Definitions

  • the invention relates to a coin device according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • One of the more common ways to manipulate coin machines is to roll a real coin through a relatively thin thread through the coin validator. Since a real coin is used and the chronological sequence corresponds to that of the real coins, the coin is recognized as genuine by the sensors carrying out the authenticity check and is automatically fed to the acceptance area. This is controlled by a so-called acceptance switch, which causes real coins to go to an acceptance channel and spurious be directed into a return channel. Usually, a presence sensor is provided in the direction of travel behind the acceptance gate, which generates a credit signal so that the desired goods or services are granted. However, since the coin hangs on a thread, it does not get into the cash register.
  • the solution according to claim 1 takes advantage of the fact that usually an acceptance switch is provided in the form of a flap that either directs an incoming coin into a return or an acceptance channel. It is normally biased into the blocking position by a spring and is pivoted into the acceptance position by means of an electromagnet when a real signal is received from the test unit. As soon as the coin has passed the acceptance gate, it is returned to the locked position. This can be done using a presence sensor below the acceptance gate, which is also common for generating a credit signal.
  • a thread with a coin attached automatically leads to a more or less strong jamming of the thread between the acceptance gate and the associated coin wall in the turnout blocking position, so that the falling coin is more or less slowed down.
  • the contact surface of the acceptance flap and the channel wall can be designed to be adhesive, for example by appropriate roughening or by selecting a suitable material with high static friction.
  • the acceptance flap can have at least one lateral projection which engages in a recess in the wall.
  • the acceptance flap can also be provided with a toothing in the contact area, which interacts with a corresponding toothing of the wall.
  • a time window of approximately 60 to 80 ms results.
  • the thread can be stopped so that the coin passes a presence sensor, but gets caught between the two or initiates the second one continuously.
  • the described delay occurs and times of> 100 ms result.
  • An additional sensor can be assigned to the flap, which detects a misaligned valve. If the thread is thicker, the flap will not return fully to its original position. This sensor detects the damper misalignment and emits a corresponding signal, which further increases safety.
  • the presence of a thread is determined indirectly in which a transit time measurement is carried out.
  • a thread is directly sensed optically.
  • a thread is negligible in relation to the width of a coin channel with regard to its shading effect in an optical measuring section. It is also not possible to restrict the light barrier to a narrow area of the coin channel, since the thread can also be loose and its position is therefore unknown.
  • the invention provides an optical channel through interacting recesses is formed by a flap and the associated wall against which the flap rests in one position, namely in its locked position. In the open position, it allows the coin to pass freely.
  • the flap described as a separate part in the coin device can, for example, be arranged in the coin spout's slot. It is then operated directly by the coin, for example.
  • the advantage is that a coin is recognized early on by the thread and falls directly into the return without reaching the acceptance area.
  • the flap is formed by the acceptance switch which is necessary per se.
  • one embodiment of the invention therefore provides that an attachment is attached to the flap, which engages in an opening or a recess in the channel wall when the flap lies against the channel wall or is at a slight distance therefrom and Approach is provided with an opening that is aligned with the optical channel. The approach covers the receiver of the optical path even with the flap slightly open, so that the amount of light received is reduced.
  • FIG. 1 shows a sorting device 10 which has two parallel plates 12, 14 and a third plate 16 adjoining the plate 14, between which plates flaps 18, 20, 22, 24, 28 are pivotally mounted. It can be swiveled around an axis perpendicular to the plane of the drawing.
  • the flaps 18 to 28 are actuated by electromagnets, only one of which is shown at 27, for actuating the class 18.
  • the magnetic tappet is biased by a spring 29.
  • the flaps 24 and 28 are adjustable by a single magnet.
  • the flaps 18 to 28 are shown in the rest position or in a position in which the electromagnets are de-energized, and therefore do not absorb any current.
  • the flap 18, which serves as an acceptance gate rests with its upper end against a stop 30 of the plate 14.
  • the flap 20 bears against a stop member 32 on the plate 12, while the Flap 22 abuts a stop member 34 between the plates 14, 16.
  • the flap 24 bears against a stop component 36 and the flap 28 against a stop component 40.
  • the electromagnets or the flaps therefore expediently have a spring which bias the flaps 18 to 28 into the rest position shown.
  • the first level representing the acceptance level
  • the flap 18 in the rest position directs coins falling in the direction of arrow 42 to a coin track 44, on which they roll into a return.
  • the flaps 20, 22 form the second level, their axes being at the same height and thus the same timing control can be used.
  • Light barriers A and B are assigned to the second and third levels.
  • the light barrier A consists of an optical transmitter element 44 and a receiving element 46.
  • the light barrier B is constructed analogously.
  • the flap 20 has a recess 50 at the upper end and the longer flap 22 has an opening 52, so that light from the transmitter element 44 is unhindered Receiving element 46 can arrive. It can therefore detect the position of a coin in the area of the flaps 20, 22.
  • the flaps 24, 28 have openings 54, 56, the stop members 36, 40 also being provided with corresponding openings 58.
  • the position of a coin in the area of the flaps 24, 28 can therefore also be detected in the third level.
  • five outlets 62, 64, 68, 70 and 72 are provided, which are aligned with acceptance shafts, not shown. A coin entering in the direction of arrow 42 can therefore be directed to one of the outlet openings 62 to 72 depending on its value and the position of the flaps 20 to 28.
  • the flaps 20, 22 are only activated alternatively, depending on the value signal for the coin tested.
  • This value signal is generated in a coin validator which is arranged above the sorting device 10 (not shown).
  • the flaps 18 to 28 are switched on in a staggered manner. (If the staggered switching on of the flaps also has advantages for the energy balance in battery operation and also increases the sorting speed, staggered actuation is not absolutely necessary.
  • the complete coin path can also be freely designed A period of, for example, 10 ms elapses from the actuation of the flap 18 to the actuation of the flap 22 or 20. A total of 50 ms elapses before the flaps 24, 28 are actuated.
  • the insertion or removal of a coin into and out of the light barriers A and B therefore leads to a corresponding actuation of pulses for the actuation of the magnets for the flaps above.
  • the magnet for the flap 18 is de-energized by the light barrier A.
  • the magnet for the flap 20 or 22 is de-energized when the coin is immersed in the light barrier B.
  • the flaps 18, 20, 22 therefore remain in the operating position for as long and their magnets are only energized as long as is absolutely necessary for the operation of the sorting device.
  • the return of the flap to the rest position can therefore already begin when the coin is still partially in the area of the associated flap.
  • the pulse of light barrier B can also be used to generate a credit signal.
  • the order of the pulses of light barriers A and B can be registered. If the sequence is not as intended, this is an indication that a coin should be retrieved using a thread. A correspondingly generated delete signal then serves to eliminate the credit signal so that a sales transaction or the like does not take place.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 now indicate how the Thread in the area of the flap 18 is affected.
  • the flap 18a is provided at the upper end with a contact surface 80 which is formed with an opposite contact surface 82 at the stop 30, with the aid of a thin plate 84 which is roughened relatively strongly. If there is now a thread 86 between the surfaces 80, 82, the thread is pressed under a predetermined force which corresponds to the restoring force for the flap 18. As a result, the thread 86 is inhibited. Braking takes place with relatively heavy coins, but the coin is moved further down. In the case of lighter coins, this may also be stopped in positions as shown in FIG. 1.
  • the evaluation and control device also measures the time it takes for a coin to pass light barriers A and B. An inhibited coin will naturally take a longer time. Therefore, if a predetermined time is exceeded, the mentioned will again Signal triggered to initiate the presence of a coin on a thread.
  • the flap 18b has two teeth 88, 89 corresponding to the flap 18 according to FIG. 1, which engage in corresponding recesses 90, 91 of the stop 30.
  • a thread 86 is therefore deflected several times. The result is a similar effect to that of the embodiment according to FIG. 2. The thread is again inhibited when the coin comes to a standstill or moves more slowly.
  • FIG. 4 shows a coin channel 100 which is delimited by side walls 102 and 104 and by a further wall 106 and a wall which cannot be seen in FIG. 4 and runs parallel to wall 106.
  • a flap 108 is rotatably supported at 110 through wall 100 and the opposite wall. It extends to the wall 102 in the position shown in FIG. 4 and, with a lateral extension 112, projects into a recess or a slot 114 in the wall 102.
  • the remaining part of the flap 108 ends in the center of a circular hole 116 in the shoulder 112. It is provided with a recess which is semicircular in cross section and extends across the width of the flap 108.
  • the recess which is circular in cross section interacts with a recess which is semicircular in cross section Recess of the wall 102 so that an optical channel 120 with a circular cross section is formed (see also FIG. 5).
  • the cross section of the optical channel can also be designed differently, for example can have a rectangular shape.
  • the optical channel 120 forms a passage for the light from a light source 122.
  • a photoelectric receiver 124 is arranged at the other end. If a coin is now hung on a thread 126 and the coin, which is indicated at 128 in FIG. 4, has passed through the flap 108, the flap 108 is returned to the position shown in FIG. 4 by a control system which is not to be explained further .
  • the flap 108 can act as a so-called acceptance gate, which pivots to the right in the event of a good signal in order to clear the passage for a coin.
  • the switch 108 In Fig. 4 the switch 108 is in the blocking position and directs incoming coins into a return channel. If the switch 108 returns to the position shown in FIG. 4 after passage of a real coin, a thread 126, which hangs more or less loosely in the channel 108, is pressed against the wall 102. As a result, the thread enters the optical channel, extending through its center. The thread 126 therefore leads to a corresponding shading of the light path, which can be easily detected in order to emit a thread signal.
  • the attachment 112 or the flag ensures that nevertheless not too much light falls on the receiver 124 hits. In this case too, the presence of a thread can be signaled.
  • appropriate drainage means for example a fleece, can be fitted in the flap and on the stop, as a result of which the liquid is kept away from the optical channel.
