2. Description of the Related Art In general, a coin sorting apparatus of this type includes a substantially upright substrate, a flapper disposed opposite to the substrate with an interval corresponding to the thickness of one coin, and either a substrate or a flapper. A coin track is formed by a rail attached to one side and a rail on which the coin rolls.The coin track is swung by a regular coin that rolls and falls on the coin track, and is swingably supported by a substrate to eliminate a lightweight pseudo coin. It has a lightweight sorting lever. And, in order to prevent the illegal sorting by tilting the device in the coin rolling direction and swinging the lightweight sorting lever even with lightweight pseudo coins, this kind of coin sorting device has a lightweight sorting lever. Separately, a return lever pivotally supported on the substrate is provided. When the device is tilted, the return lever protrudes into the coin orbit to return coins to the return orbit, and is arranged behind the lightweight lever to lock the swing of the lightweight lever. The lever returned the coins to the return orbit.

Next, among the coins that have passed through the outer diameter sorting unit 9, the magnetized pseudo-magnetic coin A 3 is attracted by the magnet 11 disposed at the upper end of the outer diameter sorting unit 9, and has a rolling speed. Is decelerated, and enters the slit 34 with the upper end being sucked upward and the lower end separated from the coin rail 7. For this reason, as shown in FIG. 2, the pseudo magnetic coin A 3 that has entered the slit 34 collides with the projection 35 at the upper end, and is prevented from rolling, and the projection 35 causes the rolling direction to be opposite to the rolling direction. , Falls obliquely downward, and is returned from the return path 59 from the second overflow path 57.
In this manner, the rolling coin is decelerated and the projection 35
Since the rolling direction of the coin is changed by colliding the coin, the pseudo magnetic coin can be surely guided to the return orbit. In addition, since the magnet 11 is arranged at the upper part of the coin orbit and sucks the coin so as to apply a rotating moment opposite to the rotating direction of the rolling coin to the coin, it is more than simply deceleration by suction. The rolling speed of the coin is reduced, and a more reliable sorting operation can be obtained.

Next, among the coins having entered the slit 34, light pseudo coin A 4 is strikes the lever 36,
It does not have kinetic energy greater than the biasing force of the counterclockwise rotation of the lever 36 by the magnet 38. Therefore, the lever 36 rolls and falls in a direction opposite to the rolling direction, and the pseudo magnetic Like the coin, the coin is guided to the second overflow trajectory 57. On the other hand, when the regular coin A 5 , that is, the 10 yen coin, collides with the lever 36, the genuine coin A has more kinetic energy than the counterclockwise rotation urging force of the lever 36 by the magnet 38. As a result, the entrance 50 below the lever 36

[0021] Here, by inclining the coin sorting apparatus 1 in the rolling direction, by increasing the rolling speed of the coins to intentionally rotates the lightweight pseudo coin A 4 Nevertheless lever 36, the second A case where unauthorized accumulation is to be performed in the accumulation track 51 will be described. When the coin sorting device 1 is tilted in the rolling direction and the substrate 3 is tilted by α or more, as shown in FIG. 4, the lower surface plate 41 supporting the disk 45 is lowered rightward in the figure, and the disk 45 is guided by the rib 41 and the side plate 43,
As shown in (b), the lower surface plate 41 rolls in the guide space 44a to advance into the coin orbit from the window 39, and the leading end is located behind the lever 36 to lock the lever 36. Therefore, since the rotation of the lever 36 is locked by the disc 41, when the coin sorting device 1 is tilted, all coins passing through the lever 36 are returned to the second overflow path 57 and returned to the illegal operation. Has been prevented.

As described above, when the coin sorting device 1 is tilted, the disc 45 serves as a member for preventing the rotation of the lever 36.
And the use of the rolling of the disk 45, the response to the inclination is good, and thereby the fraud can be reliably prevented, and the adjustment of the response to the inclination is not required.
In addition, since the lower plate 41, the upper plate 42, the side plate 43, and the ribs 44, which are members for holding the disk 45, are formed integrally with the second side plate 40, there is no need to assemble them, and therefore the number of parts is reduced. Thus, the assembling time can be significantly reduced.

As described above, the coin sorting apparatus according to the present invention is provided with a lightweight sorting lever that is swingably supported by the board and removes the lightweight pseudo coin, and the board has a vertical sorting lever behind the lightweight sorting lever. A window extending in the direction is provided, and a guide space is provided with the window as an exit. The lower surface member is formed on an inclined surface opposite to the rolling direction of the coin, and includes a disk rotatably supported by the lower surface member and housed in the guide space. Usually, the disk is a lower surface member. When the substrate is tilted in the coin rolling direction along the guide space, it rotates along the lower surface member, protrudes from the window, is located behind the lightweight sorting lever, locks the lever and returns coins And for the inclination of the substrate, Since so as to rotate along the plate on a lower surface member, responsiveness is good, and therefore, improve the sorting accuracy can be improved. Also, since the left and right side members and the upper and lower surface members forming the guide space for accommodating the disc are integrally formed,
Assembling and adjustment become unnecessary, and the number of parts can be reduced and the assembling time can be significantly reduced.
