摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To reduce variations in temperature of commodities by uniforming directions and quantities of air blown out from a shooter. SOLUTION: A vending machine comprises commodity racks having functions of vertically storing commodities and sequentially carrying out them downward and being arranged in a plurality of rows in directions of right and left and multiply arranged forward and backward in a commodity storage room formed inside a case of a main body to be made as a heat insulating housing; a shooter carrying out commodities positioned below the racks and cut out from the racks to a commodity outlet and of which the plate face is provided with a plurality of air holes; a heat exchange chamber positioned below the shooter and having a fan to blow heated or cooled air; and a circulation duct disposed at rear part of the storage room and communicating between the inside of the storage room and the fan. The vending machine has a shielding member to shield air blowing out from a side end of the shooter and forms an air ejecting space by the shooter and the shielding member and instales a barrier plate almost vertically arranged inside the air space and in front of the fan.
