Abstract:
The product delivery device including a gravity feed track conveying a container from a first loading end to a second dispensing end, said track including first and second rails supported in parallel relations to define a substantially constant width interstice therebetween, the improvement comprising: a track engaging member forming part of said container and extending therefrom, said track engaging member slidably engaging each of said first and second rails, said track engaging member being in the form of a sphere of diameter greater than the interstice formed by said first and second rails, said sphere being interconnected to a generally planar vertically oriented member at an upper end thereof, said planar member having a lower end interconnected to said container; said planar member being of given thickness, wherein the interstice between said first and second rails closely corresponds to said given thickness to substantially prevent rotation of said container after engagement with said track.
