An automatic vending machine includes a chassis and a moving mechanism attached to the chassis. The chassis defines a channel configured for receiving products. The moving mechanism includes a moving member received in the channel, a driving assembly, and a mounting member attached to the driving assembly. The driving assembly is configured to rotate the moving member and includes a claw member. The claw member includes a plurality of clawers. The moving member moves the products when rotated by the driving assembly. The mounting member is moveable relative to the claw member between a first position to a second position. When the mounting member is located in the first position, and the moving member is located among the plurality of clawers. When the mounting member is located in a second position, the plurality of clawers are resiliently deformed by the mounting member to clamp the moving member.

A dispenser is adjustable to contain beverage container lids of various sizes. A housing has a front element with an opening. Pager assemblies are mounted in slots which extend radially outwardly from the opening. A stack of lids is inserted into the housing through the opening, and the pager assemblies allow a single lid to be extracted from the stack by the pivoting of a door containing two claws which engage the frontmost lid. To reconfigure the dispenser for a different lid size, a template is positioned frontwardly of the housing front element, and the pager assemblies are adjusted to abut the template, thereby configuring the pager assemblies in the proper position. The claws on the lid are then replaced with claws which are configured to the new lid shape.

The present invention provides an apparatus that dispenses a lowermost cup from a stack of nested cups. The cups are disposed within an opening formed through an annular housing, and a group of cam assemblies project inward from the housing to support and selectively dispense the cups. Alignment holes are formed through the housing and the cam assemblies to facilitate proper alignment of the cam assemblies relative to one another during assembly of the dispenser. The cam assemblies move inward and outward relative to the opening to accommodate cups of different under-rim diameters within a given range. In particular, the cam assemblies move in an arc and pivot relative to the housing and thereby remain satisfactorily aligned relative to the center of the opening over a wider range of under-rim cup diameters.

A machine for processing mail comprises a mechanical jogging device between an unstacking head (3) and a conveyor path (1) for conveying a stack (2) of postal items. The jogging device comprises inclined rollers (8) rotated so that a postal item of the stack, on arriving vertically over the rollers, is capable of dropping edge-on, under the action of gravity, onto the rollers and of being driven towards a jogging margin (7) while simultaneously being moved towards the unstacking head by the effect of the rollers rotating so that its free face comes substantially into contact against the unstacking head.

A device for transporting individual sheets to or from a magazine housing containing the sheets in a stack, particularly useful in x-ray installations, includes a threaded rotary screw member disposed within the magazine containing the stack of sheets for raising and lowering the sheet stack within the magazine and individually handling the uppermost sheet in the stack for transport to or from the magazine. A sheet transport is also provided comprising drive rollers disposed in a lateral plane overlying the sheet stack and running rollers connected to an upper end of the rotary screw member for movement in a lateral plane directly beneath the drive rollers, such that the running rollers may be disposed between the bottom circumferential portions of the drive rollers to form a sheet transport nip between the corresponding rollers. When an individual film sheet is to be conveyed to or from the magazine housing, the running rollers are positioned beneath the drive rollers pressing the transported sheet therebetween and the drive rollers are rotated to bring about transport of the sheet.

In a device for feeding envelope blanks from the bottom of a stack, the bottom blank is removed from the stack by engaging the front edge of the bottom blank with a blank engaging assembly which engages the front edge and guides it into engagement with a feed cylinder which thereafter transports the bottom blank to other transfer cylinders in the device. Uninterrupted timely engagement of each successive bottom blank in the stack by the engaging assembly is provided by adjustment of a supporting plate while the device is in operation. The plate is arranged to support the stack of blanks and is pivotally connected to the frame of the device. Eccentric adjustment members contacting the underside of the support plate rotate to raise and lower a portion of the plate relative to the disc elements of the blank engaging assembly and prevent movement of the stack of blanks in the forward direction or in the other extreme rearward movement or push back of the bottom sheet by the disc elements.
