1 is that when a customer inserts money or a medium such as a card and selects noodles for sale,
It is a reception device as a reception means that issues a sales order card and delivers a sales command to the processing and cooking device 2, and has a coin insertion slot 3, a card / banknote insertion slot 4 and a plurality of noodles provided for each noodle on the front surface. Selection button 5, this selection button 5
A card sales port 6 for issuing an ordering card for the noodles selected by is provided.

That is, when the accepting device 1 is inserted from the coin insertion slot 3 or the insertion slot 4 with coins or bills or cards corresponding to a predetermined amount of merchandise that can be purchased, or a combination thereof, a product selection operation becomes possible. When one of the selection buttons 5 is selected by the customer, the type data of the selected product, the order number, etc. are written and stored, and the order card with the product name, order number, etc. is printed to the card sales port 6. A sales command for sending out and operating the processing and cooking device 2 is sent out.

The processing and cooking device 2 includes a reception device 1 and a reception device 42 described later.
It is placed in the cooking chamber 20 provided between
Through the transparent panel 21 provided on the front of the customer, the customer can see it from the front.

Further, the processing and cooking apparatus 2 is made by the noodle making machine 7 as a food making machine for making udon noodles, the noodle making machine 8 as a food making machine for making buckwheat noodles, and the noodle making machines 7, 8 respectively. The boiling apparatus 9 is provided as a first cooking apparatus for boiling and cooking the raw noodles, and the cleaning apparatus 10 as a second cooking apparatus for washing the boiled noodles boiled by the boiling apparatus 9 with cold water.

Noodle making machines 7 and 8 are arranged on the rear side of the boiler 9 and
The flour and kneading water are mixed for each meal to produce noodle dough, and the produced noodle dough is formed into noodle strings and sent out from the delivery conveyor 11 to the front side boiler 9.

The boiler 9 is arranged on the front side of the noodle making machines 7 and 8 so that it can be seen from the front through the transparent panel 21.
A large number of baskets 14 are suspended in the boiling water of the boiling water tank 13, and a rotary type conveying device 15 for tact movement by one basket is provided.
The noodle strings sent from 1 are received in the basket 14, and the boiled noodles are moved to a predetermined delivery position where they are delivered to the cleaning device 10.
By opening the bottom part of the basket 14, the boiled boiled noodles are delivered to the cleaning device 10.

The basket 14 is made of a plate or the like having a net or a large number of water holes opened so that the stored boiled noodles can be washed and cooked, and the bottom portion is openable and closable so that the noodles can be discharged from the bottom portion. , Always closed by spring elasticity so that noodles do not fall.

Also, the udon and soba sent out in the basket 14 are
It is set to be boiled when it is cooked while being transferred by the transport device 15 and moved to a predetermined delivery position where it is delivered to the cleaning device 10. It should be noted that this setting can be set depending on the loading position at which the udon and soba are loaded into the basket 14 from the delivery conveyor 11 of the noodle making machines 7 and 8, and the transport time by the tact movement of the transport device 15.

The cleaning device 10 is juxtaposed on the receiving device 42 side of the boiler 9 and is arranged so as to be located on the front side in the cooking chamber 20 along with the boiler 9 and through the transparent panel 21 to the front side. It is visible from.

In the cleaning device 10, a large number of baskets 37 are hung and arranged, and a rotary transfer device 38 for tactually moving one basket is provided in the center of the cleaning tank 39. The basket 37 is rotationally driven in synchronization with the device 15. Then, at the delivery position of the boiling device 9, the boiled noodles received from the basket 14 of the boiling device 9 into the basket 37 are washed with cold water discharged from the washing shower 40 during the transportation by the transportation device 38,
The container is delivered to the delivery position to the delivery device 41.

The container delivery device 41 is arranged between the cleaning device 10 and the receiving device 42 and is visible from the front through the transparent panel 21, and the boiled noodles are matched with the boiled noodles discharged from the basket 37 of the cleaning device 10. The container A for storage is delivered and the container A containing the boiled noodles is transferred to the stocker device 43 arranged behind the receiving device 42.

The receiving device 42 displays the order numbers of the plurality of container noodles stored in the stocker device 43 on the display device 44 to notify the completion of the product, and when the customer's order card is inserted into the card insertion port 45. The corresponding noodle-containing container A stored in the stocker device 43 is delivered to the outlet 46, and the noodle soup supplying device 47 supplies the noodle soup to the container A.

On the other hand, an air duct 50 is provided above the boiling device 9 to collect steam generated from the boiling water in the boiling water tank 13 to prepare a cooking chamber.
20 It is designed to exhaust to the outside and a transparent panel 21
An air blower opening 51 is provided along the lower edge of the back surface of the transparent panel 21 to blow air from the air blower opening 51 toward the back surface of the transparent panel 21 to form an air curtain on the back surface of the transparent panel 21.
I try not to steam.

Therefore, through the transparent panel 21, the noodle strings are delivered from the delivery conveyor 11 of the noodle making machines 7 and 8 to the basket 14 at the predetermined position of the boiling device 9, and the noodle strings stored in the basket 14 are boiled in a boiling water tank. The cold water discharged from the washing shower 40 in the basket 37, which is tact-moved in the washing tank 39, is the boiled noodles boiled and cooked in the process of tact movement in the tact 13 and boiled and cooked in the washing device 39. It is possible to see the pattern that is washed by and the pattern that the washed boiled noodles are stored in the container A.

That is, the customer who has performed the food purchase operation with the reception device 1 is
