Payout control method for coin-operated gaming machine - paying out from coin storage in accordance with coin value memory and frequency of operation of payout button

摘要

The coin delivery control system responds to manual operation of a pay-out button at the front of the amusement machine, to deliver a number of coins corresponding in value to a recorded count total. The value of the valid coins entered in the machine is provided by a counter acting as a coin memory (29). The delivery control (12) uses the value held in the memory between insertion of the last coin and the operation of the return button, to count out the corresponding coin value. A timing device is activated by the delivery control (12), to feed the count out pulses provided by the delivery control to the coin memory (29) after a required delay. ADVANTAGE - Use of machine exclusively for changing money without playing game is made unattractive.
