A slightly inclined trap door, operated by a solenoid plunger, is held in opened
(clock-wise) position by a permanent magnet inside the solenoid across which no
voltage is currently applied (the above figure shows the trap door in its closed
position).
The figure below illustrates the mechanism in idle mode before any metal object
is detected in the coin slot. The barrier plate is kept closed by a compression
spring and the trap door is in the open position.
When a metal object is detected by the detector coils, a voltage is temporarily
applied across a separate coil in the solenoid which generates a magnetic field

trap door rests in open position.
