Abstract
A coin stacking apparatus comprises a coin passageway for conveying coins edge-wise, one at a time, and delivering them horizontally. A stacking station is provided for receiving the coins delivered from the forward end of the coin passageway to stack them therein. The stacking station comprises a pair of coin stacking drums each of which has on its outer periphery a ridge providing a support surface for supporting the bottom face of each of the coins delivered from the coin passageway. The ridges on the coin stacking drums are arranged in phase and in the opposite orientations. Each of the ridges is of a spiral configuration raised forwardly in the direction of coin conveyance. A drive mechanism is provided to rotate each of the coin stacking drums in such a direction that the coin support surface of the ridges is inclined downwardly.
