Abstract: A coin sorting apparatus includes a stationary member and a rotary disk member arranged under the stationary member. The stationary member has a guide structure for guiding coins, and the guide structure includes a coin passage and at least one coin-sorting guide. Each coin-storing guide has a step arranged so that a peripheral portion of a coin having a diameter greater than a reference diameter runs up onto the step.

Abstract: A coin sorting apparatus has a passage member provided with an ejecting hole and a guide member extended on a passage surface of the passage member. A conveyor belt holds coins together with the passage surface to convey coins along the guide member. A support roller is disposed under an ejecting hole opposite to the conveyor belt. The ejecting hole is contiguous with the guide member and has a guiding slide wall that extends obliquely away from the guide member toward a downstream side of the passage member. The support roller can be turned between a coin-passing position where its upper end is at a level not lower than that of the upper edge of the guiding side wall and a coin ejecting position where the upper end is at a level lower than that of the upper edge of the guiding side wall.

Abstract: The present invention relates to a coin sorting apparatus comprising a stationary member, and a rotary disk supported for rotation and disposal under the stationary member contiguously with a lower surface of the stationary member. The coin sorting apparatus is constructed such that coins slide along the lower surface of the stationary member as the rotary disk rotates, and such that these sliding coins are guided into a coin passage. The apparatus is adapted to receive coins including a deformed coin bent such that a convex side thereof faces the lower surface of the stationary member. The coin passage has a recessed-profile configured to accommodate the convex side of the deformed coin to ensure engagement of an outer edge of the deformed coin with a radial inner edge portion of the coin passage.

Abstract: A coin sorting apparatus (S) has a presorting unit (A) and two main sorting units (B1, B2). The presorting unit (A) sorts mixed coins into three groups (large coin group, medium coin group, small coin group). The main sorting units (B1, B2) sort by denomination coins of the two groups (medium coin group, small coin group) among the three groups of coins broadly sorted by the presorting unit (A). Thus, the number of denominations to be dealt with by a single sorting operation can be reduced.

Abstract: A coin sorting machine includes a coin guide structure (3) that conveys coins (C) on a passage surface (30) along a guide member (32), and a conveyor belt (43) extended so as to hold coins (C) on the passage surface (30) and capable of conveying the coins (C). An exclusion hole (60) is formed in the passage surface contiguously with the guide member. The exclusion hole has a guide side wall (60a) extending away from the guide member toward the downstream side. A support roller member (62) is disposed below the exclusion hole opposite to the conveyor belt. The support roller member can be selectively set at a coin-passing position where a top part thereof is on a level not lower than that of an upper end of the guide side wall of the exclusion hole and a coin-excluding position where the top part thereof is on a level lower than that of the upper end of the guide side wall of the exclusion hole.
