摘要

Sensors (A-D) each have an optical transmission element (OTE) and a light-sensitive receiving element (LSRE) on the same side of coin tubes (CT) (10). OTE light is reflected by a reflecting surface on an opposite side of the CT to the LSRE. An electronic control device (14) has tube counting devices (20-26) each assigned to CT for counting coins out and in and storing their counted values.
