Abstract:
A coin dispenser is disclosed to use a dialing rod of a dialing device of a coin dispensing unit to push one side of the peripheral edge of one metal coin so that the other side of the peripheral edge of the metal coin will push two coin-stopping columns of one spring plate of the coin dispensing unit, causing the two coin-stopping columns to slide along the peripheral edge of the metal coin, and thus, when the metal coin crosses two coin-stopping columns, the metal coin is sent out of the coin outlet, achieving the effect of dispensing one metal coin at one time.
Abstract:
A coin acceptor includes main body having coin dispenser mounted therein, coin tubes mounted in the main body and disposed at the bottom side of the coin dispenser, and sensing device including multiple optical sensor modules respectively aimed at the coin tubes. The distance between each optical sensor module and the coins in the respective coin tube is calculated by: measuring the time taken for the reflected light to travel from the coins in the respective coin tube to the proximity sensor of the respective optical sensor module and then multiplying the time thus measured by the speed of light. The number of coins in each coin tube is calculated by: deducting the distance between the respective optical sensor module and the coins in the respective coin tube from the pre-measured depth of the empty coin tube, and then dividing the reminder thus obtained by the thickness of single coin.
Abstract:
A coin hopper includes a hopper body including a housing having an accommodation chamber defined in a funnel-shaped coin box thereof and a coin outlet for guiding coins out of the accommodation chamber individually, a rotating wheel having multiple coin-pushing blades extended from a wheel base thereof and a coin-receiving space defined between each two adjacent coin-pushing blades, each coin-pushing blade having an abutment edge extending along one lateral side thereof for stopping one coin in one coin-receiving space and a pushing edge extending along an opposite lateral side thereof, a power drive adapted for rotating the rotating wheel to let coins be ruffled by coin-pushing blades and forced into coin-receiving spaces and then guided by arc-shaped abutment edges to move out of each coin-receiving space upwardly toward coin outlet one after another, and a coin-dispensing mechanism including a spring-loaded lever for pushing coins out of coin outlet individually.
Abstract:
A coin acceptor includes a coin acceptor main unit including a first holder shell and second holder shell pivotally coupled together, and a face panel including a panel body fastened to the front side of the first holder shell and a limiter mechanism mounted at the back side of the panel body and adjustable between a constraint position and a release position to control the biasing angle of the second holder shell relative to the first holder shell, preventing an evil person from inserting a screwdriver, pry or any other tool through a coin insertion slot or coin-return slot of the face panel into the inside of the coin acceptor main unit to damage the internal structure.
Abstract:
A troubleshooted coin output method used in a coin dispensing and outputting machine including a machine main unit formed of a coin dispensing unit, a coin hopper consisting of a driver circuit, motors, coin-pushing modules and sensors and a circuit module, and coin tubes for storing coins. When outputting coins, the circuit module counts the amount of coins to be outputted subject to the amount of money to be given, and then stops the coin output operation if the outputted amount of coins does not match the amount of money to be given due to failure or one motor or any other reasons, and then counts the rest amount to be given, and then drives the other motor to output coins till that the desired amount are outputted, thereby troubleshooting the problem.
Abstract:
The coin differentiating unit comprises a case, a detecting device, a first motor set, a second motor set and a dispensing plate. The case comprises a coin differentiation area and a coin collection area. The coin collection area comprises a groove. The groove comprises a coin identifying plate and a coin over-load dispensing plate pivotally mounted there within. And the coin collection area comprises a plurality of coin channels comprising a partition plate in between two adjacent coin channels. A circuit board and the detecting device are positioned inside the differentiation area of the case. A plurality of detecting elements is positioned over the circuit board. The first and second motor sets are used to control the coin identifying plate and the coin-overload dispensing plate for differentiating the real coins from phony coins and for closing the coin collection case when the coin collection case is over-loaded with the coins.
Abstract:
The coin ejection unit comprises a case, a motor set, a plurality of ejecting plates, and coin storage canister. The case comprises a base, bottom cover and a rear plate, and a base portion comprising a plurality of coin hoppers. A motor set is attached on a side of the base portion. The motor rotates a dispensing axel, the biasing rollers presses against the corresponding buckling plates of the pulling plates to press the buckling plates inside the corresponding indented grooves of the sliding element, meanwhile the biasing roller of the motor case will make the connecting bar to move backward and forward pulling the sliding element and the pulling plate outwardly, as a result the blocking portion of the pulling plate will pull out a lower most coin stored in the coin magazines.
