CONTROL METHOD FOR AUTOMATIC MEDAL FEEDING OUT DEVICE, AND AUTOMATIC MEDAL FEEDING OUT DEVICE AND CONTROL PROGRAM THEREOF

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a control method for a medal feeding out device capable of quickly ejecting medals in response to a request for delivery from a game machine main body, and to provide an automatic medal feeding out device and a control program thereof. SOLUTION: When medals exist in a medal receiver pat (tank) 11 and a sensor 12 detects the existence thereof, the medals are carried onto a rail 13 by a slider 14 till a sensor 16 detects a restriction of ejection of the medals by a stopper 17. When ejection of the medals is requested, since the ejection of the medals is restricted on the rail 13 by the stopper 17 as long as the medals are thrown into the medal receiver part 11 before the ejection is requested, the medals can be quickly ejected from a medal feeding out part 1 by releasing the stopper 17 on the basis of the request for ejection.
