An electrical component box is installed that contains a control device that sends a sales command signal to each built-in electronic / electric device that carries out the product selected by the selection button and stored in the case into the outlet. ing. For this reason, the wiring that connects the electronic and electrical equipment installed in various parts of the machine with the control equipment and the electronic electrode equipment inside the electrical equipment box is concentrated and complicated in this electrical equipment box. A conventional example of a vending machine is shown in FIGS. 3 to 5. FIG. 3 is a front view showing a mounting position of an electric component box of the vending machine and an external view of the vending machine, and FIG. 4 is a state in which a door of the vending machine including a conventional electric component box structure of the vending machine is opened. FIG. 5 is a perspective view showing the appearance as seen from the front upper left, and FIG. 5 is an enlarged perspective view of the main part of the electrical component box shown in FIG.

In FIGS. 3 and 4, reference numeral 1 denotes a case in which the product for sale is stored, and a front opening of the case 1 is covered with a door 2. The door 2 has a compartment 3 formed on the front side of the door to advertise and display products to be sold, selection buttons 4 arranged on the left and right to select products, insertion ports 5 and 6 for inserting coins and bills, respectively. A take-out port 7 for taking out is provided. A back cover 8 that covers the rear opening of the door 2 is rotatably supported on the back side of the door 2.
The electronic mechanism such as a coin mechanism 9 for determining the authenticity of the money inserted from the insertion ports 5 and 6 and accumulating, an electronic device such as an identification device 10, and a product selected by the selection button 4 and stored in the case 1 are collected. Box-shaped electrical equipment box 12 for accommodating a control device 11 including a microcomputer that sends a sales command signal to each of the built-in electronic electrode devices (not shown) carried out in the outlet 7 and controls the operation thereof.
Is provided. This electrical equipment box 12 is composed of a box body 14 having an opening on the rear surface and a flange portion 13 projecting in the outer circumferential direction at the peripheral edge of the opening, and an electronic electrode device and a control device 11 in this box body 14 and the inside of the machine. The electronic electrode device (not shown) provided in each part is connected via a connector 15 fitted in a hole formed on the left side surface of the box body 14 when viewed from the rear, and a wiring clamp is appropriately provided to each part via a connector 16. Wirings 18 whose middles are fixed at 17 are connected to each other, and wirings 19 are connected between the electronic and electrical devices and the control device 11 inside the box body 14.

[Problems to be solved by the device]

By the way, the electric component box structure of such a conventional vending machine includes an electronic component (not shown) in which the inside of the electric component box 12 is arranged in another portion of the machine, and the electric component box 12
The electronic clamp and the control device 11 are connected to each other via connectors 15 and 16, and the wiring clamp 1
The wiring 18 fixed via 7 tends to be complicated and the appearance tends to be messy. On the other hand, the rear opening of the box 14 is opened or covered at best with a transparent flexible curtain or the like so that it can be easily operated in operations such as price setting of sold products, replenishment and collection of money, and sales test. Is. Therefore, when the door 2 is opened, the inside of the electrical component box 12 is almost exposed, and the wiring 18 that is connected through the connector 16 and is appropriately fixed by the wiring clamp 17 is exposed. However, there is a problem that the wirings and 19 are disturbed in the box body 14 and wiring and maintenance and inspection work are difficult and time-consuming, and wiring mistakes easily occur.

It is an object of the present invention to provide an electric component box structure for a vending machine in which wiring and maintenance and inspection work can be easily performed without impairing the appearance, and wiring errors do not occur.

[Means for solving the problem]

According to this invention, in order to solve the above-mentioned problems, when a selection button for selecting a product is inserted when money is thrown in and provided on a door that covers the front opening of a case where the front surface is open and various products are stored inside. The control device that controls the operation of each electronic and electrical device installed in each part of the carry-out machine is housed in the outlet that sends the sales command signal and opens the selected product in the front, and In an electrical component box structure of a vending machine that accommodates an electronic / electrical device such as a coin mechanism for determining whether it is true or false, a box body that accommodates the control device and the electronic / electrical device and has an opening on one side, and this box A hole formed in the bottom of the body for inserting a wire for mutually connecting the control device and the electronic / electrical device inside the box and the electronic / electrical device arranged in each part inside the machine, and the box in which the hole is formed The bottom of the body The assumed and a cover covering the outside of the box body.

[Action]

According to the present invention, a box body which accommodates electronic devices such as a coin mechanism and a control device for controlling the operation of each electronic device arranged in various parts inside the machine, and a box which is open on one side is formed at the bottom of the box. From the outside, a hole for inserting a wire for mutually connecting the control device and the electronic / electrical device inside the box and the electronic / electrical device arranged in each part of the machine, and a bottom surface of the box having the hole are formed from the outside. Since it has a cover for covering, it is possible to wire between the wiring cover and the box body that connect the control equipment and the electronic and electrical equipment inside the box, which are connected through the holes, and the electronic and electrical equipment arranged in various parts inside the machine, Moreover, either the male or female of this wiring can be connected and fixed via a connector fixed to the hole. Wiring between the control device and the electronic / electrical device inside the box and wiring between the device inside the box and the electronic / electrical device outside the box inside the box can be sorted and wired so as not to be confused inside the box.
