Benefits of technology
[0018] This present invention is further desirable, because the supporting roller has contact with the transporting unit and is rotated by the coin transporting unit. In this structure, when there are no coins, the supporting roller rotates when it has contact with the coin transporting unit. When the piled-up coins arrive, the supporter unit contacts the piled-up coins by self-rotation. Therefore, the coins are pushed to the coin transporting unit by the supporter unit. In other words, the coins go between the supporting roller and the coin transporting unit easier. Therefore, the separation of coins is achieved faster, because the coins move together with the coin transporting unit.
[0019] This present invention is desirable, because a second coin transporting unit is located downstream of the coin transporting unit and moves faster than the coin transporting unit. In this structure, a coin has contact with the second transporting unit in a situation where the coin is held between the coin transporting unit and the separating roller. Also, the coin is drawn faster by the speed of the second transporting unit. Therefore, the coin is drawn positively from the coin transporting unit and the separating roller. As a result, the separation of the coins is achieved faster.
[0020] This present invention is desirable, because a drawing auxiliary unit is a roller which is located downstream from the separating roller and has a distance which is thinner than the thinnest coin and is located away from the second coin transporting unit. In this structure, the coin is held between the drawing auxiliary unit and the transporting unit in the situation where the coin is held between the coin transporting unit and the separating roller. The drawing auxiliary unit is a roller. Therefore, the coin is pushed into the coin transporting unit by the roller; also it does not approximately slip relative to the coin transporting unit. As a result, the separation for the coins is achieved faster, because the coin is drawn positively from the coin transporting unit and the separating unit.
Problems solved by technology
The prior art has experienced problems with smaller sized coins that could pass through such a space, and attempts have been made to narrow the gap between the belt and the roller.
However, this solution sometimes has difficulty if thicker coins are utilized.

A coin separating unit of a compact configuration for separating coins of different thicknesses from a bulk supply includes a coin transporting unit such as a rotating belt having a support surface of a predetermined flexibility and friction characteristic. A separating roller unit is positioned above a support surface and rotates in a direction opposite to the movement of the belt. A supporter unit is operatively located upstream of the separating roller unit and can displace coins that are overlaid with each other. The belt has sufficient flexibility so that a gap between the surface of the belt and a separating roller unit can be increased to accommodate a particular thickness of coin as it passes beneath the separating roller unit.
