    • G07D9/00—Counting coins; Handling of coins not provided for in the other groups of this subclass

Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for counting and sorting coins according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a device of the generic type is previously known from DE 37 30 292 .
  • the rocker carrying the transport belt by means of deflection rollers is mounted in a pivot bearing at the end of the guideway and can be folded up about its pivot axis in the pivot bearing.
  • the conveyor belt is driven by a toothed gear, which can be driven by a hand crank that drives the coin plate via a bevel gear.
  • the disadvantage here is that the folded rocker only partially clears the sorting line, and that the rocker for cleaning the on this stored transport belt along with its deflection rollers, the rocker with its bearings must be removed.
  • Another disadvantage is the use of the toothed gear with the pinions which mesh with one another when the rocker is locked.
  • the invention is therefore based on the object to provide a device of the generic type, in which the rocker completely releases the guideway, which is also a sorting section, in the folded-up state, in which further easy removal of the rocker for cleaning the mounted on the rocker Transport belt is possible and in which only a short transmission path from the drive to the transport belt mounted on the rocker is necessary.
  • the belt drive is directly from the drive of the coin plate, e.g. derived from a hand crank or an electric motor, so that only a relatively short transmission path is necessary. Since the belt of the belt drive can be easily loosened when the swing arm is folded up, the swing arm can also be designed in a further embodiment of the invention in such a way that it can be easily removed from its pivot bearing for the purpose of cleaning the transport belt arranged on the swing arm.
  • the axis of the drive pulley of the belt drive and the pivot axis of the rocker are offset from one another in the axial direction, as a result of which the belt of the belt drive is relaxed when the rocker is folded up.
  • the belt of the belt drive is a toothed belt with toothed belt pulleys assigned to it in a particularly useful manner.
  • a device for counting coins which has a belt drive for the transport belts. These are mounted on a coin transporter that can be tilted about its transverse axis by means of deflection rollers.
  • a belt drive with belts that can be tensioned when a swing arm is folded down is not provided here.
  • the device for counting and sorting coins comprises a housing 1 with a cover plate 2, a coin plate 3 mounted therein, a tangent to this, in the plane of the cover plate 2 lying guideway 4 for the coins, which also serves as a sorting path for the coins serves, and a rocker 6 mounted above the guideway 4 in a pivot bearing 5, on which a conveyor belt 7 for the coins is mounted by means of two deflection rollers 8, 9.
  • the coin plate 3 which is surrounded by a peripheral edge 10 fixed to the housing, is driven in rotation about its axis 11 in the direction of the arrow 31.
  • the rotary drive takes place by means of a hand crank 12 as the drive element.
  • This acts on a pulley 13, the axis 14 of which is mounted in a bearing block 15 fastened on the cover plate 2.
  • a belt 32 in particular a tooth, runs around the pulley 13 belt, which acts on the axle 16 of the drive via a further pulley, which is mounted within the housing 1 and is not shown in detail.
  • the axis 16 drives a bevel gear, not shown, which in turn drives the axis 11 of the coin plate 3.
  • the coin plate 3 can be driven by an electric motor M arranged in the housing 1, which acts directly on the bevel gear and thus on the axis 11 of the coin plate 3.
  • the axle 16 with belt 32 and belt pulley 13, but not the hand crank 12 is present in order to drive a drive pulley 17 of another belt drive 18 located on the axle 14 in a manner described in more detail later.
  • the rocker 6 extends across the cover plate 2 of the housing, starting from the pivot bearing 5 shown on the right in FIG. 1 with the pivot axis 19 for the rocker 6 to a locking device 20 shown on the left in FIG. 1 for the rocker 6 in its working position.
  • the locking device 20 enables a detachable but secure locking of the rocker 6 extending over the guideway 4 in a manner not shown in detail.
  • a handle 21 is attached to the free rear end of the rocker 6 assigned to the locking device 20.
  • the guide track 4 located below the rocker 6 in its working position comprises a guide bar 22, along which the coins 23 conveyed by the coin plate 3 through an opening in the edge 10 surrounding the latter are guided by means of the transport belt 7.
  • the coins first pass a probe 24 for recognizing the value of the coins and then a sorting route (not shown in more detail) in the Size graded sorting openings through which the coins 23 are sorted out according to their size and value.
  • the transport belt 7 for the coins 23 is mounted by means of the two deflection rollers 8, 9 such that the lower run of the transport belt 7 can guide the coins over the guideway 4.
  • the deflection roller 8 is attached to the end of the guideway 4 near the free end of the rocker 6, whereas the deflection roller 9 is attached to the beginning of the guideway 4 above the coin plate 3 in the region of the opening of the edge 10.
  • a driven pulley 26 of the belt drive 18 is mounted on the axis 25 of the deflection roller 9. This consists in particular of a toothed belt drive made of toothed belts and two toothed belt pulleys 17 and 25 adapted to them.
  • the belt drive 18 is driven either via the hand crank 12 or via the electric motor M, both of which are on act in the axis 14 of the bearing block 15 drive pulley 17 of the belt drive 18.
  • the belt drive 18 in turn drives the deflection roller of the transport belt 7 for the coins 23 via the driven pulley 26.
  • the lower run of the transport belt 7 thus runs over the guide track 4 in a direction of movement extending tangentially from the coin plate 3.
  • the pivot axis 19 arranged within the pivot bearing 5 for the rocker 6 is offset by an amount X from the axis 14 of the drive pulley 17 of the belt drive 18.
  • the offset X extends in the direction of the driven pulley 25 of the belt drive 18, as shown in FIG. 1.
  • the offset extends thus parallel to the cover plate 2 of the housing 1. Due to this offset X, which is also shown in FIG. 2, the toothed belt of the belt drive 18 relaxes when the rocker arm 6 is swiveled up by 90 °, so that the toothed belt of the belt drive 18 shows FIG. 2 in broken lines shown position occupies.
  • the toothed belt of the belt drive 18 can be easily removed from its two pulleys, namely the drive pulley 17 and the driven pulley 25.
  • rocker 6 can also be removed from the device in its folded-up position.
  • a fork-like swing pivot 27 (FIG. 4) is fastened on the cover plate 2, the bore 28 of which has a slot 29 which is open at the top.
  • a rocker nut 30 is laterally attached to the rocker 6 and is flattened on two sides parallel to the longitudinal direction of the rocker 6, as is also shown in FIG. 4.
  • the two flats 33 have the distance between the width of the slot 29 from each other, so that the rocker nut 30 can be inserted through the slot 29 of the swing arm 27 into the bore 28 in the swing arm 6, in which the rocker nut 30 is then rotatable, so that the rocker 6 can then be folded down into its working position shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.
  • the rocker 6 is easily detachable from the housing 1 of the device, so that easy cleaning of the conveyor belt 7 mounted on the rocker 6 by means of the deflection rollers 8, 9 is made possible.
  • the rocker arm 6 has a rocker nut 30 on each side for engagement in a rocker pivot 27 on both sides of the rocker arm 6.
