(21) is a lever stopper, one end of which is pivotally supported by a return prevention door (9) via a support pin (22), while the other end of the lever stopper (21) is formed in a shaft shape. The portion (22) is fitted into a guide groove (23) formed in a substantially L-shape by a quarter arc curved portion and a horizontal straight portion at positions facing both side surfaces of the case (10), and a shaft portion. (22) slides along the guide groove (23) with the rotation of the return prevention door (9). Also, the lever stopper (21) has projecting portions (2) on both sides thereof so as to abut a release bar (24) described later.
5) is formed (only one side is shown in the figure).
(26) is a spring for urging the lever stopper (21) in the direction of taking out the product (8). These parts and the like are assembled in a predetermined order, and the edge of the case (10) is clawed (2).
By engaging with 7) and screwing only one side to the boss (28), it can be easily attached to the shelf plate (5).

When the product (8) is stored in the storage room (7), the return prevention door (9) is located at the position P (shown by a two-dot chain line) in close contact with the product (8). Accordingly, the shaft portion (22) of the lever stopper (21) is provided with the guide groove (23).
Are located at K in the straight line portion. Now, in this state, when the product (8) is taken out of the storage room (7), the return prevention door (9) descends around the support shaft (20) by its own weight. At this time, the lever stopper (21)
Is urged by a spring (26) in the direction of taking out the product (8), and the shaft portion (22) of the lever stopper (21) extends from the straight line portion K of the guide groove (23) to the M portion of the 1/4 arc curve portion.
(L and M at both ends and L at the side connected to the linear portion). As a result, the return prevention door (9) stops at the position Q in the drawing, and closes the storage room (7). In this closed state, the shaft portion (22) of the lever stopper (21)
Is located on the M side from the middle N between both ends L and M of the 1/4 arc curve portion, so that the lever stopper (21) can be used even if the guest pushes the return prevention door (9) intentionally to return the product (8).
Of the guide groove (23) slides to the M side of the 1/4 arc curve portion and does not slide to the L side, so that the return prevention door (9) does not rotate. Therefore, the return of the product can be prevented.

On the other hand, the product (8) taken out by the hotel
In the case of replenishing, the lock state of the storage room (7) by the return prevention door (9) can be released by operating the lock unit (11).

In FIG. 6, (11) is a lock unit for releasing the closed state of the storage chamber (7), and (29) is a lock unit (11).
The substrate (30) is a guide lever, one end of which is fitted to the substrate (29), and the other end of which is engaged with the notch A (31) by the arm (32). Further, the arm (32) is bent at a substantially right angle as shown in FIG.

Is lowered on the side of the notch A (31). At the same time, the arm (32) also descends around the fulcrum G, and the connecting plate (33) engaged with the arm (32) descends. Therefore,
The release bar (24) descends from the state shown in FIG. 7 to the state shown in FIG. 8, that is, descends to the bottom of the vertical groove (35) formed in the case (10). The reverse stopper (21) comes into contact with the release bar (24) by the urging force of the spring (26) in the product removal direction, and at this time, the shaft portion (22) of the lever stopper (21) is in the guide groove (2).
3) It is always on the straight line side from the midpoint N of the 1/4 arc curve part. Therefore, when the return prevention door (9) is pressed, the shaft portion (22) of the lever stopper (21) slides toward the linear portion of the guide groove (23) (to a position shown by a two-dot chain line) and is returned. ) Is turned within the range of the arrow shown in the figure, and the product (8) can be replenished. After the replenishment is completed, the function of preventing the re-insertion of the product (8) can be maintained by resetting the operating state of the lock portion (11) and raising the release bar (24) (in the state of FIG. 7).

By the way, when it is necessary to change the size of some or all of the storage rooms (7) due to the expansion of the products to be handled, the above-described method is used. That is, even if the length in the horizontal direction and the length in the vertical direction change, the return prevention door (9) is positioned substantially at the center of the storage room (7) in the horizontal direction according to the storage room (7). ,
The release bar (24) changes the support position on the connecting plate (33) so that the lever stopper (21) can be pressed, thereby preventing the return of the product (8) and releasing the closed state of the storage chamber (8). Can be used as is.

When the horizontal position of the storage room (7) is changed by changing the mounting position of the partition plate (6), the case (10) itself is moved with respect to the horizontal direction of the storage room (7) after the change. By mounting the return prevention door (9) substantially at the center, the return prevention door (9) can be located substantially at the center of the storage room (7). As shown in FIG. 9, a plurality of bosses (28) and claws (27) are formed on the shelf plate (5) assuming the size of the storage room (7) to be set. The boss (28) at which (10) is located substantially at the center in the lateral direction of the storage chamber (7) may be selected and screwed. At this time, the other end may be engaged over two adjacent claw portions (27).

When the mounting position of the shelf plate (5) is changed in order to change the length of the storage room (7) in the vertical direction, the release bars (24) are arranged in each step, and the storage of the step is performed. Since the projecting portion (25) of the lever stopper (21) of the chamber (7) is simultaneously pressed to release the closed state, the release bar (24) is changed by an amount corresponding to the change of the mounting position of the shelf plate (5). ) Is changed to the supporting position on the connecting plate (33).

Referring to FIG. 10, the case where the mounting position of the second shelf plate (5) from the top is changed will be described. A plurality of pairs of circular holes A () through which screws A (12) are inserted into the panel frame (4) will be described. 13) have a plurality of circular holes A (1
3), a circular hole B (14) and a circular hole C (not shown) are formed, and when the mounting position of the shelf (5) is changed, a pair of circular holes is selected from these circular holes. Screw together. Connecting plate (3
3) The release bar (2) is provided at the same pitch length as the vertical pitch length H of the circular holes A (13) to C (not shown).
A circular hole S (36), a circular hole T (37) and a circular hole U (not shown) for supporting 4) are formed. For example, it is assumed that the release bar (24) is supported by the circular hole S (36) of the connecting plate (33) when the shelf plate (5) is selected and mounted on the circular hole A (13). In this state, when the mounting position of the shelf plate (5) is changed by selecting the circular hole B (14), the release bar (33) may select the circular hole T (37). In this manner, the release bar (24) changed to the proper position penetrates all the vertical grooves (35) of each case (10) in the lateral direction as shown in FIG. Since the protrusion (25) of the lever stopper (21) engaged with (10) can be pressed, the closed state can be released. The same applies to the case where the mounting position of another shelf board (5) is changed.
