<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a simply-structured vending machine with stable quality to achieve commodity delivery in a limited space. <P>SOLUTION: A vending machine has commodity guide parts 118 at side parts of a chute 108 such that the commodity guide parts 118 form an inclined plane becoming wider from a deep side to the front to guide a commodity to a center part. Vertical planes 118a are formed between the center part of the chute 108 and the commodity guide parts 118. Along the vertical planes 118a, sheets 126 with higher slidability are arranged. When a commodity 132 is delivered along the commodity guide parts 118, the commodity contacts and slides on the sheets 126, and thereby slidability of the commodity can be improved. In addition, the commodity can be delivered to a taking-out port side with higher delivery performance even in the same space. Therefore, the chute can be configured by a simple structure even in a limited space without using a special apparatus and stable quality can be secured at low cost. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2012,JPO&INPIT |
