Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2004/104945
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A coin metal-processing device and a method of controlling the device, where whether or not a metal coin is acceptable and money sum information etc. for the metal coin can be set, and where both ordinary coins and metal coins can be used. A setting portion (5) is operated to shift a coin metal-processing device (1) to a metal coin-setting mode, coins with the sum equivalent to a set money sum are dropped in, and the sum of coins identified is memorized in a memory (9). A predetermined number of coins are dropped in, and characteristics data of the predetermined number of coins are collected at any time by a characteristics data-collecting portion (6) and stored in a characteristics data-stowing portion (7). A characteristics data-analyzing portion (8) analyzes whether or not the characteristics data overlap with characteristics data of each coin and further analyzes whether or not variations of the characteristics data are within a specified value. A control portion (2) sets reception of the metal coins based on the result of the analysis. When the reception of the metal coins is permitted, the money sum memorized in the memory is set as a set money sum.
