A merchandise push-out device for a vending machine, which pushes forward the lowermost piece of merchandise in a merchandise stocker in which merchandise is stacked vertically and supports the remaining pieces of stacked merchandise in a substantially horizontal position. A rocking arm has an upper end which is rocked back and forth from a support shaft by a motor drive. A merchandise push-out roller is attached to the upper end of the rocking arm, and a merchandise support roller is attached to the push-out roller below it with a link. When the rocking arm is rocked, the push-out roller, utilizing vertical play in the rocking arm, is moved forward in the horizontal linear direction to push-out the lowermost piece of merchandise. While the lowermost merchandise is being pushed out, the upper merchandise is supported by the support roller, which is pulled into place by the push-out roller. The push-out member and the support member work in tandem to prevent the upper merchandise from tilting extensively. During the merchandise push-out operation, no upward force is applied to the stacked merchandise, and, therefore, the motor load and the power consumption are reduced.

A laundry system includes a home terminal device and laundry apparatus. The terminal device includes a first short-range communication device, a long-range communication device, and a terminal device controller transmitting information about laundry and a laundry constraint to a server connected to an Internet, thereby obtaining an operation control program for the laundry apparatus. The terminal device controller transfers the program via the first short-range communication device to the laundry apparatus and receives via the first short-range communication device information about an operating state of the laundry apparatus. The laundry apparatus includes a second short-range communication device, a laundry apparatus controller, and a laundry unit. The controller receives the program via the second short-range communication device from the terminal device to control the laundry unit and transfers the information about the operating state of the laundry apparatus via the second short-range communication device to the terminal device.

A laundry system (1) includes a home terminal device (3) and laundry apparatus (4). The terminal device includes a first short-range communication device (8), a long-range communication device (7), and a terminal device controller (9) transmitting information about laundry and information about a laundry constraint to a server (2) connected to an Internet (5), thereby obtaining an operation control program for the laundry apparatus. The terminal device controller transfers the obtained operation control program via the first short-range communication device to the laundry apparatus and receives via the first short-range communication device information about an operating state of the laundry apparatus. The laundry apparatus includes a second short-range communication device (15), a laundry apparatus controller (17), and a laundry unit (16). The laundry apparatus controller receives the operation control program via the second short-range communication device from the terminal device to control the laundry unit and transfers the information about the operating state of the laundry apparatus via the second short-range communication device to the terminal device.
