  The drum 21 rotates (counterclockwise in the drawing) in accordance with the rotation of the upper reel 22 and the lower reel 23, and thereby the upper tape 24 (also referred to as a first tape) drawn from the upper reel 22 and the lower reel. A lower tape 25 (also referred to as a second tape) pulled out from the side reel 23 is wound up in an overlapping manner. The upper tape 24 and the lower tape 25 will be described as having a width shorter than the length of the side perpendicular to the bill conveyance direction. However, the widths of the upper tape and the lower tape 25 are not particularly limited.

  The upper tape 24 and the lower tape 25 are separated from the drum 21, that is, the line passing through the center of the drum 21 (broken line in the figure) and the lower tape 25 in the immediate vicinity of the drum 21 (that is, drawn from the drum 21. The contact point 36 is a point where a portion immediately after the winding or a portion immediately before being wound around the drum 21 intersects at a right angle.

  The upper reel 22 and the lower reel 23 rotate according to the rotation of the drum 21 (clockwise in the drawing), thereby winding the upper tape 24 and the lower tape 25 wound around the drum 21.

  The temporary storage unit 13 is provided with an upper guide 26 so as to cover the drum 21 from above. As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the upper guide 26 passes the tape for allowing the upper tape 24 to pass in front of the tape roller 32 (also referred to as a first tape guide portion) at a central position in the left-right direction. A hole 26A is provided. 26 A of tape passage holes are formed so that a hole may become large in the front-back direction from the upper surface to the lower surface of the upper guide 26, and a cross section becomes a substantially trapezoid shape in the front-back direction.

  Hereinafter, the tape passage hole 26A will be described in more detail. As shown in the left side view of FIG. 7, the tape passage hole 26 </ b> A is substantially composed of an upper side N <b> 1 and a lower side N <b> 2, and a rear side N <b> 3 and a front side N <b> 4 that connect the end of the upper side N <b> 1 and the end of the lower side N <b> 2, respectively. Trapezoidal shape. The upper side N1 of the substantially trapezoidal shape is formed so that the length along the conveyance path direction is shorter than the lower side N2 of the substantially trapezoidal shape.

  The tape passage hole 26A is formed so that an angle α with respect to the lower side N2 of the rear side N3, which is a slope connecting the end of the upper side N1 and the end of the lower side N2, is an acute angle on the rear side. The angle α is preferably not less than 10 degrees and not more than 60 degrees.

  Further, the tape passage hole 26A is formed such that an angle β with respect to the lower side N2 of the front side N4 connecting the end of the upper side N1 and the end of the lower side N2 is an acute angle on the front side. The angle β is preferably not less than 10 degrees and not more than 60 degrees.

  The angle α and the angle β may be the same size or different sizes. Further, the tape passage hole 26A only needs to have a size such that an angle θ described later is an acute angle and the upper tape 24 does not contact the tape passage hole 26A.

  Further, the temporary storage unit 13 is provided with a lower guide 27 along the lower surface of the upper guide 26 below the front side of the upper guide 26.

  The upper guide 26 and the lower guide 27 are arranged so as to leave a certain gap. The gap serves as a conveyance path 28 through which bills pass.

  The upper guide 26 is provided with a guide roller 29 in the center in the left-right direction at a position almost directly above the drum 21. The guide roller 29 comes into contact with the top portion of the outer periphery of the drum 21 from above.

  The temporary storage unit 13 includes a clamp roller 30 on the upper guide 26 and a clamp roller 31 on the lower guide 27. The clamp roller 30 and the clamp roller 31 are opposed to each other across the transport path 28 at a position in front of the drum 21 and at a position shorter than the short length of the bill from the contact 36 and farther from the tape passage hole 26A. . The clamp roller 30 and the clamp roller 31 are rotatably connected by a motor (not shown).

  The temporary storage unit 13 includes a tape roller 32 in the upper guide 26 and a tape roller 33 in the lower guide 27. The tape roller 32 and the tape roller 33 are located between the drum 21 and the clamp roller 30 and the clamp roller 31 so as to sandwich the conveyance path 28 from a position shifted forward and backward. Further, the tape roller 32 and the tape roller 33 are arranged so as to be separated to such an extent that a bill can pass through the transport path 28. Incidentally, the contact point 36 is a position where the lower tape 25 is separated from the drum 21, and the tape roller 33 is located below the contact point 36.

  Further, the temporary storage unit 13 is provided with a tape roller 34 (also referred to as a second tape guide unit) in front of and above the tape roller 32. The upper tape 24 is pulled out from the upper reel 22 toward a tape roller 34 disposed forward. Then, the upper tape 24 is folded back by the tape roller 34 and drawn out so as to pass through the tape passage hole 26 </ b> A toward the tape roller 32 disposed below and rearwardly changed in direction by the tape roller 32. Then, it is wound around the rear drum 21.

  Accordingly, the upper tape 24 is gradually separated from the conveyance path 28 toward the front from the tape roller 32 with respect to the tape roller 32.

  Here, as shown in FIG. 6, the tape roller 32 and the tape roller 34 are positions where the angle θ of the upper tape 24 between the tape rollers 32 and 34 with respect to the conveying path 28 at the position where the tape roller 32 is provided is an acute angle. Is arranged.

  The angle θ is desirably an acute angle as much as possible, and is preferably 10 degrees or more and 60 degrees or less.

  Here, in the tape roller 32, a part where the upper tape 24 traveling inside the tape passage hole 26 </ b> A toward the tape roller 34 is separated from the tape roller 32 is defined as a separation point P. Further, the front end portion of the lower side N2 of the tape passage hole 26A is defined as a Q point (FIG. 6).

  As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the upper tape 24 drawn from the drum 21 passes through the tape passage hole 26 </ b> A while changing its traveling direction upward along the peripheral side surface of the tape roller 32. The angle θ is the acute angle when the tape roller 32 is arranged so that the separation point P coincides with the Q point (FIG. 6) of the tape passage hole 26A.

  The angle α of the rear side N3 connecting the end of the upper side N1 and the end of the lower side N2 on the rear side of the tape passage hole 26A described above is such that the tape roller 32 and the tape roller with respect to the transport path 28 at the position where the tape roller 32 is provided. It is determined according to the angle θ of the upper tape 24 between 34. The angle α may be determined to be at least larger than the angle θ. When determined in this way, the upper guide 26 can prevent damage due to contact between the inclined surface of the rear side N3 of the tape passage hole 26A and the upper tape 24 in advance.

  Further, the temporary storage unit 13 is provided with a tape roller 35 below the tape roller 33. The lower tape 25 is drawn from the lower reel 23 toward the tape roller 35 disposed forward, and is folded back by the tape roller 35 and pulled toward the tape roller 33 disposed above. Then, the lower tape 25 is folded back by the tape roller 33 and is wound around the rear drum 21.

  The temporary storage unit 13 having such a configuration, when storing the bills BL, transports the bills BL transported along the transport path 28 between the clamp roller 30 and the clamp roller 31 to the drum 21 side. The temporary storage unit 13 stores the banknote BL by winding it with the drum 21 while holding the bill BL between the upper tape 24 and the lower tape 25.

  In addition, when temporarily storing the bill BL, the temporary storage unit 13 winds the bill BL by clamping the upper tape 24 and the lower tape 25 wound around the drum 21 onto the upper reel 22 and the lower reel 23, respectively. And conveyed to the clamp roller 31. Then, the temporary storage unit 13 feeds the bill BL along the transport path 28 by the clamp roller 30 and the clamp roller 31.

  By the way, the temporary storage part 13 may store and pay out the banknote BL1 which has the cut | disconnection BL1a in the front long side orthogonal to a conveyance direction (front-back direction).

  As shown in FIGS. 8 to 10, when the temporary storage unit 13 pays out the bill BL <b> 1, the bill BL <b> 1 is wound by winding the upper tape 24 and the lower tape 25 around the upper reel 22 and the lower reel 23, respectively. It moves forward along the conveyance path 28.

  Since the clamp roller 30 and the clamp roller 31 are arranged in front of the tape roller 32, that is, in front of the tape passage hole 26A, the bill BL1 is moved to the clamp roller 30 and the clamp roller 31 as shown in FIG. It passes under the tape roller 32 before being pinched.

  Therefore, the temporary storage unit 13 can prevent the end portion BL1b of the rolled up bill BL from being bent to the upper side of the upper tape 24 by the clamp rollers 30 and 31 in advance.

  As shown in FIG. 9, the temporary storage unit 13 further moves the banknote BL1 forward along the transport path 28 to pass below the tape passage hole 26A. At this time, the temporary storage unit 13 is in a state in which the end side portion (hereinafter also referred to as a hook) BL1b is freely movable without being constrained by the cut of the bill BL1, so that the tape can be moved freely. It may enter the passage hole 26A. Even in such a case, the temporary storage portion 13 is formed in a substantially trapezoidal cross section that extends in the front-rear direction from the upper side to the lower side, so that the tape passage hole 26A is formed along a slope inclined forward and downward. Push down the collar BL1b downward.

  That is, when the banknote BL1 is wound and stored, the temporary storage unit 13 pushes down the collar portion BL1b downward along the slope of the rear side N3 that forms an angle α with the transport path 28. Further, when the banknote BL1 is fed out, the temporary storage unit 13 pushes down the collar part BL1b downward along the slope of the front side N4 that forms an angle β with respect to the transport path 28. Therefore, the temporary storage part 13 can prevent the hook part BL1b from being caught in the tape passage hole 26A when the bill BL1 travels along the transport path 28.

  As shown in FIG. 10, the temporary storage unit 13 further moves the bill BL1 forward along the transport path 28, holds the bill BL1 between the clamp roller 30 and the clamp roller 31, and moves forward along the transport path 28. Move. At this time, it is conceivable that the clamp roller 30 and the clamp roller 31 fold back (crawl) the collar BL1b of the banknote BL1. However, in the temporary storage section 13, the collar BL1b of the banknote BL1 moves below the tape roller 32. Since it has already passed, the occurrence of problems as in the prior art can be reduced.
