Definitions

  • the invention relates to devices and a method for stamping sheet material in a cassette.
  • a cassette in which banknotes are deposited has an upper housing wall with a passage opening in the middle, through which the banknotes are pressed by means of a punch into the cassette housing against a base plate which is spring-mounted in the cassette.
  • the stamped banknotes are retained by the surrounding the passage opening edge of the upper housing wall, which serves as a hold-down inside the cassette.
  • the stamp has as a stamp surface, which presses on the banknotes, a stamp plate whose dimensions are slightly smaller than the dimensions of the passage opening of the upper cassette wall, through which the banknotes are stamped into the cassette.
  • a disadvantage of the known system is that the passage opening of the cassette must always be smaller than the smallest banknote to be stamped, so that it is not pressed out again by the spring-mounted base plate from the cassette.
  • the banknotes to be stamped rest freely on the upper cassette wall, so that they arch up by pressing the stamp on the central region of the top banknote at the edge regions and can be pushed through the passage opening into the cassette interior.
  • the banknotes to be stamped it may eventually tip over if the banknotes of differing dimensions in the stack are too unevenly distributed and prevent orderly placement of the banknotes in the cassette.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to provide devices and a method for stamping sheet material into a cassette with which the abovementioned disadvantages, which inevitably result from the known concept, can be avoided.
  • the present invention is based on the knowledge that the punch surface of a punch having one or more recesses and / or through holes may have substantially larger dimensions than in the known system, thereby allowing a safe and effective stamping inside the cartridge to be used.
  • the known stamp for the reasons mentioned above must always be smaller than the smallest felicitstkovnde sheet of the sheet material, this restriction is lifted in an embodiment of the invention and the stamp may well have larger dimensions, for example, even larger than the largest utilizatstkovnde sheet. Consequently, another basic aspect of the present invention is also that the cassette may have an opening which is larger than the smallest sheet material to be stamped.
  • a hold-down device is preferably pushed into the cassette after the sheets have been stamped in order to retain the sheets in the cassette.
  • the hold-down device will particularly preferably have a finger structure.
  • the punch may be larger than in the known case in which the stamp size by always as part of Cassette existing hold-down is limited.
  • the stamp By a retractable and retractable hold-down, it is also possible for the first time that the sheets, regardless of their size, can be introduced without deformation in a cassette, whereby damage to the leaves can be safely avoided.
  • the stamp also needs to penetrate much less deeply into the cassette for stamping into the cassette, thereby significantly increasing the effective area for destacking in the cassette.
  • the inventive form of a punch with recess or through hole creates the prerequisite for holding the sheets by a clamping element for securing an orderly stamping operation in the Einstempelposition or to be able to clamp from which they are stamped by means of a punch in the cassette.
  • the recesses or through holes of the punch are advantageously designed so that the stamp on the clamping element over, or the clamping element in its recesses receiving, can press on the constructivestempelnden sheets, which are held by the clamping element.
  • the clamping element e.g. includes one or more rigidly interconnected clamping fingers that press from the top of the sheet stack, be a part of a stack carrier unit on which the sheets to be stamped and stacked transported to the punching position, as described in detail in the not yet published application DE 10121835.4 of the Applicant is described.
  • the stamp surface will be gimballed.
  • the stamping surface is not rigidly mounted in the plane perpendicular to the stamping direction, but in relation to this plane about a suspension point or a suspension axis, so that the stamping surface, the shape of the stack of sheet material, which it compresses or compresses, adapt and this safer stamping and / or can squeeze.
  • This variant is also advantageous regardless of the embodiment of the invention with recess or through hole advantageously applicable.
  • FIGS. 1 and 2 illustrate a first embodiment of a device 1 for stamping banknotes 2 into a cassette 3.
  • the device 1 may e.g. be used in an ATM with a deposit function for banknotes, as described in DE 10121835.4.
  • Banknotes 2 are thereby pressed by means of a punch 4 through an opening 5 in the top of the cassette 3 in this and against an underlying, sprung mounted base plate 6 and stored stacked.
  • the device 1 is particularly distinguished by the structure of the punch 4 and a hold-down 9, which serves for holding the stamped banknotes 2 in a predetermined space region of the cassette 3.
  • the punch 4 is configured as a scissors punch 4, which can be moved in height by moving a scissor-type attachment attached to its top.
  • the punch 4 has in its underside an example of two recesses 8, which run parallel to each other and perpendicular to the page plane of Figure 2.
  • the hold-down 9 has, approximately in the form of a fork, two fixedly secured to an end region hold-down rods 9 and is by an unillustrated electric motor drive in the region of the opening 5 of the cassette 3 in this horizontally on and extendable.
  • the distance between the two recesses 8, and the hold-down rods 9 from each other is chosen so that in each case a hold-down rod 9 can engage in one of the recesses 8 of the punch 4.
  • the cassette opening 5 has approximately a cross section corresponding to that of the Abstapel Schemees in the cassette, whereby the banknotes 2 can be stamped without bending.
  • the cassette opening 5 is closed by a cover 7, which has two recesses 10 in its underside, which have the same distance as the hold-down rods 9 with respect to each other.
  • the device according to FIGS. 1 and 2 is used as follows.
  • the initial situation at the beginning of a deposit operation in which banknotes 2 entered in the ATM are to be deposited in the cassette 3, is the following:
  • the lid 7 of the cassette 3 is opened to release the cassette opening 5.
  • the hold-down rods 9 are moved laterally in the region of the cassette opening 5 into the cassette 3, in order to prevent a coming out of banknotes 2 already in the cassette 3.
  • the punch 4 will slightly press the banknotes 2 resting on the hold-down rods 9, then the hold-down 9 will laterally be pulled out of the cassette 3 and the banknotes 2 will be pressed completely into the cassette 3 by the punch 4 as shown in FIG recognize.
  • the ATM Preferably, in the ATM not only a subsequently to be filled cassette, but at least one additional reserve cassette will be present.
  • two cassettes of the type described above to be detachably mounted on a turntable. By turning the turntable by 180 ° can either one or the other cassette with its upper opening in alignment with a transport system for transporting the wishesstkovnden sheets are brought.
  • a stamp 4 ' according to a further embodiment is shown in the perspective view of FIG. 3.
  • the stamp 4 ' is u.a. from a horizontal frame arm 11, on the underside of which six individual stamp elements 12 are mounted at a distance from each other.
  • the frame arm 11 with the stamp elements 12 is driven along a guide 15 driven by the motor H in height.
  • the stamp members 12 each have a recess 13, thereby having a cross section in the shape of an inverted U.
  • the effectively effective stamp surface is given in this case by the entire surface spanned by the individual U-legs of the stamp members 12.
  • the individual stamp elements 12 are advantageously fixable in each case at different points of the frame arm 11 in order to be able to vary the distance from adjacent stamp elements 12 relative to one another.
  • the punch 4 ' according to FIG. 3 has a gap 14 in the middle of the three outer and inner punch elements 12. This serves to be able to receive a clamping element which presses on the banknote stacks, when this is in the stamping position. Due to the gap 14, the punch 4 'can push the bank notes located in the stamping position into the cassette, whereby they are simultaneously secured, at least at the beginning of the stamping operation, by the clamping element against slipping or tilting.
  • the clamping element may be e.g. comprise one or more rigidly connected clamping fingers and be a part of a stack carrier unit on which the sheets to be stamped are stacked and transported to the punching position, as described in the applicant's unpublished application DE 10121835.4.
  • retraction of a hold-down device into a cassette is also to be understood as the case where the hold-down device acts as part of a cassette wall after retraction, ie the hold-down device constitutes an outer boundary of the cassette.
  • the hold-down can be moved only horizontally into and out of the cassette
  • the hold-down is particularly preferably also vertically displaceable in the cassette.
  • An advantage of this embodiment is that the hold down can thus easily press down the sheets stamped in the cassette and thus prevent the top sheets from being jammed or kinked when closing the cassette lid. In this case, can also be dispensed with the recesses 10 in the lid 4.
  • the solution according to the invention thus enables a secure stamping of sheet material which is effectively utilized for stacking inside the cassette.
