Or, it reverses and rotates 90 degrees back and forth, but since each control section operates in the same manner with the control switch ON or OFF, which control section is in the sales standby position and does not rotate 90 degrees. It was not possible to determine whether the product was delivered at the correct delivery position or not. For example, if a power outage occurs at a position rotated 90 degrees, when power is turned on, the position rotated 90 degrees will be used as the sales standby position and the product will rotate back and forth 90 degrees, resulting in defective product delivery. .

１０２ 、 ｓｔ。Next, the operation of the above configuration will be explained with reference to the flowcharts of FIGS. 8 and 9. When the power is turned on, the microcomputer (hereinafter abbreviated as MPU) (18) checks the input state of the detection signals from the detection switches (13) and (14). At this time, each detection switch (13) (1
4) is in the OFF state, the drive shaft (4) is at a predetermined product sales standby position, so the MPU (18) waits for input of a product selection signal (Sill). In addition, the detection switch (
13) is in the ON state and the detection switch (14) is in the OFF state, the MPU (18) drives the electric motor (5) in forward rotation until the detection switch (13) becomes in the OFF state. 5105, 5IQ8

103>, the MPU (18) has the detection switch (14) set to O.
The electric motor (5) is driven in reverse until it reaches the FF state, and the O
When the FF state is detected, the electric motor (5) is stopped (5
104, 5107, 5110), that is, when each detection switch (13) (14) inputs a detection signal other than the OFF/OFF state that detects that the drive shaft (4) is in the product sales standby position, each detection Switch (13 bar 14)
Depending on the state, the MPU (8) drives the electric motor (5) in forward or reverse rotation to position the drive shaft (4) at a predetermined product sales standby position.

6) is operated and a product selection signal is input to the MPU (18), the MPU (18) drives the electric motor (5) in normal rotation. Therefore, the drive shaft (4) rotates in the normal direction, and with this rotation, the locking member (11) on the product path (6) side is pressed and rotated into the product path (6) by the locking control cam (9). Then, the product (A2) next to the lowest product (A1) is locked. When the drive shaft (4) rotates 90 degrees, the product path (6) that was supported by the delivery control cam (8)
The support of the side delivery member (10) is released, and the delivery member (10) is released.

ことができるものである。(G) Effects of the Invention Since the present invention is configured as described above, the position of the drive shaft can be reliably determined by detecting the control cam using a plurality of detection switches. Therefore, even if the product delivery device stops mid-operation due to a power outage or the like, it can be automatically returned from the stopped position to the product sales standby position by turning on the power again.
