【Example】

 An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, a display sample 11 is provided on the upper portion of the front door 10 of the cup type vending machine. The display sample 11 is a display sample body 12 having a shape imitating a cup, a colored film 13 which is attached to the side surface of the display sample body 12 and is semitransparently colored to show a product material, a cup pattern, and the like, and a beverage liquid. A sheet-like liquid level display member 14 that imitates the appearance of the surface part, which three-dimensionally represents ice etc. during cold beverages and the upper surface of liquid during hot beverages. It is configured.

The display sample body 12, the liquid level display member 14, and the front cover 25 of the front door 10 are each made of a translucent material, and the display sample 11 is attached to the panel member 15.

At the right and left portions of the lower portion of the inner side surface of the display sample body 12, there are vertically provided ridges 16 having a groove 17 as a sandwiching portion. Then, the lower side portions of the liquid level display member 14 are inserted into the groove portions 17 of the ridges 16 so that the liquid level display member 14 is sandwiched in the standing sample body 12 in an upright posture.

The rear surface of the display sample body 12 is inclined downward so as to be along the inclined surface 15 a of the panel member 15. As shown in FIG. 3, a frame-shaped protruding portion 12b protruding rearward in a frame shape is provided on the back surface 12a of the display sample main body 12 so that the inside of the frame-shaped protruding portion 12b is opened and the frame is Locking claw portions 12c are provided on the left and right of the protruding portion 12b. The locking claws 12c are bent in a hook shape from the rear side to the left and right, and the locking claws 12c are locked to the panel member 15 through the first openings 18 formed in the panel member 15. Has been done. The lower parts of the left and right locking claws 12c are extended with the same projection height, and the lower part of the frame-shaped projection 12b is in contact with the wall surface of the first opening 18. It should be noted that the first opening 18 of the panel member 15 is formed with insertion grooves 18 a on both sides of the upper portion thereof for inserting the left and right engaging claws 12 c.

Further, below the display sample 11 on the front door 10, a cold / hot display plate 19 for distinguishing between cold beverages and hot beverages is provided, and a product selection button 20 is provided below the cold / warm display plate 19. Is provided. A fluorescent lamp 21 is arranged behind the cold / warm display plate 19 and the product selection button 20, and a light box 23 is formed by the panel member 15 and the rear panel 22. Here, the second opening 24 is also formed below the fluorescent lamp 21 in the light box 23. In addition, the sample display device having the above structure is provided in a plurality of upper and lower stages (not shown).

In the above structure, the liquid level display member 14 can be attached to the display sample main body 12 only by inserting the sheet-shaped liquid level display member 14 into the groove portion 17 of the display sample main body 12. 14 is sandwiched by the ridges 16 of the display sample body 12 in an upright posture and stably supported.

Further, the display sample main body 12 is attached to the panel member 15 by inserting the left and right locking claw portions 12c of the display sample main body 12 into the insertion grooves 18a of the panel member 15, and then the left and right locking claw portions 12c. The display sample main body 12 is moved down along the rear surface side of the inclined surface 15a of the panel member 15. Then, the lower portion of the frame-shaped protruding portion 12b is brought into contact with the wall surface of the first opening portion 18 so that the locking claw portion 12c is locked to the panel member 15. As a result, the display sample body 12 can be stably attached to the panel member 15, and the attaching work can be easily performed.

Here, the light ray L emitted from the upper side of the fluorescent lamp 23 passes through the first opening portion 18 of the panel member 15 and the opening portion 12d of the display sample body 12 and the display sample body 12 and the liquid surface. The display member 14 is irradiated, and the display sample body 12 and the liquid level display member 14 are illuminated from the inside through transmission, and the pattern of the colored film 13 and the like are also illuminated well.

Further, the light ray L emitted from the lower side of the fluorescent lamp 23 is emitted to the cold temperature display plate 19 and the commodity selection button 20, and these are also transmitted and illuminated from the inside. Further, the light ray L emitted from the lower side of the fluorescent lamp 23 passes through the second opening 24 of the panel member 15 and is emitted to the liquid level display member 14 of the display sample 11 in the lower stage, whereby the liquid level display member. 14 is illuminated not only from the inside but also from the outside, and looks three-dimensional.

Although the case where the entire display sample main body 12 is formed of the translucent member is shown in the above embodiment, only the side surface portion of the display sample main body 12 may be formed of the translucent member. Good. Further, in the above embodiment, the ridge 16 is provided on the display sample body 12 and the groove 17 is formed in the ridge 16, but the groove may be simply formed on the display sample body 12. Further, the groove may be provided on the bottom surface of the display sample main body 12 or may be provided only on the bottom surface, as long as the liquid level display member can be sandwiched in the standing posture.

[0018]

[Effect of device]

 As described above, according to the present invention, the sheet-shaped liquid level display member that imitates the liquid level portion of the beverage is clamped in the standing posture in the main body of the sample by the clamping unit, so that the liquid level display member is stabilized. It can be attached to the display sample body in a posture, and the work of attaching the liquid level indicator can be done easily, thus improving work efficiency.
