Description

Máquina expendedora de comestibles calientes tales como pizzas. Vending machine for hot groceries such as pizzas.
La máquina a la que se refiere la presente invención es del tipo que, con la introducción de unas monedas, expende un comestible caliente y que está constituida por un armario metálico con una cámara refrigerada interior en la que se almacenan las correspondientes unidades del comestible a expender, adecuadamente preparadas con todos sus ingredientes con los que se pueden calentar, tostar o cocer, lo que se realiza con cada unidad del comestible en otra cámara de la máquina mediante el pertinente dispositivo instalado en la misma y del que es desplazado dicho comestible hasta un colector al que el usuario accede, para recogerlo, por una abertura de la puerta frontal que cierra el armario.The machine referred to in the present invention is of the type that, with the introduction of coins, dispenses a hot grocery and is constituted by a metal cabinet with an inner refrigerated chamber in which the corresponding grocery units are stored at to distribute, properly prepared with all its ingredients with which they can be heated, roasted or cooked, what is done with each unit of the edible in another chamber of the machine by means of the relevant device installed in it and from which said edible is moved to a collector that the user accesses, to pick it up, through an opening of the front door that closes the closet.
Los solicitantes de la presente patente de invención ya son también titulares de otras patentes sobre máquinas de dicho tipo, pero ninguna de ellas puede expender las pizzas, u otros comestibles análogos, en toda su amplia integridad y con la configuración circular que les es característica, lo cual demandan muchos consumidores que no se conforman con una configuración que no es la indicada y un tamaño que más bien parece una porción.Applicants of the present invention patent are also holders of other patents on machines of this type, but none of them can sell the pizzas, or other similar groceries, in all their wide integrity and with the circular configuration that is characteristic of them, This is demanded by many consumers who are not satisfied with a configuration that is not the one indicated and a size that looks more like a portion.
Es en razón de ello que se ha ideado la máquina objeto de la presente invención, la cual presenta el armario metálico dividido, por una pared intermedia, en dos cámaras, estando una de ellas refrigerada para almacenar los comestibles y comprendiendo una columna giratoria, accionable por medios motrices, a la que van fijadas radialmente varias sucesiones verticales de plataformas de configuración adecuada para sustentar los citados comestibles circulares, los cuales se disponen sobre ellas dentro de respectivas y convenientes bandejas.It is because of this that the machine object of the present invention has been devised, which presents the metal cabinet divided by an intermediate wall, into two chambers, one of them being refrigerated to store the groceries and comprising a rotating column, operable by motive means, to which several vertical successions of platforms of suitable configuration are radially fixed to support said circular edibles, the which are arranged on them within respective and convenient trays.
Esta cámara refrigerada está cerrada con una puerta que queda situada detrás de la puerta frontal que cierra el armario metálico y comprende también medios para recoger uno de los comestibles y desplazarlo, a través de una abertura de la pared intermedia, hasta la otra cámara en donde será cocido por un horno eléctrico instalado en la misma y de donde será desplazado hasta el colector para su recogida por parte del usuario.This refrigerated chamber is closed with a door that is located behind the front door that closes the metal cabinet and also includes means to collect one of the groceries and move it, through an opening in the intermediate wall, to the other chamber where It will be cooked by an electric oven installed in it and from where it will be moved to the collector for collection by the user.
Los indicados medios comprenden dos dispositivos empujadores y un elemento sustentador, yendo montado éste y uno de los dos dispositivos empujadores, a través de convenientes soportes, en un carro desplazable verticalmente por unas guías por la acción de medios motrices, permitiendo este carro la disposición del elemento sustentador y del dispositivo empujador a la altura del comestible a recoger, arrastrándolo el segundo de la correspondiente plataforma hasta el primero, del que, tras el correspondiente desplazamiento del carro hasta encontrar el otro dispositivo empujador, será desplazado por éste a la otra cámara. En esta cámara, el comestible es recibido por un soporte sobre el que queda dispuesto y que está enfrentado a la boca de un receptáculo conformado por el horno eléctrico; este receptáculo es desplazable sobre guías, por la acción de medios motrices, y avanza sobre dicho soporte hasta que el comestible y la parte del soporte sostenedora del mismo quedan introducidos en él, retirándose dicho receptáculo una vez cocido el comestible, y siendo finalmente desplazado éste hasta el colector a través de medios previstos en la indicada cámara. Ventajosamente, el elemento sustentador con el que se recoge el comestible de su plataforma y el soporte del mismo cuando se cuece en el horno pueden conformar cada uno dos a modo de repisas, situadas una por encima de la otra, para que la máquina recoja y cuezca, y consiguientemente expenda, dos comestibles al mismo tiempo, en cuyo caso el dispositivo empujador que los desplazará de una cámara a la otra también presentará dos palas de arraste .The indicated means comprise two pusher devices and a support element, this and one of the two pusher devices being mounted, through convenient supports, in a carriage vertically movable by guides by the action of driving means, this car allowing the arrangement of the support element and the pusher device at the height of the food to be picked up, dragging the second of the corresponding platform to the first, from which, after the corresponding movement of the carriage until the other pusher device is found, it will be moved by it to the other chamber. In this chamber, the edible is received by a support on which it is arranged and which faces the mouth of a receptacle formed by the electric oven; this receptacle is movable on guides, by the action of driving means, and advances on said support until the edible and the part of the support holder thereof are inserted into it, said receptacle being removed once the edible is cooked, and finally being displaced up to the collector through means provided in the indicated chamber. Advantageously, the support element with which the edible is collected from its platform and the support thereof when baked in the oven can each form two as shelves, located one above the other, so that the machine collects and Bake, and consequently sell, two groceries at the same time, in which case the pusher that will move them from one chamber to the other will also present two drag blades.
El otro dispositivo empujador puede continuar presentando una sola pala de arrastre y el indicado elemento sustentador ser desplazable verticalmente por su soporte, a través de unas guías y por la acción de medios motrices, para que sus dos repisas puedan ponerse sucesivamente a la altura de dicha única pala y recoger selectivamente dos comestibles de plataformas de distintas sucesiones verticales de las mismas, comprendiendo cada sucesión comestibles de distinto gusto al de los comestibles de las otras. Estas y otras características se desprenderán mejor de la descripción detallada que sigue, la cual, para facilitar su comprensión, se acompaña de dos láminas de dibujos en las que se ha representado un caso práctico de realización que se cita solamente a título de ejemplo no limitativo del alcance de la presente invención. En los dibujos:The other pushing device can continue to have a single drag blade and the indicated support element can be moved vertically by its support, through guides and by the action of driving means, so that its two shelves can be placed successively at the height of said support single shovel and selectively pick up two groceries from platforms of different vertical successions thereof, each succession comprising edibles of different tastes than the groceries of the other.
