Description

The present invention relates to a cash collection device that collects fare and tickets in a fare box safe that is a fare storage destination of a fare box.

Conventionally, in a vehicle such as a route bus or a one-man train, a fare box is installed in the vehicle as a destination for a fare paid by the passenger and a numbered ticket that is proof of which stop the passenger has boarded. The fare box counts how much coins and banknotes are thrown in as fare (
While calculating these coins and banknotes, the numbered tickets inserted together with the fare when the fare is input are similarly stored. In the fare box, a fare box safe is provided as a storage location for the fare, numbered ticket, and calculated total fare amount (safety data) input to the fare box. This fare box safe is detachable from the fare box main unit so that the fare and numbered tickets in the safe can be collected in a lump in a terminal center managed by the company that operates the bus and railway. ing.

The terminal center is provided with a settlement machine that collects the fare paid by each vehicle, that is, the fare stored in each fare box safe. An example of this type of payment machine is disclosed in, for example, Patent Documents 1 and 2. After operation, the driver removes the fare box safe from the fare box and carries it to the terminal sensor. And by activating the checkout machine installed in the terminal center, setting the fare box safe in this checkout machine and executing the cash collection operation,
Allow the fare box to collect the fare in the fare box safe. The checkout machine sorts the coins, banknotes and numbered tickets in the fare box safe and stores them in the corresponding coin safe, banknote safe and numbered ticket storage box.

By the way, the coin safe of the settlement machine is provided with a plurality of coin container bags (coin bags) as a storage location for coins. These coin container bags are selectively used as a coin storage destination in a specific one of a plurality of container bags, and when a coin container bag in use is full,
The storage destination is switched to an empty coin container bag, and this operation is sequentially repeated to store coins.
These coin container bags can be attached to and removed from the payment machine. After all the coin container bags are full, the coin container bag storage chamber door is opened with a key and is empty by hand. It is possible to replace it.

The coin container bag is provided with a shutter that can open and close the bag entrance. When this shutter is in the fully open state, this open state is maintained, and it has a lock portion lever as an operation place when the fully opened shutter is closed, and when this lock portion lever is operated, It switches from the fully open state until then to the fully closed state. When the shutter is fully closed, the shutter is locked, and an unlocking operation with a dedicated key (mechanical key) is required to open the shutter again. When removing the coin container bag from the checkout machine, the lock lever touches the corresponding part of the checkout machine at the start timing of removing the coin container bag from the checkout machine, and the shutter is locked from the open state until then to lock. After removing the coin container bag from the settlement machine, the coin cannot be withdrawn from the coin container bag.

Here, depending on the case, the coin container bag may be set in the checkout machine in a state where foreign matter is caught at the bag entrance. When this coin container bag is full of recovered coins and is replaced with a new empty coin container bag, if the coin container bag with foreign objects attached is removed from the checkout machine, it is usually accompanied by this removal operation. In this case, the shutter that is fully closed and locked when the lock lever is operated cannot be fully closed by a foreign object, and is in a half-open state in which a gap (several mm) is opened by the amount of the foreign object. It may not be locked. Therefore, since the shutter can be freely opened by hand, there is a problem that the coins in the coin container bag are stolen after the coin container bag is removed from the settlement machine.

The object of the present invention is, for example, cash that can reduce the possibility that the collected item stored in the collected item storage unit will be stolen even if the door part cannot be fully locked due to foreign matter or the like. It is to provide a recovery device.

In order to solve the above problems, in the present invention, a fare box safe for storing cash put in a fare box is attached, and the fare box safe attached to the attachment destination is stored in the safe. It is possible to collect the collected cash and collect it every time the fare box safe is attached to the attachment destination, collect the cash in a lump, and collect the collected matter storage part which is the collection destination of the collected item. upon removal from the cash recycler door portion provided at the entrance of the recovered product containing portion該取Ri out Mr is performed by taking the fully closed and locked state, removing the collected product accommodating unit from the apparatus main body time, if the door portion of the recovered product accommodating unit has not taken a fully closed state, comprising a storage unit sampling limiting mechanism to disable the removal of the collected material accommodating portion from the main assembly of the apparatus, sampling the housing part limit Machine Is provided in the collected material storage unit and has a locking portion that is useful when the collected material storage portion cannot be removed, and when the door portion is fully closed, When the door portion is not fully closed, the storage portion side mechanism that prevents the escape when the door portion is not fully closed, and the device main body side are provided, and the collected material storage portion is attached to the device main body. And a device main body side mechanism in which escapement of a locked portion which is a locking partner of the locking portion is allowed in the mounting direction .

Further, when the collected material storage portion becomes full, for example, the collected material storage portion is manually removed and replaced with a new empty one. At this time, when the collected matter storage part is removed from the apparatus main body, the door part is fully closed, and this is switched to the locked state. This means that after removing the collected material storage unit from the main body of the device, the collected material stored in the collected material storage unit is extracted by a third party by making it impossible to open the door of the collected material storage unit without permission. This is to prevent it from happening.

By the way, depending on the case, when a foreign object adheres to the closing port of the door part, when the door part is in a closed state, the door part sandwiches the foreign substance and stops in front of the fully closed position. It may be half open. At this time, since the door portion is not fully closed and locked, the door portion can be opened manually. In this way, when the door part takes a half-open state, if it becomes possible to remove the collected matter storage part from the apparatus main body,
There is no denying the possibility that the collected items inside the collected item storage unit removed from the apparatus body will be extracted without permission.

Therefore, in this configuration, if the door is not fully closed when removing the collected material storage unit from the device main body, the storage unit extraction restriction mechanism that disables the extraction of the collected material storage unit from the device main body is provided in cash. It was provided in the recovery device. Thus, collected material when the door portion of the accommodating portion takes a half-open state I or could sandwiched example foreign matter, that is, when the door portion of the recovered product containing portion of possible states that would be manually opening operation In addition, since it is not necessary to remove the collected material storage unit from the apparatus main body, it is possible to improve crime prevention (security) against theft with respect to the collected material stored in the collected material storage unit.

In addition, according to this configuration, when the collected material storage unit is attached to the apparatus main body, the locking unit of the storage unit side mechanism provided in the recovered material storage unit is locked to the device main body side mechanism provided in the apparatus main body. When the contacted portion is brought into contact, the portion to be locked pushed by the locking portion moves away from the locking portion, thereby permitting the attachment of the collected matter storage portion. In addition, when the collected matter storage unit is detached from the apparatus main body, when the locking part of the storage unit side mechanism provided in the recovered product storage part comes into contact with the locked part of the device main body side mechanism provided in the apparatus main body. If the door portion is in the fully closed state, this time, the locking portion moves away from the locked portion, and removal of the collected matter storage portion is allowed. On the other hand, if the door portion is not fully closed at this time, the above-described locking portion cannot be escaped, and the locking portion and the locked portion are caught and the collected material storage portion cannot be removed from the apparatus main body. It becomes. Therefore, with a simple structure in which the locking portion and the locked portion are locked, it is impossible to extract the collected material storage portion from the apparatus main body, and it is possible to prevent unauthorized removal of the recovered material. Become.

In the present invention, the device main body side mechanism allows the attachment of the collected material storage portion in which the door portion does not take a fully closed state by escaping a locked portion that is a locking counterpart of the locking portion. The gist of the invention is to restrict the removal of the collected matter storage portion in which the door portion does not take a fully closed state by preventing the locked portion from escaping.

In the present invention, the locking portion has a hooking portion that functions as a hooking point of an operator's finger when opening the door portion, and the hooking portion is the locked portion of the device main body side mechanism. The gist is to take a locked state.

According to the present invention, it is possible to make it difficult to cause a collection error of a collected material due to the collection failure even if the collected material storage section falls into a defective set.

A substantially rectangular bag inlet 45 is provided as a coin inlet to the inside of the coin container bag 16 at a position near the back of the upper lid 44. Coins separated from the bills by the coin separating device 25 and passing through the coin chute 29 enter the bag main body 43 of the coin container bag 16 from the bag inlet 45 via the guide tube 38 of the coin guide member 37. . In addition, a handle 44 a is provided on the front surface of the upper lid 44 as a grip portion when the coin container bag 16 is inserted into and removed from the rail portion 40. The bag inlet 45 corresponds to the inlet.

Further, the upper lid 44 of the coin container bag 16 is provided with a metal plate-like shutter 46 that opens and closes the bag inlet 45. The shutter 46 is a slide type that can reciprocate along the attaching / detaching direction when the coin container bag 16 is inserted into and removed from the rail portion 40.
6 takes two positions, a closed position in which the shutter 6 is completely closed (the state shown in FIGS. 7 and 9) and an open position in which the shutter 46 is fully opened (the state shown in FIGS. 8 and 10). Further, when the shutter 46 is in the closed state, an internal locking mechanism (not shown) is locked to take a locked state, and it is impossible to open the shutter 46 by hand. Further, a key cylinder 47 for unlocking the shutter 46 is provided on the front side of the metal fitting 43a of the coin container bag 16. When the shutter 46 is locked at the closed position, when the mechanical key is inserted into the key cylinder 47 and the key cylinder 47 is turned, the internal locking mechanism is released and the shutter 46 is unlocked. Operation is allowed. The shutter 46 corresponds to the door.

Inside the coin container bag 16, a pair of shutter guide plates 48 and 48 (see FIG. 7) for guiding the reciprocating motion of the shutter 46 are provided on both side edges in the width direction of the shutter 46 (in the direction of arrow B <b> 1 in FIG. 7). Is provided. The shutter guide plates 48, 48 are long and thin, and are attached to a base plate 49, which is an upper wall of the coin container bag 16 (upper cover 44), with a predetermined gap therebetween. The inserted state is taken. The shutter 46 is supported on both sides by shutter guide plates 48, 48, while the coin container bag 16.
Reciprocation along the length direction (in the direction of arrow B2 in FIG. 7) is allowed.

In addition, a lock lever 50 is provided at a position near the side edge of the upper lid 44 as an operation location when the shutter 46 in the open state is switched to the closed state. That is, the shutter 4
6, when the shutter 46 is in the open position, an internal latch mechanism (not shown) works to keep the shutter 46 fully open. However, when the lock lever 50 is operated when the shutter 46 is open,
The internal latch mechanism is released, and the shutter 46 slides to the closed side by the urging force of the urging member such as a spring and switches to the closed state. When the shutter 46 is fully closed,
The shutter 46 is locked by the internal locking mechanism.

Therefore, when setting the coin container bag 16 to the settlement machine 8, the shutter 46 of the coin container bag 16 is opened and the coin container bag 16 is attached to the rail portion 40. As a result, when the coin container bag 16 is set on the rail portion 40, the bag inlet 45 is opened, and coins that have flowed down from the coin chute 29 can enter the coin container bag 16. Further, when the coin container bag 16 is taken out from the settlement machine 8, the coin container bag 1
6, the lock portion lever 50 is pushed by the lever pushing portion 51 on the settlement machine main body 10 side, and the latch mechanism that has maintained the shutter 46 in the open state is released, and the shutter 46 is closed and closed. Locked in state. For this reason, after removing the coin container bag 16 from the settlement machine 8, it is prevented that coins are arbitrarily extracted from the coin container bag 16.

A hooking portion 52 is bent and formed at the front end position of the shutter 46 in the insertion direction as a finger hooking position when the shutter 46 in the closed state is opened. Further, a cutout groove 53 is formed on the side of the bag entrance 45 on the side in the insertion direction so as to be recessed by one step from the periphery. When the shutter 46 is in the fully closed state, the hooking portion 52 is in a state of being accommodated in the cutout groove 53. A cutout groove 54 is also formed at the periphery of the bag inlet 45 on the side of the shutter 46 in the drawing direction side as a groove portion to be fitted when the shutter 46 is fully opened.

Further, a pair of guide pieces 55, 5 extending along the depth direction of the coin container bag 16 as attachment locations to the guide rails 41, 42 on both side surfaces of the metal fitting 43 a of the coin container bag 16.
5 is extended. In the coin container bag 16, these guide pieces 55, 55 are guide rails 41.
, 42 is attached to be hung by hanging on the rail groove. These guide pieces 5
5 and 55, the guide piece 55a of the back side coin container bag 16a is arrange | positioned in the low position, and the guide piece 55b of the near side coin container bag 16b is arrange | positioned in the high position. For this reason, even if the guide rails 41 and 42 have different heights at the back and the front, the difference in height is caused by the guide pieces 55a and 55b.
In the case of attachment to the rail part 40, these coin container bags 16a,
16b is set in the settlement machine 8 with the top surface flush.

In these guide pieces 55a and 55b, the guide piece 55a is formed narrow and the guide piece 55b is formed wide. On the other hand, the guide rails 41 and 42 are also formed such that the upper guide rail 42 is narrow and the lower guide rail 41 is wide in accordance with the widths of the guide pieces 55a and 55b. For this reason, the back side coin container bag 16a cannot be attached to the upper guide rail 42, and the setting error of the back side coin container bag 16a is prevented. Further, when the front coin container bag 16b is attached to the lower guide rail 41, a backlash occurs due to the difference in width, and this makes it possible to recognize an attachment error.

Further, a seat portion 56 protruding from the periphery by a predetermined amount is provided on the front side of the metal fitting 43a of the back side coin container bag 16a. A pair of positioning holes 57 arranged along the width direction of the coin container bag 16 are recessed in the seat portion 56. On the other hand, a pair of positioning projections 58 arranged along the width direction of the coin container bag 16 project from the back surface of the metal fitting 43a in both the back-side coin container bag 16a and the near-side coin container bag 16b. Front side coin container bag 16
The protrusion 58b of b is arrange | positioned in the position higher than the protrusion 58a of the back side coin container bag 16a,
When the rail portion 40 is set, it can be fitted into the positioning hole 57 of the front back side coin container bag 16a.

Here, as shown in FIG. 11, when the coin container bags 16a and 16b are set to the guide rails 41 and 42 in the correct combination, the positioning holes 57 of the back coin container bag 16a
The protrusion 58b of the front-side coin container bag 16b behind it is fitted, so that the front-side coin container bag 16b does not protrude from the coin safe storage chamber 17, and the coin safe storage chamber door 18 can be closed. On the other hand, if two wrong-side coin container bags 16a are attached to the lower guide rail 41 by mistake, the protrusion 5 of the rear-side coin container bag 16a at the rear is determined from the relationship of the height position.
8a does not fit into the positioning hole 57 of the front back side coin container bag 16a, and the rear back side coin container bag 16a protrudes from the coin safe storage chamber 17 by the length of the protrusion 58a. As a result, the coin safe storage room door 18 cannot be closed, and it is possible to notice an incorrect setting of the coin container bag 16.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 6, the settlement machine main body 10 has a shutter open / close detection sensor 59 for detecting whether the coin container bag 16 set on the rail portion 40 is opened or closed, that is, whether there is a defective set in the coin container bag 16. A plurality (eight in this example) is provided for each coin container bag 16. For example, when the shutter opening / closing detection sensor 59 is optical, a photo interrupter is used, and the shutter opening / closing detection sensor 59 is disposed at an upper position of the rail portion 40, that is, an upper position of the coin container bag 16 in a set state.

On the other hand, as shown in FIGS. 7 to 10, the upper lid 44 of the coin container bag 16 has a light reflecting portion as a reflection portion of light emitted from the shutter opening / closing detection sensor 59 at a position facing the shutter opening / closing detection sensor 59. 60 is provided. The light reflecting portion 60 is formed by penetrating the upper lid 44 and penetrating a through hole 61. The light reflection suppressing portion 62 is formed by applying a portion exposed through the through hole 61 with a paint such as black. ing. When the shutter 46 is in the open state, the light reflecting portion 60 is in a state where the light reflection suppressing portion 62 is hidden by the shutter 46, and when the shutter 46 is in the closed state, the state where the shutter 46 is covered is eliminated. , Light reflection part 6
0 is exposed to the outside.

Here, when the shutter 46 is in the open state, the light reflection coefficient (light reflection degree) of the light reflecting unit 60 is close to the metal (stainless steel) shutter 46, so that the reflected light of the light reflecting unit 60 is reflected. The brightness increases. On the other hand, when the shutter 46 is in the closed state, the light reflection coefficient (the degree of light reflection) of the light reflecting unit 60 is close to the light reflection suppressing unit 62, so that the brightness of the reflected light of the light reflecting unit 60 is lowered. Therefore, the shutter open / close detection sensor 59 detects the opening / closing of the shutter 46 by looking at the brightness of the reflected light received from the light reflecting section 60. For example, if the reflected light with high brightness is detected, the shutter 46 is detected to be open. If the reflected light with low luminance is detected, it is detected that the shutter 46 is in the closed state.

In addition, as shown in FIG. 6, each guide rail 41, 42 has a coin container bag set detection sensor 63 for detecting whether or not the coin container bag 16 is set to the specified position of the rail portion 40 for each coin container bag 16. A plurality (eight in this example) are provided. The coin container bag set detection sensor 63 is made of, for example, a photo interrupter when taking an optical type. When the coin container bag 16 is set on the guide rails 41 and 42 and positioned at the opposite position, the coin container bag set detection sensor 63 reflects the high-intensity light by the coin container bag 16. Whether or not the coin container bag 16 is set is detected with luminance.

As shown in FIG. 12, a display unit 64 made of, for example, a liquid crystal display is provided on the back surface of the settlement machine main body 10. In addition to various input screens, error messages, and the like, the display unit 64 has a set number that determines how many of the coin container bags 16 that can be attached are to be collected in an operation mode. (For example, two, four, and six even settings) are displayed as a picture, or the coin container bag 16 that is displayed as a picture is highlighted in a different color. In addition, an input unit 65 is provided below the display unit 64 as an input system of the settlement machine 8. The input unit 65 includes various buttons such as numeric buttons, up / down / left / right buttons, an execution button, and a cancel button, and is operated when setting the operating state of the settlement machine 8 (for example, the set number of coin container bags 16). The

As shown in FIGS. 13 to 16, the coin container bags 16 (16 a, 16 b) are placed in the checkout machines 8 when each of the rail portions 40 is in a half-open state due to foreign matter being caught when the shutter 46 is in the closed state. A coin container bag extraction restriction mechanism 66 is provided to prevent the recovered coins from being arbitrarily extracted from the coin container bag 16 whose shutter 46 is half-opened by preventing it from being extracted from the (rail portion 40). The coin container bag extraction restriction mechanism 66 is provided with a bag side extraction restriction mechanism 67 as a mechanism on the coin container bag 16 side of the extraction restriction mechanism 66. Further, the coin container bag sampling restriction mechanism 66 includes a settlement machine main body 10 of the sampling restriction mechanism 66.
A main body side extraction limiting mechanism 68 is provided as a side mechanism. The coin container bag extraction restriction mechanism 66 corresponds to a storage part extraction restriction mechanism, the bag side extraction restriction mechanism 67 corresponds to a storage part side mechanism, and the main body side extraction restriction mechanism 68 corresponds to an apparatus main body side mechanism.

First, the bag-side extraction restricting mechanism 67 will be described.
6 and extending in the entire width direction, the shutter bending portion 69 can be rotated in the vertical direction (in the direction of arrow U in FIG. 16) with respect to the shutter main body 71 via a hinge (hereinafter referred to as a shutter side hinge) 70. It is attached. The shutter-side hinge 70 has two metal plates 73 and 74 that are biased by a spring portion 72 therebetween, one of which is fixed to the shutter bending portion 69 and the other is fixed to the shutter main body 71. The shutter-side hinge 70 always urges the shutter bending portion 69 to be pushed upward, and when the shutter bending portion 69 is rotated downward, the shutter bending portion 69 is pushed up from below, thereby causing the shutter bending portion 69 to move. Return to the original position before rotation. That is, the shutter bending portion 69 normally takes a normal position (a state shown in FIG. 13) aligned horizontally with the shutter main body 71. When a pushing force is applied from above in this position, the shutter bending portion 69 is rotated downward by this force. When the escape position (state of FIG. 16) is taken and this pushing force is released,
The shutter-side hinge 70 automatically returns to the original normal position. The shutter bending portion 69
Corresponds to the locking portion.

Further, as shown in FIGS. 13 to 16, the tip of each shutter guide plate 48, 48 has
A receiving portion 75 is formed by bending the tip end downward. Therefore, the shutter guide plates 48 and 48 have a shape having a horizontal portion 76 extending in parallel with the base plate 49 (shutter 46) and a receiving portion 75 at the tip of the horizontal portion 76. Receiver 7
5 is the shutter bent portion 6 when the shutter bent portion 69 is located at a position facing itself.
This is to allow 9 to rotate downward. The horizontal portion 76 is for prohibiting the shutter bending portion 69 from rotating downward when the shutter bending portion 69 is located at a position facing the horizontal portion 76.

A striker 77 extending straight downward is formed as a component of a latch mechanism that maintains the fully opened shutter 46 in the open state at a position opposite to the shutter bending portion 69 on the back surface of the shutter 46 (shutter body 71). ing. For this reason, when the shutter 46 is fully opened, the striker 77 is engaged with a latch (not shown) on the shutter 46 side,
The shutter 46 is held in a fully closed state. When the lock portion lever 50 is operated when the shutter 46 is fully open, the latch is moved by the lever operation, and the striker 77 is operated.
The shutter 46 is allowed to close.

Next, the main body side extraction limiting mechanism 68 will be described. As shown in FIG. 15, each rail portion 40 has a pair of L-shaped attachment pieces 78, 78 on both sides in the width direction of the coin container bag 16. Is provided. These attachment pieces 78, 78 have a frame portion 7 of the main body side extraction limiting mechanism 68.
9 is attached and fixed by a screw 80. The frame portion 79 includes each rail portion 40.
(In this example, a total of four), one is shared by the back side coin container bag 16a and the front side coin container bag 16b in the same row. That is, the main body side extraction limiting mechanism 68 is shared by the bag side extraction limiting mechanism 67 of the back side coin container bag 16a and the bag side extraction limiting mechanism 67 of the near side coin container bag 16b. The frame portion 79 is hollowed out to form a space portion 81 and have leg portions 82 and 82 on both sides. The leg portions 82 and 82 are attachment destinations to the attachment pieces 78 and 78, respectively. ing. A single support plate 83 is attached and fixed to the frame portion 79 with screws 84 on both sides so as to close the space portion 81. These screws 80 and 84 are attached so as to be screwed from the entrance side of the coin safe storage chamber 17.

Further, a guide portion 85 that covers the plurality of frame portions 79 from the entrance side of the coin safe storage chamber 17 is provided near the entrance of the rail portion 40 at an upper position thereof. The guide portion 85 is positioned on a screw shaft (screw line) when the screws 80 and 84 are screwed to the attachment destination, and is in a screwed state so that the frame portion 79 and the support plate 83 can be illegally removed from the settlement machine 8. This is to prevent unauthorized removal of the frame portion 79 and the support plate 83 by not providing a working space for this action even if the screws 80 and 84 are turned by a screwdriver or the like.

On the surface of the support plate 83 on the coin chute 29 side, that is, the surface hidden inside when the room is viewed from the entrance of the coin safe storage chamber 17, a hinge (hereinafter referred to as a main body side hinge) is used as a contact point of the shutter bending portion 69. 86 is attached via a plurality (two in this example) of screws 87, 87 (see FIG. 15). The main body hinge 86 has one of two metal plates sandwiching a spring portion (torsion spring) 88 fixed to a support plate 83 by screws 87 and 87 as a fixing piece 89, and the other plate is regulated. The piece 90 is attached in a state that it can be rotated in the bag insertion / removal direction (arrow V direction in FIG. 13) and protrudes from the lower end of the support plate 83 by a predetermined amount. That is, the restriction piece 90 of the main body side hinge 86 is a shutter bending portion 69 when the coin container bag 16 is inserted into and removed from the rail portion 40.
The arrangement state is such that only the rotational movement to the inside of the settlement machine main body 10 is permitted. The restriction piece 90 corresponds to the locked portion.

When attaching the coin container bag 16 to the rail portion 40, the main body side hinge 86 is pushed up by the shutter bending portion 69 when the shutter bending portion 69 comes into contact with the restriction piece 90, and the insertion direction of the container bag 16 Rotate in the (mounting direction) and open. This
Even if the main body side hinge 86 is attached to the rail part 40, the operation of inserting the coin container bag 16 into the rail part 40 is allowed. Then, the restriction piece 90 in the opened state has the shutter bending portion 6.
When the push-up state by 9 is released, it moves downward by the urging force of the spring portion 88, contacts the support plate 83 standing in the vertical direction, and further returns are restricted. Return to the closed state.

Further, when the coin container bag 16 set on the rail portion 40 is pulled out from the rail portion 40, the lock portion lever 50 is operated in the pulling process and the shutter 46 is switched to the closed state. In the closed state, as shown in FIGS. 13 to 16, the shutter bending portion 69 takes a position facing the receiving portion 75 of the shutter guide plates 48 and 48 (that is, a sampling permission state). Therefore, when the coin container bag 16 is removed from the rail portion 40, if the shutter 46 is in a fully closed state, even if the shutter bending portion 69 abuts on the restriction piece 90 of the main body hinge 86 during the extraction process, the shutter The side hinge 70 and the receiving portion 75 allow the shutter bent portion 69 to escape downward, and the coin container bag 16 can be removed.

On the other hand, as shown in FIGS. 17 to 20, for example, when the shutter 46 is closed in a state in which foreign matter is attached to the square hole line 91, the shutter 46 is not fully closed by the foreign matter and is in a half-open state. In this case, as shown in FIGS. 19 and 20, the shutter 46 stops before the fully closed position by the amount of the foreign matter, and the shutter bending portion 69 takes a position facing the horizontal portion 76 (that is, an unremovable state). For this reason, when the coin container bag 16 is removed from the rail portion 40, the shutter bending portion 69 cannot be released downward when the shutter bending portion 69 abuts on the restriction piece 90 of the main body hinge 86 in the extraction process. . Therefore, the shutter bending part 69 is caught by the restriction piece 90, and the coin container bag 16 cannot be removed from the rail part 40.

Next, operations of various components when attaching the coin container bag 16 to the rail portion 40 and operations of various components when removing the coin container bag 16 from the rail portion 40 will be described.
First, as shown in FIGS. 13 to 16, it is assumed that no foreign matter is attached to the bag inlet 45 of the coin container bag 16. When the coin container bag 16 is set on the rail portion 40, a mechanical key is inserted into the key cylinder 47 and the key cylinder 47 is rotated to unlock the shutter 46 locked in the fully closed position. As a result, the opening operation of the shutter 46 becomes possible, the shutter 46 is pulled to the near side, and the shutter 46 is slid to the fully opened position. When the shutter 46 reaches the fully open position, the latch mechanism in the coin container bag 16 is activated, and the fully open state of the shutter 46 is maintained.

Then, after opening the shutter 46, the operator inserts the coin container bag 16 into the rail portion 40 and executes the setting operation of the coin container bag 16. During the process of inserting the coin container bag 16 into the rail portion 40, the shutter bending portion 69 moves so as to come into contact with the restriction piece 90 of the main body side hinge 86. However, since the restriction piece 90 is allowed to move toward the inside of the settlement machine main body 10, the restriction piece 90 rotates upward as the coin container bag 16 is inserted and moved as shown in FIG. 13. Thus, the operation of inserting the coin container bag 16 can be continued. Therefore, even if the coin container bag extraction restriction mechanism 66 is provided between the settlement machine main body 10 and the coin container bag 16, the coin container bag 16 can be set on the rail portion 40 as usual. Then, the coins that are separated by the settlement machine 8 and collected in a lump can be stored in the coin container bag 16.

Subsequently, it is assumed that the coin container bag 16 needs to be replaced with an empty one, for example, the coin container bag 16 is full, and the coin container bag 16 is removed from the rail portion 40. When the withdrawal of the coin container bag 16 in the set state is started and the removal operation is started, the lock portion lever 50 of the coin container bag 16 is pushed by the lever pushing portion 51 on the settlement machine main body 10 side in this extraction start process. The latch mechanism of the shutter 46 is released. This
The shutter 46 that has been fully opened until then starts the closing operation in synchronization with the extraction of the coin container bag 16.

At this time, as shown in FIGS. 14 and 15, if no foreign matter is attached to the square hole line 91 of the bag inlet 45, the shutter 46 is in a fully closed state in which the bag inlet 45 is completely closed. For this reason, the shutter bending portion 69 at the front end position of the shutter 46 is connected to the shutter guide plates 48 and 4.
The position state which opposes the receiving part 75 of 8 is taken. Therefore, in the process of extracting the coin container bag 16,
As shown in FIG. 16, even when the shutter bending portion 69 abuts on the restriction piece 90 of the main body side hinge 86,
At this time, the shutter bending portion 69 rotates downward against the biasing force of the shutter side hinge 70, and the shutter bending portion 69 escapes downward by the receiving portion 75. Thereby, the shutter bending part 69 is obtained.
However, the coin container bag 16 can be removed from the rail portion 40.

By the way, as shown in FIG. 17, for example, when a foreign object (for example, 2 mm or more) is attached to the square hole line 91, the shutter 46 is in a fully closed and locked state with the foreign object in between. Cannot be opened, and a half-open state in which the opening operation is manually permitted is taken. Therefore, if the coin container bag 16 is removed from the rail part 40 in this state, after removing the coin container bag 16 from the rail part 40, the shutter 46 may be opened without permission to pull out the coins inside. Therefore, it cannot be denied that a malicious third party attaches a foreign object to the square hole line 91 in advance, performs a setting operation, and attempts to steal the coin from the coin container bag 16 after payment.

When the coin container bag 16 having such foreign matter attached to the square hole line 91 is set on the rail portion 40, as shown in FIG. 18, this is the same as normal when no foreign matter is attached to the square hole line 91. In addition, it is permitted to insert the coin container bag 16 into the rail portion 40 by the movement of the restricting piece 90 of the main body side hinge 86 turning to the inner side of the settlement machine main body 10. That is, the restriction piece 90 of the main body side hinge 86 can be turned to the inside of the settlement machine main body 10 regardless of whether or not a foreign object is attached to the square hole line 91. Even if foreign matter is attached, the coin container bag 16 can be set on the rail portion 40.

Then, the case where the coin container bag 16 which the foreign material attached to the square hole line 91 is removed from the rail part 40 is assumed. Also in this case, in the process of starting the extraction of the coin container bag 16, the lock portion lever 50 is pushed by the lever pushing portion 51 on the settlement machine main body 10 side, and the closing operation of the shutter 46 is executed. However, at this time, as shown in FIG. 19, a foreign object is caught between the shutter 46 and the square hole line 91, and the shutter 46 is in a half-open state. At this time, the shutter 46 does not take the fully closed and locked state and stops before the fully closed position, and the shutter bending portion 69 at the front end position of the shutter 46 does not reach the receiving portion 75 and faces the horizontal portion 76 in front thereof. The position state to take.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 20, in the process of removing the coin container bag 16, the shutter bending portion 69 is removed.
Is in contact with the restricting piece 90 of the main body side hinge 86, the horizontal portion 76 becomes the receiving surface at this time,
The shutter bending portion 69 is not permitted to rotate downward. Therefore, the shutter bending portion 6
9 cannot escape downward, the shutter bending portion 69 is caught by the restriction piece 90, and the coin container bag 16 cannot be removed from the rail portion 40. Therefore, in this example, since the shutter 46 is in a half-open state so that the coin container bag 16 that can be manually opened cannot be removed from the rail portion 40, foreign matter is put into the square hole line 91. It is possible to prevent theft by attaching and illegally extracting coins in the bag.

According to the configuration of the present embodiment, the following effects can be obtained.
(1) A coin container bag removal restriction mechanism 66 that disables the removal of the coin container bag 16 from the rail portion 40 when the shutter 46 is not in the fully closed state is provided in the checkout machine 8, and foreign matter is caught between the shutter 46. For example, when the fully closed state cannot be taken, the coin container bag 16 is prevented from being removed from the settlement machine main body 10. Therefore, the shutter 46 is not locked and the shutter 46
Since it is impossible to remove the coin container bag 16 in the state that can be opened,
The theft of coins paid in the coin container bag 16 can be prevented. Moreover, when setting the coin container bag 16 to the rail part 40, for example, the square hole line 9 of the coin container bag 16 is used.
Even if an attempt is made to steal the paid coin by inserting a foreign object into the coin 1, theft of the coin due to this act can also be prevented.

(2) The coin container bag extraction restriction mechanism 66 is in an extraction-permitted state in which the escape of the shutter bending portion 69 is allowed when the shutter 46 is in the fully closed position, and the shutter when the shutter 46 stops before the fully closed position. It is a mechanical type in which the operation state is switched depending on the position of the shutter 46 such that the bending portion 69 cannot be escaped and the extraction portion cannot be removed. For this reason, the mechanical structure of the coin container bag extraction restriction mechanism 66 can be simplified.

(3) The coin container bag extraction restriction mechanism 66 includes two hinges 70 and 86, a shutter bending portion 69 formed by dividing the tip of the shutter 46, and a receiving portion 75 where the tip of the shutter guide plate 48 is bent. Consists of. Therefore, the coin container bag extraction restriction mechanism 66 can be realized by a group of parts having a simple part structure such as the hinges 70 and 86, the shutter bending part 69, and the receiving part 75.

(4) When the positioning hole 57 and the positioning projection 58 are provided in the coin container bag 16 and the two back-side coin container bags 16a and 16a are set on the lower guide rail 41, the positioning projection 58 However, the coin container bag 16 jumps out of the coin safe storage chamber 17 and the coin safe storage chamber door 18 cannot be closed completely without entering the positioning hole 57. Therefore, when two back-side coin container bags 16a are mistakenly set on the lower guide rail 41, the user is notified of the setting error because the coin safe storage door 18 cannot be closed. Therefore, it is possible to prevent an erroneous setting of the coin container bag 16.

(5) For the open / closed state of the shutter 46, for example, a system in which the shutter 46 is indirectly viewed from the settlement machine main body 10 side by a shutter open / close detection sensor 59 made of a photocoupler or the like is employed. For this reason, if the method of viewing the shutter open / closed state on the coin container bag 16 side is adopted, when the coin container bag 16 is set on the rail portion 40, these shutter open / close signals are sent to the settlement machine main body 10 side. Both need to be electrically connected, leading to concerns about the complexity of these components. However, if the open / close state of the shutter 46 is viewed indirectly from the payment machine main body 10 side as in this example, there is no need to electrically connect the payment machine main body 10 and the coin container bag 16. Simplification of parts can be achieved.

Note that the embodiment is not limited to the configuration described so far, and may be modified as follows.
The coin container bag extraction restriction mechanism 66 is not necessarily limited to a mechanical type, and may be an electric type, for example. In this case, when the sensor 46 detects that the shutter 46 is not fully closed when the coin container bag 16 in the set state on the rail portion 40 is removed, for example, a motor mounted on the coin container bag 16 or the like. The locking part pops out by the actuator,
The example which makes the extraction of the coin container bag 16 impossible by hooking this on the adjustment machine main body 10 is given.

When the coin container bag extraction restriction mechanism 66 is mechanical as shown in this example, the hinge 70,
86, the structure using the shutter bending portion 69 and the receiving portion 75 is not limited, and various structures can be employed.

The shutter bending portion 69 is not limited to a shape that extends across the entire width direction at the tip of the shutter 46. That is, if it is formed in a part of the shutter 46, it is sufficient.

The shutter bending portion 69 is not limited to being formed at the tip position of the shutter 46, and may be disposed at any position of the shutter 46.
The receiving portion 75 is not limited to being formed by bending the distal ends of the shutter guide plates 48 and 48, and may be formed by omitting the shutter guide plates 48 and 48, for example. That is, the receiving portion 75 may be an omitted portion without the shutter guide plates 48 and 48.

The shape of the shutter guide plates 48, 48 is not necessarily limited to an elongated plate shape, and can be appropriately changed according to the shape and arrangement position of the shutter bending portion 69.
The biasing member that pushes up the shutter bending portion 69 from the bottom to the top is not necessarily limited to the hinge 70, and various members such as a simple spring or a rubber material can be employed. The same applies to the main body side hinge 86.

The restriction piece 90 of the main body side hinge 86 is not limited to the one of the hinge 86 used as the restriction piece 90 as it is. For example, like the shutter side hinge 70, a plate material is attached to the plate of the hinge 86. This may be the restriction piece 90.

-Collected materials are not necessarily limited to coins, and may be banknotes or tickets, for example.
-The door part of the coin container bag 16 is not necessarily limited to the shutter 46 which opens and closes, and it is good also as a rotation type which a door part turns around one side of a door part as a fulcrum.

The coin container bag 16 is not limited to a mechanical type in which the shutter 46 is automatically closed in conjunction with the removing operation when the coin container bag 16 is removed from the settlement machine main body 10. For example, when the operation of extracting the coin container bag 16 from the payment machine main body 10 is detected by a sensor or the like, the shutter 46 is closed by a motor or the like built in the coin container bag 16 and the shutter 46 is electrically closed. It may be an electric type that switches to.

The shutter open / close detection sensor 59 and the coin container bag set detection sensor 63 are not necessarily limited to the optical type, and other types such as a magnetic type may be employed.
The opening / closing of the shutter 46 is not necessarily limited to monitoring from the settlement machine main body 10 side. For example, a sensor may be provided in the coin container bag 16 and the shutter opening / closing may be monitored on the coin container bag 16 side. In this case, since it is necessary to send a shutter open / close state signal from the coin container bag 16 to the settlement machine body 10, it is necessary to electrically connect the coin container bag 16 and the settlement machine body 10.

The actuator of the coin storage destination switching mechanism 32 is not necessarily limited to the motor 35,
Other types such as a hydraulic cylinder may be employed.
-The coin storage unit is not necessarily limited to the rail-type attachment type to the settlement machine main body 10, and may be a cart type in which storage bags are arranged on a cart, for example.

・ Incorporate a coin counting device into the checkout machine 8 and use the coin counting device to count the number of coins and the amount of coins by counting not only the safe data obtained from the fare box safe 2 You may make it index to.
