Abstract
A change return protection device is disclosed which prevents thieves for stuffing flexible material into coin-operated machine's, coin return chutes. The device seals off the change return's change return chute when the change return door is opened, and it prevents stuffing of the change return chute by also incorporating a blocking flap and a slot blocking plate around which the flexible material cannot be inserted. The device is suitable for use in existing change return mechanisms.
