Abstract
A product dispensing device includes: product accommodating passages; a dispensing mechanism which regulates a product from moving toward the downstream side in a standby state, and dispenses a product positioned at the most downstream side; a disc-shaped member which rotates in one or another direction; link members each of which has a standby attitude in a normal state to cause the dispensing mechanism to be in the standby state, and causes the dispensing mechanism to be driven when swinging from the standby attitude to have a dispensing attitude; and a hook member which causes the link member to swing to have the dispensing attitude when the disc-shaped member rotates in the one direction so that the distal end abuts against the link member, and retreats from the radially outer region when the disc-shaped member rotates in the other direction so that the distal end abuts against the link member.
