Definitions

  • the invention relates to the processing of securities, in particular banknotes.
  • the banknotes are extracted from a cassette and then driven in translation by a roller conveyor. They then arrive on a group of one or more impellers. Each ticket enters an inter-blade space. The movement of the wheel brings it to a receptacle where the banknote will abut, almost flat, to stack with other banknotes. The battery thus obtained is finally delivered to the user.
  • the present invention provides a device of another kind.
  • the mobile assembly comprises, for each idler roller, a support in the general shape of a coated U, one end of which is mounted for independent rotation coaxially with the central roller, while the other supports the idler roller for free rotation, l opening of the U being turned towards the conveyor in said waiting position.
  • the central roller and the moving element are driven by a belt, preferably a toothed belt, respectively permanently and on command.
  • the moving part can comprise two idle diametrically opposed rollers, or three idle rollers regularly distributed at 120 °.
  • the control means advantageously consist of at least one stepping motor, for precisely controlling the angular displacement of the moving element.
  • It includes a title detector placed downstream of the idle roller standby position, in a predetermined position.
  • the elastic return of the idler roller towards the central roller is adjusted according to the thickness and the rigidity of the titles.
  • the reference 1 designates the outlet of a roller conveyor, which carries a ticket B.
  • a roller conveyor which carries a ticket B.
  • the last train of rollers consisting of four pairs of rollers each comprising an upper roller 10 and a lower roller 10 , with a specific suffix for each pair.
  • Such a dispenser is intended for several types of tickets. It is designed for banknotes with the largest dimensions.
  • one or more impellers are mounted on the shaft of a motor 40, which may be a stepping motor.
  • a motor 40 which may be a stepping motor.
  • three paddle wheels 5-1 to 5-3 only the blades of the wheel 5-1 being represented schematically, to simplify the drawing.
  • the banknote stacking and bundling receptacle consists mainly of two blanks 61 and 62. They form an angle close to 90 between them.
  • the vertical blank 61 is indented at 61-1, 61-2 and 61-3 to allow the passage of the three impellers 5-1 to 5-3.
  • FIG. 2 illustrates in more detail one of the banknote transfer members capable of replacing the impellers, on its axis 7.
  • This axis 7 supports a roller for toothed belt 79 and a so-called "central” roller 70.
  • This assembly can therefore rotate freely, driven by the roller 79.
  • the drive is done at constant speed, and can be provided by a stepping motor, or by a regulated direct current motor, or in direct connection with the transport upstream ticket.
  • the movable assembly which comprises a front flange 80-A, the latter secured to a roller 89 suitable for driving by toothed belt, and a rear flange 80-R.
  • These flanges include three brackets, distinguished by the suffixes 1, 2 and 3. We will only describe one of them.
  • brackets consist of side blanks 91-1 and 92-1, joined by a spacer 93-1.
  • brackets 91-1 and 92-1 define a shape of a lying U, open here to the left.
  • the brackets 91-1 and 92-1 define the upper part of the U. Near their free end, they support a peripheral roller 90-1. The axis of this roller is recalled towards the central roller 70 by elastic strips such as 94-1, and its rear counterpart which is best seen in 94-2 on the suffixed crew 2.
  • the drawing also shows, in 95-2 and 96-2, supports for the axes incorporated in brackets 91-2 and 92-2, respectively.
  • This mobile assembly therefore consists of three idle rollers, mounted on their respective brackets, and resiliently recalled by the springs 94 towards the central roller 70, under controlled force.
  • part of the device will pass through the notches such as 61-1 to 61-3, formed in the vertical blank of the dressed receptacle, as illustrated in FIG. 1 for the prior art.
  • the central roller can be driven at constant speed by a stepping motor or by a DC motor or by direct drive with the upstream transport. Its drive does not necessarily have to be synchronized with that of the peripheral roller, as soon as the speed is properly stabilized.
  • the central roller 70 is split in 70A and 70B and driven, via the pulley 79, by the rollers 83 and 86 of the input conveyor.
  • the mobile equipment consists of brackets 91.92 and idler rollers 90A and 90B also split.
  • a roller 89 formed on the bracket 92 is driven by a toothed belt 75 from a drive roller 78 mounted on a shaft 77.
  • Controlled drive means MC act on the shaft 77 to carry out the drive of the brackets such as 92 and therefore rollers such as 90A and 90B.
  • These drive means are for example a stepping motor, associated with an open loop drive servo.
  • FIGS. 5A to 5F Reference is now made to FIGS. 5A to 5F.
  • the axis of the idler roller 90 is substantially vertical to the axis of the central roller 70, so that the point of tangency between these two rollers is substantially in the axis of output of the input conveyor tickets 1 ( Figure 1).
  • the central roller 70 rotates at constant speed, and consequently drives the idler roller 90 to rotate at the same linear speed, its axis however remaining stationary.
  • a ticket B arrives at the same linear speed, and engages between the two rollers 90 and 70. It is recalled that the pressure of the roller 90 on the roller 70 is adjusted by the springs 94, taking into account the thickness and the rigidity of the tickets.
  • the ticket B has advanced, and its right end reaches the point where a detector D operates.
  • This detector is located in a predetermined position relative to the standby position of the roller 90. Its location is preferably provided outside the area where the brackets 91 and 92 operate. It can be a banknote detector arranged in the manner of a photoelectric barrier, or better of a banknote detector by reflection of an optical signal, for example.
  • the roller 90 is then driven by its mobile assembly at an angular speed greater than that of the central roller 70.
  • the means described in connection with FIGS. 3 and 4 therefore enter in office.
  • the axis of the roller 90 will then now progress towards the right end of the ticket B, while the roller 90 nevertheless rolls on the central roller 70, and therefore continues to ensure with it the maintenance of the ticket.
  • the angular speed imparted to the mobile assembly 90 is adjusted so that, in the position of FIG. 5E, the roller 90 has passed the right end of the bill, which is therefore then released, but in a position where it will be able to tilt to fall onto the bottom of receptacle 62.
  • roller 90 which, with part of the movable assembly and the central roller 70, will have passed through a notch in the blank 61, will return at high speed to the waiting position illustrated in FIG. 5F.
  • the device according to the invention is particularly advantageous in that it allows the processing of many types of tickets with a simple, space-saving system, practically requiring only a presence detector, and above all permanently ensuring the maintenance of the ticket. until it is placed in the receptacle 6.
