Getränkeautomat für verschlossene Behälter und Verfahren zum Ausgeben

摘要

The invention concerns an automatic beverage dispenser for closed containers, such as bottles or cans, which in a housing has at least one shaft for stacking the containers as well as a withdrawal device arranged beneath the shaft, whereby, in the lower area of the shaft, a separator is located which has stops for advancing only one beverage container at a time. The withdrawal device is comprised of plane surfaces (5) which slope downwards from both side walls (11, 12) of the housing (1) to the center of the housing and extend over the entire area of the housing (1) from front to back, and a receiving trough (6) which is open upwards and extends over the entire area of the housing (1) from front to back and is dimensioned to receive the beverage containers (3) and is provided with a withdrawal drawer (7), which can be slid out from the housing (1) and is provided with a slide plate (8) at its back end. The withdrawal drawer (7) and the slide plate (8) are connected to each other, so that the movement of one causes a simultaneous and equidirectional movement of the other. The receiving trough (6) preferably has a device for determining the presence of a beverage container (3) in the withdrawal drawer (7).
