ABSTRACT:
An improved bulk vending machine coin mechanism and counter combination is provided. The counter/combination has a coin mechanism designed to be partially received into an opening in the bulk vending machine, the coin mechanism comprising a selectively rotatable shaft extending axially therefrom, a coin counter attached to a portion of said coin mechanism within the opening of the bulk vending machine, the counter comprising a numeric display and a contact switch assembly, comprising a first pair of spaced-apart wires at a first location of the switch assembly, the first pair of wires connected to the numeric display by a lead wire and to a capacitor by another lead wire, a second pair of spaced-apart wires at a second location of the switch assembly, the second pair of wires connected at least to the capacitor by yet another lead wire, a selectively rotatable element having a metal strip attached thereto, the metal strip able to connect both of the wires of both of the first and second pairs of said spaced-apart wires at separate and distinct positions during the selective rotation of the selectively rotatable element, wherein the shaft causes the selectively rotatable element to rotate bringing the metal strip first in contact with the first pair of spaced-apart wires and then in contact with the second pair of spaced-apart wires, thereby causing the counter to advance one sequential count.
