Abstract

A gravity fed dispensing device of the type designed to serially dispense a plurality of cylindraceous containers. The containers to be dispensed are charged into the device at the top thereof, and follow a series of downwardly descending ramp means to the discharge station. Each successive ramp means segment is sloped in a direction opposite to the direction of slope of the ramp means segment that precedes and succeeds it. The ramp means are disposed in interconnecting relation to transversely spaced sidewall members, and a tray member is defined by one set of sidewalls interconnected by a pair of such ramp means segments, adjacent the upper and lower edges thereof. The tray members are stackable to increase the storage capacity of the device as desired, and the ramp means segments are specifically positioned so that the upright and overturned positions of the tray members are identical.
