In this coin ejecting device, the inner coin storage parts 12 1 to 12 4 contain 100 yen, 50 yen, 10 yen, 5 yen,
Various coins of 1 yen are selected and stored, and taken out two at a time from the coin receiving section 17, and the outer coin storage sections 131 to 134 similarly select and store various coins, respectively, and are taken out from the coin receiving section 17. Take out one sheet at a time from No. 18. In this case, the inner and outer double concentric circles
A plurality of coin storage sections 12 1 to 12 4 on S 1 and S 2 respectively
and 13 1 to 13 4 are arranged respectively, so
It has a large number of coin accommodating parts and can accommodate a large number of different types of coins. The coin ejecting rod 23 is held by the coin ejecting rod holding member 22 and horizontally rotated by the rotating shaft 3, and its upright portions 26 and 27 rotate in the same circles as the circles S 1 and S 2 , respectively. In normal times, that is, when coins are not ejected, the solenoid 28 is not driven and the plunger rod 30 is lowered, so the coin ejecting rod 23 is pressed down by the return spring 25 and rotates horizontally while rotating downward. , the upright portions 26 and 27 correspond to each of the coin storage portions 12 1 to 12 4
The coin receiving portions 17 and 18 of 13 1 to 13 4 are located below and rotate. When coins are to be discharged, the coin discharge control section 55 drives the solenoid 28 based on the detection signals from the detectors 34 and 35. To explain this operation in detail, for example, when the amount of change is 100 yen, the coin discharge control section 55 drives the solenoid 28. sets the ejected coins as one 100 yen coin and one 10 yen coin, holds these in the register, and sends this ejected coin signal to the coin ejection control section 55. The coin ejecting control section 55 controls the solenoid 28 to raise the ejecting rod based on the ejecting coin signal from the ejecting coin specifying section 56 and the ejecting rod position signal from the ejecting rod position determination circuit 52, for example. When a signal of a 100 yen coin is sent from the ejected coin designating section 56, the upright portion 27 of the coin ejecting rod 23 moves into a coin storage tube (for example, the second coin storage tube 13 1 ) that accommodates a 100 yen coin. When the position signal is input from the ejecting rod position determination circuit 52, the solenoid 28 is excited and driven to raise the coin ejecting rod 23 to the coin ejecting height. When the coin passes through the coin storage tube and the position signal is input from the pushing rod position determination circuit 52, the excitation of the solenoid 28 is stopped and the coin pushing rod 23 is lowered by the spring force of the return spring 25, and at the same time Ejected coin designation section 5
A 100 yen coin ejection completion signal is sent to 6 to cause the number of 100 yen coins held in the register of the ejected coin designating section 56 to be subtracted by 1.
This is the same when discharging other types of coins, and in this coin discharging operation, the number of each coin held in the register of the discharged coin designating section 56 is all 0.
is repeated until . Each of the coin accommodating sections 12 1 to 1 located on the front side in the rotational direction of the coin accommodating sections 12 1 to 12 4 or 13 1 to 13 4 that accommodate the predetermined coins from which the coin ejecting rod 23 is to be taken out in this manner.
2 4 and 13 1 to 13 4 , and each coin storage section 12 1 to 12 4 and 13 1 to 13 4 is pushed up by the space between them, and by the upright portions 26 and 27 of the coin ejecting rod 23.
The coins on the coin receiving parts 17 and 18 are pushed out. That is, when the plunger rod 30 is raised by driving the solenoid 28, the coin storage sections 12 1 to 12
4 and 13 1 to 13 4 , the coin ejecting rod 23 is rotated upward and the upright portion 26,
27 (via the guide groove 21) coin receiving part 17,
18 and is pushed up to a height corresponding to the thickness of a predetermined number of coins. Since the coin ejecting rod 23 is horizontally rotated, the inner upright portion 26 enters the interior through the entry port 19 at the lower end of the inner coin storage portions 12 1 to 12 4 and into the guide groove 2 of the coin receiving portion 17 .
1, two coins 9 on the coin receiving part 17
It moves while pressing , and when it exits from the extrusion port 20, it pushes out the two coins 9 outward. The outer upright portion 27 is located at the lower end of the outer coin accommodating portions 13 1 to 13 4 , and enters inside from the entry port 19 and passes through the guide groove 21 of the coin receiving portion 18 . The coin 9 is pushed and moved to be pushed outward from the push-out port 20. Coin 9 is coin pushing rod 2
3 rotates outside the rotation direction, that is, the circle S 1 ,
The coin is pushed by the upright portions 26 and 27 in the tangential direction of S 2 and ejects from the extrusion port 20, and is then guided along the coin guide plate 36 to the coin ejection port and discharged. In addition, the inner coin storage portions 12 1 to 12
Coin extrusion rod 23 from the extrusion port 20 at the lower end of 4
The coin 9 pushed out to the outside in the rotational direction moves toward the lower end of the outer coin storage sections 13 1 to 13 4 , but as described above, the coin storage sections 12 1 to 12 4
The coin receiving portion 17 of is located at a lower position than the coin receiving portions 18 of the coin accommodating portions 13 1 to 13 4. In other words, the coin receiving portion 18 is located at a higher position than the coin receiving portion 17, so the coin receiving portion 17 is located at a lower position.

In the coin ejecting device of the present invention, one of the modes for making the number of coins taken out by the coin ejecting rod different from the coin receiving section depending on the coin accommodating section is to change the number of coins that the coin ejecting rod takes out from the coin receiving section depending on the coin accommodating section. In this case, the number of coins taken out is not limited to increasing the number of coins taken out in the coin storage part on the inner circle, but also the number of coins taken out in the coin storage part on the outside circle. The number of coins to be taken out is not limited to concentric circles and can be set arbitrarily, such as increasing the number of coins. In addition, the number of coins to be taken out can also be made different for each coin storage section provided on the same circle. Furthermore, the number of coins taken out may be three or more. In addition, the manner in which the coin storage section is arranged is as in the embodiment.
The method is not limited to setting two concentric circles and arranging a plurality of coin accommodating parts on each circle, but it is also possible to arrange the coin accommodating parts on three or more concentric circles. The number of coin storage sections disposed on the top may be one or more. The combination structure of the coin ejecting rod and the coin receiving part is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiment, and other structures such as two coin ejecting rods may be used. The structure for holding the coin ejecting rod and rotating it by the rotating shaft and the drive control means for moving the coin ejecting rod up and down are not limited to the solenoid, and can be modified in various ways. The coin ejecting device of the present invention can be used in a wide range of applications such as change machines.

As explained above, the coin ejecting device of the present invention has the following features:
The coin accommodating portions are arranged on a plurality of concentric circles centered on the rotation axis for rotating the coin ejecting rod, and the number of coins taken out from the coin receiving portion by the coin ejecting rod is varied depending on the coin accommodating portion. In addition to being able to easily arrange many coin storage units in a small space and increasing the number of coin storage units to accommodate a large number of coins of various types,
By varying the number of coins to be taken out depending on the coin storage section, the number of coins to be taken out for each coin storage section can be appropriately divided depending on the frequency of coin ejection, and coins can be ejected efficiently and quickly. The number of coins taken out from the coin accommodating section can be changed accordingly, providing versatility. Furthermore, since many types and numbers of coins can be taken out with one rotation of the coin ejection rod, a wide variety of coins can be taken out with a small rotation. Furthermore, since the coin ejection rod is rotated and moved in the axial direction by a single drive means using a solenoid or the like to take out coins from multiple coin storage sections, there is no need to provide a drive means for each coin storage section. , simplifying the configuration and improving economic efficiency. Therefore, the structure is simple and compact, and a wide variety of coins can be taken out efficiently and quickly, and the coin ejecting function is excellent.
