Belt having protrusion formed thereon
The present invention relates to a belt with a protrusion, including: a belt main body including tooth portions at a predetermined tooth pitch on an inner surface of the belt in a longitudinal direction, and a cord extending in the longitudinal direction and arranged at a predetermined cord pitch in a width direction; and a protruding portion formed on a back surface of the belt main body by an integral formation, in which: the cord has a fineness of 900 to 1100 deniers, and a ratio of a total of intervals between the adjacent cords to a belt width of 12 to 45%; and the protruding portion is arranged outside the tooth portions, has a hardness of 81 to 91 degrees, and has a base width smaller than the tooth pitch.
GAME TOKEN TRAY, TABLE GAME MANAGEMENT SYSTEM, GAME TOKEN TRAY SYSTEM, AND GAME TOKEN MANAGEMENT METHOD
A game token tray system includes a game token tray having a dual tray structure in which a game token is stored. The game token tray system includes a double tray including a lower tray and an upper tray stacked on the lower tray to store a game token provided with an RF tag in which tag information is stored, a camera that acquires tray image data by imaging the game token stored in the upper tray, an RIFD reading device that reads the tag information from the RF tag of the game token stored in the lower tray, and a game recording device that records the tray image data and/or an image analysis result of the tray image data about the game token stored in the upper tray and records the tag information read by the RFID reading device about the game token stored in the upper tray.
Use of Spacers to Accommodate Less Than a Capacity Number of Coins in a Roll of Coins in a Case
A standard sized coin roll holder is loaded with a stack of alternating coins and spacers such that a variable number of coins can be accommodated in a standard sized holder. The number of coins loaded into the holder can be configured to be one more than the number of spacers, starting with a coin, then a spacer and so on, such that a coin occupies both the first position and the last position in the stack and making a coin face visible at each end. A twenty coin holder can be loaded, for example, with 10 coins and 9 spacers or with 5 coins and 4 spacers. A compressible silicone rubber washer can also be included to account for slight variations in coin thickness, thus securing the stack within the available height inside a closed and sealed case.
COIN HANDLING APPARATUS
A coin handling apparatus includes: a first transport path configured to transport coins; a feeding unit configured to feed out the coins one by one to the first transport path; a recognition unit configured to recognize the coins fed out to the first transport path by the feeding unit; a storage unit arranged beneath the recognition unit, the storage unit being configured to receive the coins recognized by the recognition unit from the first transport path, and store the coins therein; and a cassette detachably mounted to the coin handling apparatus and arranged beneath the recognition unit and above the storage unit, the cassette being configured to receive the coins from the first transport path and store the coins therein.
PAPER SHEET HANDLING APPARATUS AND METHOD OF CONFIGURING PLD IN PAPER SHEET HANDLING APPARATUS
A paper sheet handling apparatus includes a plurality of mechanical units including a paper sheet handling unit, the plurality of mechanical units each including a processor, a programmable logic device (PLD) controlled by the processor, a first mechanical module including a first mechanical element controlled by the PLD, and an interface that connects a second mechanical module including a second mechanical element, wherein when the processor detects connection of the second mechanical module via the interface, the processor reads, from a second storage included in the second mechanical module, the second storage storing second firmware of the processor configured to control the first mechanical element and the second mechanical element and second data for use in configuring a logic circuit of the PLD configured to control the first mechanical element and the second mechanical element, the second firmware to load the second firmware onto the processor.
Coin selector holder for a commercial appliance and commercial appliance
A coin selector holder for a commercial home appliance is provided. The coin selector holder includes a body mounted on a control panel of the commercial home appliance and provided with a mounting groove opening, a first supporting arm arranged on a first side of the mounting groove opening and fastened to the control panel in a bending manner, and a second supporting arm, arranged on a second side of the mounting groove opening. After the first supporting arm is fastened on the control panel, the second supporting arm is clamped to the control panel, and is slideable along the control panel during the clamping process. A commercial appliance including the coin selector holder for the commercial home appliance is provided.
PAPER SHEET ACCUMULATION DRUM, PAPER SHEET ACCUMULATION DEVICE, AND PAPER SHEET PROCESSING DEVICE
In a drum-type paper sheet accumulation device that sequentially supplies paper sheets to an outer circumferential surface of a payout drum, accumulates the paper sheets by winding the paper sheets in a stacked state, and returns the paper sheets all at once, a technique is provided which can keep a linear velocity of a paper sheet located at an outermost circumference of the payout drum constant and can maintain an arranged state of the paper sheets without any particular speed control. A paper sheet accumulation drum 105 that stacks and accumulates paper sheets supplied one by one on an outer circumferential surface thereof while rotating, includes a plurality of retractable members 280 that are arranged on a paper sheet accumulation portion of the outer circumferential surface in a predetermined circumferential arrangement, are configured to be retractable between a most protruding position protruding radially outward and a retreat position retreating from the most protruding position radially inward, are each elastically biased in a protruding direction, and each come into contact with a paper sheet surface on an outer surface. The paper sheets are accumulated to spread over the retractable members.
COIN PROCESSING APPARATUS
A coin processing apparatus includes a coin cup in front of the apparatus, where an operator operates the apparatus, a coin reception device on the front side in the apparatus, and a coin dispensing device behind the coin reception device. The rolling speed of a coin carried to the coin cup is reduced by a coin deceleration part, which prevents the coin from falling from the coin cup.
COIN HANDLING APPARATUS
In order to drop a coin into an opening formed in a transport path for sorting coins, a coin handling apparatus includes: a transport path having a transport surface in which the opening for dropping a coin is formed; a conveyor configured to transport a coin on the transport surface along the transport path; a gate including a plurality of members configured to move between a closed position for closing the opening such that a coin transported by the conveyor is not dropped into the opening, and an opened position for opening the opening such that the coin is dropped into the opening; and a drive motor configured to drive the plurality of members to control the gate to move between the closed position and the opened position.
