<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To enable continuous feeding of tokens more smoothly while considering token jamming. <P>SOLUTION: A feeding port unit includes: a depth sidewall part and a front sidewall part which form a token feeding port which drops tokens in a vertical posture; and a guide groove which is extended from the front side of the token feeding port to the token feeding port, and on which tokens are placed, and which is slanted downward to the token feeding port so as to guide the tokens to the token feeding port. The front sidewall part has: a lower sidewall part; an upper sidewall part farther from the depth sidewall part than the lower sidewall part; and a step part for connecting the upper sidewall part and the lower sidewall part. In the end sidewall part, a plurality of projection parts extended in the vertical direction are formed in the horizontal direction, and among the plurality of projection parts, width of a central projection part positioned in the center in the horizontal direction is larger than each of widths of the other projection parts and has a front surface of a flat surface. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
