Description

La présente invention a trait aux publiphones (téléphones publics) et autres appareils à prépaiement susceptibles de recevoir plusieurs types différents de pièces de monnaie introduites en nombre et encaissées en succession.The present invention relates to payphones (public telephones) and other prepaid devices capable of receiving several different types of coins introduced in number and collected in succession.

Les appareils de ce genre comprennent généralement un dispositif agencé de manière à stocker les pièces introduites et à encaisser celles-ci une par une au fur et à mesure du service rendu. Lorsque toutes les pièces de monnaie sont obligatoirement identiques, un tel dispositif d'encaissement peut très simplement être constitué par un étrier monté à basculement à l'intérieur de la glissière oblique parcourue par les pièces subséquentes lorsque l'autre branche s'éclipse pour libérer la première pièce. Par contre, les choses se révèlent plus complexes quand le dispositif doit assurer le traitement de pièces qui diffèrent entre elles par leur diamètre et/ou leur épaisseur, et en pareil cas on a habituellement recours à des mécanismes plus compliqués, de construction plus coûteuse et de fonctionnement moins fiable.Apparatuses of this type generally include a device arranged so as to store the coins introduced and to collect them one by one as the service is rendered. When all the coins are necessarily identical, such a cashing device can very simply be constituted by a stirrup mounted to tilt inside the oblique slide traversed by the subsequent coins when the other branch disappears to release the first piece. On the other hand, things turn out to be more complex when the device must ensure the treatment of parts which differ from one another in their diameter and / or their thickness, and in such cases one usually uses more complicated mechanisms, of more expensive construction and less reliable.

C'est à cet inconvénient qu'entend principalement remédier le dispositif d'encaissement suivant l'invention, lequel est défini à la revendication 1.It is this drawback that the collection device according to the invention mainly intends to remedy, which is defined in claim 1.

Afin d'éclairer l'état de la technique, on peut citer les trois documents ci-après:

  • 1. DE-A-2 936 479 qui à pour objet un dispositif d'encaissement à échappement pour publiphones et autres appareils à prépaiement susceptibles de recevoir des pièces de monnaie, ce dispositif étant destiné à être disposé à la partie inférieure d'une glissière oblique propre à stocker les pièces introduites par l'usager et à les libérer une par une. Le dispositif d'écrit comprend un organe unique qui bascule suivant un axe orienté parallèlement à la glissière et qui comporte d'une part une partie transversale ou volet formant butée escamotable en bout de la glissière, et d'autre part des doigts latéraux agencés de façon à retenir les pièces en attente pendant que la pièce la plus basse est libérée. Il convient d'observer que ce dispositif ne peut convenir que pour des pièces identiques les unes aux autres.
  • 2. DE-A-2 010 374 qui a pour objet un dispositif d'encaissement dans lequel les pièces de monnaie sont retenues dans une glissière par le moyen d'un doigt unique qui exerce une pression sur la pièce qui suit immédiatement la pièce inférieure à libérer.
  • 3. FR-A-2 220 837 qui montre un dispositif sensiblement équivalent à celui indiqué sous 2 ci- dessus et qui apelle en conséquence des remarques identiques.
In order to clarify the state of the art, the following three documents can be cited:
  • 1. DE-A-2 936 479 which has as its object an exhaust cashing device for payphones and other prepaid devices capable of receiving coins, this device being intended to be placed at the bottom of a slide oblique suitable for storing the parts introduced by the user and for releasing them one by one. The writing device comprises a single member which rocks along an axis oriented parallel to the slide and which comprises on the one hand a transverse part or flap forming a retractable stop at the end of the slide, and on the other hand lateral fingers arranged so as to hold the waiting pieces while the lowest piece is released. It should be noted that this device can only be suitable for parts that are identical to each other.
  • 2. DE-A-2 010 374 which relates to a collection device in which the coins are retained in a slide by means of a single finger which exerts a pressure on the coin which immediately follows the lower coin to free.
  • 3. FR-A-2 220 837 which shows a device substantially equivalent to that indicated under 2 above and which therefore calls for identical remarks.

Le dessin annexé, donné à titre d'exemple, permettra de mieux comprendre l'invention, les caractéristiques qu'elle présente et les avantages qu'elle est susceptible de procurer:

  • Fig. 1 est une vue de côté avec arrachement, montrant l'agencement général d'un dispositif d'encaissement établi conformément à l'invention.
  • Fig. 2 en est une coupe transversale suivant le plan indiqué en 11-11 en fig. 1.
  • Fig. 3 est une vue en perspective faisant ressortir la conformation de l'organe basculant du dispositif.
  • Fig. 4 est une coupe transversale analogue à celle de fig. 2, l'organe basculant étant représenté à une autre position.
  • Fig. 5 à 7 sont des vues de côté semblables à fig. 1, illustrant le fonctionnement du dispositif.
The appended drawing, given by way of example, will allow a better understanding of the invention, the characteristics which it presents and the advantages which it is capable of providing:
  • Fig. 1 is a side view with parts broken away, showing the general arrangement of a collection device established in accordance with the invention.
  • Fig. 2 is a cross section along the plane indicated in 11-11 in FIG. 1.
  • Fig. 3 is a perspective view showing the conformation of the tilting member of the device.
  • Fig. 4 is a cross section similar to that of FIG. 2, the tilting member being shown in another position.
  • Fig. 5 to 7 are side views similar to FIG. 1, illustrating the operation of the device.

Sur le dessin, la référence 1 désigne la glissière oblique à l'intérieur de laquelle circulent les pièces de monnaie, ladite glissière étant formée par l'assemblage de deux parois fixes 2 et 3 (fig. 1 et 2), orientées verticalement; on observera que les pièces roulent en fait contre une facette oblique 3a ménagée longitudinalement dans la paroi 3 au droit de la face intérieure de la paroi 2, de façon à permettre le contrôle des dimensions desdites pièces, à la façon en soi connue. La glissière 1 comprend une entrée supérieure (non représentée) à travers laquelle les pièces de monnaie sont introduites une par une, et une sortie inférieure coudée 4 qui est commandée par le dispositif d'encaissement, lequel est agencé pour libérer une par une par échappement les pièces stockées par ledit dispositif dans la glissière 1.In the drawing, the reference 1 designates the oblique slide inside which circulate the coins, said slide being formed by the assembly of two fixed walls 2 and 3 (fig. 1 and 2), oriented vertically; it will be observed that the parts actually roll against an oblique facet 3a formed longitudinally in the wall 3 in line with the inner face of the wall 2, so as to allow the dimensions of said parts to be controlled, in the manner known per se. The slide 1 includes an upper inlet (not shown) through which the coins are introduced one by one, and a lower angled outlet 4 which is controlled by the casing device, which is arranged to release one by one by exhaust the parts stored by said device in the slide 1.

Ce dispositif comprend essentiellement un organe mobile 5 monté à basculement sur un axe fixe 6 porté par la partie supérieure de la glissière 1, convenablement échancré à cet effet; cet axe 6 est orienté longitudinalement par rapport à la glissière, de telle sorte que l'organe 5 bascule dans un plan transversal à celle-ci. Comme plus particulièrement montré en fig. 3, cet organe 5 est constitué par une partie cylindrique ou fût 5a qui est solidaire d'une part d'un volet terminal 5b engagé dans une entaille 2a de la paroi 2 de la glissière 1, d'autre part de deux bras latéraux ou doigts 5c et 5d décalés axialement l'un par rapport à l'autre le long dudit fût 5a.This device essentially comprises a movable member 5 mounted to tilt on a fixed axis 6 carried by the upper part of the slide 1, suitably indented for this purpose; this axis 6 is oriented longitudinally with respect to the slide, so that the member 5 rocks in a plane transverse thereto. As more particularly shown in fig. 3, this member 5 is constituted by a cylindrical part or barrel 5a which is integral on the one hand with an end flap 5b engaged in a notch 2a on the wall 2 of the slide 1, on the other hand with two lateral arms or fingers 5c and 5d offset axially with respect to each other along said barrel 5a.

On notera que les deux doigts 5c et 5d sont de longueur inégale, le doigt 5c prévu en bout de l'organe 5 étant plus court que le doigt 5d. Par ailleurs, chacun de ces deux doigts porte en bout un goujon ou pastille 5e qui fait face à la paroi 2 de la glissière.It will be noted that the two fingers 5c and 5d are of unequal length, the finger 5c provided at the end of the member 5 being shorter than the finger 5d. Furthermore, each of these two fingers carries at the end a stud or pad 5e which faces the wall 2 of the slide.

L'actionnement de l'organe basculant 5 est opéré de toute manière appropriée, par exemple à l'aide d'un petit électro-aimant 7 (fig. 2) porté par la paroi 3 de la glissière 1 et dont l'élément mobile 7a en forme de coude vient se disposer entre le deux jambes d'une fourche 5f solidaire du fût 5a. Cet électro-aimant est placé sous la dépendance du circuit de commande de l'appareil à prépaiement auquel le dispositif d'encaissement est associé.The actuation of the tilting member 5 is operated in any suitable manner, for example using a small electromagnet 7 (fig. 2) carried by the wall 3 of the slide 1 and whose movable element 7a in the form of an elbow is placed between the two legs of a fork 5f secured to the barrel 5a. This electromagnet is placed under the control of the control circuit of the prepayment device with which the collection device is associated.

Le fonctionnement de ce dispositif ressort des explications qui précèdent et se conçoit sans peine.The operation of this device is apparent from the foregoing explanations and is easily understood.

A la position normale de repos, c'est-à-dire lorsque l'électro-aimant 7 n'est pas excité, l'organe basculant 5 est à l'orientation illustrée en fig. 4; le volet 5b fait alors saillie dans la glissière 1, les doigts 5c et 5d étant à la position soulevée re-présentée. Dans ces conditions les pièces de monnaie introduites dans la glissière viennent se stocker dans la partie inférieure de celle-ci au fur et à mesure de leur introduction, la première d'entre elles butant contre le volet 5b en position d'arrêt et les suivantes venant porter les unes contre les autres.In the normal rest position, that is to say when the electromagnet 7 is not excited, the tilting member 5 is in the orientation illustrated in FIG. 4; the flap 5b then projects into the slide 1, the fingers 5c and 5d being in the raised re-pre position smelled. Under these conditions, the coins introduced into the slide are stored in the lower part thereof as they are introduced, the first of them abutting against the flap 5b in the stopped position and the following coming to bear against each other.

Quand l'électro-aimant 7 est excité, l'organe 5 bascule autour de l'axe 6 pour venir affecter l'orientation montrée en fig. 2. Par suite de l'escamotage du volet 5b à l'intérieur de l'entaille 2a, le chemin de roulement formé par la facette longitudinale 3a de la glissière 1 est libéré, de telle sorte que la première pièce de monnaie peut rouler par gravité et traverser la sortie coudée 4 pour être encaissée. Simultanément les doigts 5c et 5d sont venus s'appliquer contre la pièce immédiatement en amont, si bien que cette dernière est retenue dans la glissière 1 avec les autres pièces en attente; ce n'est que lorsque l'électro-aimant 7 n'est plus excité que par suite du retour de l'organe 5 à la position d'origine les doigts précités relâchent leur pression latérale et que l'ensemble des pièces en attente peut se déplacer vers le bas jusqu'à ce que la première d'entre elles vienne buter contre le volet 5b, lui-même revenu à la position initiale.When the electromagnet 7 is energized, the member 5 rocks around the axis 6 to affect the orientation shown in fig. 2. Following the retraction of the flap 5b inside the notch 2a, the raceway formed by the longitudinal facet 3a of the slide 1 is released, so that the first coin can roll by gravity and cross the bent outlet 4 to be cashed. Simultaneously the fingers 5c and 5d have applied against the part immediately upstream, so that the latter is retained in the slide 1 with the other parts waiting; it is only when the electromagnet 7 is no longer excited that as a result of the return of the member 5 to the original position the aforementioned fingers release their lateral pressure and that all of the waiting parts can move down until the first of them comes into contact with the flap 5b, itself returned to the initial position.

On remarquera qu'en dépit de sa simplicité de construction le dispositif d'encaissement assure un fonctionnement totalement fiable, complètement à l'abri de tout déréglage intempestif. En fig. 1, 5, 6 et 7 on a supposé que les pièces de monnaie introduites dans la glissière 1 étaient de deux types différents, les pièces de grand diamètre ayant été référencées D, celles de plus petit diamètre d, et l'on peut observer que moyennant un positionnement précis des deux doigts 5c et 5d le long de fût 5a de l'organe basculant 5, on obtient bien le blocage efficace des pièces en attente dans la glissière 1, quel que soit l'ordre de celles-ci (une petite d suivie d'une grande D en fig. 1, deux petites d en fig. 5, deux grandes D en fig. 6, et une grande D suivie d'une petite d en fig. 7).It will be noted that, despite its simplicity of construction, the cashing device ensures totally reliable operation, completely protected from any untimely adjustment. In fig. 1, 5, 6 and 7 it was assumed that the coins introduced into the slide 1 were of two different types, the large diameter coins having been referenced D, those of smaller diameter d, and it can be observed that by means of a precise positioning of the two fingers 5c and 5d along the barrel 5a of the tilting member 5, the effective blocking of the pieces waiting in the slide 1 is obtained, whatever the order of these (a small d followed by a large D in fig. 1, two small d in fig. 5, two large D in fig. 6, and a large D followed by a small d in fig. 7).

Un résultat équivalent est susceptible d'être obtenu lorsque la glissière 1 est parcourue par des pièces de plus de deux types différents, quitte à doter le fût 5a de l'organe basculant 5 d'un nombre de doigts latéraux supérieur à deux. On observera que les pastilles 5e améliorent sensiblement l'effet de portée des doigts précités contre les pièces de monnaie.An equivalent result is likely to be obtained when the slide 1 is traversed by parts of more than two different types, even if it means providing the barrel 5a of the tilting member 5 with a number of lateral fingers greater than two. It will be observed that the pellets 5e appreciably improve the bearing effect of the aforementioned fingers against the coins.
