Here's how it works
Inserting a CoinThe machine accepts ~24mm dia. coins (25¢ USD, 25¢ CAD, €0.50, £0.10, etc) and rejects others via coin return.
|
Unlocking the DispensersUpon payment, the mechanism unlocks for the customer to serve themselves pudding through pure mechanics.
|
Pouring the IngredientsBy turning the big cookie, pneumatics dispense milk, gears dispense pudding powder, and a conveyor belt dispenses a cookie—all at once.
|
Mixing the PuddingThe pudding cup slides to a mixing station, where a device mixes the milk and powder together.
|
Retrieving the Money
Hidden in plain sight, the owner can collect their earnings by removing the camouflaged coin tray.
|
Restocking the MachineThe roof comes off in three panels, allowing for easy refills, and there is easy access to the milk.
