  • the locking mechanism has a frame 43 which is mounted in horizontal translation in the housing 3 being held vertically, said frame and the cassette 2 being equipped with complementary means which are arranged for, in a first position of the frame 43 , allow the arrangement of the cassette 2 in the housing 3 with the dispensing zone 7 in the window 8 and, in a second position of said frame, lock the position of the cassette 2 in the housing 3.
  • the mounting of the cassette 2 can be achieved by moving it vertically in the housing 3 by arranging the distribution zone 7 in the access window 8, the subsequent displacement of the frame 43 in its second position to lock the position of the cassette 2 without moving it so as not to affect the disposition of said operating zone in said window.
  • the housing 1 shown comprises a bottom 44 which is articulated in rotation by means of pins 45 on one side of the peripheral wall 5 of the body of the casing 1, in particular on the same side as that of the hinge of the cover 9, between an open position of access to the housing 3 and a closed position in which said bottom forms a bottom wall of said housing.
  • the housing 3 and thus the cassette 2 are isolated from the outside to reconcile protection and aesthetics.
  • the bottom 44 has a bottom wall 44a of geometry similar to that of the upper wall 4 of the body of the housing 1, said bottom wall having two side edges, one of said edges being hinged to the body and the other being equipped with a tab 46 for locking said bottom in the closed position.
  • the locking mechanism has a device for moving the frame 43 which comprises complementary means equipping said frame and the bottom 44, said complementary means being arranged so that the closing of the bottom 44 induces the displacement from frame 43 from his first to his second position.
  • the arrangement of the bottom 44 in the open position allows the mounting of the cassette 2 in the housing 3, the locking of the mounted cassette 2 being achieved by simply closing the bottom 44.
  • the displacement device of the frame 43 may also comprise complementary means which are arranged so that the opening of the bottom 44 induces the displacement of the frame 43 from its second to its first position.
  • the unlocking of the cassette 2 for replacement is achieved by simply opening the bottom 44.
