ABSTRACT:
A coin delivering apparatus includes a coin escalator having a coin passage where coins advance in a row. A gate is provided at a side wall of the coin passage for opening and closing a portion of the side wall. A coin delivering unit is further provided to deliver the coins toward an inlet of the coin passage in sequence. When the gate is closed, the coins delivered by the coin delivering unit advance into the coin passage via the inlet thereof and are forced out from an outlet of the coin passage. When the gate is opened while no coins are delivered by the coin delivering unit, the coins remaining in the coin passage are transferred by the coin delivering unit to a coin collecting opening to be discharged therethrough. On the other hand, when the gate is opened while the coins are delivered by the coin delivering unit, the coins delivered by the coin delivering unit are first transferred to the coin collecting opening to be discharged therethrough on a preferential basis prior to the coins remaining in the coin passage.
