Detailed Description

For the purpose of illustrating the technical content, the constructional features, the achieved objects and the effects of the invention in detail, reference will be made to the following detailed description of the embodiments in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. In this embodiment, the upper, lower, left, right, front and rear positional relationships respectively correspond to the positional relationships of the automatic vending apparatus shown in fig. 1.

As shown in fig. 1, the automatic vending apparatus includes a rectangular parallelepiped housing 11, an opening is provided at a front portion of the housing 11, a front door 113 is installed at the opening, a goods access opening 111 and a control panel 18 for a user to operate are provided on the front door 113, the goods access opening 111 and the control panel 18 are both located at a right side position of the front door 113, the goods access opening 111 is located at a lower side position of the control panel 18, and an advertisement window or a transparent observation window is installed at a left side position of the front door 113.

As shown in fig. 2, the inside of the machine body 11 has a commodity storage chamber, the commodity storage chamber is divided into multiple storage spaces from top to bottom, a drawer 12 is disposed in each storage space, and a pulling mechanism 13 is disposed between each drawer 12 and two inner side wall plates of the machine body 11. Specifically, as shown in fig. 5, the left side wall plate and the right side wall plate of the machine body 11 are provided with first sliding bars 131 extending in the front-back direction, and a second sliding bar 132 slidably engaged with the first sliding bars 131 is installed at a corresponding position of each layer of drawers 12, so that each layer of drawers 12 can be freely drawn out of the machine body 11 from the machine body 11 or pushed out of the machine body 11 into the machine body 11, thereby facilitating the addition of commodities by a user. Of course, the specific implementation manner of the drawing mechanism 13 is various, and is not limited to the structure in which two sliding bars are matched, and may also be a structure in which a sliding rail sliding block, a sliding block sliding groove, and the like are in sliding fit through two corresponding sliding pieces.

As shown in fig. 3, the rear portion of the body 11 is also provided with an opening, and for the sake of convenience, in this embodiment, the opening at the front portion of the body 11 is referred to as a first opening 112, and the opening at the rear portion of the body 11 is referred to as a second opening 114. Referring to fig. 2, when the front door 113 is opened and the rear door 115 is closed, the drawer 12 is drawn out of the machine body 11 from the rear to the front from the first opening 112, and the user can add goods to the machine body 11 from the front. When the front door 113 of the machine body 11 is opened and the rear door 115 is closed, the front part of the machine body 11 plays a role of a vending window, and the rear part of the machine body 11 can be used as a commodity supply window, so that a vending mode of a front shop and a rear shop can be realized.

As shown in fig. 4 and 5, each tier of drawers 12 includes a drawer body 121 and a delivery mechanism 122 mounted on the drawer body 121, the drawer body 121 has a cargo passage 1211 extending in the left-right direction, and the delivery mechanism 122 is configured to push the goods out of the cargo passage 1211 from left to right.
