ABSTRACT:
A device for issuing single copies of flat flexible articles, such as newspapers or magazines. A stripper member comprising a rotatable conveyor has engagement elements which engage an article to be issued near one of the edges of the article. The conveyor is rotated while traversing the face of the article, carrying the edge with it so as to wrap the article upon the conveyor's periphery until the article is stripped (peeled) from the stack. The article is then released and discharged through an exit orifice. The device may be coin-controlled, so as to issue an article only after the necessary coins have been provided, either by permitting the stripper member to be moved with an engaged article only when proper coins have been inserted, or by permitting the engagement elements to engage the article only when a coin has been inserted. The device may be provided with a holder to display one of the articles and issue it as the last article, after the other inventory has been issued.
