Abstract

An automatic selling machine is equipped with a cooling system whose evaporator and evaporator fan are dispensed in the goods compartment on an insulating intermediate bottom of the machine housing, and whose condenser, condenser fan, and compressor are accommodated below the intermediate bottom. The cooling system is an assembly to be exchanged as a unit. For this purpose, the intermediate bottom is provided with an opening having peripheral shoulders on which an insulating supporting plate closing the opening rests. The evaporator is mounted above the plate, while the condenser, the compressor, and the condenser fan are mounted at the underside of the plate.
