An article dispensing device is incorporated into an automatic vending machine capable of storing articles having a cylindrical or substantially cylindrical shape resembling bottles or cans in stacks, and of dispensing the articles in response to a dispensation command. The article dispensing device has a fixed plate serving as a wall defining an article dispensing passage, and holding a dispensing mechanism for dispensing the articles one at a time, and a movable unit disposed opposite to the fixed plate. The movable unit has a frame attached to the body of the automatic vending machine, a shiftable plate supported on the side walls of the frame by pivot pins fitted in slots formed respectively in the side walls and provided with a positioning projection projecting from at least one end thereof so as to engage with steps of a stepped positioning edge formed in the side wall selectively according to the diameter of the article passing through the dispensing passage. A biasing means for biasing the shiftable plate is provided so that a lower end portion of the shiftable plate protrudes into the dispensing passage.

L'invention porte sur un éjecteur d'articles pour distributeur automatique d'articles cylindriques tels que des bouteilles et des boites stockées en piles et éjectées par une commande d'éjection. L'éjecteur comporte une paroi fixe portant le mécanisme d'éjection et constituant l'une des surface du couloir d'éjection et éjectant l'article, et une paroi mobile faisant face à la paroi fixe. La paroi mobile comporte: un cadre fixé à un côté du bâti du distributeur; un plateau mobile pivotant autour d'un axe mobile engagé dans un trou support percé dans une paroi latérale du cadre; et une partie de contact/positionnement étagée, formée sur la paroi latérale du cadre avec laquelle une pièce de positionnement dépassant d'une extrémité au moins du plateau mobile vient sélectivement en contact en fonction du diamètre de l'article traversant le couloir d'éjection. Le plateau mobile est muni de moyens de rappel faisant saillir sa partie inférieure en direction du couloir de distribution.
