NOTE:
The hoppers do not have an “Empty Sensor”. Empty hoppers are indicated by a failure
to count the required number of coins in a specified period of time (approximately three
minutes), however, if the changer shuts down frequently with an error relating to empty
hoppers when they are not, then the “serpentine coin path” should be cleaned as shown
in
Section 3 .
Figure 1-6. Coin Hopper
Hoppers
The bill changer contains two coin hoppers (see Figure 1-6) which mount on the front surface of the dispenser
assembly and pivot forward from the bottom for loading, unloading, and removal (see Table 1-2 for required
hopper types and capacities) .
The hopper transports coins to the detectors and coin chutes by means of a chain conveyor, which is driven from
below by a sprocket. The chain follows a serpentine path, so that excess coins fall back into the hopper ensuring
only one coin per pin enters the coin counting area.
The chain picks up coins from the bottom of the hopper and carries them up to the top, where they fall through the
upper chain guide ring and interrupt a light beam to a photodetector, which is mounted on the dispenser. The required
number of coins for a desired change combination are counted in this manner as the coins then fall through a closed
chute to the escrow bucket.
An agitator, which is mounted on the drive shaft of each hopper, agitates the coin load to minimize coin jams in the
hopper and ensure efficient coin pick up.
To reduce jams and minimize the need for cleaning, the hoppers also have Teflon-coated coin tracks.
