Technical Examples

A selection mechanism for vending machines or other similar uses in which a separate coin or token entry point is provided for each product or selection offered. Each of these entry points includes a sensing device to determine the presence of a coin as it passes through. When a customer inserts a coin into the desired selector entry point, the presence and passage of the coin is latched into a logic circuit or microcontroller memory. All of the entry points are mechanically aligned to steer the coins into the input funnel of a coin acceptor/validator mechanism. After the coin is subsequently confirmed to be genuine the selector mechanism provides an output signal to indicate the selected option.
