Description

[Detailed description of the invention] (a) Industrial application field The present invention relates to coin-operated equipment such as coin-operated dryers.

(b) Prior Art A series of devices of this type is disclosed in Japanese Utility Model Publication No. 12303/1983. This device has a front plate on the front of the machine, a coil loading mechanism is installed on the front plate, the front plate is fixed to the machine with a key, and the key is used to collect the inserted coin box. Release the stuck state of the front plate.

In addition, in the case where the top plate is opened when recovering the box, as shown in Fig. 3, the top plate 32 is rotatably attached to the upper opening of the machine body 31, and the top plate 32 is rotatably attached to the top opening of the machine body 31. A key 34 rotatably provided on the top plate 32 is engaged with the joint piece 33 in the vertical direction. A coin insertion mechanism 35 is provided on the front plate 36, a box 37 is placed on a partition plate 38, and the box 37 is simply surrounded by a case 39.

(c) Problems to be solved by the invention Therefore, in the conventional example shown in Publication of Utility Model Publication No. 12303/1983, the gap between the fuselage and the front plate is fixed, and in the conventional example shown in Fig. 3, the gap between the fuselage 31 and If the space between the top plates 32 is forcibly pried open using a crowbar or the like, the case can be easily removed, so that the box can be taken out immediately.

Therefore, the present invention has been developed by firmly attaching the case surrounding the box with keys and pins.
The box cannot be taken out simply by removing the front plate or top plate.

Furthermore, the key and pin can be easily positioned to ensure the locking effect of the key.

(d) Means for solving the problem The solution according to the present invention is to fix a horizontally long receiver having approximately the same length as the width of the case and surrounded by the case on the inner surface of the body above the box. In addition, this receiver is provided with a vertical insertion hole, and a pin is inserted into this insertion hole from above to lock the pin head, and a cover plate with a key is fixed to the top of the case. , an engaging claw is provided at the bottom of the case that engages with the engaging hole of the partition plate in the vertical direction, and the lower surface of the cover plate is placed close to the pin head, and the key is engaged with the pin from the side. This is the configuration.

(E) Function: When enclosing a box for storing inserted coins placed on a partition plate with a case, the case is vertically fixed to the partition plate by the engagement claw and the engagement hole, and the key and the It is also held in place horizontally using pins. Furthermore, it is difficult to remove the pin by placing the case lid close to the pin head. For this reason, even if the top plate is forcibly removed from the fuselage, the case will not easily come off due to external forces from vertical and lateral directions, and the box cannot be easily removed.

In addition, while the pin is inserted into the horizontally long receiver, this receiver can be used to position the case, so the corresponding position of the key and pin on the case can be accurately determined, and the locking effect with only the key and pin can be achieved. Secured.

(F) Example An example of a coin-operated dryer will be described below based on the drawings. In Fig. 1, the machine body 1 has a coin insertion mechanism 2 at the upper front side, and a top plate 3 that rotates in the upper opening. Installed as possible. A partition plate 4 is provided in the middle upper part of the fuselage 1, and a heater 5 is installed in the middle upper part of the partition plate 4.
However, a horizontal shaft type rotating drum 6 is provided at the bottom of each of the drums. An exhaust fan 7 is installed at the bottom of the fuselage 1, and the outside air sucked in from the intake port 8 is heated by a heater 5, heated and dried by a rotating drum 6, and then sucked through a filter 9. , is released from the duct 10 to the outside. Reference numeral 11 indicates a door for clothing entrance/exit.

The coin insertion mechanism 2 is a general type in which a chute is connected to a coin insertion slot, and the number of coins is counted after detecting the diameter of the coin in the chute.
The inserted coins are stored in a coin box 12 placed on the partition plate 4.

A rotatable key 13 is provided on the top plate 3 and engages with an engagement piece 4 erected at the upper end of the body 1 in the vertical direction.

As shown in Figure 2 A and B, coin box 1
2 is surrounded by a coin case 15, which is made by spot welding or the like to fix a cover plate 16 to the upper opening of a sheet metal bent in a horizontal U-shape.

This coin case 15 has insert pieces 1 that simply protrude downward at both corners of the lower end on the inside of the machine.
7, 17, and so-called L-shaped engaging claws 18, 18, which protrude downward and are further bent in a direction away from the inner surface of the fuselage, are formed at both corners of the lower end away from the inner surface of the fuselage. There is.

On the other hand, the partition plate 4 has ordinary engagement holes 19, 19 corresponding to the insertion pieces 17, 17, and engagement claws 1.
Slightly larger engagement holes 19, 19 corresponding to 8, 18
is provided. That is, when fixing the coin case 15 to the partition plate 4, tilt the coin case 15 diagonally and first insert the engaging claws 18, 18 into the engaging holes 19, 19.
Then, raise the coin case 15 and fit the insertion pieces 17, 17 into the engagement holes 19, 19.
Then, the engaging claws 18, 18 are engaged with the edges of the engaging holes 19, 19, including in the vertical direction, and the end surface of the coin case 15 on the inner surface of the machine body comes into contact with the inner surface of the machine body 1.

Furthermore, aircraft 1 above coin box 12
A receiver stand 20 made of an L-shaped sheet metal with a width slightly smaller than the width of the coin case 15 is attached and riveted to the inner surface of the coin case 15. A U-shaped receiver 21 is spot-welded to the upper part of the coin case 15 of the receiver stand 20, and this receiver 21 has vertical insertion holes 22, 22 bored in the center. A pin 23 is inserted into this hole from above, and the head 24 of the pin 23 is hooked to the edge of the hole.

The inner surface of the cover plate 16 of the coin case 15 has a pin 23
A hook-shaped key 25 that is rotatably operated is provided in the center of the cover plate 16 to prevent the pin 23 from being pulled out upwardly. This also prevents the coin case 15 from moving away from the inner surface of the body. The engagement position of the pin 23 and the key 25 is the coin case 15.
This can be done reliably by aligning the opening on the inner surface of the case to the width of the receiving base 20 when attaching the case.

Thus, even if a crowbar or the like is inserted between the machine body 1 and the top plate 3, the engagement between the key 13 and the engagement piece 14 is forcibly broken, and the top plate 3 is opened, the coin case 15
is engaged with the partition plate 4 in the vertical direction by the engaging claws 18, 18 and the engaging holes 20, 20, and is engaged in the horizontal direction with the receiver 21 and the receiver base 20 by the key 25 and the pin 23. Since they are engaged, the coin case 15 cannot be easily removed. Further, even if an attempt is made to pull out the pin 23, the inner surface of the lid body 16 prevents this.

(g) Effects of the invention According to the invention, even if the top plate is forcibly opened, the coin case surrounding the coin box is firmly fixed, so the coin box cannot be easily taken out, preventing theft. Since the prevention function is high, it is possible to provide a coin-operated device that is very easy to manage for the installer.
