Abstract
There is provided a coin packaging machine of the type in which one packaging operation is controlled by one revolution of a cam driving shaft. The coin packaging machine is provided with an apparatus for processing irregularly stacked coins. The apparatus comprises a mechanism for detecting an irregularity in a predetermined number of stacked coins inside a cartridge, a mechanism for accepting the output of the irregularity detection mechanism at a predetermined timing and for reversing the rotation of the cam driving shaft when the irregularity is detected, a mechanism for preventing the removal of the coins from said cartridge during the reverse rotation of the cam driving shaft and within a predetermined time after the return thereof to its initial position, and a mechanism for supervising the output of the irregularity detection mechanism during the reverse rotation of the cam driving shaft and within a predetermined time after the return thereof to its initial position, and for rotating the cam driving shaft normally when the irregularity has been eliminated.
