Abstract

In a coin separation device with a rotating feed plate (3), the coin-collecting space (1) is limited by the feed plate (3) and by a shell (2). So that, during the operation of discharging coins, foreign bodies remaining in the coin-collecting space can be removed automatically, the shell (2) is mounted pivotably about an axis (18). During a pivoting movement, the formation of an exit gap for the foreign bodies occurs for initiating the pivoting movement there is an actuator (19) which is connected to the shell (2) via an elastic coupling element (24). <IMAGE>

Description

Die Erfindung betrifft eine Münzenvereinzelungsvorrichtung mit einem nach hinten geneigten, umlaufenden Förderteller, der im Bereich seines Randes mit Mitnehmern versehen ist, durch die während seines Umlaufs Münzen aus einem Münzensammelraum zu einer Austragschiene befördert werden, von der abgerundete Kanten aufweisende Fremdkörper abrutschen und in den Münzensammelraum zurückfallen können.The invention relates to a coin separating device with a rearward inclined, rotating conveyor plate, which is provided in the region of its edge with drivers, through which coins are conveyed from a coin collecting space to a discharge rail during its circulation, from which rounded foreign objects slip and slide into the coin collecting space can fall behind.

Bekannt sind Münzenvereinzelungsvorrichtungen der vorstehenden Art, bei denen der Münzensammelraum von einem Teil eines nach oben offenen Gehäuses gebildet wird, in das der Förderteller ragt. Das Gehäuse besteht dabei, wie dies beispielsweise in der DE 26 09 788 B2 offenbart ist, aus zwei fest miteinander verbundenen Teilen. Die Erfahrung lehrt, daß Münzenvereinzelungsvorrichtungen nicht nur Münzen, sondern auch Fremdkörper, und zwar in erster Linie Büroklammern und Papierschnitzel, daneben aber auch z.B. Schrauben und Muttern zugeführt werden. Diese Fremdkörper fallen bei geeigneter Ausbildung der Austragschiene regelmäßig in den Münzensammelraum zurück und müssen zur Vermeidung von Ausfällen der Vorrichtung von deren Benutzer in mehr oder weniger regelmäßigen Zeitabständen aus dem Münzensammelraum entfernt werden. Da beim Betrieb der Vorrichtung ein Abrieb der in den Münzensammelraum geschütteten Münzen unvermeidlich ist, lassen sich in der Praxis Verschmutzungen desjenigen, der die Fremdkörper aus dem Münzensammelraum entfernen muß, nicht vermeiden. Die Überwachung des Zustandes des Münzensammelraumes und dessen Reinigung stellen folglich Arbeiten dar, die nicht eben gern ausgeführt werden.Coin separating devices of the above type are known, in which the coin collecting space is formed by a part of an upwardly open housing into which the conveyor plate protrudes. The housing consists, as is disclosed, for example, in DE 26 09 788 B2, of two parts which are firmly connected to one another. Experience has shown that coin separating devices not only feed coins, but also foreign bodies, primarily paper clips and shredded paper, but also, for example, screws and nuts. With a suitable design of the discharge rail, these foreign bodies regularly fall back into the coin collecting space and have to be removed from the user of the device from the coin collecting space at more or less regular intervals in order to avoid failures of the device. Since, during operation of the device, an abrasion of the coins poured into the coin collecting space is inevitable, contamination of the person who has to remove the foreign bodies from the coin collecting space cannot be avoided in practice. Monitoring the condition of the coin collecting room and its cleaning therefore represents work that is not exactly enjoyed.

Beeinträchtigungen des Sortiervorganges von Münzen durch Fremdkörper sucht man bei einer anderen aus der JP 3-63795 A bekannten Münzenvereinzelungsvorrichtung dadurch zu eliminieren, daß man die Fremdkörper mit Hilfe eines Sensors aufspürt und anschließend mittels eines Ejektors aus dem Münzensammelbehälter herausschleudert. Es versteht sich, daß insbesondere der für diese Vorrichtung benötigte Sensor deren Herstellungskosten erhöht. Abgesehen hiervon kommt man auch bei dieser Vorrichtung um eine regelmäßige Reinigung des wiederum aus zwei fest miteinander verbundenen Teilen bestehenden Münzensammelraumes nicht herum.Impairment of the sorting process of coins by foreign bodies is sought in another coin separating device known from JP 3-63795 A by detecting the foreign bodies with the aid of a sensor and then throwing them out of the coin collecting container by means of an ejector. It is understood that in particular the sensor required for this device increases its manufacturing costs. Apart from this, this device does not avoid regular cleaning of the coin collecting space, which again consists of two firmly connected parts.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zugrunde, eine Münzenvereinzelungsvorrichtung der in Betracht gezogenen Art mit vergleichsweise einfachen Mitteln so auszugestalten, daß bei ihr die Notwendigkeit einer laufenden Überwachung des Münzensammelraumes und dessen Entleerung und Reinigung durch hierfür eigens bestelltes Personal entfällt. Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß dadurch gelöst, daß mindestens ein Teil des Münzensammelraumes nach Abschluß mindestens eines Vereinzelungsvorganges automatisch aus der Sammelstellung in eine Entleerungsstellung überführbar ist, in der im Münzensammelraum angesammelte Fremdkörper aus dem Münzensammelraum austreten können.The invention has for its object to design a coin separating device of the type under consideration with comparatively simple means so that it eliminates the need for continuous monitoring of the coin collecting space and its emptying and cleaning by specially appointed personnel. This object is achieved in that at least a part of the coin collecting space can be automatically transferred from the collecting position into an emptying position after completion of at least one separating operation, in which foreign bodies accumulated in the coin collecting space can emerge from the coin collecting space.

Die erfindungsgemäße Münzenvereinzelungsvorrichtung kann ohne Aufsicht betrieben werden. Mit der Minderung des Bedienungsaufwandes ist eine Steigerung des Bedienungskomforts gepaart. Aufgrund der Entbehrlichkeit von Aufsichts- und Wartunsgpersonal ermöglicht die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung den Bau von Münzensortier- und Münzenzählgeräten, die von Münzeneinlieferern selbst bedient werden können. Es versteht sich, daß insbesondere in Fällen der zuletzt genannten Art unterhalb des in Intervallen geöffneten Münzensammelraumes ein hinreichend großer Schmutz- bzw. Fremdkörpersammelbehälter vorgesehen sein muß, der seinerseits naturgemäß wiederum in gewissen, von seinem Auffangvolumen abhängenden Abständen geleert werden muß.The coin separating device according to the invention can be operated without supervision. With the reduction in operating effort, an increase in Ease of use paired. Due to the dispensability of supervisory and maintenance personnel, the device according to the invention enables the construction of coin sorting and coin counting devices which can be operated by coin suppliers themselves. It goes without saying that, in particular in cases of the last-mentioned type, a sufficiently large dirt or foreign body collecting container must be provided below the coin collecting space which is opened at intervals and which in turn must of course be emptied at certain intervals depending on its collecting volume.

Als besonders vorteilhaft erweist es sich, wenn der Münzensammelraum von einer oben offenen und an einer Seite durch den Förderteller geschlossenen Schale gebildet wird, die um einen im wesentlichen parallel zur Drehebene des Fördertellers verlaufende Achse unter Bildung eines Austrittsspaltes für die Fremdkörper aus der Sammelstellung in die Entleerungsstellung schwenkbar ist, und zwar durch den hin- und bewegbaren Stößel eines Stelltriebes, der an der der Schwenkachse gegenüberliegenden Seite der Schale angreift.It proves to be particularly advantageous if the coin collecting space is formed by a shell which is open at the top and closed on one side by the conveyor plate and which rotates around an axis which runs essentially parallel to the plane of rotation of the conveyor plate, forming an exit gap for the foreign bodies from the collecting position into the Emptying position is pivotable, namely by the reciprocating plunger of an actuator that engages the side of the bowl opposite the pivot axis.

Die Erfindung wird im folgenden anhand einer in der beigefügten Zeichnung vereinfacht dargestellten, besonders vorteilhaften Ausführungsform näher erläutert. Es zeigen:

  • Fig. 1 die Vorderansicht einer Münzenvereinzelungsvorrichtung,
  • Fig. 2 eine Draufsicht auf die Vorrichtung gemäß Fig. 1,
  • Fig. 3 eine Seitenansicht der Vorrichtung gemäß den Figuren 1 und 2 in Richtung des Pfeiles III in Fig. 1 betrachtet und
  • Fig. 4 einen Schnitt längs der Linie IV-IV in Fig. 2.
The invention is explained in more detail below on the basis of a particularly advantageous embodiment shown in simplified form in the accompanying drawing. Show it:
  • 1 is a front view of a coin separating device,
  • FIG. 2 shows a top view of the device according to FIG. 1,
  • Fig. 3 is a side view of the device according to Figures 1 and 2 viewed in the direction of arrow III in Fig. 1 and
  • 4 shows a section along the line IV-IV in FIG. 2.

In den Figuren ist 1 der von einer Schale 2 und einem Förderteller 3 begrenzte Münzensammelraum einer Münzenvereinzelungsvorrichtung. Der Förderteller 3 ist im Bereich seines Außenrandes mit Mitnehmern 4 versehen, die im unteren Teil des Münzensammelraumes Münzen 5 erfassen und im Zuge der Drehbewegung des Fördertellers 3 auf eine Austragschiene 6 überführen, die auf einem sich an einer Münzübergabestrecke 7 anschließenden Abschnitt mit einer Abgleitschräge 8 für Fremdkörper 9 versehen ist. Die Austragschiene 6 und eine die auf die Austragschiene 6 überführten Münzen 5 in der in Figur 1 dargestellten Lage haltende Stützwand 10 sind dergestalt leicht schräg zur Drehebene des Fördertellers 3 angeordnet, daß die Mitnehmer 4 ungehindert die Rückseite der Austragschiene 6 und der Stützwand 10 passieren können.In the figures, 1 is the coin collecting space of a coin separating device, delimited by a bowl 2 and a conveyor plate 3. The conveyor plate 3 is provided in the area of its outer edge with drivers 4, which capture coins 5 in the lower part of the coin collecting space and transfer them in the course of the rotary movement of the conveyor plate 3 to a discharge rail 6, which has a sliding slope 8 on a section adjoining a coin transfer path 7 is provided for foreign bodies 9. The discharge rail 6 and a support wall 10 holding the coins 5 transferred to the discharge rail 6 in the position shown in FIG. 1 are arranged slightly obliquely to the plane of rotation of the conveyor plate 3 in such a way that the drivers 4 can freely pass the rear of the discharge rail 6 and the support wall 10 .

Der dem Förderteller 3 zugewandte Rand der Schale 2 und ein sich hieran anschließender bogenförmiger Streifen bilden eine den Förderteller 3 auf nahezu auf seinem gesamten Umfang umschließende Führungswand 11, auf der die Münzen 5 abrollen können bzw. der ein Wegschleudern von Münzen 5 im oberen Bereich des Fördertellers 3 verhindert, wenn dieser von seinem Antriebsmotor 17 mit verhältnismäßig großer Drehzahl in Bewegung versetzt wird.The edge of the bowl 2 facing the conveyor plate 3 and an adjoining arcuate strip form a guide wall 11, which surrounds the conveyor plate 3 on almost its entire circumference, on which the coins 5 can roll or which cause coins 5 to be thrown away in the upper region of the Conveying plate 3 prevents if this from his Drive motor 17 is set in motion at a relatively high speed.

Ein Ausleger der Schale 2 ist über ein von elastischen Gummipuffern 14,15 gebildetes Scharnier mit einem in den Figuren durch eine Schraffur lediglich angedeutetes Traggerüst 16 verbunden, an dem auch der Motor 17 für den Förderteller 3 befestigt ist. Die Gummipuffer 14,15 sind längs- und biegeelastisch und bilden eine Schwenkachse 18, um die die Schale 2 begrenzte Schwenkbewegungen ausführen kann, die im unteren Bereich der Schale 2 zur Bildung eines Austrittsspaltes führen.A cantilever of the shell 2 is connected via a hinge formed by elastic rubber buffers 14, 15 to a support frame 16, which is only indicated by hatching in the figures, to which the motor 17 for the conveyor plate 3 is also fastened. The rubber buffers 14, 15 are longitudinally and flexurally elastic and form a pivot axis 18 about which the shell 2 can execute limited pivoting movements which lead to the formation of an exit gap in the lower region of the shell 2.

Zur Einleitung einer Schwenkbewegung in die Schale 2 um die Schwenkachse 18 dient ein allgemein mit 19 bezeichneter Stelltrieb, der um eine zur Schwenkachse 18 parallele Achse 20 schwenkbar auf dem Traggerüst 16 gelagert ist. Zum Stelltrieb 19 gehören ein Getriebemotor 21, ein Ritzel 22 und ein von einer mit dem Ritzel 22 kämmenden Zahnstange gebildeter Stößel 23, dessen der Schale 2 zugewandtes Ende über ein von einem weiteren Gummipuffer gebildetes elastisches Kupplungselement 24 mit der Schale verbunden ist.To initiate a pivoting movement into the shell 2 about the pivot axis 18, an actuating drive, generally designated 19, is used, which is pivotably mounted on the supporting frame 16 about an axis 20 parallel to the pivot axis 18. The actuator 19 includes a geared motor 21, a pinion 22 and a tappet 23 formed by a toothed rack meshing with the pinion 22, the end of which facing the shell 2 is connected to the shell via an elastic coupling element 24 formed by a further rubber buffer.

An seinem der Schale 2 abgewandten Ende weist der Stößel 23 einen Ausleger 25 auf, dessen Stirnfläche 26 einen Reflektor für zwei Sensoren 27,28 bildet, die die Endpositionen des Stößels 23 des Stelltriebes 19 überwachen. In den Figuren ist jeweils die Sammelstellung der Schale 2 dargestellt. Um die Schale nach einem abgeschlossenen Vereinzelungsvorgang unter Bildung eines Austrittsspaltes für eventuelle in ihr angesammelte Fremdkörper in eine Entleerungsstellung zu überführen, muß durch den Stößel 23 in Figur 2 betrachtet eine Schwenkbewegung im Uhrzeigersinn um die Schwenkachse 18 eingeleitet werden. Diese Schwenkbewegung wird in der Praxis durch einen Steuerzyklus ausgelöst, der durch den Benutzer der Vorrichtung mit deren Inbetriebnahme eingeleitet wird.At its end facing away from the shell 2, the plunger 23 has a cantilever 25, the end face 26 of which forms a reflector for two sensors 27, 28, which monitor the end positions of the plunger 23 of the actuator 19. The collection position of the shell 2 is shown in the figures. To the shell after a completed separation process, forming an exit gap for any in it In order to transfer accumulated foreign bodies into an emptying position, a pivotal movement in a clockwise direction around the pivot axis 18 must be initiated by the plunger 23 in FIG. 2. In practice, this pivoting movement is triggered by a control cycle which is initiated by the user of the device when it is started up.

Aufgrund der durch die Gummipuffer 14,15 und das Kupplungselement 24 bedingten elastischen Aufhängung der Schale 2 ist es möglich, in die Schale 2 eine einem Festklemmen von Münzen 5 entgegenwirkende Rüttelbewegung einzuleiten. Zu diesem Zweck ist an der Rückseite des Fördertellers 3 ein als Rolle ausgebildeter Nocken 29 angeordnet, der bei jeder Umdrehung des Fördertellers 3 auf eine an der Schale 2 angeordnete Rampe 30 aufläuft und die Schale unter Dehnung der Gummipuffer 14,15 und des Kupplungselementes 24 um einen geringen Betrag verlagert, ohne daß es dabei zur Bildung eines Austrittsspaltes kommt.Due to the elastic suspension of the shell 2 caused by the rubber buffers 14, 15 and the coupling element 24, it is possible to initiate a shaking movement counteracting the clamping of coins 5 in the shell 2. For this purpose, a cam 29 designed as a roller is arranged on the rear of the conveyor plate 3, which runs with each rotation of the conveyor plate 3 onto a ramp 30 arranged on the shell 2 and the shell by stretching the rubber buffers 14, 15 and the coupling element 24 relocated a small amount without forming an exit gap.

31 ist ein Schmutz- und Fremdkörpersammelbehälter, in den in der Entleerungsstellung der Schale 2 nach Abschluß eines Vereinzelungsvorganges die jeweils in der Schale 2 verbleibenden Fremdkörper 9 fallen können und dessen Größe den jeweiligen Gegebenheiten angepaßt werden kann.31 is a dirt and foreign body collecting container into which, in the emptying position of the bowl 2 after the completion of a separation process, the foreign bodies 9 remaining in the bowl 2 can fall and the size of which can be adapted to the particular circumstances.
