ABSTRACT:
A circuit reciprocator or alternator arrangement for alternately operating two vend motor-driven stack mechanisms loaded with the identical product brand from a single common customer-operable selector switch. An on-on type switch having SPDT contacts for alternately completing a circuit to the two vend motors is operated by an actuating linkage. The linkage is arranged such that switching or toggling of the on-on switch occurs prior to a particular known point or range of points of the vend cycle where the probability of a mechanism jam is higher. Therefore, if one of the vend motors jams, the circuit has already been completed to the other vend motor which can then be subsequently actuated. Further, the on-on switch is geld in a position where no furhter toggling or switching occurs, and the circuit will continue to be completed to the other, unjammed motor. The linkage is further arranged such that no damage occurs when one motor is stalled and the other continues to operate.
