Definitions

  • the present invention refers to an automatic dispenser of product items and of goods.
  • the present invention refers to managing systems for items, which are delivered through a xyz- or multi-dimensional selector.
  • the present invention refers to mechanical warehouses with means for showing and withdrawing items in a predetermined position or level.
  • a problem dealing with an automatic dispenser of product items and of goods is managing to take the products visible through a window, to a withdrawal height which is easy to reach and compatible with Directives foreseen for handicapped people.
  • patent US6513677B1 dealing with an improved method and an apparatus for dispensers of product as containers of beverages, with various sizes, shape and configurations, wherein the product is delivered avoiding its impact caused by fall.
  • the products to be delivered are aligned inside an automatic dispenser comprising a transparent front panel.
  • a robotized carriage moves through a rack, free form vibrations, along a plane X-Y, captures the selected product and transports it near a delivery door of the product placed at the level of a hip of a person.
  • an opening assembly for the door comprises a sliding panel assembled in order to allow a sliding movement along a vertical direction.
  • a side of the panel slides inside a channel, while the opposite side is connected to a gear composed of a pinion integral with the door and a fixed rack to allow opening the door through an electric motor.
  • a pair of limit switches are assembled on the side wall of the opening device for the door to respectively detect the open, lifted door, and closed, lowered door, positions.
  • patent US6513677B1 solves the problem of having to facilitate the withdrawal of a selected item.
  • several improvements are necessary, aimed to allow keeping environmental conditions, which are adapted to keep the items inside the automatic dispenser.
  • Object of the present invention is solving the above prior art problems, by providing an automatic dispenser of product items and of goods, comprising an automatic positioning system of selected items, which is capable of allowing to position the selected items, nearby a delivering device of the items, at a level which can be easily reached and without impact caused by fall, but which is also protected in order to guarantee a certain insulation with respect to environmental conditions outside the automatic dispenser.
  • a further object is introducing a new construction type and a new operating logic of an automatic dispenser in compliance with legislations in force regarding safety and ergonomy.
  • an automatic dispenser 1 of product items and of goods comprises at least one automatic positioning system 10 of selected items and at least one delivering device 20 of the items.
  • Such automatic positioning system 10 allows positioning the selected items nearby such delivering device 20 at a level which can be easily reached and without impacts caused by fall.
  • Such delivering device 20 comprises at least one motored door 21 sliding at least between an open position and a closed position.
  • the guiding means 22 of the door 21 are shaped so that the door 21 can close at least one opening 23 of the delivering device 20 by squashing deformable means 24 to insulate and protect the automatic dispenser 1 with respect to the outside.
  • the guiding means 22 comprise at least one first section 221 adapted to match the door 21 with the opening 23, in order to squash the deformable means 24 along the contour of the opening 23, at least one second section 222 adapted to separate the door 21 from the opening 23, in order not to squash the deformable means 24, and at least one third section 223 adapted to gradually connect the first and the second section, 221 and 222.
  • the guiding means 22 allow the door 21 to slide avoiding the slipping of the deformable means 24 and to squash the deformable means 24 only next to the opening 23, in order to avoid a slipping wear.
  • such automatic positioning system 10 comprises at least one motored anti-theft bulkhead 11, sliding at least between an open position and a closed position, to allow respectively the placement of the selected items through an opening 12 of the automatic positioning system 10 and to allow the delivery only of the selected items by closing the opening 12.
  • the automatic positioning system 10 comprises at least one anti-theft blocking device 30 to block the automatic positioning system 10 at a pre-established level. In this way, a forced movement of the automatic positioning system 10 during the delivery of the selected items, is avoided.
  • the blocking device 30 comprises at least one motored rod 31, 32, adapted to translate by means of a cam actuator at least between a closed position and an open position going to be positioned, in the closed state, in suitable recesses 4 obtained on at least one support 2, 3 ( Figure 8 ) to block the automatic positioning system 10 at a pre-established level to allow the delivery of the items, inhibiting the chance of a forced movement of the automatic positioning system 10, during the delivery of the selected items.
  • the guiding means 22 are composed of lateral guides having sliding channels of the type with variable profile to allow the sliding along the first, second and third section 221, 222, 223.
  • the door 21 is equipped with double glasses 101 and 102 assembled on aluminium profiles 103 and with plastic flanks 104 integral with racks 105 moved by motor reducers 106.
  • Proximity sensors 107 and 108 allow an open/closed positioning.
  • the automatic positioning system 10 moves through toothed belts 5 along aluminium guides 6, the automatic positioning system 10 being assembled on carriages 7, Figure 8 .
  • the automatic dispenser of the present invention allows reaching the above stated objects.
  • the automatic dispenser allows: moving and placing the automatic positioning system at the level, for example, of the spiral-shaped drawers for delivering the selected item; moving and placing the automatic positioning system at the level of the delivering device of the items.
  • the door equipped with double glasses is assembled on aluminium profiles and plastic flanks integral with racks and is moved through motor reducers. Proximity sensors allows an open/closed positioning.
  • the door moves towards the open position by sliding on lateral guides having sliding channels of the type with variable profile to allow a sliding detached from such gasket.
  • the door performs, in addition to an ascending movement, a section of horizontal movement moving away from the gasket, in order to avoid a slipping wear.
  • the automatic dispenser provides for a displacement through toothed belts along aluminium guides, the automatic positioning system being assembled on carriages.
  • the automatic positioning system is equipped with:
  • the vertical movement of the delivering device of the items such as bottles, cans, snacks, etc. allows obviating the use of an oscillating door in a reduced space, making it easy to access in order to withdraw an item inside the room.
  • the item delivery at a higher height with respect to dispensers with fixed mouth located in the lower part of the dispenser, makes its use easier, in particular for elderly people or for people with physical handicaps.
