Process and device for the testing and sorting out of knurled coins

摘要

The invention relates to a process for testing and sorting out coins knurled in the edge region in a coin-testing device. The object of the invention is the detection and sorting out of the knurled coins. The object is achieved in that sufficient kinetic energy is taken from a rolling knurled coin (1), guided in a coin channel, by a catching lever (5) projecting into the coin channel and acting on the edge region of the coin to ensure that the coin does not overcome a hurdle (7) arranged at the end of the coin channel and falls into the sorting-out channel. <IMAGE>
