Definitions

  • the invention relates to a checkout device for a self-seller with a credit facility, with a flap which, in its rest position, blocks a cash return channel and a checkout channel, which can be pivoted out of its rest position in one direction by the stroke of a money return key and which is coupled to the credit facility for its reset .
  • Such a checkout device is described in DE-GM 7 909 710.
  • the flap covers both the return channel and the checkout channel in their rest position.
  • the coins recorded by the credit facility fall on the flap.
  • the space above the flap is dimensioned so that it can hold a large number of coins. If the buyer has inserted coins corresponding to the sales price, these are recorded by the credit institution.
  • the corresponding dispenser of the self-seller is actuated, the goods issue is then released and the flap pivots so that the coins fall into the cashier channel.
  • a disadvantage of the reverse lock according to DE-GM 7 909 710 can in some cases be that coins that are inserted later during a short-stroke actuation of the money return key always get into the return, without this incorrect operation being readily recognized as such by the buyer. In addition, if the reverse lock fails, it cannot be guaranteed that the inserted coins will never be returned until the credit facility has been reset to its zero value.
  • the object of the invention is to design a checkout device of the type mentioned at the outset with mechanical means such that the credit facility is securely reset when the coin return button is actuated when coins are returned without a reverse lock for the return button being necessary.
  • the above object is achieved in a device of the type mentioned at the outset in that the flap keeps the money return channel blocked during a first partial stroke of the money return button and the credit facility is reset, and in that a subsequent second partial swing pivots the flap into the money return channel in such a way that coins lie on it slide into the money return channel.
  • the flap has a pivotable flap part for pivoting during the second partial stroke, which is supported on a stop during the first partial stroke and tilts over the stop during the second partial stroke. This ensures that the entry cross-section that the coin channel offers the coins can easily be designed so large that coins that are not lying on the flap can also get into the money return channel without jamming.
  • the edge of the flap facing away from the pivotable flap part slides along a wall surface during the first partial stroke such that the space above the flap is blocked against the channels.
  • a coin validator 1 is provided in a self-seller, in which the goods dispensing devices are formed, for example, by pushbuttons or drawers (not shown).
  • An inlet funnel 2 of the coin validator 1 is connected via an inlet channel 3 to an insertion slot 4 of the front 5 of the self-seller.
  • the coin validator 1 has a pin 6, when it is pivoted it opens, coins standing in it falling into a counterfeit money channel 7.
  • the coin validator 1 has at least one outlet slot 8.
  • a corresponding number of coin channel chambers 9 adjoins the outlet slot or slots 8.
  • the respective status of the display roller 12 can be read through a window 14 in the front 5.
  • the cam disks 13 can be rotated manually relative to the display roller 12. They are set to a certain sales price by choosing a corresponding twist position.
  • a reset lever 15 is provided on the credit mechanism 11, with which the display roller 12 and the cam disks 13 are to be brought into their zero position. Coin counters of this type are known as mechanical credit mechanisms, for example from DE-GM 79 02 306.0. In such cases, the reset lever 15 serves at the same time to tension one or more springs which provide the energy required to drive the credit facility.
  • a cashier device 16 adjoins the coin channel chamber 9, which opens into a cashier channel 17 on the one hand and into a coin return channel 18 on the other hand.
  • a shaft 19 is mounted below the coin channel chamber or coin channel chambers 9, between the cashier channel 17 and the coin return channel 18, a shaft 19 is mounted to which a flap 20 is attached.
  • the shaft 19 lies in the middle of the flap 20.
  • the wall 21 of the cash register 16 is formed in part-circle shape above the flap 20, so that a tight connection of a flap edge is ensured.
  • the space available above the flap 20 is so large that a large number of coins can be temporarily stored on the flap 20 without difficulty.
  • the flap 20 is shown with solid lines in its rest position.
  • the checkout position of the flap 20 is indicated at 20 'and its return position is indicated at 20 ".
  • the flap 20 closes both the checkout channel 17 and the return channel 18. All the coins detected by the credit facility 11 thus initially fall on the flap 20, If the coins are sorted into the coin channel chambers 9 according to coin values (1, - DM; 2, - DM; 5, - DM), 20 partition walls can be provided on the flap to create your own channel.
  • An eccentric 22 is arranged on the shaft 19 at one end, and a pin 23 is fastened to the free end thereof. In the rest position of the flap 20, the pin 23 is opposite a stop edge 24 of a push rod 25.
  • the push rod 25 bears against an angle 26 ′ of a sliding plate 26, which runs on the inside of the front face 5 between guide rails 27.
  • the push rod 25 is inserted through slots of a lower guide piece 41 and an upper guide piece 45 and held by means of a spring 46.
  • the slot of the lower guide piece 41 gives the lower end of the push rod 25 freedom of movement.
  • the sliding plate 26 is displaceable by means of a money return button 29 protruding through a slot 28 in the front face 5.
  • the sliding plate 26 is more than twice as long as the slot 28, so that it covers the slot 28 from the inside in every displacement position.
  • an arm 30 is attached, which is assigned to a pivot lever 31 which engages over the pin 6 of the coin validator 1.
  • the slide plate 26 is pulled into its upper position by means of a tension spring 32.
  • the flap 20 has a flap part 33 which is otherwise pivotally mounted on the flap 20 by means of a joint 34. Between the flap part 33 and the flap 20 there is a support element 35, which is fastened to the flap 20 or the flap part 33 and engages under the other part.
  • the edge 36 of the flap part 33 opposite the joint 34 is supported in the rest position of the flap 20 on a stop 37 which is formed on a lever 38.
  • the lever 38 is pivotally mounted on an axis 39.
  • a stop edge 40 is provided at the stop 37.
  • the flap part 33 presses the lever 38 outwards at the run-up edge 40, which swivels about the axis 39 until the flap part 33 has reached the stop 37.
  • the lever 38 pivots under the flap part 33 due to its own weight.
  • a spring can be provided to reset the lever 38. If the stop 37 is rigidly attached to the cashier 16, the support member 35 is designed as a spring element.
  • a third eccentric 43 is arranged on the shaft 19. This forms with a drive rod 44 pivotably mounted on it, the free end of which is opposite the eccentric 43 and is mounted on the reset lever 15, a lever drive which is in the rest position of the flap 20 in the dead center position.
  • a rotation of the shaft 19 both clockwise and counterclockwise has the result that the reset lever 15 is moved in such a way that the credit mechanism 11 is reset to its zero value on the one hand and opened on the other.
  • the invention can also be used to advantage if the cashier device has a separate flap for coin return and coin collection.
  • the most favorable position of the joint 34 between the shaft 19 and the edge 36 of the flap part 33 opposite this can be easily determined.
  • the joint 34 of the shaft 19 is preferably somewhat closer than the edge 36 mentioned.
