  • Patent number: 8161782
    Abstract: A locking system for access to a door of a vending machine includes an opening handle lock for guiding of a movable lock mechanism between a locked position and an unlocked position. An identification unit for electronic identification operates an electronic blocking device that is adjustable between a) an inactive position where it does not actuate the opening handle lock and where the safety lock not may be opened from the outside, and b) an active position where it actuates the opening handle lock such that it may be opened from the outside. The identification unit also controls the electronic blocking device in such a way that a positive identification moves the electronic blocking device to the active position. A safety lock is arranged that may be actuated independently of the identification unit, and by which the movable lock mechanism might be guided between the locked position and the unlocked positions.
