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:
When a bill is inserted into the bill acceptor, sensor components sense the insertion of bill, bill-pressing roller set of bill transmission mechanism is driven to press bill, bill-transfer roller set is driven to transfer bill the bill-pressing roller set is released from the bill, and step motors of alignment correction unit are controlled to move correction devices toward each other to align the bill with the center line of bill passage subject to a predetermined number of steps. If the resistance force from bill is larger than the thrust force produced during rotation of step motors, utilize the step loss status of step motors and enable transmission devices to move correction devices away from bill when the rotation of step motors reaches the predetermined number of steps, and then enable bill-pressing roller set to press bill again and then enable bill-transfer roller set to transfer bill.
