Abstract
A device for transferring a flow of disc-shaped objects, such as coins, from a reservoir to a delivery location at a higher level. This device is provided with a coin guiding passage that has its bottom positioned in an inclined plane, said passage being connected to the reservoir through a passage portion that has its longitudinal axis directed substantially horizontally and merging into a portion that rises towards said delivery location through a curved section of substantially 90.degree.. To avoid hold up of the coin travel in the coin guiding passage, a number of control arms is provided within said curved section, said arms being adapted to rotate in the travel direction about an axis located adjacent the inside bend side wall of the curved section and extend substantially radially outwardly from said axis; in operation said arms extend between the successive coins in the coin guiding passage of the curved section, due to which the coins will 'round the curve' with more certainty.
