BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a mixing ball of a cup-type vending machine in which a powder raw material and hot water are mixed by adding a sweetener and stirred, and poured into a cup for sale.
[0002]
[Prior art]
FIG. 3 shows a configuration diagram of a conventional example. In FIG. 3, 1 is a mixing ball for mixing powder raw material and hot water, 2 is a mounting base for mounting the mixing ball 1, and 3 is a hose 10 for supplying hot water from a hot water tank (not shown) and the mixing ball 1. A hot water joint, 4 is a lid of the mixing ball 1, 4a is a hot water supply port provided on the lid 4, 4b is an inlet for powder raw material provided on the lid 4, 5 is a mixing ball body, 6 is hot water and powder raw material. A stirring blade for stirring, 7 is a stirring motor for driving the stirring blade 6, 8 is a shooter for feeding the powder raw material from the raw material box into the mixing ball 1, and 9 is a raw material for attaching a raw material box (not shown) for storing the powder raw material. Show the shelf. In the above configuration, the powder raw material charged from the raw material box (not shown) through the shooter 8 into the mixing ball body 5 through the charging port 4b of the lid 4 is supplied from the hot water tank (not shown) to the hose 10 and hot water. The hot water fed into the mixin ball body 5 through the hot water inlet 4a of the joint 3 and the lid 4 is stirred and mixed by the stirring blade 6 driven by the stirring motor 7 to be mixed into a beverage. To a cup (not shown).
[0003]
Since this mixing ball 1 is a cooking utensil, it is regularly washed with hot water. However, when the powder raw material is replenished, the mixing ball is removed from the mounting base and carefully cleaned. The mixing ball 1 is cleaned by first removing the fitting portion between the hose 10 and the hot water joint 3 from the hot water tank, and then removing the mixing ball main body 5 and the lid 4 from the mounting base 2. Then, the inside of the lid 4 is cleaned, and then the mixing ball main body 5 and the lid 4 are attached to the mounting base 2, and finally the hot water joint 3 and the hose 10 are fitted together to finish.
[0004]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
By the way, in the conventional configuration, the hose for supplying hot water to the mixing ball and the hot water joint are fitted and attached, and when the mixing ball is cleaned, the fitting portion is removed, so that the hose is repeatedly fitted and removed. There is a problem that the inner diameter of the machine is enlarged and the fitting is loosened, so that hot water leaks from that portion, or the inside of the machine is immersed in hot water due to forgetting the fitting.
[0005]
The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-mentioned problems. The object of the present invention is to provide a cup that does not have the risk of loosening the fitting and leaking hot water from the portion, or forgetting to fit and soaking the machine in hot water. It is to provide a mixing ball for a vending machine.
[0006]
[Means for Solving the Problems]
According to the first aspect of the present invention, in a mixing ball of a cup-type vending machine, which is prepared by stirring the powder raw material and hot water and pouring them into a cup for sale, it is fitted to the tip of a pipe for supplying hot water into the mixing ball. The holding part that holds the hot water joint alone is constructed by providing a member with a hole to hold the hot water joint on the side of the mounting base to which the mixing ball is attached , and the hot water joint is opened at the end of the hot water joint A mixing bowl for a cup-type vending machine that is inserted into a hot water outlet that is larger than the outer diameter.
[0007]
With the above configuration, the hot water joint that supplies hot water to the mixing ball is inserted directly into the mixing ball lid and is not directly attached to the mixing ball. Can be eliminated .
[0008]
Furthermore, the hot water joint that supplies hot water to the mixing ball has its body portion held by the holding portion of the mounting base, and is not attached directly to the mixing ball by simply inserting the tip into the lid of the mixing ball. Since it can be removed regardless of the joint, it is possible to eliminate the disengagement between the hot water joint and the hose.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION
FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing the main part of an embodiment of the present invention. In FIG. 1, members denoted by the same reference numerals as those in the conventional example have approximately the same functions, and thus the description thereof is omitted. In FIG. 1, 1 is a mixing ball for mixing powder raw material and hot water, 2 is a mounting base for mounting the mixing ball 1, and 2a connects a hose 10 for supplying hot water from a hot water tank (not shown) and the mixing ball 1. A holding portion for holding the hot water joint 3a, 4 is a lid of the mixing ball 1, 4a is a hot water supply port provided on the lid 4, 4b is an inlet for powder raw material provided on the lid 4, 5 is a mixing ball body, 6 is A stirring blade for stirring hot water and the powder material, 7 is a stirring motor for driving the stirring blade 6, 8 is a shooter for charging the powder material into the mixing ball 1, and 9 is a material box (not shown) for storing the powder material. The raw material shelf to be attached is shown. In the above configuration, the powder raw material charged from the raw material box (not shown) through the shooter 8 into the mixing ball body 5 through the inlet 4b of the lid 4 is supplied from the hot water tank (not shown) to the hose and hot water joint. 3a, the hot water supplied into the mixin ball body 5 through the hot water supply port 4a of the lid 4 is stirred and mixed by the stirring blade 6 driven by the stirring motor 7 to be mixed into the beverage. It is discharged into a cup (not shown). One end of the hot water joint 3 a is fitted into a hose from a hot water tank (not shown), the other end is inserted into the hot water supply port 4 a of the lid 4, and the body portion is held by a holding portion provided on the mounting base 2. Yes.
[0011]
As shown in FIG. 2, the hot water joint 3a may be held by providing a cylindrical body on the hot water supply port 4a of the lid 4 to form a holding portion 4c in which the body portion of the hot water joint 3a is inserted and held. .
At that time, the flange 3b provided in the hot water joint 3a is placed and fixed on the end face of the cylindrical body of the holding portion 4c.
