Definitions

  • the invention relates to a coin validator according to the preamble of claim 1.
  • Electronic coin validators mainly work with inductive and / or optical probes.
  • a magnet coil is usually part of an oscillator, and its magnetic field interacts with the coin rolling along the coin path. This results in damping of the oscillator circuit with corresponding changes in amplitude, frequency and phase position.
  • the frequency or phase change is used to measure the measured value to compare a target value so that, if necessary, a false certificate or an impermissible foreign coin is eliminated.
  • a coin validator has become known with a coin channel which has an approximately vertical section.
  • a magnetic coil is assigned to this section, which is held by a holding device which is attached to the track carrier.
  • the holding device enables the yoke of the magnetic coil to be adjusted into or away from the coin channel in order to adapt to different coin sizes.
  • the magnetic field is directed so that it is approximately perpendicular to the coin surfaces in the edge area of the coins.
  • Optical sensors work as a light barrier, which is crossed by the rolling coin.
  • optical sensors are also known which detect the light reflected by a coin, for example for determining a specific coin edge, such as knurling.
  • the diameter of the coins is a typical parameter.
  • Optical and inductive sensors are also used for diameter measurement.
  • the effective coil area is aimed at the embossing and the covered area is evaluated.
  • the nature of the material is naturally also included in the measured value, depending on the choice of frequency.
  • a different or larger diameter of the disc to be tested can be simulated.
  • the coin passes through at least two or more photo galleries or light barriers, and the times which pass from the passage of one route to the passage of the other route are determined, since these times represent an indicator of the diameter.
  • the magnetic coil is arranged below the coin track so that the magnetic field interacts with the coin edge.
  • the direction of the main field of the magnetic coil or the effective coil surface is arranged such that the magnetic field direction is perpendicular to the coin edge.
  • the coin edge is therefore “viewed” in a targeted manner.
  • the frequency is chosen so that the magnetic field penetrates the material of the coin.
  • a so-called skin effect is obtained from a certain frequency, in which the magnetic field no longer penetrates significantly into the material of the coin. If a low frequency is selected, a more or less deep penetration takes place instead, so that the material of the coin is also recorded.
  • the coin rim now consists of non-magnetic material, this results in a relatively large air gap between the material adapted to the real coin and the magnetic coil, which has a corresponding effect on the damping. If the coin edge of the coin to be checked has been turned off, this leads to a more intensive interrelation between the coil and the coin material compared to a knurled coin, which can also be detected.
  • the shape of the edge of the coin, the material of the edge of the coin, its thickness and its knurling are detected, so that a large number of manipulated disks and coins can be discriminated.
  • the magnetic coil is sunk in a lateral approach of the track carrier.
  • the magnetic coil in a lateral opening of the lateral extension are inserted, whereby according to a further embodiment of the invention it projects beyond the free end of the extension and protrudes into a recess in the main plate. It is thereby achieved that the axis of the effective coil surface lies approximately in the center plane of the coin channel, the bottom of which is delimited by the raceway.
  • Fig. 1 shows schematically the side view of a coin validator according to the invention.
  • Fig. 2 shows a section through the representation of Fig. 1 along the line 2-2.
  • a coin validator not shown, has a track 10 on which a coin 12 rolls.
  • a magnet coil 14 with a winding 16 is arranged below the track. From the winding 16 it can be seen that the effective coil surface is turned towards the edge of the coin 12.
  • Fig. 2 From Fig. 2 it can be seen that the coil 14 in one lateral approach 18 of a track carrier 20 is arranged, which is attached to a main plate 22.
  • the track carrier 20 is normally articulated and can be pivoted away from the main plate 22.
  • the coil 14 extends beyond the free end of the extension 18 and engages in a recess in the main plate 22.
  • the axis of the effective coil surface is approximately in the center plane of the channel, which is formed by the raceway carrier 20, the main plate 22 and the raceway 10.
  • the coil 14 is part of an oscillator, not shown, the parameters of which change when a coin approaches the coil 14.
  • the oscillating circuit of the oscillator is damped, which can be detected with the aid of a suitable evaluation circuit, also not shown.
  • the magnetic field vibrating at a certain frequency interacts with the edge of the coin 12, so that it can be detected whether the edge is knurled or not or consists of a non-conductive or non-magnetic material.
