Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0470587A2] Electronic coin-testing device, having a test stage containing at least one sensor, an acceptance switch which, in the normally closed position, guides a coin arriving from the test stage into a return channel, a sorting switch which follows the acceptance switch and which, in the closed position, guides a coin passing the opened acceptance switch into a sorting device and, in the open position, guides it to a cash collector, and a control device which is connected to the sensor and to the switches, the test stage being assigned a speed-measuring device which measures the speed of the coin in the test stage and the control device keeping the sorting switch closed for a period of time which is proportional to the speed of the coin. <IMAGE>
