For example, a device having a configuration as disclosed in Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 60-172264 is known.

Such conventional noodle processing and cooking equipment mixes grain flour and water to form noodle dough, forms the noodle dough into noodle strings, and delivers them in single serving units. After the noodle strings are boiled, washed, etc., they are put into a container and supplied.

[Problem to be solved by the invention] However, the above-mentioned conventional noodle processing and cooking apparatus has the following problems:
Accepting menu orders from customers.

Currently, all operations such as starting the noodle making, boiling, and cleaning equipment, as well as delivering and serving containers containing processed and cooked noodles, are all carried out manually. An automatic sales system has not yet been developed.

For this reason, even if noodle making, boiling processing, cleaning, etc. were automated, a considerable number of hands would still be required, and sales time would not only be limited to store opening hours, but especially in recent years. There was a problem in that it was not possible to meet demand late at night or early in the morning.

[Purpose of the Invention] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a system that can fully automatically process everything from receiving an order for noodles to making noodles, boiling them, washing them, and delivering them without requiring any manual labor on the part of the store. The purpose of the present invention is to provide an automatic processing and selling device for processed noodles.

[Means for Solving the Problems] In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention includes a reception means for issuing an order card in which a predetermined medium such as money or a card is inserted by a customer and an operation for selecting noodles for sale is provided. The noodle dough is formed into noodle strings and sent out in units of servings, and the noodle strings are subjected to processing such as boiling and washing to form boiled noodles. An automatic processing and cooking means for processing and cooking, a container delivery means for delivering a container for storing the cooked boiled noodles processed and cooked by the automatic processing and cooking means at a predetermined set position, and this container delivery means a cooked boiled noodle storage means for storing a container containing cooked boiled noodles that has been delivered and plated; and a container containing cooked boiled noodles stored in the cooked boiled noodle storage means in response to a customer's request for receipt. A container containing cooked boiled noodles delivered from the cooked boiled noodle storage means is placed on a drain pan provided at an outlet corresponding to the delivery port of the transfer means, A container in which a first container placement part in which a supply nozzle of a supply device is located in a corresponding position and a second container placement part in which a juice container is placed and in which a supply nozzle of a cold juice supply device is located in a corresponding position are adjacent to each other. The receiving plates are removably assembled to each other, and holders for guiding and holding each container are integrally provided on the first and second container mounting portions of the container receiving plate.

A liquid receiving hole is provided in the first and second container mounting portions corresponding to each of the supply nozzles.

[Function] That is, in the present invention, when a customer inserts a medium such as money or a card into the receiving means and selects noodles for sale, an order card is issued and the noodle making means, boiling means, and boiling noodles are activated. The automatic processing and cooking device comprising the cleaning means is operated to process and cook the desired boiled noodles, and the cooked boiled noodles are arranged in a container supplied from the container delivery means and stored in the cooked boiled noodle storage means. At the same time, this container containing cooked boiled noodles is delivered from the delivery means in response to the customer's request for receipt by inserting an order card. It becomes possible to do everything automatically, including delivery.

Further, a container containing cooked boiled noodles to be delivered from the cooked boiled noodle storage means is placed on a drain pan provided at an outlet corresponding to the delivery opening of the delivery means, and a supply nozzle of the hot soup supply device is connected to the drain pan. Container receiving plates, which are adjacent to each other, are removable from each other, and the corresponding first container placement part and the second container placement part on which the juice container is placed and the supply nozzle of the cold juice supply device are placed in the corresponding position.

At the same time, the roller-equipped lower end 10 of the support rod 101 moves on the guide plate 111 formed on the side of the first boiled noodle feeding device 14 in the device by the tact movement by the drive device 106.
By configuring 1A to roll, the basket 50 can be conveyed to the first boiled noodle feeding device 14 side in an elevated state.

That is, the boiling device 13 is the first or second! !
Noodle strings for one serving of "udon" or "soba" made into i-noodles by the two-noodle machine 11.12 are sent out via the conveyor device 11A or 12A, and are lowered into the boiling water W-H in the boiling water tank 100. When the noodles are placed in the storage basket 50 (udon storage basket 50A or soba storage basket 50B) which is maintained in the soaked state, the drive device 106 is driven corresponding to the boiling time and at the same time the vibration is applied. Device 1
The storage basket 50 is vibrated by the operation of 07, and the noodle strings in the storage basket 50 are loosened and moved around intermittently to be boiled by the boiling water WH in the boiling water tank 100. It is something.

In this case, in order to make the boiling position A of ``udon'' and ``soba'' at the same position, the first noodle making machine 11 that makes ``udon'' which takes a long time to boil is far from the boiling position A. The second noodle making machine 12, which makes noodles with a short boiling time, is placed close to the boiling position A, and when it comes to the boiling position A, As shown in FIG.
The soba storage basket 50B is located at a position corresponding to the second noodle making machine 12 that makes "soba", and the udon storage basket 50A is located at the 16th position from the position corresponding to the first noodle making machine 11. The boiling point is ff1A, and the soba storage basket 50B is the second W! The ninth position from the position corresponding to the noodle machine 2 is defined as the boiling position A.

That is, the udon storage basket 50A reaches the boiling position itA by moving 15 times by the drive device 106, and the soba storage basket 50B
can reach the boiling position A by moving eight times in tact using the drive device 106.

In this state, when the basket 50 storing the noodle strings approaches the boiling position A, the first basket lifting device 108
is activated, the basket 50 is raised via the support rod 101, lifted out of the boiling water tank 100, and conveyed to the first boiled noodle feeding device 14 side.

By the way, boiling water is replenished into the boiling water tank 100 by a water heater 120, as shown in FIG.

It has a configuration corresponding to the basket 50 that moves intermittently around the inside of the basket 100.

That is, the hot water supply device 120 injects boiling water over a certain period of time to the noodle strings housed in the basket 50 having a limited size by controlling the operation of the first and second solenoid valves 122 and 123. By doing so, the noodle strings in the basket 50 are agitated as if swimming in the boiling water tank 100, increasing the boiling efficiency, and the boiling water in the boiling water tank 100 is absorbed by the noodle strings, or the noodle strings are Even when the noodle is not boiled, it is constantly replenished according to the amount of water that evaporates and decreases. However, for example, due to the elution of starch and salt contained in the noodle strings, the penetration power of the boiling water into the noodle strings is reduced. It is designed to have a purifying effect that prevents delays in boiling speed due to weakening.

Further, in the figure, 126 is a water discharge pipe connected to the bottom of the boiling water tank 100 via a third solenoid valve 127, and 128 is a first level detection switch that detects the upper limit level of boiled water in the boiling water tank 100. , 129 is a second level detection switch that similarly detects the lower limit level of boiling water in the boiling water tank 100.

Alternatively, when the boiled water in the boiling water tank 100 exceeds the upper limit level due to replenishment through evaporation or the like, this state is detected by the first level detection switch 128, and the first or second solenoid valve 122, The third electromagnetic valve 127 is opened for a certain period of time to drain the boiled water from the boiling water tank 100. At the same time as hot water is discharged through the hot water pipe 126, "udon crumbs" and "udon crumbs" accumulated at the inner bottom of the boiling water tank 100 are
Boiled water is purified by removing sediment such as buckwheat crumbs.

Further, the second level detection switch 129 detects the state when the boiled water in the boiling water tank 100 is below the lower limit level, and the second level detection switch 129 detects the state when the boiled water in the boiling water tank 100 is lower than the lower limit level,
By opening the valves 22 and 123, the boiling water tank 100 is controlled to be supplied with boiling water.

Note that while the boiled water in the boiling water tank 100 is being drained, the timing at which the third solenoid valve 127 is closed is set to
A first level detection switch 128 is used, which operates when the boiled water in the boiling water tank 100 exceeds the upper limit level.
A second level detection switch 129 may be used that operates when the boiled water in the boiling water drops below the lower limit level, and the water supply device 120 may replenish the amount of boiled water for a longer period than the decreasing amount. By doing so, it is possible to further enhance the purification effect of the boiled water in the boiling water tank 100.

A management notification device 43 for notifying abnormalities is connected to each of them, and control operations are performed based on a program stored in a ROM 44.

20 and 21 proceed to flowchart 1 showing the control operation by the CPU 40. FIG.

That is, when the sold-out signal for "udon" is input from the processing control device 42 in step S1, the sold-out indicators W4A and 4C are lit in step S2, and the ordering of "udon" is stopped in step S3. The management notification device 43 is operated using the steno knob S4 to notify the administrator of the abnormality, and the process proceeds to step S5.

In addition, if the sold-out signal for "udon" is not input in step S1, it is determined in step S5 whether or not the sold-out signal for "soba" is input from the processing control device 42, and if it is input, In step S6, the sold out indicator 4B,
4D is illuminated, and in step S7, the order for "soba" is stopped, and in step S8, the management notification device 43 is operated to notify the manager of the abnormality, and the process proceeds to step S9.

In this step S9, it is determined whether or not both "udon" and "soba" selling signals are being input, and if both selling signals are being input, the screen display 6 is operated in step S14. , "$ in stock" is displayed, and in step S15, the reception of coins, bills, cards, and other media into the coin processing bag 7 and the bill/card processing device 8 is stopped, and the process proceeds to step S27.

On the other hand, if it is determined in step S9 that both the "udon" and "soba" selling signals are not input, the process proceeds to step S1o, and a check is made to determine whether or not the "r in preparation" signal is input from the processing control device 142. If there is an input, the process proceeds to step S14, the screen display 6 is operated, and r'$ is input as described above.
"Busy" is displayed, and the operation in step S15 is performed, and if there is no input, the Stellar screen is displayed.
In step 11, check the input of weight defect data.

If weight defect data is input from the processing control device 42 in this step S1↓, the process proceeds to step S24, and if there is no input, the process proceeds to step S12.

It is checked whether coins or media such as banknotes or cards have been inserted into the coin processing device 7 and the bill/card processing device 8. If there is an insertion, it is determined in step 313 whether the amount can be sold. , if it is determined that it can be sold, proceed to step 3.
Proceed to step 16.

Also, if no medium is inserted in step S12.

Alternatively, if it is determined in step S13 that the amount is impossible to sell, the process proceeds to step S27.

If it is determined that it can be sold in step S13, step S1
6 to step 819, the customer selects the selection switch 4A~
It is determined whether 4D has been selected, and the order data for the selected noodles is stored in the order memory 41 in steps S20 to S23, and the process returns to step S1. Also,
At this time, if the customer does not perform a selection operation in steps S16 to S19, the process advances to step S27.

On the other hand, when the defective weight data is input in step S1l, it is determined in step S24 whether the defective data is "Ding Udon" or not.
If it is "soba", it is determined whether the data is "hot udon" or "cold udon" in step S25, and if it is "soba", it is determined in step S26 that the data is "warm udon". Determine whether the data is for ``Soba'' or ``Cold Soba.''

Then, if it is determined in step S25 that it is "cold udon",
In step S20, the order data for "cold udon" is stored in the order memory 41, and when it is determined that the order is "warm udon", the order data for "warm udon" is stored in the order memory 41 in step S21. Furthermore, if it is determined that "cold soba" is "cold soba" in step S2e, the order data of r cold soba J is stored in the order memory 41 in step S22, and if it is determined that it is "r hot soba", r hot soba is stored in the order memory 41 in step S23. ” is stored in the order data.

That is, when defective weight data is input from the processing control device 42, the noodles ordered based on the defective weight data are stored in the order memory 4.

In step S27, it is determined whether or not a machining command request signal is input from the machining control device 42.

If it has been entered, in step 528 the order memory 4 is
Determine whether or not the factory has order data.

If there is order data, the earliest order data among the order data stored in the order memory 4 is outputted to the processing control device 42 in step S29. When the sending signal is input from the processing control device 42 in step S30, in step S31, the order data output from the order memory 41 in step S29 is erased, and the process returns to step S1.

Further, if the processing command request signal is not input in step S27, if there is no order data in the order memory 41 in step S28, or if the sending signal is not input from the processing control device 42 in step S30, the process goes to step S1. return.

That is, on such a reception device, when a customer inserts a medium such as a predetermined coin or banknote or a card and selects noodles, the order data of the selected noodles is sequentially stored in the order memory 41. Memory and processing control device 4
Based on the request from 2, the order data stored in the order memory 4 is sequentially output to the processing control device a42, and the processing control device 42
When defective weight data is input from , the corresponding noodle order data is stored in the order memory 41 regardless of the selection operation.
It is designed to be memorized.

By the way, FIG. 22 and FIG. 23 are flowcharts 1- showing the screen display control operation of the screen display device 6 in the reception device 1. That is, in step S41, "
Until the "Ready Complete" signal is input, the "Preparing" signal is displayed as "Screen A" shown in FIG. 24 (A) in step S42.
is displayed.

r'1g in step S41! When the "preparation complete" signal is input, the state goes into a sales standby state (H customer ambush S), and in step S43, the "Screen B-1 display", for example, the store commercial shown in FIG. Fukiage-tei”, step S4
After the predetermined time has elapsed (time up) in step S45, the screen B-2 display, for example, as shown in FIG.
After the predetermined time has elapsed in step S46, the product information shown in ``Delicious udon and soba please'' is displayed, and in step S47, ``Screen B-3 display'', for example, as shown in Fig. 24 (
Switch to display the reception information shown in step d), such as "Please purchase a meal ticket to order udon or soba", and proceed to step 34.
Proceed to step 8.

Then, after a predetermined time has elapsed in step S48, it is determined in step S49 whether or not a medium such as a card, banknote, or coin has been inserted by the customer. If a medium has been inserted, the process proceeds to step S50, and the medium is If it is not injected.

Returning to step 343, the operations of steps 343 to S49 are repeated.

In step S51, it is determined whether or not the medium has been inserted within the time-up period in step S44. If the medium has been inserted, the process proceeds to step S50, and if the medium has not been inserted, the process returns to step 343.

In step S52, it is determined whether or not the medium has been inserted within the time-up period in step S46.

If the medium has been inserted, the process advances to step S50; if the medium has not been inserted, the process returns to step S45.

In step S53, it is determined whether or not the medium has been inserted within the time-up period in step 848. If the medium has been inserted, the process advances to step S50, and if the medium has not been inserted, the process returns to step S47.

In this way, when the medium is inserted, step S5
0, it is determined whether the remaining balance on the card or the banknotes or coins is at a sellable price. If it is less than the selling price, in step S54, the "Screen C display", for example, as shown in FIG. 24 (
``Welcome'' shown in e) is displayed to inform the customer that the media input by the customer is less than the selling price. At this time, if the missing medium is added within the time-up period in step S55, the process returns to step S50 and it is determined whether the price is such that it can be sold further. This step S55 controls the display time of "screen C display" in step S54.

If the inserted medium is equal to or higher than the selling price in step S50, in step 856, a one-screen display is displayed, for example, "Welcome, please press the button of your choice" as shown in FIG. Prompt the customer to operate the selection switch.

Then, the customer operates the selection switch in step S5.
If the product selection signal is input as determined in step 7, the process proceeds to step 358.

In step S5B, it is determined whether the product selected by the customer can be sold, that is, whether or not a sales interruption signal has been input from the processing control device 42. If not, step S59 is performed. ``Screen E display'', for example, as shown in FIG. After outputting the order acceptance signal and outputting the meal ticket issuing signal to the card issuing device 9 in step S61, the process advances to step SG2.

Step 62 is to judge whether there is an additional sale of the product by the customer. If there is no additional sale, it is judged in step S63 whether or not there is a balance of the coins or banknotes inserted in step S50, and the remaining amount is If there is any remaining money, the medium of the amount corresponding to the remaining amount is paid out in step S64, and the process returns to step 5431 again to display the same standby screen as described above. If there is no remaining money in step S63, the process returns directly to step S64. Return to S43.

Further, if there is an additional sale at step SG2, the process returns to step S5G and the same screen display as above is performed.

On the other hand, in step S55, the display time of "Screen C display" in step S54 is controlled, and if the selling price does not reach the level during the time-up period, the process advances to step S64.
After discharging the inserted medium, the process returns to step S43.

Further, in step S57, the operation time of the selection signal is controlled in step SG5, and if the selection signal is not input during the time amplifier time, the process advances to step S64, and after dispensing the inserted medium, the process returns to step S43. It has become.

Note that the time amplification time in steps S44, 46, 48, 55 and 65 is set to about 10 seconds.

Furthermore, when a selection switch is operated after inserting media with a price higher than the selling price, a predetermined number of the selected products have been ordered (
For example, when processing and cooking ``udon'' and ``soba'' (10 servings each), that is.

If the sales interruption signal has been input from the processing control device 42 in step S58, in step S67, the message "Screen F display 1, for example, 'Congested, please wait for a while'" as shown in FIG. The time-up time in step S67 is set to about 3 seconds. Also, in step S56 “
When the screen F display times out, the process returns to step S5.
6, the state before the selection operation is organized.

If it is determined that there is a container delivered and placed from the first stocker 504A side on the delivery table 501 correspondingly located below, the process directly advances to step S84.

This step S84 is performed by determining whether or not there is a flag in the storage area R3 of the memory 46. If there is a flag in the storage area R3, step S85 determines whether or not there is a container in the third stocker 504C. If it is determined that there is a container in the third stocker 504C, the second stocker 504 is placed on the delivery table 501 correspondingly located below the third stocker 5040 in step 886.
It is determined whether or not there is a container loaded and delivered from the B side, and if there is no container, the third stocker 504C is operated in step S87, and the delivery is carried out at the corresponding position below the third stocker 504C. The container is delivered and placed Mt on the table 501, and the process proceeds to step 888.

On the other hand, in step S84, it is determined that there is no flag in the storage area R3 of the memory 46, and in step S85, it is determined that there is no container in the third stocker 504C, and further, in step 88G, it is determined that there is no container in the third stocker 504B. If it is determined that there is a container delivered and placed on the delivery table 501 from the second stocker 504B, the process directly advances to step 388.

This step 388 is performed by determining whether or not there is a flag in the storage area R4 of the memory 4G. If there is a flag in the storage area R4, step S89 is performed to determine whether or not there is a container in the fourth stocker 504D. If it is determined that there is a container in the fourth stocker 504D, the third stocker 504C is placed on the delivery table 501 correspondingly located below the fourth stocker 504D in step S90.
Determine whether there is a container being sent out from the side or not.

If there is no container, the fourth stocker 504D is activated in step S91, and the fourth stocker 504D is
The container is sent out and placed on the delivery table 501 located below, and the process proceeds to step S92.

On the other hand, in step 588, it is determined that there is no flag in the storage area R4 of the memory 4G, and in step S89, it is determined that there is no container in the fourth stocker 504D, and further, in step S90, it is determined that there is no container in the fourth stocker 504C. If it is determined that there is a container placed on the delivery table 501 that has been placed on the delivery table 501 from the third stocker 504G side, the process directly advances to step S92.

This step S92 is performed by determining whether or not there is a flag in the storage area R5 of the memory 46. If there is a flag in the storage area R5, the process proceeds to step S93 to determine whether or not there is a container in the fifth stocker 504E. If it is determined that there is a container in the fifth stocker 504E, the fourth stocker 504D is placed on the delivery table 501 correspondingly located below the fifth stocker 504E in step S94.
It is determined whether or not there is a container delivered and placed from the side, and if there is no container, the fifth stocker 5 is moved in step S95.
