To provide a coin receiving device that can reduce consumption power as compared with a case of moving a shutoff member always using an electronic component.SOLUTION: A coin receiving device 100 receives a coin. The coin receiving device 100 includes an enclosure 1, an opening/closing member 3, a shutoff member 23, and a movement mechanism 5. The enclosure 1 has an opening 1a in which a coin is inserted. The opening/closing member 3 opens or closes the opening 1a. The shutoff member 23 enters a moving passage PT of the coin inserted through the opening 1a to shut off the moving passage PT. The movement mechanism 5 causes the shutoff member 23 to enter the moving passage PT of the coin in conjunction with closing of the opening 1a by the opening/closing member 3. The movement mechanism 5 causes the shutoff member 23 to retract from the moving passage PT of the coin in conjunction with opening of the opening 1a by the opening/closing member 3.SELECTED DRAWING: Figure 5 【課題】常に電子部品を使用して遮断部材を移動する場合と比較して、消費電力を抑制できる硬貨入金装置を提供する。【解決手段】硬貨入金装置１００には、硬貨が入金される。硬貨入金装置１００は、筐体１と、開閉部材３と、遮断部材２３と、移動機構５とを備える。筐体１は、硬貨が投入される開口１ａを有する。開閉部材３は、開口１ａを開放または閉塞する。遮断部材２３は、開口１ａから投入される硬貨の移動経路ＰＴに進入して、移動経路ＰＴを遮断する。移動機構５は、開閉部材３が開口１ａを閉塞することに連動して、遮断部材２３を硬貨の移動経路ＰＴに進入させる。開閉部材３が開口１ａを開放することに連動して、移動機構５は、遮断部材２３を硬貨の移動経路ＰＴから退避させる。【選択図】図５
