Definitions
- the invention relates to a money changer for coin machines for the transition from a national to the euro currency after Claim 1.
- Money changers are used in many vending machines and other machines. They usually have a number of coin tubes in which the Coins are stacked. The feeding takes place with the help of a sorting device, which are accepted as genuine by a coin acceptor Directs coins into the corresponding tubes. A payout device pays Coins from the tubes according to the overpaid price.
- the function of the changer is monitored by a microprocessor usually also the other controls and monitoring of the functions the coin acceptor takes over. In the microprocessor z. B. the reference values with which the coin signals of the coin validator are compared are used to determine whether a coin inserted is genuine or not.
- the invention is based on the object a money changer for coin machines for the transition from a national to the euro currency specify that enables the operator to prepare in a preparatory time to carry out all necessary renovation work before the cut-off date, January 1, 2002, so that the money changer has its full function from the key date can perceive without the effort for the actual change from the national to the euro currency is particularly high.
- a money changer for coin machines for the transition from a national to the euro currency specify that enables the operator to prepare in a preparatory time to carry out all necessary renovation work before the cut-off date, January 1, 2002, so that the money changer has its full function from the key date can perceive without the effort for the actual change from the national to the euro currency is particularly high.
- Conversion measures by operators in the event of failure to let In particular will be sought, in addition to the renovation work in the preparation period Conversion measures by operators in the event of failure to let.
- the changer according to the invention can be designed so that Microprocessor includes either two currency blocks, namely one for the national currency and one for the euro, or a controllable one Area in which it is determined which is the base currency, in which then the other currency has to be converted.
- the latter applies to such money changers where only one channel compilation for the national currency and the euro currency is provided.
- Each block is with a number equipped by channels, sufficient national and national coins Rate euro currency.
- the DM block z. B. not only contains channels for all DM coins 0.10, 0.50, 1.00, 2.00 and 5.00 DM, but also for all planned euro coins, namely 0.05, 0.10, 0.20, 0.50, 1.00 and 2.00 E. Otherwise, only half of the channels are available, i.e. H.
- each only one for a national or euro coin In any case, are reference values to be saved for the evaluation of all described coins, d. H. the The money changer is theoretically able to change all the coins in the money changer be thrown in, using only one rating scale at a time is permitted for the coins, d. H. either the national or the euro currency as the base currency comes into question, therefore a conversion on the base currency.
- the price block also set the prices in euro currency. Furthermore there is a Allocation of the coin tubes to the euro coins. Eventually, at least two tubes of a three or four tube changer for the Acceptance of euro coins, especially low-value euro coins, installed or set. In some currencies, it is possible to use coin tubes the national currency to be used directly for euro coins. This is e.g. B. the case for tubes for DM coins. In other currencies there was only partial agreement. The coin tubes are then rebuilt or installed so that on the one hand the adoption of national Coins are possible including spending change in this Currency, on the other hand, the acceptance of euro coins, whereby before 1.1.2002 Euro coins should not yet be available.
- the one according to the invention therefore works Money changer in the usual way and gives change in national Currency out, however, is for acceptance, evaluation, sorting and issuing already prepared by euro coins.
- the money changer according to the invention must therefore are already available for accepting euro coins. This however, does not necessarily mean that a money changer at that time also has a currency exchange function.
- the invention provides that the money exchange function at any time after the conversion date is maintained.
- a tube paid for in the national currency will become empty after the vacancy automatically filled with the appropriate euro coin.
- the empty reported tube is at any time after the Key date automatically filled with the specified euro coins. This has the advantage that under certain circumstances coin jams in the payout mechanism can be avoided with mixed filling.
- the changer therefore continues to work with a change function, whereby initially - as long as the national coins are still stored - on change is paid out in either the base of the national currency In the form of national or - if the former no longer exists - euro coins.
- Switching to euro-based causes all functions the changer, d. H. Display, including prices, Evaluation of the coins inserted, change, etc. only takes place on a euro basis.
- This switchover takes place either automatically or manually and can be done if a coin tube for the lowest value national coin has a predetermined minimum level or is empty or the tube of for the lowest value euro coins national coins is emptied. Manual switching is then required when the machine setting and money exchange setting on each other must be turned off. Prices are a matter of the machine and money changer must be turned off.
- Tube counter can be a preset level in a coin tube as Use the trigger or the empty signal for the coin tube.
- the coin tubes have a vacancy sensor that emits a signal when there are no more coins in the tube. This signal can also be used automatic switchover.
- the switching time depends on which one Scope of money changers used after the cut-off date. It is conceivable that on the cut-off date, the time of switching to the euro base, the coin tube for the lowest value national coin is already empty, see above that the switch is initiated via the empty sensor, for example. Instead of this Signal can also be used the signal of the tube in which the lowest value euro coin is to be saved. Is this from national coins empty, automatic switching can also be initiated become. However, it is also conceivable to switch over to the euro to be carried out only when all coin tubes for the acceptance of national Coins are empty. In this case, the changer according to the invention retains also its changing function, but increasingly with euro coins Change must be paid out, the fewer national coin tubes Coins included. However, the euro coins are in the national currency to be converted as long as a changeover on a euro basis has not yet taken place Has.
- the changer according to the invention has the great advantage that for the changer a smooth transition from the national to the euro currency and the money changer never functions as a money changer must set.
- the only specialty for the customer of vending machines is that during the transition period before the changeover time but can receive change in euros after the cut-off date is converted to national currency and after the changeover time national coins converted into euro currency, as far as in the coin tubes available. If this should be considered a disadvantage at all , it would be regarded as much less than the temporary blocking any money exchange function.
- the changeover time can be caused by the vacancy of all Coin tubes are established for national coins or by a given one Level in the tubes. Therefore, the changeover time is timed not clearly definable.
- euro coins can be used as far as available, sorted into the corresponding tubes.
- the euro coins can be counted with a separate tube counter and their number in Microprocessor can be saved. Can on a second tube counter however, be waived if old and new currencies depend on Exchange rate have approximately the same currency values.
