Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a device for accepting and outputting value documents and to a method for accepting and paying out value documents.
  • value documents are understood leaf-shaped objects that represent, for example, a monetary value or an authorization and therefore should not be arbitrarily produced by unauthorized persons. They therefore have features which are not easy to manufacture, in particular to be copied, whose presence is an indication of the authenticity, i. the manufacture by an authorized agency.
  • Important examples of such value documents are coupons, vouchers, checks and in particular banknotes.
  • a peculiarity of such value documents, in particular of banknotes, compared to new paper or stationery, is that their state, for example, by kinks, wrinkles, dog-ears or a considerable limpness, can vary widely.
  • Devices of the type mentioned above can be used in particular in payment devices, which serve that a person pays an invoice amount to the payment device using various means of payment, in particular coins and banknotes.
  • Such payment devices should as far as possible be usable without personnel who are waiting for these devices.
  • the devices should allow as many payment transactions without interference.
  • value documents Due to the peculiarity of value documents, in particular banknotes, their machine transport in devices for accepting and issuing documents of value, but is prone to failure.
  • value documents can be transported in isolated form with not very high susceptibility to failure by means of belt transport systems, but is either the mechanical Expenditure to transport very high or the susceptibility to the desired application still too high.
  • the present invention is therefore based on the object to provide a device for acceptance and intermediate storage of value documents, which has a low susceptibility to interference with a simple structure, and to provide corresponding methods.
  • a device at least for the acceptance and intermediate storage of value documents with an acceptance device for accepting value documents, a checking device for checking the value documents on type and authenticity according to predetermined test criteria, a storage device for storing accepted, recognized as genuine value documents, the at least two Memory for value documents, a buffer for temporarily storing at least one checked by the testing device value document, which is reciprocated between different predetermined intermediate storage positions at least by rotation or pivoting, the intermediate storage positions an acceptance position in which the at least one document of value from the testing device in the Intermediate memory can be transported and cached there, and at least two, the position of the memory of the memory device corresponding memory positions, in which the at least one value document, when buffered in the buffer, is movable from the buffer into the memory corresponding to the memory position and storable there, comprising drive means for moving the buffer between the buffer positions and a control means dependent on the result of the buffer Examination of a value document by means of the test device, the drive means so controls that this moves the buffer with the at least one checked value document from
  • the device is provided for the acceptance and intermediate storage, preferably also the output of value documents of predetermined types. These can be, in particular, vouchers and banknotes. In particular, it may be provided for banknotes of various types, for example predetermined denominations of one or more currencies.
  • the components of the device are then designed so that they can process value documents of the given types.
  • the temporary storage is used for temporary recording by means of the checking device of certified value documents.
  • the examination of the value documents need not be completed in the recording process, but it is sufficient that the testing device has detected at least one property of the value document, which is used to test the value document.
  • the evaluation of the detection result can, even after the execution of the tester, also take place during the intermediate storage, but is preferably completed during the intermediate storage.
  • the buffer is rotated or pivoted between various buffer positions relative to the checking device and the storage device.
  • intermediate storage positions a transport of a value document between the intermediate storage and at least one corresponding transport path section of the testing device or the receiving device or the storage device can take place, so that a transport from the acceptance device via the checking device to the intermediate storage or between the intermediate storage and the storage device is possible.
  • the intermediate storage position for the acceptance of value documents from the acceptance or checking device is the acceptance position, while the intermediate storage positions for the exchange of value documents with the storage device are the storage positions.
  • the drive device which is controlled by the control device as a function of the result of the check of a value document, so that the intermediate store occupies a suitable intermediate storage position for further processing, serves to move the buffer.
  • the control device can control the drive device after checking an accepted value document so that it moves the buffer with the at least one checked value document from the acceptance position in one of the other intermediate storage positions.
  • the rotatable or pivotable buffer simultaneously fulfills at least two functions. On the one hand, it serves as a buffer and on the other hand as a means of transport, which allows a very interference-proof transport of value documents regardless of their state. Once valuable documents have entered the intermediate storage without interference, they can be transported in this to the storage device. In addition, it allows the distribution to the memory, so that can be dispensed with a suitable design of the device on switches for distributing the value documents on the memory of the memory device, which further increases the reliability.
  • control device can be further configured so that it controls the drive means so that value documents at least two various predetermined types that are stored in the memory device, there are stored separately by types.
  • one type of a value document is understood as meaning, in particular, also the currency, preferably in combination with the denomination of the banknote.
  • This embodiment advantageously permits a storage of the value documents which is separate according to types, in the case of banknotes, in particular according to denominations, which considerably simplifies re-issuing of the value documents or permits removal in sorted form.
  • the buffer may be mounted such that its movement as a result is a combination of a pivotal movement and a movement of the center of gravity of the buffer along a predetermined curve.
  • the buffer is rotatably or pivotably mounted about a pivot axis. This embodiment allows a particularly space-saving design of the device and in particular a simple storage with a simple drive.
  • the at least two memories of the memory device can be arranged as desired, as long as a transport of value documents from the buffer into the memory of the memory device is possible.
  • the memories are arranged along a curved curve, preferably along a circular arc.
  • An arrangement of the memories along a curved curve is understood to mean, in particular, that memory interfaces of the memories, by means of which documents of value can be respectively supplied to the memories or value documents can be output therefrom, are arranged along this curve. This not only allows the aforementioned storage of the cache, but Also very short transport distances from the test device in the memory of the storage device.
  • the buffer can in principle be constructed as desired.
  • the buffer has at least one holding device for holding or temporarily storing only a single value document.
  • the holding device can be constructed in very different ways.
  • the buffer may preferably have at least two elements as a holding device, between which the value document to be buffered is movable and is then held clamped by it.
  • these may be movable relative to each other and be movable by a drive.
  • corresponding pairs of rollers, endless belts or belts can be used as elements, of which preferably one or one is driven by the drive.
  • the holding device has only one pair of rollers or rollers which form a gap through which the document of value is transported so far that the buffer between the intermediate storage positions can be moved back and forth, and in which the document of value can be held during the rotation or pivoting of the buffer.
  • the buffer can have a plurality of holding devices for only one document of value at a time.
  • control means may be preferably further designed so that, as soon as the document of value is stored in the buffer, the drive means so that the buffer is moved from the acceptance position, even if the examination of the document of value by the test device still Not is completed.
  • the buffer can then take over as a further function of a so-called evaluation route, ie a section in which a document of value is before the examination of the same is completed and can be decided on the further treatment of the value document.
  • the holding device comprises a transport device with which a value document from a feed interface of the buffer, by which a value document can be supplied to a distance from this arranged discharge interface through which a value document from this can be issued, is transportable.
  • an interface in connection with the storage device or the intermediate storage means an opening or a gap or a transport or guide device, by means of which or from which a value document can be fed or delivered to the intermediate storage or storage device.
  • This design allows the document of value to be picked up by the delivery interface and returned to the delivery interface, which would otherwise require rotation or pivoting of the buffer at the smallest angle included by the delivery and delivery interfaces, but which may be greater than 90 °.
  • a transfer to at least one of the memories of the memory device can be significantly accelerated.
  • the angle between the feed interface and the output interface is greater than 90 °, preferably in the range between 175 ° and 185 °, the vertex of the angle being on the axis of rotation.
  • the holding device has as elements a conveyor belt or conveyor belt pair and / or transport roller pairs which form or form a transport path leading from the feed interface to the discharge interface.
  • control device can preferably be further configured to control the transport device of the holding device in such a way that it transports a value document received by the feed interface, preferably by rotating or swiveling the temporary store, through the delivery interface.
  • the buffer can be designed, in particular, to hold at least two value documents and to deliver the cached value documents temporarily. This allows a faster acceptance and storage of value documents, since the cache does not need to be moved after each acceptance of a checked value document in the appropriate storage position and back to the acceptance position.
  • the buffer can have a plurality of separate memories for individual value documents. These can each be given in particular by holding devices, as described above.
  • the buffer for receiving the at least two value documents has a memory which is designed so that value documents last supplied to the memory are to be delivered first.
  • a winding store can be used as the store.
  • winding storages are understood in particular to mean storages for sheet-like objects in which they are wound up separately by at least one film layer. Frequently, the objects are guided between two foil strips or strips, which are stored on a reel for storage and unwound to be dispensed therefrom.
  • Such memories are basically known and, for example, in US 5 533 627 or DE 10135542 A1 described.
  • the memory serves only as a cache, this is preferably designed to hold only less than 20 documents of value. This not only has the advantage that the memory can be cheaper, but also allows a compact design of the buffer and a fast mobility by the thus reduced moment of inertia of the buffer.
  • control device is preferably further adapted to detect an end of an input of value documents, and to drive the drive means so that the buffer only after the end of the input from the acceptance position is moved to one of the other positions.
  • the detection of an end of the input can be done in particular by checking whether, after a predetermined period of time after the last signal of the test device or a transport monitoring sensor between input and test device, a further signal is detected, which was caused by the detection of a value document.
  • control device is preferably further designed to control the drive device and preferably also the buffer corresponding to at least one determined during the test property of the cached value documents and the order of the cached value documents in the isolated delivery from the buffer so that the buffer sequentially in the Properties corresponding intermediate storage positions is moved and there at least one cached in the buffer value document is delivered.
  • the memory device can in principle have any memory for the accepted value documents.
  • the at least two memories of the storage device are preferably designed not only for the storage, but also for the isolated delivery of stored value documents.
  • the at least two memories can in principle be any suitable memory, for example stack memories with a singler.
  • at least one of the at least two memories of the memory device is a winding store.
  • the use of the winding store offers the advantage that a particularly reliable assumption and, in particular, delivery of documents of value can be achieved which have a poor condition, for example a high level of limpness.
  • an output device is preferably provided for outputting value documents to a user.
  • the intermediate memory positions can then comprise an output position in which the at least one value document stored in the intermediate memory can be transported to the output device and output there to a user.
  • the dispensing device may be an opening in a housing of the device, through which the value document is dispensed directly from the buffer.
  • the control device can then be designed, in particular, to control the drive device as a function of an amount to be paid out in value documents in such a way that value documents to be output are stored from the storage device into the temporary storage device and delivered to the output device after it has been rotated or pivoted.
  • control device may preferably be designed to control the drive device in such a way that the buffer store is moved into the delivery position and a value document temporarily stored therein and transported to the output device during the check by means of the checking device is not transported. This allows a simple return of non-processable value documents to a payer.
  • the device may have a retention memory for storing non-reissued value documents.
  • the predetermined positions of the buffer then include a restraint memory position in which the at least one cached value document is movable into the restraint memory.
  • a value-document interface of the retention store by means of which value documents can be supplied, may preferably be arranged on the curved curve.

  • the device preferably has an end memory device for storing value documents; the intermediate storage positions may then comprise a final storage position in which the at least one value document stored in the temporary storage can be delivered to the final storage device.
  • the final memory device preferably a corresponding cassette, all recognized as real or not wrong value documents can be stored, which can not or no longer be stored in the memory device.
  • banknotes of very high denominations can be stored therein, which at most in rare cases due to their high denomination for re-issue Exceptional cases appear and for which accordingly no memory is provided in the memory device.
  • the storage can be sorted by denominations or preferably mixed.
