  • Patent number: 4176670
    Abstract: A storing and feeding device for coins comprises a tube having an end that widens toward the outside, with retainers at the widened end of the tube for retaining the coins. The tube is slidably mounted on a support that has resilient pads that widen the retainers to free the coins. The coins, in turn, have a packaging comprising an opening strip and a sealing flange. The opening strip is accessible from outside the tube through a longitudinal opening in its wall.

  • Patent number: 4126147
    Abstract: A coin dispenser sequentially dispenses coins of different denominations, starting with the highest and dispensing the maximum number possible in each denomination. A plurality of stacks of coins are arranged in side-by-side relationship with a continuously rotating cylinder below them common to all the stacks. A plurality of pegs are radially slidable on and relative to the cylinder and are arranged in helical fashion, one peg per stack. Cam and ratchet mechanism is provided for selectively advancing the peg associated with the denomination of coin to be dispensed, when that peg is below its associated stack, the peg being raised during as many revolutions of the cylinder as are necessary to dispense the required number of coins of that denomination.

  • Patent number: 4111216
    Abstract: The invention relates to a coin sorting machine comprising a rotary plate, a funnel located in the central portion of the plate, a peripheral shoulder which prevents the coins from leaving the rotary plate as well as at least one station for the selection and extraction of one coin denomination from the remaining coin denominations.This machine is characterized in that each selection station comprises on the one hand structure permitting a movement of at least part of a coin beneath the upper surface of the plate and on the other hand a coin-contacting element which comes into contact with a coin to be selected lying flat on the rotary plate, and pushes the radially inner part of the coin below the upper surface of the plate so that the radially outer part of the coin is tipped up and clears the shoulder and the coin is ejected by centrifugal force over the shoulder, without tumbling.This machine permits a very rapid sorting of a store of loose coins.
