Since it is assumed to be a device, when it is dropped into the raw material container through the input port to be replenished, when it is dropped and discharged from the raw material container from the raw material container through the discharge port, this powder is scattered around, It is possible to prevent the inside of the aircraft from being contaminated by a part of the raw material.

In addition to the above, the exhaust device is an exhaust device having a blower for sucking and blowing the air inside the machine body and a filter for filtering the air sucked by the blower as constituent elements. As a result, one of the powdery raw materials is scattered around when it is dropped into the raw material container through the input port to be replenished, and when this beverage is dropped and discharged from the raw material container through the discharge port when the beverage is sold. It is possible to prevent the inside and outside of the body from being contaminated by the section.

In addition to the above, a powder raw material dissipation prevention device may be provided in the raw material container in which at least the upper end is supported by the upper end of the inner wall surface of the raw material container and a gap is formed between at least the lower end and the inner wall surface. Since the powder raw material dispersion prevention device has a partition member having upper and lower partitions and an upper surface forming an inclined surface as a constituent element, the package in which the powdery raw material for supply is sealed is opened and the mouth of the package is opened. When the raw materials in this package are dropped into the raw material container and replenished, it is possible to prevent a part of the powdery raw material from scattering, and even if this part is scattered The partition member can prevent scattering to the outside of the container.

As a result, the inside and outside of the fuselage is polluted inside and outside the fuselage with uncleanliness, and the inside of the fuselage is always cleaned without any trouble. In addition, the effect that it can be maintained hygienically is obtained.
