Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a lock safe in a vending machine, a money changer, or the like.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Conventionally, as an example of this type, there is an automatic lock safe described in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 55-50785.

However, this automatic locking safe is provided with a horizontal key bar on the machine body side of an automatic vending machine, a money changer, etc. On the other hand, when the safe body is inserted into the machine body side, The slide plate that comes into contact with the tip of the key rod and slides in the opening direction against the spring force of the first spring member, and when the safe body is pulled out from the machine side, The lock plate which is released from the above restrictions, rotates horizontally by the second spring member, and has a generally flat U-shaped plane that engages with the locking column of the slide plate that shields the coin window hole. And are provided.

However, the above structure has a drawback that the structure is complicated because a slide plate, a lock plate, a spring member, a support case, a key bar, etc. are required. Regarding the relationship with the clerk who collects money, even if the slide plate is closed after the safe body is pulled out from the machine side, if the slide plate is forcibly pushed in with the fingers or a tool, When the lock plate is operated by inserting the rod through the through hole for the lock key formed in the side wall, the lock plate rotates against the spring force of the first spring member, and as a result, the lock plate and the locking column are However, there is a drawback in that it is not possible to sufficiently prevent the unauthorized opening of the slide plate due to the disengagement of the slide plate.

It is blocked by the guide partition plate of 3. Further, in the second embodiment, the ball is fitted by the guide partition plate or the cylindrical partition plate.

[0010]

【Example】

 Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the embodiments shown in the drawings.

In the first embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, reference numeral 1 denotes a front opening case, and the case 1 is attached to a machine body 2 side such as a vending machine and a money changer. Reference numeral 3 denotes a coin inlet for the chute 5 formed on the upper plate 4 of the case 1. It should be noted that the portion for accommodating the safe main body, which will be described later, does not necessarily have to be in the shape of a case, and is composed of, for example, a lower plate and an upper plate that faces the lower plate with a required storage space. You may.

Reference numeral 6 denotes a safe body set in the case 1 on the side of the machine body 2. Reference numeral 7 denotes an upper lid which is pivotally supported on the upper end of one side wall 6a of the safe body 6 so as to be openable and closable, and a coin window hole 8 is formed at a portion from the pivotally supported end of the upper lid 7. Reference numeral 9 is a cylinder lock attached to the open / close end of the upper lid 7, and this cylinder lock 9 has a latch 11 that engages with a stopper piece 10 fixed to the upper end of the inner wall of the other side wall 6b of the safe body 6.

Then, in the safe body 6, a first guide partition plate 12 and a second guide partition plate 13 are provided so as to face the coin window hole 8, and further, the first guide partition plate 12 and the second guide partition plate 13 are provided. A third guide partition plate 14 is provided below the second guide partition plates 12 and 13. These first to third guide partition plates 12, 13 and 14 are arranged in a staggered manner by forming a coin guide path 15 so that the third guide partition plate 14 cannot be seen from the coin window hole 8. There is.

By the way, the first guide partition plate 12 is provided on the upper lid 7 by bending it in the angular direction (the direction of the other side wall 6b of the safe body 6), and the second guide partition plate 13 is provided on the upper lid 7. The lower end portion is bent and provided in the direction of one side wall 6a of the safe body. The upper end of the third guide partition plate 14 is rotatably supported by the one side wall 6a, and is normally supported by a support piece 16 projecting from the one side wall 6a.

The third guide partition plate 14 is rotatably supported by the one side wall 6a in the present embodiment, but may be fixedly provided.

In the above structure, the safe body 6 is pulled out from the case 1 on the machine body 2 side, the safe body 6 is turned upside down as shown in FIG. 4, and the stored coins C are inserted into the coin window holes 8. When it is taken out, the third guide partition plate 14 rotates toward the second guide partition plate 13 and closes the coin guiding path 15. Therefore, the store clerk who collects money cannot easily take out the coin C from the window 8 for coins of the safe body 6 illegally.

Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. In the description of this embodiment, the same parts as those in the first embodiment of the present invention are designated by the same reference numerals, and the duplicated description will be omitted.

In the second embodiment shown in FIGS. 5 to 9, 1A is a case, 2A is a machine, 3A is a coin slot, 4A is a top plate, 5A is a chute, 6A is a safe body, and 7A is An upper lid, 8A is a coin window hole, 9A is a cylinder lock, 10A is a stopper piece, and 11A is a latch.

Reference numeral 20 is a guide partition plate provided so as to face the coin window hole 8A. This guide partition plate 20 is formed in the shape of an inverted umbrella of an electric lamp in this embodiment. Alternatively, the guide partition plate 20 may be formed in an annular shape or a simple cylindrical shape.

Reference numeral 21 is a ball receiver having a cylindrical shape, at least the upper end of which is erected on the bottom wall 22 of the safe body 6A.

Reference numeral 23 is a ball which is fitted to the coin passage opening 20a of the guide partition plate 20 when the stored coin is taken out from the coin window hole by reversing the safe body 6A. In a normal state, the ball 23 is fitted and supported by the upper end portion of the ball receiver 21. The ball receiver 21 may be in a cup shape, a wine glass shape or the like so long as the ball 23 can be supported in a fitted state.

In the above structure, the safe body 6A is pulled out from the case 1A on the machine body 2A side, the safe body 6A is turned upside down as shown in FIG. 8, and the stored coin C is inserted from the coin window hole 8A. When attempting to take it out, the ball fits into the coin passage opening 20 a of the guide partition plate 20. Therefore, the clerk who collects the money cannot easily illegally take out the coin C from the coin window hole 8A of the safe body 6A.

In the second embodiment, as shown in FIG. 9, the lower end portion of the inverted umbrella-shaped guide partition plate 20 of the electric lamp installed so as to face the coin window hole 8A is A ball 23 may be fitted to the cylindrical partition plate 30 when the cylindrical partition plate 30 is continuously provided and the stored coin C is to be taken out from the coin window hole 8A. With this structure, when the safe body 6B is turned upside down, the coins C stored in the tubular partition plate 30 are blocked.
