<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a control device allowing continuous vending in an automatic vending machine capable of vending commodities without cash by utilizing a portable terminal. <P>SOLUTION: When commodities stored in the automatic vending machine can be vended by a prepaid balance after vending a commodity and user ID information inputted again by using an ID information input means 4 coincides with user ID information stored in a storage means 9, an arithmetic operation control part 10a allows a commodity vending control means 5 to vend the commodities. When the user ID information is inputted again, the arithmetic operation control part 10a judges that the same portable terminal owner continuously wishes the purchase of a commodity and allows the vending of the commodity. Consequently, continuous vending can be performed by a simple procedure, and since communication with an information center is not performed until the end of continuous vending, a communication cost can be reduced. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2003,JPO |
