Abstract (en)
A coin-freed machine such as a pool table has a coin mechanism (17) and a control unit (2) which is linked to an operating device (9) and is arranged to actuate the machine (1) when sufficient coins have been inserted into the coin mechanism (17). The coin mechanism (17) is in the control unit (2) and the control unit (2) is located remote from the machine. A link (11), such as an electric cable, is provided between the unit (2) and the machine (1). The unit (2) may monitor and store data relating to operation of the coin mechanism (17), and provision may be made for transferring this to a data recorder (28). The unit (2) may include a timer (18b) so that the valve of coins required to actuate the machine (1) can automatically change at different times of the day.
