  • the paper currency handling apparatus 1 has a paper currency handling unit 10 (unit for processing sheets of paper) disposed in a higher portion, a paper currency storage unit 30 (unit for receiving sheets of paper) disposed in a lower portion, and a control unit (not shown) controlling both units.
  • the paper currency handling unit 10 and the paper currency storage unit 30 are stored in such a way that these units 10 and 30 can be taken out of the enclosure 102 by opening the door 106 of the enclosure 102. Storage mechanisms of the paper currency handling unit 10 and the paper currency storage unit 30 will be described later.
  • FIG. 2 is a side elevation in cross section schematically showing the configuration of the paper currency handling apparatus 1.
  • the paper currency handling unit 10 has mechanisms necessary to exchange paper currencies with a user, and is equipped with a paper currency deposit-withdrawal slot 20, a paper currency discrimination portion 22, a temporal storage portion 23, an upper unit transport mechanism 26 for conveying paper currencies between various portions, and a connecting transport mechanism 27 for sending the paper currencies delivered from the upper unit transport mechanism 26 to the paper currency storage unit 30.
  • the paper currency deposit-withdrawal slot 20 has a money deposit portion permitting a user to make a deposit of paper currencies, a money payment portion for delivering paper currencies, and other portions.
  • the paper currency discrimination portion 22 is a mechanism that identifies or discriminates the denomination of each paper currency, makes a decision as to whether it is genuine or counterfeit, and judges whether or not it should be rejected and which outputs the results of the identification or discrimination to the control unit.
  • the configuration of the discrimination portion utilizes various kinds of information such as image data obtained by scanning each paper currency, topographical profile of the surface of the currency, magnetic characteristics, and optical characteristics responsive to ultraviolet radiation or the like.
  • a rejected paper currency is either a paper currency judged to be substandard as a result of a decision made as to whether it is genuine or counterfeit or a paper currency whose genuineness is not determined because a part of the paper currency is overlapped on another part or the paper currency is folded.
  • the temporal storage portion 23 is a mechanism that temporarily stores paper currencies during a process for conveying paper currencies between the paper currency deposit-withdrawal portion and the paper currency storage unit 30.
  • the upper unit transport mechanism 26 is a mechanism that transports paper currencies by rotationally driving rollers (not shown).
  • the transport mechanism has a deposit transport path 26a for transporting paper currencies inserted in the money deposit portion of the paper currency deposit-withdrawal slot 20, a withdrawal transport path 26b for paying out paper currencies into a money delivery portion, a discrimination transport path 26c for passing paper currencies through the paper currency discrimination portion 22, and a temporal storage transport path 26d for conveying paper currencies into the temporal storage portion 23.
  • the discrimination transport path 26c, the temporal storage transport path, and so on are designed to be capable of transporting paper currencies bidirectionally.
  • Gates (not shown) are disposed at the branching locations of the transport paths to switch the direction of transportation of paper currencies in the transport paths.

  • the paper currency storage unit 30 has a storage body 31 and a paper currency storage portion 32 (portion for accommodating sheets of paper).
  • the storage body 31 is a boxlike body having an open top side.
  • the paper currency storage portion 32 is received in the storage space within the storage body.
  • the paper currency storage portion 32 has five paper currency receiving sections 32a-32e which are substantially identical in configuration. Each receiving section has a storage box forming the paper currency storage space receiving paper currencies, rollers disposed on top of the storage portion, sensors, and so on.
  • Each of the paper currency receiving sections 32a-32e brings paper currencies sent from the paper handling unit 10 into the paper currency storage space and has a mechanism for conveying the received paper currencies bidirectionally relative to the paper currency handling unit 10 by means of a transport mechanism such as rollers.
  • Such paper currency receiving sections 32a-32e can treat different kinds of paper currencies in use. For example, these can be used as paper currency stocks for receiving 10,000 yen notes, 5,000 yen notes, 1,000 yen notes, and 2,000 yen notes or as reject storages for receiving paper currencies rejected as described above.
  • the connecting transport mechanism 27 has a main transport path 28 and auxiliary transport paths 28a-28e branching from the main transport path 28 into the paper currency storage sections 32, and bidirectionally transports paper currencies relative to the paper currency receiving sections 32a-32e.
  • FIGS. 3 and 4 are cross-sectional views showing the vicinities of the branching portions of the connecting transport mechanism 27.
  • branching connecting mechanisms 40 are disposed in the branching portions of the connecting transport mechanism 27.
  • the branching connecting mechanism 40 has a gate 41, a set of rollers 42 consisting of plural rollers for guiding paper currencies to the auxiliary transport path 28e, and a connecting mechanism 45.
  • the gate 41 is an L-shaped member which is located at the branching location and driven by a driving device (not shown) such as a solenoid.
  • the L-shaped member is so switched that it transports paper currencies transported to the main transport path 28 along the rollers 42 and bidirectionally relative to the auxiliary transport path 28e.
  • the gate 41 (indicated by the solid line) of FIG. 3 is in a position where the path is switched to the auxiliary transport path 28e.
  • the gate 41 indicated by the chain double-dashed lines is in a position used to transport paper currencies to the other auxiliary transport paths 28a-28d.
  • the connecting mechanism 45 has an upstream guide portion 46 and a downstream guide portion 48.
  • the upstream guide portion 46 has a guide body 46a.
  • the guide body 46a has a guide groove 46b formed along the auxiliary transport path 28a. Paper currencies are transported along this guide groove 46b.
  • the downstream guide portion 48 has a guide body 48a disposed on a side of the paper currency storage portion 32.
  • the guide body 48a has a guide groove 48b formed along the auxiliary transport path 28e. Paper currencies are transported along this guide groove 48b.
  • the upstream guide portion 46 and downstream guide portion 48 are tooth shaped. Their connected locations, i.e., a lower portion of the upstream guide portion 46 and an upper portion of the downstream guide portion 48, interdigitate between their teeth.
  • the guide grooves 46b and 48b formed by an unbroken wall surface form a part of the auxiliary transport path 28e.
  • the upstream guide portion 46 is rotatable by a rotary shaft 47a.
  • the rotary shaft 47a can be rotated by receiving a driving force of the motor drive shaft 47b of a motor (not shown). Accordingly, in the connecting mechanism 45, when no electric power is supplied to the motor or the motor is reset, the upstream guide portion 46 moves as shown in FIG. 4 , so that the downstream guide portion 48 does not overlap the upper portion. This results in a non-connected mode (non-connected position). Since electric power is supplied to the motor, a connection mode (connected position) shown in FIG. 3 is entered.
  • paper currencies inserted in the money deposit portion of the paper currency deposit-withdrawal slot 20 are separated one by one in the paper currency deposit-withdrawal slot 20 and paid out. They are transported into the paper currency discrimination portion 22 through the deposit transport path 26a and the withdrawal transport path 26b. Then, the paper currencies are transported to the temporal storage portion 23 through the temporal storage transport path 26d. At this time, passing paper currencies are counted and discriminated by the paper currency discrimination portion 22. The paper currencies staying in the temporal storage portion 23 are separated one by one and paid out after the transaction amount is confirmed. The currencies are then passed through the discrimination transport path 26c and again counted and discriminated by the paper currency discrimination portion 22. The currencies reach the connecting transport mechanism 27 and thence are transported to any one of the paper currency storage sections 32 (32a-32e) specified by the body control portion. In consequence, the deposit transaction ends.
  • paper currencies are delivered from the paper currency storage portion 32 while being separated one by one under instructions from the body control portion.
  • the paper currencies pass through the connecting transport mechanism 27 and through the discrimination transport path 26c of the upper unit transport mechanism 26 and are discriminated and counted by the paper currency discrimination portion 22. Then, they arrive at the withdrawal portion of the paper currency deposit-withdrawal slot 20 through the withdrawal transport path 26b, and are delivered to the client. As a consequence, the withdrawal transaction ends.

  • the first lock mechanism 70 integral with the paper currency handling unit 10 moves in the same direction. If the tilted surface 74d of the first lock member 74 strikes the lock pin 61, the first lock pin 74 rotates about the rotary shaft 75a against the biasing force of the spring 78. The engagement portion 74b comes into engagement with the lock pin 61. Then, the first lock member 74 is rotated in the reverse direction by the biasing force of the spring 78.
