step 1: the server is provided with an installation package database for storing various vending machines and a database for storing different component version software;
the installation package database is a software installation program of the whole vending machine, and the different component software versions are software installation programs of different components in the vending machine;
step 2: the server acquires the exclusive information of the vending machine and classifies the vending machine according to the detected exclusive information of the vending machine;
and step 3: the server inquires the software version used by the vending machine terminal and judges whether the upgrading is needed or not and the upgrading mode;
and 4, step 4: according to the logic judgment made in the step 3, when the vending machine needs software upgrading, the server controls the vending machine to download the software version needed by upgrading, and software upgrading installation is carried out;
and 5: the software displays the upgrading state through a display module of the vending machine, and after the upgrading is finished, the server controls and deletes the downloaded installation package;
step 6: the server log file records the upgrading process and the upgrading result of the vending machine.
Further, the proprietary information of the vending machine includes software and hardware configuration information of the vending machine.
And further, the method also comprises a data verification process, wherein the downloaded software program is verified, if the verification is passed, the upgrading is carried out, if the verification is not passed, the upgrading is failed, and the failure information is recorded in the server log file.
Furthermore, the upgrading mode comprises an integral software package upgrading mode and a module upgrading mode, and the software module comprises a background setting software module, a payment software module, a communication application software module and a mainboard control software module.
Optionally, the server may control the vending machine to complete an upgrade process, and the vending machine may actively acquire the software package of the server and complete the software upgrade process.
Preferably, the server controls the upgrade time of the vending machine according to actual conditions.
Further, the vending machine includes a spring channel vending machine, a vending machine having a lifting system, and a boxer vending machine.
According to the method for upgrading the software of the vending machine, firstly, an installation package program and software of different component versions of the vending machine are placed on the server, the server is connected with the vending machine through the Internet, the server acquires the special information of the vending machine, the vending machine is upgraded, downloaded and installed according to the special information, a professional does not need to perform software package upgrading or component software upgrading service on the door, the efficiency is improved, and the time is saved.

Detailed Description
It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention.
The invention provides a method for upgrading vending machine software, as shown in figure 1, the steps are as follows:
step 1: the server is provided with an installation package database for storing various vending machines and a database for storing different component version software;
the installation package database is a software installation program of the whole vending machine, and the different component software versions are software installation programs of different components in the vending machine;
step 2: the server acquires the exclusive information of the vending machine and classifies the vending machine according to the detected exclusive information of the vending machine;
and step 3: the server inquires the software version used by the vending machine terminal and judges whether the upgrading is needed or not and the upgrading mode;
and 4, step 4: according to the logic judgment made in the step 3, when the vending machine needs software upgrading, the server controls the vending machine to download the software version needed by upgrading, and software upgrading installation is carried out;
and 5: the software displays the upgrading state through a display module of the vending machine, and after the upgrading is finished, the server controls and deletes the downloaded installation package;
step 6: the server log file records the upgrading process and the upgrading result of the vending machine.
As shown in fig. 2, the server is connected to the vending machine via a network, and can control one or more upgrades, and the server can control the vending machine via the specific information of the vending machine, where the specific information includes software and hardware configuration information of the vending machine.
