Abstract

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an anti-theft structure of an automatic vending machine which can securely prevent an illegal act by the cutting of the support shaft of an external door. SOLUTION: A cover member 5 covering a pin 3 which connects the external door 2 and an automatic vending machine main body 1 together is provided and then the pin 3 is not viewed from outside, so if anybody tries to do, for example, an illegal act by cutting the pin 3, the presence of the pin 3 can not be confirmed with ease, thereby obtaining the anti-theft effect that the illegal act is given up. Even if the presence of the pin 3 is known, the gap between the upper-end surface of the external door 2 and a support plate 4 is covered with a lower front wall part 5b and a lower side wall part 5d, so the pin 3 can securely be prevented from being cut by inserting a tool, etc., into the gap A.
