On connaît déjà un dispositif de ce type par le document DE-A-3 034 808. Le dispositif de ce document comprend un moteur, sur l'arbre duquel sont montées deux cames qui actionnement respectivement deux volets, ou palettes, d'aiguillage. Une telle double structure est déjà en soi un inconvénient, du fait de son coût et de sa sensibilité aux chocs. En outre, les volets de ce dispositif sont agencés de telle manière que, si les pièces de monnaie sont bien aiguillées vers la caisse une à une, elles ne peuvent toutefois être aiguillées vers le réceptacle que toutes à la fois. C'est un deuxième inconvénient de ce dispositif connu.A device of this type is already known from document DE-A-3 034 808. The device of this document comprises a motor, on the shaft of which are mounted two cams which actuate respectively two flaps, or pallets, of switch. Such a double structure is already a drawback in itself, because of its cost and its sensitivity to shocks. In addition, the flaps of this device are arranged in such a way that, if the coins are correctly directed towards the cash register one by one, they can however only be directed towards the receptacle all at once. This is a second drawback of this known device.
La présente invention vise à pallier ces inconvénients de l'art antérieur.The present invention aims to overcome these drawbacks of the prior art.
A cet effet, la présente invention concerne un dispositif du type mentionné ci-dessus, caractérisé par le fait que les moyens de commande des moyens d'aiguillage comprennent un cylindre à la surface duquel est défini un chemin d'aiguillage agencé pour être suivi par un palpeur de commande des moyens d'aiguillage.To this end, the present invention relates to a device of the type mentioned above, characterized in that the control means of the switching means comprise a cylinder at the surface of which is defined a switching path arranged to be followed by a sensor for controlling the switching means.
De préférence, le chemin d'aiguillage est double et comporte deux portions dans deux plans radiaux parallèles raccordés à une portion commune centrale.Preferably, the routing path is double and comprises two portions in two parallel radial planes connected to a central common portion.
Avantageusement, le cylindre d'aiguillage est monté pour être entraîné en rotation par le moteur par l'intermédiaire d'une vis sans fin.Advantageously, the switching cylinder is mounted to be driven in rotation by the motor by means of a worm screw.
Avantageusement encore, le cylindre d'aiguillage est pourvu d'un bossage agencé pour faire pivoter un levier d'arrêt du moteur.Advantageously also, the switching cylinder is provided with a boss arranged to pivot an engine stop lever.
Dans ce cas, une tige de retenue des pièces de monnaie adjacentes à une pièce à aiguiller dans la caisse ou le réceptacle peut être articulée sur le levier d'arrêt et est agencée pour, sous l'action de moyens de rappel, traverser une paroi du couloir de circulation et bloquer les pièces à retenir.In this case, a coin retaining rod adjacent to a coin to be pointed in the case or the receptacle can be articulated on the stop lever and is arranged for, under the action of return means, to pass through a wall. of the circulation corridor and block the parts to be retained.
De préférence, le levier d'arrêt du moteur est agencé pour actionner le levier d'un interrupteur relié aux moyens de mise en marche du moteur.Preferably, the engine stop lever is arranged to actuate the lever of a switch connected to the engine starting means.
De préférence encore, les moyens d'aiguillage comprennent une palette pourvue d'un épaulement de retenue et de deux rampes de guidage latérales et montée pivotante sous l'action du palpeur.More preferably, the switching means comprise a pallet provided with a retaining shoulder and two lateral guide ramps and pivotally mounted under the action of the probe.

- Figure 2 is a schematic view of the entire device of the invention;
- FIG. 3 is a schematic view of the developed referral cylinder, and
- FIG. 4 is a schematic sectional view of a portion of the referral cylinder, along the line xy in FIG. 3.
Le dispositif d'encaissement et de renvoi de pièces de monnaie représenté sur les figures est intégré dans un appareil à prépaiement, du type téléphone publique.The coin collection and return device shown in the figures is integrated into a prepayment device, of the public telephone type.
Il comporte, à la suite d'une goulotte d'introduction des pièces, un couloir à double paroi 1 dans lequel les pièces peuvent circuler par gravité avant de s'empiler les unes sur les autres contre une palette d'aiguillage 2. Un dispositif classique d'identification des pièces, non représenté, et disposé sur le côté du couloir de circulation 1.It comprises, after a chute for inserting the parts, a double-walled corridor 1 in which the parts can circulate by gravity before stacking one on the other against a switching
La palette d'aiguillage 2 comporte une tête avec un épaulement de retenue des pièces et, orthogonalement, deux rampes latérales inclinées de guidage des pièces, montée en bout d'un bras articulé sur un axe 3 s'étendant sensiblement dans le plan du couloir de circulation, ici perpendiculaire à la surface de roulement des pièces. En position de repos P₀ (figure 1), l'épaulement de retenue de la palette 2 est dans le prolongement du couloir 1 et retient les pièces.The
La palette 2 peut être pivotée autour de son axe 3 de part et d'autre du couloir 1 pour laisser tomber une pièce soit dans le couloir d'entrée 11 d'un réceptacle de renvoi des pièces, soit dans le couloir d'entrée 12 d'une caisse.The
Le pivotement de la palette 2, et par conséquent l'aiguillage des pièces vers la caisse ou le réceptacle, est assuré par la chaîne qui va maintenant être décrite. Cette chaîne comporte tout d'abord un moteur électrique à deux sens de marche 6. L'arbre du moteur porte un pignon denté engrenant sur une vis sans fin 52 solidaire en rotation d'un cylindre d'aiguillage 5, la vis et le cylindre étant montés rotatifs dans l'appareil par deux tourillons d'extrémité 50, 51.The pivoting of the
La mise en marche du moteur 6, dans un sens ou dans l'autre, est effectuée de façon connue par le dispositif d'identification des pièces et un circuit électronique de commande.The starting of the motor 6, in one direction or the other, is carried out in a known manner by the device for identifying the parts and an electronic control circuit.
La chaîne d'aiguillage comporte aussi un levier 7 et un interrupteur 10 d'arrêt du moteur et une tige 13 de retenue des pièces empilées dans le couloir 1 sur la première pièce 15 à aiguiller, l'écoulement des pièces devant s'effectuer une à une.The referral chain also includes a lever 7 and a
Le levier 7 est monté pivotant sur un axe 8 de l'appareil. Sur ce levier 7 est articulée la tige 13 dont l'extrémité libre traverse l'une 14 des parois du couloir de circulation 1. Sous l'action d'un ressort 9, fixé à la tige 13 et à la paroi 14 du couloir 1, et rappelant la tige 13, celle-ci peut venir presser contre l'autre paroi du couloir 1 la pièce 15′ adjacente à celle 15 à aiguiller pour la bloquer, et avec elle toutes celles empilées dessus, pendant l'évacuation de la première pièce dans la caisse ou le réceptacle.The lever 7 is pivotally mounted on an
La longueur du levier 7 est telle que, sous l'action du ressort 9, son extrémité libre vient coopérer avec le bord du cylindre 5 tourné vers la vis sans fin 52.The length of the lever 7 is such that, under the action of the spring 9, its free end cooperates with the edge of the
Le cylindre 5 porte, sur son bord de coopération avec le levier 7, un bossage 55 s'étendant sur une petite portion de la circonférence du cylindre. Ainsi, au cours de la rotation du cylindre, le levier 7 peut être pivoté d'une position de pressage de pièce, à droite sur la figure 2, sous l'action du ressort 9, à une position d'actionnement du levier d'un interrupteur 10 d'arrêt du moteur, à gauche sur la figure 2, sous l'action du bossage 55 et contre l'action du ressort 9. L'interrupteur 10 est connecté au circuit électronique de commande pour pouvoir provoquer le freinage et l'arrêt du moteur et du cylindre d'aiguillage.The
Sur le cylindre 5 est gravé un double chemin d'aiguillage A,B₃,B₂,B₁ et A,A₁,C₂,C₃ suivi par l'extrémité libre d'un palpeur 4 articulé,par son autre extrémité, sur la tête de la palette 2.On
Les deux chemins d'aiguillage du cylindre 5 s'étendent en partie circonférentiellement à la surface du cylindre, dans deux plans radiaux parallèles, avec néanmoins une portion radiale commune A, de distance angulaire ici sensiblement égale à 80°, entre les deux, se raccordant obliquement (B₃) aux portions circulaires écartées C₁,C₂,C₃ et B₂,B₁, de distance angulaire ici sensiblement égale à 180°.The two routing paths of the
En d'autres termes, le chemin d'aiguillage, depuis une portion radiale centrale A, se divise, en deux chemins parallèles radiaux B₁,B₂ et C₁,C₂, d'un côté, et B₃,B₂ et C₃,C₂, de l'autre côté.In other words, the referral path, from a central radial portion A, is divided into two parallel radial paths B₁, B₂ and C₁, C₂, on one side, and B₃, B₂ and C₃, C₂, of the other side.
A chacune des deux extrémités de la portion commune A de guidage, c'est-à-dire aux confluents des deux portions de guidage parallèles, l'un des chemins est ici légèrement surelevé pour former avec l'autre un redent 56 de guidage du palpeur 4 et éviter qu'il ne s'engage depuis la portion commune A sur le chemin surélevé, ce redent 56 n'empêchant par contre pas le palpeur 4 de passer du chemin surélevé à la portion commune A.At each of the two ends of the common guide portion A, that is to say at the confluence of the two parallel guide portions, one of the paths is here slightly raised to form with the other a
Quand le cylindre 5 tourne dans le sens de la flèche F₁ (figure 3), le palpeur suit le chemin A,C₁,C₂,C₃,A, et le palpeur 4, entre les portions A et C₁, fait pivoter la palette 2 pour dégager le couloir de circulation, laisser s'écouler la pièce de monnaie précédemment retenue et la guider par sa rampe inclinée correspondante dans le couloir d'entrée 11 du réceptacle (figure 2).When the
Quand le cylindre 5 tourne dans le sens de la flèche F₂ (figure 3), le palpeur suit le chemin A,B₃,B₂,B₁,A et fait pivoter la palette 2 dans l'autre sens pour guider par son autre rampe inclinée une pièce dans le couloir d'entrée 12 de le caisse (figure 2).When the
Ainsi, les pièces de monnaie s'écoulent bien une à une dans la caisse ou le réceptacle de renvoi.Thus, the coins flow well one by one in the case or the return receptacle.
Le fonctionnement du dispositif ainsi décrit peut maintenant être abordé.The operation of the device thus described can now be discussed.
Le palpeur 4 étant engagé dans la portion centrale A de la rainure de guidage du cylindre 5, le levier 7 étant repoussé par le bossage 55 du cylindre 5 et le moteur 6 étant, dans sa position normale d'arrêt, le circuit électronique de commande, commandé par le dispositif d'identification, lance le moteur 6 dans un sens, pour pouvoir, par exemple, et compte tenu de l'identification passée, évacuer la pièce 15 dans le couloir 12 de la caisse, donc ici dans le sens inverse des aiguilles d'une montre en regardant le cylindre 5 du tourillon 50 vers le tourillon 51 de la figure 2, soit dans le sens de la flèche F₂ de la figure 3. Le cylindre 5 entraîné par le moteur 6, fait alors un tour complet de 360°, jusqu'à ce que le bossage 55 revienne en contact avec le levier 7 et le repousse contre le levier de l'interrupteur 10 pour, par l'intermédiaire du circuit électronique de commande, freiner et arrêter le moteur 6. Pendant le parcours de la portion B₂ du chemin de guidage, le palpeur 4, qui a été repoussé vers le couloir de circulation 1, vers la droite sur la figure 2, et a fait pivoter la palette 2 vers la droite, a maintenu dégagé le couloir de caisse 12 pour permettre l'évacuation de la pièce 15, pendant que la tige 13 bloquait les autres pièces.The
Pour évacuer une pièce dans le couloir de réceptacle 11, le moteur 6 doit tourner dans l'autre sens et le cylindre 5 dans le sens de la flèche F₁, pour maintenir écarté le palpeur 4 du couloir de circulation 1 pendant le parcours de la portion de guidage C₂.To evacuate a part in the
Le palpeur 4 suivant toujours le chemin de guidage, ce dispositif est insensible aux chocs. Il est de réalisation simple, avec un minimum d'éléments et donc peu coûteux.The
On a décrit un cylindre d'aiguillage avec un chemin d'aiguillage gravé à sa surface. Mais ce chemin pourrait être défini autrement, par exemple deux petites bandes rapportées. De même, au lieu d'être en creux, le chemin d'aiguillage pourrait être en relief, l'extrémité du palpeur 4 étant alors, elle, en creux.A referral cylinder has been described with a referral path engraved on its surface. But this path could be defined differently, for example two small strips added. Likewise, instead of being hollow, the referral path could be in relief, the end of the
