ABSTRACT:
A vending apparatus for packaged articles includes a cabinet having a plurality of windows each having a delivery compartment aligned with a multi-package storage compartment. Motor driven feeder means disposed adjacent each storage compartment carries a variable number of divider elements to contain, advance and sequentially discharge single articles from the storage compartment to the delivery compartment. A plurality of switches sense and regulate the opening and closing of any one of the doors, the activation of the associated feeder means and the presence or absence of articles in the storage compartment while a shiftable gate assembly activated by operation of each door prevents access to articles within the storage compartment. By a modification the forwardmost article may be retained for display either in the front of the storage compartment or within the delivery compartment.
