Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a series of improvements introduced in coin control systems for automatic machines, that is, machines capable of supplying a product or service prior the introduction therein of a coin or collection of coins, the said improvements affecting both the coin validation systems and the systems for storing the coins and paying out prizes or returns.
  • a series of mechanisms such as a selector for detecting the passage of each coin, verifying the validity or invalidity thereof, and, as the case may be, valuating same, a classifier to separate coins of different values, channelling same towards a different receptacle, several storage boxes for coins of different values, designed to supply the said coins again towards the outside, generally for returns or "change", means for returning the coins introduced to the user when the machine is unable to supply the desired product, etc., are absolutely necessary.
  • the coin control system constitutes a compact device wherein the different elements comprising same can be assembled separately before definitive assembly of the whole system in any machine, the said elements adopting a rational distribution in order to achieve a smaller volume of ocupation, that is, to form a block of small dimensions, easy to install within any machine, and with optimum characteristics from a functional point of view.
  • the improvements proposed by the invention consist in the arrangement of the different operative elements of the control system within a rectangular prismatic and vertically elongated frame box, on the upper surface whereof there is provided and fitted an electronic coin selector, the access slot thereof projecting from the upper surface of the said frame box, as does the button for returning rejected coins, a classifier being provided immediately below the electronic selector to channel the different coins which may be introduced into the system towards different return mechanisms, as also towards the general collecting box of the machine, which will be joined to the said frame box through a suitable duct.
  • a temporary coin storage box which acts as a deposit for the coins introduced by the user of the machine until the latter supplies the desired product or service, returning the said coins in the event that the machine is unable to supply such product or service.
  • the selector (2) designed to receive, select and validate the coins, identifying each of them, discharges onto a classifier (8) provided within the frame (1) immediately below same, the purpose of the classifier being obviously to deviate the coins through different channels depending on the value of same, and preferably by means of the activation of electromagnets, an alphanumeric LCD display (9) being related to this classifier, which display is capable of showing messages and allows the performance of certain functions, the said display (9) being visible through a window operatively made in the cover of the frame box, not shown in the figures, at the same time as the buttons (10) for performing the said functions likewise emerge through respective openings in the cover.
  • the classifier (8) unloads onto a series of tubes (11) for storing the coins, corresponding to respective returns, each of which, and as is conventional, is provided with an engine, a gear box, an eccentric, an axle, and a gate, with respective supports for the coin storage tube, which tube is divided into various sections, such that whilst the lower section contains a card of emptying photodiodes, the upper section contains a card of filling photodiodes, though such elements have not been shown in the figures given that, as has been said, they are conventional and can be substituted by return mechanisms of any other type.
  • the repeatedly mentioned cover is provided, in correspondence with tubes (11) of the return mechanisms, with vertical slots which allow visual and direct control of the number of coins present therein.
  • a module (12) for temporary storage of coins which, as has already been said, allows the return of the coins introduced by the user in the event that the machine should be unable to supply the desired product or service.
  • the said module (12) provides the advantage that it renders greater autonomy for change in the system, given that if any person introduces a coin which does not usually enter the return tubes and the machine is lacking the desired product, or, in other words, purchase of such product cannot take place, in a machine lacking this module the coins would pass into the collecting tin or box, and the user would thus be unable to recover the coins, and this does not occur with module (12), since same stores temporarily and specifically the coins which have just been introduced by the user.
  • the system likewise includes the necessary plate which controls all the elements and accounts of sales and coins collected, to subsequently download such information onto a printer or computer.
