COMMODITY PATH WIDTH RESTRICTION DEVICE FOR AUTOMATIC VENDING MACHINE

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To prevent the can body of a thin diameter from being stored in a storage transportation path in a state where a posture is defective when the can body of the thin diameter is erroneously supplied in a state where the rocking range of an entrance restriction body is set for the can body of the thick diameter. SOLUTION: A supply path 24 reaching a storage transportation path 23 from an inclination guide path 22 is formed in an automatic vending machine. A supply restriction body 10 receiving a can body 4b from the inclination guide path 22 and sending it to the storage transportation path 24 through the supply path 24 is installed in a part facing the supply path 42 so that it freely rocks. The rocking range of the supply restriction body 10 is restricted so that the width of the supply path 24 can freely be switched to a maximum width W2 position which is maximum and a minimum width position which is minimum. A posture correction board 43 correcting the posture of the commodity 4b of the thin diameter to the correct one when the erroneously supplied commodity 4b of the thin diameter passes through the supply path 24 in a state where it is switched to the maximum width W2 position is installed in the supply restriction body 10.
