This is carried out using a spiral system in which products are carried out using a vertically installed spiral, or an elevator system in which products placed on the shelves are moved down by vertically disposed multi-tiered product shelves to carry out the products placed on the shelves. It's been coming. However, in the case of the spiral method, products are stored one by one between the helical sides of the spiral and transported and transported, so it has the disadvantage that the number of products stored is extremely small compared to the size of the product storage room.
In addition, the elevator system has drawbacks such as a small number of products to be stored and the equipment is complex and expensive.

停止して販売送出待機状態となる。 When a predetermined amount of money is inserted during this sales sending standby state and, for example, the product selection switch 25 is operated and the selection signal S1 is input to the motor control section 27, the output terminal DB1 of the motor control section 27 becomes a low level. . Therefore, the drive circuit 28 has Q 1 = OFF, Q 2 = ON,
Q 3 = ON, Q 4 = OFF, and the electric motor 6 starts rotating clockwise. This clockwise rotation of the electric motor 6 causes the drive shaft 5 to rotate in the direction of arrow C in FIG. This rotation of the drive shaft 5 causes the drive control cam 10 to operate the control switch 11 and turn it on.
In addition, the driving portion 21a of the locking cam 21 presses the auxiliary stoppers 18 and 19, respectively, to project the locking portion 20 into the product passages 7 and 8, and the product A 3 ,
Lock and hold A 4 . On the other hand, the drive portion 9b of the delivery cam 9 moves the control member 12 in the direction of the product path 8. Then, the control section 12c of the control member 12 reaches the vicinity of the shaft support of the main stopper 13, and the main stopper 1
When the main stopper 13 is released from support 3, the main stopper 13 is rotated downward by the load of the product, moves to the product delivery position, and drops the product A1 downward. In this state, the drive shaft 5 is rotated approximately 90 degrees, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4. On the other hand, when the drive shaft 5 rotates approximately 90 degrees, the control switch 11 is operated by the drive control cam 10, and the control switch 11 is turned off.
When the control signal generated by the OFF operation of the control switch 11 is input to the motor control section 27, the motor control section 27 sets the output terminal DB1 to a high level again to stop the electric motor 6 and also starts the built-in timer circuit. The output terminal DB2 is set to a low level after a predetermined time period sufficient for the product A1 , which has been activated and stopped by the main stopper 13, to fall and be sent out. Therefore, the electric motor 6 is temporarily stopped for the predetermined time, and the low level of the output terminal DB2 causes the drive circuit 28 to perform Q 1 =
ON, Q 2 = OFF, Q 3 = OFF, Q 4 = ON, so counterclockwise rotation begins. That is, the electric motor 6 rotates in the opposite direction to rotate the drive shaft 5 in the direction of arrow D in FIG. This rotation of the drive shaft 5 causes the main stopper 14 to
The control member 12 that was supported by extending largely to the lower surface
is moved back toward the product path 7 by the delivery cam 9. Therefore, the main stopper 13 is pressed into the product passage 7 by the control member 12, and as the control member 12 moves, it gradually extends into the product passage 7, moves to the product locking position, and is supported on the control member 12. A main stopper 13 mounted and supported on the control member 12
is rotated upward from the horizontal position due to the elasticity of the sold-out detection spring 15, but until this state the drive shaft 5
When the locking cam 21 rotates, the driving portion 21a of the locking cam 21 releases the pressure on the auxiliary stoppers 18 and 19, so the locking portions 20 of the auxiliary stoppers 18 and 19 rotate outward from the product passages 7 and 8, respectively. Product A 3 ,
Release the lock of A 4 . Therefore, the unlocked product A 3 falls onto the main stopper 13 under its own weight, and
The main stopper 13 is rotated against the elasticity of the spring 15 to a position where it is horizontally supported by the control member 12 and is locked. When the drive shaft 5 reversely rotates approximately 90 degrees and returns to the state shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the drive control cam 10 operates the control switch 11 to turn it OFF. A control signal resulting from the operation is input to the motor control unit 27, and the output terminal DB2 becomes a high level, and the electric motor 6 is stopped and enters a sales sending standby state.

Rotate 90 degrees to send product A on the product aisle 7 side for sale, and after sending out, rotate the drive shaft 5 to the left (reverse rotation) to rotate the drive shaft 5 by 90 degrees.
When the product selection switch 26 is operated, the electric motor 6 rotates to the left to send out the product A in the product aisle 8 for sale, and after being sent out, it rotates to the right to return to the standby position. This is a configuration that allows

るものである。(f) Effects of the Invention Since the present invention is constructed as described above, the products in the product aisles on both sides of the drive shaft can be selectively sent out using the product selection switch.
Therefore, different types of products can be stored in the product aisles on both sides and sold selectively, and the products stored in the product aisles on both sides can be sold at different prices for each side. It will also be possible to take In addition, the main stopper extends almost horizontally so as to close the product aisle and can place and lock the lowest product, so even when storing easily deformable products such as beverage products in paper containers, the main stopper can be placed in the lowest position. Product load is not applied to a part of the subordinate product, and deformation of the product can be reduced.Therefore, product clogging due to product deformation can be prevented, and product delivery operations can be performed reliably. It is.
