Coin dispensing apparatus.

摘要

A coin dispensing apparatus which quickly and reliably collects coins remaining in an escalator 17 has a coin transporting disc 4 which can be rotated in reverse by a motor 5. Coin guide apertures 8 in the disc guide coins A onto a substrate 2. A coin transporting arm 9 is located between the substrate 2 and the disc 4, and rotates in forward and reverse together with the disc. A coin dropping onto the substrate 2 through an aperture 8 slides along a path of rotation on the substrate. During reverse rotation the transporting arm 9 dispenses a coin towards collection outlet 40. Reciprocating guide member 50 is located between the substrate 2 and the disc 4, and is provided between outlet slot 10 and collection outlet 40. This reciprocating guide member 50 makes contact with a dispensed coin to guide it to the collection outlet. <IMAGE>
