Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a coin separating device.
  • the present invention is based on the object of providing a coin separating device which is capable of reliably ensuring that the coins are separated correctly even when there are two or more coins in a receiving space.
  • Fig. 1 the section of the beginning of a coin separating device is shown, which is structurally related to the device according to DE-A-26 09 788, but differs from the latter primarily in the other design of the driving plate, as is shown in FIG 2 to 6 will be explained in more detail.
  • the coin separating device has a collecting container 1 for the coins to be sorted as well as a driving disk 2 which, in a manner to be described later, brings the coins out of the collecting container 1 to a sorting rail (not visible in FIG. 1).
  • the inclined drive plate 2 is approximately parallel to an inclined plate 4 held in a frame 3.
  • a shaft 5 is freely rotatable in this plate 4.
  • a pulley 6 and a gear 7 are attached to the end 5a of the shaft 5 which extends on the inside of the plate 4a.
  • the driving plate 20 is fastened, for example by means of screws.
  • a drive belt 8 runs over the pulley 6 and is driven by a motor, not shown.
  • the gear wheel 7 meshes with a pinion 11, which is mounted on a bearing pin 12 fastened to the rear side of the plate 4.
  • a sprocket 13 is rotatably connected, which is provided for driving a conveyor chain, not shown, which conveys the coins emitted from the driving plate 2 onto the already mentioned sorting rail to a sorting device, also not shown, by means of conveyor bolts, as has already been done in the mentioned DE-A-26 09 788 is described in more detail.
  • the driving plate 2 has a plurality of receiving spaces 21 which are arranged along a concentric circle and are open towards the front and closed off at the rear by a base 21a.
  • An ejector 22 is arranged in each receiving space 21.
  • Each ejector 22 has a bolt 23, which extends through the driving plate 2 and is guided in the latter in an axially movable manner and carries a disk-shaped ejection element 25 at one end.
  • a ring 26 is also attached to the bolt 23, on which one end of a compression spring 27 is supported, the other end of which rests on the underside of the driving plate 2.
  • the rear end 28 of the bolt 23 is pressed by the compression spring 27 against a control cam 29, which extends coaxially to the axis of the shaft 5 and has 25 regions of different heights for controlling the movement of the ejection elements, which is still to be described.
  • the control curve 29 extending along an arc is preferably closed.
  • FIG. 2 shows a plan view of the driving plate 2 with the collecting container 1 omitted, the sorting rail 30 mentioned earlier is shown.
  • FIG. 2 further shows a wiper 31 formed by a thin sheet metal, which is fixedly attached to the frame 3 in a manner not shown in detail.
  • a through hole 32 is formed in the bottom 21a of each receiving space 21, that serves to guide the pin 23 of the assigned ejector 2. Furthermore, a further through hole 33 is provided in said bottom 21a, which is offset from the through hole 32 and which serves to receive a guide pin 34 which is provided on the underside of the ejection element 25 (see FIG. 6). A rotation of the ejector 22 in the receiving space 21 is prevented by the pin 34 passing through the through hole 33.
  • Each receiving space 21 has a substantially cylindrical shape and is provided at the confluence with the flat front surface 2a of the driving plate 2 with a crescent-shaped guiding surface 35 which is chamfered and falls from the front surface 2a of the driving plate 2 towards the interior of the receiving space 21.
  • This bevelled guide surface 35 is provided in the edge region 36 of the receiving space 21, which, viewed in the direction of rotation A of the driving plate 2, is directed toward the axis of rotation 2 'of the driving plate 2.
  • the height h 'of the edge 21b of the receiving space 21 is correspondingly smaller than the height h of the remaining edge area of the receiving space 21 (see FIG. 4).
  • Each ejection element 25 has two surfaces 37 and 38 inclined towards one another, as can be seen in particular from FIG. 6.
  • the surface 37 runs approximately at right angles to the longitudinal axis 23a of the bolt 23 and thus approximately parallel to the front surface 2a of the drive plate 2.
  • the other surface 38 then falls obliquely to the surface 37 against the edge 25a of the ejection element 25.
  • the sloping surface 38 is on the axis of rotation 2 'of the drive plate 2 facing side of the ejection element 25 is provided, as can be seen in FIG. 2.
  • the transition from surface 37 to surface 38 runs approximately along a diameter which is approximately perpendicular to the radial direction of drive plate 2.
  • the type and location of the transition from surface 37 to surface 38 can also be designed differently.
  • the driving plate 2 is driven in a rotating manner in the direction of arrow A.
  • the ejection elements 25 are in their rear end position, which can be seen from FIG. 2, in the area designated B in which the driving plate 2 dips into the collecting container 1. In this end position of the ejection elements 25, coins can now get into the receiving space 21.
  • the driving disk 2 continues to rotate, the ejection elements 25 begin at point C, which have reached their front end position at the point denoted by D, in which the surface 37 lies approximately in the plane of the front surface 2a of the driving disk 2. In this front end position, the ejection elements 25 are guided under the scraper 31.
  • the ejection elements 25 are moved back relatively quickly by a certain amount in order to prevent the coin from falling out of the receiving space 21 via the guide surface 35.
  • the ejection element 25 is rapidly moved forward, the surface 37 again coming to lie approximately in the plane of the front surface 2a.
  • the surface 38 and the guide surface 35 are designed such that in this ejection position of the ejection element 25, the surface 38 lies somewhat above the inner edge 35a of the guide surface 35 (FIGS. 2 and 5), so that the coin located in the receiving space 21 now hangs without it to remain on the guide surface 35 slides on the sorting rail 30, via which the coin is then, as already described, carried away.
  • the ejection elements 25 are then quickly moved back to their rear end position.
  • FIG. 8 also shows that a small space is formed between the coin 40 and the surface 37 of the ejection element 28, into which the very thin wiper 31 engages when the coin 40 drives past, without acting on the coin 40. In other words, the large coin 40 runs past the stripper 31. 8, the purpose of the obliquely extending surface 38 can now be readily recognized.
  • the ejection element 25 is less high in the region of the edge 25a facing the axis of rotation 2 'of the driving plate 2 than on the opposite side. This means that the coin 40 resting on the surface 38 can still be supported in the edge region 21c of the receiving space 21, although, as already mentioned, the surface 37 of the ejection element 25 is flush with the front surface 2a of the driving plate.
  • the inclination of the surface 38 is chosen such that the height a of the edge 21c on which the coin 40 is supported is less than twice the thickness of the thinnest coins, so that two of the thinnest coins cannot be supported on this edge 21c.
  • FIG. 10 shows the separation process with two coins 41 and 42 lying next to one another in a receiving space 21.
  • Both coins 41, 42 lie in such a way that they pass below the stripper 31, which does not extend beyond the surface 37 of the ejection element 25.
  • the leading coin 42 slips out of the receiving space in the area of the scraper 31 and before reaching point E via the beveled guide surface 35 21, as has already been described with reference to FIG. 9.
  • the other coin 41 is still supported in the edge region 21c of the receiving space 21 and is thus prevented from falling out.
  • This coin 41 is then conveyed to the ejection point F and transferred there to the sorting rail 30.
  • FIGS. 11 and 12 which is a sectional illustration comparable to FIG. 8) in which two small coins 41, 42 lie side by side in a receiving space 21.
  • the mutual position of the two coins 41, 42 is different in that one coin 41 comes to rest on the area 38 in the area of the position D, while the other coin 42 rests on the area 37.
  • the upper coin 42 is, as already described with reference to FIG. 9, gripped by the deflector 31 and thereby stripped by the ejection element 25, with the result that the coin 42 falls back into the collecting container 1.
  • the other coin 41 arrives at point F, where it is ejected onto the sorting rail 30.
  • the course of the surface 38 sloping backwards ensures that in the edge region 21c of the receiving space 21 facing the drive plate 2, a coin is also supported when the ejection element 25 assumes its front end position, in which the other surface 37 is aligned with the front 2a of the drive plate 2.
  • the coin resting on the surface 37 can be stripped off by the stripper 31 without the coin resting on the surface 38 falling out of the receiving space 21.
  • the beveled guide surface 35 has the result that the depth h 'of the receiving space 21 is less in its area than in the rest of the area. This means that when the ejection element 25 is in a certain position, a coin can slip out of the receiving space 21 via the guide surface 35, while a coin following in the direction of rotation A of the driving disk 2 can still be supported on the edge region 21c of the receiving space 21, as is shown in FIG Fig. 9 has been explained.
  • FIG. 13 differs from the exemplary embodiment according to FIGS. 1 to 12 in that there is no scraper, but instead a retaining element 44 in the form of a brush, which is fastened to a carrier 45, which is fixed in place.
  • the retaining element 44 acts on the area of the ejection elements 25 facing the axis of rotation 2 'of the driving plate 2, i.e. onto the area of the inclined surfaces 38.
  • the carrier 45 runs at a distance from the front side 2a of the driving plate 2.
  • the mode of operation of the retaining element 44 is as follows: If two coins, as shown in FIG. 10, lie next to one another in a receiving space 21, the coin advancing in the direction of rotation of the driving disk 2 is held back by the retaining element 44, ie prevented from further rotation. The coin retained in this way moves as the driving disk 2 continues to rotate upwards along the edge of the receiving space 21 towards the edge of the driving disk 2. The following coin is also pushed up and, as a rule seen in the direction of rotation A of the driving disk 2, falls backwards out of the receiving space 21. However, it is also possible for this subsequent coin to be moved under the carrier 45 and then over the bevelled guide surface 35 falls out of the receiving space 21 down into the collecting container 1. The coin which is initially leading and retained by the retaining element 44 is finally pushed under the retaining element 44 and, as explained with reference to FIG. 10, conveyed to the discharge point F.
  • the embodiment according to FIG. 14 differs from the embodiment shown in FIGS. 1 to 12 in that there is no scraper 31.
  • the variant according to FIG. 14 is conceivable for devices in which the driving disk 2 does not rotate at too high a speed.
  • the scraper 31 is missing.
  • the ejection elements 25 do not have two surfaces 37 and 38 which are inclined relative to one another. Rather, ejection elements 25 are used with a surface 37 'which is parallel to the front surface 2a of the driving plate 2.
  • This embodiment is also particularly suitable for devices with a driving disk 2 that does not rotate too quickly.
  • FIG. 16 corresponds to the embodiment according to FIG. 15 with regard to the configuration of the ejection elements 25.
  • there is also an additional retaining element 44 as is also used in the variant according to FIG. 13.
  • this retaining element 44 With regard to the mode of operation of this retaining element 44, reference is therefore made to the explanations relating to FIG. 13.
  • the embodiment according to FIG. 17 corresponds to the embodiment according to FIG. 13 with regard to the configuration of the ejection elements 25, but the beveled guide surface 35 is dispensed with.
  • the beveled guide surfaces 35 could be omitted.
