1. Technical Field
The present invention relates to the vending arts generally and more specifically to vending machine delivery systems for determining whether a product has actually been delivered to the consumer after a customer order.
2. Description of the Prior Art
Currently, vending machines lack the ability to detect and confirm whether an ordered product has been actually delivered to a customer after an ordered vend event by the customer has occurred. Present methods, referred herein as the home switch method, always assume that the ordered product is available for delivery and that the product is successfully delivered upon completing one vend cycle.
However, vending machines often fail to deliver the product after the vend cycle for various reasons, including improper installation of the products by the vendor's sales representative or obstructions in the delivery path. Thus, presently, after paying for the product and a vend cycle occurring, the customer fails to receive the ordered product, resulting in the customer becoming frustrated with the vending company, affecting customer relations and vending sales.
A vending system that verifies the delivery of a ordered product using a product delivery system that sends a product from a first storage position through a delivery path to a second receiving position, a sensing system located along the delivery path that senses when the product passes a sensor during the product transition through the delivery path from the first position to the second position, and a reporting circuitry electronically coupled to the sensing circuitry wherein the reporting circuitry reports to the product delivery system when the product has passed through the sensing system.
Additionally, a vending machine method is provided for determining whether a product is delivered, the method comprising the steps of sending a delivery signal based on a customer ordering event to a product delivery system, monitoring a delivery path that the product travels to reach a product receiving location, and determining if the product was delivered to the receiving space.
The foregoing has outlined some of the more pertinent objects and features of the present invention. These objects should be construed to be merely illustrative of some of the more prominent features and applications of the invention. Many other beneficial results can be attained by applying the disclosed invention in a different manner or modifying the invention as will be described. Accordingly, other objects and a fuller understanding of the invention may be had by referring to the following Detailed Description of the Preferred Embodiment.
The present invention is a vending system that verifies that an actual delivery of an ordered product is made. If the actual delivery fails for a set number of delivery attempts, then the customer is offered one or more alternative choices, including without limitation, choosing an alternative product, or a refund.
If the monitoring system does not detect a product in the first delivery attempt in step 125 then it will not send a signal to the ordering system after the step 125. The invention allows the delivery system to attempt delivery three times or a preset option. In step 150, if the number of attempted delivery cycles is less than the preset option, then the ordering system thereupon attempts to deliver the product again in step 120. If the attempted delivery cycles equal the preset option, then in step 155 the customer is granted alternatives to purchasing the first ordered product. Step 155 allows the customer to either ask for a refund or make a selection of a second, different product for delivery and step 153 marks the first ordered product as empty.
Step 153 prevents future vend attempts for the first ordered product until the vending machine is visited by a service person. This helps to prevent cheating by a customer if the vending machine reverts to the home switch operation, and helps to prevent further tampering if tampering was the cause of the first vend failure.
If the customer chooses a refund, then the present invention delivers a signal to make a refund, in step 160, whereupon a signal is sent to the monitoring system that the order is complete in step 135 and to the monitoring system to enters into steady state calibration mode in step 140. If the customer choose a second, different product, then the present invention returns to 120 and the process proceeds as described above, until the operation is complete.
The monitoring system is comprised of an emitter arm 240 upon which are located a set number of one or more emitters 242, and a detector arm 250 comprising of one or more detectors 252 and located directly across delivery path 225 from the emitter arm 240. Emitter signals, the total of which comprise light plane 234 are sent from the emitters 242 to the detectors 252 across the delivery path 225, during both monitoring mode and calibration mode. The emitter arms and detector arms are described in more detail in
The emitters may comprise of an optical monitoring device. The spacing of optical emitters is determined by five factors: emitter size, optical diffusion, ambient light, product size and the reflected light. Emitter size and optical diffusion is fixed at the time of construction, however, ambient and reflective light may vary over the course of use of the emitter. Infrared light may be used to help to reduce these effects, however, it is clearly understood and contemplated by the present invention that other types of light sources can be used, including various lasers or white light sources.
The body 320A of the arm 310A is made of suitable material able to contain the electronic control components 325A necessary to operate the emitter, including, a power source 330A, and logic circuitry 335A. Additionally, holes 340A are provided to securely fasten and adjust the positioning of the arm 310A to the vending machine.
In step 410 an emitter pulses its signal to the corresponding detector across from the emitter, and the two detectors on either side of the detector. Upon pulsing the light, the detector circuitry determines whether the detectors detected the light from the emitter in step 415. (If the emitter is either the first emitter or the last emitter on the emitter arm, then only the detector across from the emitter and the detector on the non-wall side of the detector is scanned).
If the detector directly across from the pulsing emitter or the side detectors detects the signal in 415, then the emitter's logic circuit sequences to the next emitter in line and sends a pulse from that emitter in step 420. The emitter's logic circuit continues until after it completes the pulsing of the last detector whereupon, the monitoring system repeats the process, begins again at the first emitter until the detector's logic circuit receives a detect signal and the monitoring system receives a signal to cease monitoring.
If at least one of the three detectors fails to detect a light beam from the emitter during the monitoring cycle, then the logic circuit reports a product delivery to the ordering system in step 425. Once a report of delivery is made to the ordering system, the ordering system returns a signal to the monitoring system to return to steady state calibration mode in step 430. Otherwise, the monitoring system continues to monitor until it receives a return to steady state calibration signal from the ordering system because of a refund, if appropriate.
The calibration mode adjusts the light intensity from each emitter as necessary so that each set of three detectors serviced by that emitter receives only enough intensity, plus a small safety margin, to be active in the unblocked condition. This minimizes the adverse affects of reflected light from the emitters and allows for a wider detector aperture (which makes system alignment easier) and reduces the overall power requirements of the system. In step 505, the logic circuit in the monitoring system determines whether an order has been placed. If an order has not been placed, then the monitoring system proceeds to send a series of pulses to the first of the one or more emitters in step 510. Upon sending a pulse, the monitoring system queries the emitter's corresponding detector and each detector on either side of the corresponding detector to determine if those detectors detected the pulsed signal in step 515. If a signal was detected in each of the three detectors then the monitoring circuitry sequences to the next emitter in step 520. The emitter's typically have adjustable signal power levels associated with the type of emitter used. The calibration mode will attempt to maintain the power level at the level needed to provide just enough signal, plus a safety margin, such that the corresponding detectors detect the signal. If any one of the three detectors does not detect the pulsed signal from the emitter, then in step 530, the monitoring circuitry determines whether the emitter is operating at its maximum power intensity. If the emitter is not, then the emitter will step increase the signal power level in step 560 and re-send a pulsed signal to the detectors again in step 510. If the power intensity for that emitter is at its maximum intensity, then the detector will send an error message to the monitoring system in step 540. The monitoring system will then follow a pre-coded routine to shut down the entire vending operation, shut down the monitoring system or rely on prior art ordering systems (the home switch method) in step 550.
Apertures 620 keep the majority of the unwanted light from reaching the detection side of the monitoring system. In addition, the detectors 630 have a usable 60-degree horizontal/30 degree vertical reception angle. Light arriving at the detector at angles greater than these is rejected. Additionally, infrared optical detectors contain optical frequency filters, which reject visible light frequencies, but pass the infrared frequencies of interest. Modulation techniques, whereby the detector only responds to certain signal frequencies from the infrared emitters may also be used to allow the detectors to distinguish between the ambient light and the desired point source light frequency from the emitter.
As mentioned above, product detection may be accomplished by utilizing infrared emitter/detector pairs that can monitor and detect when a signal path is broken. In typical a vending machine's delivery paths, a set of ten infrared emitter/detector pairs are used to cover the delivery path much like a light curtain.
This arrangement is illustrated in
In the monitoring system, the infrared emitter/detector sets are controlled by a micro-controller located on the detector arm. During the monitoring mode, it is necessary to monitor each of the emitter/detector sets separately because of the potential for light bleed-over from adjacent emitters. The timing sequence for each set monitor cycle used during the monitoring mode must be fast enough to ensure that the smallest product will be detected by any one of the detectors when the product passes the monitor plane as it falls from the product storage area.
The control software further provides the vending operator an option to revert to home switch operation or to place the vending machine out of service in the event the monitoring system is inoperative. This allows the operator to choose one of two options if the monitoring system is operative: 1. to go out-of-service and thus assure that the customer is cheated since the monitoring system cannot determine proper delivery of a ordered product by home switch operation; or 2. to continue making selections available to the customer under the traditional home switch operation with the risks of non-proper delivery of product that operation implies.
The monitoring system controller printed circuit board uses flash memory to store the firmware. This gives the option to perform firmware updates in the field.
The vending system has several operating options. These may be viewed and programmed by pressing the PRODUCT CONFIG service key on the keypad located on the inside of the vending machine and pressing the down arrow until the appropriate option is reached. The keypad has an associated display device, such as an led screen or such other typical devices that allow the operator to view the code and results stored within the system.
By depressing the EDIT key, the vendor can choose between "SURE.V ON" or "SURE.V OFF". "SURE.V OFF" is chosen by the operator only if the monitoring system is not installed or if the operator does not wish it to use it at the present time. The remaining options for the PRODUCT CONFIG mode are only visible if "SURE.V ON" is selected and the monitoring system is available.
When "SURE.V ON" is selected, the operator may then choose between "OPT'N SURE.V" or "MUST SURE.V". If "OPT'N SURE.V" is selected, the vending machine operation reverts to home switch operation if the monitoring system is not operating normally because, for example, of an obstruction or loss of communication. If "MUST SURE.V" is selected by the operator, the vending machine operates only if the monitoring system is available for use for the main delivery area. (The gum and mint area does not affect operation of the main area, unless the programmer decides otherwise.) Otherwise, the vending machine becomes temporarily out-of-service until the blockage or other error is corrected.
When the operator uses the number keys to program "ANTI.JP xx", the anti-jackpot protection option against unforeseeable cheating of the vending machine's monitoring system is activated. "xx" represents the number of empty conditions that disables the entire delivery system for a time period as programmed and decided by the operator (described below). A empty condition occurs when product delivery is not detected and the customer's money is restored or returned. An "xx" value of "00" disables this anti-jackpot feature.
The assumption of this option is that very few system failures to the vending machine's delivery system occurs. If a significant number of failures, represented by "xx", do occur then it is assumed that it is because of tampering. Upon reading "xx", the delivery system is deactivated for a certain amount of time so that money can no longer be refunded because of a vend failure and to discourage a potential thief from attempting to steal either product or money.
In this condition, the vending machine either reverts to home switch operation if "OPT'N SURE.V" is active, or the system deactivates and the vending machine goes out of service if "MUST. SURE.V" is active. If in "Must Sure.V", once the programmed deactivation time has elapsed the system is re-enabled and the count towards "xx" is restarted. The total number of system empty selections, the number of anti-jackpot occurrences, and the date and time of the last occurrence are recorded as noted below.
The operator programs the number of minutes that the vending system remains disabled because of an anti-jackpot occurrence by selecting the "AJP.TMR xxM" option where "xx" is the time in minutes. If "99" is programmed, then the system remains disabled until the main door closes at the end of the next service call. Closing the main door also resets any anti-jackpot time remaining.
Certain system data can be reviewed in the PRODUCT CONFIG mode:
The MACHINE CONFIG list provides additional options related to the present invention. If the operator selects "FAIL=CASH", the customer's money is automatically returned on any failed vend. If "FAIL=CRDT" is selected, the credit is restored to the vending machine for another selection. The customer may press the coin return to retrieve his money.
The TEST list provides the test screen for the system. If the operator keys in "SV.TST xxx", the following options are provided:
A calibration value of "0" indicates a shorted detector. This normally requires a new detector assembly.
A calibration value of "1" indicates that zone could not be calibrated. It indicates a blocked or damaged sensor.
Calibration values above "A" are abnormal and may require adjustment of the alignment or cleaning of the sensors.
"SV.TST COMM" indicates loss of communication with the monitoring system, and allows the operation to check, the harness connections between the vending machine controller and the monitoring system's controller.

Green Celtic Cross
We are adding the craft to your Craft Projects.

With shiny green braids and beads, this celtic cross makes a wonderful accent for the home or a great gift for a Christian friend. Church groups can makes these beautiful crosses together.
- Wood Cross shape
- Green acrylic craft paint
- Green printed paper
- Diamond Beadlets
- Treasure Tape 8x10 sheet
- Mrs. K's Dimensional Threads #16 Braid: 009, 001C
- Mrs. K's Dimensional Threads #12 Braid: 088C, 008
- Mrs. K's Dimensional Threads 1/8" Ribbon: 015 HL, 001C
- Paint your cross. (Using a very thin coat of paint will give it a more rustic, weathered look and will allow the wood grain to show through). Allow the cross to dry thoroughly.
- Measure your cross. Ours has a raised edge, so we measured the inside space. You can leave a border on yours or measure right to the edge. Using a ruler, draw the cross shape on the back of your paper and cut it out.
- Peel the white backer from your Treasure Tape and press your paper cross onto the tape, printed side down. Replace the white liner and cut out your paper cross. With the remaining tape, cover the back of your paper cross in tape strips.
- Peel the liner off the strips on the back of your paper cross and press it firmly onto your wooden cross. Make sure any air pockets are smoothed out by pressing with your fingers from the center outward.
- Peel the red liner off your paper cross and begin embellishing with your Dimensional Threads. We created a striped border around the outside edges and then made a cross-cross pattern in the center. (For ideas, you can look at simple Celtic knotwork designs or other patterns you like. If you aren't sure what you want, it may help to sketch some ideas first.)
- Once you are finished embellishing, place your cross in a container (a pie plate or casserole dish works well). Pour Diamond Beadlets over your cross. Swirl the beads over your design to cover fully. Tap to remove the excess beads, and your design is ready for display!
Finishing suggestions: You can hang your cross just like a picture, using a sawtooth hanger. You can find these at hardware stores or in the framing department at craft stores.

Dear LG, My husband and I needed a new T.V. When we went shopping for our new T.V. we ask the sales rep. for his personal opinion. Thankfully he recommended LG products. We purchased a 55-inch flat screen LED T.V. We couldn't be happier. The picture quality is amazing. We also purchased an LG Sound Bar model # NB353OA, as well. For years we have put up with the daunting task of having to change the volume between the program and the commercials. My husband has lost a lot of his hearing in both ears, one worse than the other, caused from his work environment. So many programs, shows and movies on T.V. have a lot of background, music, and/or sound, which sometimes makes it very difficult to hear what is being said. Because of the multiple sound fields available on the LG sound bar, especially the "CLRVOICE" mode, he is able to easily hear and enjoy watching his favorite T.V. programs and shows. I can't express to you how much more enjoyable it is for both of us to watch T.V. now. As for me, I really enjoy the "UPSCALER and LOUDNESS" modes, especially when listening to my Pandora satellite radio. I realize there's a huge difference between, being hard-of-hearing, and being deaf. My husband isn't deaf but extremely hard-of-hearing. Your product; the LG sound bar, has allowed my husband to once again be able to really enjoy watching T.V. and no longer needs to ask me what is being said. When purchasing the LG sound bar our salesman made no mention to us that the sound bar had so many pre-set surround sound fields, nor what sound fields are. It may be something your sales representatives might want to mention, to future customers, especially those with hearing difficulties. I know if our salesman had of mention sound fields, and explained what they were, it would have been a greater buying incentive, especially for my husband. With much appreciation and a grateful customer. Sincerely M.Nix

This unit specs state that it has ARC. ARC is an Audio Return Channel that works off a ARC compatible HDMI port. I purchased this unit because of this feature. THIS UNIT DOES NOT HAVE AN ARC HDMI PORT. IT ONLY HAS TWO OPTICAL INPUTS AND ONE STANDARD AUX INPUT. Now I have to drag this thing back to the store. Fix your specs page LG.

Save your money!
By ADKMountaineer
from ADK Mts, NY
After only 17 months, the LG 300 w Soundbar (NB3530A) will not activate (the red light is on indicating it is powered) when the TV (LG 42 inch) is turned on. I have disconnected and reconnected everything to no avail. I checked the TV setup and it has not changed from when the Soundbar was working. It is connected with an optical connector. I am disappointed that it has died after only 17 months. If I have to replace it, I am not inclined to buy another LG product.
Great sound for the price
By sessingø
from København, Danmark
Great value for your money - both sound and setup are easy. The sound is great. Only problem is that the wireless connection to the subwoofer are sometimes lost.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

Bought this to go with my T.V. and I am not disappointed. Sounds awesome plenty of bass
Great Sound Quality
By Ace10K
from Herriman, UT, United States
The sound quality of this set-up is better than I expected. It is difficult to gauge the quality in store, but what I was able to hear at the store convinced me. When I brought it home and set it up I was blown away. It sounded like I had an expensive surround sound setup. The wireless sub was an added bonus (only needs to be plugged into the wall). I don't notice any sound loss with anything that I use this for. Playing video games with this is awesome as well. This also has Bluetooth which makes listening to the iPod or any other music player awesome. There are different types of sound features you can choose from also. If you are in the market to buy a soundbar, but don't want to spend a lot of money, but still get quality sound then this is the unit for you.
By nall
from Lincoln, NE, United States
sound quality is decent. at least until you play a game with a lot of noise like engine noise in forza... then its starts too buzz and rattle. the remote refuses too control my LG TV. and the TV remote wont control the bar. oh, and the sub-woofer started to make a repeating BOOF noise for a few min before i finally figured out what the noise was coming from, and realized it was smoking out the hole in the front like a Cheech and Chong re-run... so no thanks, wont be buying it again.
Having trouble with the wireless subwoofer
By ovbw2006
from Louisiana, United States
We have had this sound bar for about a year and have not had a problem until recently. There seems to be an issue with the wireless subwoofer. There is a loud rumbling/distortion sound coming from the subwoofer and the actual audio is barely noticeable over it. The noise is present when connected to the Portable connection and the optical input. I originally had the sound bar connected to the TOSLINK on our LG TV. I tried connecting directly to our cable box and our blu ray player and found the noise was still there. Has anyone else had a similar issue? I was researching replacing the wireless adapter card in the subwoofer, but I'm not sure yet if this is the failure.

Sound Bar does not work after 18 months
By Boston Ally
from Boston, MA, United States
We purchased this sound bar system in February 2014. We opted for LG based on positive reviews and with the thought that it would be most compatible with our LG smart TV. This past week, after only 18 months of use, the sound bar no longer turns on. We have tried multiple outlets and cannot power up the sound bar. The sound bar was plugged into the same surge protector power strip that powers the rest of our electronics and they are all fully functional. We are very disappointed with the quality of this product and will not purchase another LG.

Subsidies as Optimal Fiscal Stimuli
In the theoretical macroeconomics literature, fiscal policy is almost uniformly taken to mean taxing and spending by a 'benevolent government' that exploits the potential aggregate demand externalities inherent in the imperfectly competitive nature of goods markets. Whilst shown to raise aggregate output and employment, these policies crowd-out private consumption and hence typically reduce welfare. In this paper we consider the use of 'tax-and-subsidise' instead of 'tax-and-spend' policies on account of their widespread use by governments, even in the recent recession, to stimulate economic activity. Within a static general equilibrium macro-model with imperfectly competitive good markets we examine the effect of wage and output subsidies and show that, for a small open economy, positive tax and subsidy rates exist which maximise welfare, rendering no intervention as a suboptimal state. We also show that, within a two-country setting, a Nash non-cooperative symmetric equilibrium with positive tax and subsidy rates exists, and that cooperation between trading partners in setting these rates is more expansionary and leads to an improvement upon the non-cooperative solution.

I was born in Moscow in 1959. I live in Moscow. I use mixed media in my work: tempera, acrylic. Probably, my genes, for it was a matter of chance. I have been painting professionally since 1988 after the retirement from the Army. Before that I was an amateur artist.

Louis Vivin13 05 2015
Vivin was self-taught and a representative of naïve painting. He showed great enthusiasm for painting as a child, but his career took him in a completely different direction: he worked as a postal clerk until 1922, pursuing his art only in his spare time.[2] Eventually, he was discovered by the German art critic Wilhelm Uhde (1874–1947), an association which helped him start exhibitions and build a reputation as a serious artist. When he worked in the postal service, his job was an inspector. Once he retired in the year of 1923, Louis Vivin finally took up the full-time part of being an artist.[3] His birthplace was in the city of Hadol, France. He moved to Paris, France in the year of 1889 where he lived with his wife in the district of Montparnasse.
There is something very calming about naive art. Like when I was a kid and we played with minature cars and trucks creating our own little worlds where nothing ever went wrong.

These are the selfies of the 19th century. Vanity is not a modern invention.

Brad Kunkle28 12 2014
I find Kunkle's work interesting mostly because of the gilding. Gold or copper, I am not sure. It is mesmerizing. The paintings themselves leave me a little confused. I'm not sure what any of them are about. If you watch the video you can get a feel of his opening show. Seems like he sells very well.

He (Ben Kehoe) lives in another world. One not too far from The Family Guy. I was going to put a clip from the show in here but they are pretty crude… Ben Kehoe's work is not crude. But a little tongue in cheek. Or a least a grin. Like the Bob Newhart Show.

Quote from Ronwilliam
now in minecraft you can build houses with wooden doors and villagers will walk into the houses and basically claim them but you have toi be in creative to use the spawn eggs though
Quote from sweetx99
Does it have to be made out of a certain material?
Village Mechanics: A not-so-brief guide - Update for 1.4! Added subsection on iron farming to the iron golems section. Only ten villagers required to spawn golems (down from sixteen)! Put to rest the "facing doors cancel each other" myth!
Quote from TechdolphinIf you say plz because it is shorter than please, I will say no because it is shorter than yes.
I just made a large hall in the center of town and they all seemed to flock there at night. It had beds and everythingQuote from xbriannova
The only problem with my village though is that they like to crowd into as few buildings as possible in the night. Minecraft could use an update that introduces more mechanics into the villages and their villagers.
