ABSTRACT:
An improved agitator for a coin hopper having a rotatable pinwheel includes a hub mounted to the pinwheel and a plurality of elongated, longitudinally resilient blades projecting radially outward from the hub. The hub is preferably made of neoprene or other flexible material, and is mounted to the center of the plate so that the two rotate together. The blades are preferably made of spring steel or similar material and are not themselves attached to the pinwheel, but are embedded in the hub. The blades have hard, low friction surfaces, and longitudinally yield upon impact with the coins in the hopper and act to stir the coins and urge them into coin receiving slots on the pinwheel.
