[0025] The design of the driving component 3, the sensing module 4, and the sorting slide 5 utilizes the driving component 3 to drive the roller 2 to rotate. When the game tokens or plastic coins pass through the roller 2, due to their different sizes, some of the game tokens will fall onto the sorting slide 5 through the gap between the rollers 2, and slide along the sorting slide 5 to the designated area. The plastic coins and the remaining game tokens enter the sorting slide 5, and under the operation of the vibration motor 506, the coins of different diameters slide into different channels for sorting. At the same time, the number of plastic coins with chips is sensed by the sensing module 4 and counted.

The roller 2 relies on the friction stripes thereon to transport the game tokens and plastic coins thereon to the sorting slide 5. During the transportation process, due to the small size of the game tokens, the game tokens will fall onto the sorting slide 5 along the gap between the rollers 2. The driving component 3 is used to drive the roller 2 to rotate. When the game tokens or plastic coins pass through the roller 2, due to their different sizes, some of the game tokens will fall onto the sorting slide 5 through the gap between the rollers 2 and slide to the designated area along the sorting slide 5. The plastic coins and the remaining game tokens enter the sorting slide 5. Under the operation of the vibration motor 506, coins of different diameters slide into different channels for sorting.
