Definitions
- the present invention refers to a coin refunder for paying mechanisms, installed in machines or apparatus activated by means of coins, such as vending machines, games machines, etc.
- Coin refunders for the purpose indicated comprise a container chamber or deposit for coins equipped with a coin extractor mechanism and a counting system for the supplied coins.
- Refunding machines are known in which said mechanism is constituted based on an ascending chain, the links of which are configurated for dragging each one, and supplying a coin coming from the container chamber.
- refunders which include disks with through holes, which operate in the manner of tube payers.
- One and all of the refunders are excessively voluminous, due to which, their installation presents problems of space.
- the oldest and most traditional refunders use, as the coin extractor mechanism, a rotary disk which constitutes the bottom of a side of the chamber of container deposit for the coins, the disk of which is provided on its internal surface with circumferential distribuiting pivots in concentric position with the disk.
- the pivots constitute the elements which are in charge of dragging the coins towards the out-put mouth, during the rotation of the disk.
- This mechanism presents jamming problems and is in addition not very multi-coin, that is to say, that it can admit a very limited variety of coins of different sizes.
- the rotary disk can be provied with recesses or formations which are capable of acting as bearing for the dragging of the coins.
- U.S.A. publication of US 5,295,900 makes reference to a coin dispensing device comprising a hopper where a supply of coins is held in bulk. The coins are transported one by one on a coin dispensing disc rotatably supported by a rotary shaft for use in dispensing a coin. A base plate is opposed to the coin dispensing disc at a predetermined distance.
- the coin dispensing device also comprises guide holes penetrating through the coin dispensing disc. Each of the guide holes receives one of agitating members which travels along a predetermined orbit on the base plate accompanying with rotation of the coin dispensing disc. An extrusion member is disposed on the base plate along the orbit.
- the extrusion member has a predetermined relative height to the base plate to make a portion of the agitating member be protruded as the agitating protruding end, through the guide holes from the coin dispensing disc when the agitating member passes on the extrusion member along the orbit.
- EP 0 345 868 refers to a coin dispensing apparatus comprising a hopper for holding a supply of coins in bulk and a coin transporting rotary disc rotatably disposed within the hopper for delivering coins from the hopper, a carrier having a plurality of coin transporting pins and/or agitating members spaced apart in the circumferential direction is rotatably supported at the rear side of the rotary disc to rotate at an angle to the rotary disc such as to extend the coin transporting pins and/or agitating members into the hopper from the surface of the rotary disc in a minimum amount at a position of a delivery portion and in a maximum amount at a coin picking up position, whereby a coin dispensing efficiency is remarkably improved without miscounting and jamming of coin at the delivery portion.
- the object of the invention is to solve the indicated problems, by means of a refunder which includes a coin extractor mechanism with relatively reduced volume, which admits a wide variety of coins of different sizes and that does not present jamming problems.
- the refunder of the invention is of the traditional type, that is to say, it is comprised of a chamber or deposit with a zone including a rotary disk equipped with dragging means for the coins and is characterized in that said dragging means are constituted by retractile blades, preferably radial, which project through the internal surface of the disk in contact with the coins to be dragged, and are displaceable between an extracted position, in which they partially project from the surface of the disk and are capable of dragging the coins, and a retracted position, in which they do not project as regards the surface of the disk.
- the blades are elastically impulsed towards the extracted position and are displaceable towards the retracted position when they reach the arm which intercepts the circular path of the disk or the adjacent areas of said arms.
- the blades can be impulsed towards the retracted position by means of different systems, for example, by the actual arm which intercepts the circular path of the coins or by means of an activation device which acts on the blades when it reaches the adjacent areas of the arm which intercepts the circular path of the coins.
- the invention is based on the existence of retractile blades, which in their extracted position drag the coins towards the arm which intercepts the circular path of the same, at which moment they occupy the retracted position in order to be displaced under said arm, thus not constituting any obstacle for the continuation of the rotation of the disk.
- the blades are circumferentially separated from each other by a slightly larger magnitud than the diameter of the maximum sized coin. With this constitution, the blades can drag any size of coin without producing additional jamming of coins, since each blade can act only on the edge of a coin, abutting against the surface of the disk.
- Figures 1 through 4 represent a rotary disk 1 which defines a zone of the surface of a receiver chamber or deposit for coins, of constitution known per se.
- disk 1 is toothed around its periphery 2 in order to mesh with an activating pinion, though other systems or activating means could be used.
- Disk 1 is mounted on a support 4 in which a flat arm or small blade 5 are attached, which bear on the internal surface of the disk.
- a tilting lever 6 is mounted, the out-put mouth for the coins being defined between the same and the adjacent edge of the arm or small blade 5.
- Disk 1 is provided with dragging means for the coins 3 when it rotates in direction to arrow F.
- the arm or small blade 5 intercepts the circular path of the coins 3, displacing them towards the out-put mouth limited between said small blade and the tilting lever 6, which is pushed towards a retracted position by the actual coins, recovering its original position after the exit of said coin.
- the refunder of the invention is characterized by the special constitution of the dragging means of the coins in disk 1.
- these dragging means are constituted by retractile radial blades 7 which partially project through the surface in contact with the coins, and preferably run in radial direction, such as is shown in figure 2.
- the blades 7 are displaced between an extracted position, shown in figure 2 and 4, in which they partially project from the surface of disk 1 and a retracted position, in which they do not project as regards the internal surface of the disk.
- the blades are elastically impulsed towards the extracted position and are displaced towards the retracted position when they reach the arm or small blade 5 or the proximity of the same.
- blades 7 form part of a plate 8 with elbowed profile which is provided on the section which runs below disk 1, of a transversal core 9 which is placed between parallel lugs 10 of an adjacent bridge 11 and attached to the rotary disk 1.
- Core 9 articulates between lugs 10 by means of shaft 12.
- the plate 8 and the bridge 11 extend in portions 13 and 14 between which a helical spring 15 is mounted, which impulses the blades 7 towards the extracted position shown in figure 2 and 4.
- Support 4 on which disk 1 is mounted forms, in the proximity of the arm or small blade 5, a ramp 16, figure 2 on which the prolongation 13 of plate 8 of the blades bear, when they reach said proximity of the small blade 5, causing the tilting of the plate 8 in the direction of arrow G of figure 2, producing the retraction of blade 7, thus preventing its impact with theedge of the arm or small blade 5, in such a manner, that it does not constitue an obstacle for the continuation of the rotation of disk 1.
- the ramp 16, which acts as a cam for the activation of blades 7, is placed in such a manner that the retraction or concealment of the blades 7 takes place once the coin 3, dragged by said blade, has caused the displacment of the tilting arm 6, figure 1, so as to conduct its exit in traditional manner.
- blades 7 shall drag coins 3 until they exit through the mouth limited between the small blade 5 and the arm 6, thus occupying the retraction position before reaching the edge of the small blade 5. Once they surpass the arm or the small blade 5, blades 7 are impulsed towards the extracted position by means of spring 15.
- blades 7 can be achieved by any other system or mechanism.
- the blades 7 could be articulated under disk 1 according to a perpendicular shaft to said blade, being impulsed towards the outside by means of a spring and hence occupying the retracted position when bearing on a profile or cam similar to the one referenced with number 16 in figure 2.
- FIGS 5 through 7 show another possible manner of actuation on the blades 7 in order to cause its retraction.
- blades 7 also form part of a right angled elbowed plate and are impulsed towards the extracted position by means of a spring 15a which is mounted between the section of the blade which runs below the rotary disk 1 and a disk or locking plate 17, both attached by means of screws 18.
- the blades 7 extend as from their internal end into a section 7a which is adjacent to the central cone 18 of the refunder. Said section 7a is of decreasing height, until it reaches the surface of the rotary disk 1.
- the refunder of the invention is provided with counting means of the coins supplied or paid.
- Said means may consist of a detector mounted at the out-put mouth, limited between the small blade 5 and the tilting lever 6, or constituted by the actual lever 6.
