Claims (3)

  1. Mécanisme d'extraction pour distributeurs automatiques qui vendent des produits emballés ou contenus dans des contenants (3) cylindriques ou prismatiques empilés en une position horizontale disposés en quinconce et formant deux colonnes verticales qui sont contenues par deux parois parallèles (1, 2) qui sont séparées par une distance supérieure à celle du diamètre des contenants (3) mais inférieure à deux fois ledit diamètre, ces machines incluant un mécanisme d'extraction qui inclut également un dispositif de retenue (4) se composant d'au moins une plaque ayant un contour approximativement semi-circulaire, élément sur lequel reste le contenant le plus bas de l'une ou l'autre colonne, ledit élément étant monté dé telle sorte qu'il peut tourner autour d'un arbre (5) et qui est placé à une distance du bord inférieur (7, 9) des parois (1, 2) qui contiennent les deux colonnes de contenant (3) de telle sorte que le segment arrondi (6) du contour semi-circulaire du dispositif de retenue (4), conjointement avec le bord inférieur (7, 9) de la paroi opposée, offre un espace qui est plus près du diamètre des contenants (3) tandis que le segment droit (8) conjointement avec le bord inférieur (7, 9) de la paroi opposée offre un espace d'échappement légèrement plus grand que le diamètre desdits contenants (3) et l'axe (5) du dispositif de retenue (4) est parallèle aux contenants (3) et l'axe (5) coïncide exactement avec le plan d'intersection des contenants (3) des deux colonnes montées en profondeur ; caractérisé en ce que le mécanisme d'extraction est arrangé de manière telle qu'un premier contenant (3') reste sur le segment arrondi (6) du dispositif de retenue (4), bloquant ainsi sa sortie ; ledit premier contenant (3') retient à son tour un second contenant suivant creux (3") de telle sorte qu'aucun contenant ne peut sortir ; comme le dispositif de retenue (4) tourne dans une seule direction, le segment droit (8) du dispositif, de retenue (4) reste opposé au bord inférieur (7) de la paroi ; et la distance entre ledit segment droit (8) et le bord inférieur (7) est supérieure au diamètre des contenants et, ainsi, le premier contenant (3') est libre de tourner sous l'effet de la pesanteur ; et, en même temps, le second contenant (3") reste sur le segment arrondi (6) du dispositif de retenue (4) de telle sorte qu'il est ainsi bloqué ; comme le dispositif de retenue (4) continue de tourner dans la seule direction, il atteint une position telle que la distance entre le segment droit (8) du dispositif de retenue (4) et le bord inférieur (9) de la paroi (2) est supérieure au diamètre du second contenant (3"), permettant ainsi de le sortir librement ; et alors que, dans une telle position, un troisième contenant suivant (3''') reste sur le segment arrondi (6) du dispositif de retenue (4) ; et caractérisé également en ce que le mécanisme est arrangé de manière telle qu'avec chaque rotation de 180° du dispositif de retenue (4), un contenant est extrait d'une colonne différente.
  2. Mécanisme selon la revendication 1, caractérisé en ce que le dispositif de retenue (4) se compose d'au moins une ou plusieurs plaques ayant un .contour approximativement semi-circulaire montée(s) sur un seul arbre tournant de façon congruente avec le centre desdites plaques.
  3. Mécanisme selon la revendication 1, caractérisé en ce que le dispositif de retenue (4) se compose d'un ou plusieurs corps alignés ayant une forme approximativement semi-cylindrique monté(s) sur un seul arbre tournant de façon congruente avec l'axe desdits corps.
