Description

[Detailed description of the invention]

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a banknote transport system, particularly an inserted banknote in an automatic lending, sales, service payment, etc. device which enables the use of a large bill such as a coin lending machine in a game hall and the supply of change. Related to a delivery device.

[0002]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION At present, games such as slot machines are generally played in units of 1,000 yen, and automatic metal lending machines with 1000-yen bills are provided adjacent to game machines. However, since high-value banknotes had to leave their seats and go to a money changer, the applicant was able to use high-value banknotes and provide change, and in addition to metal lending,
We have developed a device that can be applied to services such as selling various products and driving a karaoke system.

The above-mentioned apparatus judges the authenticity of a bill by an optical sensor, discriminates a denomination, loads the bill into the apparatus, and recycles the bill as a 1,000-yen bill, a 5,000-yen bill, and a 10,000-yen bill. Are stored in separate stockers.

[0004]

The purpose of the present invention is to further improve the above-mentioned apparatus, to reduce the size of the entire apparatus, to obtain more reliable operation, to reduce the failure rate and to make maintenance easier. It is an object to provide a dispensing device in a system.

[0005]

In order to achieve this object, a bill dispensing device in a bill transport system according to the present invention dispenses inserted bills into 1,000-yen bills and high-value bills, and stores each bill. Is a dispensing device in a bill transporting system formed by a pressing plate driven by a combination of a rack and a pinion, and a thousand-yen bill is detected by a stop sensor 4 at a far end of a carrying path following an insertion slot and straight, and descends. The high-value banknote passes through the stop sensor described above and proceeds to a conveyance path which wraps around the apparatus, and is performed by the pressing plate 10 which is detected and raised by the stop sensor 9. Each press

The attachment plates 5, 10 and the fixed racks 15a, 15a mesh with each other.
And the same height as the first pinion shaft 13a
A second pinion shaft 13b, which is parallel at the position, is disposed.
The second pinion shaft 13b is provided with a pinion 14a.
Pinions 14b of the same shape are attached to both ends.
The pinions 14b are respectively opposed to the pinions 14b.
14a and 14a, and the rack 15a
. Both the racks 15b and 15b opposed to 15a
It is characterized by being engaged.

[0006]

With the above configuration, a stocker dedicated to 1,000-yen bills and a stocker for high-value bills of 5,000-yen bills and 10,000-yen bills can be compactly arranged vertically above and below the bill pressing device. Can be reduced in size. Further, by performing the pressing operation of the bills with a simple and stable machine mechanism of a rack and a pinion, failures are reduced and the product price can be reduced.

[0007]

Next, an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a schematic side view of a dispensing device embodying the present invention, FIG. 2 is a side view inside a gearbox, and FIG. 3 is a plan view of the same.

In these figures, reference numeral 1 denotes a bill insertion slot, and near the inside of the insertion slot 1, in addition to a start switch sensor, a near infrared sensor, a color sensor, a three primary color sensor, an auto white balance sensor, and the like. The sensor group 2 is arranged, and the authenticity and the denomination of the inserted bill are compared with a memory in which genuine data is stored in advance, determined and discriminated. 3 is loaded into the apparatus by a transporting means such as a belt or the like, and when it is determined as a counterfeit bill, it is sent back to the insertion slot 1 and discharged.

If a true 1000-yen bill is determined by the above-described determination and discrimination by the sensor group 2, the position of the far end of the bill is detected by the stop sensor 4 on the far side that has proceeded straight along the transport path, and the transport drive is stopped. Then, a bill pressing device, which will be described in detail later, is activated, and the pressing plate 5 pushes the bills down to a 1,000-yen note dedicated stocker located below the pressing device to densely store the bills.

In the case of a genuine 5,000-yen bill or a 10,000-yen bill, a roller group 6.6 and a belt, which pass through the stop position of the 1,000-yen bill and are disposed behind the stop sensor 4, The transport device 7 is rotated by the guide device 7 and the guide 8 above the pressing device, and the leading end is detected by a stop sensor 9 located at a position deep in the transport path, and the transport driving is stopped. Then, the pressing device is activated and is pushed up and stored in the upper stocker by the push-up plate 10. The denominations stored in the stocker can of course be reversed by switching the software.

The above-mentioned bill pressing device comprises a motor 11 and a gear box 12 in which a gear connected to a shaft of the motor 11 is housed. Motor 1
One shaft has a first pinion shaft 13 in a gearbox 12.
a are connected, and pinions 14a, 14a having the same diameter and the same number of teeth are attached to both ends of the first pinion shaft 13a, and the racks 15a, 15a mesh with the respective pinions 14a, 14a. Have been.

A second pinion shaft 13b is disposed parallel to the first pinion shaft 13a at the same height as the first pinion shaft 13a. The second pinion shaft 13b has pinions 14b, 14b having the same shape as the pinion 14a. Are attached to both ends, and the pinions 14b, 14b are engaged with the opposing pinions 14a, 14a, respectively.
The racks 15b, 15b facing the 15a are also meshed.

That is, the rotation direction of the pinions 14a is determined by the rotation direction of the motor 11, and the racks 15a 15a are linked with the rotation of the pinions 14a.
A, 15b and 15b move in the same direction at the same time, so that the push-down plate 5 or the push-up plate 10 is moved. At this time, in addition to the racks 15a and 15a meshing with the pinions 14a and 14a, the racks 15b and 15b are interlocked with each other, so that the load is applied to only one point, so that the operation is very stable.

[0014]

As described above, according to the bill dispensing apparatus of the present invention, the bill dispensing apparatus can be constructed with a small number of parts, and the whole apparatus can be made very compact. Also, by using a combination of a rack and a pinion for the pressing device, the mechanism is simplified, the number of failures is reduced, the price can be reduced, and more accurate operation can be obtained. ing.
