Abstract

In an article vending machine, a hose (220) for extracting the articles whereby a positioning mechanism (233, 243) is used to move the end (221) of the hose in a given plane. A drive mechanism (508) then moves the free end of the hose along a longitudinal axis. A user interface allows the user to control the positioning of the free end of the hose. The positioning mechanism may be X-Y, R-Theta, scissors telescoping linkage, etc.. Also disclosed is the use of double robots so that eg. each article storage volume within the vending machine comprises its own article extracting device and positioning mechanism.
