| | spiral, drum | Explanation:
Just a suggestion:
"General Merchandisers - food: These machines are found mainly in industrial catering locations and dispense virtually any type of food, including pizza, salad and full pre-plated meals (via a microwave oven). These are usually "rotating drum" machines. They contain circular shelves, divided into segments, which are mounted on a spindle to form a "drum". Button selection causes the drum to rotate until the product selected arrives at the machine door, which is then opened to obtain the food."
There are many types of can vending machine but the basic mechanical concept is simply a development of the gravity system described above. In order to dispense a variety of drinks, machines are fitted with shelves, hoppers or spiral racks and delivery is controlled by a trap which is released as soon as the machine accepts the coin and the appropriate button is pressed.
