Detailed Description

Embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The following examples are only for illustrating the technical solutions of the present invention more clearly, and therefore are only examples, and the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereby.

Fig. 1 is a functional block diagram of a cabinet 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention; fig. 2 is a schematic perspective view of a meal taking cabinet 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention. As shown in fig. 1 and 2, the meal taking cabinet 100 comprises a cabinet 10 having a storage space 101 and a cabinet door 20 mounted on the cabinet 10. The cabinet door 20 is used to open and close the meal access window of the storage space 101. The number of the storage space 101 and the cabinet door 20 is not limited, and may be one or more, but is usually an even number.

The cabinet 100 also includes a drive assembly 60 disposed on the cabinet 10. The driving assembly 60 is used for driving the cabinet door 20 to open or close the meal taking window of the storage space 101. The selection of the driving assembly 60 is closely related to the opening and closing mode of the cabinet door 20, for example, when the cabinet door 20 is selected as a turnover door similar to a vertical hinged door commonly used in life, the driving assembly 60 is selected as a turnover door driver; for another example, when the cabinet door 20 is selected as a sliding door, the driving assembly 60 is selected as a sliding door driver. Since the cabinet door 20 and the driving assembly 60 are products well known to those skilled in the art, they will not be described in detail for the sake of brevity.

The meal fetching cabinet 100 comprises a sensing module 51 arranged on the cabinet body 10 of the meal fetching cabinet 100. The sensing signal of the sensing module 51 can generate a first predetermined change when the meal in the storage space 101 is taken away, and can also generate a second predetermined change when the meal is put into the storage space. In this embodiment, the sensing module 51 is an infrared distance measuring sensor or a retransmission sensor. Wherein the infrared ranging sensor is disposed at the top, bottom or side of the storage space 101. For example, when the meal is not put into the storage space 101, the sensing signal of the infrared distance measuring sensor at the top is reflected as the distance between the infrared distance measuring sensor and the bottom wall of the storage space 101; when the meal is placed in the storage space 101, the detection value of the sensing signal of the top infrared distance measuring sensor is first decreased and then stabilized (i.e. a second predetermined change), and the stabilized sensing signal reflects the distance between the sensing signal and the meal, for example, the control module 52 can determine that the second predetermined change is generated when determining that the detection value of the infrared distance measuring sensor is less than a set threshold (should be selected as an intermediate value in the change process); when the meal is taken out from the storage space 101, the sensing signal of the top infrared distance measuring sensor becomes larger and then stabilizes (i.e. the first predetermined change), and the stabilized sensing signal reflects the distance between the sensing signal and the bottom wall of the storage space 101, for example, the control module 52 can determine that the first predetermined change has occurred when it determines that the sensing value of the infrared distance measuring sensor is larger than the set threshold (should be selected as the middle value of the change process). The load cell is disposed at the bottom of the storage space 101. When the meal is not placed in the storage space 101, the sensing signal of the weighing sensor reflects that no matter is weighed, namely zero; when the meal is put into the storage space 101, the detection value of the sensing signal of the weighing sensor is increased and then stabilized (i.e. a second predetermined change), the stabilized sensing signal reflects the weight of the meal, and the control module 52 can determine that the second predetermined change is generated when the control module determines that the detection value of the infrared distance measuring sensor is greater than a set threshold value X (0 < X < weight of the meal); when the meal is taken out from the storage space 101, the sensing signal of the weighing sensor is first decreased and then stabilized (i.e. the first predetermined change), and the stabilized sensing signal reflects that no product is weighed, for example, the control module 52 can determine that the second predetermined change is generated when it determines that the detection value of the infrared distance measuring sensor is close to zero (e.g. 1-5 g).

As shown in fig. 1, the fetch cabinet 100 also includes a signal module 55. The signal module 55 includes a switch module and/or a wireless communication module. When the signal module 55 only includes a switch module such as a touch switch or a button switch, a customer can operate the signal module 55 by a trigger action such as clicking or pressing to generate an on signal. When the signal module 55 only includes a Wi-Fi module, a bluetooth module, or other wireless communication modules, the customer can send an opening instruction to the signal module 55 through a mobile phone, a tablet computer, or other intelligent terminal, so that the opening signal is sent to the control module 52 after receiving the instruction. When the signal module 55 includes both a switch module and a wireless communication module, both of them can independently generate the turn-on signal to the control module 52.

As shown in FIG. 1, the fetch cabinet 100 also includes a control module 52. The control module 52 is coupled to the drive assembly 60, the sensing module 51 and the signal module 55. The control module 52 is configured to control the drive assembly to both open the door in response to the opening signal and to delay the drive assembly to close the door in response to a first predetermined change in the sensed signal. Therefore, the cabinet 100 has the function of automatically opening and closing the cabinet door 20, and people and customers in the store do not need to open and close the cabinet door 20, so that the workload of the staff in the store can be effectively reduced, and the consumption experience and satisfaction of the customers can be greatly improved. In the process of taking meals, because the opened cabinet door 20 is not closed immediately and is delayed to be closed (for example, 10s, 30s or 1min), a certain time is left for a customer to take meals, and the risk that the customer is injured by the closed cabinet door 20 in the process of taking meals is effectively reduced. It should be noted that the control module 52 generally includes a programmable logic control module system (such as a PLC or a CPU), a memory, an electronic component connected to the programmable logic control module, and the like, which are well known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail herein.

As shown in FIG. 1, the fetch cabinet 100 also includes a detection module 54 coupled to the control module 52. The detection area of the detection module 54 is closer to the cabinet door 20 than the sensing area of the sensing module 51. The detection module 54 is used to detect whether an obstacle (e.g., an arm) enters the detection area of the storage space 101, and the detection signal generated by the detection module can be changed in advance when the obstacle enters the detection area. The control module 52 prevents the drive assembly from closing the opened cabinet door 20 in response to a predicted change in the detection signal to provide a pinch protection function. The detection module 54 is an infrared distance measurement sensor, an infrared temperature measurement sensor, or a photoelectric switch sensor. When the detecting module 54 is an infrared distance measuring sensor, the predicted change is a change when the infrared distance measuring sensor generates more than an error change, for example, the control module determines that the predicted change is generated when it determines that the detected value of the infrared distance measuring sensor is lower than a set threshold (which should be selected as an intermediate value of the change process). When the detection module 54 is an infrared temperature measurement sensor, the predicted change is a change generated by the infrared temperature measurement sensor in a process that the detection temperature of the infrared temperature measurement sensor changes first and then stabilizes at about 37 degrees, for example, the control module determines that the predicted change is generated when the control module determines that the detection value of the infrared temperature measurement sensor is 36-38 degrees. When the detection module 54 is a photoelectric switch sensor, the predicted change is a change from the presence to the absence of the detection signal of the photoelectric switch sensor, for example, the control module determines that the predicted change has occurred when it determines that the detection value of the photoelectric switch sensor is approximately 0.

The snack cabinet 100 further includes a meal item seating reminder module 53 coupled to the control module 52. The meal in-position reminding module 53 is an indicator light, a speaker and/or a display screen arranged on the cabinet 10. The control module 52 can both turn on the reminding function of the food in-place reminding module 53 in response to the second predetermined change of the sensing signal of the sensing module 51 and turn off the reminding function of the food in-place reminding module 53 in response to the first predetermined change of the sensing signal of the sensing module 51. Wherein the reminding function of the indicator light is selected to be in a lighting state; the reminding function of the loudspeaker is selected as a broadcasting language, for example, a voice frequency of 'the cabinet door is opened' is broadcasted; the reminding function of the display screen is selected to display a reminding mark, for example, a character of 'the cabinet door is opened'. It should be noted that, if the indicator lights arranged in an array are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence with the cabinet doors 20 arranged in an array, the lighted indicator lights have a positioning and guiding function besides a function of reminding the cabinet doors of being opened, so as to guide a customer to quickly find the storage space 101 where the personal dinning items are located. Similarly, the speaker or display may also add a function to the cabinet door features (e.g., numbering) to accomplish the same purpose.

In the present embodiment, the cabinet door 20 is configured such that the cabinet door 20 can be turned in a predetermined direction with respect to the cabinet 10 to open the meal taking window of the storage space 101, and can be turned in a reverse direction with respect to the cabinet 10 to close the meal taking window of the storage space 101, wherein the predetermined direction is from bottom to top or from top to bottom. Wherein, cabinet door 20 both can select to be the upset door, and the hinge of this upset door is for extending along left right direction to guarantee that cabinet door 20 can turn over in the upper and lower direction, also can select for can turn over can inside gliding cabinet door again, but its hinge also extends along left right direction, in order to guarantee that cabinet door 20 can turn over in the upper and lower direction. Compare with the cabinet door of left right direction upset among the prior art, the cabinet door 20 of upset is difficult for taking place the slope under the action of gravity, even if also be difficult for causing the hinge wearing and tearing uneven after frequent use, so be difficult for appearing the condition of serious slope more, therefore can effectively reduce consequently and to the influence of cabinet door and tool to lock's sensitivity production. It should be noted that the snack cabinet 100 of the present embodiment may include a lock for locking the cabinet door 20, or may not include a lock for locking the cabinet door 20.
