ABSTRACT:
A dual station coin-operated vending machine includes a housing, a globe on the housing with a central vertical partition dividing a reservoir of the globe into separate compartments, a pair of coin-operated dispensing mechanisms each disposed in the housing below one globe compartment, a pair of discharge chutes disposed in the housing below and each associated with one dispensing mechanism, and a dual hopper disposed in the housing below the globe and above the dispensing mechanisms. The dual hopper has a downwardly concave shaped top surface leading to spaced apart openings therein, each overlying and aligned with a dispensing wheel of one dispensing mechanism, and a raised ridge formed on the top surface and aligned below the globe partition so as to isolate the dual hopper openings from one another to receive items only from separate globe compartments.
