This device is closest in technical essence and the number of common features to the claimed utility model, which is why it is accepted as a prototype.

The disadvantage of the closest technical solution is the relatively high complexity and relatively narrow functionality.

The required technical result is to simplify the device and expand the functionality.

The required technical result is achieved in that in a device containing a housing with at least one storage of goods located in it, made in the form of two side walls mounted parallel to each other, and equipped with a stopper fixed in its lower part fixedly on the drive shaft driven by an electric drive, moreover, the goods are made in cylindrical packaging and placed in storages of goods in two rows in a checkerboard pattern, and the stopper is made in the form of a cylinder with a lateral longitudinal cutout providing rotation of the drive shaft alternately pushing goods into the receiving tray, and, equipped with a drive shaft turning angle sensor of the drive shaft connected to the electric drive, with a drive control performed by the controller.

In addition, the required technical result is achieved by the fact that the storage of goods is equipped with sensors for the delivery of goods.

In addition, the required technical result is achieved by the fact that the storage of goods is equipped with sensors for the rapid completion of the goods, which are located on its walls and are made with the possibility of movement in height.

In addition, the required technical result is achieved by the fact that, with the number of product storages more than one, cylinders with a lateral longitudinal cut of the respective storages are mounted on a single drive shaft with a shift relative to each other by an angle of rotation, which alternately ejects the goods into the receiving tray from the product storages.

Figure 1 - Device for storage and delivery of goods, for the case of using one storage of goods.

Figure 2 - Device for storage and delivery of goods, for the case of using three storage facilities.

The device for storage and delivery of goods contains a housing with at least one storage of goods located in it, made in the form of two side walls 1, installed parallel to each other, between which the goods 2 are placed in a cylindrical package in two rows in a checkerboard pattern.

In addition, each of the storages of the goods can be equipped with sensors 3 quick end of the goods and sensors 4 control the delivery of goods. The position of the sensors 3 soon end of the goods can be adjusted in height.

Each of the product storages is equipped with a stopper made in the form of a cylinder 5 with a lateral longitudinal cutout, which is fixed in its lower part fixedly on the drive shaft 6, driven by an electric drive (not shown in the drawing). A cylinder 5 with a lateral longitudinal cut-out provides, when the drive shaft 6 is rotated, alternately pushing the goods into the receiving tray 7.

The shaft 6 is equipped with a rotation angle sensor of the drive shaft (not shown in the drawing) associated with the drive, for example, an electric drive made with an electric drive control controller (not shown).

Figure 2 presents the design, which consists of several, in particular, three storages installed in series and so that the cylinders 5 with lateral longitudinal cuts are fixedly mounted on a common drive shaft 6 with a certain angular displacement relative to each other, providing alternately pushing the goods into the receiving Tray 7 from the vaults. The angular displacement between the cylinders 5 - may be minimal, at which the product is not pushed out. With a sufficiently accurate selection (depending on the size of the goods) of the dimensions of the cylinder 5 and the cutout in it, as well as the position of the cylinder 5 relative to the side walls 1, the angular displacement between the cylinders 5 can be small, because the goods can pass between the cylinder 5 and the side wall 1 of the store in a very narrow range of rotation angles. As an example: the cutout in the cylinder is 110 °, and the relative angular displacement between adjacent cylinders is 30 °. This allows you to install on a single drive shaft a large number of cylinders, in particular up to five.

The first storehouse is equipped with a cylinder 5 with a lateral longitudinal cutout of the first storehouse, which provides the pushing out of the goods 8 of the first storehouse, staggered between the side walls 9 of the first storehouse.

The second storehouse is equipped with a cylinder 10 with a lateral longitudinal cutout of the second storehouse, which provides the pushing out of the goods 11 of the second storehouse, staggered between the side walls 12 of the second storehouse.

The third storehouse is equipped with a cylinder 13 with a lateral longitudinal cutout of the third storehouse, which provides the pushing out of the goods 14 of the third storehouse, staggered between the side walls 15 of the third storehouse.

A device for storing and dispensing goods works as follows.

In the initial state, the angle of rotation of the cylinder 5 with a lateral longitudinal cutout relative to the walls of the storage 1 is selected so that the distance between the cylinder 5 and the side wall 1 is not enough to eject the goods 2 into the receiving tray 7.

The product 2, made in a cylindrical package, is loaded into the product storage, made in the form of two side walls 1 mounted parallel to each other, in a checkerboard pattern so that the bottom package abuts against the surface of the cylinder 5 with a side longitudinal cutout.

When you turn on the power using the sensor of the angle of rotation determines the initial position of the angle of rotation of the drive shaft bis using sensors 4 control the delivery of goods determines the availability of goods. This information is transmitted to the drive control controller to determine the direction and angle of rotation of the drive shaft to issue the first unit of goods.

When applying to the controller for controlling the electric drive a signal to issue a package of goods (consider the case of the location of the goods, as shown in the drawing of FIG. 1), the drive shaft 6 with a cylinder 5 with a lateral longitudinal cut turns clockwise until the lower right package of goods 2 the gap formed between the longitudinal cut in the cylinder 5 and the right side wall 1 of the storage will not fall out and will not fall into the receiving tray 7. In this case, the left lower packaging of the product under the influence of gravity will lower and rest against the cylindrical part a cylinder 5 with a lateral longitudinal slot, all items of shift down to half the diameter of the package, the sensor 4 transmit the motor drive control controller issuing information package to the right of the goods and give information about the readiness for the next package item left. If the sensor 4 does not transmit information about the issue of goods and / or about the readiness of the next product, a conclusion is made about the end of the product.

To issue the next product, the drive shaft 6 and with it the cylinder 5 with a lateral longitudinal cut are rotated counterclockwise.

Sensors 3 are arranged in such a way as to operate when a certain quantity of goods is left in the warehouse. To set the balance of the goods at which the sensors 3 are triggered, the position of the sensors 3 can be adjusted in height.

When the number of storages is more than one, for example three, as shown in figure 2, the device operates as follows.

Before loading, the drive shaft 6 is rotated so that in all the storages the distance between the walls 9, 12, 15 of the storages and the cylinders 5, 10, 13 with longitudinal cuts was not enough to eject the goods into the receiving tray. All stores are loaded with the same product.

When applying to the controller control the electric drive signal to issue the goods (consider the case of the location of the goods, as shown in the drawing of figure 2), the drive shaft 6 and cylinders 5, 10, 13 with lateral longitudinal cutouts mounted on it, rotates clockwise. In this case, the cylinder 5 with a lateral longitudinal cut of the first storage is rotated by an angle sufficient to push the product 8 out of the first storage formed by the side walls 9, and the cylinders 10, 13 with the lateral longitudinal cutouts of the second and third storage are rotated so that the distance between the walls 12, 15 storages and cylinders 10, 13 with lateral longitudinal cuts were not enough to discharge the goods from the second and third storages into the receiving tray 7. Moreover, the goods 8 from the right row of the first storage are thrown into the receiving tray 7, and the goods in the first storehouse are lowered until the left row of the goods of the cylinder 10 is touched.

When a signal is sent to the electric drive control controller for issuing the next product packaging, the drive shaft 6 and all cylinders with a lateral longitudinal cut are turned clockwise by an angle sufficient to push the goods from the second storage formed by the side walls 12 of the product 11, and the cylinders 5, 13 s the lateral longitudinal cutouts of the first and third storages are rotated so that the distance between the walls 9, 15 of the storages and the cylinders 5, 13 with the lateral longitudinal cuts was not enough to eject the goods from the first and t etego storage in a receiving tray 7. In this case, 11 items of the right row of the second storage is discharged into the receiving tray 7, items in the second store drops to the left row touch goods cylinder 10.

After the goods will be dispensed from the last store, when the signal is issued, the drive shaft 6 rotates in the opposite direction, the goods are issued from the stores in the reverse order.

Thus, due to the improvement of the known device, its simplification and reliability are achieved, since, in particular, the use of brake elements and pushers is excluded and the possibility of using a single drive shaft for all stoppers (cylinders with longitudinal cuts) with a common electric drive, an electric drive control controller and an angle sensor is ensured rotation, which not only allows you to place a larger amount of goods in the device’s case, but also reduce the cost of devices for dispensing goods, according to avneniyu dispensing devices using independent actuators.
