DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a vending machine fixing device for fixing a vending machine such as a beverage and a cigarette to an installation base.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art At four corners on the bottom surface of a vending machine, vertical bolt-shaped supporting legs are provided so as to protrude downward. Generally, when installing a vending machine, these supporting legs are provided. Are fixed to the installation base (concrete floor surface) via clasps, anchor bolts, and the like, thereby preventing the vending machine from moving and falling.

[0003] Further, in order to safely install a vending machine even when the installation base is inclined, for example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. Hei 9-1997.
In the vending machine fixing device disclosed in Japanese Patent Publication No. 196286, a long loading frame is set horizontally on the installation base by adjusting the height of the front and rear, and on the loading frame,
The vending machine is placed and fixed.

In this vending machine fixing device, a high position support bracket is rotatably connected to one end of the loading frame, and a vertical bolt-shaped low position support leg is attached to the other end of the loading frame. It is mounted so that it can be retracted up and down freely via the screw part, and the high position side support bracket is fixed to the installation base, and the low position side support leg is adjusted to the projecting amount via the screw part and fixed to the installation base. Thus, the loading frame is adjusted horizontally.

[0005]

In the vending machine fixing device described above, the lower position support leg is formed in a vertical bolt shape, and the lower position support leg is adjusted by adjusting the amount of downward projection of the lower position support leg. The height of the loading frame on the low position side is adjusted. Therefore, since the height of the loading frame on the low position side cannot be smaller than the length of the low position support leg, the range in which the height can be adjusted is relatively narrow, and the low position is adjusted according to the height difference of the inclination of the installation base. There were problems such as the need to change the length of the side support legs. Further, when the projecting amount of the low position support leg is increased, there is a problem that the rigidity of the low position support leg is reduced.

In view of such a problem, an object of the present invention is to enable height adjustment (horizontal adjustment) to be performed in a wide range, and to have high rigidity so that a vending machine can be more suitably fixed. I do.
