制するアームを扉と本体間に渡って取り付けている。The front door is rotatably supported on one side by a main body, and is used to open the front door when replenishing products or performing maintenance. When the front door is turned, the operation becomes difficult and dangerous. For example, as shown in Japanese Utility Model Laid-Open Publication No. 1-150782 (E05C17 / 28), an arm for controlling the rotation of the door is referred to as a door. Installed across the body.

うにしていた。In this publication, one end of the arm is rotatably supported by the door, and the other end is slidably engaged with a guide groove formed in a groove frame attached to the main body. ing. A plurality of holes are formed at predetermined intervals in the guide groove, and another groove frame is constantly pressed against the other end of the arm by a spring, and the other end of the arm (the cylindrical portion) is placed in any of the holes. ), The door can be stopped at a plurality of rotation angles according to the installation state of the vending machine.

のとなるため、バネ力の調整も難しくなる。However, in such a configuration, the structure becomes extremely complicated, causing a rise in cost and a failure easily occurring. Also, since the other end of the arm is always pressed by both groove frames, if the spring force is too strong, the arm cannot be moved smoothly, and the opening and closing of the door becomes heavy, and conversely if the spring force is weak. This time, the other end of the arm easily comes off the hole, which is dangerous, and it is difficult to adjust the spring force.

Then, the groove 26 of the arm member 24 is engaged with the pin member 42, and in this state, the arm member 24 is rotatable and movable. The head of the pin member 42 is configured to be wider than the width of the groove 26 and not easily come off. Each of the locking portions 27 to 29 is formed to have such a size that the pin member 42 can enter.

前面扉３は安定的に９０度の開放状態を維持される。In this state, as shown in FIG. 4, the front door 3 is stopped while being rotated by about 90 degrees. Also, the pin member 42
Is pressed by the elastic bending portion 38 of the spring member 34, so that it is securely engaged with the locking portion 28,
The front door 3 is stably maintained at an open state of 90 degrees.

し、最終的に図２の状態に復帰できる。When the front door 3 is closed, for example, when the arm member 24 in the state of FIG. 4 is pressed toward the main body 2 with a foot, the pin member 42 resists the urging force (spring force) of the spring member 34. Then, it is easily detached from the locking portion 28. And
By rotating the front door 3 counterclockwise in FIG.
The pin member 42 moves again in the direction of the support pin 23 in the groove 26, and can finally return to the state of FIG.

Place it in the hole 31 with screws. This allows
When the front door 3 is rotated in the opening direction, the pin member 42 is pressed into the locking portion 27 by the elastic bending portion 36 of the spring member 34 in the same manner as described above, and is engaged. . In this state, the front door 3 is stopped at a rotation angle of about 75 degrees as shown in FIG.
