Description

本発明は、粒状ドライアイスを一定量ずつ取出すための定量取出し装置に関する。   The present invention relates to a quantitative take-out apparatus for taking out a certain amount of granular dry ice.

一般小売商店、スーパーマーケットや百貨店等で冷凍食品、氷菓、ケーキ等を購入すると、保冷材としてドライアイスを同梱して手渡されるのが普通である。最近は、必要量が容易に得られること、安全上や取扱い上の利点があることなどの利便性があるところから、円筒ペレット状等の粒状ドライアイスが多用されるようになってきている。   When frozen foods, ice confectionery, cakes, etc. are purchased at general retail stores, supermarkets, department stores, etc., they are usually handed with dry ice as a cold insulation material. Recently, granular dry ice such as cylindrical pellets has come to be used frequently because of the convenience that the required amount can be easily obtained and there are advantages in terms of safety and handling.

このような利便性に加えて、相当量の保管が一度にしかも衛生的に行えるのと、昇華によるロスが少なく経済的でありかつ計量管理が十分であるなど多くの有利性を備えている点から、粒状ドライアイスを簡単な操作で、かつ正確な計量下で取出すことが可能なこの種の定量取出し装置が、スーパーマーケットや百貨店等の比較的大規模店で利用される傾向にある。   In addition to such convenience, it has many advantages such as being able to store a considerable amount at once and hygienically, reducing loss due to sublimation, being economical and having sufficient weighing control. Therefore, this type of quantitative take-out apparatus that can take out granular dry ice with a simple operation and under accurate weighing tends to be used in relatively large-scale stores such as supermarkets and department stores.

このような粒状ドライアイスの定量取り出し装置として、例えば本出願人の提案にかかるもので図7に示すものがある(特許文献1)。
この従来の粒状ドライアイスの定量取り出し装置は、断熱構造に形成した粒状ドライアイス収容室(51)の内部に、平底パン形状のハウジング(52)と、このハウジング(52)内に回転可能に収容される断熱構造に形成された円盤状の枡体(53)と、この枡体(53)の上面を覆う上面板(54)とを有する回転式計量装置(55)を収容配置し、前記上面板(54)の直上部に回転羽根状の複数本の撹拌翼(56)を備える撹拌具(57)を回転可能に配置し、この撹拌具(57)と前記枡体(53)とを同期回転可能に構成し、前記上面板(54)の周縁寄りの一部で粒状ドライアイス排出路(58)の開口個所とは異なる位相位置に横断面が部分円弧片状の粒状ドライアイス導入口(59)を開口する一方、前記ハウジング(52)における下面板の前記粒状ドライアイス排出路(58)に同軸で対応する位置に該粒状ドライアイス排出路(58)に比し開口面積が小さい粒状ドライアイス導出口(60)を開口し、枡体(53)の周縁寄りの一部で前記粒状ドライアイス導入口(59)及び前記粒状ドライアイス導出口(60)に同軸で対応する位置に粒状ドライアイス導入口(59)に対応する大きさの粒状ドライアイス計量孔(61)を上下に貫通して設け、前記粒状ドライアイス収容室(51)の直下方で粒状ドライアイス排出路(58)に対応する位置に粒状ドライアイス取出し容器(62)を前面側からの出し入れ可能に配置した構成になっている。
As such a quantitative dry ice taking-out apparatus, for example, there is one shown in FIG. 7 according to the proposal of the present applicant (Patent Document 1).
This conventional granular dry ice dispensing device has a flat-bottomed pan-shaped housing (52) inside a granular dry ice storage chamber (51) formed in a heat insulating structure, and is rotatably accommodated in the housing (52). A rotary weighing device (55) having a disk-shaped housing (53) formed in a heat insulating structure and an upper surface plate (54) covering the upper surface of the housing (53) is disposed and disposed. A stirrer (57) provided with a plurality of rotating blade-shaped stirring blades (56) is disposed directly above the face plate (54), and the stirrer (57) and the casing (53) are synchronized. It is configured to be rotatable, and a granular dry ice introduction port having a partially arc-shaped cross section at a phase position different from the opening portion of the granular dry ice discharge passage (58) in a part near the periphery of the upper surface plate (54) ( 59), while the granular dry ice is positioned at a position corresponding to the granular dry ice discharge path (58) of the bottom plate of the housing (52) coaxially. A granular dry ice outlet (60) having an opening area smaller than that of the chair discharge path (58) is opened, and the granular dry ice inlet (59) and the granular dry ice are partly located near the periphery of the casing (53). A granular dry ice metering hole (61) having a size corresponding to the granular dry ice introduction port (59) is provided at a position corresponding to the ice outlet port (60) coaxially, and the granular dry ice storage chamber ( The granular dry ice take-out container (62) is arranged so as to be able to be taken in and out from the front side at a position corresponding to the granular dry ice discharge path (58) immediately below 51).

この図7に示す従来の粒状ドライアイスの定量取出し装置は、以下に述べるようにして粒状ドライアイスの定量取出しを行わせる。粒状ドライアイス収容室(51)内に粒状ドライアイスを充填収容した状態で、回転式の枡体(53)に形成した粒上ドライアイス計量孔(61)がドライアイス導入口(59)と合致した際に、粒状ドライアイスが粒状ドライアイス計量孔(61)に流下して一定量の粒状ドライアイスを収容し、この粒状ドライアイス計量孔(61)のさらなる回転により粒状ドライアイス計量孔(61)とドライアイス導出口(60)とが合致することにより粒状ドライアイスを粒状ドライアイス計量孔(61)の容積で計量した状態で一定量ずつ取出すことになるのである。   The conventional granular dry ice taking-out apparatus shown in FIG. 7 allows the granular dry ice to be taken out as described below. The granular dry ice metering hole (61) formed in the rotary casing (53) matches the dry ice inlet (59) with the granular dry ice filled and accommodated in the granular dry ice storage chamber (51). At this time, the granular dry ice flows down to the granular dry ice metering hole (61) to store a certain amount of granular dry ice, and the granular dry ice measuring hole (61) is further rotated to rotate the granular dry ice measuring hole (61). ) And the dry ice outlet (60) coincide with each other, the granular dry ice is taken out by a fixed amount in a state where the granular dry ice is measured by the volume of the granular dry ice measuring hole (61).

なお、この取出しの場合において、前記枡体(53)の回転と同期して回転する撹拌具(57)を粒状ドライアイス収容室(51)内に配置していることから、撹拌具(57)が粒状ドライアイス収容室(51)内で回転することになり、従って、粒状ドライアイス収容室(51)内で粒状ドライアイスが架橋現象を起こすことがあっても回転する撹拌具(57)でその架橋を破壊することになる。
特開2005−331316
In the case of this removal, since the stirring tool (57) that rotates in synchronization with the rotation of the housing (53) is disposed in the granular dry ice storage chamber (51), the stirring tool (57) Will rotate in the granular dry ice storage chamber (51), and therefore the stirring tool (57) that rotates even if the granular dry ice may cause a crosslinking phenomenon in the granular dry ice storage chamber (51). The bridge will be destroyed.

この種の粒状ドライアイスの定量取り出し装置では、夜間等の営業時間外には、ドライアイス収容室(51)から粒状ドライアイスを取出して保存することで、ドライアイスの無駄な消費を抑えるようにしているが、上述した従来構造の粒状ドライアイスの定量取出し装置では、回転式計量装置(55)を平底パン形状のハウジング(52)内に円盤状の枡体(53)を回転可能に収容し、この枡体(53)の上面を上面板(54)で覆う構造としていることから、次の営業時間前に、ドライアイス収容室(51)に粒状ドライアイスを充填して、作動準備をした際に枡体(53)が回転不能になることがあった。   In this type of granular dry ice pick-up device, waste dry ice consumption is suppressed by removing the granular dry ice from the dry ice storage chamber (51) and storing it outside business hours such as at night. However, in the above-described conventional apparatus for quantitatively taking out granular dry ice, the rotary weighing device (55) is housed in a flat-bottomed pan-shaped housing (52) so that a disk-shaped housing (53) can be rotated. Since the upper surface of the housing (53) is covered with the upper surface plate (54), the dry ice storage chamber (51) is filled with granular dry ice and prepared for operation before the next business hours. In some cases, the chassis (53) could not rotate.

これは、ドライアイス収容室(51)から粒状ドライアイスを取出した際に、枡体(53)とハウジング(52)や上面板(54)との間の隙間に大気とともに侵入した水蒸気が、ドライアイスの再投入に伴う冷却により該隙間で凍結してしまうことに起因するものと考えられる。   This is because when the granular dry ice is taken out from the dry ice storage chamber (51), water vapor that has entered the gap between the housing (53) and the housing (52) or the top plate (54) together with the atmosphere is dry. This is considered to be caused by freezing in the gap due to cooling accompanying re-input of ice.

本発明は、このような問題点に着目して成されたものであって、一時休止後の再稼動時でも確実に作動できる粒状ドライアイスの定量取り出し装置を提供することを目的とする。   The present invention has been made paying attention to such a problem, and an object of the present invention is to provide a granular dry ice quantitative take-out device that can be reliably operated even during re-operation after a pause.

In addition, it is possible to suppress the wasteful release of cold heat associated with sublimation of dry ice, and to suppress the inflow of outside air into the dry ice storage room even when activities are stopped at night, etc., and freezing during re-operation Can be prevented more reliably.

さらに、請求項3に記載の発明では、枡体の下面に楔状の補強滑り台を枡体の下面に配設したガイド筒に連接する状態で形成しているので、ガイド筒がドライアイス導出口の端縁部分に当接して削られることを予防することができる。   Furthermore, in the invention described in claim 3, since the wedge-shaped reinforcing slide is formed on the lower surface of the casing in a state of being connected to the guide cylinder disposed on the lower surface of the casing, the guide cylinder is connected to the dry ice outlet port.

At the same time, this ring-shaped protrusion also serves as a reinforcing slide.

さらにまた、請求項5に記載した発明では、枡体の上面に水掃き具を配置しているので、枡体の上面と上面板の下面との間の隙間に入込んだ水分を掻きだすことができるから、この隙間での凍結を抑制することができる。   Furthermore, in the invention described in claim 5, since the water sweeper is disposed on the upper surface of the housing, the moisture that has entered the gap between the upper surface of the housing and the lower surface of the upper plate is scraped off. Therefore, freezing in this gap can be suppressed.

On the other hand, the bottom plate (13A) of the housing (13) has a granular shape at a position corresponding to the same axis as the granular dry ice discharge path (12) provided on the bottom wall of the granular dry ice storage section (2). A granular dry ice outlet (18) having an opening area smaller than that of the dry ice discharge channel (12) is opened.

また、回転式計量装置(5)の枡体(14)には、その周縁寄りの一部で前記粒状ドライアイス導入口(17)及び前記粒状ドライアイス導出口(18)に対し回転対称の位置に粒状ドライアイス導入口(17)に対応する大きさの粒状ドライアイス計量孔(19)が上下に垂直に貫通して設けられている。なお、この粒状ドライアイス計量孔(19)の半径方向での開口幅は前記ドライアイス導出口(18)での半径方向での開口幅よりも小さく形成してある。また、図3において符号(22)で示す部材は、粒状ドライアイス導入口(17)に矢印方向(半径方向)へスライド可能に当て合わせる調整板であり、粒状ドライアイス導入口(17)の開口面積を増減させて下面(13A)に開口形成されているドライアイス導出口(18)に流下する粒状ドライアイスの量を増減調節するために用いられる。これにより、枡部材を交換して粒状ドライアイスの計量値を変更するものに比較して容易にその計量値(取出量)を変更することができる。   Further, the casing (14) of the rotary weighing device (5) has a rotationally symmetric position with respect to the granular dry ice inlet (17) and the granular dry ice outlet (18) at a part near its periphery. A granular dry ice metering hole (19) having a size corresponding to the granular dry ice inlet (17) is vertically provided vertically therethrough. The opening width in the radial direction of the granular dry ice metering hole (19) is formed smaller than the opening width in the radial direction at the dry ice outlet port (18). 3 is an adjustment plate that slidably contacts the granular dry ice inlet port (17) in the direction of the arrow (radial direction), and the opening of the granular dry ice inlet port (17). It is used to increase / decrease the amount of granular dry ice flowing down to the dry ice outlet (18) formed in the lower surface (13A) by increasing / decreasing the area. Thereby, compared with what changes the measurement value of granular dry ice by exchanging a gutter member, the measurement value (extraction amount) can be changed easily.

前記枡体(14)は、その中心ボス部(14A)が枡体下面(14B)から突出するいわゆる茸形に形成してあり、枡体(14)の下面(14B)とハウジング(13)の下面板(13A)での上面との間に隙間を持たせた状態でハウジング(13)の内部に収納されるようになっている。また、枡体(14)の下面(14B)に開口している粒状ドライアイス計量孔(19)の外縁部分に断熱構造のガイド筒(23)が、その下面がハウジング(13)の下面板(13A)での上面を摺接する状態で装着してある。そして、枡体(14)の上面には棒状の水掃き具(24)が径方向(放射方向)に延設する状態でわずかに突出している。   The casing (14) is formed in a so-called bowl shape in which the central boss portion (14A) protrudes from the casing lower surface (14B), and the lower surface (14B) of the casing (14) and the housing (13) are formed. The lower surface plate (13A) is housed inside the housing (13) with a gap between the upper surface and the upper surface. In addition, a guide tube (23) having a heat insulating structure is formed on the outer edge portion of the granular dry ice measuring hole (19) opened on the lower surface (14B) of the housing (14), and the lower surface is a lower surface plate of the housing (13) ( It is mounted with the upper surface in 13A) in sliding contact. A bar-shaped water sweeper (24) slightly protrudes from the upper surface of the housing (14) in a state of extending in the radial direction (radial direction).

また、枡体(14)の下面には、図5に示すように枡体(14)の停止状態時にハウジング(13)の下面(13A)に開口形成されているドライアイス導出口(18)を覆って閉塞する断熱材製の冷気塞ぎ具(25)が前記ガイド筒(23)の配設位置と同心の状態で配置してある。さらに、枡体(14)の下面(14B)には、図5に示すように、前記ガイド筒(14)の回転方向上手側に位置する個所にガイド筒(23)に連接する状態でガイド筒側が肉厚となる楔状の補強滑り台(26)が形成してある。この補強滑り台(26)は、ハウジング(13)の下面(13A)に開口形成されているドライアイス導出口(18)の開口幅が枡体(14)の下面(14B)に開口しているドライアイス計量孔(19)の開口幅、ひいてはガイド筒(23)の開口幅(W)よりも大きな寸法に形成されていることにより、回転作動中にガイド筒(23)の下端面がドライアイス導出口(18)の端縁部で削られることを抑制するものである。   Further, on the lower surface of the housing (14), as shown in FIG. 5, when the housing (14) is stopped, a dry ice lead-out port (18) formed in the lower surface (13A) of the housing (13) is formed. A cold air closing device (25) made of a heat insulating material that covers and closes is disposed concentrically with the position where the guide tube (23) is disposed. Further, as shown in FIG. 5, the lower surface (14B) of the housing (14) is connected to the guide tube (23) at a position on the upper side in the rotational direction of the guide tube (14). A wedge-shaped reinforcing slide (26) having a thick side is formed. This reinforced slide (26) is a dry slide in which the opening width of the dry ice outlet (18) formed in the lower surface (13A) of the housing (13) is open in the lower surface (14B) of the housing (14). Since the opening width of the ice metering hole (19), and hence the opening width (W) of the guide cylinder (23), is formed, the lower end surface of the guide cylinder (23) is guided to dry ice during rotation. It is intended to suppress scraping at the edge of the outlet (18).

次いで、撹拌具(6)は、回転羽根状の複数本(本実施形態では2本)の撹拌翼(16)を径方向の放射状に回転対称の配置で備えていて、回転中心に穿設した挿入孔に前記回転軸(21)の端部が貫挿・嵌着されて上面板(15)の直上部位置に回転可能に収設される。
このように上下の関係に配置されてなる撹拌具(6)と枡体(14)とは、粒状ドライアイス収容部(2)の内底部にあって回転軸(21)の回転に伴い同期の一体に回転して、枡体(14)は粒状ドライアイス導入口(17)から一定量の粒状ドライアイスを粒状ドライアイス計量孔(19)で受取った後にこれを粒状ドライアイス導出口(18)から粒状ドライアイス排出路(12)に繰出させるように機能し、一方、撹拌具(6)は粒状ドライアイス計量孔(19)に導入される直前段階の粒状ドライアイスを撹拌翼(16)で捌かせることによって架橋を破壊するものであり、図2に示すように撹拌翼(16)の一つが回転方向(図2に矢示線で表す)を基準に粒状ドライアイス導入口(17)の下流側端部の近くに位置させることが、粒状ドライアイス導入口(17)を介して粒状ドライアイス計量孔(19)に粒状ドライアイスがスムースに導入され得る如く成す点で好ましい手段である。
Next, the stirring tool (6) is provided with a plurality of rotating blade-like (two in the present embodiment) stirring blades (16) in a radially symmetric arrangement in the radial direction and drilled at the center of rotation. The end of the rotary shaft (21) is inserted and fitted into the insertion hole, and is rotatably accommodated at a position directly above the upper surface plate (15).
The stirrer (6) and the casing (14), which are arranged in a vertical relationship as described above, are synchronized with the rotation of the rotating shaft (21) in the inner bottom of the granular dry ice container (2). Rotating integrally, the housing (14) receives a certain amount of granular dry ice from the granular dry ice inlet (17) through the granular dry ice metering hole (19), and then receives it into the granular dry ice outlet (18). The stirring tool (6) functions to feed the granular dry ice immediately before being introduced into the granular dry ice metering hole (19) with a stirring blade (16). By breaking, the bridge is broken. As shown in FIG. 2, one of the stirring blades (16) is connected to the granular dry ice inlet (17) based on the rotation direction (indicated by the arrow in FIG. 2). Located near the downstream end is granular in the granular dry ice metering hole (19) via the granular dry ice inlet (17). This is a preferable means in that dry ice can be introduced smoothly.

また、上段中央部ケーシング(1)における前記粒状ドライアイス収容部(2)の直下の個所のケーシング内には、粒状ドライアイス収容部(2)の底壁の直下部で前記粒状ドライアイス排出路(12)に対応する位置に、掬い容器形状に形成した粒状ドライアイス取出し容器(7)を前面側から出し入れ可能に配置していて、粒状ドライアイス排出路(12)から下方に落下してくる粒状ドライアイスをこの粒状ドライアイス取出し容器(7)内に受容れるとともに前方に引き出すことによって該取出し容器(7)内の粒状ドライアイスを適宜取出し得るようになっている。さらに、粒状ドライアイス収容部(2)の直下方の上記ケーシング内の中央部個所には、駆動モータ(8)が出力軸を垂直上向きにして配設されていて、この出力軸に同軸連結してなる前記回転軸(21)が回転式計量装置(5)及び撹拌具(6)に嵌挿入されることにより、枡体(14)と撹拌翼(16)とに対し嵌着されて一体的に軸結合している。   Further, the granular dry ice discharge path is located directly below the bottom wall of the granular dry ice container (2) in the casing immediately below the granular dry ice container (2) in the upper central casing (1). At the position corresponding to (12), a granular dry ice take-out container (7) formed in a scooping container shape is arranged so as to be able to be taken in and out from the front side, and falls downward from the granular dry ice discharge passage (12). The granular dry ice is received in the granular dry ice take-out container (7) and pulled out forward so that the granular dry ice in the take-out container (7) can be taken out as appropriate. Further, a drive motor (8) is disposed at the central portion of the casing directly below the granular dry ice storage section (2) with the output shaft vertically upward, and is coaxially connected to the output shaft. The rotating shaft (21) is inserted into the rotary measuring device (5) and the stirring tool (6), so that the rotating shaft (21) is fitted into the housing (14) and the stirring blade (16) so as to be integrated. It is coupled to the shaft.

一方、粒状ドライアイス収容部(2)の下方に設けた下段ケーシング(4)の上面板における前記粒状ドライアイス排出路(12)に対し真下に位置する個所には、この粒状ドライアイス排出路(12)よりも開口面積を大きくした粒状ドライアイス回収口(20)が同軸的に開口されている。この粒状ドライアイス回収口(20)は、業務終了後の夜間時において前記粒状ドライアイス収容部(2)に残存している粒状ドライアイスを一括して回収する際に利用されるものであり、粒状ドライアイス取出し容器(7)を所定位置から取出した状態の下で、前記撹拌具(6)と前記枡体(14)とを残存量に応じて決まる回転数だけ同期回転することにより、残存粒状ドライアイスを前記粒状ドライアイス回収口(20)を経て下段ケーシング(4)に設置した粒状ドライアイス回収箱(9)に順次回収できるようになっている。なお、図1及び図4中の符号(4A)は下段ケーシング(4)の正面に蝶着された開閉扉を示す。   On the other hand, the granular dry ice discharge passage (at the position directly below the granular dry ice discharge passage (12) on the upper plate of the lower casing (4) provided below the granular dry ice storage section (2). A granular dry ice recovery port (20) having an opening area larger than that of 12) is coaxially opened. The granular dry ice recovery port (20) is used when collecting granular dry ice remaining in the granular dry ice storage unit (2) at night after the end of work. Under the condition that the granular dry ice take-out container (7) is taken out from a predetermined position, the stirring tool (6) and the casing (14) are rotated synchronously by the number of rotations determined according to the remaining amount, thereby remaining. The granular dry ice can be sequentially recovered in the granular dry ice recovery box (9) installed in the lower casing (4) through the granular dry ice recovery port (20). In addition, the code | symbol (4A) in FIG.1 and FIG.4 shows the opening / closing door hinged on the front of the lower casing (4).

図示する本発明に係る粒状ドライアイスの定量取出し装置においては、図4に外観が示されるように、粒状ドライアイス収容部(2)を有する上段中央部ケーシング(1)を挟んで両側に隣設される機器収納部としての上段側部ケーシング(3),(3)が、粒状ドライアイス収容部(2)の外径(R)に比し奥行寸法(D)が小さい立方形状に形成してあって、粒状ドライアイス収容部(2)の前・後面側の少なくとも前面側を膨出させる配置にて設けられている。このような構造と成すことにより、装置全面が平面であるものと比較すると部分的に曲面部が形成されて意匠面での効果が発揮されるだけでなく、奥行寸法を縮小してコンパクトな装置に纏めることもできる利点がある。   In the granular dry ice quantitative take-out device according to the present invention shown in the figure, as shown in FIG. 4, the upper central part casing (1) having the granular dry ice storage part (2) is sandwiched between both sides. The upper side casings (3) and (3) as the equipment storage parts are formed in a cubic shape whose depth dimension (D) is smaller than the outer diameter (R) of the granular dry ice storage part (2). In addition, at least the front side of the front and rear side of the granular dry ice container (2) is provided so as to bulge. With this structure, compared to a device whose entire surface is a flat surface, a curved surface part is partially formed and the effect on the design surface is exhibited, and the depth dimension is reduced and the device is compact. There is an advantage that can be put together.

図4中、符号(27)は蓋体(11)と上段側部ケーシング(3)との間に亘らせたエアダンパー、(28)は蓋体を気密固定するための蓋体留め具、(29)は表示灯、(30)はコイン投入口、(31)はコイン排出レバー、(32)はコイン取出口をそれぞれ示している。   In FIG. 4, the reference numeral (27) is an air damper that extends between the lid (11) and the upper side casing (3), (28) is a lid fastener for hermetically fixing the lid, (29) is an indicator lamp, (30) is a coin slot, (31) is a coin ejection lever, and (32) is a coin slot.

以上の構成になる粒状ドライアイスの定量取出し装置をスーパーマーケットに設置した場合の使用手順について説明する。ドライアイスを同梱する必要がある商品を購入してレジで精算を済ませ、かつ要同梱商品に対応したコインを受け取った購入者が、粒状ドライアイスの定量取出し装置の設置個所に来てコインを係員に手渡すと、このコインを受け取った係員が取出し操作を行う。即ち、粒状ドライアイス取出し容器(7)が正規の位置に装着されていること、また、粒状ドライアイス収容部(2)に粒状ドライアイスが存在していることを表示灯(29)などで確認の後、受け取ったコインをコイン投入口(30)に投入してコイン数に対応した回転数だけ駆動モータ(8)を駆動させ、所要量の粒状ドライアイスを粒状ドライアイス収容部(2)から粒状ドライアイス取出し容器(7)に取出し、この粒状ドライアイス取出し容器(7)内の粒状ドライアイスを備え付けの合成樹脂袋に移し替えて商品購入者に渡し、一回当たりの定量取出し操作が完了する。   The usage procedure when the quantitative dry ice take-out device having the above configuration is installed in a supermarket will be described. A purchaser who has purchased a product that needs to be shipped with dry ice and settled it at the cash register and received a coin corresponding to the packaged product required will come to the place where the granular dry ice quantitative take-out device is installed and receive a coin. Is handed over to the clerk, the clerk who has received this coin performs the take-out operation. That is, it is confirmed by the indicator lamp (29) that the granular dry ice take-out container (7) is mounted in a proper position and that the granular dry ice is present in the granular dry ice container (2). After that, the received coin is inserted into the coin insertion slot (30), and the drive motor (8) is driven by the number of rotations corresponding to the number of coins, and the required amount of granular dry ice is supplied from the granular dry ice container (2). Take out to the granular dry ice take-out container (7), transfer the granular dry ice in this granular dry ice take-out container (7) to the provided synthetic resin bag, give it to the product purchaser, and complete the quantitative take-out operation per time To do.

こうして定量取出し操作が何回も行われ、かつ、粒状ドライアイス収容部(2)への粒状ドライアイスの補給も必要に応じて数回成された後、業務終了後の時間帯になると、粒状ドライアイスの補給量が既知であり、また、駆動モータ(8)の運転回数から粒状ドライアイスの取出し量も既知であるところから、粒状ドライアイス収容部(2)内の残存粒状ドライアイスの残量は当然既知であり、そこで、粒状ドライアイス取出し容器(7)を所定位置から取出した後、この既知残量に応じた回転数だけ駆動モータ(8)を駆動することにより、残存粒状ドライアイスの全量を下段ケーシング(4)内に収納している粒状ドライアイス回収箱(9)に回収して粒状ドライアイス収容部(2)内を空にさせ、かくして係員による一日の作業が終了するのである。   In this way, the quantitative take-out operation is performed many times, and after the granular dry ice is replenished to the granular dry ice storage unit (2) several times as necessary, the granular time becomes after the end of work. Since the amount of dry ice replenished is known and the amount of granular dry ice taken out is also known from the number of operations of the drive motor (8), the amount of residual granular dry ice in the granular dry ice container (2) remains. The amount is naturally known, so after the granular dry ice take-out container (7) is taken out from a predetermined position, the drive motor (8) is driven by the number of revolutions corresponding to this known remaining amount, thereby remaining residual dry ice. Is recovered in the granular dry ice recovery box (9) stored in the lower casing (4) to empty the granular dry ice storage portion (2), thus completing the daily work by the staff. It is.
