ABSTRACT:
Herein disclosed is a coin handling apparatus which is free from having its coin guide passage from being jammed with coins when the supply of any more coins is to be stopped. The coin handling apparatus is of the type including, as customary, a rotary disc, a guide passage, a conveyor belt and a coin stacking cylinder. The coin handling apparatus is improved to include a rotary stop pin disposed in the guide passage for normally opening the guide passage and for closing the same thereby to block the succeeding coins, a rotary solenoid for controlling the opening and closing operations of the stop pin, a detecting device for detecting the coin, which is to pass therethrough in the guide passage, thereby to generate two outputs, a coin stop control unit for operating a controlled stop signal in accordance with both the outputs of the detecting device and a stop signal, and a drive circuit for driving the rotary solenoid in accordance with the controlled stop signal thereby to effect the closing operation of the rotary stop pin. The detecting device has a pair of photo-sensors for optically detecting the position of the coin just passing therethrough, and a coin detecting unit connected with the photo-sensors for converting the position of the coin into a binary logic level.
