A vending machine dispenses items such as snacks, beverages, cold drinks, salads, energy bars, chocolates and many more items to customers automatically, after the customer inserts currency or credit into the machine.

Machines have all time high stock of items to serve people with the collection of money received in exchange of the items. Thus vending machines are designed in a way to inhibit theft of these items and the money collection. These designs being made with all security measures result in designs similar in strength to safes.

Items stocked in vending machine like cold drinks, beverages, snacks make it heavy weighted machines; for example a fully loaded soft drink machine can weigh over 400kg (880 lbs). With the stock of heavy items the security designs results to high increase in weightiness of these machines.

Many a time people get injured due to the overturning of such machine on them, either while they are trying to steal items from machine, or when they hit the machine hard to vent out their frustration over the malfunctioning of the machine not delivering the desired purchased item.

The history records many such cases where people have met with vending machine accidents which had led to severe injuries and deaths of many. There have been 15 cases in which people met with such accidents, being crushed by machine just while trying to get out a can from vending machine and from this 15 cases, 3 have been reported to be dead and other 12 were hospitalized having severely injured. These injuries included fractures of skull, toe and ankle, intra cerebral bleeding, knee contusion etc.
