The coin pusher 4 enters the coin input track and moves along the length direction of the coin input track. The lifting mechanism 35 is arranged below the coin input track to push the coins in the coin input track into the coin pushing assembly 4; the coin pushing assembly 4 is arranged above the coin input assembly 3, and the coin pushing assembly 4 is connected to the coin input assembly 3. The coin pushing assembly 4 includes a rotating push plate 42, and the bottom end of the rotating push plate 42 is connected to the coin input track. When the rotating push plate 42 reciprocates, the coins in the coin pushing assembly 4 are stacked step by step; the coin output assembly 5 is arranged above the coin pushing assembly 4, and the coin output assembly 5 is connected to the coin pushing assembly 4, and is used to stagger the stacked coins layer by layer.

[0042] Based on the above technical features, the coin storage component 1 serves as a coin collection and temporary storage area; the transportation component 2 is arranged on both sides of the coin storage component 1 to form two coin conveying channels, the entrance end of the transportation component 2 is closely connected with the coin storage component 1, and the exit end is connected with the coin inlet 311 of the coin inlet component 3, and the transportation component 2 is used to transport the coins in the coin storage component 1 to the coin inlet component 3; the coin inlet component 3, the coin inlet component 3 includes a coin inlet plate 31 and a coin inlet track, and the coin inlet ports 311 are provided on both sides of the coin inlet track for receiving coins, and the lifting mechanism 35 is arranged under the coin inlet track. When a certain number of coins are accumulated, they are pushed to a position connected with the coin pushing component 4; the coin pushing component 4, the coin pushing component 4 includes a rotating push plate 42, and the bottom end of the rotating push plate 42 is connected to the coin inlet track to stack the coins step by step through reciprocating rotation; the coin discharging component 5 is used to arrange the stacked coins in a staggered manner layer by layer to form a unique tower-like structure. The present invention realizes the automatic collection, transportation, stacking and staggered arrangement of coins through the coordinated work of various components. The various components are closely connected to form an efficient and compact mechanical system, which effectively reduces the failure rate of the tower stacking device and improves the efficiency of the tower stacking device in stacking coins.

[0043] As some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 3 to Figure 4As shown, the coin-input assembly 3 also includes a bottom plate 32 and a cover plate 33. The bottom plate 32 is arranged above the coin-input plate 31, and the cover plate 33 is arranged below the coin-input plate 31. A plurality of vertically arranged first through holes 312 are provided on the bottom plate 32, the cover plate 33 and the coin-input track, and the bottom end of the first through hole 312 is connected to the lifting mechanism 35. The bottom plate 32 is arranged above the coin-input plate 31 as a support surface for coin stacking. The first through holes 312 provided thereon are connected to the lifting mechanism 35 to ensure that the lifting mechanism 35 can smoothly push the coins from the bottom to the stacking position. The cover plate 33 is arranged below the coin-input plate 31 to form a clamping structure with the bottom plate 32 to enhance the overall stability of the coin-input assembly 3. It is also provided with a plurality of first through holes 312, which are not only connected to the lifting mechanism 35, but also play a role in positioning and adjusting the position of the lifting mechanism 35. The first through hole 312 is a connection channel between the lifting mechanism 35 and the bottom plate 32 , the cover plate 33 and the coin input track, ensuring that the lifting mechanism 35 can accurately and stably push the coin to the specified position.

[0044] As some embodiments of the present invention, Figure 3 to Figure 4 As shown, the coin-input assembly 3 also includes a plurality of guide tubes 34, each of which is inserted into the first through hole 312, and the lifting mechanism 35 pushes the coins in the coin-input track to the coin-pushing assembly 4 through the guide tubes 34, and the number of the guide tubes 34 is the same as the number of the first through holes 312. The coin-input assembly 3 includes a plurality of guide tubes 34, which play a key role in the assembly. Each guide tube 34 is vertically arranged. The coin-input assembly 3 realizes efficient and orderly input and processing of coins through the coordinated work of the guide tubes 34, the lifting mechanism 35 and the coin-pushing assembly 4. Each guide tube 34 precisely corresponds to a through hole, and the lifting mechanism 35 ensures that the coin can be smoothly pushed from the coin-input track to the coin-pushing assembly 4. This design not only improves the efficiency of coin processing, but also enhances the stability and reliability of the assembly. The number of the guide tubes 34 is the same as the number of the first through holes 312. This means that each through hole has a corresponding guide tube 34 . This design ensures the efficiency and accuracy of coin input, and each coin can enter the coin pushing assembly 4 through the corresponding through hole and guide tube 34 .

[0045] As some embodiments of the present invention, Figures 5 and 6As shown, the coin pusher assembly 4 further includes a pressing plate 41, which is disposed between the cover plate 33 and the rotating pusher plate 42. A second through hole is provided on the pressing plate 41, and the lifting mechanism 35 transports the coin to the upper end surface of the pressing plate 41 through the second through hole. The pressing plate 41 is an important component in the coin pusher assembly 4. It is disposed between the cover plate 33 and the rotating pusher plate 42. The main function of the pressing plate 41 is to provide a stable surface so that the coin can be stably placed on it and prepared for further processing. The pressing plate 41 is provided with a second through hole, which corresponds to the guide tube 34. The second through hole allows the lifting mechanism 35 to transport the coin from the guide tube 34 to the upper end surface of the pressing plate 41. This design ensures that the coin can smoothly transition from the lifting mechanism 35 to the pressing plate 41. This design component prepares for the subsequent coin pushing operation and also ensures the stability and accuracy of the coin during the pushing process.

[0046] As some embodiments of the present invention, Figures 5 and 6 As shown, the coin pusher assembly 4 also includes a positioning column 43, one end of which is connected to the pressure plate 41 for fixing the coin output assembly 5, and the positioning column 43 is located on the upper end surface of the pressure plate 41. The positioning column 43 is vertically arranged at the center of the pressure plate 41, and the pressure plate 41 is provided with a plurality of positioning blocks 421 arranged along the circumference of the positioning column 43. The positioning column 43 is an important component in the coin pusher assembly 4, one end of which is connected to the pressure plate 41 for fixing the coin output assembly 5, and the positioning column 43 is vertically arranged at the center of the pressure plate 41, which means that it forms a central axis on the pressure plate 41, providing a reference for pushing and positioning the coin, and because it is located at the center of the circle, the coin can rotate or move around this center during the pushing process, so that it is easier to be positioned and pushed. The design of these positioning blocks 421 is to temporarily store coins until they are pushed to the next processing stage, so that when the rotating push plate 42 pushes the coins, the coins can continuously enter the positioning blocks 421 from the upper end surface of the pressure plate 41, thereby facilitating the subsequent tower stacking operation of the coins in the positioning blocks 421.

[0047] As some embodiments of the present invention, Figures 5 and 6As shown, the coin pusher assembly 4 also includes a driving mechanism 44, which is connected to the rotating push plate 42 for driving the rotating push plate 42 to reciprocate. The driving mechanism 44 includes a motor 441 and a rocker member 442. The output end of the motor 441 is connected to one end of the rocker member 442, and the other end of the rocker member 442 is connected to the rotating push plate 42. The motor 441 drives the rocker member 442 to swing back and forth along a certain angle, and the rocker member 442 drives the rotating push plate 42 to reciprocate along a certain angle. The motor 441 is the core component of the driving mechanism 44, which provides the necessary torque and speed to drive the rocker member 442 to swing. The output end of the motor 441 is directly connected to one end of the rocker member 442, and the movement of the rocker member 442 is driven by the rotation of the output shaft. One end of the rocker member 442 is connected to the output end of the motor 441, and the other end is connected to the rotating push plate 42. When the motor 441 drives the rocker member 442, the rocker member 442 will swing back and forth along a certain angle. The rotating push plate 42 is a component in the coin pusher assembly 4 for pushing coins. It is connected to the other end of the swing rod 442. Therefore, when the swing rod 442 swings, the rotating push plate 42 will reciprocate along a certain angle. This rotation enables the rotating push plate 42 to contact and push the coins stored on the pressure plate 41. The driving mechanism 44 in the coin pusher assembly 4 realizes the reciprocating rotation of the rotating push plate 42 through the coordinated work of the motor 441 and the swing rod 442. This design not only improves the accuracy and efficiency of coin pushing, but also enhances the stability and durability of the assembly, providing strong support for the efficient operation of the coin processing system.

[0048] As some embodiments of the present invention, Figures 5 and 6As shown, a third through hole is provided at the center of the rotating push plate 42, and the other end of the positioning column 43 passes through the third through hole and is connected to the coin output assembly 5. A plurality of slide grooves 422 are provided on the rotating push plate 42, and the slide grooves 422 are arranged at circumferential intervals around the third through hole. A plurality of sliders 411 cooperating with the slide grooves 422 are also provided on the pressure plate 41. When the rotating push plate 42 reciprocates along a certain angle, the slider 411 reciprocates in the slide groove 422, and the reciprocating movement of the slider 411 pushes the coins on the upper end surface of the pressure plate 41 into the positioning block 421. The rotating push plate 42 is provided with a plurality of slide grooves 422, which are arranged at intervals around the circumference of the third through hole. The design of the slide grooves 422 takes into account the need for coin pushing, and provides a moving path for the slider 411, so that the slider 411 can reciprocate along the length direction of the slide groove 422 when the rotating push plate 42 rotates. At the same time, the reciprocating movement of the slider 411 in the slide groove 422 can push the coins on the upper end surface of the pressure plate 41 into the positioning block 421, so that the coins in the positioning block 421 are stacked layer by layer, and transported to the coin input component 3 through the third through hole, so that the coin input component 3 can subsequently displace the stacked coins layer by layer. This design not only improves the accuracy and efficiency of coin pushing, but also enhances the stability and durability of the component, providing strong support for the efficient operation of the coin processing system.

[0049] As some embodiments of the present invention, Figures 5 and 6 As shown, the coin pusher assembly 4 also includes an elastic mechanism 45, which is arranged on the upper end surface of the rotating push plate 42. One end of the elastic mechanism 45 is connected to the rotating push plate 42, and the other end is connected to the coin dispensing assembly 5. The reciprocating rotation of the rotating push plate 42 drives the coin dispensing assembly 5 to reciprocate through the elastic mechanism 45. The elastic mechanism 45 is an important part of the coin pusher assembly 4, which is responsible for transmitting power between the rotating push plate 42 and the coin dispensing assembly 5. When the rotating push plate 42 reciprocates, it transmits power to the coin dispensing assembly 5 through the elastic mechanism 45. The elastic mechanism 45 has a certain elasticity and buffering capacity, which helps to reduce the impact and wear between the rotating push plate 42 and the coin dispensing assembly 5, and ensures the smooth transmission of power.

[0050] As some embodiments of the present invention, Figures 7 to 10As shown, the coin output assembly 5 includes a coin dial 51, a sealing plate 52 and a ratchet member 53. The coin dial 51 is arranged above the rotating push plate 42. The coin dial 51 is arranged circumferentially around the positioning column 43. A plurality of grooves matching the positioning block 421 are arranged on the inner wall of the coin dial 51. The ratchet member 53 is arranged on the outer periphery of the coin dial 51; the elastic mechanism 45 includes a fixing member 451, a torsion spring 452 and a ratchet 453. One end of the fixing member 451 is connected to the sealing plate 52, and the other end is connected to the rotating push plate 42. The ratchet 453 is connected to the ratchet member 53. One end of the torsion spring 452 is connected to the fixing member 451, and the other end is connected to the ratchet 453. The rotating push plate 42 reciprocates along a certain angle, and the ratchet member 53 is driven to reciprocate along a certain angle through the fixing member 451, the torsion spring 452 and the ratchet 453, thereby driving the coin dial 51 to reciprocate along a certain angle. The coin dial 51 is arranged above the rotating push plate 42 and is arranged circumferentially around the positioning column 43. A plurality of grooves matching the positioning block 421 are arranged on the inner wall of the coin dial 51. These grooves are used to receive and position coins from the rotating push plate 42. When the rotating push plate 42 reciprocates along a certain angle, it transmits power to the elastic mechanism 45 through the fixing member 451. The torsion spring 452 deforms when the rotating push plate 42 rotates, stores energy, and releases energy when the rotating push plate 42 rotates. The ratchet wheel 53 is driven to reciprocate through the ratchet teeth 453. The rotation of the ratchet wheel 53 further drives the coin dial 51 to reciprocate, thereby realizing the layer-by-layer dislocation of the coins.

[0051] As some embodiments of the present invention, Figures 7 to 10As shown, the ratchet member 53 includes a first ratchet 531 and a second ratchet 532. The second ratchet 532 is arranged above the first ratchet 531. The outer teeth of the first ratchet 531 and the second ratchet 532 are arranged alternately. The first ratchet 531 is connected to the ratchet teeth 453, and the second ratchet 532 is connected to the coin dial 51. After the rotating push plate 42 rotates a certain angle, the rotation angle of the coin dial 51 is half of the rotation angle of the rotating push plate 42. The outer teeth of the first ratchet 531 and the second ratchet 532 are staggered, which means that their teeth are not aligned in the circumferential direction, but staggered at a certain angle. When the rotating push plate 42 rotates a certain angle, the ratchet 453 will push the first ratchet 531 to rotate unidirectionally. Since the outer teeth of the first ratchet 531 and the second ratchet 532 are staggered, the second ratchet 532 will respond to the rotation of the first ratchet 531, but its rotation angle will be half of the rotation angle of the first ratchet 531. Therefore, the rotation angle of the coin dial 51 will also be half of the rotation angle of the rotating push plate 42, so that the coin dial 51 can push one of the two adjacent layers of coins by a certain angle when the coins are stacked layer by layer, thereby making the entire tower body after the coins are stacked staggered layer by layer. The staggered arrangement layer by layer can make more efficient use of storage space, especially in the vertical direction. Compared with simple stacking, the staggered arrangement reduces the space waste between layers, so that the same number of coins can occupy a smaller total volume.

[0052] Furthermore, the power source of the coin dial 51 is the second ratchet 532, and the rotation of the second ratchet 532 is intermittent, that is, the second ratchet 532 does not necessarily rotate every time the ratchet 453 swings back and forth. Only when the ratchet 453 inserts into the deep teeth of the first ratchet 531 and acts on the teeth of the second ratchet 532 at the same time, the second ratchet 532 will rotate. Since the first ratchet 531 and the second ratchet 532 both have 16 teeth with the same distribution angle, each time the second ratchet 532 rotates, it will rotate 22.5 degrees counterclockwise.
