<p>There is disclosed a coin wrapping machine in which coins of a particular denomination are fed into a hopper from which they are conveyed to a coin count module. The coin count module ejects the coins one at a time, counting them as they are ejected, until a predetermined quantity has been reached. The ejected coins are directed to a stationary, removable coin tube having a central bore whose diameter is sized for the particular denomination of coins. Paper from a roll is fed to the coin tube to surround the stack of coins formed in the tube and a wrapping roller is brought to bear to wrap the paper about the coin stack. Crimper blades are extended into the coin tube and actuated to crimp the ends of the paper tube formed about the coin stack. The completed coin roll is dropped through an opening in a floor upon which the coin tube is seated, and the discharge of a roll is sensed by a door in a discharge chute. The discharge chute also detects the presence of loose coins indicating an improper roll having been formed. The opening in the floor is normally closed by a coin pad, and a coin stool extends through the pad to support the bottom of the stack for positioning of the stack and to vibrate the stack to assist in settling of the coins. The operation is continuous, and is triggered by the discharge of a roll. The machine is set up for a different denomination of coin by adjusting the coin count module, replacing the coin tube with one sized for the new denomination, and replacing the paper roll with paper sized for the new denomination.</p> |
