ABSTRACT:
A restricted access vending device with included microwave oven. The device includes a cabinet having a refrigerated compartment containing a plurality of product selections, a compressor associated with the refrigerated compartment, and means for vending a particular product selection to a user. The microwave oven is disposed inside the cabinet and shares a common power supply access with the compressor. An access door is disposed in the cabinet between the user and the microwave for limiting access thereto. The door opens upon the vending of a product selection for a preset period of time so that the user may insert the vended product into the oven. Upon activation by the user of a cooking switch, the access door closes and the microwave operates to heat the vended product.
