Definitions

  • the present invention regards a coin or a token selector, the kind that is used in any machine which is able to provide a product, a good or a service, after having introduced the coins needed to pay the price.
  • the selector has been slightly improved, concretely in order to obtain a larger autonomy from the point of view of programming and other applications that can be executed.
  • coin selectors are usually able to detect the legal validity of the different types of coins, that is, coins that have different values.
  • selectors have different electromagnetic tools that are able to accomplish the convenient validation processes.
  • control dispositive that incorporates a LED type display and a series of accesories, among them the unavoidable keyboard which is used to introduce the commands.
  • This control group forms a dispositive foreign to the so called selector that is situated in its own grid linked to the selector through the necessary buses or connecting wires and through the appropiate connectors.
  • the coin selector and the control dispositive will be situated in different and appropiate places of the machine's core.
  • the coin selector proposed by the invention solves this problem in a highly satisfactory way.
  • the grid is also provided in one of its sides, preferably in one of its bigger sides, with four windows, one of which bears the alphanumeric display.
  • An acceptation switch is situated in another window, and a couple of switches for forward/backward sliding.
  • control is accomplished through a menu that offers a series of options that can be explored thanks to the forward/backward switches.
  • the desired option is selected through the acceptation switch, acceptation that will lead us later to a sub-menu from which we can enter new options in a similar way, and so on.
  • the specific desired function being internal or external to the selector performance, checking control parameters such as tension, stock, etc.
  • the coin selector that we propose includes a grid (1), no matter the configuration used, bearing inside the so called selecting mechanisms, no matter the type, but with the special particularity consisting in the location of the control unit in the core of that grid, without influencing its size or its shape.
  • This unit could be conventional and would be useful to control the programming and any other type of operation usually executed with this type of machines.
  • a large window (2) will be situated in the grid (1) of the coin selector, where an alphanumeric display will be placed (3).
  • the display comprehends eight screen modes.
  • Another window (4) is also situated in the grid (1), where the switch is (6). This is the acceptance switch related to the control system and to another two windows (5) and (5'), where a couple of switches (7) and (7') are located. Those are forward and backward switches useful for the operator to move from one menu to another during the programming process.
  • the alphanumeric display (3) will offer a menu to the operator.
  • the operator will be able to run over it thanks to the forward and backward switches (7) and (7'), until one of the options is selected.
  • the option will be operative thanks to the acceptation switch (6) which transforms the selected option into a sub-menu that will offer again a new series of possible options in the same way. This process can be repeated as many times as it is needed until the desired level is reached and becomes a precise and planned order (two switches have to be pressed to execute orders that bear with a risk of error).
