ABSTRACT:
A coin selecting and counting machine of reduced size, in which a plurality of coin selecting units are stacked one above another to have a common axis so that coins having the larger diameters may be selected step by step by the higher coin selecting units. The coins thus selected in accordance with their various denominations can be selectively deposited into different containers after their respective numbers have been counted. Each of the coin selecting units includes a rotatable disc made rotatable on the common axis, a separating ring arranged in a stationary position coaxially above the rotatable disc and partially removed to form a coin outlet opening, a coin selecting path leads from this opening and coin selecting rails are arranged at both sides of the path for selecting such coins having a diameter larger than a preset level. Also disclosed is a coin counting mechanism having a star wheel for counting the number of the selected coins, and a coin guiding path for guiding the coins, these coins have diameters smaller than the preset level as fail to be selected by the selecting rails and pass onto the rotating disc of the unit of the next stage positioned below.
