ABSTRACT:
The invention provides an apparatus for sorting various kinds of coins into various categories of coins. To this end, the invention includes a semicircular member having a plane surface and an arc surface. The semicircular member is capable of rotating between a first position wherein the plane surface is disposed substantially in the plane defined by a guiding edge and the arc surface is disposed within a guide rail and a second position wherein the plane surface is disposed normal to the guiding edge and the arc surface faces towards the upstream of the coin feeding direction. The semicircular member rotates from the first position to the second position when a first group coin is fed to collide with the semicircular member so as to diverge the coin away from the guiding edge so that the circumferential end of the coin closest to the guiding edge is disposed on a sort-out opening. The semicircular member returns to the first position when the coin passes the semicircular member.
