ABSTRACT:
A coin sorter has the capability to sort an additional size of coin by means of an exit chute which extends through a side of a coin hopper. A rotating pickup plate having notches for coins along its periphery rotates in an inclined plane within the hopper. Coins of certain denominations will fall through a coin opening at the apex of the rotating pickup plate and will fall into coin slots of diminishing width provided in a rotating core. The coins are held at a level peculiar to their size and are directed to discharge chutes and collection points for each denomination. Coins of the denomination which is larger than that which can pass through the coin opening are lifted from a notch by a plow positioned in front of the entrance to the exit chute and the coins travel through the chute outwardly of the hopper to a collection point. A switch actuator arm is positioned in the path of travel of the larger size coins prior to their entry into the exit chute. The apparatus may be provided as a kit of parts to convert existing sorters to handle an additional denomination of coin.
