Dalaine Nolan as a Vending Machine.
This Vending Machine costume is definitely one of a kind. Our family had a lot of fun making the costume but we also had a lot of trouble with the costume. The box was a refrigerator box. It was cut down to the height of Dalaine. Brian, Dalaine, and I spent a lot of time making shelves out of cardboard boxes. When we got the shelves in we were not happy with how they were sagging in the middle and not able to support the weight of the candy. We were getting frustrated.
Then as I was looking around the box I said this box is so wide how will Dalaine be able to go through doors. Brian tells me it is too wide and she will not be able to go through doors. I told him this is unacceptable, as most of the places we take them to we have to go through doors. Brian had to take this box and cut the back off and tape and re-glue it. Once he decided to do that he decided that the best thing to use for the shelves was laminate wood as it would better support weight of the candy.
Dalaine loved to decorate the vending machine. When Dalaine first came up with the idea of a vending machine she said that she would love for people to be able to put money in and to be able to dispense candy out. So her and I put our heads together to come up with a way. Dalaine asked if all money that she made on the candy sales if she could donate it. During summer she goes to Casowasco camp, so the money that she raised is going to Tyrone United Methodist Camper ship fund.
Dalaine went to her school’s Halloween party and a lot of kids were just in awe of her costume. When they were told that the vending machine actually dispensed candy and all the proceeds were going to be donated, they wanted to see how it worked and were excited to get a candy bar. So when someone put a dollar in the slot, Dalaine would grab the money and it would look like it slide in the money taker. If they put coins in the coins slot she would get them in her hand. So the child would then of course press the buttons. I would be asking the child so what kind of candy bar are you getting and they would say and then Dalaine would bend down in her machine, as she had a bag full of candy bars and then grab that bar and dispense the candy in a tray (picture the tray was where the skittle’s sign is) and the child would push the skittles sign and reach in a get it.
This costume was a talk of conversation every where we went. People took pictures, they laughed, and they were amazed. In all it was a very good time.

ATTORNEY- JOSEPHINE GRIFFITH KJEHOIIE, 01E MEMPHIS, TENNESSEE.
BOTTLE-VENDING MACHINE.
Application filed February 13, 1922. Serial Ito. 536,077.
To all whom it may concern lBe it known that I, JOSEPHINE GRIFFITH Kenton, a citizen of the United States,.residing in Memphis, in the county of Shelby and State of Tennessee, have invented a certain new and useful Improvement in Bottle-Vendin Machines, of which the following is a ful clear, and exact description, such as will enable anyone skilled in the art to make and use the same.
My invention relates to machines for dis pensing small packages, especially bottles which it is desired to keep ice cold and which will dispense one at a time.
The. objects of my invention are'to provide such a device which=can be economical-ly iced, which will keep a large number of the bottles cold, which will dispense the bottles one at a time, and which will automatically feed in an additional bottle as each bottle is taken out; it is further the object of my invention to do this so that the bottles will be handled without danger of breaking and that the dispensing of the bottles will be under the control of an operator. A. further object to provide means of notifying the operator when a bottle has been paid for so that he may deliver the bottle to the purchaser.
I accomplish these objects as will be more fully hereinafter set out in the drawings, specifications and claims.
In the drawings:
Figure 1. Is a cross section of mynrachine showing one of the dispensing devices.
Figure 2. Is a section on the line II--II, of Figure 3.
Figure 3. Is an end elevation on an en larged scale showing the control mechanism for feeding'the bottles forward.
Figure I. Is a mechanical perspective of the outside of the machine showing same arranged for dispensing five different kinds of bottled goods.
In the drawings in which I have used reference numerals to indicate the same or like parts in all the views, 1, is-a cabinet arranged to hold a plurality of bottle dispensing devices all of'simila-r nature. These dispensing devices consist of a chain 2, running over sprocket wheels 3, 1, 5, and 6, the latter of which is arranged to operate the device, the other three sprocket wheels preferably being idlers. This chain carries spring clips 7, which are adapted to hold securely bottlei.
by, which this movement operated by hopper 25 which is 8,- these bottles being forced into the clips and when dispensed being forced out of the clips. The chain 2, is moved forward by rotating the driving sprocket 6. The method is accomplished is more clearly shown in Fig. 2 and Fig. 3 in which it will be seen that the sprocket wheel 6, has a hub 9 which extends over and has fastened thereto a ratchet wheel 10. En gaging with this ratchet wheel is aratchet pawl 11 which is carried by an arm 12, journaled on the shaft 13 on which the sprocket wheel 6 is also journaled. This arm 12 is moved by means of a rod 14 which extends outward thru an opening in the back of the cabinet 1. This rod is connected thru a bell crank lever 15 to a second rod 16 which is a foot lever 17 so that when the attendant presses down on the foot lever 17, the ratchet wheel 10 is moved forward one space, in this case one quarter of a revolution, moved a like amount carrying with it the chain 2. When this is done the bottle 8 is moved upward out of the ice cold water 18 in the bottom of the cabinet andcomes into contact with fingers 19, one of which is on each side of the sprocket wheel 4. These fingers 19 strip or pull the bottle out of the holder 7 and in so doing force it outward thru a trap door 20 in the front of the cab: inet allowing the bottle to roll forward in a receiving trough 21 where it is within reach of the purchaser. The bottle 8 showing a bottle which has been so delivered. The trap door 20 is hinged by means of hinges 21 to the cabinet 1, and may be provided with a spring in order that it will be closed after the bottle passes thru the opening. When the door 20 swings outward,
clip forward and eventually dispensed. Botbe fed thru the channel 24 from a preferably at the back of the cabinet and within reach only of the attendant. If it be more convenient'however, thishopper can of course be moved for tles may and with it the sprocket wheel 6 is ward and placed directly over the front of the cabinet or at any other point on the top thereof which may be desired.
26 is a coin chute in which the necessary coin to pay for the bottle is placed. The coin 27 rolls backward and downward thru the chute eventually appearing at the back of the cabinet in full view of the attendant who is enabled to see whether the proper coin has been put in the slot. When the coin reaches the position shown, it preferably closes an electric circuit diagrammatically illustrated and lights a signal light 28 thru which the attendant is notified. YVhen the attendant sees the light flash on he in-- spects the coin and preferably removes same then steps on the foot lever 17 and delivers the bottle purchased in the manner hereinbefore described.
A plurality of these dispensing devices may be included in the one cabinet. In Fig.
l, I have shown this cabinet with hoppers, 25, 25*, 25, 25 and correspondently with five doors, 20, 20 20, 20 and 20. In this view I also show the bottles-8 delivered ready for the purchaser to remove same.
The cabinet is iced thru a door 29 at the end of the cabinet, at similar door may be placed at the other end if so desired. Ice
ispushed thru this door andreceived on an,
ice rack 30 which extends from end to end of the cabinet. In Fig. 1 two cakes of ice 31 are shown though these may represent=of course additional cakes directly in line therewith. It will be seen that by having a chain passing around the sprocket wheels as shown, it is possible to provide this extra icing feature and enable the cabinet to be effectually iced at a minimum of trouble.
It will of course, be understood that each of the dispensing chains is similar to the one shown. I
In the detailed view of the ratchet-wheel shown in Fig. 3 it has not been thought necessary to show a spring for holding the pawl 11 in engagement with ratchet wheel 10 as such springs are well known and do not need detail illustration.

Having now described my invention what I claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent in the United States is:
1. In a bottle vending machine, a cabinet, a bottle holding carrier means for advancing the said carrier step by step, a discharge opening through the front of the said cabinet, a door normally closing the said discharge opening, fingers attached to the said cabinet for stripping a bottle from the said carrier and forcing the said door open, fingers extending above the said door for forcing a bottle into loading position relative to the said carrier and means for forcing the bottle into the said carrier.
2. In a bottle vending machine, a cabinet, a carrier mounted within the said cabinet, a plurality of bottle holders attached to the said carrier, means for advancing the said carrier step by step, an opening through the front of the said cabinet, a door normally closing the said opening and hinged at its top to the said cabinet, fingers within the said cabinet attached thereto above the said door and extending downward and backward on each side of the said carrier for removing a bottle from each of the said holders in succession as the carrier is advanced, and forcing the said bottle outward through the said door, fingers extending upward from the top of the said door adapted to place a bottle in loading position relative to a holder on the carrier Where the said door is forced open by means for forcing the bottle so placed into the said holder.
3. In a bottle vending machine, a cabinet, a carrier mounted within the said cabinet, a plurality of spring clips attached to the said carriers, means for advancing the said carrier step by step, a discharge opening through the front of the said cabinet, a door normally closing the said discharge opening, fingers within the said cabinet and attached thereto for stripping a bottle from each of the said clips as the latter are advanced opposite the said door and thereby forcing the bell crank lever mounted on the back of the said cabinet, and extending from the said am to the saidbell crank lever, a lever adapted to be depressed by foot pressure, a spring normally holding the said lever in a raised position and a rod connecting the said bell crank lever and the said foot lever.
In testimony whereof I have hereunto set. my name.
JOSEPHINE GRIFFITH KEHOE.
