A DEVICE FOR DISPENSING DISC-SHAPED OBJECTS, SUCH AS COINS

摘要

A device for transferring a flow of disc-shaped objects, such as coins, from a reservoir to a delivery location at a higher level. This device is provided with a coin guiding passage that has its bottom positioned in an inclined plane, said passage being connected to the reservoir through a passage position that has its longitudinal axis directed substantially horizontally and merging into a position that rises towards said delivery location through a curved action of substantially 90°. To prevent coins in the curved section from jamming or blocking, an upper wall portion is provided in the curved section, on coin thickness level above the bottom of the coin guiding passage, said upper wall position being capable of yielding relative to the passage bottom and being preferably in the form of a disc.
