  • Publication number: 20200357216
    Abstract: A coin processing unit includes a control unit that causes a coin dispensing unit to dispense a prescribed number of coins in a plurality of times according to the total volume of the coins or the prescribed number of coins. Therefore, the coin processing unit is able to dispense a prescribed number of coins from the coin dispensing unit in a plurality of times according to the total volume of the coins or the prescribed number of coins. As a result, the coins dispensed from the coin dispensing unit to the coin transport unit are carried to an outlet port through the coin transport unit, without getting stuck in the coin transport unit, and are discharged to a coin receptacle.
