  As described above, the interior of the vending machine body 1 is partitioned by the bottom plate portion 8 of the product storage 2 so that the space above it is the product storage 2 and the space below is the machine room 9. Therefore, the bottom plate portion 8 is provided at a position higher than the bottom portion 1a of the vending machine main body 1 by the space height of the machine room 9, and a structure for supporting the bottom plate portion 8 at that position is required. Conventionally, as the structure, a structure in which the bottom plate portion 8 is supported from below by a metal support member extending in the width direction (lateral direction in FIG. 13) on the back side of the bottom plate portion 8 is adopted. As the support member used in this support structure, a relatively thick member is used in order to make it difficult to bend and bend, which increases the cost.

  This invention is made in view of the above-mentioned problem, and the object is to reduce the cost required for parts used for supporting the bottom plate by devising the support structure of the bottom plate in the cabinet. Is to provide a vending machine.

  The vending machine of the present invention includes a product storage provided in the vending machine main body, and a partition plate that partitions the product storage into a plurality of spaces, and the partition plate is a rectangular shape made of a heat insulating material. The partition plate body and a metal reinforcement frame attached to at least one side of the front end side among the four sides of the partition plate body, and the upper end portion of the reinforcement frame on the front end side of the vending machine body The bottom plate portion is connected to the top surface portion, and the bottom plate portion of the product storage case is fixed to the lower end portion of the reinforcing frame, so that the bottom plate portion is suspended from the top surface portion via the partition plate.

  In the present invention, a partition plate originally necessary for partitioning the inside of the product storage into a cooling chamber or a heated room is also used to support the bottom plate portion of the product storage. That is, the partition plate also plays a role of connecting the top surface portion and the bottom plate portion, and the bottom plate portion is supported by being suspended from the top surface portion via the partition plate. Therefore, the L-shaped bracket for supporting the bottom plate portion from the lower side, the metal plate that is supported in the width direction and supports the bottom plate portion, or the like is unnecessary or provided on the back surface side of the bottom plate portion as in the past. However, its strength and thickness may be small, and the cost can be reduced accordingly.

  In addition, if only the heat insulating material is used as the structure of the partition plate, it is difficult to ensure the strength of the connection portion between the partition plate and the top surface portion and the bottom plate portion. Therefore, the partition plate has a metal for connecting the top surface portion and the bottom plate portion. It is necessary to provide a member. In the present invention, the metal member is kept to the minimum of the reinforcing frame, thereby reducing the cost. Conventionally, when the dimension between the top surface and the bottom plate is reduced due to the mounting position of the bracket that supports the bottom plate from the bottom side, the partition plate is compressed between the top surface and the bottom plate. However, in the present invention, the partition plate is suspended from the top surface portion of the vending machine main body, and the bottom plate portion is suspended from this partition plate. Therefore, even if the metal member used for the partition plate is only the reinforcing frame, the partition plate is hardly deformed or distorted.

  According to the vending machine of the present invention, the bottom plate portion of the commodity storage is suspended from the top surface portion of the vending machine body using the existing partition plate, so that the bottom plate portion is supported from the bottom side. The parts to be provided can be reduced in flexural strength, and the cost can be reduced accordingly.

The reinforcing frame 27 includes a belt-shaped front surface portion 27a (FIG. 4), a left side surface portion 27b (FIG. 5A) and a right side surface portion that extend substantially perpendicularly from the left and right long edges of the front surface portion 27a to the back surface side of the front surface portion 27a. 27c (FIG. 5B). The front surface portion 27a and the left and right side surface portions 27b and 27c are integrally formed.

  A plurality of vertically long slits 31, 32, 33 extending in the longitudinal direction are formed in the front surface portion 27a. These slits 31, 32, 33 are formed in order to suppress heat conduction between the left and right side portions 27 b, 27 c of the reinforcing frame 27. In addition, an attachment piece portion 34 having an L-shaped cross section (see FIG. 6) protruding toward the front surface portion 27 a is formed at the opening edge portion of the short slit 33.

  As shown in FIG. 5, the lower end portion of the front surface portion 27a protrudes from the lower end portions of the side surface portions 27b and 27c, and the front surface portion 27a is longer than the both side surface portions 27b and 27c by the amount of the protrusion. As shown in FIG. 4, a through hole 28 is formed in the protruding portion 36 of the front surface portion 27a. Further, a through hole 35 is also formed in the vicinity of the upper end portion of the left side surface portion 27b as shown in FIG. 5A.

  A packing 47 shown in FIG. 6 is attached to the front surface portion 27a of the reinforcing frame 27 along the longitudinal direction thereof. The packing 47 includes a soft portion 38 and a hard portion 39 provided on the back surface side, and extends along the longitudinal direction of the front surface portion 27 a of the reinforcing frame 27. The packing 47 is engaged with the front surface portion 27a by engaging the L-shaped mounting piece portion 39a of the hard portion 39 so as to enter the back side of the mounting piece portion 34 formed on the front surface portion 27a of the reinforcing frame 27. It is attached.

  When the partition plate 25 is attached in the product storage 23 and the front surface of the product storage 23 is closed by a heat insulating inner door (not shown), the soft portion 38 of the packing 47 is in close contact with the back of the inner door. The flow of air between the cooling chamber and the heating chamber in the vicinity of the front end portion of the partition plate 25 is blocked.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 6, a tape 37 is attached so as to cover the step between the left and right side portions 27 b and 27 c of the reinforcing frame 27 and the partition plate body 26. The tape 37 extends along the extending direction of the step (perpendicular to the paper surface in FIG. 6). This is provided in order to prevent the product storage rack from being caught by the step when the product storage rack provided in the product storage 23 is pulled out to the front side of the product storage 23 and to perform smooth sliding.

  The partition plate 25 configured as described above is a product in which the side surface portion thereof is substantially parallel to the inner surface of the side plate portions 15b and 15c of the product storage case 23 and the front end portion to which the reinforcing frame 27 is attached is directed forward. Arranged in the storage 23. In the present embodiment, for example, as shown in FIG. 3, two partition plates 25 are disposed in the product storage 23 and the interior of the product storage 23 is partitioned into three chambers. Each room is a cooling room or a heated room insulated from other rooms by the partition plate 25.

  As shown in FIG. 3, between the upper end portion, rear end portion, and lower end portion of each partition plate 25 and the top plate portion 15 a inner surface, back plate portion 15 d inner surface, and bottom plate portion 20 upper surface of the product storage case 23. A packing 29 in which two L-shaped members 29a and 29b are combined is interposed. Thereby, the flow of air between the cooling chamber and the heating chamber in the vicinity of the upper end portion, rear end portion, and lower end portion of each partition plate 25 is blocked.

  A portion near the corner between the front end portion and the upper end portion of the partition plate 25 is connected to the top surface portion 12 a of the vending machine main body 11. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 1, in the vicinity of the corner portion of the partition plate 25 by a screw 49 that passes through a through hole 35 (see FIG. 5A) formed in the upper end portion of the left side surface portion 27 b of the reinforcing frame 27. The portion is fixed to the vicinity of the front end portion of the hanging portion 51 a in the rack rail 51.

  As shown in FIG. 11, the rack rail 51 extends in the depth direction in the cabinet, and the front end portion of the horizontal portion 51 b is fixed to the top surface portion 12 a by a screw 48. The back side of the rack rail 51 is supported by a metal support member 55 suspended from the top surface portion 12a. Specifically, the upper end portion of the support member 55 is fixed to the inner surface of the top surface portion 12a by, for example, welding and extends in the width direction of the interior, and as shown in FIG. 12, the heat insulating material 15a and the heat insulating material 15d And hangs downward from the top surface portion 12a. The back side portion of the hanging portion 51a of each rack rail 51 is inserted into the square hole 55a formed in the support member 55, and the back side portion of each rack rail 51 is supported by being pushed by the heat insulating material 15d. . A product storage rack is suspended and supported on the rack rail 51.

  The screwing on the front end side of the rack rail 51 will be described in more detail with reference to FIG. 1. The portion near the front end of the horizontal portion 51 b of the rack rail 51 is the front end side of the inner surface of the top surface portion 12 a of the vending machine body 11. It is fixed to the reinforcing member 22a attached to this portion with screws 48. Further, the hard portion 46b of the packing 46 is also fixed to the reinforcing member 22a by the screw 48. The packing 46 extends along the upper edge of the front opening of the product storage 23. When the inner door is closed, the soft portion 46a is brought into close contact with the back of the inner door, and the product storage 23 near the upper edge of the front opening. Block communication between the inside and outside air.

  The reinforcing member 22a is formed by bending a metal plate so that unevenness is repeated. The lower end portion on the rear end side is bent in an L shape, and the screw 48 is screwed to the horizontal portion 22c. Furthermore, another reinforcing member 22b bent in a concave shape is attached to the back side of the bent portion on the rear end surface side of the reinforcing member 22a. These reinforcing members 22a and 22b extend in the width direction of the top surface portion 12a as indicated by broken lines in FIG.

  In the reinforcing frame 27, the lower end portion 36 of the front surface portion 27a that protrudes below the both side surface portions 27b and 27c is formed by the screw 54 that passes through the through-hole 28 (see FIG. 4) formed therein. It is fixed to the front end portion of the bottom plate portion 20. Therefore, the front end side of the bottom plate portion 20 is suspended from the top surface portion 12 a of the vending machine main body 11 via the rack rail 51 and the partition plate 25. Note that the side end portion side and the rear end portion side of the bottom plate portion 20 are connected to the side surface portions 12b, 12c, and the back surface portion 12d of the outer case 12 through the mounting wall portions 13a, 13b, 13c shown in FIG. Each is fixed by spot welding.

  Moreover, as shown in FIG. 1, the packing 52 is attached to the front-end side of the baseplate part 20 via the hard part 52b provided in the back surface side. The packing 52 extends along the lower edge of the front opening of the product storage 23. When the inner door is closed, the soft portion 52a comes into close contact with the back of the inner door, and the product storage 23 near the lower edge of the front opening. Block communication between the inside and outside air.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the rack rail 51 and the partition plate 25 originally provided for the purpose other than the support of the bottom plate portion 20 (in this embodiment, for example, two rack rails 51 and two partition plates 25 are provided. ), The front end portion of the bottom plate portion 20 is suspended and supported from the top surface portion 12a, and the side end portion and the rear end portion of the bottom plate portion 20 are fixed to the inner surface of the outer case 12 by spot welding. An L-shaped bracket for supporting the bottom plate portion 20 from the lower side, a metal plate that supports the bottom plate portion 20 in the width direction, and the like are not required on the rear surface side of the plate 20, and costs can be reduced. Further, even if the above-described components that support the bottom plate portion 20 from the lower side are provided, the strength and thickness can be made smaller than those provided conventionally, and the cost can be reduced accordingly.

  Further, conventionally, when the dimension between the top surface portion 12a and the bottom plate portion 20 becomes smaller due to the mounting position of the bracket and the metal plate supporting the bottom plate portion 20 from the lower side, Although the force that is compressed between the top surface portion 12a and the bottom plate portion 20 is easy to act, in this embodiment, the partition plate 25 is suspended from the top surface portion 12a as described above, and the bottom plate is attached to the partition plate 25. Since the part 20 is suspended, such a compressive force is unlikely to act. Accordingly, the partition plate 25 is not required to have such a high strength, and the metal member used for the partition plate 25 is a minimum of the reinforcing frame 27 provided at the front end portion for connection with the top surface portion 12a and the bottom plate portion 20. Can be. As a result, the cost can be further reduced in combination with the cost reduction required for the above-described components that support the bottom plate portion 20 from the lower side.

  In the present embodiment, the reinforcing members 22a and 22b attached to the top surface portion 12a compensate for the weakness of the top surface portion 12a (to prevent the top surface portion 12a from being bent or deformed). The bottom plate portion 20 is not suspended and supported only by 22b, but the top surface portion 12a and the bottom plate portion 20 are integrated by fixing with the reinforcing frame 27, thereby increasing the strength as a whole and preventing the bottom plate portion 20 from being bent. It is. Therefore, the reinforcing members 22a and 22b are not required to have a very high strength. For this reason, in this embodiment, it is sufficient to use a bent metal plate as shown in FIG. 1 instead of using a thick block, and the cost can be reduced. Of course, the reinforcing members 22a and 22b are not necessarily required if the strength of only the top surface portion 12a is sufficient.

  Moreover, in this embodiment, the rack rail 51 originally provided is used as a member that mediates the connection between the upper end portion of the reinforcing frame 27 and the top surface portion 12a. This uses an existing configuration as compared with a case where a member hanging from the top surface portion 12a is separately provided for attaching the reinforcing frame 27. This also prevents an increase in the number of parts and contributes to cost reduction.

  In addition, since there is no metal plate or metal film on the side surface of the partition plate body 26, the following effects can be obtained. As described above, in the product storage box 23, only the area near the lowest position of the product storage rack, which is the position where the most recently sold product is stored, is cooled or heated so as to have a desired set temperature. The side plate of the partition plate 26 has no metal plate or metal film, so that the metal plate or metal film on the side of the partition plate is conducted from the region near the lowest position of the product storage rack located in the lower part of the cabinet. This prevents heat from escaping upwards. As a result, the cooling or heating efficiency in the vicinity of the lowermost position of the commodity storage rack to be maintained at a desired set temperature can be improved, and energy saving can be achieved.

  In the present embodiment, the thin film metal film that protects the side surface of the partition plate body 26 is not provided. However, such a metal film may be provided. In this case, there is no effect of preventing the heat leakage due to the heat conduction as described above, but there is no problem in implementing the present invention.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 4, a plurality of vertically long slits 31 to 33 extending in the longitudinal direction are formed on the front surface portion 27 a of the reinforcing frame 27. These slits 31 to 33 suppress heat conduction between the left and right chambers sandwiching the partition plate 25 through the reinforcing frame 27. This also prevents a decrease in cooling or heating efficiency in the cooling chamber or the heating chamber. The effect of suppressing the heat conduction is greater when the slit width is larger, but if the slit width is increased too much, the strength of the reinforcing frame 27 is reduced. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the slit 32 in a portion located below the cooling zone or the heating zone and where heat conduction through the reinforcing frame 27 does not matter so much is reduced in width to suppress a decrease in strength of the reinforcing frame 27. ing.

  If a metal plate is provided on the side surface of the partition plate 25 and the surface of the back plate portion 15d of the product storage, the partition plate 25 and the back using the L-shaped bracket 44 and the screw 45 as shown in FIG. Although the plate portion 15d can be connected, in this embodiment, neither the partition plate 25 nor the back plate portion 15d is provided with a metal plate on the surface thereof.

  Therefore, in the present embodiment, the back plate portion 15d and the side surface portion of the partition plate 25 are connected by a strip-like connector 18 shown in FIG. The connector 18 is made of a metal material, and a rectangular hole 41 is formed at the center in the longitudinal direction. Between one end of the connector 18 and the rectangular hole 41, three slits 42a to 42c along the short direction are formed at intervals. Similarly, three slits 42d to 42f are formed between the other end of the connector 18 and the rectangular hole 41 so as to be spaced apart from each other. A plurality of round holes 43 are formed between the slit 42a and the slit 42b, between the slit 42e and the slit 42f, on the left side in the figure of the slit 42c, and on the right side in the figure of the slit 42d.

  The connector 18 configured as described above is first bent at substantially right angles along the slits 42a and 42f, and the bent portion is the back plate portion of the commodity storage 23 as shown in FIG. Each is passed through a pair of slits 21 formed through the thickness direction of 15d. And the center part of the connector 18 is affixed on the rear surface of the backplate part 15d with the tape 19. FIG.

  One of the two portions projecting to the front side of the back plate portion 15d in the connector 18 is bent inward along the slit 42e, and as shown in FIGS. 8A to 8B, the thickness of the partition plate body 26 is increased. The slit 30 (see FIG. 3) formed through the direction is passed. Further, the distal end side of the connector 18 is bent at a substantially right angle along the slit 42d from the state of FIG. 8B, and faces the side surface of the partition plate body 26 as shown in FIG. 8C. That is, the part on the rear end side of the partition plate 25 is connected to the back plate part 15 d so as to be hooked on the hooked part of the connector 18.

  Similarly to the above, the other of the two portions projecting to the front side of the back plate portion 15d in the connector 18 is also connected to the other partition plate 25 as shown in FIG. Thereby, position shift with the partition plate 25 and the backplate part 15d is prevented, and the clearance gap between the heat insulating material 15d provided in the inner surface of the back surface part 12d of the case 12 and the partition plate main body 25 can be eliminated. . Thereby, the space partitioned by the partition plate 25 can be stably maintained. Further, since a plurality of (two in the example shown in FIG. 9) partition plates 25 are connected to the back plate portion 15d by one connector 18, a minimum number of parts is sufficient.

  Further, in order to suppress heat conduction between different chambers via the connecting tool 18, a rectangular hole 41 and a round hole 43 are formed in the connecting tool 18 as shown in FIG.
