connecting plate is fixedly connected to the bracket.

[0015] Furthermore, the bracket has an adjustment waist hole along the vertical direction, and the connecting plate has a fixing hole.

[0016] Furthermore, the connector is a round shaft, and a linear bearing is mounted on the bracket, with the connector slidably connected to the linear bearing.

[0017] Secondly, this utility model also provides a vending machine, including a breaking mechanism.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, this utility model brings the following technical effects:

[0019] The breaking mechanism of this utility model, through the protective space formed between the protective plate and the bottom of the support, allows the protective plate to hide the breaking part in the protective space without other external forces, which can effectively protect the staff and prevent them from being injured by bumping into the breaking part when adding goods or performing maintenance.
