Description

  The present invention relates to a vending machine front cover mounted on a front surface of a vending machine, a showcase or the like, and more particularly to a vending machine front cover that can be easily mounted and cannot be easily removed.

  Generally, vending machines and showcases (hereinafter collectively referred to as “vending machines”) are transported using a hand-carrying device called a “cat” during installation or collection. In general, the vending machine is placed on a transporter with the front side facing down and transported to the installation location in this state.

  For this reason, it has been pointed out that the vending machine has a problem in that it cannot produce an impact vending machine with high decorativeness due to restrictions on the shape of the front side.

  In other words, in order to make a vending machine with impact, it is desirable to make a conspicuous decoration on the front side, and for this purpose, for example, a product advertisement having irregularities on the front surface or the front surface on the front side is desirable. For example, if the front surface is uneven, or if the front surface is bent toward the front, the portion where the unevenness is formed during transportation, or Since the curved portion is on the lower side, it is fully conceivable that the uneven surface and the curved surface are damaged by vibration during transportation.

  In addition, when installing and collecting vending machines, cranes and lifts may be used. For example, when a crane is used, a rope is hung on the vending machine, and the tip of the crane is hooked on this rope. Move and install while suspending the vending machine with a crane.At this time, if the front surface is uneven or if the front surface is curved toward the front, this uneven portion etc. If a rope is caught on the surface, the uneven surface may be broken. Furthermore, the worker may touch the vending machine to stop the swinging of the vending machine while it is suspended by the crane, but again, the vending machine generally has a weight of 400 kg or more. If the front surface is curved, or if the front surface is curved toward the front side and the operator touches the uneven surface, the uneven surface may break. Conceivable.

  For this reason, in conventional vending machines, the front surface is made as flat as possible for the purpose of minimizing damage during transportation, and in particular, the degree of freedom of decoration of the front surface As a result, the decoration could not be done freely, and there was a limit to the production of impact vending machines.

  In vending machines, product advertisements are generally displayed on the front door. Conventionally, product advertisements are displayed on the front door by painting, etc. When changing to this advertisement, at least the entire front door had to be repainted, which was troublesome and costly.

  This is also true when repairing a vending machine. That is, when repairing a vending machine, it is common to repaint all parts including scratched parts. Therefore, there was a problem that it took time and money to do so.

  Therefore, in the past, the present inventor can increase the degree of freedom of decoration on the front surface of the vending machine, making it an impact vending machine, and facilitating decoration changes, repairs, etc. For this purpose, we proposed a front cover for vending machines.
