According to the drawings, the cigarette discharging device A of the present invention includes an outer case 1, several selection buttons 11 installed on the front side of the outer case 1, and a currency exchange dedicated to a currency exchange function among these buttons. It has a button 18, the cigarette outlet 13 consisting of a hinged cover 12 in the lower front, a coin and bill input port 14, 16, the return lever 15, the change outlet 17 And a cigarette withdrawal box (31) communicating with the outlet (13) of the case (1) inside the outer case (1), and storing the cigarette in a blow-waiting state in the case (1). In order to install several upright bars 32 in the vertical direction, the loading means 3 installed upright in the front narrow width and the rear wide width and the cigarettes installed in the lower portion of the loading means 3 are pushed forward to take out the tobacco. It consists of an input device 2 for injecting tobacco into the box 31.

Specifically, the input device 2 is the casing 20, the gear box 21 installed on one side of the casing 20, and the primary push lever (19) interlocking with the main gear 22 of the gear box 21 ( 23), the secondary push lever 24 for pushing back the cigarette moved a certain distance from the primary push lever 23, and the detection lever 25 for detecting whether the cigarette discharged.

As shown in FIG. 8, the power operation system B determines whether a coin is input, whether a coin is inserted, whether a cigarette is selected, and whether it is exchanged, and then commands the cigarette output device and the coin discharge device, respectively. A recognition unit for recognizing whether coins and banknotes are inserted, a comparison unit for determining the discharge change by comparing the amount of the recognized coins and banknotes with the amount set by the cigarette selection button, and determining whether to convert the change and the cigarette output after the comparison. It consists of an output part which transmits an output signal, and a switching means.

The change discharge device 4 is built up directly below the primary stacking hopper 41 and the hopper 41, and pushes coins while rotating a certain angle according to the change while several coin storage holes 43 rotate. The rotating discharge means 42, the discharge outlet 44 for discharging coins by the rotary discharge means 42, the contact projection 48 in contact with the discharge of coins, and the contact projection 48 interlocked with The counting sensor 47, the drive motor 45, and the support frame 46 for counting the number of coins discharged by acting as a blocking pulse by the repeated movement of the flow 49 and the flow 49 to act as a blocking pulse. Is done.

Referring to the operation process together with the method of using the sales device of the present invention made as described above are as follows.

First, the operation process by the automatic cigarette sales system, as shown in Figure 9a attached to the first coin or banknote into the coin or banknote 14 when the coin or bill inserted into the recognition unit of the operating system (B) and the CPU The amount of coins and banknotes recognized by and the amount set by the cigarette selection button is compared to determine the amount of change and then the change is discharged from the discharging device (4). To drive the drive motor of the input device 2 is to operate the cigarette discharge device (A).

In addition, in the tobacco sales system using the storefront counting method as shown in FIG. 9-2, when a customer who purchases a cigarette gives the store owner money, the storekeeper sets a deposit amount using a wired or wireless remote control. The CPU automatically converts the difference according to the cigarette price through the remnant discharging device and simultaneously selects cigarettes into the outlet box.

In addition, if the system is implemented as a desk as needed, if the owner enters the amount received from the customer with a remote control and then enters the cigarette type, C.P.U will automatically convert it to discharge the change and selected cigarettes.

Modifications to such a system may be modified within the technical scope of the present invention, and in all cases the tobacco sales system which is modified is included in the claims of the present invention.

Hereinafter, the tobacco discharging process described above and illustrated in the input device drawings of FIGS. 5A, 5B, and 5C will be described.

As the drive motor driven by the switching device, the gear box 21 is driven to drive the main gear 22-1, and then the first driven gear 22-2 is driven, and the first driven gear 22-2 is driven. The first push lever 23 connected to the first push lever 23 is rotated to push out the loaded cigarette 5, and the cigarette 5 moved a certain distance from the first push lever 23 is the detection lever 25 and the second push lever. In close proximity to 24, the sensing lever 25 transmits the cigarette discharge situation to the power supply operating system B and at the same time completes the discharge of the final cigarette as the secondary push lever 24.

Of course, the operation of several selection buttons 11 installed on the front side of the outer case 1 is performed in advance to select the type of cigarette, and after the exchange of change such as change according to the selected type of cigarette, The discharge operation is made.

The cigarette is withdrawn through the cigarette outlet 13 made of a hinged cover 12 at the lower front of the present invention case (1).

Hereinafter, the above described process of discharging the change will be described by the change discharge device of FIG. 7.

The change in the discharge device 4 is to be discharged as much as the corresponding amount according to the control of the power operation system (B), the number built up directly below the hopper 41 while the primary loading hopper 41 is rotated. The coin is pushed out through the rotary ejection means 42 having the coin storage holes 43 to withdraw the change from the change outlet 17 and when the discharged a predetermined number, the CPU detects this by the counting sensor 47. Accurately counting the discharge coins. In particular, the present invention also has the ability to exchange the change with the money exchange button 18 irrespective of tobacco.

The present invention, unlike the conventional automatic vending device to sell only cigarettes, but also to enable the display of cigarettes and at the same time provides a sales case reinforced with advertising functions, enabling to discharge while checking the loading state of the cigarette from the front and various by type All cigarettes are to be loaded and sold in an upright state, but a change and discharge device is automatically discharged according to the input of coins and banknotes, and a cigarette-only display and sale device is provided.

In addition, according to the present invention, a separate exchange device for exchanging conventional banknotes and coins is made by automatically exchanging the required amount by pressing the exchange button at the same time as inserting a banknote using the present invention residing apparatus.

In particular, the present invention is a direct purchase method of the customer for the sale of cigarettes, a method of selecting a cigarette only after the customer inputs the amount of money through the store owner, paying the price of the cigarette to the store owner to select the cigarette and the way to discharge the change It is effective to provide various ways of selling cigarettes.
