[origin: EP0581076A2] A vending machine contains, in a housing (1), a plurality of drawers arranged one above the other, each with a plurality of horizontal shafts arranged next to one another. A stack of identical articles (4) is arranged in each shaft. A potential customer can see the particular first article (4) of each shaft through a viewing window (3) and can ascertain which article he would like to buy. After the corresponding shaft has been selected, the chosen article is fed by a dispensing device to an extraction orifice (6), through which the customer can extract the article. <IMAGE>
