Abstract: The present invention relates to an adaptable product storage and extraction tray, intended for being installed in a vending machine having several compartments. The widths of the compartments can be modified in a short time, in a very simple manner and eliminating the need to take out all the products stored in the different compartments to make these adjustments. The tray comprises a base, a front profile, dividing partitions which limit compartments, extractor assemblies, support plates which support the product, where the extractor assemblies, the dividing partitions and the support plates have the possibility of transverse displacement and where the support plates can be transversely coupled to one another and can be separately removed to constantly adjust the width of the compartments.

Abstract: It comprises reception means for enabling coins to access the coin mechanism; identification means for determining the acceptability, type and value of the accessing coins; a coin storage compartment for selectively housing and delivering the coins destined for being refunded to a user, where the coin storage compartment comprises a plurality of tubes, according to rows and columns; extraction means for selectively extracting the coins from the tubes; and raising means for selectively raising any of the tubes during extraction of the coins, in order to momentarily provide a space for each coin to exit without colliding with the adjacent tubes. It allows greater optimisation of the use of the space destined for the coin mechanism, particularly the coin storage compartment.

Abstract: Water distributor comprising: a first hot water inlet pipe with two outlets; a second pipe with first inlets, each of them being connected to the corresponding first outlet by means of a third pipe, said second pipe further comprising several second outlets; a rod having at least one narrowing and sliding within said second pipe by action of some actuating means; and water tightness means situated on both sides of each of the second outlets. The positioning of the narrowing of the rod with respect of the water tightness means of each outlet determines whether water will be allowed to flow through said outlet or not.
