Abstract (en)
A storage cabinet, which is useful for storing columns of spools containing sewing thread of different colours and colour shades and of different lengths, provides a column-by-row matrix of dispensing mouths so that articles can be removed, one at a time, from a selected magazine. The articles in each magazine are advanced by a spring-loaded position transducer which provides position data signals representing the content of the magazine. The position data signals are supplied to a microprocessor-controlled display which is connected to a control panel for selecting three modes of operation and for entering keyboard data. In a first mode, a display is provided of any magazine, in a selected column, which has a minimum or less than a minimum content of articles. In a second mode, a serial number of an article is entered on the data keyboard and a display is provided of the contents of a corresponding magazine. In a third mode, a printout is provided which represents an inventory of the contents of each magazine.
