Abstract

La présente invention porte sur un distributeur automatique, sur une pile de gobelets pour un distributeur automatique de boissons et sur un distributeur automatique de boissons contenant une ou plusieurs des piles de gobelets. Les gobelets peuvent être formés à partir de papier et peuvent comprendre une extrémité inférieure, un rebord, un fond et une paroi latérale qui comprend une première partie s'étendant depuis le fond jusqu'au rebord et une seconde partie s'étendant depuis le fond jusqu'à l'extrémité inférieure. Les gobelets peuvent comprendre des ouvertures dans la seconde partie de la paroi latérale, qui peuvent être des encoches s'étendant depuis l'extrémité inférieure du gobelet ou des trous traversants ayant une forme géométrique fermée. La seconde partie de la paroi latérale peut être orientée de manière oblique par rapport à la première partie de la paroi latérale. Ainsi, les première et seconde parties de la paroi latérale peuvent être non coplanaires.
