Abstract

A controlled delivery of product system for delivery of product in a vending machine obtained by a product acquisition system, said controlled delivery of product system comprising: an elevator cup for receipt of product from a product selection system of the vending machine, a delivery window covered by a delivery door for dispensing selected product, and a transport system for moving the elevator cup from the product selection system to the delivery door, said elevator cup being pivotally mounted for release of product through the delivery window upon opening of the delivery door, wherein the elevator cup engages the delivery door for opening the delivery door by vertical movement of the elevator cup.

Claims (14)

1. A product separation and selection tray system for a vending machine, said product separation and selection tray system comprising:

a tray for holding two columns of product to be mounted on a shelf in the vending machine, a central wall for separating the two columns of product on opposite sides of the wall, a rotator pivotally mounted on the tray for controlling release of a product from the tray, a gate located in the central wall and pivotally mounted on the tray for restraining a successive product located behind the product released by the rotator, and a lever projecting from the tray for engagement by a product acquisition device, said lever controlling simultaneous movement of the rotator and the gate for dispersing product from the tray to the product acquisition device.
2. The product separation and selection tray system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the rotator includes two flat side surfaces interconnected by a curved side surface, the curved surface is movable into and out of a path of product moving along the tray.
3. The product separation and selection tray system as claimed in claim 1, wherein two sidewalls mounted on the tray are located on opposite sides of the central wall.
4. The product separation and selection tray system as claimed in claim 3, wherein the two sidewalls are laterally adjustable towards and away from the central wall so as to accommodate different sized products.
5. The product separation and selection tray system as claimed in claim 1, wherein a push bar slides on the tray to move product along the tray towards the lever.
6. The product separation and selection tray system as claimed in claim 5, wherein a spring biases the push bar.
7. The product separation and selection tray system as claimed in claim 6, wherein there are two push bars.
8. The product separation and selection tray system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the lever is movable with respect to the tray.
9. The product separation and selection tray system as claimed in claim 8, wherein the rotator and the gate are connected to the lever.
10. The product separation and selection tray system as claimed in claim 9, wherein the rotator and the gate are connected to the lever so that the rotator and the gate move in opposite directions when the lever is engaged by the product acquisition device.
11. The product separation and selection tray system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the rotator is located on the tray between an end of the lever and the gate.
12. The product separation and selection tray system as claimed in claim 1, wherein the gate includes two ends, one end of the gate is pivotally mounted on the tray and the other end of the gate is movable by the lever.
13. The product separation and selection tray system as claimed in claim 2, wherein the rotator is pivotally mounted on the tray at an intersection between the two flat surfaces with one of the flat surfaces moving in line with the central wall when the rotator is pivoted by movement of the lever.
14. The product separation and selection tray system as claimed in claim 1, further comprising a support plate locating the lever underneath the tray and underneath the rotator and the gate.
