Original Abstract Submitted
a coin handling device for a coin handling machine may include a coin container for holding coins in a volume. a coin output arrangement may be configured to output coins from the coin container. the coin handling device may include a bridge-counteracting arrangement for counteracting coin bridge formation. the bridge-counteracting arrangement may include a center shaft protruding into the volume and configured to perform rotational motion. a bridge-breaking, element presenting a coin interacting surface may be arranged in the volume, facing away from the bottom of the volume, and extending externally to a perimeter of the center shaft, towards an inner wall defining the volume. the center shaft may have a distal end coupled to the bridge-breaking element for enabling conversion of rotational motion of the center shaft to wiggling motion of the coin interacting surface, whereby coin bridge formation is counteracted.
