초록 ▼

A mechanical lift for delivery bins and receptacles in vending and analogous machines includes a feature that partial opening of a delivery door allows at least partial access to the delivery bin or receptacle but that further opening of the door would lift the bin or receptacle floor. The assembly can be compact, relatively noncomplex and economical. It can come in basically a preassembled kit that can be retrofitted or original manufacture equipment. It can include additional features such as anti-cheat functions and dispense detect sensors. An additional feature can be a unique dispensing floor geometry.

1. A delivery receptacle assembly such as for use in a vending, inventory control, or dispensing machine comprising: a. a delivery box for placement in a delivery area inside a vending, inventory control or dispensing machine, the delivery box having a height, width, and depth defining an interior space for receiving dispensed items from above into the interior space, and including: i. a raiseable floor having a mass across substantially the interior space and movable between a lower home and a fully raised position, andii. an access opening at least substantially across the width;b. an access door having a mass mounted at the delivery box for providing access to the interior space of the delivery box through the access opening movable between a closed position across the access opening and an open position;c. a mechanical linkage operatively connected between the raiseable floor and the access door, the linkage providing: i. a first range of movement of the access door between the closed position to a partially open position for viewing of or access to at least a portion of the interior space through the access opening without raising of the floor so that lifting force required is primarily the mass of the access door;ii. a second range of movement of the access door to: (1) raise the raiseable floor member mechanically from the lower home position towards the fully raised position over the second range of movement upon further opening of the access door from the partially open position towards the fully open position;(2) create a mechanical dwell that at least temporarily resists the mass of the access door and raiseable floor upon closing of the access door while in the second range of movement. 2. The delivery receptacle assembly of claim 1 wherein the access door: a. has a width and height, and the width spans at least a substantial amount of the interior space;b. is positioned above, forward, and substantially vertical relative the raiseable floor in the closed position;c. swings inwardly and upwardly around a substantially horizontal axis when moved from the closed position. 3. The delivery receptacle assembly of claim 1 wherein the access door includes a seal at or near its perimeter adapted to seal the access door against a cabinet opening of a vending, inventory control, or dispensing machine cabinet when in the closed position. 4. The delivery receptacle assembly of claim 1 in combination with a vending, inventory control, or dispensing machine having a cabinet and cabinet opening, wherein the cabinet opening is 15 inches or more above a supporting surface of the vending inventory control, or dispensing machine and coincident with the access door of the delivery receptacle assembly, and the raiseable floor moves to a position 15 inches from the machine's supporting surface in its raised position resulting in enhanced/improved accessibility. 5. The delivery receptacle assembly of claim 1 wherein the linkage comprises: a. at least one arm extending between the access door and the raiseable floor, the at least one arm actuating movement of the raiseable floor in response to movement of the access door over the second range of movement. 6. The delivery receptacle assembly of claim 1 wherein the raiseable floor of the dispensing receptacle body has a concave top surface along at least a substantial part of its length. 7. The delivery receptacle assembly of claim 1 further comprising an anti-cheat panel which moves from a retracted to a blocking position when the access door is moved past the partially open position. 8. The delivery receptacle assembly of claim 3 further comprising a retention member associated with the access door of the cabinet to hold the access door in a sealed position unless moved by manual force, the retention member comprising a magnetic component. 9. The delivery receptacle assembly of claim 8 wherein the raiseable floor is raised from the home position to the fully raised position upon opening the access door from the partially opened position to a fully opened position. 10. The delivery receptacle assembly of claim 5 wherein the linkage comprises two arms, one connected to the raiseable floor and the other to the access door. 11. The vending, inventory control, or dispensing machine of claim 4 wherein the floor movement comprises: a. leaving the floor at or near its said lower position when the customer access door is moved anywhere to or from the closed and a partially open position; andb. correlated raising and lowering the floor when the customer access door is moved anywhere to or from the partially open position to the open position. 12. The vending, inventory control, or dispensing machine of claim 4 comprising; a. plural vertical drop dispensers at different vertical heights across a width of the interior of the cabinet;b. a customer interface including an item selection and a bill/coin/token acceptor; andc. a programmable machine controller operatively connected to: i. the dispensers; andii. the customer interface.
