Abstract

The invention is a vending machine (10) comprising - a product storage space (12) adapted for storing products, - rails (22) arranged in the product storage space (12), - at least one tray (20) configured for receiving products, and - a central control unit (40) adapted for controlling the vending machine (10). The vending machine (10) is characterized in that the tray (20) is replaceably arranged at one tray position, wherein the tray positions are defined by the rails (22), and the tray (20) comprises - a first connector portion (23) receiving power supply from the vending machine (10) and enabling a bidirectional communications link with the vending machine (10), and - a controller unit (25) connected to the first connector portion (23) and storing data related to the products stored on the tray (20) and providing bidirectional communications with the central control unit (40) of the vending machine (10) in respect of these data, the vending machine (10) further comprising - for each tray position defined by the rails (22), a respective second connector portion (24) providing a releasable connection to the first connector portion (23) of the tray (20) and providing the power supply and the bidirectional communications link in an interconnected state when the tray (20) is inserted into the vending machine (10), wherein the second connector portions (24) are arranged in the product storage space (12) aligned with the tray positions defined therein.
