ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for storage and radial discharge of selected like items, including, a rotary storage device for storing a plurality of the selected like items at individual radial positions. Rotation of the storage device provides for positioning of individual ones of the stored items for ejection of individual ones of the stored items outwardly. A plurality of retainers are coupled to the stored items. Each retainer includes a first position to retain a stored item and a second position to release a stored items for ejection. A retrieval mechanism triggers individual ones of the retainer means to release individual ones of the stored items. A catcher interupts the ejected items along a substantially horizontal path and directs the caught items along a substantially vertical path into a collector device. A controller is responsive to the location of individual ones of the stored items to control the retrieval mechanism to trigger the proper retainer to allow the desired item to be released and ejected.
