Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a double door that can be opened and closed to the left and right sides of a vending machine.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 The door of the vending machine is selected to be opened right or left depending on the circumstances of the installation location. Therefore, there are two types of vending machines, right opening type and left opening type. However, even in the same installation location, it may be desired to open and close to the right in some cases and to the left in some cases due to changes in circumstances, and there are still vending machines that can meet this demand. Not not.

[0003]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 An object of the present invention is to obtain a door that can be opened and closed on either side of the vending machine and can be locked.

[0004]

[Means for Solving the Problems]

 In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, in the present invention, an upper slider and a lower slider which are vertically arranged and vertically slidable in opposite directions, and a hinge pin provided at an upper end of the upper slider and a lower end of the lower slider, respectively, are provided. A hinge lock unit having a drive mechanism provided on the upper slider and the lower slider, an opening / closing lever connected to the drive mechanism, and a locking mechanism provided on the opening / closing lever is provided on each side of the door, and the vending machine is provided. Provide hinge receivers corresponding to each hinge pin of the hinge lock unit on both sides of the main body.

Further, an auxiliary lock mechanism may be further provided between the hinge lock unit and the vending machine body to double the lock action.

[0006]

[Action]

 In the present invention, when the locking mechanism of the opening / closing lever is locked, the hinge pins of the upper slider and the lower slider engage with the hinge receivers of the main body, and the door is supported and locked by the main body. When the lock mechanism of the open / close lever of one hinge lock unit is unlocked and the open / close lever is operated, both sliders slide through the drive mechanism and disengage from the hinge receiver of the main body, and the door of the other hinge lock unit moves. It is pivotally supported by a hinge pin and can be opened.

【Example】

 Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

FIG. 1 is an overall perspective view of a vending machine having a door according to the present invention, where 1 is a vending machine body, 2 is a door, 3 is a product sample, 4 is a product selection button, and 5 is a coin insertion. Mouth, 6 is a coin return lever, 7 is a product outlet, and 8 is a coin return port. Reference numerals 9 and 10 denote hinge lock units provided on both sides of the door 2. Only the opening / closing levers 11 and 12 are exposed on the front surface of the door, and the others are housed inside the door.

FIG. 2 shows a detailed structure of the hinge lock unit. The hinge lock unit 9 is placed near the left end of the door 2, and an upper slider 21 and a lower slider 22 are vertically arranged side by side. The upper end of the upper slider 21 has a hinge pin 23 and the lower end of the lower slider 22. A hinge pin 24 is provided on the. A pin 25 is attached to the upper slider 21 and a pin 26 is attached to the lower slider 22. These pins 25 and 26 are fitted in the respective slots 29 and 30 of the crank plates 27 and 28, respectively. 28 are hinged to both ends of the drive lever 31, respectively. A rotating shaft 32 is fixed to the center of the drive lever 31, and an opening / closing lever 33 (corresponding to the opening / closing lever 11 in FIG. 1) is provided at the tip of the rotating shaft 32. An opening / closing lever holding frame 34 is provided so as to face the opening / closing lever 33, the opening / closing lever holding frame 34 has a receiving groove 35 for holding the opening / closing lever 33, and the opening / closing lever 33 is provided with a key hole 36. A key 37 can be inserted into the key hole 36. The open / close lever 33 is locked by being pushed into the receiving groove 35, unlocked by pushing the key 37 into the key hole 36, and popped out of the receiving groove 35 by a spring incorporated therein. Hinge receivers 38 and 39 are provided at positions above and below the front surface of the vending machine body 1 so as to face the hinge pins 23 and 24, and the hinge pins 23 and 24 can be inserted into the holes 40 and 41, respectively. Further, the upper slider 21 and the lower slider 22 are provided with engaging grooves 42 and 43, respectively, and slider lock plates 44 and 45 are provided at positions of the main body 1 facing them, respectively, and notch grooves 46 and 47 thereof are provided. The engagement grooves 42 and 43 are adapted to engage with each other, and they form an auxiliary locking mechanism.

A hinge lock unit 10 having the same structure as the hinge lock unit 9 described above is also placed near the right end of the door 2.

Next, the operation of the door of the present invention will be described. When the door 2 is closed, in the left hinge lock unit 9, the upper slider 21 moves upward, the hinge pin 23 fits into the hole 40 of the hinge receiver 38, and the lower slider 22 moves downward to move the hinge pin. 24 is fitted in the hole 41 of the hinge receiver 39, and the engaging groove 42 and the notch groove 46 of the slider lock plate 44 are engaged with each other, so that the engaging groove 43 and the notch of the slider lock plate 45 are notched. The opening / closing lever 33 is engaged in the receiving groove 35 of the opening / closing lever holding frame 34 in a locked state, and the hinge lock unit 9 on the left side performs both hinge and lock operations. To do. The same applies to the right hinge lock unit 10.

When opening the door 2 to the right now, inserting the key 37 into the key hole 36 of the opening / closing lever 33 of the hinge lock unit 9 on the left side unlocks the opening / closing lever 33. As shown in the figure, the spring incorporated causes the spring to pop out from the receiving groove 35 of the holding frame 34 and move to the operable position. Then, when the open / close lever 33 is rotated clockwise, the rotary shaft 26, the drive lever 31, and the crank plates 27, 28 are rotated clockwise, and the pin 25 fitted in the slot 29 of the crank plate 27 is pulled down to lower the crank plate 28. The pin 26 fitted in the slot 30 is pulled up, the upper slider 21 moves downward, the lower slider 22 moves upward, the hinge pin 23 comes out of the hole 40 of the hinge receiver 38, and the hinge pin 24 moves into the hole 41 of the hinge receiver 39. When the hinge lock unit 9 is disengaged, the engagement between the engagement groove 42 and the slider lock plate 44 and the engagement groove 43 and the slider lock plate 45 are released, and the hinge and the locking operation of the hinge lock unit 9 are released. At this time, since the hinge lock unit 10 on the right side is in the hinged and locked state, the door 2 can be opened to the right side about the hinge lock unit 10 on the right side. When opening the door to the left, the same operation can be performed by unlocking the hinge lock unit 10 on the right.

When closing the door, the door 2 is moved to the closed position, and the open / close lever 33 is moved counterclockwise to move the upper slider 21 upward and the lower slider 22 downward, and again hinge pins 23, 24. Are locked into the holes 40 and 41 of the hinge receivers 38 and 39, respectively, and the open / close lever 33 is pushed into the receiving groove 35 to automatically become a locked state.

Although the combination of the drive lever and the crank plate is used as the slider drive mechanism in the above example, the invention is not limited to this, and any mechanism can be used as long as it is capable of converting the rotational movement of the opening / closing lever into reciprocating movement. Can be used.

[0015]

[Effect of device]

 According to the present invention, by arranging the hinge mechanism and the lock mechanism of the door integrated in one mechanism on both sides of the door, it is possible to obtain the double opening function and the locking function with an extremely simple structure. , One kind of vending machine can meet the requirement of left-right opening.
