It is larger than the width of the window 41. The outdoor window 41 is located at the center of the separated portion in the wall width direction.

  The space between the shelf 65 and the long side wall 13c is substantially the same as the space between the furniture 27 and the long side wall 13c. In this case, a space 67 between the shelf 65 and the long side wall portion 13c (hereinafter, referred to as a wall side space 67) is used to store products prepared in advance for vehicle customers, like the furniture back space 56. It is used as a product storage space. In the wall-side space 67, products may be placed on the floor, or shelves may be placed and placed on shelves.

  The store clerk space 22 is partitioned by the shelf 65 into a wall-side space 67 and a space 68 on the counter section 18 side (hereinafter, referred to as a counter-side space 68). The shelf 65 is arranged such that a side surface thereof is spaced apart from the partition wall 34, thereby forming a transmissible entrance 69 between the shelf 65 and the partition wall 34. By providing the entrance / exit portion 69, even when the wall side space 67 is used as a product storage space, movement from the counter side space 68 to the entrance / exit portion 38 through the entrance / exit portion 69, and further, the warehouse space 33 It is possible to move to.

  According to the configuration of the present embodiment described in detail above, the following excellent effects can be obtained.

  An outdoor window 41 is provided on a wall portion 13c located on the opposite side of the outer wall portion 13 with the counter portion 18 and the clerk space 22 therebetween. In this case, when the clerk moves back and forth between the counter section 18 and the outdoor window 41, the movement along the counter section 18 can be reduced, so that other clerks serving customers at the counter section 18 become obstructive. It is possible to make it difficult for the user to easily come and go. Accordingly, the store clerk is configured to deal with the customer in the store and the customer in the vehicle, and it is possible to facilitate the correspondence.

  An outdoor doorway 44 is provided in the outer wall portion 13 at a position that is side by side with the outdoor window 41, which allows entry and exit from the clerk's space 22 to the outside. In this case, if the customer purchases a large number of products or it is difficult to deliver the product to the customer through the outdoor window 41, the store clerk may take the product outside from the outdoor entrance 44 and hand it to the customer. It is possible to take measures such as mounting on the vehicle C.

  An eaves section 48 is provided on the outdoor side of the outer wall section 13 above the outdoor window 41. This makes it possible for the customer to shop without getting wet when raining when the customer rides on the vehicle C in rainy weather.

  By installing the furniture 27 for displaying products away from the outer wall 13, a furniture back space 56 that is continuous with the clerk space 22 is formed between the furniture 27 and the outer wall 13. In this case, since the furniture back space 56 can be used as a product storage space for storing products prepared by receiving a pre-order from the customer, a configuration suitable for responding to the pre-order from the customer should be adopted. Can be.

  Specifically, the furniture 27 is installed in a state in which the back surface 27a is spaced apart from the long side wall portion 13c and the side surface 27b is spaced apart from the short side wall portion 13b. An L-shaped furniture back space 56 is formed between the furniture 27 and the outer wall 13 in plan view. In this case, it is possible to secure a wide space 56 for the furniture back, that is, a luggage storage space.

  The clerk's space 22 and the furniture back space 56 were made continuous along the long side wall portion 13c where the outdoor window 41 was formed. In this case, when the store clerk goes from the outdoor window 41 to the customer in the vehicle C to get the goods from the store clerk's space 22 to the furniture back space 56 (product storage space), he or she quickly picks up the goods along the long side wall portion 13c. It is possible to go to. Therefore, it is possible to quickly deliver the product to the customer in the vehicle C.

  The space between the long side wall 13c and the counter 18 is increased by installing the counter 18 at a greater distance from the long side wall 13c than the furniture 27. In this case, when the clerk moves between the counter section 18 and the outdoor window 41 in the clerk's space 22 formed between the two 13c and 18, another clerk serving the customer at the counter section 18 may come and go. Inconvenience can be further reduced.

  The present invention is not limited to the above embodiment, and may be implemented, for example, as follows.

  (1) In the above embodiment, the clerk space 22 is adjacent only to one of the wall portions 13a to 13d of the outer wall portion 13c. It is also conceivable that it is adjacent to a pair of orthogonal walls (for example, the walls 13c and 13d). In this case, an outdoor window 41 may be provided on the wall portion 13d of the respective wall portions 13c and 13d which is disposed to intersect with the counter portion 18. However, in this case, when the clerk moves back and forth between the counter section 18 and the outdoor window 41 in the clerk space 22, it is necessary to move along the counter section 18, so that other clerks may hinder the movement. Could be. Therefore, in view of such a point, it is desirable that the outdoor window 41 be provided on the long side wall 13c opposite to the counter 18 with the space 22 for the clerk therebetween.

  (2) In the above embodiment, the furniture 27 is installed in a state where both the rear surface 27a and the side surface 27b are spaced apart from and facing the outer wall portion 13, so that a flat surface is provided between the furniture 27 and the outer wall portion 13. Although the furniture back space 56 having an L-shape is formed, the furniture back space 56 does not necessarily need to be formed in this way. For example, with regard to the furniture 27, the back surface 27a is separated from the outer wall portion 13 (long side wall portion 13c) while the side surface portion 27b is between the outer wall portion 13 (short side wall portion 13b). You may make it install in a state with no gap. In this case, only the back space 56a between the back 27a of the furniture 27 and the outer wall 13 is the furniture back space 56.

  Further, depending on the installation orientation of the fixture 27, the fixture 27 is set so that the side surface 27b is separated from and opposed to the outer wall portion 13, and the rear portion 27a is set in a state where there is no gap between the fixture 27 and the outer wall portion 13. It is conceivable to do so. In this case, only the space 56b on the side surface between the side surface portion 27b of the furniture 27 and the outer wall portion 13 is the furniture back space 56.

  Note that the furniture 27 may be provided with both the back surface 27a and the side surface 27b in a state where there is no gap with the outer wall portion 13, so that the furniture back space 56 may not be provided.

  (3) In the above embodiment, the furniture 27 (corresponding to the product display section) forming the furniture back space 56 (corresponding to the display section back space) is a refrigerated showcase or a freezer showcase. It is not necessary to use furniture that has a refrigeration / freezing function. For example, the product display section may be a product display shelf having no refrigeration / freezing function.

  (4) For example, a notification unit may be provided in the store 12 to notify that the vehicle C has stopped (or reached) in the stop space 51a by voice, light, or the like. Specifically, a vehicle detection unit that detects that the vehicle C has stopped (arrived) at the stop space 51a, and notifies that the vehicle C has stopped at the stop space 51a when the vehicle detection unit detects a vehicle. It is conceivable to provide a controller for notifying the section. In this case, the clerk can notice when the customer has come to shop with the vehicle C, and can promptly respond to the customer. The notification unit may be provided, for example, on the wall surface of the clerk space 22.

  (5) FIG. 3 shows another example of a convenience store. In a convenience store 70 shown in FIG. 3, an outer wall 73 of a store 72 provided on a site 71 has walls 73a to 73d provided on all sides, and a pair of opposed walls 73a to 73d. The wall portions 73a and 73c are long side wall portions 73a and 73c, and the pair of opposed wall portions 73b and 73d are short side wall portions 73b and 73d. Of these walls 73a to 73d, an entrance 74 is provided in the front wall 73a.

  In the store 72, a plurality of cashier counters 75 are installed so as to form an L shape, and the cashier counters 75 constitute a counter section 78. In the store 72, a store space 81 and a space 82 for the clerk partitioned by the counter space 78 and the counter space 78 are provided as the store spaces. In this case, the clerk's space 82 is a space surrounded by the L-shaped counter portion 78 in plan view, the long side wall portion 73c, and the short side wall portion 73b. A partition wall 93 that partitions a part of the space 82 is provided in the clerk space 82, and a shelf 94 is provided along the partition wall 93.

  An outdoor window 85 and an outdoor doorway 86 are provided side by side on the short side wall portion 73b. Further, on the site 71, a vehicle guideway 88 for guiding the vehicle C to the outdoor window 85 is provided. In this case, the vehicle guideway 88 has an L-shape extending over two surfaces of the store 12, specifically, each wall 73 b, 73 c of the outer wall 73.

  Also in the above configuration, since a customer who has come to shop with the vehicle C can purchase a product through the outdoor window 85, it is possible to make a shopping without getting off the vehicle C.

  (6) For example, as shown in FIG. 4, the vending machine 91 may be installed at a position adjacent to the outdoor window 41 on the outdoor side of the outer wall portion 13 (long side wall portion 13c). As the vending machine 91, for example, a vending machine for beverages may be installed. In this case, it becomes possible for the customer to purchase the product with the vending machine 91 while riding the vehicle C. Further, since the vending machine 91 is located next to the outdoor window 41, it becomes possible for the clerk to replenish the vending machine 91 from the clerk's space 22 through the outdoor window 41. As a result, the work load of the clerk can be reduced. In the example of FIG. 4, the long side wall portion 13c is not provided with an outdoor entrance that can enter and exit from the space 22 for the clerk. For this reason, there is a great advantage that merchandise replenishment can be performed from the clerk space 22 to the vending machine 91.
