Description

What it's for

A fully mechanical, gravity-fed coin magazine tailored for standard U.S. quarters. It stores a full $10 roll vertically and dispenses exactly $1 (four quarters) per cycle into the palm of the hand. The mechanism relies on a two-stage sliding escapement, now utilizing a side-mounted limit pin to ensure the coin path remains entirely unobstructed during travel.

Dimensions

  • Overall Envelope (Dispenser): 34 × 56 × 75 mm (when closed)
  • Slider Thickness: 7.2 mm
  • Coin Bore: 25.2 mm (optimized for 24.26 mm quarters)

Clearances

  • Slider Play: 0.4 mm vertical clearance inside the track
  • Pin Clearance: 0.3 mm on the locking pin diameter
  • Cap Threads: 0.6 mm diametric clearance for smooth twisting

Assembly

The main body, slider, cap, and limit pin print separately without supports. Insert the slider into the main body track, align the side slot with the right-hand hole on the body, and push the limit pin flush into the side countersink to capture the mechanism.

Remix ideas

  • Threaded Cap: The top of the magazine tube features a coarse 4mm-pitch thread. Alter the tube height to make a shorter 20-coin version.
  • Coin Bore: Tweak the internal offset diameter for other currencies or custom arcade tokens.
  • Slider Thickness: Scaling the Z-dimension alters how many coins drop per pull.
