US Patent:

45777802, Mar 25, 1986

Filed:

Dec 20, 1982

Appl. No.:

6/451035

Inventors:

Charlie R. Holland - St. Louis MO
Michael J. DelPercio - Fenton MO

Assignee:

Coin Acceptors, Inc. - St. Louis MO

International Classification:

G07F 1100

US Classification:

221125

Abstract:

An article-dispensing assembly including a door movably mounted on a plate for opening and closing an opening provided in the plate, the door including a shelf extending inwardly of the opening and providing a bin for holding an article to be dispensed. A control mechanism is movable to a first position to allow transfer of an article from a feed mechanism to the bin, and movable to a second position to block transfer of an article from the feed unit to the bin. An operating unit interconnects the control unit and door to allow loading of the bin when the door is in its closed position and to preclude loading of the bin when the door is moved from the closed position. A slide bar is slidably mounted and extends transversely of the bin. An interlock unit is movably mounted at one side of the opening to a first position that blocks sliding movement of the slide bar, and to a second position allowing sliding movement of the slide bar to an extended position. A coin-actuating unit connected to the interlock unit moves the interlock unit from its first position to its second position.

Abstract:

An electrical baseboard heater having multiple elongated electrical heating units aligned parallel to each other may be field wired at either of its ends. A preassembled heating assembly, when secured onto the base of the baseboard heater cabinet, forms a wiring raceway for return wiring from the nonadjacent terminals of the heating units and for secondary power supply wiring to the other end of the cabinet.

International Classification:

B65H 300

US Classification:

221194

Abstract:

An article-dispensing assembly including a door movably mounted on a plate for selectively opening and closing an opening provided in the plate, the door including a shelf extending inwardly of the opening and providing a bin for holding an article to be dispensed. A control mechanism is movable to a first position to allow transfer of an article from a feed mechanism to the bin, and movable to a second position to block transfer of an article from the feed unit to the bin. An operating unit selectively interconnects the control unit and door to allow loading of the bin when the door is in its closed position and to preclude loading of the bin when the door is moved from the closed position.

International Classification:

B65G 5900

US Classification:

221257

Abstract:

This dispensing machine rack assembly is formed from a pair of complementary, individually molded rack portions interconnected in face-to-face relation to define a plurality of generally vertical container-receiving compartments. Each rack portion includes a plurality of vertically spaced ramps extending beyond the connection face of the racks and disposed in staggered, overlapping relation to the ramps of the other rack portion to provide a serpentine path for the containers. A container entry opening is provided at the upper end of the rack assembly and a container dispensing opening is provided at the lower end of the rack assembly. Each lower end opening is provided with a door having a container-receiving bin and a control means associated with the door to control movement of a container from the lower ramp into the bin. A cradle is provided in each compartment associated with the lower ramp assembly, the cradle rear end selectively engaging a follower container when the cradle front end is loaded with a leading container.
