  However, conventionally, it is not possible to visually determine between a bundle of paper sheets sealed with 100 sheets and a bundle sealed with less than 100 sheets, and finds a bundle of less than 100 sheets in a later process. There is a problem that the processing efficiency is lowered.

  The present invention has been made paying attention to the above circumstances, and an object of the present invention is to provide a paper sheet bundling apparatus that can easily discriminate visually even if the number of paper sheets is less than a predetermined number. There is to do.

  In order to solve the above-mentioned problem, the invention described in claim 1 comprises a printing means for printing information on the first binding material, and a predetermined number of first binding materials on which information is printed by the printing means. A first bundling means that winds and seals a paper sheet or a paper sheet that has been collected in less than a predetermined number of sheets, and a bundled bundle that has a predetermined number of bundles bundled by the first bundling means. Second bundling means for bundling with a second bundling material to form a bundle, and the printing means is configured to output the information when the first bundling material is wound around the predetermined number of sheets. Is printed on the first portion of the first binding material so that the first binding material is not stacked on the side surface of the stacked paper sheet, When wound, a part of the information is located on the side surface of the stacked paper sheet Printing by shifting the information into a different second site and the first portion of the in so that the first strap.

    According to the present invention, even if there are less than a predetermined number of sheets, it can be easily discriminated visually, and the processing efficiency in the next process can be improved.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings.

  FIG. 1 is a schematic configuration diagram showing a paper sheet processing apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention.

  In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes an apparatus main body, and a supply unit 2 for supplying paper sheets in a stacked state is provided on one side of the apparatus main body 1. The paper sheets supplied from the supply unit 2 are sent to the paper supply unit 3. The paper feeding unit 3 feeds the paper sheets one by one, and the fed paper sheets are transported along the transport path.

  An inspection unit 5, a plurality of regular paper stacking units 7, a waste paper stacking unit 13, and an exclusion paper stacking unit 14 are disposed in the transport path in order along the transport direction of the sheets.

  On the lower side of the plurality of regular paper stacking sections 7, a hundred belt section 8 serving as a first binding means is disposed. The hundred-sheet belt-hanging portion 8 binds hundred sheets of paper sheets together with a small band to form a bundle. A transport conveyor 16 that transports the grip in the direction of the arrow A is provided on the lower side of the hundred-sheet belt hanging portion 8, and a lifter 17 that receives and lifts the grip is provided on the unloading end side of the transport conveyor 16. Yes. A bundle lifted by the lifter 17 is sent to a thousand-band strap 10 as second bundling means, and a predetermined number of bundles are collected (10 bundles). The 10 bundles that have been collected are fed to a label attaching section 11 that is covered with a large band and arranged adjacently.

  In the above-described configuration, the 1000 sheets stacked in the supply unit 2 are conveyed to the sheet feeding unit 3 and fed out one by one. The paper sheets are transported along the transport path, counted by the counting function of the inspection unit 5, and the print is read, and determinations are made by various detection functions. The paper sheets are classified based on the determination result, and the normal determination papers are continuously stacked in the normal paper stacking unit 7. As shown in FIG. 2, every hundred sheets are sealed with small bands k as the first binding material to form bundles.

  Hundred bundles of bundles t are transferred onto the conveyer 16 and conveyed, sent to the thousand-piece band hanging unit 10 through the lifter 17, and alternately stacked every five bundles as shown in FIG. After that, the bundle T is formed by multiplying the ten characters by the vertical band K1 and the horizontal band K2 as the large band. The bundled bundle T is sent to the label affixing unit 11 where a label 19 with a predetermined printing is affixed and discharged outside the apparatus.

  On the other hand, paper sheets determined to be abnormal by the inspection unit 5 are accumulated in the waste paper accumulating unit 13 or the excluded paper accumulating unit 14 according to the determination result. As described above, when paper sheets are stacked in the waste paper stacking unit 13 or the excluded paper stacking unit 14, the number of paper sheets stacked in the regular paper stacking unit 7 is less than 100 sheets. Automatic banding is performed.

  By the way, on the small band k used in the above-mentioned hundred-sheet band section 8, predetermined information is printed prior to sealing by a printing section 21 as printing means as shown in FIG. .

  The printing unit 21 includes a print head 22, an ink ribbon 23, and a platen roller 24 that is opposed to and spaced from the ink ribbon 23. The small band k is fed and conveyed between the print head 22 and the platen roller 24, and the ink on the ink ribbon 23 is transferred to the small band k by the heat generated by the print head 22 so that information is printed. .

  The small band k on which the information is printed is cut to a predetermined length with a cutter (not shown) and sent to the hundred-sheet band hanging portion 8, where it is wound around the accumulated paper sheets and sealed. It is like that.

  The printing unit 21 prints information on the small belt k when sealing 100 sheets of small sheets k and when using less than 100 sheets of stacked paper sheets. Information is printed on different parts of the small band k at different timings.

  That is, when used for sealing 100 sheets of stacked paper sheets, as shown in FIG. 2, when 100 sheets of stacked paper sheets are sealed, the upper surface side which is the first part of the small band k The information 26 is printed so as to be located at the position. In addition, when used for sealing paper sheets accumulated with less than 100 sheets, as shown in FIG. 5, when less than 100 sheets of accumulated paper sheets are sealed, the second part of the small band k The information 26 is printed so that a part of the information 26 is located on the side surface side. That is, the first part and the second part of the small band k are displaced along the winding direction of the small band k.

  Accordingly, the printing position of information is shifted between the sealing handle of less than 100 sheets and the sealing handle of 100 sheets, and the information 26 is printed when viewed from the lateral direction. I understand that.

  As a result, as shown in FIG. 3, when the sealing knobs are stacked in the shape of 10 bundles as shown in FIG. 3, which sealing knobs are wound with less than 100 sheets when viewed from the side. It can be easily discriminated visually.

  As described above, according to this embodiment, when the information 26 is printed on the small band k used for sealing the normally stacked 100 sheets, the information is printed on the lateral side portion of the small bundle. In the case of the small band k used for sealing with less than 100 sheets, the print position is shifted, and the print t is printed so that it protrudes from the side of the corner. In addition, it is possible to visually confirm less than 100 small bundles from the lateral direction, and it becomes easy to distinguish less than 100 small bundles, so that the processing efficiency of the subsequent process can be improved.
