ABSTRACT:
A dispensing and control system, adaptable to coin operated vending machines, for selective operation of one of the dispensers acting as a means for releasing and dropping a selected merchandise to a delivery location using a mechanical or electrical control. Three dispenser mechanisms, suitable for different merchandise groups, are operable by a low power operating stroke suitable for a fully mechanical machine where the operating power comes from the manual actuation of operating knobs which are visually and mechanically linked to individual dispensers. Same dispensers are operable by an electrical power source using a novel selection system which includes a coupling and resetting control for coupling a selected dispenser actuator to a common power driven actuating member. The electrical control system is utilizing a series connected simple selection switch unit and a compact drive mechanism where the power of a single motor in a machine can be coupled to any dispenser unit which includes a small electrical actuator and switching means to control the selective coupling and resetting action. The control system is adaptable to vending machines or selection mechanisms requiring a selectable coupling of a power stroke to one of the selected actuators. The basic electrical control system is adaptable to various modifications including a direct solenoid actuation of some light acting dispensers. A two pivot escapement principle is applied as a bases for a delivery door and for one of the dispensers.
