Abstract (en)
Article handling apparatus comprises an article transport system (2) mounted to a housing (1) having an article dispense outlet (33) towards which articles are fed by the transport system. An article reject position is associated, in use, with a reject store (34); a control system (15,22,36) is provided for actuating the transport system and a lid (35) of a store in the reject position, the reject position being adjacent to the transport system upstream of the dispense outlet such that when an article is to be rejected. The control system causes the lid (35) of a store in the reject position to open into the path of articles being transported towards the dispense outlet so that the transport system delivers the rejected article into the store.
