ABSTRACT:
An outlet device for a coin payout hopper including an outlet chute having a curved outlet chute passage for upwardly pushing coins out of an upper outlet by trailing coins pushed into a lower inlet in the horizontal direction from the coin payout hopper. The outlet chute includes an outside edge plate having an outside coin guide track positioned at the outside with respect to the center of the radius of curvature of the curved outlet chute passage with the outside coin guide track being inclined to an acute angle to a coin supporting surface of a coin supporting back plate and an inside edge plate having an inside coin guide track positioned at the inside with respect to the center of the radius of curvature of the curved outlet chute passage. The inside edge plate is covered at the lower inlet portion thereof with a flexible front plate such that a portion of the flexible front plate is extended beyond the inside coin guide track to engage outer peripheral portions of coins, thereby preventing the curved outlet chute passage from jamming by a deformed coin. Furthermore, at least one rotatable tapered guide roller having an inverted conical surface is provided at the upper outlet portion adjacent to the inside edge plate and is urged to engage the outer periphery of the coin, thereby preventing the coin from rising above the coin supporting surface of the back plate.
