MACHINE FORADISPENSIYNGY ARTICLES.
Application filed September 11, 1926. Serial No. 134,763.
This invention relates to an improved machine for dispensing articles and is designed particularly for such articles as are sold by number, the machine being slow enough to permit a counting of the articles and is designed to prevent the necessity oi. handling them.
The invention is also designed to provide a display means so that the articles in bulk form an attraction and the machine is therefore particularly adapted for sale and dispensing of rolls, buns, and similar edible articles in which the prime necessity is to prevent the customers from handling the goods but to enable them to count out and deliver the required number.
The invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawings in which Figure 1 is a side view and Figure 2 is a front view of a machine embodying invention. Figure 3 is a section on line. 33 in Figure 2. Figure 4 is a section on line 4l.4 in Figure Figure 5 is a top v1ew of the machine and Figure 6 is a perspective view of a plunger for selecting the articles.
The device comprises a casing which is usually designed as a store fixture having a lower part 10 which functions as a stand or support and anupper part 11 which is preterablv made up to provide a display fixture and I show one comprising the standards 12 supportingthe glass sides 13. This upper or display portion has a top which has an openinglt through which the articles can be deposited into the structure, a lid 15 being normally used to close the top to keep the 'dust' out. The bottom part of the upper portion has inclined panels 16 to direct the articles to be dispensed toward a selected point toward the bottom, usually the centre. At that point, I provide a guide 17 in which is fitted a plunger 18 which is reciprocated up. and down by a suitable mechanism, when. it is down the plungerforming a part of the.
bottom and when it is up the plunger 'sup porting a single article which is automatically swept from the top through a delivery opening.
In the form shown the mechanism for operating the plunger comprises a cross head of the plunger 19 on the plunger, said cross head having a slot 20 in which the pin 21 of the fly wheel 22 projects. The fly wheel 22 is mounted on a shaft 23 which can be driven by means of a pulley 24 and the belt 25 and the pulley 26. The pulley 26 can be turned by a handle 27. In some cases this manual means can be disbanded. The wheel 22 can be turned by means of the belt 28 which transmits motion to the shaft 22 from the motor 29. Suitable wiring of course, is involved to enable the machine to be started and stopped and I show as typifying such conveniences a switch 30.
In order to sweep an article from the plunger 'when the plunger is raised, I arrange a paddle 31 which I illustrate as at 32 and which normally rests in the position shown in Figures 1 and 3, either held in normal position by a spring or by the influence of a weight 33. This paddle is tripped and the plunger rises to its raised position and I show a rod 34 which engages the part 33 or any portion of the paddle above its pivot so that the paddle is swung to the position shown at 35 in Figure 3. Opposite the upper position are the top of the plunger and the delivery opening which is usually in the form of a chute 36 at the end of which is a receiver such as a, paper bag so which is held to receive the rolls or other articles.
In using the apparatus the rolls are deposited in the top and are on display through the glass sides and when they are 86 to be dispensed, the operating means such as the handle 27 is rotated which causes the plunger to reciprocate, the top of the plunger being in proportion so that its holds but one article.
The article is carried upward through themass and as it arrives opposite the delivery chute, the paddle 31 is tripped by the rod 34 and the article is delivered through the chute 36. The operation of the apparatus is slow enough to permit easy counting and at the same time make it more sanitary and also quicker to count and place in a bag or the likethe required number.
It'will be evident that various modificato the holder above the plunger and adapted to be swept across the top of the plunger, the paddle having a pivoted connection and an inclined face above said connection, andv a rod on the plunger to engage said face to move the paddle.
In testimony whereof I alfix my signature.
SAMUEL SAMBOR.
