Abstract

Abstract The dispenser falls within the art field of high speed stock-handling equipment controlled and operated by all-electronic systems and suitable for packaged commodities, and features a high-density modular magazining frame comprising a longitudinal rail (4) with equispaced sockets (4a) that support vertical walls (5) matched to the width of the package; these same walls afford equispaced grooves (6) designed to accept further upright walls (7) set at right angles to the first and matched to the depth of the package in such a way as to create a vertical channel in which the packaged commodities can be stacked. The packages are ejected by a system of push rods (9) mounted slidably in a table beneath the vertical channels, which are actuated selectively by solenoids (10) and returned as one by a single cam mechanism.
