Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2013060349A1] The invention relates to a sorting apparatus (1) for sorting coins (36) out of a mixed bulk of metals, in particular out of a mixed bulk of non-ferrous metals and/or a mixed bulk of heavy metals, having means for conveying and/or guiding the mixed bulk of metals in a conveying direction (4) to a sorting gap (14, 29) through which coins (36) can pass and which is bounded by a roll (31, 32, 33, 34) that can be rotated about an axis of rotation (6, 7, 8) by means of a drive, in such a way that metal that cannot be conveyed further in the conveying direction (4) through the sorting gap (14, 29) can have a force applied thereto by the roll (10, 11, 12, 13, 31, 32, 33, 34) in a direction (24, 25) away from the sorting gap (14, 29).
