ABSTRACT:
A gravity feed can dispenser for use in a commercial cooler is provided with integral means permitting two or more dispensers to be stacked in interlocked relationship, and further integral means permitting two dispensers to be connected side by side. The racks in most coolers are formed of parallel wires extending from front to rear; and in order that a dispenser may be stably supported on such a rack there must be transversely extending feet that rest upon several rack wires. In the present structure there is a fixed foot at the front which is vertically small enough that on an upper dispenser of a stack it does not interfere with removal of a can from the dispenser beneath it; and there is a hinged panel toward the rear which selectively occupies a non-interference position if the dispenser is an upper one, or a supporting position if the dispenser rests directly upon the rack.
