Wherein, bank note inserts mouthfuls 2, and the wide W of each coin, the U (scheme not shown) of wide different two kinds of bank note X, the Y of corresponding coin possess first bank note and insert mouthful 3 and second bank note and insert mouth 4.
Wherein first bank note inserts mouthfuls 3, and it inserts a mouthful width, is benchmark with the wide W of coin of the bank note X that has the narrower wide W of coin among two kinds of bank note X, Y, and is set at the also bigger value than the wide W of this coin.Second bank note inserts mouthfuls 4, and it inserts a mouthful width, is benchmark with the wide U of coin of the bank note Y of the wide U of coin that has broad among two kinds of bank note X, Y, and is set at the also bigger value than the wide U of this coin.
And bank note transfer path 5 has: be communicated with the first bank note transfer path 6 of first bank note insertion mouth 3 and be communicated with the second bank note transfer path 7 that second bank note inserts mouth 4.
This first bank note transfer path 6 and the second bank note transfer path 7 as shown in Figure 1, are respectively the bank note transfer path of section L font.And, this first bank note transfer path 6 and the second bank note transfer path 7, shown in Figure 2 as the AA line notion enlarged drawing of Fig. 1, the central portion of its Width all collaborates a common bank note transfer path 8.
And in each end of the Width of this bank note transfer path 8, the wide W of respectively corresponding described each coin, U form first guiding groove 9 and second guiding groove 10 up and down overlappingly.
In addition, the first bank note transfer path 6 when being formed by a pair of first guiding groove 9 and a bank note transfer path 8, is formed on this transfer path width between a pair of first guiding groove 9, the wide W of the coin of corresponding bank note X and be set at the bigger value than the wide W of this coin.
And, the second bank note transfer path 7, when forming by a pair of second guiding groove 10 and a bank note transfer path 8, the wide U of coin of the corresponding bank note Y of its transfer path width and be set at bigger value than the wide U of this coin.
And, form each first guiding groove 9 and each second guiding groove 10 by a guide member 60, and dispose a pair of guide member 60.And, in each first guiding groove 9, giving prominence to an end of first dwang 16 (aftermentioned) respectively, and in each second guiding groove 10, giving prominence to an end of second dwang 17 (aftermentioned) respectively.In addition, each first dwang 16 is supported on (Fig. 1) on the device body 50 freely to rotate by its middle body.And each second dwang 17 is supported on (Fig. 1) on the device body 50 freely to rotate by its middle body.
And, as Fig. 1 and shown in Figure 2, following closely on the bank note transfer path 3 that bank note inserts mouthfuls 2 back, disposing the inlet sensor 18 that detects wide different two kinds of bank note X, the Y of the coin that inserts.
This inlet sensor 18 has a pair of first inlet sensor 19 and a pair of second inlet sensor 20.
Wherein, each first inlet sensor 19 is formed at the two ends of the first bank note transfer path 6.And each first inlet sensor 19 is by light-emitting component and the sensor that is コ font section formed with the photo detector that this light-emitting component is separated by interval subtend setting certain.And each second inlet sensor 19 is by light-emitting component and the sensor that is コ font section formed with the photo detector that this light-emitting component is separated by interval subtend setting certain.
And, first dwang 16 and the first inlet sensor 19, second dwang 17 and the second inlet sensor 20, as shown in Figure 2, the wide W of coin, the U of corresponding respectively each bank note X, Y and disposing, the centre line L 1 of first dwang 16 and the centre line L 2 of second dwang 17 are not configured on the same straight line.
And, in the bank note transfer path 6 of Fig. 1, disposing the bank note conveyer of forming by the bank note travelling belt 22 of ring-type 21 in the downstream of inlet sensor 18.This bank note conveyer 21 by: along the described bank note travelling belt 22 of bank note transfer path 8 tensioning settings, belt wheel 23,24,25 that this bank note travelling belt 22 is rotated; These belt wheels 23,24,25 are applied the transmission motor not shown in the figures of driving force and constitute.
And shown in Figure 3 as the amplification profile of the BB line of Fig. 1 on bank note transfer path 8, disposing the recognition device 31 of the true and false separately of two kinds of bank note X, Y discerning different in width.This recognition device 31 is made up of a plurality of sensors 32.
And in the downstream of the bank note transfer path of Fig. 1, shown in Figure 4 as the amplification notion sectional view of the CC line of Fig. 1 extended described each guide member 60 that is being provided with from the upstream configuration of bank note transfer path 5.On this each guide member 60, extension is being provided with described first guiding groove 9 and described second guiding groove 10 respectively.So, between a pair of first guiding groove 9, the wide W of coin that is formed with corresponding bank note X is with transfer path is wide when being set at than the bigger described first bank note transfer path 6 of value of the wide W of this coin, between a pair of second guiding groove 10, the wide U of coin that is formed with corresponding bank note Y is set at the bigger described second bank note transfer path 7 of value than the wide U of this coin with transfer path is wide.
In addition, a bank note transfer path 8 that forms at the central portion interflow of the width separately of the first bank note transfer path 6 and the second bank note transfer path 7, remove the receiving plate 8a, the 8b that constitute this bank note transfer path 8, open with the bank note press device 44 that is in piling device 41 fronts to piling device 41 inside thus.
Secondly, the action of above-mentioned bank note conveyer 1 is described, and its formation is described in detail.
As shown in Figure 2, in the original state of this bank note conveyer 1, an end of each first dwang 16 is projected in the first bank note transfer path 6.And the other end of each first dwang 16 is configured in the first inlet sensor 19, and covers the light between its light-emitting component and the photo detector, because this interception detects the bank note that does not have input in the first bank note transfer path 6.
In this original state, shown in the arrow D of Fig. 1 like that, the bank note X of coin width is inserted mouthfuls 3 from first bank note inserts.So, because first bank note inserts the throat width of mouth 3, set widelyer than the wide W of the coin of bank note X, so being inserted mouth 3 from first bank note, successfully inserts bank note X.
And after inserting bank note X, the front end of bank note X is directed into the first bank note transfer path 6.Then, after the front end of this bank note X arrives first dwang 16, as shown in Figure 5, this first dwang 16 is direction rotation of middle mind-set with its middle body, so a described end of first dwang 16 withdraws from a part from the first bank note transfer path 6, and the described other end of first dwang 16 is removed the shading to the first inlet sensor 19.And the first inlet sensor 19 detects the bank note that insertion is arranged by the releasing of this shading on the first bank note transfer path 6.
In addition, Fig. 5 is the amplification notion sectional view of action of expression bank note treatment device 1, especially represents the situation when bank note X arrives first dwang of the first bank note transfer path.
And after having detected the bank note insertion by the first inlet sensor 19, the said motor of the bank note conveyer 21 of Fig. 1 drives, so bank note travelling belt 22 just rotates to a direction via belt wheel 23,24,25.Therefore, bank note X is directed into the downstream of the first bank note transfer path 6 by bank note travelling belt 22 2.
And, when bank note X transmits in first transfer path 6, the Width both ends of bank note X are along this a pair of first guiding groove 9 channeling conduct in a pair of first guiding groove 9, and the substantial middle portion of the Width of bank note X is also along this bank note transfer path 8 channeling conduct in bank note transfer path 8.And because the width of the first bank note transfer path 6, wide W is a benchmark with the coin of bank note X, sets widelyer than the wide W of this coin, and therefore, the bank note X of guiding can not block in the first bank note transfer path 6.In addition, the symbol 26,27 of Fig. 5 and Fig. 1 is the driven vollers that are used to strengthen the bank note conveying capacity of bank note travelling belt 22.
And, as the amplification notion sectional view of the action of the bank note treatment device of presentation graphs 1, represent that especially bank note X arrives situation shown in Figure 6 of recognition device 31, after the bank note X that is directed arrives identification sensor 32, discerns the true and false of bank note X.At this moment, guiding the first bank note transfer path 6 of bank note X is benchmark owing to the setting of its width is wide with the coin of bank note X, bigger than this width of paper money W, therefore bank note X in the first bank note transfer path 6 along the activity possibility of its transfer path Width, compared with the past can preventing as much as possible.
So, become stable as far as possible fixing line by each the paper money recognition line when the identification sensor 32 identification bank note X, so compare, can prevent the mistake that in the paper money recognition result, produces as much as possible with bank note treatment device in the past.
And, in truth identification, when judging that bank note is the genuine note of bank note X, then continue to drive the bank note conveyer by 32 couples of bank note X of this identification sensor, bank note X further is directed to the downstream of the first bank note transfer path 6.In addition, after first dwang 16 was passed through in the rear end of bank note X, first dwang 16 was middle mind-set other direction rotation with this core, revert to the initial position of Fig. 2.
On the other hand, amplification notion sectional view as the action of the bank note treatment device of presentation graphs 1, especially represent that bank note X arrives situation shown in Figure 7 in the downstream of the first bank note transfer path, when bank note X is directed into the downstream of the first bank note transfer path 6, the Width two ends of bank note X are configured in respectively in a pair of first guiding groove 9, and the Width central portion of bank note X is configured in the bank note transfer path 8.
And, downstream at this first bank note transfer path 6, clamp this first bank note transfer path 6 and with the position of piling device 41 subtends on, disposing the press section 44a of bank note press device 44, arrive the assigned position in described downstream as bank note X after, stop the driving of the described CD-ROM drive motor of bank note conveyer 21, so, the transmission of 22 couples of bank note X of travelling belt stopped.Then, after the bank note press device 44 of Fig. 1 drives, as shown in Figure 8, the press section 44a of bank note press device 44 with the bank note of bank note X wide to substantial middle portion be pressed onto piling device 41 sides, therefore, the width of paper money direction central portion of bank note X is deviate from and to piling device 41 side shiftings from bank note transfer path 8, and also blows slowly and move to piling device 41 sides from a pair of first guiding groove 9 respectively in the transfer path Width two ends of bank note X.
Then as shown in Figure 9, final whole bank note X is accommodated in the piling device 41.
In addition, as shown in Figure 9, after bank note X was accommodated piling device 41, the press section 44a of bank note press device 44 revert to initial position as shown in Figure 7.
In addition, above-mentioned Fig. 7~Fig. 9 is the amplification profile of action of the bank note treatment device of presentation graphs 1.And the symbol 42 among Fig. 7~Fig. 9 and Figure 12~Figure 15 described later etc. is that the bank note X, the Y that are housed in piling device 41 applied the volute spring of spring force to bank note transfer path 8 one sides, and symbol 43 is directly to be pressed in plate on bank note X, the Y by volute spring 42.And described bank note press device 44 is known pantographic (pantograph) structure, therefore omits the detailed description to its structure and action.
And, in this bank note treatment device 1, downstream at the first bank note transfer path 6, also be benchmark with the width setup of the first bank note transfer path 6 with the wide W of the coin of bank note X to be than the bigger value of the wide W of this coin, even therefore when bank note X is disposed at the downstream of the first bank note transfer path 6, also can prevent the problem that this bank note X moves along its Width as much as possible in the first bank note transfer path 6.
So bank note X can compress the middle body of this width of paper money direction effectively, bank note X is housed in the piling device 41 effectively.So, by bank note treatment device 1 of the present invention, can solve as much as possible and handle multiple bank note X, the former bank note treatment device of Y is accommodated problem in the processing at bank note, promptly, in the past, because the width of paper money (for example width of paper money U) with the bank note wideer than the coin of bank note X (such as bank note Y) is a benchmark, form the width of bank note transfer path 5 than the also big ground of this width of paper money, therefore has the wide bank note (for example bank note X) in addition of the wideest described coin, in bank note transfer path 5, move along its Width, so, even the press section 44a by bank note press device 44 pushes, can not push the central portion of the Width of bank note X, thereby bank note X is positively accommodated in the piling device 41.
In addition, when the truth identification result by 31 couples of bank note X of described recognition device is counterfeit money, then the described CD-ROM drive motor of reverse drive bank note conveyer 21 so make bank note travelling belt 22 backward rotation by belt wheel 23,24,25, turns back to first bank note with bank note and inserts mouth 3.
Then, the situation that the wide bank note Y of coin is inserted describes.
In described original state shown in Figure 2, in the second bank note transfer path 7, a distal process of each second dwang 17 goes out.And the other end of each second dwang 17 is configured in the second inlet sensor 20, and covers the light between its light-emitting component and the photo detector, is detected the bank note that does not have insertion in the second bank note transfer path 7 by this interception.
In this original state, shown in the arrow E of Fig. 1, insert mouthful wide bank note Y of 4 insertion coin from second bank note.So second bank note inserts mouth 4, because its throat width is set at the bigger value than the wide U of the coin of bank note Y, therefore, bank note Y also can successfully insert mouth 4 from second and insert.
And after the bank note Y insertion, the front end of bank note Y is directed into the second bank note transfer path 7.Then, the front end of this bank note Y, after arriving second dwang 17, as shown in figure 10, this second dwang 17 is middle mind-set one direction rotation with its middle body, so the front end of second dwang 17 is made a concession a part from the second bank note transfer path 7, and remove of the described shading of the other end of second dwang 17 to the second inlet sensor 20.And second sensor 20 detects the bank note that insertion is arranged by the releasing of this shading in the second bank note transfer path 7.
In addition, Figure 10 is the amplification notion sectional view of the action of expression bank note conveyer 1, especially represents the situation when bank note Y arrives second dwang of the second bank note transfer path.
And, when detect insert by second bank note mouthfuls 20 the insertion of bank note is arranged after, the described CD-ROM drive motor of the bank note conveyer 21 of Fig. 1 drives, so, bank note travelling belt 22 rotates to a direction by means of belt wheel 23,24,25, therefore, bank note Y is directed to the downstream of the second bank note transfer path 7 by bank note travelling belt 22.
In addition, bank note Y is when the second bank note transfer path 7 transmits, the Width both ends of bank note Y are along the channeling conduct in a pair of first guiding groove 10 of a pair of first guiding groove 10, and the Width substantial middle portion of bank note Y guides in bank note transfer path 8 along this bank note transfer path 8.And because the width of the second bank note transfer path 7, wide U is a benchmark with the coin of bank note Y, is set at the bigger value than the wide U of this coin, and therefore the bank note Y that is directed can not produce obstruction in the second bank note transfer path 7.
And, as the amplification notion sectional view of the action of the bank note treatment device of presentation graphs 1, especially represent bank note Y arrive behind the recognition device situation as shown in Figure 11, after the bank note Y that is directed arrives identification sensor 32, the true and false of identification bank note Y.At this moment, the second bank note transfer path 7 of guiding bank note Y, because its width is a benchmark with the wide U of the coin of bank note Y, is set at the bigger value than the wide U of this coin, therefore can prevent as much as possible that bank note Y from moving at the transfer path Width in the second bank note transfer path 7.So, become stable as far as possible fixing line at identification line by each the bank note Y when the identification sensor 32 identification bank note Y, therefore, can prevent the error that in the recognition result of bank note Y, produces as much as possible.
And, in the truth identification of 32 couples of bank note Y of this identification sensor, when judging that bank note is the genuine note of bank note Y, then continue to drive bank note conveyer 21, further bank note Y is directed to the downstream of the second bank note transfer path 7.In addition, after second dwang 17 was passed through in the rear end of bank note, second dwang 17 was middle mind-set other direction rotation and the initial position that revert to Fig. 2 with its core.
And, amplification notion sectional view as the action of the bank note treatment device of presentation graphs 1, especially represent bank note Y arrive behind the downstream of the second bank note transfer path situation as shown in Figure 12, when bank note Y is directed to the downstream of the second bank note transfer path 7, the Width two ends of bank note Y, be configured in a pair of second guiding groove 10, and the Width central portion of bank note Y is configured in the bank note transfer path 8.
And, downstream at this bank note transfer path 7, on the position of clamping this second bank note transfer path 7 and piling device 41 subtends, disposing the press section 44a of bank note press device 44, arrive the described certain position in downstream of the second bank note transfer path 7 as this bank note Y after, then stop the driving of the described CD-ROM drive motor of bank note conveyer 21, so, the transmission of 22 couples of bank note Y of travelling belt stopped.Then, after driving the bank note press device 44 of Fig. 1, then as shown in figure 13, the press section 44a of bank note press device 44 is pressed into piling device 41 sides with the coin cross direction of bank note Y, therefore, the coin cross direction central portion of bank note Y is deviate from and is moved to piling device 41 sides from bank note transfer path 8, and also blows slowly respectively and move to piling device 41 sides from a pair of second guiding groove 10 in the transfer path Width two ends of bank note Y.
Then, as shown in figure 14, final bank note Y integral body is housed in the piling device 41.And as shown in figure 14, after bank note Y was accommodated in the piling device 41, the press section 44a of bank note press device 44 revert to the initial position of Figure 12.
In addition, in this bank note treatment device 1, downstream at the second bank note transfer path 7, because also being is benchmark with the wide U of the coin of bank note Y, with the width setup of the second bank note transfer path 7 is than the bigger value of the wide U of this coin, therefore when bank note Y is configured in the downstream of the second bank note transfer path 7, can prevent as much as possible that also this bank note Y from moving along its Width in the second bank note transfer path 7.So,, bank note Y is accommodated in the piling device 41 effectively even if wide bank note Y also can positively push the central portion of its width of paper money direction.
In addition, when the result by 31 pairs of bank note Y identifications of described recognition device is under the situation of counterfeit money, then the described CD-ROM drive motor of reverse drive bank note conveyer 21 so make bank note travelling belt 22 backward rotation by belt wheel 23,24,25, turns back to second bank note with bank note and inserts mouth 4.
And like this, in bank note treatment device 1, as shown in figure 15, bank note X and one piece of one piece of ground of bank note Y of being identified as genuine note can be accommodated in the same piling device 41.In addition, the amplification profile of the action of described Fig. 1 3~Figure 15 bank note treatment device that is presentation graphs 1.
As discussed above, in this bank note treatment device 1, the wide two kinds of different bank note X of corresponding coin, the wide W of various coin of Y, U, bank note is inserted mouth 2 form two, and will be communicated with these two bank note respectively and insert mouth, promptly first bank note inserts the first bank note transfer path 6 and the second bank note transfer path 7 that mouthful 3 and second bank note inserts mouth 4, the interflow is the common bank note transfer path 8 of the central portion of its Width, each end of Width at this bank note transfer path 8 forms the wide W of corresponding described each coin up and down overlappingly, first guiding groove 9 of U and second guiding groove 10, therefore, compare with bank note treatment device in the past, can be as the bank note Y of the wideest wide U of coin, prevent that as much as possible the bank note X with the wide U of this coin wide W of coin in addition from moving at Width in bank note transfer path 5, therefore, the identification line of the bank note X of the wide W of coin beyond the wide U of coin (becoming the line on the various bank note of identifying object) is stable.So,, can stably correctly carry out the identification of wide different two kinds of bank note X, the Y of coin by the bank note treatment device of this embodiment.
In addition, in the bank note treatment device of this embodiment, be the explanation of carrying out with the bank note treatment device 1 of handling wide different bank note X, the Y of two kinds of coin, but the bank note treatment device of this invention go for handling the bank note treatment device of the wide different bank note of two or more coin.In this case, as long as a plurality of bank note of the wide formation of coin of the wide different multiple bank note of corresponding described coin insert mouthful, and will be communicated with a plurality of these bank note transfer paths interflow that these a plurality of bank note insert mouthful and be one at the common bank note transfer path of the central portion of its Width, and it is just passable to form the wide guiding groove of corresponding described each coin up and down overlappingly in each end of Width of this bank note transfer path.And, so, can as having the wide bank note of the wideest coin,, also can prevent from the bank note transfer path, to move to Width for having the wide various bank note in addition of the wideest coin, therefore, for having the wide bank note of this wideest coin various bank note in addition, also can stablize the identification line that detects by identification sensor 32, thereby stably correctly carry out truth identification, and 44a positively pushes by the bank note press section, and positively accommodates in the piling device 41.
