PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To obtain a coin distribution state, a coin remaining state and the form of a remained foreign matter and to execute processing corresponding to detection information on a coin and the foreign matter at that time by detecting the held coil from plural detection positions and change-controlling the coin processing of a holding means based on plural detection signals. SOLUTION: Four first-fourth detection sensors S1-S4 are arranged against the inner space of a hopper 57 and they detect coins. The first detection sensor S1 detects an excessive charge state and the charge of a large foreign matter in an upper space and the second and third detection sensors S2 and S3 detect a remaining state after the coins are taken in at the back and the intermediate position of a feeder bottom part and the fourth detection sensor S4 detects/ recognizes the take-in state of the coins which are led into a feeder 44 at a take-in part in front of the feeder bottom part. A control means precisely grasps and manages the charge amount of the coins, the distribution state, the presence or absence of foreign matters and the forms of the foreign matters based on the combination of the plural detection signals. Therefor, processing can be change-controlled to sppropriate processing corresponding to this. |
