Vending machines for products that require cooking, such as boxed lunches, that are heated and sold can be roughly divided into those that use electric heaters to warm and store products, and those that are kept refrigerated or frozen at all times and are used each time they are sold. There are two types: an instant heating type that heats with high frequency. If the former is kept warm for a long time, there is a risk of deterioration of taste and the growth of bacteria, and there are legal restrictions on the storage period, and if it is past a certain period, it may need to be discarded. This has resulted in huge losses and has become a bottleneck in the vending machine business. In addition, the latter requires about 3 to 4 minutes to perform high-frequency heating in a microwave oven with the output level that is common in ordinary households, and is limited to schools, company cafeterias, etc. Its use is restricted in places where large quantities of sales are required within a certain period of time.

〔発明が解決しようとする問題点〕[Problem that the invention seeks to solve]
