Definitions
- the invention relates to a changer for coin machines for the Acceptance of coins from a national currency and the euro currency according to the generic term of claim 1.
- Money changers are used in many vending machines and other machines. she usually have a number of coin tubes in which the coins are stacked become. The feeding takes place with the help of a sorting device, which the by a coin acceptor into the corresponding tubes as genuine coins directs. A payout device pays coins out of the tubes according to the overpaid amount Price.
- the function of the changer is controlled by a microprocessor monitors who also usually the other controls and monitoring of the Functions of the coin validator. In the microprocessor z. B. the reference values with which the coin signals of the coin validator are compared to determine whether a coin inserted is real or not.
- DE 195 45 417 A is a money changer for coin-operated machines with a switchover facility from a national currency to the euro currency.
- the device is a coin validator, four change tubes in a change container and a cash register is provided, the coin validator sending a credit signal to a control unit to enumerate a loan.
- the control unit compares the enumerated Credit with the prices on a price list, where the customer can choose in which currency the purchase price or the amount still to be paid is displayed want to get.
- a first inserted coin generates a currency signal and causes an assignment to the corresponding price list of the associated currency.
- the customer can also choose the amount to be paid using both currencies enter into the coin machine.
- the control unit For coins that are not the base currency belong, the control unit uses a conversion value and adds the Equivalent value in the base currency to the loan. If the credit is higher than the price the desired goods, the control unit calculates an amount of change and gives a control signal to the change container to dispense the overpaid amount.
- the program contained in the sort control block blocks sorting on or after the key date national coins that are directed into the cash register and gives the sorting of euro coins free in specified coin tubes.
- the coin tubes can only contain coins of one currency and must be exchanged after the currency change.
- the invention has for its object a money changer to specify for coin machines, which enables the operator to prepare in a preparatory time before the deadline, January 1st. 2002 to undertake all necessary renovation work so that the money changer the key date can perform its full function without the effort for actual changeover from the national currency to the euro currency is particularly high.
- the aim is, apart from the renovation work in the preparation time to let further changeover measures by operators come to an end.
- the changer according to the invention is designed so that its microprocessor either includes two currency blocks, one for the national currency and has one for the euro, or a controllable area in which it is determined which is the base currency into which the other currency is to be converted.
- the latter applies to those changers who only have a single channel combination for the national currency and the euro currency. Every block is equipped with a number of channels that are sufficient to the national coins plus the euro currency.
- the DM block z. B. not only contains channels for all DM coins 0.10, 0.50, 1.00, 2.00 and 5.00 DM, but also for all planned ones Euro coins, namely 0.05, 0.10, 0.20, 0.50, 1.00 and 2.00 E. In the other case, is only half of the channels are present, i. H.
- the money changer at the time of the conversion, via the price block prices are also set in euro currency. An assignment is also made the coin tubes to the euro coins. Finally, at least two tubes a three or four-tube changer for accepting euro coins, in particular low-value euro coins, installed or set. In some currencies it is possible to use coin tubes of the national currency directly for euro coins to use. This is e.g. B. the case for tubes for DM coins. In other currencies there is only partial agreement. The coin tubes are then rebuilt or installed so that on the one hand the acceptance of national coins it is possible to issue change in this currency, on the other hand the acceptance of euro coins, whereby before 1 January 2002 euro coins still should not be available.
- the money changer according to the invention therefore works from the time of the conversion until the cut-off date in the usual way and gives change in national currency, however for accepting, evaluating, sorting and issuing euro coins already prepared.
- the money changers according to the invention for the acceptance of euro coins are already available stand.
- this does not necessarily mean that a money changer to this Time also has a currency exchange function.
- the invention provides that the money exchange function at any time after the conversion date is maintained, with different handling after the reporting date it can be provided whether the changer is based on national currency or the euro base performs its exchange function as long as the machine accepts of national currency coins is not yet blocked on a second key date.
- the corresponding functional changes in the machine run automatically, either controlled by a timer or a Date generator that generates a corresponding switchover signal on the key date.
- a timer e.g. by the first appearance of a euro coin is defined or the first appearance of a plurality of euro coins or generates a changeover signal for a specific combination of euro coins.
- the change in function to be carried out on the key date does not take place takes place at an exact time, but depending on the event.
- audit data is understood to mean provide information about the acceptance and payment behavior of a machine, such as B. Information about individual sales transactions with reference to thrown in and repaid coins, sales information, etc. They are usually made by read from the machine by an operator from time to time.
- the invention has the great advantage that a smooth transition for the changer from the national to the euro currency and the money changer No need to set money exchange function at any time.
- the only peculiarity for customers of vending machines is that during the transition period before can receive change in euros after the cut-off date, which is converted to national currency and national after the switchover time Coins converted into euro currency. If this is a disadvantage at all is to be considered, it would be regarded as much less than the temporary Block any money exchange function.
- the changeover time can be due to the vacancy of all coin tubes for national coins or based on a specified level in the tubes. Therefore, the time of switching cannot be clearly determined in time.
- the DM tubes can also be used for Euro tubes. It is therefore not necessary to convert the coin tubes before the cut-off date. On the cut-off date, the DM holdings are registered and saved in the coin tubes. The exchange function can therefore continue to be carried out by paying out DM coins. At a switchover point at which the DM tubes are empty for 0.10 DM, the changeover takes place on a euro basis, ie all DM coins still available in the coin tubes are converted on a euro basis. However, the tubes can already be filled with euro coins. For example, there are fifteen and sixty euro coins in the tubes for storing 0.20 and 0.50 euros, respectively.
- a first tube is shown with an example Level as of the reporting date.
- a tube counter for DM coins and a tube counter for euro coins is provided in the tube.
- the tube are on the cut-off date z.
- Above is a free area for adoption of 0.5 euro coins is suitable.
- the status of the Euro tube counter is therefore Zero.
- euro coins can be saved and on the changeover day there is a stand of twelve DM coins and thirty-five in the tube 0.5 euro coins.
- a second tube counter e.g. H. a euro tube counter be dispensed with, because 0.5 euros corresponds to around 1.00 DM. Behaves differently however, if such a smooth conversion is not possible.
- the attached drawing sheet shows a timeline on which the various The times of the changeover of a money changer are specified as well as the Base currency in the phases between the times.
- the second deadline marked the end of the transition period, after which the acceptance of national coins is blocked is.
- the corresponding signal can e.g. B. generated by a timer, similar to the 1st reporting date.
