Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a banknote accumulator that incorporates the functions of storing from an entry a determined number of banknotes in independent compartments, one per banknote, and that of returning the selected banknotes through the same entry channel.
  • the accumulator of the invention comprises a cylindrical and rotating storage drum, and a banknote feeder-extractor device, whose storage drum is internally subdivided, by means of movable partitions, forming cells each one of which a banknote can be introduced in and extracted from by means of the aforementioned banknote feeder-extractor device.
  • the accumulator of the invention belongs to the field of apparatus that store banknotes temporarily, after being measured and validated by a previous device. Every banknote is unitarily and individually stored from the rest of the stored banknotes, thus allowing individual access to each one of them to be issued as cash or prize, as in the case of a slot machine.
  • the object of the present invention is a banknote accumulator/dispenser which has the characteristic of storing a determined number of banknotes in a minimum space, keeping random access to each one of the banknotes, all this maintaining great simplicity and operational safety, which makes it possible to create a low cost device, of reduced dimensions, and therefore, adaptable to different applications in which the required space and the cost of the device are significant limitations.
  • the device of the invention comprises a cylindrical storage wherein, by means of movable partitions, different cavities are formed to store each admitted banknote unitarily, with the characteristic that the banknote is stored from the surface towards the interior of the cylinder according to a spiral trajectory.
  • the partitions are constituted by blades of arched longitudinal design arranged between the flat walls of the drum, from their periphery, directed towards the interior of said drum according to equally inclined trajectory. Between consecutive blades, chambers of arched and inclined trajectory are delimited.
  • the blades can toggle around a joint axis parallel to the axis of the drum, between maximum inclination positions towards the interior and of maximum inclination towards the exterior. In the first mentioned position, the one of maximum inclination towards the interior, each blade remains detached from the blade located immediately next to it, allowing the input or the output of a banknote from the cell delimited between both blades.
  • each cell destined to the housing of a banknote, remains limited or formed between two consecutive blades.
  • these blades occupy the position of maximum inclination towards the exterior, they lean against each other retaining the banknote housed in the cell, while the preceding blade, of the two that constitute the cell, occupies the position of maximum inclination towards the interior, remains detached from the next blade, thus allowing the input and output of a banknote.
  • the blades are pushed into the position of maximum inclination towards the exterior by means of a spring.
  • the blades remain mounted between the flat walls of the drum according to a joint axis that is located next to the external end of the blades.
  • the joint axis of consecutive blades remain located at a smaller distance than the length of said blades, said blades being of bigger length than the distance between the mentioned joint axis and the central nucleus of the drum.
  • the blades will run through the interior of the drum according to spiral trajectories delimiting, between two consecutive blades, cells with the same trajectory.
  • the blades will be limited by longitudinally arched edges that are located in parallel plans to the walls of the drum, and by internal and external cross edges, preferably straight, the joint axis of each blade being near and parallel to the cross external edge.
  • the blades have an elastically flexible sheet of equal width that protrudes from the cross internal edge of said blades, following the curvature of the internal surface thereof, said sheet working as a guide for the banknotes in the interior area of the cells.
  • This flexible sheet will not reach the central nucleus of the drum, at least when the blade occupies the position of maximum inclination towards the exterior.
  • the blades will comprise protuberances in their convex and concave surfaces that in the position of maximum inclination towards the exterior, lean onto the opposite surface of the adjoining blades, clamping the banknote housed in the cells limited by one blade and another.
  • the feeder-extractor device of the accumulator of the invention consists in a motor-driven carriage that comprises rollers or drag belts for banknotes and that is set near to the periphery of the drum.
  • This carriage toggles between an idle or inactive position, in which the rollers or drag belts remain detached from said drum, and an active position, in which the rollers or drag belts lean against the external section of a blade and push it to the position of maximum inclination towards the interior.
  • the motor-driven carriage adds two drive motors, one for the toggling thereof and another to drive the rollers or drag belts.
  • the storage also comprises a motor to constantly position a determined cell in front of the motor-driven carriage, which performs the functions of introducing and extracting the banknote from the selected cell in its active position by means of the rollers or drag belts.
  • the rollers or drag belts can be used for dragging or displacing the banknotes towards a determined position, external to the drum, for example a storage with non-return possibilities.
  • the rollers or drag belts of the motor-driven carriage will be driven by a gear motor with bidirectional rotation.
  • the rollers or drag belts guide a banknote towards the selected cell, while the end of the transport system leans onto the convex side of the entry blade towards the cell, causing an angular displacement thereof to the position of maximum inclination towards the interior, which allows the access to said cell.
  • the motor-driven carriage introduces the banknote and removes the support over the blade, clamping the banknote in its cell avoiding possible accidental displacements when the drum rotates to other positions.
  • the banknote stored in a cell adopts a perceptively spiral trajectory from the exterior to the interior of the cylinder thanks to the shape of the blades and to the flexible sheet thereof. This design is especially advantageous regarding the volume occupied by the drum and the simplicity of the mechanism.
  • the drag carriage used has bidirectional rotation, allowing the opposite option, i.e. extracting a banknote from a determined selected cell.
  • Figure 2 is a perspective of the drum of the accumulator, in which the front wall has been suppressed to show the interior thereof.
  • Figure 3 is a rear perspective of the storage drum.
  • Figure 4 is a perspective of the motor-driven carriage that constitutes the banknote feeder-extractor device.
  • Figure 5 is a front elevation view of the storage drum, without the front wall thereof, showing an intermediate position of a banknote in the introduction or extraction phase thereof from a cell.
  • Figure 6 is a similar view to that of figure 5 , showing the position that the banknotes adopt within the storage drum when the motor-driven carriage is in inactive or idle position.
  • Figure 7 is a similar view to that of figure 6 , showing the direction of a banknote towards a second storage orientation.
  • Figure 8 shows an exterior perspective of one of the blades that delimit the cells of the storage drum.
  • Figure 9 shows an interior perspective of the same blade of figure 8 .
  • a mechanism for dealing with banknotes that comprises a banknote reader 1, in charge of the reading and validation of introduced banknotes, and a storage drum 2 that belongs to the accumulator of the invention. Between the banknote reader 1 and the storage drum 2, it can be convenient to insert a conveyor 3, to conveniently direct the banknotes to said drum.
  • the mechanism is completed with a banknote feeder-extractor device, constituted by a motor-driven carriage 4, and by a gear motor 5 of bidirectional rotation that performs the function of positioning the storage drum 2 angularly.
  • the storage drum 2 defines a cylindrical hole that remains limited between parallel flat walls 6, from which their front wall has been suppressed, and a central nucleus 7, leaving the drum open at its periphery.
  • the blades of arched longitudinal design 8 are mounted within this drum, and as better appreciated in figures 7 and 8 , they present a convex external surface, referenced as number 9, and a concave internal surface 9'.
  • the blades are limited by arched longitudinal edges 10, located in parallel plans to the walls 6 of the drum, and by external cross edges 11 and straight internal edges 12.
  • Each blade 8 has an elastically flexible sheet 13, of equal width as the blade and it follows the curvature of the internal surface 9' thereof.
  • the blades 8 are set within the storage drum 2, between the walls 6 thereof and as from its periphery, directed towards the interior thereof according to equal inclined trajectories, delimiting every two consecutive blades a chamber 14 of arched and inclined trajectory, equal to that of the blades 8.
  • the banknote 18 contained in each cell 14 is trapped or clamped between consecutive blades, thus preventing the accidental displacement of the banknote.
  • the blades 8 have in the convex surface, figure 8 , protuberances 19 and in the concave surface, in adjacent position to the external cross edge 11, protuberances 20, figure 9 , clamping between one another the banknotes 18 when the blades occupy the position of maximum inclination towards the exterior, shown in figure 6 .
  • the blades 8 are constantly pushed to the position of maximum inclination towards the exterior by means of a spring, as it will be discussed further on in relation to figure 3 , while the motor-driven carriage 4 displaces them to the position of maximum inclination towards the interior.
  • This carriage, figure 4 is mounted having the possibility of toggling around an axis defined by the aligned pivots 22, and it comprises rollers or drag belts 23 driven by means of a gear motor 24 of bidirectional rotation.
  • the carriage 4 can toggle, around the axis defined by the aligned pivots 22, between an inoperative position, shown in figure 6 , in which the rollers or belts 23 remain detached from the blades 8, and an active position, shown in figure 5 , in which the rollers or drag belts 23 lean and push the blade 8' to the position of maximum inclination towards the interior.
  • the blades 8 adopt a vane shape, convex on their external side and concave on their internal side, and are set in the drum according to a spiral trajectory, delimiting chambers 14 with equal trajectory.
  • the carriage 4 toggles towards the inactive position shown in figure 6 , in which blade 8' recovers the 8 position of maximum inclination towards the exterior, in which the corresponding banknote 18 remains clamped between the two blades.
  • an intermediate pivot 26 protrudes from one of the arched edges 10 of each blade 8, and is introduced through a radial slot 27, figures 3 , 5 and 6 , which the opposite wall 6 of the drum 2 presents in facing position.
  • the length of this slot and more particularly its internal cross edge constitutes a stop that limits the displacement of the intermediate pivot 26 of the blade towards the interior and also limits the displacement of said blade, defining the maximum inclination position towards the interior of the blade.
  • a spring 28 leans against all the intermediate pivots 26 of the blades that pushes them towards the external end of the slots 27, displacing the blades to their position of maximum inclination towards the exterior, wherein the slots 27, of arched design with a centre that coincides with the joint axis defined by the pivots 15 of the corresponding blade and run in radial direction, lean against the blade located immediately next to it, figure 2 .
  • the flexible sheet of the blades acts as a guide in the trajectory which the banknote 18 has to describe, as it can be observed in figure 6 , trajectory which will ideally correspond to that described by blades 8, spiral-like towards the interior of the storage drum 2, trajectory which is advantageous because of the volume optimization of the accumulative device.
  • FIG 6 it is shown the position ideally adopted by the banknotes 18 in the interior of the storage drum, in which all the banknotes remain clamped between the two blades that delimit each chamber, clamping which is secured by means of protuberances 19 and 20 of the blades, described in reference to figures 7 and 8 .
  • the rollers or drag belts 23 can lead the banknotes 18 to another direction, figure 7 , in which for example a non-return storage can be found, not represented.
  • the process of banknote extraction is opposite to the storage one.
  • the gear motor 5, figure 1 will position the storage drum 2 in a determined cell in relation to the motor-driven carriage 4.
  • Optical detectors not represented, will be mounted in order to detect the angular position of the drum 2.
  • the motor-driven carriage 4 will rotate angularly to its active position of figure 5 , leaning onto the convex side of blade 8' of the selected cell, displacing it to the position of maximum inclination towards the interior.
  • the rollers or drag belts 23 will be activated, by means of the gear motor 24, figure 4 , causing the extraction of the banknote stored in the corresponding cell 14'.
