Description

The present invention relates to a cosmetic cover for use in vending machines, and more particularly, the front door of the facade definitive vending machine, detachably mounted on the side surface or the upper surface, thereby low while allowing protect vending machines The present invention relates to a decorative cover for a vending machine that makes it easy to change and repair the decoration according to cost, and that can give a strong impact to those who come into contact with the vending machine by free decoration at low cost.

Generally, a vending machine is transported using a hand-carrying tool called a “cat” at the time of installation or collection. At this time, the front surface of the vending machine or the like faces downward. It is common to place it on a transporter and transport it to the installation location in this state.

  For this reason, it has been pointed out that vending machines and the like have a problem in that it is impossible to manufacture impactful vending machines with high decorativeness due to restrictions on the shape of the front side.

  That is, in order to make an impact vending machine or the like, it is desirable to provide a conspicuous decoration on the front side. For this purpose, for example, a product advertisement having unevenness on the front surface is formed, or the front surface is placed on the front side. For example, if the front surface is uneven, or if the front surface is curved toward the front, the portion where the unevenness is formed during transportation, Alternatively, since the curved portion is on the lower side, it is fully conceivable that the uneven surface and the curved surface are damaged by vibration during transportation.

  In addition, when installing and collecting vending machines, cranes and lifts may be used. For example, when a crane is used, a rope is attached to the vending machine and the tip of the crane is hooked on this rope. In this case, the crane moves and installs the vending machine while suspending the vending machine. At this time, if the front surface is uneven, or the front surface is curved toward the front, the uneven portion, etc. If a rope is caught on the surface, the uneven surface may be broken. Furthermore, the worker may touch the vending machine to stop the swinging of the vending machine while it is suspended by the crane, but again, the vending machine generally has a weight of 400 kg or more. If the front surface is curved, or if the front surface is curved toward the front side and the operator touches the uneven surface, the uneven surface may break. Conceivable.

  For this reason, in conventional vending machines, etc., the front surface is made as flat as possible for the purpose of minimizing damage during transportation. The degree of restriction is limited, so that decoration cannot be performed freely, and there is a limit to the production of impact vending machines.

  In vending machines, etc., product advertisements are generally displayed on the front door. Conventionally, product advertisements are displayed on the front door by painting, etc. When changing to another advertisement, at least the entire front door had to be repainted, which was troublesome and costly.

  And this is also true when repairing vending machines, etc., that is, when repairing vending machines, etc., it is common to repaint all parts including scratched parts. Therefore, there was a problem that it would take time and money to do so.

  Therefore, in the past, the present inventor can increase the degree of freedom of decoration on the front surface of a vending machine or the like to make an impact vending machine, and can easily change or repair the decoration. For this purpose, a front cover for vending machines was proposed.
