Patent ID: 7175016

Claim:
A sensor position adjusting device, comprising: a driving member for being driven by a coin dispensed by a coin dispenser; a sensor unit for detecting movement of the driving member to detect a coin dispensed by a coin dispenser; and a screw unit for adjusting the relative position of the sensor unit and the driving member including a fixed base plate attached to the coin dispenser, the fixed base plate having a first bracket extending perpendicular to the fixed base plate, a movable base plate releasably attached to the fixed base plate, the movable base plate having a second bracket extending perpendicular to the movable base plate, the sensor unit being mounted on the movable base plate, wherein the movable base plate includes elongated holes along the axis of a screw, the elongated holes allowing movement of the movable base plate relative to the fixed base plate only in the direction of the elongated holes, and the screw positioned to operatively connect a portion of the first bracket and the second bracket so that turning the screw causes the first bracket and the second bracket to move relative to each other, wherein turning the screw adjusts the position of the sensor unit.
