Abstract
Description
es alojada en un compartimento, a diferencia de las jaulas actuales en las que para obtener una bombona llena, en muchas ocasiones, hay que manipular varias vacías. La propia máquina expendedora de bombonas guía al cliente electrónicamente en el proceso, facilitando la venta. It is housed in a compartment, unlike the current cages in which to obtain a full bottle, in many cases, several empty ones must be handled. The bottle vending machine itself guides the customer electronically in the process, facilitating the sale.
ANTECEDENTES DE LA INVENCiÓN BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
Actualmente la venta de bombonas de butano en puntos de venta concretos como pueden ser las gasolineras, que constituyen la mayoría, se hace de forma manual, es decir, tras el pago por parte del comprador en la ventanilla del establecimiento, el operario se tiene que desplazar al lugar donde están almacenadas las bombonas para abrir la jaula donde se almacenan, hacerle entrega de la bombona llena y depositar la vacía. Currently the sale of butane bottles at specific points of sale such as gas stations, which constitute the majority, is done manually, that is, after payment by the buyer at the window of the establishment, the operator has to move to the place where the bottles are stored to open the cage where they are stored, deliver the full bottle and deposit the empty one.
En el estado de la técnica se conocen jaulas consistentes en estructuras metálicas contenedoras, utilizadas para la venta de las bombonas de butano en gasolineras y centros autorizados. Tan solo se conocen este tipo de jaulas de hierro donde manualmente se apilan las bombonas, haciendo necesaria la acción de un operario para abrirlas y realizar el cambio del producto vacío por el lleno, con la consiguiente pérdida de productividad asociada y la aparición de otros problemas surgidos por la manipulación de la bombona. In the state of the art cages consisting of metal container structures, used for the sale of butane cylinders in gas stations and authorized centers are known. Only this type of iron cages are known where the bottles are manually stacked, making it necessary for an operator to open them and change the empty product to the full one, with the consequent loss of associated productivity and the appearance of other problems arisen from the manipulation of the bottle.
DESCRIPCiÓN DE LA INVENCiÓN DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
La máquina expendedora automática de bombonas de butano objeto de la presente invención se constituye a partir de una estructura metálica formada por tubo de acero similar a una estantería con una serie de huecos para ubicar las bombonas de butano. Cada hueco está cerrado por una puerta y una cerradura gestionada electrónicamente. Dentro del mismo, unos sensores indican si la bombona se encuentra vacía y si la puerta está totalmente cerrada. En uno de los huecos está instalada una puerta ciega donde se ubica el dispositivo para realizar el pago del importe de la bombona de butano, así como la paramenta eléctrica. The automatic butane bottle vending machine object of the present invention is constituted from a metal structure formed by a steel tube similar to a shelf with a series of holes for locating the butane bottles. Each hole is closed by a door and an electronically managed lock. Inside it, some sensors indicate if the cylinder is empty and if the door is fully closed. In one of the holes a blind door is installed where the device is located to pay the amount of the butane bottle, as well as the electric paramenta.
El funcionamiento parte del pago del importe de la botella de butano de la manera establecida para cada caso, entonces el cliente deposita la bombona de butano vacía en el hueco destinado a ello, y cuando se cierra la puerta de ese hueco, el circuito electrónico detecta la colocación de la botella vacía y el cierre de la puerta, entonces se abre otro hueco donde el cliente puede encontrar la botella llena a su disposición. The operation is based on the payment of the amount of the butane bottle in the manner established for each case, then the customer deposits the empty butane bottle in the hole intended for it, and when the door of that hole is closed, the electronic circuit detects the placement of the empty bottle and the closing of the door, then another hole is opened where the customer can find the full bottle at his disposal.
La máquina expendedora de bombonas de butano objeto de la presente invención puede estar construida de metal, o en una realización diferente de PVC, o bien de una aleación de metales. The butane bottle vending machine object of the present invention can be constructed of metal, or in a different embodiment of PVC, or of a metal alloy.
En realizaciones diferentes de la presente invención el pago no sólo podrá hacerse por monedas o billetes en efectivo, sino por fichas, control remoto, tarjeta, por móvil o por NFC. In different embodiments of the present invention the payment may not only be made by coins or cash bills, but by tokens, remote control, card, mobile or NFC.
En una realización diferente la energía eléctrica necesaria para la máquina expendedora es suministrada por al menos una placa solar de energía fotovoltaica. In a different embodiment the electrical energy necessary for the vending machine is supplied by at least one solar panel of photovoltaic energy.
En realizaciones diferentes se equipará la máquina de un reconocimiento botella vacía, de dispositivos infrarrojo, wifi, etc. para por ejemplo establecer un sistema de conexión con el distribuidor o el establecimiento vendedor de las bombonas, así como de un aviso cuando esté la máquina expendedora semivacía, de sistemas de control remoto, de cámaras de video, vigilancia, etc. In different embodiments, the machine will be equipped with an empty bottle recognition, infrared devices, Wi-Fi, etc. for example to establish a connection system with the distributor or the seller of the bottles, as well as a warning when the vending machine is semi-empty, remote control systems, video cameras, surveillance, etc.
También la máquina puede tener un número de huecos variable, dependiendo de la necesidad de cada cliente, y del número máximo de bombonas que permita la ley. The machine can also have a variable number of holes, depending on the need of each customer, and the maximum number of cylinders allowed by law.
