機械の故障と誤った判断を下す不都合が6つ九。Conventionally, vending machines insert coins or banknotes, select a product, and when the sales operation starts, the sales price is subtracted from the input amount, and if there is change, the next sales operation period until the end of dispensing change. All coins inserted by customers were returned by energizing the coin return electromagnet. However, in cases such as ticket vending machines or food vending machines, where there is a rush of use depending on the time of day, if the user searches for the outlet to take out the product or change immediately after making a selection operation, Later users often insert coins into the coins, thinking that they are no longer on sale. With conventional vending machines, coins are returned during the vending operation, so there is no chance of confusing the coins with the change of a previous user whose change has not yet been dispensed. There are six nine inconveniences that can lead to making wrong decisions.

Sales product price information corresponding to sales signals v1...V, which are outputted and generated by 1t, is introduced into the main calculation value #(2). Therefore, the main processing device 1 (2) calculates the remaining amount by subtracting the sales product portion from the input amount, and the comparison device (2) again compares this remaining amount with the product sales price information. At this time, if the remaining amount is less than the selling price of any of the products, a signal f is generated, and since the selling operation has already been performed and an output is generated in the storage device (to), an output is generated in AND (C3m). The control device (to) receives the control signal C1 manually.
is output, and the change dispensing control device (to) operates. The change dispensing control device outputs change dispensing information every time change is dispensed, and the subtraction signal generating device (b) introduces a subtraction signal corresponding to the amount of coins to be dispensed into the main processing unit (2). Change dispensing operations are performed until the remaining amount in the device reaches the mark ¥. Therefore, the control device (c) sells items until the sales start signal Vs is input and the main processing device (2) subtracts the sales items from the input amount or the calculation amount becomes "0" yen when change is paid out. It is said to be in operation. ' During this selling operation, the control device (to) sends control signals C,
During this time, the calculation signal generated in the calculation signal generator (1) when the next customer inserts a coin is input to the 161J calculation unit (3) and calculated. After that, when the operation class of the main processing unit (2) becomes "0" and the sales operation ends, the control signal 04 is output to the transfer device (5), and the calculation contents of the sub processing unit (3) are transferred to the main processing unit ( Transfer to 2).
