ABSTRACT:
In the present sorting mechanism, coins of mixed denomination roll edgewise down an inclined channel toward a static coin deflector that contains a plurality of deflection-edges. These deflection-edges are distinctly curved and elevated at different predetermined distances above an extended surface. Coins of the smallest diameter roll underneath the deflector into a particular routing channel; coins of each larger diameter are selectively engaged by one of the deflection-edges and directed across this extended surface into their proper routing channel. The present mechanism implements a controlled form of diameter-dependent angular deflection which separates and routes a plurality of coin denominations in a space-efficient manner.
