[0037] Specifically, such as Figure 4 As shown, cavity 14 is opened on the inner wall of body 3, and photoelectric sensor 28 is fixedly connected to the surface of cup holder 15.
[0038] Specifically, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the observation window 21 is fixedly connected to the front side of the body 3, and the counting module 29 is fixedly connected to the lower right side of the cup holder 15.
[0039] Specifically, such as Figure 3 As shown, a placement rack 27 is fixedly connected to the front side of the body 3, and the inner wall of the placement rack 27 is provided with several cup slots 25.
[0040] In this embodiment: by setting a magnetic lid door 11, convenient opening and closing can be achieved through magnetic attraction; by setting a lid door latch 12, the seal can be strengthened when closed; when the user takes the cup, the transmission rod 17 drives the lifting lid 18 to push the cup out of the cup slot 25.
[0041] Specifically, such as Figure 3 , Figure 5 As shown, the lifting cover 18 is movably connected to the inner wall of the cup groove 25, and a buffer pad 26 is fixedly connected to the top of the lifting cover 18.
[0042] Specifically, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, a mounting door 4 is movably connected to the front side of the body 3, and a heating wire 24 is fixedly connected between the mounting door 4 and the magnetic cover door 11.
[0043] In this embodiment: by opening the cavity 14, cups can be stored or taken out of the cup holder 15; by setting the rubber buffer strip 22, the collision noise and wear when closing the door can be reduced; and by setting the observation window 21, the user can easily check the status of the beverage inside.
[0044] Specifically, such as Figure 3 , Figure 5 As shown, a transmission rod 17 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the body 3, and the transmission rod 17 is movably connected to the bottom of the lifting cover 18.

[0046] In this embodiment: by setting a buffer pad 26, collision damage can be avoided; by setting a magnetic suction cap opening 19, scattered cup lids can be adsorbed, improving the convenience of taking the lid off; by setting a heating wire 24, condensation on the door can be prevented in low-temperature environments, ensuring smooth opening and closing.
[0047] Specifically, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, a conveying groove 16 is provided directly below the cup holder 15, and the conveying groove 16 is connected to the discharge frame 5.
[0048] Specifically, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, rubber buffer strips 22 are fixedly connected to both sides of the machine body 3, and the dimensions of the groove 13 and the discharge frame 5 are adapted to the dimensions of the magnetic suction lid door 11.
[0049] In this embodiment: by setting a photoelectric sensor 28, it is possible to detect whether the cup holder 15 is missing a cup. By setting a counting module 29, the number of cups can be counted and transmitted to the control box 23. The cups can be conveyed to the discharge frame 5 through the conveying trough 16, and the user can take them away by opening the magnetic lid door 11.
[0050] Working principle: When a user needs to use the self-service beverage machine, they first select the desired beverage through the control box 23. The machine then starts the beverage preparation process. During the preparation process, the user can check the progress through the observation window 21. The photoelectric sensor 28 detects in real time whether there are cups in the cup holder 15. If a cup is missing, the control box 23 will issue a reminder. If the cup lids are scattered during this process, they can be retrieved by magnetic suction 19. When the user needs to retrieve a cup, they can directly pull the magnetic suction lid doors 11 on both sides of the machine body 3. The magnetic suction structure opens and closes easily without force. After all the cups are in use, they are transported to the dispensing frame 5 through the conveyor trough 16. Finally, the cups are removed and placed in the cup slot 25 of the placement rack 27. Beverage preparation is complete. After completion, the control box 23 controls the transmission rod 17 to operate, driving the lifting cover 18 to push it upward from the cup slot 25, pushing the cup to a height that is easy to pick up. The buffer pad 26 prevents the cup lid from being damaged by collision. The user can open the installation door 4 to take away the beverage. After taking it, the magnetic lid door 11 is closed, and the lid door latch 12 automatically reinforces the seal. The rubber buffer strip 22 reduces collisions. In low-temperature environments, the heating wire 24 is automatically activated to prevent condensation on the door from affecting opening and closing. The counting module 29 counts the number of cups in real time, making it convenient for staff to replenish cups in time. When the device is not used for a long time, the installation door 4 can be opened periodically to clean and maintain the inside of the device, check the operation status of the magnetic structure, transmission rod 17 and sensor, and ensure the stable use of the door opening device.
[0051] The above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
