Abstract: A coin processing apparatus houses received coins for each denomination of the coins and dispenses the housed coins in accordance with a coin output instruction. The coin processing apparatus includes: a conveyance unit that conveys the coins that are received and stored in an input section upwards one by one along a predetermined conveyance path, allows authenticity and a denomination of each coin to be checked by a checking section while the coin is conveyed, sorts the coins checked to be true coins by denomination, and dispenses the coin checked to be a false coin; and a coin output suspending unit that receives the coin dispensed from the conveyance unit, outputs the received coin from a dispensing outlet when a coin output command is given, and feeds the received coin to the input section when a feeding command is given.

Abstract: A coin processing apparatus determines an authenticity and a type of a received coin, holds a coin, which is determined to be an authentic coin, and then sorts and stores the coin for each type of coin and that further pays a stored coin in response to a coin drawing command. The coin processing apparatus includes a conveyor that conveys the coin. The conveyor includes a screw-type conveying member including a cylindrical shaft section, and a blade section provided on an outer circumference of the cylindrical shaft section in a helical fashion and protruding in a radial direction. The screw-type conveying member is rotated around a central axis of the shaft section so that a coin is conveyed.

Abstract: In a coin processing apparatus including a plurality of coin containers, each of the coin containers includes a housing guide and a screw-type conveyance member. The housing guide has both side sections paired in a left-right direction. The housing guide has lateral protrusions formed on inner surfaces of the paired side sections and protruding to extend close to each other. The screw-type conveyance member has a shaft having a cylindrical shape and a blade member spirally provided on an outer periphery of the shaft such that the blade member protrudes outward from the outer periphery, and is provided to the housing guide such that a part of the shaft and a part of the blade protrude upward in a space between the lateral protrusions and may rotate about a central axis of the shaft. The screw-type conveyance member is provided at an off-center position of the housing guide.
