Hereinafter, with reference to Figures 2 to 4 showing the present invention as an embodiment in more detail as follows.

Figure 2 is an exploded perspective view showing the main part of the present invention and Figure 3 is a perspective view of the combined state of Figure 2 showing a part of the cross-sectional view and Figures 4a and 4b is a longitudinal cross-sectional view of Figure 3, the subject innovation in the product storage unit (1) A semi-cylindrical rotating piece 7 is rotatably installed about the shaft 8 directly below the hopper 4 for guiding the free-falling product to the product extraction section 2, and is fixed to both ends of the rotating piece. The first guide pin 9 is fitted into the first long hole 11 formed in the housing side wall 10 of the product extraction unit 2 and is exposed to the outside of the side wall 10, and the opening of the pivot piece 7 A closing plate 12 is provided between the takeout doors 5 to isolate them.

Therefore, even if the takeout door 5 is opened, the opening of the rotation piece 7 is covered by the closing plate 12.

The second guide pins 13 fixed to both ends of the ejecting door 5 are inserted into the second long holes 14 of the side walls 10 to be exposed to the outside, and are exposed to the outside of the side walls through the second long holes. The pulley 15 is fixed to the two guide pins 13, and a plurality of idle pulleys 16 are rotatably installed on the upper side of the side wall 10.

One end of the wire 17 is fixed to the side wall 10 adjacent to the ejecting door 5 so that the pivoting piece 7 interlocks with the opening of the ejecting door 5, and thus the pulley 15 as shown in FIGS. And it is configured to be fixed to the first guide pin (9) via a plurality of idle pulleys (16).

In the drawing, reference numeral 18 denotes a service product supplier which automatically supplies a service product (gum, etc.) to the space between the takeout door 5 and the closing plate 12 as a certain amount of money is put into the vending machine. to be.

Referring to the operation of the present invention configured as described above are as follows.

First, in the standby state in which the vending machine does not operate, as shown in FIG. 4A, the rotating piece 7 maintains the horizontal state and the ejecting door 5 closes the ejection opening 6.

This is because one end of the wire 17 is fixed to the side wall 10 and the other end is fixed to the first guide pin 9 fixed to the pivoting piece 7 so that no external force is applied to the takeout door 5. In the state, since the rotating piece 7 is maintained in a horizontal state by the center of gravity, the wire 17 is pulled toward the rotating piece 7, thereby drawing the pulley 15 having one end connected to the wire 17. The ejection door 5 closes the ejection opening 6 because it is pushed upward and to the left.

In this state, as the user inputs a certain amount of money into the vending machine, the control unit (not shown) detects this and freely drops the service product to the rear of the takeout door 5. Gum and the like supplied as a service product can be taken out and enjoyed through the takeout door 5 while enjoying.

In this way, when the user pushes the button set while playing a predetermined game and acquiring a predetermined score while the service product is taken out, the product stored in the product storage unit 1 falls freely downward, and the product falling freely is the hopper 4. It is mounted on the pivot piece 7 through the opening (4a) of.

As the goods stored in the product storage part 1 of the vending machine are placed on the pivoting piece 7 by the above-described operation, the user removes the drawer door 5 to take out the goods placed on the pivoting piece 7. Since the product placed on the pushing surface 7 is dropped to the ejection opening 6 by its own weight, the user can take out the product.

That is, the wire 17 is connected to the pulley 15 exposed to the outside of the side wall 10, one end of the wire 17 is fixed to the side wall 10, and the other end is fixed to the pivoting piece 7. Since the wire 17 is pulled in the process of moving the second guide pin 13 along the second long hole 14 (the process of opening the drawer door), it is fixed to the first guide pin 9, The first guide pin 9 fixed to 7) moves together along the first long hole 11, whereby the rotating piece 7 is rotated about the shaft 8 as shown in FIG. 4B. Since it is dropped to the outlet 6 side, the user can take out the goods located in the outlet (6).

After removing the goods located at the outlet 6 by removing the external force from the outlet door 5 by the above operation, the pivoting piece 7 is restored to the position as shown in FIG. One end of is fixed to the first guide pin (9) to push the pulley (15) connected to the wire 17 to the left in the drawing, so that the takeout door (5) is closed.

Therefore, the opening 4a of the hopper 4 can always be closed regardless of whether the drawer door 5 is opened or closed, so that the product stored in the upper portion of the product storage unit 1 can be artificially removed using a wire or the like. It will not be possible.

As described above, the present invention closes the opening of the hopper through which the product storage part and the product taking out part where the main product is stored with the rotating piece, and only when the product is placed on the rotating piece and pushes the takeout door to take it out. Since the goods placed on the rotating piece fall to the outlet side, the goods stored in the product storage unit cannot be taken out using wires, etc., and the effect of preventing inadvertent electric shock accidents is obtained.
