Traditional ways of making and vending instant beverages (e.g., milk tea, juice, coffee, etc.) by hand would be challenged by industry 4.0 and new retail business.

Vending machines are a sun-facing industry, and are an important direction of the development of the future Chinese retail industry. Along with the increasing awareness of people on vending machines, more people are also considering investment in the field of vending machines, and a plurality of enterprises want to utilize vending to improve services, so that the vending machine is convenient for life. For example, the beverage vending machine on the market is changed from the original coin-operated payment mode to the mobile payment mode, so that the beverage vending machine is greatly convenient for consumers to use.

However, current beverage vending machines remain mainly for vending a variety of non-instant beverages (bottled, filled beverages). Although some instant beverage vending machines, such as freshly squeezed juice vending machines, coffee machines, have been initially presented in the marketplace. These products have low working efficiency and no storage function, because they can only make one beverage at a time, and therefore are difficult to satisfy batch orders (6-12 cups of office afternoon tea) and cannot be docked with a catering delivery platform.

The working principle of the invention is as follows:

The consumer knows the drink information and orders through the touch screen 4 or the network;

the touch screen 4 or the network server transmits the ordering information to the controller 3;

the controller 3 sends a cup falling instruction to the cup falling device 6, and one cup falls on the cup clamping device 13 which is closed in a default state;

the controller 3 gives an instruction to the first motor 10, and drives the first rotary disk 9 to rotate by a certain angle, so that the position of the cup is rotated to the position below the valve 8 at the bottom of the storage barrel 7 for the required ingredients;

The controller 3 gives an instruction to the valve 8, and opens the valve 8 to allow ingredients to enter the cup;

The ingredients in the cup are transmitted to a pressure sensing module 15 (a pressure sensor can be adopted) through a cup clamping device bracket arm 14, and the pressure sensing module 15 transmits the weight information to the controller 3;

the controller 3 closes the valve 8 at the correct time or weight according to the weight ratio of the selected winning materials;

the controller 3 continuously sends out instructions to the first motor 10, drives the first rotary disk 9 to rotate to the next storage barrel 7 for the ingredients required, and allows the cup to accept the injection of the ingredients with corresponding proportions;

At the same time, the controller 3 can give a command to the cup falling device 6 again to start the preparation of a new cup of beverage;

When a cup of beverage is produced, the controller 3 gives an instruction to the lifter 17, and the lifting arm of the lifter 17 is lifted, so that the corresponding beverage storage unit 16 is lifted vertically;

When the beverage storage unit 16 is lifted to a certain height, the clamping groove is contacted with the short arm end of the cup holder 13, and the short arm of the cup holder 13 is wrapped by the clamping groove of the beverage storage unit 16 and applies inward pressure, so that the cup holder 13 is opened;

At this time, the beverage will fall within the beverage storage unit 16;

the lifter 17 then lowers the beverage storage unit 16 together with the beverage to the default bottom position, the beverage storage unit 16 again being in contact with the second rotary disk 11;

at this time, the beverage is rotated to the position of the material taking window 18 of the housing 1, so that the consumer can take the beverage conveniently. The second rotary disk 11 can store multiple beverages at the same time, so that consumers can conveniently and separately pick up the beverages after reservation, and the consumers can conveniently pick up the beverages only by rotating the beverage at a specific position to the position of the material taking window 18 when picking up the beverages.
