Abstract: An adjustable, self-leveling dispenser for stacked plates or platters has a pressure head within a plate well or tank and a plurality of tension springs peripherally arranged about the outer periphery of the tank and connected between first arcuate support members movable along the outside of the tank and second arcuate support members fixed with respect to the tank, the first arcuate support members being secured to radial support members projecting through longitudinally-extending slots in the tank for yieldingly supporting the pressure head from underneath. A plurality of guide rod members vertically disposed in spaced relation within the tank and stepwisely adjustable along a range of distances outwardly of the center of the pressure head serve as abutment slide means for guiding peripheral edge portions of any selected size of a wide range of sizes of stacked plates to be dispensed.
