CHAINING POST WITH COIN SELECTION MECHANISM

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide an inexpensive capture post capable of coping with a plurality of coin sorts and a plurality of coins only from one charging port by using simple mechanical structure. SOLUTION: The chaining post 1 is locked by locking an inserted lock rod 10 and unlocked by depressing a push rod 11 after charging 1st and 2nd coins. A charging guide 16 is arranged on the inside of the charging port 8 to which a coin having the size of the 1st coin or smaller is charged and a selection hole 18a for dropping a coin less than the size of the 1st coin to a return port 9 is formed. An arm 20 is driven after charging and holding the 1st coin into/at a coin guide member 22. A selector 19 is driven by the arm 20, blocks part of the charging port 8 and the selection hole 18a so that only a coin having the size of the 2nd coin or smaller can be charged from the charging port 8 and a coin smaller than the 2nd coin is dropped to the return port 9 by the selection hole 18a.
