Abstract (en)

An apparatus for managing money and playing accessories in games halls, in particular intended for bingo, comprises at least one money sorter (1), in which two separate paths (2, 3) for coins and banknotes are distinguishable, in such a way as to transfer separately coins and banknotes from a first seat (2a, 3a), where they are deposited by a single vendor, to a second seat (2a, 3b), where they are available for the cashier. The second seat (2b) of the path (2) for the coins is provided with a sliding base (8) for allowing the coins to pass through a channel (7) and reach a coin counter (6) which can be activated by the cashier. An electronic control device (9), which is particularly useful when several money sorters are present, performs at least the operations consisting in management of the movement of the sliding bases (8) and repeated activation of the coin counter (6), so as to obtain separate calculation of the coins supplied from each vendor. <IMAGE>
