Description

La présente invention concerne un monnayeur à jeton ou pièce de monnaie du type comprenant un boítier muni d'une fente d'introduction d'un jeton ou d'une pièce de monnaie, ledit boítier contenant un mécanisme coopérant avec ledit jeton ou ladite pièce au cours de son introduction à travers ladite fente et pour emprisonner ledit jeton ou ladite pièce à la fin de ladite introduction en obturant ladite fente d'introduction, ledit boítier contenant des moyens commandés d'éjection dudit jeton ou de ladite pièce.The present invention relates to a coin token or coin coin of the type comprising a case provided with a slot introduction of a token or a coin, said case containing a mechanism cooperating with said token or said piece during its introduction through said slot and to trap said token or said coin at the end of said introduction by closing said slot introduction, said housing containing controlled means ejecting said token or said coin.

Les monnayeurs de ce type, qui peuvent être utilisés par exemple dans le cadre d'attractions foraines, présentent divers inconvénients.Coin acceptors of this type, which can be used by example in the context of fairground attractions, present various disadvantages.

En premier lieu, ils ne permettent généralement pas une éjection commandée à distance et, le cas échéant, simultanément sur plusieurs monnayeurs. En outre, ils ne permettent en général pas une utilisation pour des jetons ou des pièces de divers diamètres. First, they generally do not allow remotely controlled ejection and, where applicable, simultaneously on several coin acceptors. In addition, they do not generally not allow use for tokens or pieces of various diameters.

De plus, ils sont de construction compliquée et onéreuse et présentent une fragilité et une usure élevées, ni aucune protection efficace contre la fraude, ni de contrôle évident du règlement.In addition, they are of complicated and expensive construction and exhibits high brittleness and wear, and none effective protection against fraud, no obvious control of the regulations.

La présente invention a pour but de pallier ces inconvénients des monnayeurs connus.The present invention aims to overcome these drawbacks known mints.

A cet effet, le monnayeur selon l'invention est caractérisé par le fait que ledit mécanisme comprend un levier pivotant autour d'un axe parallèle à la fente d'introduction et muni, à une extrémité, d'une saillie agencée pour obturer ladite fente d'introduction dans au moins une position angulaire dudit levier, ledit levier étant soumis à l'action d'un ressort de rappel comportant une extrémité libre qui interfère avec la trajectoire du jeton ou de la pièce à l'intérieur du mécanisme de manière à faire pivoter le ressort dans le sens d'obturation de la fente d'introduction, les moyens commandés d'éjection comprenant un électro-aimant dont le noyau est disposé dans l'axe de ladite fente d'introduction et est rappelé en position sortie par un ressort de rappel, ledit noyau étant prolongé par une saillie tel qu'une lame coopérant, en position sortie, avec le ressort de rappel du levier pivotant, le jeton ou la pièce étant en outre soumis à l'action de moyens élastiques de guidage disposés à l'intérieur du boítier au voisinage et de part et d'autre de ladite fente d'introduction.To this end, the coin mechanism according to the invention is characterized by the fact that said mechanism comprises a pivoting lever about an axis parallel to the insertion slot and provided, at one end, a projection arranged to close off said insertion slot in at least one angular position of said lever, said lever being subjected to the action of a return spring with a free end which interferes with the trajectory of the token or coin inside the mechanism so as to rotate the spring in the direction of closure of the insertion slot, the controlled ejection means comprising an electromagnet the core of which is arranged in the axis of said slot introduction and is recalled to the extended position by a return spring, said core being extended by a projection such as a blade cooperating, in the extended position, with the return spring for swivel lever, token or coin being further subjected to the action of elastic means of guide arranged inside the housing in the vicinity and on either side of said introduction slot.

Dans le monnayeur selon l'invention, le jeton ou la pièce agit sur le ressort de rappel du levier pivotant et non pas sur le levier lui-même, ce qui limite l'usure du mécanisme et des jetons ou pièces. Le jeton ou pièce agit en outre directement sur le noyau plongeur d'un électro-aimant de maintien du jeton ou de la pièce dans le boítier et dont l'effacement provoque de manière simple et efficace la libération du jeton ou de la pièce et sa retombée dans un panier du monnayeur. In the coin mechanism according to the invention, the token or the coin acts on the return spring of the pivoting lever and not on the lever itself, which limits the wear of the mechanism and tokens or coins. The token or coin also acts directly on the plunger core of an electromagnet holding the token or coin in the case and of which erasure simply and effectively causes the releasing the token or coin and dropping it back into a coin-operated basket.

L'invention sera bien comprise à la lecture de la description suivant d'un exemple de réalisation en référence au dessin annexé dans lequel :

  • la figure 1 est une vue schématique en plan du monnayeur et
  • les figures 2 à 5 sont des vues schématiques, en coupe orthogonale au plan de la figure 1, illustrant les phases successives de fonctionnement du monnayeur
    • The invention will be clearly understood on reading the following description of an exemplary embodiment with reference to the appended drawing in which:
  • FIG. 1 is a schematic plan view of the coin mechanism and
  • Figures 2 to 5 are schematic views, in section orthogonal to the plane of Figure 1, illustrating the successive phases of operation of the coin mechanism

    • Le monnayeur comprend un boítier 1 muni d'une fente 2 d'introduction d'un jeton 16 ou d'une pièce de monnaie.The coin mechanism includes a case 1 provided with a slot 2 introduction of a token 16 or a coin.

    Dans le boítier 1 est disposé un levier 4, monté à pivotement autour d'un axe 5 parallèle à la fente 2. Le levier 4 comporte une extrémité coudée formant une saillie 6 qui est agencée pour venir obturer la fente 2 sous l'action d'un ressort de rappel 7 dont une extrémité libre 8 tend élastiquement à venir dans l'axe de la fente 2.In the housing 1 is arranged a lever 4, pivotally mounted around an axis 5 parallel to the slot 2. The lever 4 has a bent end forming a projection 6 which is arranged to seal the slot 2 under the action of a return spring 7 of which a free end 8 tends resiliently coming in the axis of the slot 2.

    Dans le boítier 1, au voisinage et de part et d'autre de la fente 2, sont disposés des billes 9, guidées par des fentes 10 et rappelées l'une vers l'autre par des ressorts 11.In box 1, in the vicinity and on either side of the slot 2, are arranged balls 9, guided by slots 10 and returned to each other by springs 11.

    Dans le boítier 1 est également logé un électro-aimant 12 dont le noyau plongeur 13, prolongé par une lame 14, est coaxial à la fente 2, la lame 14 étant parallèle à cette fente 2. Le noyau plongeur 13 est rappelé en saillie de l'électro-aimant 12 par des ressorts 15.In the housing 1 is also housed an electromagnet 12 whose plunger core 13, extended by a blade 14, is coaxial with the slot 2, the blade 14 being parallel to this slot 2. The plunger core 13 is recalled projecting from the electromagnet 12 by springs 15.

    Le fonctionnement du monnayeur est le suivant.The operation of the coin mechanism is as follows.

    En position de repos (figures 1 et 2), le noyau plongeur 13 de l'électro-aimant 12 est sorti au maximum, sous l'action des ressorts 15, de telle sorte que la lame 14 est logée sous l'extrémité libre 8 du ressort 7 de rappel du levier 4. Le levier 4 est ainsi empêché de basculer, sous l'action du ressort 7, et sa saillie 6 est écartée de la fente 2 du boítier 1.In the rest position (Figures 1 and 2), the plunger core 13 of the solenoid 12 is pulled out to the maximum, under the action springs 15, so that the blade 14 is housed under the free end 8 of the lever return spring 7 4. The lever 4 is thus prevented from tilting, under the action of spring 7, and its projection 6 is spaced from the slot 2 of the case 1.

    Lorsqu'on introduit alors un jeton 16 à travers la fente 2 (figure 3), le bord périphérique du jeton 16 vient buter contre l'extrémité adjacente de la lame 14, qui est repoussée avec le noyau 13 de l'électro-aimant 12, contre l'action des ressorts 15. Au cours de cet enfoncement du jeton 16, l'extrémité libre 8 du ressort 7 passe de la lame 14 au jeton 16 et glisse sur celui-ci jusqu'à ce que le jeton 16 soit complètement enfoncé à travers la fente 2. Dans cette position (figure 4), le ressort 7 peut agir pour faire basculer le levier 4 du fait que la saillie 6 peut échapper au jeton 16. Cette saillie 6 vient alors obturer la fente 2, de sorte que le jeton 16 n'est plus accessible depuis l'extérieur.When a token 16 is then introduced through the slot 2 (Figure 3), the peripheral edge of the token 16 abuts against the adjacent end of the blade 14, which is pushed back with the core 13 of the electromagnet 12, against the action of springs 15. During this depression of the token 16, the free end 8 of the spring 7 passes from the blade 14 to the token 16 and slides on it until the token 16 is fully inserted through slot 2. In this position (figure 4), the spring 7 can act to make tilt the lever 4 because the projection 6 can escape to the token 16. This projection 6 then closes the slot 2, so that token 16 is no longer accessible from outside.

    Au cours de l'enfoncement du jeton 16, les billes de guidage 9 se sont écartées du jeton 16 puis, après passage du diamètre du jeton 16, se sont rapprochées en restant en contact avec la périphérie du jeton 16 sous l'action des ressorts 11.During the insertion of the token 16, the guide balls 9 have moved away from token 16 then, after passing the diameter of the token 16, got closer while remaining in contact with the periphery of the token 16 under the action of springs 11.

    A la fin de l'utilisation de l'appareil, tel qu'une voiture d'un parc d'attractions, auquel est fixé le monnayeur qui en commande le fonctionnement, l'électro-aimant 12 est alimenté et le noyau plongeur 13 est complètement attiré à l'intérieur de l'électro-aimant (figure 5), contre l'action des ressorts 15. La lame 14 libère le jeton 16 qui, repoussé par les billes 9 sous l'action des ressorts 11 est poussé par l'extrémité libre 8 du ressort 7, tombe dans un bac (non représenté) du monnayeur.After using the device, such as a car an amusement park, to which is attached the coin mechanism which controls the operation, the electromagnet 12 is supplied and the plunger 13 is completely drawn inside of the electromagnet (figure 5), against the action of the springs 15. The blade 14 releases the token 16 which, repelled by the balls 9 under the action of springs 11 is pushed by the free end 8 of the spring 7, falls into a container (not depicted) of the coin mechanism.

    Dès que l'électro-aimant 12 cesse d'être alimenté, l'ensemble revient à la positon de repos des figures 1 et 2, prêt à recevoir un nouveau jeton. As soon as the electromagnet 12 stops being supplied, the assembly returns to the rest position of Figures 1 and 2, ready to receive a new token.

    Le monnayeur qui vient d'être décrit est facilement adaptable à des dimensions de jetons différentes en remplaçant une plaque portant la fente 2 par une plaque portant une fente adaptée au nouveau jeton et en modifiant la position de l'électro-aimant 12 à l'intérieur du boítier 1.The coin mechanism which has just been described is easily adaptable to different token dimensions by replacing a plate carrying the slot 2 by a plate carrying the slot adapted to the new token and by changing the position of the electromagnet 12 inside the housing 1.

    Dans l'exemple décrit, le jeton 16 comporte une rainure 17 dans sa tranche, avec laquelle coopère le bord de la lame 14.In the example described, the token 16 has a groove 17 in its edge, with which the edge of the blade 14 cooperates.

    Dans le cas d'un jeton à bord lisse ou d'une pièce de monnaie, il est possible de prévoir à l'extrémité de la lame 14 une lèvre (non représentée) destinée à coopérer, positivement avec le bord de la pièce ou du jeton.In the case of a smooth-edge token or a coin change, it is possible to provide at the end of the blade 14 a lip (not shown) intended to cooperate, positively with the edge of the coin or token.

    On peut également prévoir, à titre de sécurité, un palpeur (non représenté), en particulier un bistable, de contrôle de la présence d'un jeton ou d'une pièce.One can also provide, for safety, a probe (not shown), in particular a bistable, for controlling the presence of a token or coin.

    Il est également possible de disposer dans le boítier 1 un détecteur (non représenté) déclenchant, en cas de tentative de fraude ou de non-fonctionnement, une alarme traduite par exemple par une modification, telle qu'un clignotement ou un changement de couleur, d'un éclairage intégré.It is also possible to have in case 1 a detector (not shown) triggering, in the event of an attempt fraud or non-functioning, an alarm translated by example by a modification, such as a blinking or a color change, integrated lighting.

    On peut encore prévoir un ressort 18 (figure 2) agissant sur le levier 4 et participant à l'éjection du jeton.We can also provide a spring 18 (Figure 2) acting on lever 4 and participating in the ejection of the token.
