[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a support portion of a support leg of a vending machine.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A vending machine includes a vending machine main body constituting an outer box for storing goods such as cans and bottles therein, and an outer door covering a front opening of the vending machine main body. Generally, the entire vending machine has a substantially rectangular parallelepiped shape.

FIG. 10 is a perspective view of a conventional vending machine as viewed from the front side, and FIG. 11 is a perspective view in a state where an outer door is opened.

In FIGS. 10 and 11, reference numeral 1 denotes a vending machine main body constituting an outer box having a front opening, and 2 denotes a vending machine main body 1 which can be freely opened and closed so as to cover a front opening of the vending machine main body 1. An outer door 3 is provided for storing a product provided in the vending machine main body 1, and a storage portion 4 is provided for the vending machine main body 1, and is provided with a refrigerator and a heater for cooling or heating the product in the storing portion 3. 5 is a control device such as a money changer provided on the back surface of the outer door 2, 6 is a middle door covering the opening of the storage unit 3, 7 is a product selection button provided on the front surface of the outer door 2, 8 is A product sample 9 provided on the front surface of the outer door 2 and corresponding to the product selection button 7 is a bottom plate forming the bottom of the vending machine main body 1.

[0005] The outer door 2 is attached to the vending machine main body 1 by an upper hinge 1.
The lower hinge 11 pivotally supports the upper and lower hinges. A lock mechanism (not shown) is provided on the right end side of the outer door 2 and can be fixed to the vending machine main body 1 and opened as required.

[0006] The refilling operation of the product is performed by opening the outer door 2 and the middle door 6 around the upper hinge 10 and the lower hinge 11 as axes.
Work such as adjustment of control devices is similarly performed by opening the outer door 2. The vending machine is installed on the installation surface 12, and in order to increase the sales opportunity of the stored products, it is necessary to store a large amount and various types of products. And its weight also tends to increase.

[0007] Therefore, the bottom plate 9 is a portion that receives the load of various devices attached to the vending machine and the bending and shear stress due to the torsional stress due to the opening and closing of the outer door 2, and is particularly required to have strength and rigidity.

Therefore, the vending machine uses the outer box 1 under its own weight.
In order to reduce the deformation of the outer box 1, the outer box 1 is reinforced so as to increase the strength of the bottom plate 9 thereof.
An example described in JP-A-134544 is a conventional example.

FIG. 12 is an exploded perspective view showing the structure of a bottom plate of a conventional vending machine, FIGS. 13 to 16 are assembly structure diagrams of the bottom plate of a conventional vending machine, FIG. 13 is a plan view, and FIG.
13 is a front view seen from the direction A in FIG. 13, and FIG.
16 is a sectional view taken along the line CC of FIG. 13, and FIG. 17 is a partial sectional view of a left front main part showing a mounting structure of the support legs of the conventional vending machine.

In FIGS. 12 to 17, reference numeral 13 denotes a reinforcing member for the bottom plate 9, which is formed by bending the front and rear ends of a steel plate in a vertical direction to provide bent portions 14, and provided with both side drawing portions 15 at both left and right ends. A horizontal portion 16 is provided at an upper end of the both-side narrowed portion 15, and a cylindrical narrowed portion 17 is provided at a central portion. An annular horizontal portion 18 is provided all around the upper end of the cylindrical narrowed portion 17.

A box-shaped bottom plate 9 made of a steel plate is placed on the reinforcing member 13 so as to cover the bottom plate 9 with its opening facing downward, and the two are welded and integrated to reinforce the bottom plate 9.
At this time, welding is performed using the horizontal portion 16 of the both-side drawing portion 15, the annular horizontal portion 18 of the cylindrical drawing portion 17, and the periphery of the bottom plate 9.

The bottom plate 9 is provided with four holes 19, one in each of the four corners, and the reinforcing member 13 is also provided with four holes 20, one in the vicinity of the four corners. After welding and integrating the holes 13, the holes 19 and 20 are provided in a concentric positional relationship.

Then, a leg nut 21 having a female thread is inserted through the holes 19 and 20 and attached. A support leg 22 which is a male screw is screwed into the leg nut 21. The support leg 22 has a head 23 at one end having a hexagonal nut shape, and
Since the tip of 3 has a flat shape at the receiving portion 24, the support leg 22 which is a male screw is tightened into the leg nut 21 by turning the head 23 with a tool, and the mounting surface 12 is set on the vending machine. The receiving section 24 supports the entire vending machine.

At this time, the work of turning the hexagonal nut-shaped head 23 with a tool requires a repetitive operation of turning the tool by a minimum angle of 60 °, hooking the tool on the hexagonal nut-shaped head 23, and turning the tool again. In this operation, the support leg 22 which is a male screw is tightened to the leg nut 21 at four places, and the length of each support leg 22 projecting downward from the bottom plate 9 is adjusted, so that the uneven mounting surface is formed. Install vending machines properly.

At this time, the total height of the vending machine is determined by the height of the vending machine from the receiving portion 24 at the position where the support leg 22 is tightened to fill the leg nut 21 and the head 23 contacts the reinforcing member 13. H.

[0016]

In order to reduce the deformation of the bottom plate 9 due to its own weight of the vending machine, it is necessary to suppress the torsional deformation of the bottom plate 9, and it is necessary to increase the thickness of the bottom plate 9 to increase the section coefficient for the torsion. Needless to say, it is effective to increase the height of the vending machine, or to increase the thickness of the bottom plate 9 in order to keep the overall height constant. There has been a problem that it is necessary to reduce the dimensions of other portions, such as reducing the height of the housing 3 to reduce the volume of the storage section 3.

The present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a vending machine which does not increase the overall height even if the thickness of the bottom plate is increased to reduce the deformation of the bottom plate. It is in.
