Abstract (en)
[origin: EP3104344A1] A coin hopper includes a hopper body including a housing having an accommodation chamber defined in a funnel-shaped coin box thereof and a coin outlet for guiding coins out of the accommodation chamber individually, a rotating wheel having multiple coin-pushing blades radially and equiangularly extended from a wheel base thereof and a coin-receiving space defined between each two adjacent coin-pushing blades, each coin-pushing blade having an abutment edge extending along one lateral side thereof for stopping one coin in one coin-receiving space and a pushing edge extending along an opposite lateral side thereof, a power drive adapted for rotating the rotating wheel to let coins be ruffled by the coin-pushing blades and forced into the coin-receiving spaces and then guided by the arc-shaped abutment edges to move out of each coin-receiving space upwardly toward the coin outlet one after another, and a coin-dispensing mechanism including a spring-loaded lever for pushing coins out of the coin outlet individually.
