【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、商品サンプルをサンプル台に支持して販売商品を展示する自動販売機の商品サンプル支持構造に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
従来、自動販売機の販売商品を展示する構造として、外扉の商品展示室にサンプル台を設け、このサンプル台に商品サンプルを支持する構造が一般的に採用されている。また、商品サンプルをサンプル台に支持する際は、商品サンプルの係合部をサンプル台の被係合部にはめ合わせて固定している。この係合部及び被係合部の構造として、ネジ構造や爪引っ掛け構造が一般的に採用されている。
【0003】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
ところで、通常、一台の自動販売機では特定の中身商品メーカの商品のみが販売されるため、商品サンプルの係合部やサンプル台の被係合部の形状、構造は、当該メーカ固有のものとなっている。
【0004】
これにより、当該自動販売機で他社メーカの商品を販売する必要が生じたときは、他社メーカの商品を自動販売機内に収納できたとしても、他社メーカの商品サンプルの係合部と当該メーカのサンプル台の被係合部が対応せず、商品サンプルが展示できないという問題点を有していた。
【0005】
本発明の目的は前記従来の課題に鑑み、商品サンプルが何れの種類のものであっても、商品サンプルをサンプル台に支持することができる自動販売機の商品サンプル支持構造を提供することにある。
【0006】
【課題を解決するための手段】
本発明は前記目的を達成するため、請求項1の発明は、商品サンプルの係合部であって商品サンプルの底面と間隔をおいて外側に延在した係止板をサンプル台の被係合部に係合して、商品サンプルをサンプル台に支持する自動販売機の商品サンプル支持構造において、上部には商品サンプルの係合部の係止板に係合するサンプル被係合部を、下部にはサンプル台の被係合部に係合するサンプル台係合部をそれぞれ有する筒状のアタッチメントを備え、サンプル被係合部は、サンプル被係合部の上部から略直角に内側に向かって延在し周方向に間隔をおいて多数形成するとともに商品サンプルの係合部の係止板商品サンプルの底面との間に挟み込まれる可撓性の被係合片を有する構造となっている。
【0007】
請求項1の発明によれば、商品サンプルの係合部とサンプル台の被係合部が対応しないときは、商品サンプルをアタッチメントを介してサンプル台に支持すればよい。
【0008】
請求項2の発明は、商品サンプルの係合部であって商品サンプルの底面と間隔をおいて外側に延在した係止板をサンプル台の被係合部に係合して、商品サンプルをサンプル台に支持する自動販売機の商品サンプル支持構造において、上部には商品サンプルの係合部の係止板に係合するサンプル被係合部を、下部にはサンプル台の被係合部に係合するサンプル台係合部をそれぞれ有する筒状のアタッチメントを備え、サンプル被係合部の一方にはサンプル被係合部の内側に向かって延在し商品サンプルの係合部の係止板商品サンプルの底面との間に挟み込まれるフランジ部を有するとともに、サンプル被係合部の他方には商品サンプルがサンプル被係合部に装着されたとき商品サンプルをフランジ部に向かって押圧する可撓性の押圧部材を形成した構造となっている。
【0009】
請求項2の発明によれば、商品サンプルとアタッチメントとの間に係合誤差があるときでも、押圧部材が商品サンプルを押圧保持するため、商品サンプルをアタッチメントに確実に保持することができる。
【0010】
【発明の実施の形態】
図1乃至図11は本発明に係る自動販売機の商品サンプル支持構造の第1実施形態を示すもので、図1は自動販売機の正面斜視図、図2は商品サンプルのサンプル台への組み付け斜視図、図3はサンプル台の被係合部を示す平面図、図4は一方の商品サンプルの一部省略正面図、図5は図4のAーA線矢視方向の断面図、図6は他方の商品サンプルの一部省略正面図、図7は図6のBーB線矢視方向の断面図、図8はアタッチメントの斜視図、図9はアタッチメントの正面図、図10は図9のCーC線矢視方向の断面図、図11は他方の商品サンプルがサンプル台に固定された状態を示す断面図である。
【0011】
自動販売機の商品サンプル支持構造を説明するにあたり、まず、自動販売機の概略構造を図1を参照して説明する。自動販売機1は外扉2の外面にコイン投入口2a、紙幣投入口2b、コイン返却口2c、商品取出口2d、商品選択ボタン2eがそれぞれ設置されている。また、外扉2の内側には透明板2fで覆われた商品展示室2gが形成されており、この展示室2gにはサンプル台5に固定された商品サンプル3,4が展示されており、各商品サンプル3,4が各商品選択ボタン2eに対応するよう配置されている。このように構成することにより、貨幣を投入口2a,2bから投入し、その後、購入を希望する商品を商品サンプル3,4を見て選び、これに対応する商品選択ボタン2eを押すことにより、商品取出口2dから商品を購入することができる。
【0012】
以上のような構成された自動販売機において、本実施形態では商品サンプル3,4のサンプル台5への支持構造に特徴を有する。まず、商品サンプル3,4の構造を説明する。この商品サンプル3,4は図4乃至図7に示すように実際の商品に似せた商品ダミーであり、樹脂等により円筒状に形成されている。
【0013】
商品サンプル3,4のうち一方の商品サンプル3は、自動販売機1に当初から設置されているものであり、図4及び図5に示すように、底面31には下方に突出した小径の係合部32が形成されている。この係合部32の突出部321の外面には方形状の係止板322が突設されている。この係止板322は突出部321の中心を軸として互いに対向するよう2個配置されている。また、各係止板322は商品サンプル3の底面31から僅かに間隔をおいて配置されており、その間隔はサンプル台5の板厚とほぼ同一寸法に形成されている。また、突出部321の上縁には位置決め部材323を形成している。この位置決め部材323は板バネ状に形成され、位置決め部材323の先端突起323aが後述する嵌め込み穴511の周縁に沿って移動でき、突起係止穴513に嵌め込まれるようになっている。
【0014】
商品サンプル3,4のうち他方の商品サンプル4は、自動販売機1にその後に置き換えれる他社商品サンプルである。この商品サンプル4は、図6及び図7に示すように、底面41には商品サンプル3と同様に下方に突出した係合部42を有している。この商品サンプル4が前記商品サンプル3と異なるところは、突出部421には対向する2個の対向係止板422の外に、各係止板422の間(各係止板422から90度の角度位置)に更にもう一つの係止板422を有すること、また、この係止板422の上面に前記先端突起323aの代わりに上方突起422aが形成されていることであり、その他の構成は前記商品サンプル3と同様である。
【0015】
次に、サンプル台5の構造を図2及び図3を参照して説明する。サンプル台5は横長方形状の箱体で構成されたもので、上板には横方向に複数の被係合部51が穿設されている。各被係合部51は円形状に形成された嵌め込み穴511と、嵌め込み穴511の周縁に形成された方形状の係止板挿入穴512と、嵌め込み穴511の周縁に形成された突起係止穴513とから構成されている。
【0016】
ここで、嵌め込み穴511の径は商品サンプル3の突出部321の外形よりも多少大きく、また、係止板挿入穴512も同様に商品サンプル3の係止板322より多少大きく、これにより、商品サンプル3の突出部321は嵌め込み穴511に嵌め込まれ、各係止板322は係止板挿入穴512に嵌め込まれるようになっている。また、突起係止穴513には商品サンプル3の先端突起323aが嵌め込まれるようになっている。
【0017】
このように一方の商品サンプル3の係合部32がサンプル台5の被係合部51と対応するよう予め自動販売機1が形成されているため、図2に示すように、商品サンプル3がサンプル台5に直接に取付けることができる。
【0018】
一方、後に置き換えられる商品サンプル4は係止板422が3個形成され、サンプル台4の被係合部51と対応しないため、商品サンプル4はサンプル台4に直接に取り付けることができない。
【0019】
そこで、本実施形態では図8乃至図10に示すアタッチメント6を形成した。以下、アタッチメント6の構造を説明する。アタッチメント6はポリアセタール樹脂にて略偏平筒状に形成したもので、上部は大径に形成し、置き換え用の商品サンプル4の係合部42が係合されるサンプル被係合部61を形成し、一方、下部は小径に形成し、サンプル台5の被係合部51に係合するサンプル台係合部62を係止している。
【0020】
サンプル被係合部61はその上端に内側に向かって所定間隔をおいて多数の被係合片611を形成しており、各係合片611全体の内径が商品サンプル4の突出部421の外径よりも僅かに大きくなっており、突出部421が嵌め込み可能となっている。また、各係合片611は各々小片となっているため、商品サンプル4の係合部42をサンプル被係合部61に嵌め込んだ際、係止板422が各係合片611を撓ませ、係止板422が係合片611の下側に移動するようになっており、これにより、係止板422と商品サンプル4の底面41との間に係合片611が挟み込まれるようになっている。
【0021】
サンプル台係合部62は前記一方の商品サンプル3の係合部32と同様の構造となっている。即ち、図9及び図10に示すように、突出部621、係止板622、位置決め部材623及び先端突起623aが、前記突出部321、係止板322、位置決め部材323及び先端突起323aと同様の構造となっており、サンプル台係合部62がサンプル台5の被係合部51に係合するようになっている。
【0022】
第1実施形態によれば、置き換えられる商品サンプル4の係合部42とサンプル台5の被係合部51が対応しない形状となっているときでも、図2に示すように、サンプル台5の被係合部51にアタッチメント6の係合部62を係合し、その後、商品サンプル4の係合部42をアタッチメント6のサンプル被係合部61に係合すれば、商品サンプル3を商品サンプル4に置き換えることができる。
【0023】
なお、アタッチメント6と商品サンプル4の係合部42との係合力は係合片611が撓むため、さほど大きなものではないが、外部からの振動衝撃に対して商品サンプル4を保持できれば良く、格別な係合力を必要とするものではない。
【0024】
一方、各係合片611の撓み作用により、商品サンプル4の係止板422の個数及び配置が何れであってもこれを保持できるため、多種多様の商品サンプルに対応したアタッチメント6となっている。
【0025】
図12及び図13は本発明に係る自動販売機の商品サンプル支持構造の第2実施形態を示すものである。第2実施形態に係るアタッチメント7は、前記アタッチメント6と同様にポリアセタール樹脂にて略偏平筒状に形成したもので、上部には置き換え用の商品サンプル4の係合部42が係合されるサンプル被係合部71を形成し、一方、下部にはサンプル台5の被係合部51に係合するサンプル台係合部72を形成している。
【0026】
サンプル被係合部71はその上端には内側に向かって延在されたフランジ部711を有しており、フランジ部711には対称となる位置に方形状の2個の係止板挿入穴712を形成する一方、各係止板挿入穴712の間(各係止板挿入穴712から90度の角度位置)に更にもう一つの係止板挿入穴712有している。また、フランジ部711の各係止板挿入穴712の間には突起係止穴713が形成されている。即ち、このサンプル被係合部71は他方の商品サンプル4の係合部42に完全に対応している。これにより、図12に示すよに、商品サンプル部4の係止板422を係止板挿入穴712に挿入し、更にこれを所定角度回転するときは、商品サンプル4の底面41と各係止板422との間にフランジ部711が嵌り、更に、上方突起422aが突起係止穴713に嵌り込み、これにより、商品サンプル4が強固に保持されるようになっている。
【0027】
また、サンプル被係合部71には押圧部材73を形成している。この押圧部材73は横長環状に形成したもので可撓性を有している。また、押圧部材73の一部がフランジ部711の内側に達しており、商品サンプル4が装着されるとき、この商品サンプル4の側面が押圧されフランジ部711の内周縁に向かって押圧されるようになっている。
【0028】
一方、サンプル台係合部72は図示しないが前記アタッチメント6と同様に構成され、サンプル台5の被係合部51に嵌り込むようになっている。
【0029】
なお、第2実施形態に係るアタッチメント7は、図13に示すように、2つ割りに形成され、サンプル被係合部71に形成されたフック74を引っ掛け部75に係止するとき、図12に示すように、環状のアタッチメント7が構成される。
【0030】
第2実施形態によれば、前述したように、アタッチメント7のサンプル被係合部71が他方の商品サンプル4の係合部42に完全に対応しているため、商品サンプル4が強固に保持されることとなる。
【0031】
また、押圧部材73により商品サンプル4が押圧されるため、商品サンプル4の径や係合部42が多少小さくなっているときでも、商品サンプル4の側面がフランジ部711に押圧され、商品サンプル4のガタが完全に防止される。
【0032】
なお、前記第1実施形態及び第2実施形態では他方の商品サンプル4の係合部42に係止板422を有し、これをアタッチメント6,7に係合するようになっているが、商品サンプル4の係合部がネジ式となっているときは(図示しない)、アタッチメント6,7の被係合部もこれに対応させてネジ式とすればよい。
【0033】
【発明の効果】
以上説明したように、請求項1の発明によれば、商品サンプルの係合部とサンプル台の被係合部が対応しないときでも、アタッチメントを介して商品サンプルをサンプル台に支持すればく、各種商品サンプルをサンプル台に支持できるという利点を有する。
【0034】
請求項2の発明によれば、商品サンプルとアタッチメントとの間に係合誤差があるときでも、押圧部材が商品サンプルを押圧保持するため、商品サンプルをアタッチメントに確実に保持することができる。

[0012]
In the vending machine configured as described above, the present embodiment is characterized by a support structure for the product samples 3 and 4 to the sample table 5. First, the structure of the product samples 3 and 4 will be described. The product samples 3 and 4 are product dummies resembling actual products as shown in FIGS. 4 to 7, and are formed in a cylindrical shape by resin or the like.
[0013]
One of the product samples 3 and 4 is installed in the vending machine 1 from the beginning. As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the bottom surface 31 has a small-diameter engagement projecting downward. A joint portion 32 is formed. A rectangular locking plate 322 protrudes from the outer surface of the protruding portion 321 of the engaging portion 32. Two locking plates 322 are arranged so as to face each other about the center of the protruding portion 321 as an axis. In addition, each of the locking plates 322 is disposed at a slight distance from the bottom surface 31 of the product sample 3, and the interval is formed to have substantially the same dimension as the plate thickness of the sample table 5. A positioning member 323 is formed on the upper edge of the protrusion 321. The positioning member 323 is formed in a plate spring shape, and a tip protrusion 323a of the positioning member 323 can move along a peripheral edge of a fitting hole 511 described later, and is fitted into the protrusion locking hole 513.
[0014]
The other product sample 4 among the product samples 3 and 4 is a product sample of another company that is subsequently replaced by the vending machine 1. As shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, the product sample 4 has an engaging portion 42 that protrudes downward on the bottom surface 41 as in the product sample 3. This product sample 4 is different from the product sample 3 in that the protrusion 421 has two opposing locking plates 422 opposed to each other and between the locking plates 422 (at 90 degrees from each locking plate 422). (An angular position) is further provided with another locking plate 422, and an upper protrusion 422a is formed on the upper surface of the locking plate 422 instead of the tip protrusion 323a. The same as the product sample 3.
[0015]
Next, the structure of the sample stage 5 will be described with reference to FIGS. The sample stage 5 is constituted by a horizontal rectangular box, and a plurality of engaged portions 51 are formed in the upper plate in the horizontal direction. Each engaged portion 51 has a fitting hole 511 formed in a circular shape, a square-shaped locking plate insertion hole 512 formed in the periphery of the fitting hole 511, and a protrusion locking formed in the periphery of the fitting hole 511 And a hole 513.
[0016]
Here, the diameter of the fitting hole 511 is slightly larger than the outer shape of the projecting portion 321 of the product sample 3, and the locking plate insertion hole 512 is also somewhat larger than the locking plate 322 of the product sample 3. The protruding portion 321 of the sample 3 is fitted in the fitting hole 511, and each locking plate 322 is fitted in the locking plate insertion hole 512. Further, the tip protrusion 323a of the product sample 3 is fitted into the protrusion locking hole 513.
[0017]
In this way, since the vending machine 1 is formed in advance so that the engaging portion 32 of one product sample 3 corresponds to the engaged portion 51 of the sample table 5, as shown in FIG. It can be attached directly to the sample stage 5.
[0018]
On the other hand, since the product sample 4 to be replaced later has three locking plates 422 and does not correspond to the engaged portion 51 of the sample table 4, the product sample 4 cannot be directly attached to the sample table 4.
[0019]
Therefore, in this embodiment, the attachment 6 shown in FIGS. 8 to 10 is formed. Hereinafter, the structure of the attachment 6 will be described. The attachment 6 is made of polyacetal resin in a substantially flat cylindrical shape, the upper part is formed in a large diameter, and a sample engaged part 61 is formed to which the engaging part 42 of the replacement product sample 4 is engaged. On the other hand, the lower part is formed with a small diameter, and the sample stage engaging part 62 that engages with the engaged part 51 of the sample stage 5 is locked.
[0020]
Sample engaged portion 61 forms a plurality of engagement tabs 611 at a predetermined interval inwardly at its upper end, each of the engaging piece 611 whole inner diameter of the protrusion 421 Product Sample 4 It is slightly larger than the outer diameter, and the protrusion 421 can be fitted. Further, since each of the engaging piece 611 is respectively a small piece, when fitting the engagement portion 42 of the product sample 4 to sample the engaged portion 61, the engaging plate 422 each be engaging piece 611 It flexed, locking plates 422 are adapted to move to the lower side of the engaging piece 611, thereby, the engaging piece 611 is sandwiched between the bottom surface 41 of the locking plate 422 and the product sample 4 It is supposed to be.
[0021]
The sample stage engaging part 62 has the same structure as the engaging part 32 of the one product sample 3. That is, as shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, the protruding portion 621, the locking plate 622, the positioning member 623, and the tip protrusion 623a are the same as the protruding portion 321, the locking plate 322, the positioning member 323, and the tip protrusion 323a. The structure is such that the sample table engaging portion 62 is engaged with the engaged portion 51 of the sample table 5.
[0022]
According to the first embodiment, even when the engaging portion 42 of the product sample 4 to be replaced and the engaged portion 51 of the sample base 5 are incompatible shapes, as shown in FIG.
