Description

Die Erfindung bezieht sich auf eine Vorrichtung zum Separieren von Fremdkörpern aus einem Münzgemisch gemäß dem Oberbegriff des Patentanspruchs 1.The invention relates to a device for separating foreign bodies from a coin mixture according to the preamble of patent claim 1.

Aus der DE 696 22 263 T2 ist eine Vorrichtung und ein Verfahren zum Trennen von fremden Gegenständen aus einer Münzmenge bekannt. Die Vorrichtung umfasst eine Münzsortiereinrichtung, die zwischen einem Münzeinlass und einer Münzhebevorrichtung angeordnet ist. Die Münzsortiereinrichtung wird durch eine perforierte Trommel, die drehbar um ihre Längsachse angeordnet ist, gebildet. Die Trommel ist an ihren Enden offen. An dem einen Ende ist der Münzeinlass und an dem anderen Ende die Münzhebevorrichtung angeordnet. Während des Transports der Gegenstände durch die Trommel sollen Fremdkörper durch die Perforation der Trommel austreten. Von Nachteil ist jedoch dabei, dass eine Vielzahl der auszusortierenden Gegenstände wie Büroklammern und Schlüssel sich in der Trommel verhaken, so dass diese regelmäßig ausgebaut und gereinigt werden muss.From the DE 696 22 263 T2 For example, an apparatus and method for separating foreign objects from a coin amount is known. The apparatus comprises a coin sorter arranged between a coin inlet and a coin elevator. The coin sorter is formed by a perforated drum rotatably disposed about its longitudinal axis. The drum is open at the ends. At one end, the coin inlet and at the other end of the Münzhebevorrichtung is arranged. During transport of the objects through the drum, foreign objects should exit through the perforation of the drum. The disadvantage, however, is that a large number of items to be sorted out, such as paper clips and keys, get caught in the drum so that it has to be regularly removed and cleaned.

Des Weiteren ist aus der DE 197 09 515 C1 eine Vorrichtung zum Sortieren von Münzen und scheibenförmigen Gegenständen bekannt. In Verbindung mit einer Vorrichtung zur Verarbeitung d. h. zum Zählen und/oder Sortieren von Münzen oder scheibenförmigen Gegenständen, wobei die Münzen über eine Münzschale einem Münzteller zugeführt werden, der die Münzen einzeln, nacheinander an einer Zähl- und/oder Sortierstrecke abgibt, wird vorgeschlagen, dass zur Aussonderung störender und unbrauchbarer Fremdkörper zwischen der Münzschale und einem Münzteller eine Kombination aus einem Schrägförderband, einem Abstreifer, insbesondere einer Abstreifwalze und eine Rutsche vorgesehen ist. Mit der Förderstrecke sollen störende Fremdkörper und Fremdstoffe separiert werden, so dass gewährleistet wird, dass der nachfolgende Zähl- und Sortiervorgang nicht gestört wird. Die Förderstrecke wird als Rutsche ausgebildet. Bauartbedingt bedarf es zum einen einer entsprechenden Bauhöhe und zum anderen ist die Transportgeschwindigkeit auf der Rutsche nicht einstellbar, so dass die Transportgeschwindigkeiten der Münzen bzw. der Fremdkörper nicht beeinflusst werden kann. Die Rutsche umfasst V-förmige Rinnen, in deren Seitenwänden Durchbrüche angeordnet sind, so dass z. B. Büroklammern oder Schlüssel oder etc. sich in den Durchbrüchen festsetzen können mit der Folge von Störung so, dass die Förderstrecke gereinigt werden muss.Furthermore, from the DE 197 09 515 C1 a device for sorting coins and disc-shaped objects known. In connection with a device for processing ie for counting and / or sorting coins or disc-shaped objects, wherein the coins are fed via a coin tray to a coin plate, the coins individually, one after the other emits at a counting and / or sorting line, it is proposed that for the separation of disturbing and unusable foreign body between the coin shell and a coin plate, a combination of an inclined conveyor belt, a scraper, in particular a stripping roller and a chute is provided. With the conveyor line disturbing foreign bodies and foreign substances are to be separated so that it is ensured that the subsequent counting and sorting process is not disturbed. The conveyor line is designed as a chute. Due to the design, on the one hand a corresponding height is required and, on the other hand, the transport speed on the chute is not adjustable, so that the transport speeds of the coins or foreign bodies can not be influenced. The chute comprises V-shaped grooves, in the side walls openings are arranged, so that z. As paper clips or keys or etc. can settle in the breakthroughs with the result of disruption so that the conveyor line must be cleaned.

Der Erfindung liegt die Aufgabe zu Grunde, eine gattungsbildende Vorrichtung derart weiterzugestalten, dass diese ein geringes Bauvolumen aufweist und störende Fremdkörper und Fremdstoffe zu einem hohen Maß separiert.The invention is based on the object of further developing a generic device in such a way that it has a low construction volume and separates disturbing foreign bodies and foreign substances to a high degree.

Diese Aufgabe wird erfindungsgemäß durch die kennzeichnenden Merkmale des Patentanspruchs 1 gelöst.This object is achieved by the characterizing features of claim 1.

Eine vorteilhafte Ausgestaltung und eine Weiterbildung der erfindungsgemäßen Vorrichtung ist den Unteransprüchen entnehmbar.An advantageous embodiment and a development of the device according to the invention can be taken from the subclaims.

Die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung weist den Vorteil auf, dass insbesondere durch den Einsatz nur einer weitgehend horizontal angeordneten Förderstrecke eines Schwingförderers nur ein geringes Bauvolumen benötigt wird und die Transportgeschwindigkeit auf der Förderstrecke regelbar ist.The device according to the invention has the advantage that, in particular by the use of only a largely horizontally arranged conveying path of a vibratory conveyor only one low volume is required and the transport speed can be controlled on the conveyor line.

Darüber hinaus weist die erfindungsgemäße Vorrichtung den Vorteil auf, dass die Rinnen eine Grundfläche bzw. Querschnitt aufweisen, die einer glatten konvexen Kurve entspricht, mit dem Vorteil, dass insbesondere scheibenförmige Gegenstände wie Münzen eine Zweipunktauflage in den Rinnen haben. Diese Eigenschaft unterscheidet sie von allen anders geformten Gegenständen, insbesondere den auszuseparierenden Fremdkörpern. Durch die Anordnung der Durchbrüche am tiefsten Punkt der Rinne ist somit gewährleistet, dass die Münzen darüber hinweg transportiert werden und kleinere Fremdkörper aussepariert werden bzw. schlüsselartige Gegenstände auf Grund ihrer Dreipunktauflage mit einem Unterstützungspunkt in den Durchbruch ragen und somit über diesen gezielt aus dem Separiergut entnommen und einem Sammelbehältnis zugeführt werden.In addition, the device according to the invention has the advantage that the grooves have a base area or cross section which corresponds to a smooth convex curve, with the advantage that in particular disc-shaped objects such as coins have a two-point support in the grooves. This property distinguishes them from all other shaped objects, in particular the auszuseparierenden foreign bodies. By arranging the apertures at the lowest point of the channel is thus ensured that the coins are transported across it and smaller foreign bodies are separated or key-like objects protrude due to its three-point support with a support point in the breakthrough and thus specifically taken over this from the Separiergut and supplied to a collecting container.

Eine in der Figur 1 als 1 gekennzeichnete Vorrichtung zum Separieren von Fremdkörpern aus einem Münzgemisch umfasst eine verschwenkbare Zuführschütte 2, die an einem Münzleittrichter 3 der Vorrichtung 1 befestigt ist. Der Münzleittrichter 3 ist Endseitig an einer annähernd horizontal verlaufenden Förderstrecke 4 befestigt. Die Förderstrecke 4 ist Bestandteil eines Schwingförderers, dessen Antrieb 5 ein Vibrator ist, der unterhalb der Förderstrecke 4 angeordnet ist. Die rechteckförmige Förderstrecke 4 im Bereich des Münzleittrichters 3 umfasst einen planen Münzzuführbereich 6, an dem sich Rinnen 7 anschließen, die parallel zueinander angeordnet sind und sich in Längsrichtung der Förderstrecke 4 erstrecken. Die Rinnen 7 weisen eine Grundfläche auf, die mit einer glatten konvexen Kurve beschreibbar sind, wie z. B. halbkreisförmige, elliptisch, katenodisch oder parabolisch. Die Rinnen 7 weisen Durchbrüche 8 auf. Die Durchbrüche 8 verengen sich einseitig und bilden somit eine Schikane. Die einseitige Verengung der Durchbrüche 8 ist in Förderrichtung im Endbereich der Durchbrüche angeordnet. Unterhalb der Förderstrecke 4 ist im Bereich der Durchbrüche 8 ein Fremdkörperleitkanal 9 angeordnet. Dem Endbereich 10 der Förderstrecke 4 ist ein Sortierkeil 11 zugeordnet, der unter Vermittlung eines Abstandes zur Förderstrecke 4 angeordnet ist. Zwischen dem Sortierkeil 11 und der Förderstrecke 4 bildet sich ein Münzleitkanal 12 aus, der im Bereich einer nicht näher dargestellten Münzzählmaschine mündet. Ein Bereich der Förderstrecke 4 stromab der Durchbrüche 8 in den Rinnen 7 ist gegenüber der Förderstrecke im Bereich der Durchbrüche 8 geringfügig nach unten versetzt angeordnet. Der Querschnitt der Rinnen 7 im Bereich 13 entspricht dem Querschnitt der Rinnen 7 im Bereich der Durchbrüche 8.One in the FIG. 1 A device designated as 1 for separating foreign bodies from a coin mixture comprises a pivotable feed chute 2, which is fastened to a Münzleittrichter 3 of the device 1. The Münzleittrichter 3 is attached to an end approximately horizontally extending conveyor section 4. The conveyor line 4 is part of a vibratory conveyor whose drive 5 is a vibrator, which is arranged below the conveyor section 4. The rectangular conveying path 4 in the region of the Münzleittrichters 3 comprises a plane Münzzuführbereich 6, which is followed by grooves 7, which are arranged parallel to each other and extend in the longitudinal direction of the conveying path 4. The grooves 7 have a base surface which can be described with a smooth convex curve, such. B. semicircular, elliptical, catenodic or parabolic. The grooves 7 have openings 8. The openings 8 narrow on one side and thus form a chicane. The one-sided constriction of the apertures 8 is arranged in the conveying direction in the end region of the apertures. Below the conveyor section 4, a Fremdkörperleitkanal 9 is arranged in the region of the apertures 8. The end region 10 of the conveying path 4 is associated with a sorting wedge 11, which is arranged with the intermediary of a distance to the conveying path 4. Between the sorting wedge 11 and the conveyor section. 4 a Münzleitkanal 12 forms, which opens in the area of a coin counting machine, not shown. An area of the conveyor line 4 downstream of the apertures 8 in the channels 7 is arranged offset slightly downwards relative to the conveyor line in the area of the apertures 8. The cross section of the grooves 7 in the region 13 corresponds to the cross section of the grooves 7 in the region of the openings 8.

In der Figur 2 ist die horizontal verlaufende Förderstrecke 4 der Vorrichtung 1 in Draufsicht dargestellt. Die rechteckförmige Förderstrecke 4 umfasst den Münzzuführbereich 6 der annähernd plan ausgebildet ist. Daran erstrecken sich parallel zueinander in Längsrichtung der Förderstrecke 4 verlaufende Rinnen 7 mit einer Grundfläche, die mit einer glatten konvexen Kurve beschreibbar ist, wie z. B. halbkreisförmige, elliptisch, katenodisch oder parabolisch. Die Rinnen 7 weisen im Bereich des tiefsten Punktes Durchbrüche 8 auf, die sich zum Endbereich der Durchbrüche 8 einseitig verengen und somit eine Schikane 14 bilden. Im Anschluss der Durchbrüche 8 ist der verbleibenden Rinnenbereich 13 gegenüber dem vorangegangenen Rinnenbereich leicht nach unten versetzt angeordnet, jedoch unter Beibehaltung der Grundfläche. Am Ende der Förderstrecke 4 schließt sich ein nicht näher dargestellter Sortierkeil 11 an, der unter Vermittlung eines Abstandes zur Förderstrecke 4 angeordnet ist. Zwischen dem Sortierkeil 11 und der Förderstrecke 4 bildet sich ein Münzleitkanal 12 aus, der im Bereich einer nicht näher dargestellten Münzzählmaschine mündet.In the FIG. 2 is the horizontal conveyor line 4 of the device 1 shown in plan view. The rectangular conveying path 4 comprises the Münzzuführbereich 6 is formed approximately planar. This extending parallel to each other in the longitudinal direction of the conveyor line 4 extending grooves 7 having a base surface which is writable with a smooth convex curve, such. B. semicircular, elliptical, catenodic or parabolic. The grooves 7 have in the region of the lowest point breakthroughs 8, which narrow to the end of the openings 8 on one side and thus form a chicane 14. Following the apertures 8, the remaining channel region 13 is arranged offset slightly downwards relative to the preceding channel region, but while retaining the base surface. At the end of the conveyor line 4, a sorting wedge 11, not shown, adjoins, which is arranged with the intermediary of a distance to the conveyor line 4. Between the sorting wedge 11 and the conveying path 4, a Münzleitkanal 12 forms, which opens in the area of a coin counting machine, not shown.

In den Rinnen 7 der Förderstrecke 4 befinden sich Schlüssel 15, 16. Die Schlüssel 16, die mit einem Bart nach vorne, in Richtung des Endbereiches 10 der Förderstrecke 4 zur Ausgabekante gefördert werden, liegen mit drei Punkten in der Rinne 7. Der Bart des Schlüssels 16 zentriert sich während des Rüttelvorgangs in der Rinne 7, während das Griffstück des Schlüssels 16 tendenziell rechts und links in der Rinne 7 aufliegt. Der Schlüssel 16 bewegt sich in Förderrichtung auf die Ausgabekante bzw. Endbereich 10 zu. Sobald der Schlüssel 16 den Durchbruch 8 erreicht, kippt der Bart in den Durchbruch 8. Wenn der Schwerpunkt des Schlüssels 16 sich nach dem Abkippen weiterhin genau zentrisch unter der Achse der Rinne 7 eingependelt hat, wird er so lange in dem Durchbruch 8 transportiert, bis er an die Schikane 14, die aus einer einseitigen Verengung des Durchbruchs 8 besteht, im Endbereich des Durchbruchs 8 stößt, welche ihn dreht. Er fällt dann durch den Durchbruch 8 in den unterhalb der Förderstrecke angeordneten Fremdkörperleitkanal 9.In the grooves 7 of the conveyor section 4 are keys 15, 16. The key 16, which are promoted with a beard forward, in the direction of the end portion 10 of the conveyor section 4 to the output edge, lie with three points in the trough 7. The beard of Key 16 centers during the shaking process in the groove 7, while the handle of the key 16 tends to rest on the right and left in the groove 7. The key 16 moves in the conveying direction towards the output edge or end region 10. As soon as the key 16 reaches the opening 8, the beard tilts into the opening 8. If the center of gravity of the key 16 after tilting has continued to settle exactly centrically below the axis of the channel 7, it will be transported in the aperture 8 until he pushes the baffle 14, which consists of a one-sided narrowing of the opening 8, in the end region of the opening 8, which turns it. He then falls through the opening 8 in the arranged below the conveyor line Fremdkörperleitkanal. 9

Wenn der Schwerpunkt des Schlüssels 16 nicht genau mittig unter der Achse der Rinne 7 liegt, fällt er schon, bevor er die Schikane 14 erreicht hat durch den Durchbruch 8. Um zu verhindern, dass Gegenstände, wie z. B. Münzen, die einem Schlüssel folgen, das Drehen des Schlüssels 16 an der Schikane 14 verhindern, ist der Bereich der Rinne 7, der dem Durchbruch 8 folgt nach unten abgesetzt. Somit kann für diesen Fall der Schlüssel 16 weiter über den Bereich und damit über den Endbereich 10 aussortiert werden.If the center of gravity of the key 16 is not exactly centered below the axis of the channel 7, he falls before he has reached the chicane 14 through the opening 8. To prevent objects such. B. coins that follow a key to prevent turning of the key 16 on the baffle 14, the area of the channel 7, which follows the opening 8 is deposited down. Thus, in this case, the key 16 can be further sorted out over the area and thus over the end area 10.

Schlüssel 15, die mit einem Bart nach hinten in die Rinne 7 gelangen, liegen mit dem Griffstück des Schlüssels 15 auf drei Auflagepunkten in der Rinne 7 auf. Da dieser jedoch mit dem Griffstück voran in der Rinne 7 transportiert wird, hat er eine stabile Führung, so dass er obwohl der Bart in den Durchbruch 8 hineinkippt, sich über diesen hinwegbewegt. Damit der Schlüssel 15 nicht am Ende der Förderstrecke 4 in den Münzleitkanal 12 der Münzen fällt, wird das unterschiedliche Kippverhalten von zylindrischen und scheibenförmigen Gegenständen genutzt. Der Schwerpunkt von scheibenförmigen Gegenständen wie z. B. Münzen befindet sich genau in der Mitte der Achse zwischen den beiden Auflagepunkten. Wenn die Münzen also die Ausgabekante der Rinne 7 erreichen, kippen sie sofort in den Münzleitkanal 12 zur darunter befindlichen, nicht näher dargestellten Münzzählmaschine. Diejenigen Schlüssel 15, die mit dem Griff in Richtung der Ausgabekante transportiert werden, haben ihren Schwerpunkt bedingt durch den Schlüsselbart weiter hinten. Dadurch ragt das Griffstück des Schlüssels 15 weiter über die Ausgabekante hinaus, bis sie kippen. Der Sortierkeil 11 ist in Abstand und Höhe so angebracht, dass er die abkippenden Münzen von dem Schlüssel 15 trennt. Der Schlüsselschwerpunkt liegt beim Abkippen des Schlüssels 15 auf der Ausgabekante. Wenn der Schlüssel 15 kippt, befindet er sich bereits auf der Schräge des Sortierkeils 11. Da sich der Bart des Schlüssels noch in der Rinne 7 befindet, wird er so lange weitergefördert, bis sich der Schwerpunkt auf der Ausgabekante befindet. Durch die Konstruktion ist gewährleistet, dass der Schlüssel 15 über die Schräge des Sortierkeils 11 aussortiert wird.Key 15, which reach with a beard to the rear into the channel 7, lie with the handle of the key 15 on three support points in the channel 7. However, since this is transported with the handle first in the channel 7, he has a stable leadership, so that he even though the beard into the opening 8, it moves over this. So that the key 15 does not fall at the end of the conveying path 4 into the Münzleitkanal 12 of the coins, the different tilting behavior of cylindrical and disc-shaped objects is used. The focus of disc-shaped objects such. For example coins is located exactly in the middle of the axis between the two support points. So when the coins reach the output edge of the channel 7, they tilt immediately into Münzleitkanal 12 to underneath, not shown Münzzählmaschine. Those keys 15, which are transported with the handle in the direction of the output edge, have their focus due to the key bit further back. As a result, the handle of the key 15 continues to protrude beyond the dispensing edge until it tips over. The sorting wedge 11 is mounted at a distance and height so as to separate the tipping coins from the key 15. The key focus is tilting the key 15 on the output edge. When the key 15 tilts, it is already on the slope of the sorting wedge 11. Since the beard of the key is still in the channel 7, it will continue to be promoted until the focus is on the output edge. The construction ensures that the key 15 is sorted out over the slope of the sorting wedge 11.
