Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0531942A2] The invention relates to a vending system, in which there is arranged in a space (6) a compartment unit (1) having a predetermined number of compartments (2) which each have a door (4) lockable by means of a locking device. At least one terminal (50-1, 50-2, 50-3, 50-4) is arranged at a distance from the space (6) and is connected to a computing unit (3) by way of a line (52-1, 52-2, 52-3, 52-4). The terminal (50-1, 50-2, 50-3, 50-4) has an indicator device (53-1, 53-2, 53-3, 53-4). When an order is received, a trader enters at the terminal (50-1, 50-2, 50-3, 50-4) information for the immediate occupation of a compartment. The computing unit (3) indicates on the indicator device (53-1, 53-2, 53-3, 53-4) which compartment (2) has been reserved for the ordered products, or indicates that no compartment (2) is available for receiving the ordered products. <IMAGE>
