When troubles such as refilling of coins into the coin tube and coin clogging are eliminated, the entire coin storage unit is mounted on the coin processing device main body. When the coin is removed from the front and the coin replenishment operation or the like is completed, the entire coin storage device is fitted into the coin processing device main body from the front side of the coin processing device main body. In addition, a detection switch is provided on the main body of the coin processing device as means for detecting the attachment / detachment of the coin storage device. When the coin storage device is detached, the coin storage process is prohibited. When mounted on the main body, it is configured to execute coin storage processing.

There are various types having different specifications, such as different types of stored coins and different types of coins. On the other hand, since the appearance of these coin storage devices is substantially similar, coin storage devices having different specifications may be mistakenly mounted. At this time, the detection switch only determines whether or not the coin storage device is attached, and does not have a structure for determining whether or not the coin storage device has a desired specification. Immediately instructed execution of coin processing, and could not avoid erroneous mounting of the coin storage device.

When the specification of the coin processing device does not correspond to the specification of the coin storage device, the coin processing of the coin processing device can be prevented from being executed. On the other hand, when both specifications correspond, coin processing can be executed. Further, since the detected member is provided integrally with the coin storage device, the number of components and the number of assembling steps can be reduced.

By enabling the specification to be determined even when only 3 is turned on, a total of seven types of coin storage devices can be determined. Of course, the detection switches 401, 4
When the number of 02, 403 is increased, the number of specification determinations is further increased.

組み付け工数を減らすことができる。As described above, according to the present invention,
In addition to detecting whether or not the coin storage device is mounted, it is also possible to detect whether or not the specifications of the coin storage device correspond to the specifications of the coin processing device. Further, since the detected member is provided integrally with the coin storage device, the number of components and the number of assembling steps can be reduced.

け性も向上する。When the detection switch is installed on the wiring board of the change dispensing device, the lead wire of the detection switch and the lead wire of the change dispensing device are connected to the same wiring substrate, and the wiring substrate is shared. Wiring can be easily routed, the number of components can be reduced, and the assemblability can be improved.

り、各検知スイッチの検知精度が向上する。Further, since the detection switches and the detection target members are disposed substantially horizontally so as to face each other, when the detection switches are mounted on the coin storage device and the coin processing device main body, the detection target members are equally set with respect to the detection switches. As a result, the detection accuracy of each detection switch is improved.
