Description

Intelligent vending system with removable modularization

This creative department provides a vending system, especially a smart vending system with removable modularization.

The traditional business model of the vending machine is that the buyer can see the sample or actual product displayed by the transparent window of the vending machine, and the buyer can purchase the desired product by himself. Generally, the conventional vending machine sales method uses an automatic control mechanization method to provide various types of products. Among the various vending machines, the most common is the beverage vending machine.

Generally speaking, beverage vending machines are commonly installed in schools, sports venues, parks, stations, etc. at all levels where it is urgent to replenish moisture or to wait for a long time. The main reason is that the beverage vending machine requires less space, and only needs to be supplied with power. It is extremely convenient to set up, making the beverage vending machine very popular in metropolitan areas.

In terms of the types of beverages currently on the market, their choices Including tea, coffee, carbonated drinks, and lactic acid drinks, if the sale of each beverage is sold using a vending machine, the space available for the venue and the economic benefits of the machine cannot meet the actual benefits. It will greatly increase operating costs. Nowadays, the selection of various types of beverages has long been varied. If only a few beverage products with tastes are obtained for display and sale, it will undoubtedly reduce the consumer's selectivity, and will affect the consumer's willingness to buy, and more seriously affect the automatic beverages. Sales of drinks from vending machines.

Since the traditional beverage vending machine has only one type of beverage tray unit, such as a coffee vending machine, it only has a coffee tray unit, which can only be used for making and selling coffee, which greatly limits the types of beverages in the beverage vending machine.

In addition, for manufacturers of beverage vending machines, they need to design and develop different beverage vending machines for different beverage products, which undoubtedly increases their development costs and reduces the number of places where beverage vending machines can be installed. Therefore, it can be known from the foregoing that a vending machine that can only provide a single drink is not in line with the economic benefits of the current market.

Based on the foregoing, the related beverage vending machine industry expects to propose a new vending method for the current vending machine business model to solve the aforementioned shortcomings of the previous technology, so the existing vending machine still has considerable room for improvement and improvement. To be further reviewed, and seek feasible solutions.
