[0020] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. In the following description, many specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present application, but the present application can also be implemented in other manners different from those described herein, and those skilled in the art can make similar generalizations without departing from the connotation of the present application, so the present application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below. EMBODIMENT

[0021] Please refer to Figures 1 to 11 As shown, the coin pusher with bidirectional detachable track of the present application comprises the following elements: a machine table 1, a coin placing disc 80 and a coin limiting ring 10. The coin placing disc 80 is used to accommodate a plurality of coins 3 and is installed above the coin limiting ring 10, so that the coins 3 can fall from the coin placing disc 80 through the coin limiting ring 10 and drop onto the machine table 1.

[0022] In actual use, the coin limiting ring 10 can be first fixed on the machine table 1, and then the coin placing disc 80 is installed above the coin limiting ring 10; or the coin placing disc 80 and the coin limiting ring 10 form an integrated structure, and the coin placing disc 80 and the coin limiting ring 10 can be combined into one body in any manner or integrally formed during manufacturing. In the present embodiment, the coin limiting ring 10 can be combined into one body with the coin placing disc 80 in a manner of screwing, bonding, welding or riveting.

[0023] A rotating disc 20 is installed on the machine table 1. After assembly, the coin limiting ring 10 surrounds the outside of the rotating disc 20. The rotating disc 20 is a rotatable structure, which is used to push each coin 3 of the coin placing disc 80 into a conveying track 30 extending upward from front to back on the machine table 1 in a rotating manner. The rotating disc 20 is driven by a driving motor 51.

[0024] An output track 90 is connected to the outlet 301 of the rear upper end of the conveying track 30, which is a track extending upward from bottom to top, and is used to guide the coins 3 output by the conveying track 30 upward.

[0025] As Figure 11As shown in the figure, a guide passage 95 is formed between the two inner side walls 91 inside the output track 90 to allow the coin 3 to pass through. The output track 90 is formed by connecting at least one arc-shaped track 92 and at least one straight track 94. The gap height of the guide passage 95 of the arc-shaped track 92 is greater than the gap height of the guide passage 95 of the straight track 94. The gap height of the guide passage 95 is the distance between the two inner side walls 91 inside the corresponding arc-shaped track 92 or straight track 94.

[0026] The gap height of the guide passage 95 of the straight track 94 is at least 1.27 times the thickness of the coin, and the gap height of the guide passage 95 of the arc-shaped track 92 is at least 1.3 times the gap height of the guide passage 95 of the straight track 94. Figure 11 The dimensions of the elements shown in the figure are only schematic and not actual dimensions. In this embodiment, the gap height of the guide passage 95 of the arc-shaped track 92 is 3mm, the gap height of the guide passage 95 of the straight track 94 is 2.3mm, and the thickness of the coin 3 is 1.8mm.

[0027] The shapes of the arc-shaped track 92 and the straight track 94 shown in the figure are not intended to limit the scope of the present application. In fact, the arc-shaped track 92 and the straight track 94 can be formed in various different shapes as needed to output the coin 3 to the desired location.

[0028] The above design allows the coin 3 to have a larger rotation margin when passing through the arc-shaped track 92, so that the output track 90 can have a smaller curvature radius at the curved section, thereby reducing the occupied volume of the entire output track 90. This not only makes the entire mechanism more compact, but also allows various curved sections to be arranged in a smaller accommodation space.

[0029] As shown in the figures, Figure 1 and Figure 6 The arc-shaped track 92 and the straight track 94 are each formed by connecting at least one sub-track 96. The sub-track 96 includes a front plate 961 and a rear plate 962, and the front plates 961 and the rear plates 962 of all the sub-tracks 96 form an interlaced connection structure. A portion of the front plate 961 and the rear plate 962 of each sub-track 96 abut against each other, and the abutment forms the guide passage 95. The un-abutted portions of the front plate 961 and the rear plate 962 form an upper exposed portion 963 and a lower exposed portion 964. The upper exposed portions 963 and the lower exposed portions 964 of the corresponding adjacent two sub-tracks 96 abut against each other. Figure 2 As shown, the lower exposed portion 964 of the sub-track 96 is located on the lower side of the rear plate 962, and the upper exposed portion 963 of the sub-track 96 is located on the upper side of the front plate 961. Figures 3 to 4Another staggered connection structure of the front plate 961 and the rear plate 962 of the sub-track 96 is shown. The lower exposed portion 964 of the sub-track 96 is located at the lower side of the front plate 961, and the upper exposed portion 963 of the sub-track 96 is located at the upper side of the rear plate 962.

[0030] As shown in Figure 1 , wherein the output track 90 is formed by at least one arc-shaped track 92 and at least one linear track 94 connected in series; wherein the arc-shaped track 92 and the linear track 94 connected in series are connected by a connecting plate 97 installed at the front side or the rear side of the output end 921 of the arc-shaped track 92, the input end 941 of the linear track 94 is connected to the output end 921 of the arc-shaped track 92, and the opposite side of the connecting plate 97 is connected.

[0031] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the connecting plate 97 is installed at the front side of the output end 921 of the arc-shaped track 92, and the input end 941 of the linear track 94 (i.e. the lower exposed portion 964 of the rear plate 962 of the sub-track) is connected to the rear side of the output end 921 of the arc-shaped track 92, and the opposite side of the connecting plate 97 is connected. Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the connecting plate 97 is installed at the rear side of the output end 921 of the arc-shaped track 92, and the input end 941 of the linear track 94 (i.e. the lower exposed portion 964 of the front plate 961 of the sub-track) is connected to the front side of the output end 921 of the arc-shaped track 92, and the opposite side of the connecting plate 97 is connected.

[0032] Therefore, in use, each sub-track 96 can be selected to adopt different staggered ways, and the connecting plate 97 can be disassembled from the front side or the rear side of the sub-track 96, improving the convenience of installation.

[0033] As shown in Figures 7 to 9 , wherein the upper ends of the output track 90 form a right output channel 931 and a left output channel 932 on the left and right sides, respectively, which are connected to the exit end 951 above the guide channel 95, and the right output channel 931 and the left output channel 932 are not parallel to the guide channel 95. In the figure, the right output channel 931 and the left output channel 932 are shown as horizontal channels transverse to the guide channel 95. The exit end 951 of the guide channel 95 is provided with a sliding mechanism 60, which includes:

[0034] a spring 62;

[0035] a left sliding groove 662 located on the left output channel 932, and

[0036] A right slide 661 is located on the right output channel 931. The left slide 662 and the right slide 661 are symmetrical.

[0037] A slider 64 is installed in either the right slide groove 661 or the left slide groove 662. One end of the spring 62 is fixed to the output rail 90, and the other end is connected to the slider 64. The left slide groove 662 extends obliquely outward from the upper left of the upper end of the guide channel 95, and the right slide groove 661 extends obliquely outward from the upper right of the upper end of the guide channel 95.

[0038] The slider 64 is mounted on a rotating rod 641, through which the spring 62 is connected. One end of the rotating rod 641 is pivotally connected to a rotating shaft 642, which is located above the output track 90. ​​The rotating rod 641 is used to drive the slider 641 to move within the left slide groove 662 or the right slide groove 661.

[0039] The slider 64 is located at the inner end of the left slide 662 or the right slide 661 and is located inside the outlet end 951 of the guide channel 95.

[0040] like Figure 7 and Figure 8 The rear view of the sliding mechanism 60 shown illustrates that when the slider 64 is installed in the right slide groove 661, the coin 3 moves from the guide channel 95 to the slider 64, and the slider 64 is pushed by the coin 3 to the outer end of the right slide groove 661. Figure 7 (Showing its movement along direction D), allowing the coin 3 to pass through the slider 64 and enter the left output channel 932. The slider 64 retracts to the inner end of the groove 66 by the elastic force of the spring 62, pushing the coin 3 outward, causing the coin 3 to be ejected outward from the left output channel 932 (as shown). Figure 7 (as shown in direction C).

[0041] like Figure 9 A rear view showing another application example of the sliding mechanism 60, wherein when the slider 64 is installed in the left slide groove 662, the coin 3 moves from the guide channel 95 to the slider 64, and the slider 64 is pushed by the coin 3 to the outer end of the left slide groove 662. Figure 9 (Showing its movement along direction E), allowing the coin 3 to pass through the slider 64 and enter the right output channel 931. The slider 64 retracts to the inner end of the groove 66 by the elastic force of the spring 62, pushing the coin 3 outward, causing the coin 3 to be ejected outward from the right output channel 931 (as shown). Figure 9 (as shown in direction B).

[0042] The present application also includes a sensor 65 installed on the right output channel 931 or the left output channel 932. The sensor 65 includes a sensing end 651 located outside the left chute 662 or the right chute 661; the sensing end 651 is used to sense the number of coins 3 in the right output channel 931 or the left output channel 932 to calculate the number of coins 3 passing through. The left chute 662 has a left recess 664 above it; the right chute 661 has a right recess 663 above it, wherein the sensor 65 is installed in the left recess 664 or the right recess 663.

[0043] A transverse baffle 652 is detachably installed above the left chute 662 or the right chute 661, which is used to guide the coins 3 to be ejected transversely from the right output channel 931 or the left output channel 932. The transverse baffle 652 includes a protruding portion 653 located above the outlet of the right output channel 931 or the left output channel 932. As shown in Figure 7 When the slider 64 is located in the right chute 661, the protruding portion 653 of the transverse baffle 652 is located above the outlet of the left output channel 932; as shown in Figure 9 When the slider 64 is located in the left chute 662, the protruding portion 653 of the transverse baffle 652 is located above the outlet of the right output channel 931.

[0044] Therefore, when the coins 3 push the slider 64 to be output from the right output channel 931 or the left output channel 932, the protruding portion 653 of the transverse baffle 652 can resist the upward ejection of the coins 3, thereby limiting the movement range of the coins 3.

[0045] As shown in Figure 10 The rotating disc 20 has a plurality of disc body perforations 21, and the conveying track 30 is an annular track located below the plurality of disc body perforations 21 of the rotating disc 20. The coins 3 falling from the coin placing disc 80 into the rotating disc 20 pass through the plurality of disc body perforations 21 and fall into the conveying track 30, and the rotating disc 20 pushes the coins 3 along the conveying track 30 through its bottom. Figure 10 The dashed line A in FIG. 8 shows the movement path of the coins 3 in the conveying track 30 and the output track 90. The conveying track 30 is connected to the output track 90, and a sliding stopper 50 is arranged at the connection position of the conveying track 30 and the output track 90. The sliding stopper 50 is installed in a recess 54 and can move along the recess 54. When the coins 3 pass through the sliding stopper 50, the sliding stopper 50 is pushed outward by the coins 3, so that the coins 3 can enter the output track 90; when the coins 3 enter the output track 90, the sliding stopper 50 slides back under the recess 54 to support the coins 3 in the output track 90, thereby reducing the movement resistance of the coins 3 in the output track 90 to the coins 3 in the conveying track 30.

[0046] The utility model discloses a plurality of subtracks of output track adopt the structure of staggered series connection, and each subtrack can be disassembled from the front side or the back side, which improves the convenience of installation.

[0047] Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor belong to the scope of protection of the utility model.
