Automatic vending machine

Abstract

The present invention provides an automatic vending machine which can reduce the possibility of failure and the possibility of the operating efficiency declining during open doors to operating. The automatic vending machine 1 includes a door installed at the housing of main body switchable easily and electric apparatuses 19, 34 acting by voltage control unit 4 to supply voltage. The switching unit 40 is installed between the door and the housing of the main body, when the door is open, the switching unit 40 cuts off the voltage from the voltage control unit supplying to the electric apparatus, and when the door is close, the switching unit allows the voltage control unit to supply voltage to the electric apparatus. Because the low voltage of the coins handling device 24 does not connected with the switching unit 40, it can recycle coins in the coins handing device, when the door is open, it can carry out action on the switch unit 40 connected with the to-be-discharged merchandise holding member 1 by handle.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an automatic vending machine. Background technique [0002] For example, vending machines that sell canned beverages, bottled beverages, soft-packed beverages, or plastic bottled beverages as commodities have been widely used. This kind of automatic vending machine has a door leaf that can be freely installed on the main body casing, a voltage control unit and a commodity discharge mechanism (electrical device) arranged inside the main body casing, and a lighting unit (electrical device) arranged inside the door leaf. [0003] The voltage control unit is used to convert the voltage and frequency of the commercial power supply to the prescribed voltage and frequency, and supply the voltage to each electrical device respectively. [0004] The product discharge mechanism is connected to the voltage control unit by a cable covered with insulating material through a wire, and operates with the voltage applied from the voltage contr...

AI Technical Summary

Problems solved by technology

[0008] In a vending machine without a leakage circuit breaker, for example, when opening the door for maintenance, if between the voltage control unit and the electrical device, for example, the wires in it come into contact with foreign objects such as a screwdriver due to damage to the insulation material of the cable When a leakage occurs, it may cause the wire to burn out and cause the vending machine to malfunction.

[0009] On the other hand, in an automatic vending machine equipped with a leakage circuit breaker, for example, when the door leaf is opened for maintenance, if between the voltage control unit and the electrical device, for example, due to damage to the insulation material of the cable, the wires therein are disconnected from, for example, When a foreign object such as a screwdriver touches and causes leakage, although the leakage can be prevented by operating the leakage circuit breaker, after the leakage circuit breaker is activated, the operator must temporarily suspend the work, and in order to prevent the leakage from occurring again, the operation of the leakage circuit breaker must be released. operation, the operation can be restarted

Therefore, there is a problem that work efficiency is reduced due to job interruption
