Abstract:
1. A helical coil dispenser for vending machines, comprising: a frame; a plurality of helical coils mounted on the frame and each extending along a longitudinal extension axis thereof; each helical coil being coupled to a respective motor designed to determine a rotation of the helical coil about said longitudinal extension axis causing moving forward of goods supported by said helical coil; wherein the helical coil dispenser further comprises adjusting means interposed between each motor and the frame, said adjusting means comprising a plurality of supports, each supporting one motor, and a guide disposed on the frame; said supports being mounted on said guide and being designed to translate along about throughout said guide in a first direction perpendicular to the longitudinal extension axes and parallel to a main development of a rear side of the frame; said supports and said guide being designed to allow each support, during its translation, to reach a plurality of stable positions along the guide, so as to lock of said motors to a plurality of different positions on the frame, to enable installation of a different number of motors and helical coils or installation of helical coils of different sizes.
