Therefore, as shown in FIG. 34, the first link lever 461 elastically deforms to allow the proximal end 461a to approach the locking portion 461c, and the movement of the cam portion 443a due to the rotation of the output gear 443 is performed. It does not inhibit.
- the locking portion 461 is connected to the base end 461a at a position shifted obliquely upward to the left from the first link shaft 42e, so the left side It will be in contact with the edge 471 'while sliding upward. Since the recessed portion 471a is formed in the left side edge portion 471 ', the amount of deformation of the locking portion 461c at the time of elastic deformation of the first link lever 461 can be suppressed.
- FIG. 35 is a side view which shows typically the case where the other modification of a goods delivery apparatus is seen from the right side.
- the first product carry-out device 20a may include a lever member 80
- the second product carry-out device 20b may include a lever member 80 '.
- the lever member 80 is disposed swingably in such a manner as to be movable forward and backward with respect to the first product storage passage 13 a in a state of penetrating the lever opening 214 at the upper right end of the base 21.
- a pair of left and right lever locking pieces 215 that project rearward are formed at both side edges of the lever opening 214 on the back side of the base 21, and the lever member 80 is shown in FIG.
- FIG. 37 it is arranged so as to be pivotable about the axial center of a shaft 81 which is bridged by the lever locking piece 215.
- a lever spring 82 is interposed between the lever member 80 and the base 21 in such a manner as to wind the shaft 81.
- the lever member 80 is urged by the lever spring 82, and the tip end portion 85 is normally held. Is advanced to the first product storage passage 13a.
- the lever member 80 ' can be advanced and retracted relative to the second product storage passage 13b in a state of penetrating the lever opening 214' at the upper right end of the base 21 '. It is arranged swingably. More specifically, on the back side of the base 21 ', a pair of left and right lever locking pieces 215' protruding rearward are formed on both side edges of the lever opening 214 ', and the lever member 80' The lever locking piece 215 'is pivotably arranged around the axial center of a shaft 81'.
- a lever spring 82 ' is interposed between the lever member 80' and the base 21 'in a manner to wind the shaft 81'.
- the lever member 80 ' is biased by the lever spring 82', In the normal state, the leading end portion 85 'is in a position where it has advanced and moved into the second product storage passage 13b.
- the bases 21 and 21 ' move in such a manner that the leading end portion moves forward and backward with respect to the commodity storage passage 13 in the region above the upper pedals 29 and 29'.
- the lever members 80 and 80 'disposed on the side are urged by the lever springs 82 and 82', and the leading end portions 85 and 85 'move forward to the commodity storage passage 13, while passing the commodity storage passage
- it abuts against the biasing force of the lever spring 82, 82 ' it retreats from the product storage passage 13, so that it is possible to stabilize the posture of the product which has passed through the product storage passage 13.

Abstract
L'invention concerne un dispositif distributeur de produits (20a) qui comporte une pédale inférieure (29) et une pédale supérieure (28) qui se déplacent vers l'avant et vers l'arrière par rapport à un passage de conservation de produit (13) et une liaison de pédale (35) qui relie lesdites pédales, la liaison de pédale (35) étant déplacée vers le bas dans un état de veille afin d'éviter que des produits se déplacent vers le bas, et la liaison de pédale étant déplacée vers le haut lors de l'actionnement et le produit inférieur étant distribué vers le bas. Ledit dispositif distributeur de produits (20a) comporte un engrenage de sortie (443) et un levier de liaison (46). L'engrenage de sortie (443) est relié à un moteur (43) via une vis sans fin (441) et tourne sous l'action d'une force d'entraînement transmise dudit moteur (43) via ladite vis (441). Quand le levier de liaison (46) établit un contact coulissant avec une partie de came (443a) disposée sur l'engrenage de sortie (443), ledit levier de liaison (46) maintient la liaison de pédale (35) dans un état résultant du déplacement vers le haut de ladite liaison de pédale (35), et quand le contact coulissant entre le levier de liaison (46) et la partie de came (443a) se termine, le levier de liaison (46) permet le déplacement vers le bas de la liaison de pédale (35).
