Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a sorting device for coins or the like (subsumed under the term coins) disc-shaped objects according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • a device of this type is known from DE-PS 34 19 589 and WO 87/07742.
  • the coins identified in a coin recognition device are deflected from the guideway by means of a separating element in such a way that, depending on the coin type, they are used by a coin-specific receiving device, for example, a collecting device.
  • a separating element is assigned to each of these collecting devices - viewed in the direction of conveyance of the coins - that, depending on a coin-specific "sorting signal" generated in the coin recognition device, is inserted into the guideway Time of coin recognition generated per se and transmitted as a temporal or mechanical measured variable or function variable to the corresponding separating element.
  • the problem underlying the present invention consists in specifying a sorting device of the generic type, in which the coins are safe and flawless even at very high processing speeds, i. H. clearly, be sorted.
  • each receiving device and thus each separating element is assigned its own position detection element, which is specified in more detail in the characterizing part of patent claim 1.
  • the sorting device 1 consists of a - not shown - frame frame resting base plate, the z. B. consists of a rotating coin plate 3 and a just adjacent worktop 4.
  • the coin plate 3 rotates about an axis (arrow X) oriented perpendicular to the plane of the drawing (and thus to the worktop 4) and is surrounded by a raised collar 5.
  • This collar 5 has - with respect to the coin plate 3 - an approximately tangential recess, to which - also tangential to the coin plate 3 - a straight guide track 7 for the coins 6 is connected. In the drawing, this guideway 7 is level with the worktop 4 and with the coin plate 3.
  • the guideway 7 is designed in detail as follows: A rail 8 placed on the worktop 4 forms a lateral edge 9 of the guideway 7, along which the coins 6 are transported away from the coin plate 3 (arrow Y). Along the guideway 7, at a distance from the lateral edge 9 mentioned, several, in particular rectangular, sorting openings 10.1 ... 10.6 are provided, behind or below which receiving or. Collection devices for the corresponding coins 6 are arranged.
  • the sorting openings 10.i are incorporated at a distance from the rail 8 parallel to the latter in the guideway 7 in such a way that their second longitudinal edges lying away from the rail 8 define a distance to the side edge 9 which must be less than the diameter corresponds to the smallest coin 6 to be processed.
  • the guideway 7 thus consists in the area of the sorting openings 10.i only of a relatively narrow guide bar 11 and that on the second edge of the sorting out openings 10.i adjacent part of the worktop 4.
  • the sorting device 1 described so far is functionally supplemented by a resiliently mounted conveyor belt 17 arranged above and along the guideway 7.
  • This conveyor belt 17 lies from above against the work table 4 and thus against the second side of the coins 6 and transports them frictionally along the guideway 7.
  • the conveyor belt 17 is arranged slightly obliquely relative to the direction of the guideway 7, so that the coins 6 are also safely guided along the edge 9 of the guideway 7.
  • the movement of the coins 6 along the guideway 7 can also be achieved without a conveyor belt, in that the guideway 7 is realized as an "inclined plane".
  • a device for identifying a specific type of coins (coin detection device) 18 is arranged as the core of the sorting device 1.
  • This coin recognition device 18 checks each coin individually during the sorting operation, which particular type it is. This check is carried out in each case as a function of a position detector integrated in the coin recognition device 18, which in each case detects the specific recognition pattern of a coin 6 to be checked with predetermined, i.e. H. compares previously stored calibration patterns when the coin 6 lies at a certain position above the coin recognition device 18.
  • a coin-specific sorting signal is generated in the coin recognition device 18 for each coin 6, which signals that the coin order mediated between this coin 6 and the sorting opening 10.i corresponding to the type of this coin.
  • a separating element 12.1.12.6 is provided in front of the sorting openings 10.i, viewed in the conveying direction Y of the coins 6.
  • a separating element 12.i If a separating element 12.i is activated, it engages in the guideway 7 in such a way that the coin 6 which has just been transported along the guideway 7 is laterally deflected becomes.
  • the thickness of the separating elements 12.i that is to say the lateral deflection, is chosen so that a coin 6 guided past tilts into the subsequent sorting opening 10.i.
  • sorting openings 10.1 ... 10.6 arranged i.e. Six (or even fewer) coin types can be sorted via the respectively assigned six separating elements 12.1 ... 12.6.
  • the separating elements 12.1..12.6 are activated depending on the sorting signal of the coin recognition device 18 and deflect the corresponding coin 6 towards the associated sorting opening 10.i.
  • each separating element 12.i is assigned its own position detection element 14.1 ... 14.6. When viewed in the direction of conveyance Y, these position detection elements 14.i each lie in front of the associated separating elements 12.i and the associated sorting openings 10.i
  • the position detection elements 14.i are now informed as a function of the test result of the coin detection device 18 by the position detection element (s) 14i, viewed in the direction of conveyance Y, whether the next coin 6 of the flowing coin flow into the subsequent sorting opening 10 .i should be derived. If the sorting signal corresponding to a certain type of coin is "looped through" to the corresponding position detection element 14.i, then a control signal is emitted to the corresponding separating element 12.i exactly when the coin in question is present. This means that this next coming coin is derived into the assigned sorting opening 10.1.
  • each sorting opening 10.i is preceded by its own position detection element 14.i, time shifts between the sorting signal generated in the coin detection device 18 and the time when a coin 6 actually arrives at the selected sorting opening are eliminated from the outset. It is now also possible to sort coins of the same size but different meaning in sorting openings of the same or different sizes.
  • the sorting device 1 according to the exemplary embodiment shown in the drawing will be explained again below in terms of its mode of operation
  • a corresponding sorting signal is generated in the coin recognition device 18, which is first written into a register line corresponding to the position detection element 14.1.
  • This register line is part of a register (not shown) assigned to the central coin recognition device 18, which has as many lines as the sorting device comprises receiving devices 10.i, that is to say has to separate coin types.
  • a comparison between this last-mentioned sorting signal and a separate identification signal that is permanently stored or wired in the register line leads to the result that the separating element 12.1 must not be actuated because a sorting signal belonging to the coin to be separated does not match this identification.
  • the sorting signal is then successively overwritten to a second, third, fourth and finally to a fifth register line, and in the figurative sense looped through to the position detection element ... 14.5.
  • the associated separating element 12.5 is activated. This separating element 12.5 causes the coin 6 'to be fed to its associated receiving device 10.i.
  • the essence of the invention is to generate the control signals for the separating elements that are required per se for the sorting process really precisely with the arrival of the respective coin, without using or taking into account mechanical and temporal function variables.
  • This can also be achieved, for example, by means of a position detection element operating as a counter, which is informed by the central coin recognition device (sorting signal) which of the coins "flowing past” is to be sorted out. If the counter now counts, it can control the separating element at the correct (coincidence) time.
