[1-3. Banknote collection configuration]
The banknote collection | recovery store | warehouse | chamber 40 by 1st Embodiment is shown in FIG.3, FIG4 and FIG.5. FIG. 4 is a front view of the banknote collection box 40, and FIG. 5 is a view showing a part of the upper guide 48 and the lower guide 50 (described later) in FIG.

  As shown in FIG. 3, the banknote collection | recovery store | warehouse | chamber 40 has the banknote stacking part 44 which piles up and stacks | stacks banknote BL up and down inside the collection | recovery store | casing housing | casing 42 which plugs up and down, right and left, and the front.

  The banknote stacking unit 44 is provided with a full detection sensor (not shown) for detecting whether or not the stacked banknotes BL reach a predetermined amount and become full. When the full detection sensor detects that the banknote BL is full, the full notification sensor notifies the attendant by a predetermined notification means.

  An opening 46 through which the banknote stacking unit 44 and the outside of the banknote collection unit 40 are inserted is formed in the upper part of the front side surface of the collection case 42.

  Between the front upper part of the banknote stacking unit 44 and the opening 46, a guide unit 47 that guides the banknote BL received from the opening 46 to the banknote stacking unit 44 is formed. The guide portion 47 is configured to be surrounded by a right side plate 42R and a left side plate 42L (FIG. 4) that form the right side and the left side of the collection case 42, and an upper guide 48 and a lower guide 50, respectively.

  The upper guide 48 is attached to the inner side surface of the top plate 42T that forms the upper side of the collection case 42, and guides the banknote stacking unit 44 while preventing the banknote BL from progressing upward.

  The lower guide 50 is attached to the inner side surface of the bottom plate 42B that forms the lower side of the collection case 42, and guides the bill stacker 44 while preventing the bill BL from proceeding downward.

  As shown in FIG. 5, an elongated cylindrical transport roller shaft 54 extends in the left-right direction on the guide portion 47 below the upper side surface of the lower guide 50.

  The transport roller shaft 54 is attached to the collection case 42 via a gear 55 that is a one-way clutch gear at the left end, and is rotated clockwise in FIG. 3 by a driving means (not shown) and counterclockwise. Rotation to is regulated.

  Cylindrical transport rollers 52 (52R and 52L) are attached to the transport roller shaft 54 with an interval shorter than the length of the bill BL in the long side direction (left-right direction). The upper part of the conveyance roller 52 projects upward from the upper side surface of the lower guide 50.

  The conveyance roller 52 rotates clockwise together with the conveyance roller shaft 54 when the conveyance roller shaft 54 rotates clockwise in FIG.

  Moreover, since the conveyance roller 52 is not rotated counterclockwise by the gear 55 connected to the conveyance roller shaft 54, it is regulated not to convey the banknote BL from the banknote stacking unit 44 to the outside of the banknote collection box 40.

  In the guide portion 47, two elongated cylindrical driven roller shafts 58 extend in the left-right direction above the lower surface of the upper guide 48.

  A cylindrical driven roller 56 (56R and 56L) is attached to the driven roller shaft 58 at a location facing the conveying roller 52. The lower portion of the driven roller 56 projects downward from the lower surface of the upper guide 48.

  The driven roller shaft 58 rotates freely about its axis and is pressed downward by a spring 60 formed of a compression coil spring.

  Therefore, the driven roller 56 is rotated counterclockwise in FIG. 3 by the rotation of the conveying roller 52 when the outer peripheral surface of the driven roller 56 is pressed against the outer peripheral surface of the conveying roller 52. Hereinafter, a portion where the conveyance roller 52 and the driven roller 56 are in contact with each other is also referred to as a roller contact portion 53.

  When the banknote BL is transported via the transport section 14 (FIG. 2), the transport roller 52 and the driven roller 56 feed the banknote BL between them and advance it backward to send it to the banknote stacking section 44. .

  On the lower side surface of the upper guide 48, a sampling prevention member 62 having a wedge shape that becomes thinner from the upper side to the lower side in a side view and has a pointed lower end protrudes downward.

  The pull-out preventing member 62 is formed so that the width in the left-right direction is shorter than the width of the conveying roller 52 and the driven roller 56, and is arranged on both the left and right sides close to the driven roller 56R and the left and right sides close to the driven roller 56L. ing.

  That is, with respect to the driven roller 56R, an extraction preventing member 62RL is disposed on the left side, and an extraction preventing member 62RR is disposed on the right side. With respect to the driven roller 56L, an extraction preventing member 62LL is disposed on the left side, and an extraction preventing member 62LR is disposed on the right side. Has been placed.

  The front side surface 62F and the rear side surface 62R of the extraction preventing member 62 are formed in a flat shape, and are inclined from the front side to the rear side from the upper side to the lower side.

  That is, the front side surface 62F and the rear side surface 62R of the extraction preventing member 62 are not orthogonal to the surface direction of the banknote BL conveyed in the banknote conveyance direction (front-rear direction), but are inclined toward the banknote stacking unit 44. Has been.

  Furthermore, on the conveyance path 68 in the collection box which extends in the front-rear direction from the roller contact portion 53 in the banknote collection box 40 and is sandwiched between the conveyance roller 52 and the driven roller 56 and the banknote BL is conveyed, The rear side surface 62R is located on the rear side of the roller contact portion 53, that is, on the banknote stacking unit 44 side.

  In addition, on the in-collection transport path 68, the front side surface 62F of the extraction preventing member 62 is located behind the roller contact portion 53, that is, on the banknote stacking portion 44 side.

  Further, the leading end of the extraction preventing member 62 extends to the lower side of the roller contact portion 53. For this reason, the leading end of the extraction preventing member 62 is located on the inner side of the roller outer peripheral range RC1 where the outer peripheral surface of the transport roller 52 exists in a side view. That is, the leading end of the extraction preventing member 62 overlaps the transport roller 52 in a side view.

  Incidentally, as shown in FIG. 4, in the front view of the banknote collection box 40, the internal structure is such that a part of the conveying roller 52, the driven roller 56, and the extraction preventing member 62 is visible from the outside in the guide portion 47. The other mechanisms are protected by the collection case 42, the upper guide 48, the lower guide 50, and the like so that they cannot be seen from the outside and cannot be contacted.

  On the other hand, the gear 55 is exposed to the front surface of the banknote collection box 40 because the banknote collection box 40 is detachable from the banknote depositing / dispensing machine housing 11. For this reason, the person in charge can rotate the conveyance roller shaft 54 clockwise in FIG. 3 by touching the gear 55 of the banknote collection | recovery store | warehouse | chamber 40 removed from the banknote depositing / dispensing machine housing | casing 11 from the outside.

  With this configuration, in the banknote receiving state where the banknote collection box 40 receives the banknote BL from the outside, the transport roller shaft 54 is driven to rotate, and the transport roller 52 is rotated clockwise in FIG. When the banknote BL is transported via the transport section 14 (FIG. 2), the transport roller 52 and the driven roller 56 sandwich the banknote BL between each other and advance backward.

  While the bill BL is sandwiched between the transport roller 52 and the driven roller 56, the leading end portion in the traveling direction comes into contact with the front side surface 62F of the extraction preventing member 62, and is guided downward along the front side surface 62F.

  As shown in FIG. 6 corresponding to FIG. 5, the extraction preventing member 62 presses the left and right sides of the position of the roller contact portion 53 in the bill BL downward by the lower end portion.

  Thereby, the conveyance roller 52 and the driven roller 56 discharge | release into the banknote stacking part 44, changing the shape of the banknote BL so that it may wave.

  In this way, when the banknote BL is received from the outside, the banknote collection box 40 passes between the transport roller 52 and the driven roller 58 without stopping the transport while deforming the banknote BL by the withdrawal preventing member 62. And are accumulated in the bill accumulation unit 44.

  By the way, a rear door 64 for closing the banknote stacking unit 44 is provided on the rear surface of the banknote collection box 40. The rear door 64 is formed in a plate shape so as to cover the rear surface of the banknote collection box 40 as a whole, and is firmly configured. The rear door 64 rotates around a rotation axis provided in the lower portion along the left-right direction.

  A rear door opening / closing lock 66 that can be locked or unlocked by a rear door opening / closing key (not shown) as an outer door key is provided above the rear door 64.

  The rear door opening / closing lock 66 is engaged with a predetermined portion of the collection case 42 by being locked using the rear door opening / closing key in a state where the banknote collection case 40 is removed from the inside of the bill depositing / dispensing machine case 11. Then, the removal of the banknote BL from the banknote stacking unit 44 is prohibited.

  On the other hand, the rear door opening / closing lock 66 is unlocked by using the rear door opening / closing key in a state where the banknote recovery box 40 is removed from the inside of the banknote depositing / dispensing machine casing 11, thereby Is released, and the bill BL can be taken out from the bill stacking unit 44.

  In such a configuration, when the full detection sensor notifies the staff that the banknote stacking unit 42 is full of banknotes BL, the staff unlocks the rear door 2B (FIG. 2) and moves the banknote collection box 40 to the banknote. Remove from the depositing / dispensing machine housing 11.

  Subsequently, the clerk transports the banknote collection box 40, unlocks the rear door lock 66 at a predetermined location, and takes out the banknote BL.

  Further, the clerk locks the rear door opening / closing lock 66 of the banknote collection box 40 from which the banknote BL has been taken out, attaches the banknote collection box 40 to the banknote depositing / dispensing machine housing 11, and locks the rear door 2B.

  Here, when the banknote collection | recovery box 40 is taken out from the banknote depositing / dispensing machine housing | casing 11 and conveyed, the state which prevents extraction of the banknote BL at the time of trying to extract the banknote BL illegally from the banknote stacking part 44 is prevented. The bill withdrawal prevention state will be described.

  If the removal preventing member 62 is not provided, the rotation direction of the transport roller 52 is regulated by the gear 55, but the bill BL is pressed with a force larger than the frictional force between the transport roller 52 and the driven roller 56. If pulled, the banknote may be pulled out from the banknote collection box 40.

  At this time, the bill BL is picked up and pulled out from the outside of the opening 46 by, for example, tweezers.

  Moreover, since the banknote collection | recovery store | warehouse | chamber 40 has the banknote stacking part 44 arrange | positioned at the back lower part with respect to the guide part 47, if it is turned upside down as shown in FIG. The bill BL falls to the top plate 42T side.

  For this reason, the bills BL can be visually recognized from the outside through the opening 46, and the distance from the opening 46 to the bills BL is shortened so that the bills BL can be easily picked. There is a possibility of being reversed.

  In particular, when the amount of banknotes BL accumulated in the banknote stacking unit 44 is small, the banknote collection box 40 may be turned upside down because it is difficult to pick up the banknotes BL from the opening 46.

  In such a situation, when the banknote BL is picked from the banknote stacking portion 44 and moved forward along the upper guide 48 and the outer peripheral surface of the driven roller 56 (banknote BL1), the rear side surface 62R is a roller contact portion. Since the banknote BL <b> 1 is positioned behind 53, the banknote BL <b> 1 contacts the rear side surface 62 </ b> R of the extraction preventing member 62.

  Since the rear side surface 62R is inclined from the front to the rear, the front end of the banknote BL1 is guided downward along the rear side surface 62R. For this reason, banknote BL1 is pinched | interposed into the outer peripheral surface of the driven roller 56, and the rear side surface 62R of the extraction prevention member 62, and the movement to the front is controlled.

  On the other hand, when the banknote BL is picked from the banknote stacking unit 44 and moved forward along the lower guide 50 and the outer peripheral surface of the transport roller 52 (banknote BL2), the leading end of the extraction preventing member 62 is moved to the driven roller 56. Since they overlap, the bill BL2 comes into contact with the rear side surface 62R without exceeding the tip of the sampling preventing member 62.

  Also in this case, the rear side surface 62R guides the bill BL2 in the downward direction along the rear side surface 62R. For this reason, banknote BL2 is pinched | interposed into the outer peripheral surface of the driven roller 56, and the rear side surface 62R of the extraction prevention member 62, and the movement to the front is controlled.

  At this time, the banknote BL can partially pass between the extraction preventing member 62LL and the left side plate 42L, between the extraction preventing members 62LR and 62RL, or between the extraction preventing member 62RR and the right side plate 42R (FIG. 4). However, in order to pull out the entire bill BL, it is necessary to pass between the transport roller 52 and the driven roller 56.

  On the other hand, the banknote collection | recovery store | warehouse | chamber 40 can regulate extraction of banknote BL by not allowing banknote BL to pass between the conveyance roller 52 and the driven roller 56. FIG.

  Thus, when the banknote collection | recovery store | warehouse | chamber 40 moves the banknote BL toward the exterior from the banknote stacking part 44, the said banknote BL is made to contact the rear side 62R of the extraction prevention member 62 ahead of the roller contact part 53. The banknote BL is sandwiched between the rear side face 62R and the driven roller 56, and the forward movement of the banknote BL can be prevented.

[1-4. Operation and effect]
In the above configuration, the banknote collection box 40 is moved from the upper guide 48 provided on the upper side that is one side of the collection path 68 in which the banknote BL is conveyed, to the other side of the collection path 68. A part of the lower guide 50 provided on the lower side protrudes so as to overlap the transport roller 52, and the banknote BL is moved more than the roller contact part 53 when the banknote BL moves from the banknote stacking part 44 to the outside. The extraction preventing member 62 that comes into contact with the bill BL at a position close to the portion 44 is provided.

  Here, in the case of the configuration described in Patent Document 1, the protrusion provided on the inner side of the banknote collection box with respect to the transport roller and the driven roller is largely separated from the transport roller and the driven roller in the banknote transport direction. The protrusion is not overlapped with the conveying roller and the driven roller. For this reason, when it is going to be pulled out from the outside, a banknote will easily exceed the upper end of a projection part.

  On the other hand, according to the present embodiment, the extraction preventing member 62 is disposed in the very vicinity of the roller contact portion 53, and the leading end of the extraction preventing member 62 overlaps with the conveying roller 52.

  For this reason, the banknote collection | recovery store | warehouse | chamber 40 can prevent the banknote BL from passing over the front-end | tip of the extraction prevention member 62. FIG.

  Moreover, in the case of the structure of patent document 1, the protrusion part provided in the outer side of the banknote collection | recovery with respect to the conveyance roller and the driven roller has overlapped with the conveyance roller partially.

  However, in this case, a part of the banknote to be extracted is sandwiched and fixed between the transport roller and the driven roller. For this reason, when the banknotes are extracted to the outside of the banknote collection box, the tip of the banknote is easily deformed downward with the portion sandwiched between the transport roller and the driven roller in the banknote as a fulcrum. By deforming the bill so as to be waved in the axial direction, the lower end of the protruding portion can be easily exceeded. Thereby, a banknote will be extracted outside the banknote collection | recovery store | warehouse | chamber.

  In addition, since the protruding portion is erected in a direction orthogonal to the surface direction of the banknote to be conveyed, there is a possibility that when the banknote is taken from the outside, the banknote collides with the protruding portion and the banknote is jammed. .

  On the other hand, according to the present embodiment, the front side surface 62F is inclined so as to guide the bill BL conveyed from the outside to the inside of the bill collection box 40. Therefore, when receiving the bill BL from the outside, the bill BL Can be reliably conveyed to the banknote stacking unit 44.

  On the other hand, when the banknote BL is to be extracted, the banknote BL is placed outside the banknote collection box 40 in a state where the banknote BL is not sandwiched between the transport roller 52 and the driven roller 56, that is, a part of the banknote BL is not fixed. It is extremely difficult to deform from the above.

  According to the present embodiment, the rear side surface 62 </ b> R of the extraction preventing member 62 is provided at a position closer to the banknote stacking unit 44 than the roller contact portion 53.

  For this reason, it is possible to cause the front end portion of the banknote BL not partially fixed to be deformed downward, and to deform the banknote BL so as to be undulated in the left-right direction, thereby causing the leading end of the sampling preventing member 62 to be exceeded. It is extremely difficult.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 5, the extraction preventing member 62 is disposed at a position close to the driven roller 56 in the left-right direction. For this reason, the banknote collection | recovery store | warehouse | chamber 40 can make it difficult to deform | transform so that banknote BL may wave in the up-down direction.

  Furthermore, since the rear side surface 62R (FIG. 3) is inclined rearward, it is necessary to deform the front end portion of the banknote BL rearward and downward in order to exceed the front end portion of the extraction preventing member 62. It is extremely difficult to deform the banknote BL from the outside of the banknote collection box 40 in such a manner.

  Further, the front side surface 62F of the withdrawal preventing member 62 is inclined so as to guide the bill BL conveyed from the outside. For this reason, even if it is made difficult to deform | transform so that the banknote BL may be waved by the extraction prevention member 62, when the banknote collection | recovery warehouse 40 conveys the banknote BL to the banknote stacking part 44, it is banknote BL by the conveyance roller 52 and the follower roller 56. The roller contact portion 53 can be passed along the front side surface 62F.

  Here, when the front side surface 62F is positioned forward of the roller contact portion 53 in the in-collection transport path 68, when the banknote BL is received, the banknote BL first contacts the front side surface 62F and is deformed. Therefore, there is a possibility that the banknote BL cannot be properly sandwiched between the transport roller 52 and the driven roller 56.

  For this reason, it is desirable that the front side surface 62F is disposed closer to the banknote stacking portion 44 than the roller contact portion 53 in the in-collection transport path 68.

  Moreover, in the case of the structure of patent document 1, the protrusion provided in the inside of a banknote collection | recovery with respect to a conveyance roller and a follower roller is provided in the position largely separated from the said conveyance roller and a follower roller in the conveyance direction of a banknote. Therefore, when the banknotes are transported inside the banknote collection box, the leading edge of the banknotes that have passed through the transport roller and the follower roller hang down and come into contact with the protrusions, so that the banknotes may be jammed. There was sex.

  On the other hand, according to the present embodiment, the extraction preventing member 62 is provided very close to the roller contact portion 53. For this reason, since the banknote collection | recovery store | warehouse | chamber 40 can be made to pass over the front-end | tip part of the extraction prevention member 62, pinching | interposing the head part of the advancing direction of the banknote BL, banknote collection | stacking reliably without clogging the banknote BL in the extraction prevention member 62 It can be conveyed to the unit 44.

  Moreover, in the banknote collection | recovery store | warehouse | chamber 40, since the front side surface 62F of the extraction prevention member 62 inclines so that conveyance of the banknote BL may not be controlled, the banknote BL can be reliably conveyed to the banknote stacking part 44.

  Moreover, in the banknote collection | recovery store | warehouse | chamber 40, since only the wedge-shaped extraction prevention member 62 is being fixed to the upper guide 48, it has a very simple structure.

  Furthermore, in the banknote collection | recovery store | warehouse | chamber 40, it is not necessary to provide the shutter which covers the front surface of the banknote collection | recovery store | warehouse | chamber 40, for example.

  Thus, the banknote collection | recovery store | warehouse | chamber 40 can prevent reliably extraction of the banknote BL with a very simple structure.

  In the above, although the banknote withdrawal prevention state in the banknote collection box 40 in the upside down state has been described, the withdrawal prevention member 62 can prevent the withdrawal of the banknote BL even in a normal state in which the top and bottom is not inverted.

  According to the above configuration, the bill collection box 40 of the automatic teller machine 1 protrudes from the upper guide 48 toward the lower guide 50 so that a part thereof overlaps the transport roller 52, and is directed outward from the bill stacking unit 44. When the banknote BL moves, a withdrawal preventing member 62 having a rear side surface 62R that is in contact with the banknote BL and regulates the movement of the banknote BL at a position closer to the banknote stacking portion 44 than the roller contact portion 53 is provided. I made it.

  Thereby, the automatic teller machine 1 can reliably prevent the banknote BL from being illegally extracted from the banknote collection store 40, and improve the security.

<2. Second Embodiment>
[2-1. Banknote collection configuration]
Compared with the automatic teller machine 1 according to the first embodiment, the automatic teller machine 101 according to the second embodiment shown in FIG. Although it differs from the banknote collection | recovery store | warehouse | chamber 40 in the banknote depositing / withdrawing machine 10, other than that is comprised similarly.

  Moreover, the banknote collection | recovery store | warehouse | chamber 140 by 2nd Embodiment is the conveyance roller 152, as shown in FIG.8, FIG.9 and FIG.10 which attached | subjected the same code | symbol to the corresponding part with FIG.3, FIG.4 and FIG.5, respectively. The driven roller 156 is disposed upside down with respect to the in-collection transport path 168 in the guide portion 147 as compared with the transport roller 52 and the driven roller 56.

  As shown in FIG. 10, an elongated cylindrical conveyance roller shaft 154 extends in the left-right direction above the guide portion 147 above the lower side surface of the upper guide 148.

  The transport roller shaft 154 is attached to the collection case 142 through a gear 155 that is a one-way clutch gear at the left end, and is rotated clockwise in FIG. 8 by a driving means (not shown) and counterclockwise. Rotation to is regulated.

  As in the first embodiment, as shown in FIG. 9, the gear 155 is exposed to the front surface of the banknote collection box 140 because the banknote collection box 140 is detachable from the banknote depositing / dispensing machine housing 11. . For this reason, the clerk can rotate the conveyance roller shaft 154 counterclockwise in FIG. 8 by touching the gear 155 of the banknote collection box 140 removed from the banknote depositing / dispensing machine housing 11 from the outside.

  Cylindrical transport rollers 152 (152R and 152L) are attached to the transport roller shaft 154 at intervals shorter than the length of the bill BL in the long side direction. The lower part of the conveyance roller 152 protrudes below the lower side surface of the upper guide 148.

  The conveyance roller 152 rotates counterclockwise together with the conveyance roller shaft 154 when the conveyance roller shaft 154 is rotated counterclockwise in FIG.

  Further, since the transport roller 152 does not rotate clockwise by the gear 155 connected to the transport roller shaft 154, the banknote BL is restricted from being transported from the banknote stacking unit 44 to the outside of the banknote collection box 140.

  Below the guide portion 147, two elongated cylindrical driven roller shafts 158 extend in the left-right direction below the upper side surface of the lower guide 150.

  A cylindrical driven roller 156 (156R and 156L) is attached to the driven roller shaft 158 at a location facing the conveying roller 152. The upper part of the driven roller 156 projects upward from the upper side surface of the lower guide 150.

  The driven roller shaft 158 rotates freely around its axis and is pressed upward by a spring 60 formed of a compression spring.

  For this reason, the driven roller 156 is rotated in the clockwise direction in FIG. 8 by the rotation of the conveying roller 152 when the outer peripheral surface of the driven roller 156 is pressed against the outer peripheral surface of the conveying roller 152.

  On the left and right sides of each of the transport rollers 152R and 152L on the transport roller shaft 154, a sampling prevention member 162 is disposed.

  That is, with respect to the conveyance roller 152R, the extraction preventing member 162RL is disposed on the left side, and the extraction preventing member 162RR is disposed on the right side. Has been placed.

  The extraction preventing member 162 is formed by integrating a boss 70, a claw portion 72, and a protruding plate 74.

  The boss 70 is formed in a cylindrical shape, and is rotated in accordance with the rotation of the conveyance roller shaft 154 by being fixed to the conveyance roller shaft 154 through a built-in one-way torque limiter.

  Therefore, the boss 70 rotates counterclockwise in FIG. 8 about the transport roller shaft 154 as an axis, but does not rotate clockwise, and when a torque of a predetermined value or more is applied to the boss 70, the transport roller shaft 154 Severing the rotational force.

  Like the extraction preventing member 62 according to the first embodiment, the claw portion 72 has a wedge shape with a sharpened lower end that narrows from the upper side to the lower side in a side view, and extends from the front surface to the lower surface of the boss 70. It protrudes downward from the crossing part.

  The front side surface 72F and the rear side surface 72R of the claw portion 72 are formed in a flat shape, and are inclined from the front side to the rear side from the top to the bottom.

  In addition, on the transport path 168 in the collection box, the rear side surface 72R and the front side surface 72F of the claw portion 72 are located behind the roller contact portion 153, that is, on the banknote stacking portion 44 side.

  Further, the tip of the claw 72 extends to the lower side than the roller contact portion 153. For this reason, the front-end | tip of the nail | claw part 72 is located inside roller outer peripheral range RC2 which is a position where the outer peripheral surface of the driven roller 156 exists in side view. That is, the tip of the claw portion 72 overlaps the driven roller 156 in a side view.

  The protruding plate 74 has a rectangular parallelepiped shape, and protrudes from the boss 70 on the upper rear side of the conveying roller shaft 154 that is a position facing the claw portion 72 with the conveying roller shaft 154 interposed therebetween.

  A rectangular parallelepiped first rotation restricting portion 78 is fixed to the collection housing 142 at the upper rear portion of the boss 70.

  In the banknote non-receiving state in which the transport roller 152 is not rotated and the banknote BL is not taken into the banknote stacking unit 44 from the outside of the banknote collection box 140, the projection plate 74 is rotated first as shown in FIG. It abuts on the restricting portion 78.

  In the upper front part of the boss 70, a rectangular parallelepiped rotation restricting portion 80 fixed to the collection case 142, a rotation shaft 82 provided at the rear end of the rotation restricting portion 80, and a rectangular parallelepiped shape are formed. A second rotation restricting portion 86 having an upper end composed of a protrusion locking portion 84 connected to the rotation shaft 82 is disposed. In FIG. 10, the second rotation restricting portion 86 is not shown and is omitted.

  The protrusion locking portion 84 is formed so as to be rotatable about the rotation shaft 82 from the protrusion plate non-locking position P1 to the protrusion plate locking position P2.

  An upper end of a spring 88 made of a tension coil spring is fixed to the rotation restricting portion 80. The nail | claw part 72 is pulled up by attaching the lower end of the spring 88 to the front end.

  For this reason, the protruding plate 74 formed integrally with the claw portion 72 so as to oppose the claw portion 72 via the boss 70 is urged clockwise in FIG. 8, and in the banknote non-accepting state, the first rotation regulating portion 78. Pressed against.

  On the other hand, in the banknote receiving state in which the transport roller 152 rotates and takes the banknote BL into the banknote stacking unit 44 from the outside of the banknote collection box 140, the transport roller shaft 154 has a force larger than the elastic force of the spring 88, The extraction preventing member 162 is rotated counterclockwise.

  For this reason, as shown in FIG. 11, the claw portion 72 rotates counterclockwise around the conveying roller shaft 154, whereby the tip of the claw portion 72 is positioned above the roller contact portion 53.

  Further, the protruding plate 74 also rotates counterclockwise around the conveying roller shaft 154 and contacts the protruding locking portion 84 located at the protruding plate locking position P1. The protrusion locking portion 84 is locked to the rotation restricting portion 80 to maintain the protrusion plate locking position P1. Thereby, the extraction preventing member 162 is positioned.

  At this time, the transport roller shaft 154 continues to rotate to take in the bills BL, and therefore applies a force to press the projection plate 74 toward the projection locking portion 84.

  Here, since the extraction preventing member 62 is attached to the conveyance roller shaft 154 via a one-way torque limiter, when the force is applied to the protrusion locking portion 84 and a force exceeding a predetermined value is applied, the extraction prevention member 62 rotates from the conveyance roller shaft 154. Damage is prevented because power is not transmitted.

  As described above, in the banknote receiving state, the withdrawal preventing member 62 rotates and moves above the roller contact portion 153 and retracts from the in-collection transport path 168. Thereby, the conveyance roller 152 and the driven roller 156 discharge | release into the banknote stacking part 44, without changing the shape of banknote BL. For this reason, the banknote collection | recovery store | warehouse | chamber 40 can make a banknote BL hard to be damaged.

  Below, the banknote extraction prevention state by 2nd Embodiment is described. In this state, since the banknote collection | recovery store | warehouse | chamber 140 is removed from the banknote depositing / dispensing machine housing | casing 11, it is in a banknote non-receiving state as shown in FIG.

  For this reason, also in the banknote collection | recovery store | warehouse | chamber 140 in the upside down state, the projection board 74 is pressed against the 1st rotation control part 78 with the spring 88, as shown in FIG.

  When the banknote collection box 140 is turned upside down, the protrusion locking portion 84 rotates from the protrusion plate non-locking position P1 to the protrusion plate locking position P2 about the rotation shaft 82 by its own weight.

  The protrusion locking portion 84 located at the protruding plate locking position P <b> 2 abuts the protruding plate 74 at the tip, and presses the protruding plate 74 against the first rotation restricting portion 78. Accordingly, the protrusion locking portion 84 prevents the extraction preventing member 162 from rotating clockwise in FIG.

  As described above, in the banknote withdrawal preventing state, the protrusion locking portion 84 restricts the rotation of the projection plate 74, thereby preventing the withdrawal preventing member 162 in the banknote non-receiving state from rotating clockwise and counterclockwise. can do.

[2-2. Operation and effect]
In the above configuration, the withdrawal preventing member 162 is retracted from the in-collection transport path 168 in the bill receiving state.

  For this reason, the conveyance roller 152 and the driven roller 156 can make the banknote BL less likely to be damaged by discharging the banknote BL into the banknote stacking unit 44 without deforming the shape of the banknote BL.

  Moreover, the banknote collection | recovery store | warehouse | chamber 140 was made into the banknote non-receiving state by the elastic force of the spring 88 like the normal state also in the upside down state. For this reason, the banknote collection | recovery store | warehouse | chamber 140 can prevent extraction of the banknote BL.

  Here, the gear 155 is exposed on the front surface of the banknote collection box 140. For this reason, when the user touches the gear 155 and rotates the transport roller shaft 154 in the clockwise direction in FIG. 12 with a force stronger than the elastic force of the spring 88, the removal preventing member 162 is brought into the banknote receiving state. There is a possibility that the bill BL is going to pass through between 152 and the driven roller 156.

  On the other hand, in the upside down state of the banknote collection box 140, the protrusion locking portion 84 is automatically rotated from the protrusion plate non-locking position P1 to the protrusion plate locking position P2 by its own weight.

  Therefore, the protrusion locking portion 84 can prevent the extraction preventing member 162 from rotating in the upside down state.

  Thus, the banknote collection | recovery store | warehouse | chamber 140 maintains the banknote non-receiving state of the withdrawal prevention member 162 by the elastic force of the spring 88 in the upside down state, and further, the force exceeding the elastic force of the spring 88 is the withdrawal prevention member 162. Even in the case of being added to the banknote, it is possible to keep the banknote withdrawal preventing state by the protrusion locking portion 84.

  In addition, the banknote collection | recovery store | warehouse | chamber 140 by 2nd Embodiment can show | play the effect substantially the same as the banknote collection | recovery store | warehouse | chamber 40 by 1st Embodiment.

  According to the above configuration, the bill collection box 140 of the automatic teller machine 101 rotates according to the transport roller 52 that rotates in the receiving rotation direction when accepting the bill BL from the outside, and is directed from the outside toward the bill stacking unit 44. A second prevention member 162 that retracts from the in-collection conveyance path 168 when the bill BL moves is provided, and prevents the extraction prevention member 162 from rotating in the receiving rotation direction when the bill collection case 140 is turned upside down. A rotation restricting portion 86 is provided.

  Thereby, the automatic teller machine 101 can reliably prevent the banknote BL from being illegally extracted from the banknote collection store 140, and improve the security.
