Abstract (en)

[origin: EP0561578A2] A coin storage structure includes a partition plate, a coin storage window, a shielding plate, and a link mechanism. The partition plate vertically partitions a housing into a processing chamber for storing a coin processing unit and a safe chamber for storing a safe. The coin storage window is formed in the partition plate to cause a coin discharged from the coin processing unit to drop into the safe in the safe chamber, thereby storing the coin. The shielding plate selectively opens and closes the coin storage window. The link mechanism removes the shielding plate from the coin storage window in a state that at least the door of the processing chamber is kept closed, and causes the shielding plate to face the coin storage window to shield the coin storage window in synchronism with an opening operation of the door. <IMAGE>
