Coin sorting apparatus

The invention provides an apparatus for sorting various kinds of coins into various categories of coins. To this end, the invention includes a semicircular member having a plane surface and an arc surface. The semicircular member is capable of rotating between a first position wherein the plane surface is disposed substantially in the plane defined by a guiding edge and the arc surface is disposed within a guide rail and a second position wherein the plane surface is disposed normal to the guiding edge and the arc surface faces towards the upstream of the coin feeding direction. The semicircular member rotates from the first position to the second position when a first group coin is fed to collide with the semicircular member so as to diverge the coin away from the guiding edge so that the circumferential end of the coin closest to the guiding edge is disposed on a sort-out opening. The semicircular member returns to the first position when the coin passes the semicircular member.

Device and method for separating foreign objects from coins

METHOD AND APPARATUS FOR CONDITIONING COINS

A coin conditioner is provided for cleaning or otherwise conditioning coins in a coin discriminator apparatus prior to transfer to a coin sensor. Coins enter through a feed tray (1302) and move down the length of a perforated tumbler (1314), preferably without the use of gravity, such as under screw force, mechanical or centrifugal force. The spinning tumbler is preferably rotated about its longitudinal axis by a motor (1352). In one embodiment, a blower or vacuum draws or moves air from one area to another, with the air preferably being filtered. As coins move through and down a tumbler, projections such as vanes (1922a), fins, ridges, dimples (1820), spines or other raised features cause mechanical agitation and/or abrasion as coins are lifted and dropped while passing longitudinally ~ through the tumbler. The coins are conditioned and non-coin matter is collected as it is separated and/or abraded from the coin surfaces.

Disclosed is a coin dispensing apparatus in which coins are transported by first and second plates supported for rotation in stacked, overlapping relation and are rotated by motor in opposite angular direction. Each plate carries a plurality of coin receiving apertures with the apertures in each circularly arranged about the plates axis of rotation, the locus of centers of each plate's apertures being tangent. Successive apertures in the plates move into registration as the plates rotate to permit a coin on the surface of the first plate to move into an aperture of the second plate with each registration of the plate apertures.

High-speed coin sorting and counting apparatus

A coin-sorting and counting apparatus in which a mixture of coins of different denominations is deposited on a rotating surface and queued thereon by multiple coin guides. These coin guides define a coin-queueing channel for lining up coins on the rotating surface in an orderly fashion preparatory to introducing them into a coin-sorting channel. To increase the speed of sorting, a coin recirculation channel is also provided for receiving certain ones of the coins which have been moved by the rotating surface past the entrance to the coin-queueing channel and redirecting such coins to such entrance. One of the queueing channel guides also acts as a coin position retainer for retaining those coins which have been moved past the entrance of the queueing channel, without forming into the queue, at the same radial distance from the axis of the rotating surface while the surface moves such coins toward the recirculation channel.

Coin processing apparatus

In a coin processing apparatus, coins are inserted in a lump in a coin receiving unit, and are transferred through a conveyor section to a temporary retainer section, while the identifying unit identifies the coins when they are successively conveyed, and data concerning the coins identified are produced. After all the coins have been transferred out of the coin receiving unit, the coins are transferred from the temporary retainer section back to the coin receiving unit. When an accept command is inputted by an operator the coins having been transferred to the coin receiving unit are transferred again to the conveyor section, and the identifying unit identifies the coins as to denomination, and the separating devices selectively separate the coins from the conveyor path of the conveyor section in accordance with the result of the identification. The coins separated are led to containers respectively associated with the separating devices.

Spiral coin-queueing head for high-speed coin-sorting and counting apparatus

A coin-queueing head for use in a high-speed coin-sorting and counting apparatus is provided using a spiral coin-processing channel. Coins are fed from a central loading area through an infeed opening into an infeed area having a height permitting unrestricted outward travel of the coins to a peripheral limit having a generally helical shape. The coins are then fed into a coin-processing channel having a first portion for partially separating face-stacked coins. The coins then pass to a second ramped channel portion providing a gradual depessing of the coins and a sudden release into a third channel portion. An inwardly positioned camming lobe and an outwardly positioned expanded area are provided to facilitate lateral separation of the coins upon their release from the second channel portion. The trailing end portion of the third channel portion has a height to relieve the coins of all restriction and the peripheral limit is sloped upward to provide a smooth transition of the coins from their helical path to the circumferential peripheral rim of the disc. Recirculation is provided into the infeed area of coins positioned too far inward at the entry into the first channel portion.

Coin wiper for escalator hopper

A coin dispensing machine (10) of the type having a rotating pinwheel (22) is provided with a coin wiper (30) to substantially prevent coil jams. The wiper includes a resilient member (35) affixed to a stiffening member (40). The wiper is attached to the housing of the coil dispensing machine parallel to the surface of the pinwheel at a distance above the pinwheel surface about equal to a coin thickness, and along a chord of the pinwheel. As the pinwheel rotates, coins on the pinwheel surface are forced by the resilient member to lie flatly against the pinwheel surface or be rejected, thus minimizing jamming.

Pivoting tray for coin sorter

In the field of coin handling, and particularly coin sorting, it is important to keep different batches of coins separated from one another. A problem arises during the transfer of a batch of coins from a coin tray through an opening and into the coin sorting mechanism, because different batches of coins can inadvertently be mixed if the opening is not adequately protected. To solve this problem, a coin tray is provided that includes a coin holding portion which is adapted to be pivotally mounted on the coin sorter. The coin tray pivots between a coin holding position and a coin transferring position, and has an opening therein which allows coins to pass through the coin holding portion to the coin sorting mechanism. A barrier portion prevents coins on the coin holding portion from entering the opening when the coin holding portion is in the coin holding position. The barrier portion borders the opening, and is preferably stationary with respect to the coin handling machine. When the coin holding portion is lifted into the coin transferring position, the barrier portion allows coins on the coin holding portion to enter the opening because the coin holding portion is higher than the barrier portion. The interior of the barrier portion forms a chute which guides coins through the opening and into the coin handling mechanism.

Coin feeding device

The coin dispensing device is adapted to be disposed at the bottom of a vertical coin hopper and receives loose coins to be dispensed from the coin hopper. A first rotating agitator disk withdraws the loose coins from the coin hopper and feeds the coins through a central feed aperture in the first rotating disk. A fixed disk lies below the first rotating disk and has a dispensing slot therein that receives the coins from the central feed aperture. The coins to be dispensed are lined up in a row in the dispensing slot from the center of the fixed disk to the periphery thereof for dispensing through an exit slot in the fixed disk. A second rotating dispensing disk lies below the fixed disk and spring biased pusher balls on the second rotating disk push on the edge of each coin to push coins from the center of the fixed disk down the dispensing slot. The dispensing slot in the fixed disk sits adjacent to a coin tray where the loose coins that have been dispensed are accessible to the patron. The direction of rotation of the first and second rotating disks can be reversed to alleviate any interruption of coin dispensing that may be caused by coins bridging or jamming in the device.
