  • Patent number: 8371911
    Abstract: A coin handling machine 11 is provided in which when coins jam in a transport path 67 during coin transportation, coins jamming in the transport path 67 are automatically taken out and the state can be restored. Coins pooled in a feeding portion 31 are fed one by one to the transport path 67, and the coins in the transport path 67 are pushed and transported one by one by projections of the deposit transporting belt 70 of the transport path 67. When coins jam in the transport path 67 during coin transportation, driving of the feeding portion 31 is stopped, the discharge gate of the feeding portion 31 is opened, and the deposit transporting belt 70 is rotated in a direction opposite to a transporting direction. Coins jamming in the transport path 67 are returned to the feeding portion 31 by the deposit transporting belt 70, discharged downward from the discharge gate 62 of the feeding portion 31, and returned to a tray 20 of a dispensing outlet 19.
