Definitions

  • the present invention refers to a machine dispensing productos to consumers through an opening on its upper side.
  • the existing dispensing machines are designed so that the product goes out via an opening located at the upper side of same. Since the slot for introducing coins is arranged in such a position which is comfortable to a consumer, that is to say, so that he/she can introduce coins without the need to lift his/her arm too much, it happens that, then, when the product is dispensed through the lower side of the machine, the consumer is compelled to stoop to pick up the object dispensed, which means to adopt an uncomfortable enough position.
  • the dispensing machine has been designed with the aim of selling directly products, with delivery of same at the upper part of the machine, with the characteristic that the produt goes out of the machine through the upper part of same, at the most comfortable height, the body of a person being at a normal position remaining upright. This means a great comfort to a consumer with regard to pick up said products, without being compelled to stoop, as it happens at present with the conventional dispensing machines.
  • the product is placed in a channel having adequate size to receive the products to be dispensed.
  • Each machine can have as many channels as desired in order to dispense different products.
  • a lifting platform on which the products rest, with a capacity for as many units as admitted by the height of channel or channels.
  • the platform moves vertically upward by means of a lifting system which can be hydraulic, mechanical, electrical, pneumatic or by a combination thereof. Said lifting system rises the platform every time a product is requested, at a height according to the position of said product (for example, for a product having 25 mm thickness, the platform lifting in that moment will be 25 mm.
  • a lifting system which can be hydraulic, mechanical, electrical, pneumatic or by a combination thereof. Said lifting system rises the platform every time a product is requested, at a height according to the position of said product (for example, for a product having 25 mm thickness, the platform lifting in that moment will be 25 mm.
  • Figure 1 shows a perspective view of the machine which is the object of the present invention.
  • the products are placed piled in a closed channel (1) containing the products so that they cannot go laterally out of the channel.
  • the pile of products rest on a lifting platform (5), which, by means of a conventional gear, lifts every time coins are introduced, at a height which is equal to that of the product to be dispensed.
  • the channel (1) is open at its upper side (2) so that the products (6), when arriving at the oulet of the machine, which is controlled by a conventional gear controlling the height, are dispensed out of the machine by means of other conventional device (4) pushing the product (6) out of the channel.
  • the device (4) pushing the product (6) can be omitted if the supporting platform (5) is placed in a tilted position, since then the products will fall by gravity.
