To provide an article carrying-out device for a vending machine capable of preventing play of a link member in left and right directions or an oblique direction during the operation and smoothly selling articles by a stable operation.
This article carrying-out device 1 is provided with a lower pedal 5 for holding a first article from the bottom, an upper pedal 4 for holding a second article and a link member 19 reciprocatively moved by a solenoid 17 to perform an opening/closing control of each pedal 4 and 5. The device 1 is capable of carrying out articles having different diameters without changing the width of an article passage 10 and controls the article carrying-out by alternately projecting each pedal 4 and 5 to the article passage 10 side. Since a pair of guide projection parts 15 for slidably holding the link member 19 are provided on a bearing base 11 of the lower pedal 5, the link member 19 can be prevented from playing in the left and right directions or the oblique direction during the operation.
