The set contents include, for example, in which product storage the corresponding product is stored (storage number setting), whether the product is a cold product or a hot product (product cold / temperature setting), The product type (coffee type, juice type, tea type) or the like can be set, and various data set by the product code setting unit 14 are stored in the setting data storage unit 15.

待機状態において、人体検知手段10により、自動販売機本体1の販売対応面2の前方を検知領域とした範囲内に人がいるかどうか判断する(STEP1)。検知領域内に人がいないと判断した時は、待機状態のままで、フレーバ部3の照明手段4にて、全フレーバ部3の照明を消灯する(STEP2)。人体検知手段10の検知領域内に人がいると判断した時はSTEP3へ進み、外気温度検知手段12にて、自動販売機周辺温度が何度か判定する。外気温度が高温(例えば、25度以上)と判断した時は、設定データ記憶手段15に記憶されている各フレーバ部3に設定されている商品の中からコールド商品を抽出し該当の照明手段4を点灯させる(STEP4)。   In the standby state, the human body detection means 10 determines whether or not there is a person within the range where the front of the sales corresponding surface 2 of the vending machine body 1 is a detection area (STEP 1). When it is determined that there is no person in the detection area, the illumination unit 4 of the flavor unit 3 turns off the illumination of all the flavor units 3 in the standby state (STEP 2). When it is determined that there is a person in the detection area of the human body detection means 10, the process proceeds to STEP 3 and the outside air temperature detection means 12 determines the temperature around the vending machine several times. When it is determined that the outside air temperature is high (for example, 25 degrees or more), a cold product is extracted from the products set in each flavor unit 3 stored in the setting data storage unit 15, and the corresponding lighting unit 4 is extracted. Is turned on (STEP 4).

STEP3で、外気温度が低温(例えば、10度未満)と判断した時は、設定データ記憶手段15に記憶されている各フレーバ部3に設定されている商品の中からホット商品を抽出し該当の照明手段4を点灯させる(STEP5)。STEP3で、外気温度が中温(例えば、10度以上25度未満)と判断した時は、フレーバ部3の全商品の照明手段4を点灯させる(STEP6)。STEP4、STEP5、STEP6のいずれかで照明手段4を点灯した後、STEP7へ進む。STEP7で金銭が投入されたかどうか判定し、金銭が投入されない場合は、人体検知手段10で人がいなくなるか、金銭を投入する(STEP7)まで、照明手段4の点灯状態は保持され、人がいなくなると、フレーバ部3の照明手段にて、全フレーバ部の照明を消灯する(STEP2)。   When it is determined in STEP 3 that the outside air temperature is low (for example, less than 10 degrees), hot products are extracted from the products set in each flavor unit 3 stored in the setting data storage unit 15 The illumination means 4 is turned on (STEP 5). When it is determined in STEP 3 that the outside air temperature is medium temperature (for example, 10 degrees or more and less than 25 degrees), the illumination means 4 of all the products in the flavor section 3 are turned on (STEP 6). After the illumination means 4 is turned on in any one of STEP4, STEP5, and STEP6, the process proceeds to STEP7. It is determined whether or not money is inserted in STEP7. If no money is inserted, the lighting state of the lighting means 4 is maintained until there is no person in the human body detecting means 10 or money is inserted (STEP7), and there is no person. Then, the illumination of the flavor unit 3 turns off the illumination of all the flavor units (STEP 2).

STEP7で金銭が投入されると、商品販売モードへ移行し、フレーバ部3の販売可能商品の照明手段4と商品選択手段5に含まれている販売可能ランプ〔図示せず〕を点灯させる(STEP8)。次に、STEP9へ進み、販売可能商品を選択したか判定し、販売可能ランプの点灯している商品選択手段5が押されると、選択商品を販売し(STEP10)、商品販売後、フレーバ部3の照明手段3を全て消灯し(STEP11)、待機状態に戻る。   When money is inserted in STEP 7, the mode shifts to the merchandise sales mode, and a saleable lamp (not shown) included in the illuminating means 4 and the merchandise selection means 5 of the flavor section 3 is turned on (STEP 8 ). Next, proceeding to STEP 9, it is determined whether or not a product that can be sold is selected, and when the product selection means 5 whose saleable lamp is lit is pressed, the selected product is sold (STEP 10). All the illumination means 3 are turned off (STEP 11), and the apparatus returns to the standby state.

図6において、照明可変制御手段18は、制御部16cに接続され、照明手段4の明るさを、制御部16cを通じて、可変制御するものである。   In FIG. 6, the illumination variable control means 18 is connected to the control unit 16c, and variably controls the brightness of the illumination means 4 through the control unit 16c.

以上のように構成された自動販売機の制御装置について、以下、図7を用いて、その動作を説明する。   The operation of the control device of the vending machine configured as described above will be described below with reference to FIG.

まず、人体検知手段10により、自動販売機本体1の販売対応面2の前方を検知領域とした範囲内に人がいるかどうか判断する(STEP1)。検知領域内に人がいないと判断した時は、待機状態のままで、フレーバ部3の照明手段4に対して、照明可変制御手段18を通じて、全フレーバ部3の照明の照度を下げる(STEP21)。人体検知手段10の検知領域内に人がいると判断した時はSTEP3へ進み、外気温度検知手段12にて、自動販売機周辺温度が何度か判定する。   First, it is determined by the human body detection means 10 whether or not there is a person within a range where the front of the sales support surface 2 of the vending machine body 1 is a detection area (STEP 1). When it is determined that there is no person in the detection area, the illumination intensity of all the flavor portions 3 is lowered through the variable illumination control means 18 with respect to the illumination means 4 of the flavor portion 3 in the standby state (STEP 21). . When it is determined that there is a person in the detection area of the human body detection means 10, the process proceeds to STEP 3 and the outside air temperature detection means 12 determines the temperature around the vending machine several times.

外気温度が高温(例えば、25度以上)と判断した時は、設定データ記憶手段15に記憶されている各フレーバ部3に設定されている商品の中からコールド商品を抽出し、照明可変制御手段18を通じて、該当の照明手段4の照度を上げ、他のフレーバ部より明るくする(STEP22)。STEP3で、外気温度が低温(例えば、10度未満)と判断した時は、設定データ記憶手段15に記憶されている各フレーバ部3に設定されている商品の中からホット商品を抽出し、照明可変制御手段18を通じて、該当の照明手段4の照度を上げ、他のフレーバ部より明るくする(STEP23)。   When it is determined that the outside air temperature is high (for example, 25 degrees or more), a cold product is extracted from the products set in each flavor unit 3 stored in the setting data storage unit 15, and the variable illumination control unit 18, the illuminance of the corresponding illumination means 4 is increased to make it brighter than the other flavor portions (STEP 22). When it is determined in STEP 3 that the outside air temperature is low (for example, less than 10 degrees), a hot product is extracted from the products set in each flavor unit 3 stored in the setting data storage unit 15, and illumination is performed. The illuminance of the corresponding illumination means 4 is increased through the variable control means 18 to make it brighter than the other flavor portions (STEP 23).

STEP3で、外気温度が中温(例えば、10度以上25度未満)と判断した時は、照明可変制御手段18を通じて、フレーバ部3の全商品の照明手段4の照度を上げる(STEP24)。STEP22、STEP23、STEP24のいずれかで照明手段4の照度を上げ、明るくした後、STEP7へ進む。STEP7で金銭が投入されたかどうか判定し、金銭が投入されない場合は、人体検知手段10で人がいなくなるか、金銭を投入する(STEP7)まで、照明手段4の点灯状態は保持され、人がいなくなると、照明可変制御手段18を通じて、全フレーバ部3の照明手段4の照度を下げる(STEP21)。   When it is determined in STEP 3 that the outside air temperature is medium temperature (for example, 10 degrees or more and less than 25 degrees), the illumination intensity of the illumination means 4 of all products in the flavor section 3 is increased through the illumination variable control means 18 (STEP 24). After the illuminance of the illumination means 4 is increased and brightened at any one of STEP 22, STEP 23, and STEP 24, the process proceeds to STEP 7. It is determined whether or not money is inserted in STEP7. If no money is inserted, the lighting state of the lighting means 4 is maintained until there is no person in the human body detecting means 10 or money is inserted (STEP7), and there is no person. And the illumination intensity of the illumination means 4 of all the flavor parts 3 is reduced through the illumination variable control means 18 (STEP 21).

STEP7で金銭が投入されると、商品販売モードへ移行し、フレーバ部3の販売可能商品の照明手段4と商品選択手段5に含まれている販売可能ランプ〔図示せず〕を点灯させる(STEP25)。この時、販売不可商品の照明手段4と販売可能ランプは消灯させ、STEP9へ進む。STEP9以降は実施の形態1と同じ動作であり、省略する。   When money is inserted in STEP 7, the product sales mode is entered, and a saleable lamp [not shown] included in the illumination means 4 and the product selection means 5 of the saleable product in the flavor section 3 is turned on (STEP25). ). At this time, the illumination means 4 and the sellable lamp for unsaleable products are turned off, and the process proceeds to STEP9. Steps 9 and after are the same as those in the first embodiment, and are omitted.

以上のように本実施の形態の自動販売機の制御装置によれば、照明手段4の明るさを可変制御できる照明可変制御手段18を設け、人体検知手段10が人体を検知している時としていない時でフレーバ部3の照明の明るさを変えることにより、人体を検知していない時にフレーバ部3の照明の明るさを暗くすれば、消費電力量を抑えることができる。また、人体を検知した時は、おすすめ商品とそうでない商品のフレーバ部3の照明の明暗のメリハリをつけることで、おすすめ商品を利用客に、よりアピールできる。   As described above, according to the control device of the vending machine according to the present embodiment, the illumination variable control means 18 that can variably control the brightness of the illumination means 4 is provided, and the human body detection means 10 detects the human body. By changing the brightness of the illumination of the flavor unit 3 when it is not, if the brightness of the illumination of the flavor unit 3 is reduced when no human body is detected, the power consumption can be suppressed. Further, when a human body is detected, the recommended product can be more appealed to the user by adding the brightness of the light of the flavor part 3 of the recommended product and the product that is not the recommended product.

尚、照明可変制御手段18は、照明手段4の電圧を可変にするとか、電流値を可変にするとか、照明手段の点灯/消灯のデューティ比を変えて、照明手段4の明るさを変えても良い。   The illumination variable control means 18 changes the brightness of the illumination means 4 by changing the voltage of the illumination means 4, changing the current value, or changing the duty ratio of turning on / off the illumination means. Also good.
