Abstract (en)
Device and method for coin verification, the device being mounted in a selector and comprising a sensor assembly; the selector comprises a casing and a zone of passage of the coin to be verified with a rolling track. The sensor assembly comprises an inertial mass and an accelerometer firmly mounted on said inertial mass, the accelerometer measuring the acceleration of the inertial mass according to a first direction in which an action-reaction force is produced between coin and sensor assembly; the sensor assembly has at least one degree of freedom according to a first axis, said first axis being directly related to the first direction of the accelerometer; the device is mounted on the selector casing at any point along the zone of passage of the coin. <IMAGE>
