  • Means are provided for preventing centrifugal and other forces acting on the coins at said shoulder to cause them to pile up upon each other.
  • Coin sorters employing revolving discs having radial coin paths thereon have been proposed, wherein the radial coin paths taper from one end to the other and coins placed in the channels reach a position corresponding to their diameter or denomination at aspecific radial position.
  • prior devices employed tilted discs where the coins were moved along their paths by gravity and were thus limited to relatively low speeds of operation.
  • machines wherein coins were caused to move outwardly on a disc by centrifugal force but such prior proposals were subject to malfunctioning by piling up of coins and were further limited in their speed of operation to relatively low. speeds.
  • the present invention employs a disc spinning at relatively high speeds and onwhich coins are deposited near the center thereof to be thrown outin all directions. Means ensure that thecoins assume a single layer and they are projected outwardly against an annular shoulder where they are arrested temporarily.
  • a multi plic'ity of outwardly tapered channels are formed in the disc and a single stationary cam is positioned adjacent the shoulder to engage the outer edge of a coin restrained by the shoulder, at the entrance of the successive channels, as the disc and coins rotate past the cam.
  • the cam lifts the outer edge of the coin to the top of the shoulder and centrifugal force throws it over the shoulder and out into the channel which defines a tapered path for the coin so that the coin is stopped at a radial position depending on its denomination.
  • the channel portion of the disc rotates over a stationary table having openings therein at the different radial positions corresponding to various coin denominations. Fingers in the openings deflect the coins at that radius downwardly to discharge where counting means count the coins of that denomination which are then accumulated in a receiver.
  • a deflecting gate When a predetermined number of coins have been accumulated inthe receiver, a deflecting gate'operates to deflect further coins of that d'enomination into a second receiver for the accumulation of a second number of coins, thus providing time to replace the reeeiver in which the first group were accumulated'and thus permit continuous operation of the device.
  • the machine includes means responsive to the speed of rotation of the disc to disable the cam referred to so that no-coins are permitted past the annular shoulder when the disc is rotating at low speed, as when starting or stopping".

  • each coin will, as the disc assembly revolves, pass over that opening 78 at its particular radial position.
  • centrifugal force will normally hold the coins against theirarresting means so that they may not drop quickly through the openings 78 by gravity alone.
  • the table 4 is provided with deflector means to be described.
  • each chute member is mounted a deflecting finger 82 extending upwardly above the surface of table member 60 and into a corresponding annular groove 84 in the annular outer disc member 38 so that the disc may ro tate with the deflecting finger 82 extending upwardly above the surface of table member 60 to an upper level slightly above the top surfaces of channels 46.

  • the finger 82 is part of a plate 90 to which two spaced plates 92 are fixedly mounted in laterally spaced relation at the outer faces of spacer members 93.
  • the plates 92 are provided with curved forward edges 94, as best shown in FIG. 5, and serve to maintain a coin 96 in the oriented position shown in FIG. 5, as it is deflected downwardly by the edges 94.
  • a suitable light source 98 is mounted in a block 100 within one end of the flanged fitting 80 and directs a beam oflight toward the assembly shown in FIG.
  • a photocell 102 is carried by the structure of FIG. 7 in position to receive the light beam from light source 98.

As shown, the shape of the parts is such that a coin 96 guided downwardly by the edges 94 will drop through element 110 into a suitable bag or other receiver 112, releasably mounted on the tubular member 110. It is normally desired to count a predetermined number of coins of any particular denomination and accumulate that number as a separate group of coins.
  • the counter 104 may be set in any known manner so that upon accumulation of the desired full count therein current is sent thereby, through conductors I14, to a solenoid I16, the armature 118 of which is connected to a gate pivotally mounted at I22.
  • a spring I24 n'ormally urges the gate 120 and solenoid armature 118 to the full lineposition shown in FIG. 5.
  • the solenoid I16 is energized to swing gate 120 to the dotted line position in which it deflects allsubsequent coins laterally into the tubular member 108 to be deposited in a second bag or receiver 126.
  • the solenoid 116 is maintained in that condition of energization until the desired number of coins have been accumulated in receiver 126, at which time the current to solenoid 116 is shut off and spring 124 returns the parts to the full line position to start accumulating another group of coins in the receiver attached to the tubular member 110.
  • the solenoid 116 automatically stops delivering coins to that receiver and deflects them toward a second receiver and thus an operator is given an opportunity to remove the first receiver or bag 112 and replace it with an empty receiver during the interval of time that coins are being collected in the second receiver.
  • the device may be provided with any suitable means for feeding loosecoins of;random denomination into the hopper portion 26. Those coins then fall upon the cone l8 and the upper surface of the central disc portion 16'and are deflected by cone 18 in all radiallyoutwai'd directions. With the disc 16 rotating at high speed those'coins are thrown outwardly along the surface of disc 16 and are forced to a single layer of coins by shear ring 36 and outwardly until they are arrested by the barrierring 50. Before the coins reach the barrier ring 50, howev er, they must enter-the entrance ends of channels 46, as shown at '62 in FIG. 9.

  • two coins of the smalleet denomination are shown in dotted line in FIG. 9 and it is evident that only one of them can abut the shoulder defined by barrier ring 50, and the edge of only that one coinwill pass over the upper edge of cam 70. Due to the high centrifugal forces developed, coinS radially inwardly of those, bearing against the barrier ring 50 may exert sufficient pressure to cause coins in the entrance portion 62 to .pile up, that is, to slip over each other with one upon another particularly if the edges of the coins are worn or somewhat rounded.
  • the disc portion 38 is provided with a plurality of elongated metal rods 130, each guided by suitable channels 132 in the disc member 38 for free vertical movement under the influence of gravity.
  • Thechannels 132 do not extend through the bottom of the disc member 38 and the rods l30are normally held spaced flow of coins, including the possibility that it may remain there and not be counted.
  • the shear ring 36 is provided with one or more openings 138 (see FIGS. 1 and 8) in each of which a ball 140 is positioned and urged downwardly by a leaf spring 142.
  • the balls 140 tend to constantly agitate the coins radially inwardly from the barrier ring 50 to prevent any coin from becoming stuck" on the surface 134.
  • FIG. 1 shows the relative angular positions of cam 70 and discharge openings 78, and it is apparent that, as the high point of cam 70 releases a coin to the channel 46 outwardly thereofl'that channel has passed all of the discharge openings 78. Thus, the coin can fly outwardly and reach its arrested position before it reaches the first discharge opening 78 for the largest denomination of coins.
  • therotary disc must be rotated at relatively high speed for the describcdapparatus to funcabove the top surface of disc member 16 a distance generally the same as the distance between ring 36 and disc 16, so that single coins may pass freely beneath them.
  • the weight of the rods 130 there being one extendingacross each entrance portion-.62, prevents the buckling of the'layer of coins under the influence of, centrifugal force orother disturbing forces exerted by the coins behind those at thedbarrier 50.
  • the entrance ends of channels 46 are somewhat spaced apart and an inner edge surface 134 (of disc member 38) is Presented to the outwardly flowing coins.
