ABSTRACT:
A simple molded plastic sales kiosk design is described having a unique closure means. The kiosk has a fixed substantially spherical shell member mounted on a cylindrical base. This fixed shell member is truncated by a vertical chordal plane in the region of the central axis, extending between the top of the shell and a horizontal serving counter mounted in an intermediate region of the shell. This serving counter is annular and extends between the vertical truncated edges of the shell. For entry into the kiosk, a gap is provided in the serving counter adjacent one of the vertical truncated edges. An outer shell including a spherical segment portion merging into a chordal skirt portion is mounted for rotation on and surrounding the fixed shell. This outer shell is truncated by a vertical chordal plane located forward of its central axis and is arranged to rotate relative to the fixed shell such that in the normal open position the serving counter is exposed and the entry gap is covered by the outer shell, in the normal closed position the serving counter and entry gap are entirely covered by the outer shell and in the entry position, the entry gap is uncovered.
