The shutter on the upper surface of the coin receiving slot 2 is automatically opened based on the deposit instruction operation of the machine operator, and the operator inserts the deposited coin into the coin receiving section 3 from the coin receiving slot 2. Upon detecting the insertion of the coin, the shutter is automatically closed. Immediately thereafter, the shutter 4 at the bottom of the coin receiving unit 3 is automatically opened, and the coin is discharged from the discharge port 5 to the hopper 9 of the storing and feeding unit 7. To be released. After the release, the shutter 4 closes and the shutter on the upper surface of the coin receiving slot 2 opens. The coins stored in the storage and dispensing section 7 are rotated by the rotation of the rotating disk 8 so that the coins project from the periphery of the rotating disk 8 at predetermined intervals.
At 10, the coins are fed to the coin passage 11 at intervals.

Thus, the depositing operation can be continued several times. Normally, the collection box 61 is mounted in the meantime, and when the mounting detection switch 64 is turned on when the collection box 61 is mounted, the shutter 75 at the bottom of the temporary storage unit 71 is opened, and the coins in the temporary storage unit 71 are opened. Is released into the collection box 61 and stored.
Even if the collection box 61 is mounted during the payment processing, the payment processing when the collection box 61 is not mounted is continued until the payment processing is completed. The processing is returned to.

In some cases, during the payment processing operation (actually during the storage of coins in the temporary storage unit 71 at the time of payment approval), the full detection sensor 76 detects that the temporary storage unit 71 is full. In this case, since the full detection level is set at a level that allows for one payment processing amount, the subsequent payment processing is prohibited when the payment processing is completed. When the collection box 61 is mounted, the coins in the temporary storage section 71 are stored in the collection box 61, the fullness detection is released, and the deposit processing can be performed.
