It becomes possible to do.

  In addition, according to the vending machine, since the lower back sheet metal body 77 is provided so as to cover the periphery of the product outlet 72, the product delivered from the product storage 20 to the product shooter 46 has collided. Even if it is a case, there is no fear of damaging the door main body 73 that is a heat insulating material, and a sufficient heat insulating function can always be ensured, resulting in an increase in power consumption due to damage to the door main body 73. There is no fear of inviting.

  Further, according to the vending machine, the back flange 78b is provided on the product exit frame 78 of the inner door 70, and the back flange 78b is superposed on the lower back sheet metal body 77. Even when the frame 78 collides with the frame 78, the dropout can be effectively prevented.

  Furthermore, according to the vending machine, the front surface of the door body 73 is not exposed, and the lower front sheet metal body 75 is provided. Therefore, even if a malicious person inserts a hand from the product outlet 61, the inner door There is no risk of 70 being easily destroyed. In addition, since the anti-theft part 80 protruding from the lower side edge of the product outlet 72 to the front of the lower front sheet metal body 75 with the reinforcing member 81 interposed in the lower front sheet metal body 75 is provided. Even if there is a thing that tries to insert a hand along the front surface of the inner door 70 from the product outlet 61, the operation can be surely disturbed, and the anti-theft property can be maintained.

  In the above-described embodiment, since the sheet metal body divided vertically is provided on the front surface of the inner door, not only the weight can be reduced and the manufacturing cost can be reduced, but also the portion where the door body is exposed is removed. It can also be used as a whiteboard. However, it is not always necessary to divide the sheet metal body, and the front surface of the inner door may be covered with one sheet metal body.
