By fitting with the upper cylinder 1, etc., it is attached to the upper cylinder 1 etc. in a non-rotatable manner.

Next, the method of use and operation of an embodiment of the Omikuji (fortune lottery) vending machine constructed as described above will be described.

First, in order to store M2 products such as spherical capsule-shaped fortunes in this vending machine, turn the whole thing upside down and then open the top corner nut 8.
7 using a dedicated upper angle wrench to separate the lower cylinder 82 and lower case 84 from the upper cylinder 1 and the like above. and,
The plug 75 fitted into the product supply hole 74 of the fixed platen 70 may be removed, and the product M may be inserted through the product supply hole 74. At this time, as described above, the action plate 55 is in the standby position, and the product insertion part 56 is vertically aligned with the product supply hole 74, so the product M is pushed through the product insertion part 56 and placed in the middle receiver 14.
falls into the fall guide 18 of. Subsequently, the part M passes through the through hole 15 of the intermediate receiver 14 and descends while moving spirally through the darkness of the storage plate 13. In addition, in this example, there are 10 or more products M6 on the blue pipe board 13 and the middle receiver 14VC.
It can be stored.

Then, when the vending machine is reassembled and erected, the product M at the lowest position in the workpiece 9 shown in FIG.

In this way, in this embodiment, the products M such as fortune slips are stored in a spiral shape on the storage plate 13, so the scale is not able to efficiently store a large number of products Mi in the upper tube 1. The stored products M can be smoothly moved downward.

Further, since the storage plate 13 is a semicircular flat plate, the temporary storage 13, the pillars 4, and the upper cover 3 can be easily formed integrally using a mold using a mold.

Next, in order to discharge the stored products M such as fortune slips one by one, coins 02 are first inserted into the slot 2 of the upper cylinder 1 from slightly diagonally above. At this time, coins having a thickness or diameter larger than the opening size of the input slot 2 cannot be inserted and are therefore rejected. The inserted coin C passes through the coin introduction port 33 of the coin feeding member 30, as shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, and begins to slide on the oblique portion 31'f.

Here, if the same coin C is an invalid coin OB having a smaller diameter than a predetermined proper coin (for example, a 100 yen coin), the coin OB is penetrated through the sorting hole 34 and falls while being guided by the falling guide 35. . At this time, as described above, since the coin penetrating portion 58 of the action plate 55 and the drop hole 73 of the fixed plate 70 correspond vertically, the incorrect coin CB is in the standby position. The product passes through the penetration part 5B and the drop hole 73, and is discharged outward from the product discharge member 79 below the fixed platen 70.

In addition, even if the coin is an invalid coin CB, if it is thrown in after tilting the entire machine completely backwards, it will not enter the sorting hole 34 but will pass backwards over the top of the sorting hole 34.
In this case, as the vending machine is turned on, the locking piece 42 rotates forward relative to the mounting piece 39, as shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG. The unsuitable coin OB comes into contact with the locking piece 42 and is stopped, and eventually falls through the sorting hole 34 downward.

Further, when a proper coin OA is inserted, the coin OA completely passes through the sorting hole 34'k, and further slides the entire slanted portion 31 to reach the feed hole 36. And the same feed hole 3
6 and the feed guide 31 and fall, and are located in the coin insertion part 51 of the operation board 55 in the standby position. At this time, if the coin insertion part 51 of the rotary ring 45 corresponds to the engagement recess 49 of the rotary ring 45, the coin CA will be inserted between them, but they must correspond. In this case, the coin OA remains on the coin insertion portion 57 and is on standby.

In this way, in this embodiment, by providing all the coin feeding members 30, the unsuitable coins CB can be reliably removed, and the suitable coins O
Only A can be selected.

Next, when the rotating ring 45 is manually rotated clockwise in a plane, a ratchet mechanism consisting of the locking portion 47 of the rotating link 45 and the temporary spring 53 is activated, and the rotating ring 45 is rotated in a stepwise manner. Rotate around the target. Here, as described above, when the coin insertion part 57 of the action plate 55 and the engagement recess 49 of the rotation ring 45 do not engage and the coin OA is not inserted between them, the rotation ring 45 Even if it rotates, the action plate 55 does not rotate and remains in the standby position! It is in 1.

Then, as described above, the coin OA is inserted between the coin insertion part 57 and the engagement recess 49 in advance, or as the rotation ring 45 rotates, the engagement recess 49 is inserted into the coin insertion part 57.
Correspondingly, when the coin OA is inserted between them, the rotary ring 45 and the action plate 55 are held together via the coin CAB as shown in FIG.
It comes to rotate together with the rotating ring 45 against the spring force of , and the product M fitted into the product insertion part 56 also moves together.

Further, when the rotation ring 45 is moved together, the ball fitting part 56 of the action plate 55 which is rotated together moves vertically with the drop hole 13 of the fixed plate 70 (as described above, which does not rotate). Therefore, the product M that has been inserted into the product insertion portion 56 passes through the drop hole 13 and falls. The product ¥ is then discharged forward by the product discharge member 79 located below the fixed platen 70.

In this manner, in this embodiment, the product M4, such as a fortune-telling ticket, can be discharged just by rotating the rotary ring 45. Furthermore, since the discharging is performed using a compact rotating mechanism, the entire vending machine can be made more compact than ever before.

Furthermore, when the rotating ring 45 is rotated slightly, the coin insertion part 57 of the action plate 55 corresponds vertically to the drop hole 76 of the fixed plate 70, so that the coin penetrating part 51 and the engagement recess 49 l' 1lIIIl/! : The inserted coin OA passes through the drop hole 16 and falls, and is stored in the lower case 84. When the coin OA falls in this manner and the engagement between the action plate 55 and the rotation ring 45 is released, the action plate 5b is rotated back to the standby position by the spring force of the coil spring 62.

Then, the lowest product M is inserted into the product insertion portion 56, and the next operation VC@ is performed.

Note that if the purchaser of the product M such as a fortune-telling ticket does not fully rotate the rotating ring 45 after ejecting the product M as described above, the coin OA remains in the coin insertion portion 57 and is inserted into the lower case 84. Don't fall. However, the next purchaser purchased the rotating ring 4.
When rotating 5, the coin OA immediately moves to the lower case 8.
It falls to 4, so it's not a problem at all.

In this way, one product discharge operation is completed. vCU that replenishes parts M and collects stored coins CA2;
Remove the upper corner nut 87 using the exclusive upper corner wrench, and
As shown in FIG. 5, the lower cylinder 82 and the lower case 84 may be separated from the upper direction 1 and the like. As described above, in this embodiment, since the trap uses a special upper corner hole to store the lower case 84, etc., it cannot be removed with a general wrench, and the stored products M such as coins OA and fortune slips cannot be removed. You can completely prevent it from being stolen.

Next, the close contact coil 10 that has been inserted into the recess 9 of the upper lid 3 is
To attach the artificial flower 11 to the holder, simply insert the locking part 12 at the lower end of the artificial flower 11 into the contact coil 10. By doing so, as described above, the tip of the locking portion 12 will be aligned with the bonded coil 10.
It will lock in the recess between the lines (Fig. 4), and the deeper you insert it, the deeper it will lock. On the other hand, the artificial flower 11 cannot be removed by simply pulling it due to the locking. Therefore,
The artificial flower 11 is removed by rotating the artificial flower 11 and screwing the locking part 12 back from the close contact coil 10.

Therefore, it is not a scale to which the artificial flower 11 can be easily attached, and since ordinary people do not know how to remove the artificial flower 11, there is little risk of it being stolen.

Also, as mentioned above, all the artificial flowers that have never been seen before will be installed in the machines selling fortune tickets. ! : Because it is sea urchin, it has a gorgeous appearance and can be used to decorate tables, etc.
It can also attract customers' attention.

It should be noted that this explanation is not limited to the structure of the described embodiment, and it is also possible to arbitrarily change the shape, structure, and assembly of each part without departing from the gist of the present invention.

As described in detail above, the present invention allows a vending machine that sells all products such as C Rio fortunes to be operated manually by inserting all coins and performing a certain operation. Rotating ring 45 that moves together
A working plate 55 is disposed inside the working plate 55, and a fixed plate 70 is arranged below the working plate 55, and the rotating ring 45 and the working plate 5 are connected to each other.
5 and 5 rotate together by inserting a coin OA between them, and when the operating plate 55 and the fixed plate 70 are at a fixed position relative to each other, a product such as a fortune slip passes through them and falls. By completely forming the same action plate 55 and fixed plate 70, it is possible to easily eject the product by simply rotating the rotary ring, and it also has excellent effects that can be made very compact. do.
