しかしながら、商品収納コラムでは、連結片をスペーサから切り起こすことによって形成しているため、切り起こし部分の開口部によってスペーサの商品収納側の面に凹凸部が生ずる。このため、商品通路内の商品がスペーサの凹凸部によって落下時や収納時の姿勢が乱れ、不適正な姿勢での収納により商品詰まりや搬出不良を生ずるおそれがあった。   However, since the product storage column is formed by cutting and raising the connecting piece from the spacer, an uneven portion is formed on the surface of the spacer on the product storage side by the opening of the cut and raised portion. For this reason, the product in the product passage is disturbed in the posture when dropped or stored by the concave and convex portions of the spacer, and there is a possibility that the product is clogged or unsuccessfully carried out by storing in an inappropriate posture.

本発明は前記問題点に鑑みてなされたものであり、その目的とするところは、スペーサの商品収納側の面に凹凸部を生ずることがなく、凹凸部による商品の落下時や収納時の姿勢の乱れを防止することのできる自動販売機の商品収納コラムを提供することにある。   The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned problems, and the object of the present invention is to prevent the formation of uneven portions on the product storage side of the spacer, and the posture when the product is dropped or stored by the uneven portions. An object of the present invention is to provide a product storage column for a vending machine that can prevent disturbance of the product.

本発明は前記目的を達成するために、互いに間隔をおいて対向する一対の側板と、各側板間に上下方向に延びるように形成された商品通路と、商品通路内の幅方向一端側に設けられ、商品通路に沿って上下方向に延びる通路幅調整用のスペーサと、スペーサに上下方向に移動自在に設けられたスライド部材と、一端を一方の側板に回動自在に連結され、他端をスライド部材に回動自在に連結されたリンク部材とを備え、商品通路の幅方向他端側の側板とスペーサとの間に商品を収納するとともに、スペーサを商品通路の幅方向に移動することにより商品通路の通路幅を調整するようにした自動販売機の商品収納コラムにおいて、前記スライド部材をスペーサに対して商品通路の反対側に配置するとともに、スペーサの幅方向両端側を商品通路の反対側に折り曲げることにより上下方向に延びる幅方向一対の係合部を形成し、各係合部によってスペーサとスライド部材とを上下方向に移動自在に係合している。 In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a pair of side plates facing each other with a space therebetween, a product passage formed so as to extend vertically between the side plates, and one end in the width direction in the product passage. A spacer for adjusting the width of the passage extending in the vertical direction along the product passage, a slide member provided on the spacer so as to be movable in the vertical direction, one end of which is rotatably connected to one side plate, and the other end A link member rotatably connected to the slide member, and stores the product between the side plate on the other end in the width direction of the product passage and the spacer, and moves the spacer in the width direction of the product passage. in product storage columns of the vending machine so as to adjust the passage width of the commodity passage, as well as positioned on the opposite side of the commodity passage of the slide member relative to the spacer, the commodity passage width direction end sides of the spacer The widthwise pair of engaging portions formed extending vertically by bending the opposite side, it is movably engaged with the spacer and the slide member in the vertical direction by the engaging portions.

これにより、スライド部材がスペーサに対して商品収納側の反対側に配置されるとともに、その幅方向両端側が商品通路の反対側に折り曲げられてスペーサに上下方向に移動自在に係合することから、スペーサの商品収納側には凹凸部（例えば、リンク部材との連結部）が形成されることがない。この場合、スペーサの幅方向両端側を折り曲げることにより、スライド部材と係合する幅方向一対の係合部が形成されることから、各係合部がスペーサの曲げ変形に対する補強部となる。 As a result, the slide member is disposed on the opposite side of the product storage side with respect to the spacer, and both end sides in the width direction are bent to the opposite side of the product passage so that the spacer is vertically movable and engaged with the spacer. An uneven portion (for example, a connecting portion with a link member) is not formed on the product storage side of the spacer. In this case, since the pair of engaging portions in the width direction that engage with the slide member is formed by bending both ends of the spacer in the width direction, each engaging portion serves as a reinforcing portion against the bending deformation of the spacer.

本発明によれば、スペーサの商品収納側に凹凸部（例えば、リンク部材との連結部）が形成されることがないので、凹凸部による商品の姿勢の乱れが生ずることがなく、凹凸部による商品の落下時や収納時の姿勢の乱れを確実に防止することができる。この場合、各係合部がスペーサの曲げ変形に対する補強部となるので、スペーサの撓みを防止することもできる。 According to the present invention, since the uneven portion (for example, the connecting portion with the link member) is not formed on the product storage side of the spacer, the product posture is not disturbed by the uneven portion, and the uneven portion It is possible to reliably prevent the posture from being disturbed when the product is dropped or stored. In this case, since each engaging part becomes a reinforcement part with respect to the bending deformation of a spacer, the bending of a spacer can also be prevented.

A large number of each circular arc plate 3 is arranged in the vertical direction in front of and behind the product passage 2, and a meandering product passage 2 is formed by each circular arc plate 3.

スペーサ４は、商品通路２の上下方向に延びる板状の部材からなり、その幅方向両端にはスライド板５と係合する係合部４ａがそれぞれ設けられている。各係合部４ａはスペーサ４の両端部をＬ字状に折り返すことによって形成され、スペーサ４の上端から下端に亘って連続して延びるように形成されている。   The spacer 4 is made of a plate-like member extending in the vertical direction of the product passage 2, and engaging portions 4 a that engage with the slide plate 5 are provided at both ends in the width direction. Each engaging portion 4 a is formed by folding both end portions of the spacer 4 into an L shape, and is formed so as to continuously extend from the upper end to the lower end of the spacer 4.

スライド板５はスペーサ４の一方の面（商品収納側の反対側の面）側に配置された板状の部材からなり、その幅方向両端部はそれぞれスペーサ４の各係合部４ａに上下方向に移動自在に係合している。また、スライド板５の上下複数箇所には各リンク部材６の他端がそれぞれ連結される連結片５ａが設けられている。連結片５ａはスライド板５の一部を切り起こすことによってスペーサ４の反対側に突出するように形成され、互いにスライド板５の幅方向に間隔をおいて一対ずつ設けられている。連結片５ａは縦長の略四角形状に形成され、その上下方向中央にはリンク部材６を連結する連結孔５ｂが設けられている。連結片５ａの突出方向先端にはリンク部材６を幅方向に挿通可能な切り欠き部５ｃが設けられ、切り欠き部５ｃは連結片５ａの上下方向中央に配置されている。また、スライド板５の幅方向両端側にはスペーサ４側に突出する突条部５ｄが上下方向に延びるように設けられ、スライド板５は各突条部５ｄのみがスペーサ４との対向面に接触するように形成されている。   The slide plate 5 is composed of a plate-like member disposed on one side of the spacer 4 (the surface on the opposite side to the product storage side), and both end portions in the width direction are vertically directed to the engaging portions 4a of the spacer 4, respectively. Is movably engaged. In addition, connecting pieces 5 a to which the other ends of the link members 6 are respectively connected are provided at a plurality of positions on the slide plate 5. The connecting pieces 5 a are formed so as to protrude to the opposite side of the spacer 4 by cutting and raising a part of the slide plate 5, and a pair of connection pieces 5 a are provided at intervals in the width direction of the slide plate 5. The connecting piece 5a is formed in a vertically long substantially square shape, and a connecting hole 5b for connecting the link member 6 is provided at the center in the vertical direction. A cutout portion 5c through which the link member 6 can be inserted in the width direction is provided at the leading end of the connecting piece 5a in the protruding direction, and the cutout portion 5c is disposed at the center in the vertical direction of the connecting piece 5a. Further, on both ends of the slide plate 5 in the width direction, protrusions 5d protruding toward the spacer 4 are provided so as to extend in the vertical direction. The slide plate 5 has only the protrusions 5d on the surface facing the spacer 4. It is formed to contact.

リンク部材６は板状の部材からなり、その一端は一方の側板１にシャフト６ａを介して回動自在に連結されている。リンク部材６の他端側にはリンク部材６の幅方向一端側から他端側に向かって延びる連結部６ｂが設けられ、連結部６ｂはスライド板５の連結孔５ｂに挿入されるようになっている。また、リンク部材６の幅方向他端側には長さＬ1 だけ連結部６ｂ側に突出する突出部６ｃが設けられ、突出部６ｃは連結部６ｂとの間にリンク部材６の長手方向に所定間隔Ｌ2 をおいて設けられている。この場合、間隔Ｌ2 は、連結片５ａの突出方向における連結孔５ｂの開口縁と連結片５ａの先端縁との最短距離Ｌ3 よりも狭く、同方向における連結孔５ｂの開口縁と切り欠き部５ｂの底部との最短距離Ｌ4 よりも広く形成されている。   The link member 6 is a plate-like member, and one end of the link member 6 is rotatably connected to one side plate 1 via a shaft 6a. On the other end side of the link member 6, a connecting portion 6b extending from one end side in the width direction of the link member 6 toward the other end side is provided, and the connecting portion 6b is inserted into the connecting hole 5b of the slide plate 5. ing. Further, the link member 6 is provided with a protrusion 6c that protrudes toward the connecting portion 6b by a length L1 on the other side in the width direction, and the protruding portion 6c is predetermined in the longitudinal direction of the link member 6 between the connecting portion 6b. They are provided at an interval L2. In this case, the interval L2 is narrower than the shortest distance L3 between the opening edge of the connecting hole 5b in the protruding direction of the connecting piece 5a and the leading edge of the connecting piece 5a, and the opening edge of the connecting hole 5b in the same direction and the notch 5b. It is formed wider than the shortest distance L4 from the bottom of the.

以上のように構成された商品収納コラムにおいては、商品投入口７側に設けられた幅調整機構８を収納商品Ａの幅に合わせて幅方向に移動すると、スペーサ４が幅調整機構８と共に各側板１間を幅方向に移動し、商品通路２の幅が商品Ａのサイズに応じて設定される。即ち、スペーサ４は各リンク部材６によって支持され、各リンク部材６の回動及びスライド板５の上下方向の移動により、スペーサ４が側板１に対して平行状態を保ちながら幅方向に移動する。その際、スライド板５はスペーサ４に対して商品収納側の反対側に配置されるとともに、その幅方向両側をスペーサ４の各係合部４ａによって上下方向に移動自在に支持されることから、スペーサ４の商品収納側には凹凸部（例えば、リンク部材６との連結部）が形成されることがない。   In the product storage column configured as described above, when the width adjusting mechanism 8 provided on the product input port 7 side is moved in the width direction in accordance with the width of the stored product A, the spacer 4 together with the width adjusting mechanism 8 is The space between the side plates 1 is moved in the width direction, and the width of the product passage 2 is set according to the size of the product A. That is, the spacer 4 is supported by each link member 6, and the spacer 4 moves in the width direction while maintaining a parallel state with respect to the side plate 1 by the rotation of each link member 6 and the vertical movement of the slide plate 5. At that time, the slide plate 5 is disposed on the opposite side of the product storage side with respect to the spacer 4, and both sides in the width direction are supported by the respective engaging portions 4a of the spacer 4 so as to be movable in the vertical direction. An uneven portion (for example, a connecting portion with the link member 6) is not formed on the product storage side of the spacer 4.

また、前記商品収納コラムの組立時において、リンク部材６の他端をスライド板５に連結する場合は、図４に示すようにリンク部材６の連結部６ｂをスライド板５の連結片５ａの連結孔５ｂに挿入する。その際、図７の実線に示すようにリンク部材６の所定の回動位置（リンク部材６がスライド板５に直交する向き）で連結部６ｂを連結孔５ｂにリンク部材６の幅方向一端側から他端側に向かって挿入することにより、リンク部材６の突出部６ｃが連結片５ａの切り欠き部５ｃ内を挿通しながら連結片５ａの幅方向外側まで移動し、この状態で図７の一点鎖線に示すようにリンク部材６を他の回動位置（切り欠き部５ｃの存在しない位置）まで回動することにより、リンク部材６がスライド板５に連結される。これにより、リンク部材６を幅方向に移動しても、突出部６ｃが連結片５ａにおける切り欠き部５ｃの存在しない部分に係止することから、リンク部材６がスライド板５から外れることがない。   When the other end of the link member 6 is connected to the slide plate 5 during the assembly of the product storage column, the connection portion 6b of the link member 6 is connected to the connection piece 5a of the slide plate 5 as shown in FIG. Insert into hole 5b. At that time, as shown by the solid line in FIG. 7, the connecting member 6b is connected to the connecting hole 5b at one end of the link member 6 in the width direction at a predetermined rotation position of the link member 6 (direction in which the link member 6 is orthogonal to the slide plate 5). 7 to the other end side, the protruding portion 6c of the link member 6 moves to the outside in the width direction of the connecting piece 5a while passing through the notch 5c of the connecting piece 5a. As shown by the alternate long and short dash line, the link member 6 is connected to the slide plate 5 by rotating the link member 6 to another rotation position (a position where the notch 5c does not exist). Thereby, even if the link member 6 is moved in the width direction, the projecting portion 6c is locked to a portion of the connecting piece 5a where the notch portion 5c does not exist, so that the link member 6 does not come off the slide plate 5. .

このように、本実施形態の商品収納コラムによれば、スライド板５をスペーサ４に対して商品収納側の反対側に配置するとともに、スペーサ４及びスライド板５を互いに幅方向両端側が上下方向に移動自在に係合するように形成したので、スペーサ４の商品収納側に凹凸部（例えば、リンク部材６との連結部）が形成されることがなく、凹凸部による商品Ａの落下時や収納時の姿勢の乱れを確実に防止することができる。   Thus, according to the product storage column of the present embodiment, the slide plate 5 is disposed on the opposite side of the product storage side with respect to the spacer 4, and the spacer 4 and the slide plate 5 are arranged so that both end sides in the width direction are in the vertical direction. Since it is formed so as to be movably engaged, an uneven portion (for example, a connecting portion with the link member 6) is not formed on the product storage side of the spacer 4, and the product A is dropped or stored by the uneven portion. It is possible to reliably prevent the posture from being disturbed.

また、スペーサ４の幅方向両端側を折り曲げることにより上下方向に延びる幅方向一対の係合部４ａを形成し、各係合部４ａによってスペーサ４とスライド板５とを上下方向に移動自在に係合するようにしたので、各係合部４ａがスペーサ４の曲げ変形に対する補強部となり、スペーサ４の撓みを防止することができる。 Further, a pair of engaging portions 4a extending in the vertical direction are formed by bending both ends of the spacer 4 in the width direction, and the spacer 4 and the slide plate 5 are vertically movable by the engaging portions 4a. Since they are combined, each engaging portion 4a becomes a reinforcing portion against the bending deformation of the spacer 4, and the bending of the spacer 4 can be prevented .

更に、スライド板５におけるスペーサ４との対向面に上下方向に延びる突条部５ｄを設け、スペーサ４とスライド板５との対向面を互いに突条部５ｄのみが接触するようにしたので、スペーサ４とスライド板５との接触による摩擦抵抗を低減することができ、スライド板５をスペーサ４に対して円滑に摺動させることができる。   Further, since the protrusion 5d extending in the vertical direction is provided on the surface of the slide plate 5 facing the spacer 4, only the protrusion 5d contacts the surface of the spacer 4 and the slide plate 5, so that the spacer The frictional resistance due to the contact between 4 and the slide plate 5 can be reduced, and the slide plate 5 can be smoothly slid with respect to the spacer 4.

また、スライド板５の連結片５ａとリンク部材６の連結部６ｂとを、リンク部材６の所定の回動位置では連結孔５ｂへの連結部６ｂの挿入を許容し、リンク部材６の他の回動位置では連結部６ｂがリンク部材６の幅方向他端側から一端側への移動を規制されるように形成したので、スライド板５とリンク部材６とを連結するに際し、割ピンのような別部品を必要とせず、しかも抜け止めの後加工も不要となり、部品点数及び組立工数の低減を図ることができる。   Further, the connecting piece 5a of the slide plate 5 and the connecting portion 6b of the link member 6 are allowed to be inserted into the connecting hole 5b at a predetermined rotation position of the link member 6, Since the connecting portion 6b is formed so that the movement of the link member 6 from the other end side in the width direction to the one end side is restricted at the rotation position, when connecting the slide plate 5 and the link member 6, it is like a split pin. In addition, no separate parts are required, and post-processing after retaining is not required, and the number of parts and the number of assembling steps can be reduced.

この場合、リンク部材６の突出部６ｃを連結片５ａの切り欠き部５ｃに幅方向に挿通させることにより、リンク部材６の所定の回動位置で連結孔５ｂへの連結部６ｂの挿入を許容し、切り欠き部５ｃの存在しない部分に突出部６ｃを幅方向に係止させることにより、リンク部材６の他の回動位置で連結部６ｂの幅方向の移動を規制するようにしたので、スライド板５とリンク部材６とを簡単な構造により確実に連結することができる。   In this case, by inserting the protruding portion 6c of the link member 6 into the cutout portion 5c of the connecting piece 5a in the width direction, insertion of the connecting portion 6b into the connecting hole 5b is allowed at a predetermined rotation position of the link member 6. Since the protruding portion 6c is locked in the width direction at a portion where the notch portion 5c does not exist, the movement of the connecting portion 6b in the width direction is restricted at the other rotation position of the link member 6. The slide plate 5 and the link member 6 can be reliably connected with a simple structure.

図８は本発明の第２の実施形態を示すもので、スライド板５に上下方向に延びる第１の補強部５ｅ及び第２の補強部５ｆを設けたものである。即ち、第１の補強部５ｅは横断面が厚さ方向に凹凸をなすようにスライド板５の一部を屈曲することによって形成され、第２の補強部５ｆはスライド板５の幅方向両端部をそれぞれ厚さ方向に折り重ねることにより形成されている。   FIG. 8 shows a second embodiment of the present invention, in which a first reinforcing portion 5e and a second reinforcing portion 5f extending in the vertical direction are provided on the slide plate 5. As shown in FIG. That is, the first reinforcing portion 5e is formed by bending a part of the slide plate 5 so that the cross section is uneven in the thickness direction, and the second reinforcing portion 5f is the both ends of the slide plate 5 in the width direction. Are each folded in the thickness direction.

これにより、各補強部５ｅ，５ｆによってスライド板５の曲げ変形を抑制することができるので、スライド板５の撓みを防止することができる。尚、第１の補強部５ｅ及び第２の補強部５ｆのうち何れか一方のみを設けるようにしてもよい。   Thereby, since the bending deformation of the slide plate 5 can be suppressed by the reinforcing portions 5e and 5f, the slide plate 5 can be prevented from bending. Only one of the first reinforcing portion 5e and the second reinforcing portion 5f may be provided.

図９は本発明の第３の実施形態を示すもので、スライド板５の連結片５ａにリンク部材６の回動を所定位置で規制する回動規制部５ｇを一体に設けたものである。即ち、回動規制部５ｇは連結片５ａの上部を連結片５ａの突出方向に延出することによって形成され、回動規制部５ｇによってリンク部材６がスライド板５に略直交する位置よりも上方への回動を規制されるようになっている。   FIG. 9 shows a third embodiment of the present invention, in which a rotation restricting portion 5g for restricting the rotation of the link member 6 at a predetermined position is integrally provided on the connecting piece 5a of the slide plate 5. FIG. That is, the rotation restricting portion 5g is formed by extending the upper part of the connecting piece 5a in the protruding direction of the connecting piece 5a, and the link restricting member 5g is positioned above the position substantially orthogonal to the slide plate 5 by the turning restricting portion 5g. Rotation to is restricted.

これにより、リンク部材６の回動を所定範囲内に規制することができるとともに、回動規制部５ｇが連結片５ａに一体に設けられているので、回動規制用の別部品を追加する必要がなく、構造の簡素化を図ることができる。   As a result, the rotation of the link member 6 can be restricted within a predetermined range, and the rotation restricting portion 5g is provided integrally with the connecting piece 5a. Therefore, it is necessary to add another component for restricting the rotation. Therefore, the structure can be simplified.

図１０及び図１１は本発明の第４の実施形態を示すものである。同図に示すリンク部材９は、リンク部材９の幅方向一端側から他端側に向かってそれぞれ延びる第１の連結部９ａ及び第２の連結部９ｂを有し、第１の連結部９ａはスライド板５の一方の連結片５ａに連結され、第２の連結部９ｂはスライド板５の他方の連結片５ａに連結されるようになっている。また、リンク部材９の幅方向他端側（第１の連結部９ａ側）には、前記実施形態と同様、第１の連結部９ａ側に突出する突出部９ｃが設けられている。更に、スライド板５の一方の第１の補強部５ｅには、リンク部材９の連結時にリンク部材９の幅方向一端側（第２の連結部９ｂ側）を挿通可能な切り欠き部５ｈが設けられている。これにより、リンク部材９を二つの連結部９ａ，９ｂによってスライド板５に連結することができるので、一つの連結部を設けた場合に比べ、リンク部材９の連結部分の強度を高めることができる。   10 and 11 show a fourth embodiment of the present invention.
