Abstract:
PURPOSE: To facilitate the reception of an article from a vending opening without decreasing the arrangement space of a storage frame and simplify a mechanism required to take out articles from individual storage frames by providing a taking-out head with an extension tray stored in its head frame.
CONSTITUTION: A conveying means, when receiving a vending command, sets the taking-out head on its head base at a specific taking-out position for an object storage frame. In this state, the extending and contracting tray 78 is extended toward the object storage frame, and then continuously contracted after its tip passes right below the bottom article in the object storage frame. Accompanying contraction of the extension tray 78, the pusher 88 which is at the tip of the tray 78 and raised at this time pushes the bottom article out of the object storage frame and the pushed-out article is received on the tray 78. Then, the taking-out head is conveyed by the conveying means to the vending opening and the article on the extension tray 78 is discharged by a discharging means toward the vending opening.
