Abstract (en)
[origin: EP0577121A1] An automatic device for distributing audiovisual and digital media includes a magazine (M) adapted to contain the media (S), at least one handling unit (T) for loading and externally unloading the media through a slot (6), a device for reading an identification tag associated with each medium (S), a device for the selection of a medium on the part of a user, and a device (7) for the automatic payment of the preselected medium. The magazine (M) is formed by separate sections (M1, M2, M3) for corresponding media (S1, S2, S3) which have different formats and sizes. The handling unit (T) includes a carriage (8) which can move along a first vertical guide member (10, 11), a slider (15, 16) which can move along a second horizontal guide member (14) rigidly associated with the carriage and is provided with a clamp member (21) for handling the media. The clamp member includes movable jaws (20, 21, 22) and a device (28, 29) for automatically varying the mutual distance of the jaws (20, 21, 22) along a fourth guide member. <IMAGE>
