DOUBLE SECURITY com COLLECTING SYSTEM Filed Sept. 19, 1962 W U W INVENTORS LOUIS L. sps'rsm United States Patent This invention relates to a coin collecting system to be used by various kinds of coin-operated vending machines, as cigarette and music machines, for example.
The system herein disclosed afiords double security, and comprises, in combination, an electrically operated counter, adapted to separately register, or count and record coins of different denominations, a coin selectorrejector adapted to reject spurious or counterfeit coins and to pass valid ones, electrical means adapted to actuate said counter when a valid coin passes through said selector rejector, and a coin vault adapted to receive coins from the selector. The coin vault is preferably of the pilferproof type, as illustrated in the present drawings, is releasably locked to the selector-rejector, and is placed within the casing of the machine, as is the rejector, and also, if desired, said coin register.
in the drawings:
FIGURE 1 is an elevational View of the combination of a coin counter, a selector-rejector, and a coinreceptacle, with a general diagram of an electrical circuit within the selcctor-rejector; and
FZGURE 2 is a broken-away elevational view of the coin receptacle.
Referring to the drawings for a detailed description, the
numerals 5, 6 and 7 indicate respectively an electrical mam ?atented Jan. 19,1965
1 through a coin retainer 30 which is open at its upper and lower ends and is secured to, and depends from, the hopper, and then into the bag 24 through the bottom opening of the retainer. This retainer contains a number of plates suspended from pivotally mounted rods, which plates are so arranged, and of such size, that, if the coin vault, after detachment from chute 21, is inverted in an attempt to shake coins out of it, the plates, all falling to one side or the other, are long enough to contact each other and form a barrier which retains the coins. More specifically, the uppermost plate 33 is angular, in the after in the specification termed the S-R, has slots 9, 10,
11 and 12, one for each of the indicated coin denominations. As the construction of an S-R is known, it need only be recalled that there is a chute 50 or tube connected to each coin slot, and that there is an electric switch in each chute which is closed by a coin as it passes thererough, the switches being numbered 15, 16, 17 and 18, corresponding to the slots 9-12 respectively. The .internal structure of the counter 5 is also known. closing of any switch actuates the corresponding individual counter, the S-R being electrically connected, as lmown, to the counter 5, by a cable 3, and the counter 5 provided with power through a cable 4. The number I of coins of each denomination deposited isthereby recorded. Although known, it may be added that spurious coins are not counted, being ejected through the tube 20 which extends to the exterior of the machine.
FIGURE 2 shows the coin vault 7 "as comprising a,
nailed to the retainer. Additionally, there are two angular end plates 45 and 46 depending respectively from rotatable rods 47and 4%. All the plates extend substantially'across the inside of the retainer.
embodiment of the invention that the'combination of components ailords double the security of the usual coin collecting system. Changes within the ordinary skill of the art may be made without departing from the inventive concept. Y i
What is claimed is: I
A double security coin collecting system comprising an electrically operated register adapted to separately count and record coins of different denominations, a coinselector-rejector having slots to receive respectively coins of diiierent denominations and comprising coin chutes adapted to receive coins from their respective coin slots, electrical means associated with said slots and adapted to efiect the actuation of said register when a coin passes through one of said slots, a pilfer-proof vault adapted to receive coins, means detachably locking said vault to the selector-rejector, said coin vault having an open top to receive coins, a coin retainer within said coin vault, a
plurality of depending, pivotally mounted plates in said retainer positioned to allow coins to flow therebetween, said pivotaily mounted plates beingfurther adapted to move, when said vault is inverted, to pivot and close openings through which said coinswould otherwise. pass, said retainerhaving a coin slot at its lower end below said plates, and a flexible coin receptacle enclosing said re- SAMUEL F.
