Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Field of industrial application] This invention is applicable to various types of beverage vending machines such as soft drinks and coffee, food vending machines such as frozen and simple foods, other cigarette vending machines, currency exchange machines, etc. This invention relates to a service stand with a dust box attached to these vending machines when a plurality of vending machines and service machines are arranged in parallel to create a full line of unmanned general stores.

[Conventional technology and its problems]

With the diversification of vending machines and the increase in the number of users, in companies, factories, offices, schools, hospitals, etc., where a large number of people are expected to use various vending machines, a certain corner should be set up within the premises to store various types of vending machines. BACKGROUND ART Recently, unmanned general stores have been constructed by installing a plurality of vending machines for food, drinks, etc. in parallel.
In such cases, it is especially desirable to install a stand for a microwave oven for thawing frozen foods and a stand for plates and cups next to the vending machine for frozen foods.
Furthermore, in the past, collection containers such as simple trash cans and plastic buckets were placed nearby to store waste such as used cups and empty cans, but their arrangement and disposal tended to be messy, causing problems in terms of appearance and appearance. There were environmental health problems. In addition, if a vending machine breaks down, repairs need to be done not only from the front of the machine, but also from the back in some cases, so it is best to install the vending machine in a corner. It was not possible to do so, and it was necessary to set aside a space the size of one vending machine, for example, so that the service staff could go behind the vending machine. If such space was not available, it was sometimes necessary to climb over the top of the front of the vending machine and get into the back. In addition, if such a space is taken up, a partition plate should be installed to prevent the general public, especially young children, from easily entering the back of the vending machine as there are pipes and raw materials for storage.
A door was installed here as an entrance and exit for maintenance and inspection. This required extra space and expense.

[Purpose of invention]

In order to solve the above-mentioned conventional problems, the present invention has the upper part used as a stand for service items such as a microwave oven, and the lower part used as a dust box, and the front and rear doors can be opened as necessary. The purpose is to provide a service stand for vending machines that can be walked through.

[Means for achieving the purpose]

According to the present invention, the above object consists of a casing having a shape similar to that of a vending machine, the upper part of which is configured as a storage space for service items, the front side is open, and a plate for placing service items is provided. The lower part is configured as a dust box for accommodating a waste collection container, which is achieved by having a front door with a dust chute at the top and a rear door that can be passed through.

[Effect]

The upper part of the service stand according to the present invention can be used as a microwave oven necessary for thawing frozen foods, as a stand for plates and cups as tableware, or as a stand for decorative items such as fresh flowers and bonsai, catalogs, maps, etc. It can be used as an original service stand for various service items, and the lower part can be used as a dust box to house waste collection containers, and the front and rear doors with dust chute can be installed as needed. This allows service personnel to freely pass through and get behind various vending machines during repairs.

〔Example〕

The present invention will be explained below with reference to the drawings. The service stand, which is arranged in parallel with various vending machines, is made up of a housing 1 of the same shape as the vending machines, and the upper part of the housing 1 is configured as a storage space 2 that can be used for storing various service items (not shown), such as a microwave oven for thawing frozen foods, food plates, and even ornaments such as fresh flowers and bonsai, catalogs, maps, etc., and for this reason the front is open.
A plate is provided for placing service items, and a wire mesh 4 is provided for ventilation, which is necessary especially when using a microwave oven. The lower part of the stand 1 is configured as a dust box 5 for accommodating containers such as garbage bins or plastic buckets (shown by broken lines) for collecting waste such as used cups and empty cans, and a front door 7 with a dust chute 6 at the top is provided on the front of the dust box.
It is recommended to have two dust chutes so that waste such as paper cups and plates can be collected separately from plastic containers and empty cans. 8 is a guide plate to guide the waste to the collection container. 9 is a rear door that is usually locked and can be opened when necessary.

[Effect of idea]

As mentioned above, in the service stand according to the present invention, the upper part is used as the original service stand, and the lower part is used as a dust box, and the collection containers such as garbage cans stored in this are directly visible from the outside. First, it is extremely suitable in terms of appearance and environmental hygiene. When the internal container is full, you can open the front door and dispose of it. Furthermore, when necessary for repairs, etc., by opening the front door, putting away the collection container, and opening the rear door, service personnel can freely enter the back side of various vending machines through this door. Therefore, when various vending machines are installed in a corner, if the service stands of the present invention are placed side by side, the above-mentioned inconvenience will not occur and an extremely good space utilization rate will be achieved. Furthermore, since there is no need to provide a partition plate with a door, it is also advantageous in terms of cost. Furthermore, when a full line of vending machines is developed, if the service stand according to the present invention is given a unified design along with other vending machines, an extremely excellent display effect can be achieved as an unmanned general store.
