A pneumatic product vending and delivery system (10) is provided which preferably uses an existing product vending machine (24) as a storage and loading device for use in a pneumatic vending and delivery system along with an interface unit (30) in place of the vending machine door. A product dispensing terminal (20, 20a, 20b) is provided that is connected by the delivery tube (26) of a pneumatic conveyor (11) from the storage and loading device, which has a loading mechanism (50) configured to load a product (32) dispensed by the dispensing mechanism into the delivery tube. The pneumatic conveyor includes a back pressure source (220) operable to apply reverse pressure to a product in the delivery tube to gently slow a product approaching the product dispensing terminal through the tube.

La présente invention concerne un système (10) pneumatique permettant de délivrer et de distribuer des produits, qui utilise de préférence un distributeur (24) de produits existant comme dispositif de stockage et de chargement, de façon à l'utiliser dans un système distributeur pneumatique avec une unité interface (30) à la place de la porte du distributeur. Un terminal distributeur de produits (20, 20a, 20b) est connecté par le tube d'apport (26) d'un transporteur pneumatique (11) en provenance du dispositif de stockage et de chargement, lequel possède un mécanisme de chargement (50) agencé pour charger un produit (32) distribué par le mécanisme distributeur dans le tube d'apport.
