Abstract (en)

[origin: ES8207642A1] A mechanical vending machine with a coin analyzer and a control mechanism for the release of merchandise dispensing devices after the insertion of an appropriate amount in coins, has the control mechanism being coupled to a locking bar of the merchandise dispensing devices and has a slide lock for the locking bar. To make the control mechanism accessible and to disengage it, the coin analyzer and the control mechanism are disposed on a bracket mounted on horizontal tracks of the vending machine so as to be movable from a pushed-in position to a pulled-out position. The bracket has a hinge by means of which it can be pivoted in the pulled-out position about a vertical axis. Disposed on the bracket is a coupling device which couples the control mechanism to the locking bar and to the slide lock in the pushed-in position, and which disengages when moved into the pulled-out position. In order to make coin stores of a coin return mechanism, which are behind the coin analyzer, readily accessible, the coin stores are fastened to a bracket which can be pulled out along the track, parallel to the merchandise dispensing compartment.
