Description

本発明は、硬貨の入出金処理を行なう硬貨処理装置に関する。   The present invention relates to a coin processing apparatus that performs deposit / withdrawal processing of coins.

従来、スーパー、量販店、ショッピングセンター等の小売店舗においてはPOSレジスタが使用されており、当該POSレジスタの内部には、硬貨の入出金処理を行なう硬貨処理装置があった。この種の硬貨処理装置は、図7に示す構成の搬送処理が知られている。図7は従来の硬貨処理装置の入金搬送路の説明図である。同図に示したように硬貨処理装置は、図示しない硬貨入金口に投入された硬貨Cを1枚毎に分離して硬貨処理装置内部へ繰り出す硬貨繰出部50と、硬貨繰出部50から繰り出された硬貨Cを金種毎の金種別選別穴56へ1枚毎に搬送するための入金搬送路55とからなる。硬貨繰出部50には図示しない繰出口が設けられ、更に当該繰出口から繰り出された硬貨Cを入金搬送路55へ受け渡すための繰出ローラ51が設けられている。   Conventionally, POS registers are used in retail stores such as supermarkets, mass merchandisers, shopping centers, and the like, and there are coin processing devices that perform deposit / withdrawal processing of coins. As for this kind of coin processing apparatus, the conveyance process of the structure shown in FIG. 7 is known. FIG. 7 is an explanatory view of a deposit conveyance path of a conventional coin processing apparatus. As shown in the figure, the coin processing device is fed from a coin feeding unit 50 that separates the coins C inserted into a coin deposit port (not shown) one by one and feeds them into the coin processing device, and the coin feeding unit 50. In addition, a coin transfer path 55 for transferring the coins C to the denomination hole 56 for each denomination one by one. The coin feeding unit 50 is provided with a feeding port (not shown), and further provided with a feeding roller 51 for delivering the coin C fed from the feeding port to the deposit conveyance path 55.

更に、入金搬送路55には、繰出ローラ51からの硬貨Cを受け取って搬送する搬送ベルト58と、硬貨Cの材質や形状を検知することにより正規の硬貨であるか否かの判定をする真偽判定及び金種の判別をする金種判定を行なう認識部59と、真偽判定により正規の硬貨でないと判定された硬貨Cをリジェクトするリジェクト穴69が配置されている。更に、前記入金搬送路55には、認識部59を正常に通過した硬貨Cを図示しない金種別収納庫に落下させるための複数の金種別選別穴56が、径の小さい金種順に配置されている。金種別選別穴56は、金種毎に異なる硬貨Cの外径の差を利用して硬貨Cを落下させる。ここで前記搬送ベルト58は繰出ローラ51より高速で回転する。これにより、入金搬送路55を搬送される複数の硬貨Cの間隔は所定の距離に確保され、認識部59による真偽判定及び金種判定の動作、リジェクト穴69によるリジェクト動作及び金種別選別穴56による選別動作が正確に行なわれる。   Further, in the deposit conveyance path 55, the conveyance belt 58 that receives and conveys the coin C from the feeding roller 51, and the true or false of determining whether or not it is a regular coin by detecting the material and shape of the coin C. A recognition unit 59 that performs a denomination determination and a denomination determination and a reject hole 69 that rejects a coin C that is determined not to be a regular coin by the authenticity determination are arranged. Furthermore, a plurality of denomination sorting holes 56 for dropping the coins C that have normally passed through the recognition unit 59 to a denomination storage unit (not shown) are arranged in the deposit conveyance path 55 in the order of denominations with the smallest diameter. Yes. The denomination sorting hole 56 drops the coin C by using the difference in the outer diameter of the coin C that is different for each denomination. Here, the conveying belt 58 rotates at a higher speed than the feeding roller 51. Thereby, the interval of the plurality of coins C conveyed through the deposit conveyance path 55 is secured at a predetermined distance, the authenticity determination and denomination determination operation by the recognition unit 59, the rejection operation by the rejection hole 69 and the denomination selection hole. The sorting operation according to 56 is performed accurately.

そして、それぞれの金種別選別穴56近傍には硬貨Cの搬送を監視する複数の搬送監視センサ54が配置され、更に、幅寄せガイド57により硬貨Cの搬送が所定の搬送方向に誘導されるようになっている。前記搬送監視センサ54は、搬送された硬貨Cの到着を検知するためのセンサであり、オフからオンに切り替わる時間を測定して各搬送監視センサ54間での搬送が正常に行なわれているかを監視する。   A plurality of conveyance monitoring sensors 54 for monitoring the conveyance of the coins C are arranged in the vicinity of each denomination sorting hole 56, and the conveyance of the coins C is guided in a predetermined conveyance direction by the width adjusting guide 57. It has become. The transport monitoring sensor 54 is a sensor for detecting the arrival of the transported coin C. The transport monitoring sensor 54 measures the time for switching from OFF to ON to determine whether the transport between the transport monitoring sensors 54 is normally performed. Monitor.

以上の構成により硬貨繰出部50から繰り出された硬貨Cは、幅寄せガイド57によりガイドされ、認識部59にて真偽判定及び金種判定動作を行い、正規の硬貨でないときは、リジェクト穴69より落下される。一方、正規の硬貨として判定された硬貨Cは、搬送監視センサ54により搬送を監視されながら、硬貨Cの金種毎の大きさに応じた金種別選別穴56から落下し、図示しない金種別収納庫に収納される。   The coin C fed out from the coin feeding unit 50 with the above configuration is guided by the width adjusting guide 57, performs the authenticity determination and denomination determination operation in the recognition unit 59, and if it is not a regular coin, the reject hole 69 More fallen. On the other hand, the coin C determined as a regular coin falls from the denomination hole 56 according to the size of each denomination of the coin C while being monitored by the transfer monitoring sensor 54, and stores the denomination not shown. It is stored in the storage.

ここで上記従来の硬貨処理装置では、前記搬送ベルト58に汚れが付着すると、当該汚れが認識部59の真偽判定等に使用するA/D変換したスキャニングデータに写り込み、判定に悪影響を与え、判定精度が低下し、リジェクト率が高くなってしまうという問題があった。また、搬送ベルト58の汚れが搬送ベルト58のグリップ力を低下させ、搬送速度が変化し、搬送監視センサ54の出力による搬送エラーを発生させることもあった。   Here, in the above-described conventional coin processing apparatus, if dirt is attached to the transport belt 58, the dirt is reflected in the A / D converted scanning data used for authenticity determination of the recognition unit 59, and the determination is adversely affected. There is a problem that the determination accuracy is lowered and the rejection rate is increased. Further, the contamination of the conveyance belt 58 may reduce the gripping force of the conveyance belt 58, change the conveyance speed, and may cause a conveyance error due to the output of the conveyance monitoring sensor 54.

これらを防止するため、特開2008−65598号公報(特許文献1)には、搬送ベルトに当接して搬送する硬貨を認識して処理する硬貨処理装置において、認識動作時以外のときに前記搬送ベルトの汚れを検出する汚れ検出手段と、前記搬送ベルトを清掃する清掃手段とを設け、前記汚れ検出手段により汚れを検出したときは、前記清掃手段を動作させるようにした技術が開示されている。これにより、保守員による保守を最小限とするとともに、搬送ベルトの汚れによる入金リジェクト及び搬送エラーの頻度を減少させることにより、判定精度の向上に寄与することができた。   In order to prevent these problems, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2008-65598 (Patent Document 1) discloses that a coin processing apparatus that recognizes and processes coins that are transported in contact with a transport belt performs the transport when the recognition operation is not performed. A technique is disclosed in which a dirt detecting means for detecting dirt on the belt and a cleaning means for cleaning the conveying belt are provided, and the cleaning means is operated when the dirt is detected by the dirt detecting means. . As a result, the maintenance by the maintenance staff is minimized, and the frequency of deposit rejection due to contamination of the conveyor belt and the frequency of conveyance errors can be reduced, thereby contributing to the improvement of determination accuracy.

特開2008−65598号公報JP 2008-65598 A

しかしながら、前記特許文献1による硬貨処理装置においては、前記搬送ベルトの汚れを検出する汚れ検出手段と、前記搬送ベルトを清掃する清掃手段を設けるものであるため、搬送ベルトの汚れを未然に防止し或いは汚れを最小限にするものではなかった。即ち、従来の硬貨処理装置においては、搬送ベルトが繰出ローラとの搬送速度差による硬貨の受取り時に、スリップ負荷で磨耗することがあった。また、搬送ベルトの磨耗により発生した搬送ベルトヒダが前記認識部で誤検知され、判定エラーを引き起こし、正常硬貨をリジェクトさせていた。更に、搬送ベルトの磨耗により、搬送ベルトの搬送性能が低下し、前記搬送監視センサの監視により搬送不良を発生させていた。このように、搬送ベルトの寿命が短いことから、搬送ベルトを頻繁に交換する必要が生じていたという問題があった。一方、搬送ベルトの交換を少なくするために搬送ベルトに耐磨耗性を要求すると、搬送ベルトの柔軟性が低下し、これに対応するためには硬貨を押圧するための圧着ローラの数が増えることとなり、全体としては高価な硬貨処理装置となるという問題があった。   However, the coin processing apparatus according to Patent Document 1 is provided with a dirt detecting means for detecting dirt on the conveyor belt and a cleaning means for cleaning the conveyor belt, so that the conveyor belt is prevented from being dirty. Or it did not minimize the contamination. That is, in the conventional coin processing apparatus, the conveyor belt may be worn by a slip load when receiving the coin due to the difference in the conveyance speed with the feeding roller. In addition, a conveyor belt fold generated due to wear of the conveyor belt is erroneously detected by the recognition unit, causing a determination error and rejecting normal coins. Further, the conveyance performance of the conveyance belt is deteriorated due to wear of the conveyance belt, and the conveyance failure is generated by the monitoring of the conveyance monitoring sensor. As described above, since the life of the conveyor belt is short, there is a problem that the conveyor belt needs to be frequently replaced. On the other hand, if wear resistance is required for the conveyor belt in order to reduce the exchange of the conveyor belt, the flexibility of the conveyor belt is lowered, and in order to cope with this, the number of pressure rollers for pressing coins increases. As a result, there has been a problem that the whole becomes an expensive coin processing apparatus.

本発明が解決しようとする課題は、硬貨処理装置において、搬送ベルトの汚れを未然に防止し、かつ汚れを最小限にすることにある。即ち、搬送ベルトの磨耗を防止することにより、認識部での判定エラー及び正常硬貨のリジェクトをなくすとともに、搬送ベルトの搬送性能の低下を防ぎ、かつ搬送ベルトの寿命を延ばすことができる安価で長寿命の硬貨処理装置を提供することである。   The problem to be solved by the present invention is to prevent contamination of the conveyor belt and minimize contamination in a coin processing apparatus. In other words, by preventing wear of the conveyor belt, it is possible to eliminate the determination error and normal coin rejection in the recognition unit, prevent deterioration of the conveyor belt conveyance performance, and extend the life of the conveyor belt. It is to provide a long-life coin processing device.

上記課題を解決するために本発明は、所定の繰出速度で硬貨を順次繰り出す硬貨繰出手段と、前記硬貨繰出手段による繰出速度より高速で回転し、前記硬貨繰出手段によって繰り出された前記硬貨に当接して搬送する搬送ベルトを有する硬貨処理装置において、前記硬貨繰出手段による繰出速度より高速で回転し、前記硬貨繰出手段によって繰り出された前記硬貨を受取る中間ローラを、前記硬貨繰出手段と前記搬送ベルトの間に配置したことを特徴とするものである。   In order to solve the above-described problems, the present invention includes a coin feeding means for sequentially feeding coins at a predetermined feeding speed, and a coin that is rotated at a higher speed than the feeding speed by the coin feeding means and is fed to the coins fed by the coin feeding means. In a coin processing apparatus having a conveyor belt that contacts and conveys, an intermediate roller that rotates at a higher speed than the feeding speed by the coin feeding means and receives the coins fed by the coin feeding means, the coin feeding means and the conveyor belt It is characterized by having been arranged between.

本発明によれば、前記繰出ローラによって繰り出された前記硬貨を受取る中間ローラを繰出ローラと搬送ベルトの間に配置し、当該中間ローラを搬送ベルトと同様に高速で回転することにより、硬貨は繰出ローラから中間ローラを介して搬送ベルトに搬送するようにしたので、搬送ベルトが繰出ローラとの搬送速度差による硬貨の受取り時のスリップ負荷で磨耗するようなことがない。また、搬送ベルトの磨耗により発生した搬送ベルトヒダが認識部で誤検知され、判定エラーを引き起こしたり、正常硬貨をリジェクトさせたりするおそれもない。更に、搬送ベルトの磨耗により、搬送ベルトの搬送性能が低下し、搬送不良を発生させるおそれがなくなる。更にこれにより、搬送ベルトを頻繁に交換する必要がない安価で長寿命の硬貨処理装置を提供することができる。   According to the present invention, an intermediate roller that receives the coins fed by the feeding roller is disposed between the feeding roller and the conveyor belt, and the intermediate roller is rotated at a high speed in the same manner as the conveyor belt, so that the coins are fed out. Since the roller is conveyed to the conveying belt via the intermediate roller, the conveying belt is not worn by a slip load at the time of receiving a coin due to a difference in conveying speed with the feeding roller. In addition, there is no possibility that a conveyor belt fold caused by wear of the conveyor belt is erroneously detected by the recognition unit, causing a determination error or rejecting normal coins. Furthermore, due to wear of the conveyor belt, the conveyance performance of the conveyor belt is lowered, and there is no possibility of causing a conveyance failure. Furthermore, this makes it possible to provide an inexpensive and long-life coin processing device that does not require frequent replacement of the conveyor belt.

The coin processing apparatus 1 receives the coins received from the customer, the coin inlet 4, the coin feeding unit 10 that feeds the coins inserted into the coin inlet 4, and the coins fed from the coin feeding unit 10. A deposit conveyance path 5 that conveys the coins to the denomination selection hole 16 for each denomination, a plurality of denomination storages 6 that store the received coins in denominations and withdraw according to the withdrawal instruction, and denominations It has a withdrawal transport path 7 for transporting coins transported from the storage 6 for withdrawal, and a coin withdrawal port 37 for discharging the withdrawal coins.

入金搬送路5の入口付近には、硬貨の材質や形状(外形、外径、穴の有無等)を検知することにより正規の硬貨であるか否かの判定をする真偽判定及び金種の判別をする金種判定を行なう認識部9が設けられている。そして、入金搬送路5の後述する搬送プレート25には、認識部9の真偽判定により正規の硬貨でないと判定された硬貨Cをリジェクトするリジェクト穴19と、認識部9を正常に通過した硬貨Cを金種別収納庫6に落下させるための複数の金種別選別穴16が形成されている。リジェクト穴19によりリジェクトされた硬貨又は偽金は硬貨リジェクト部29へ落下される。   In the vicinity of the entrance of the deposit conveyance path 5, it is determined whether or not it is a genuine coin by detecting the material and shape of the coin (external shape, outer diameter, presence / absence of a hole, etc.) A recognition unit 9 that performs denomination determination is provided. And in the conveyance plate 25 mentioned later of the money_receiving | payment conveyance path 5, the rejection hole 19 which rejects the coin C determined not to be a regular coin by the authenticity determination of the recognition part 9, and the coin which passed the recognition part 9 normally A plurality of denomination sorting holes 16 for dropping C into the denomination storage 6 are formed. The coin or false money rejected by the reject hole 19 is dropped into the coin reject unit 29.

一方、認識部9による真偽判定の結果、正規の硬貨であると判定され、かつ金種判定が正常に行なわれたときは、硬貨は各金種別選別穴16まで搬送され、該当する金種別選別穴16より金種別収納庫6へ落下される。金種別選別穴16は各金種の硬貨の外形(外径)よりわずかに大きい穴で形成され、硬貨の外形の小さい順、即ち1円用、50円用、5円用、100円用、10円用、500円用の順に搬送方向に沿って配置されている。出金時においては、指定された金種に基づいて金種別収納庫6より、出金搬送路7を搬送されて硬貨出金口37へ排出される。各金種別選別穴16の硬貨搬送方向手前には搬送監視センサ24が設けられている。搬送監視センサ24は搬送された硬貨の到着を検知するためのセンサであり、オフからオンに切り替わる時間を測定して各搬送監視センサ24間での硬貨の搬送が正常に行なわれているかを監視する。   On the other hand, as a result of the authenticity determination by the recognition unit 9, when it is determined that the coin is a regular coin and the denomination is normally performed, the coin is conveyed to each denomination sorting hole 16, and the corresponding denomination It is dropped into the denomination storage 6 through the sorting hole 16. The denomination sorting hole 16 is formed with a hole that is slightly larger than the outer shape (outer diameter) of each denomination coin, and in order of decreasing outer shape of the coin, that is, for 1 yen, for 50 yen, for 5 yen, for 100 yen, They are arranged along the transport direction in the order of 10 yen and 500 yen.

図1は実施の形態に関する硬貨処理装置の入金搬送路の斜視図である。同図において、硬貨繰出部10は、円筒状をなして上部が前記硬貨入金口4であり、顧客から受け取った入金硬貨が硬貨入金口4に投入されると、当該硬貨Cを1枚毎に繰り出す。硬貨Cを繰り出す構造は、例えば、一定速度で回転する図示しない回転円盤を用いて、内部にある複数の硬貨Cを回転円盤の周囲に配設された周壁に沿って移動させて、当該硬貨Cを図示しない繰出口から矢印F方向へ1枚毎に繰り出す構造である。   FIG. 1 is a perspective view of a deposit conveyance path of a coin processing device according to an embodiment. In the same figure, the coin feeding unit 10 has a cylindrical shape and the upper part is the coin deposit slot 4. When a deposit coin received from a customer is inserted into the coin deposit slot 4, the coin C is put one by one. Pull out. The structure for paying out the coin C is, for example, by using a rotating disk (not shown) that rotates at a constant speed, and moving a plurality of coins C inside along a peripheral wall disposed around the rotating disk. Is fed out one by one from a feed outlet (not shown) in the direction of arrow F.

硬貨繰出部10から繰り出された硬貨Cは、硬貨繰出手段としての繰出ローラ11によって更に矢印F方向へ繰り出される。繰出ローラ11は硬貨繰出部10から繰り出された硬貨Cを、硬貨受渡部15において、入金搬送路5上の後述する中間ローラ12に受け渡す。繰出ローラ11は硬貨Cを確実に繰り出し、中間ローラ12に受け渡せればよく、その周速度は中間ローラ12の周速度より低速で回転する。   The coin C fed out from the coin feeding unit 10 is further fed out in the direction of arrow F by a feeding roller 11 as a coin feeding means. The feeding roller 11 delivers the coin C fed from the coin feeding unit 10 to an intermediate roller 12 described later on the deposit conveyance path 5 in the coin delivery unit 15. The feeding roller 11 only needs to reliably feed the coin C and pass it to the intermediate roller 12, and the peripheral speed rotates at a lower speed than the peripheral speed of the intermediate roller 12.

中間ローラ12は搬送ベルト8の駆動側のベルトプーリ18−1と同軸に設けられ、前記繰出ローラ11の周速度より高速で回転する。中間ローラ12は、繰出ローラ11によって繰り出された硬貨Cを、搬送プレート25と挟持することによって入金搬送路5上を少しだけ搬送する。そのことにより、硬貨Cは後述する幅寄せガイド35によって矢印G方向にスライドさせられ、その後、中間ローラ12は硬貨Cを搬送ベルト8に受け渡す。なお、幅寄せガイド35は硬貨Cの搬送を所定の搬送方向に誘導するものであるが、図1には幅寄せガイド35は図示を省略する。   The intermediate roller 12 is provided coaxially with the belt pulley 18-1 on the driving side of the conveying belt 8 and rotates at a higher speed than the peripheral speed of the feeding roller 11. The intermediate roller 12 conveys the coin C fed by the feeding roller 11 with the transport plate 25 a little along the deposit transport path 5. As a result, the coin C is slid in the direction of the arrow G by the width adjusting guide 35 described later, and then the intermediate roller 12 delivers the coin C to the transport belt 8. The width adjusting guide 35 guides the conveyance of the coins C in a predetermined conveying direction, but the width adjusting guide 35 is not shown in FIG.

搬送ベルト8は中間ローラ12から受取った硬貨Cを、搬送プレート25と挟持することによって搬送プレート25上を搬送する。搬送ベルト8は駆動側のベルトプーリ18−1と従動側のベルトプーリ18―2によって、前記繰出ローラ11の周速度より高速で回転する。   The conveying belt 8 conveys the coin C received from the intermediate roller 12 on the conveying plate 25 by sandwiching the coin C with the conveying plate 25. The conveyor belt 8 is rotated at a higher speed than the peripheral speed of the feeding roller 11 by a driving belt pulley 18-1 and a driven belt pulley 18-2.

入金搬送路5は搬送プレート25と搬送ベルト8によって構成され、両者により硬貨Cを挟持しながら搬送する。搬送プレート25には、前述の通り認識部9と、リジェクト穴19と複数の金種別選別孔16が設けられる。駆動側のベルトプーリ18−1と従動側のベルトプーリ18−2の間には複数の圧着ローラ28が設けられる。   The deposit conveyance path 5 is constituted by a conveyance plate 25 and a conveyance belt 8, and conveys the coin C while sandwiching the coin C therebetween. As described above, the transport plate 25 is provided with the recognition unit 9, the reject hole 19, and a plurality of denomination sorting holes 16. A plurality of pressure rollers 28 are provided between the driving belt pulley 18-1 and the driven belt pulley 18-2.

以上の構成の硬貨処理装置1の入金搬送路5により、硬貨繰出部10から繰り出された硬貨Cは、認識部9にて真偽判定及び金種判定動作を行い、正規の硬貨でないときは、リジェクト穴19より落下させるようにし、一方、正規の硬貨として判定された硬貨は、搬送監視センサ24により搬送を監視されながら、硬貨Cの金種毎の大きさに応じた金種別選別穴16から落下し金種別収納庫6に収納されるようになっている。   The coin C fed out from the coin feeding unit 10 by the deposit conveyance path 5 of the coin processing apparatus 1 having the above configuration performs the authenticity determination and the denomination determination operation in the recognition unit 9, and when it is not a regular coin, On the other hand, coins determined as regular coins are allowed to fall from the reject hole 19 while being monitored for conveyance by the conveyance monitoring sensor 24, and from the denomination hole 16 according to the size of each denomination of the coin C. It falls and is stored in the denomination storage 6.

図4は実施の形態に関する入金搬送路の硬貨受渡部の正面図である。硬貨受渡部15において、繰出ローラ11は低速の回転周速度V1で回転し、搬送プレート25上の硬貨Cに当接して、硬貨Cを挟持しながら繰り出す。中間ローラ12は高速の回転周速度V2で回転し、繰出ローラ11によって繰り出された硬貨Cを受取り、硬貨Cに当接して、硬貨Cを挟持しながら少しだけ搬送する。その後、硬貨Cは、搬送ベルト8の方向(前記矢印G方向)にスライドされることにより搬送ベルト8と搬送プレート25によって挟持される。搬送ベルト8はベルトプーリ18−1の回転により中間ローラ12と同様に高速の回転周速度V2で回転する。   FIG. 4 is a front view of the coin delivery section of the deposit conveyance path according to the embodiment. In the coin delivery unit 15, the feeding roller 11 rotates at a low rotational peripheral speed V <b> 1, contacts the coin C on the transport plate 25, and feeds the coin C while pinching it. The intermediate roller 12 rotates at a high rotational peripheral speed V2, receives the coin C fed out by the feeding roller 11, contacts the coin C, and conveys the coin C only a little while sandwiching it. Thereafter, the coin C is sandwiched between the transport belt 8 and the transport plate 25 by being slid in the direction of the transport belt 8 (the direction of the arrow G). The conveyor belt 8 rotates at a high rotational peripheral speed V2 in the same manner as the intermediate roller 12 by the rotation of the belt pulley 18-1.

ここで、回転周速度は前述の通りV1<V2の関係である。これにより、入金搬送路5を搬送される複数の硬貨Cの間隔は所定の距離に確保され、認識部9による真偽判定及び金種判定の動作、リジェクト穴19によるリジェクト動作及び金種別選別穴16による選別動作が正確に行なわれる。   Here, the rotational peripheral speed is in a relationship of V1 <V2 as described above. Thereby, the interval between the plurality of coins C conveyed in the deposit conveyance path 5 is secured at a predetermined distance, the authenticity determination and denomination determination operation by the recognition unit 9, the rejection operation by the rejection hole 19, and the denomination selection hole The sorting operation by 16 is performed accurately.

図5は入金搬送路の硬貨受渡部の平面図である。硬貨受渡部15において、繰出ローラ11は入金搬送路5の入口付近に設けられ、図示しない駆動源によって駆動される。中間ローラ12は、硬貨搬送方向に対し繰出ローラ11と同一直線上に設けられている。また、中間ローラ12の回転軸12aは、搬送ベルト8のベルトプーリ18−1の回転軸18−1aと同軸に設けられ、図示しない共通の駆動源によって駆動される。ここで、図示C1は、硬貨Cの先端が繰出ローラ11の下端Aと当接した状態を示す。その後、繰出ローラ11は低速の回転周速度V1で硬貨Cを矢印F方向に繰り出す。図示C2は、硬貨Cの先端が中間ローラ12の下端Bと当接し、同時に硬貨Cの後端が繰出ローラ11の下端Aと当接した状態を示す。   FIG. 5 is a plan view of the coin delivery section of the deposit conveyance path. In the coin delivery unit 15, the feeding roller 11 is provided near the entrance of the deposit conveyance path 5 and is driven by a driving source (not shown). The intermediate roller 12 is provided on the same straight line as the feeding roller 11 with respect to the coin conveyance direction. The rotation shaft 12a of the intermediate roller 12 is provided coaxially with the rotation shaft 18-1a of the belt pulley 18-1 of the conveyor belt 8, and is driven by a common drive source (not shown). Here, the illustration C <b> 1 shows a state where the tip of the coin C is in contact with the lower end A of the feeding roller 11. Thereafter, the feeding roller 11 feeds the coin C in the arrow F direction at a low rotational peripheral speed V1. C2 in the drawing shows a state in which the leading end of the coin C is in contact with the lower end B of the intermediate roller 12 and at the same time the rear end of the coin C is in contact with the lower end A of the feeding roller 11.

従って、繰出ローラ11と中間ローラ12の間で硬貨Cの円滑な受渡しが行なわれるためには、繰出ローラ11の回転軸11aと中間ローラ12の回転軸12aの軸間距離L(AB間)は、硬貨Cの搬送方向の媒体長(即ち、通常の円形硬貨の場合は直径)と等しいか又は短いのがよい。   Therefore, in order for the coin C to be smoothly delivered between the feeding roller 11 and the intermediate roller 12, the distance L between the rotation shaft 11a of the feeding roller 11 and the rotation shaft 12a of the intermediate roller 12 (between AB) is as follows. The length of the medium in the conveyance direction of the coin C (that is, the diameter in the case of a normal circular coin) is preferably equal to or shorter than the medium length.

硬貨Cが図示C2の状態から更に搬送されると、硬貨Cの後端は繰出ローラ11の下端Aとの当接が外れる。中間ローラ12によって搬送される硬貨Cは、幅寄せガイド35のスライド部35−2に沿ってスライドされる。幅寄せガイド35は入金搬送路5の側面に設けられ、搬送方向において繰出ローラ11から中間ローラ12にかけては搬送方向に平行に平行部35−1が設けられ、更に認識部9以降も搬送方向に平行に平行部35−3が設けられる。そして、中間ローラ12近傍は、搬送ベルト8方向に傾斜しているスライド部35−2が設けられている。こうして硬貨Cは、中間ローラ12とスライド部35−2により、幅寄せガイド35に沿って矢印G方向にスライドする。   When the coin C is further transported from the state shown in the figure C2, the rear end of the coin C comes out of contact with the lower end A of the feeding roller 11. The coin C conveyed by the intermediate roller 12 is slid along the slide part 35-2 of the width adjusting guide 35. The width adjusting guide 35 is provided on the side surface of the deposit conveyance path 5, and a parallel part 35-1 is provided in parallel with the conveyance direction from the feeding roller 11 to the intermediate roller 12 in the conveyance direction, and the recognition unit 9 and the subsequent parts are also arranged in the conveyance direction. Parallel portions 35-3 are provided in parallel. In the vicinity of the intermediate roller 12, a slide portion 35-2 that is inclined in the direction of the conveyor belt 8 is provided. Thus, the coin C slides in the direction of arrow G along the width adjusting guide 35 by the intermediate roller 12 and the slide portion 35-2.

繰出ローラ11の硬貨Cに対する当接が外れた後は、硬貨Cが矢印G方向にスライドすることにより、搬送ベルト8の当接開始点Dが硬貨Cの先端と当接する。即ち、搬送ベルト8は、中間ローラ12のみが硬貨Cと当接する状態となるまでは、搬送ベルト8が硬貨Cと当接しない距離に設けられる。   After the feeding roller 11 comes out of contact with the coin C, the contact start point D of the conveyor belt 8 comes into contact with the tip of the coin C as the coin C slides in the arrow G direction. That is, the conveyance belt 8 is provided at a distance where the conveyance belt 8 does not contact the coin C until only the intermediate roller 12 comes into contact with the coin C.

そして、更に硬貨Cが搬送されて、硬貨Cの後端と中間ローラ12の下端Bとの当接が外れると、図示C3に示すように、硬貨Cは搬送ベルト8のみによって入金搬送路5を矢印H方向に高速で搬送される。   Then, when the coin C is further conveyed and the contact between the rear end of the coin C and the lower end B of the intermediate roller 12 is released, the coin C passes through the deposit conveyance path 5 only by the conveyance belt 8 as shown in FIG. It is conveyed at high speed in the direction of arrow H.

前述のように、前記軸間距離L(AB間)は、硬貨Cの直径と等しいか又は短いのがよい。即ち、距離ABは最小径硬貨(1円)の直径に比較して等しいか又は短い。これにより、繰出ローラ11から中間ローラ12への受渡しが確実に行なうことができる。一方、距離ADは最大径硬貨(500円)の直径に比較して等しいか又は長い。これにより、高速で回転している搬送ベルト8は、繰出ローラ11によって低速で繰り出されている硬貨Cと直接接触することがなく、中間ローラ12によって一旦高速で搬送されている硬貨Cと接触することになる。従って、搬送ベルト8が繰出ローラ11との搬送速度差による硬貨Cの受取り時に、スリップ負荷で磨耗することがない。   As described above, the inter-axis distance L (between AB) is preferably equal to or shorter than the diameter of the coin C. That is, the distance AB is equal to or shorter than the diameter of the smallest diameter coin (1 yen). Thereby, delivery from the feeding roller 11 to the intermediate roller 12 can be performed reliably. On the other hand, the distance AD is equal to or longer than the diameter of the largest diameter coin (500 yen). Thereby, the conveyance belt 8 rotating at high speed does not directly contact the coin C fed out at a low speed by the feeding roller 11, but comes into contact with the coin C once conveyed at a high speed by the intermediate roller 12. It will be. Therefore, the conveyor belt 8 is not worn by the slip load when the coin C is received due to the difference in the conveyance speed with the feeding roller 11.

前記実施の形態において、中間ローラ12の回転軸12aは、搬送ベルト8のベルトプーリ18−1の回転軸18−1aと同軸であることを説明したが、これに限らない。即ち、中間ローラ12の回転軸12aは、搬送ベルト8のベルトプーリ18−1の回転軸18−1aの延長線上にあり、図示しない異なる駆動源により駆動されるものでもよい。   In the above-described embodiment, it has been described that the rotation shaft 12a of the intermediate roller 12 is coaxial with the rotation shaft 18-1a of the belt pulley 18-1 of the conveyor belt 8. However, the present invention is not limited to this. That is, the rotating shaft 12a of the intermediate roller 12 is on an extension line of the rotating shaft 18-1a of the belt pulley 18-1 of the conveying belt 8, and may be driven by a different driving source (not shown).

更に、次に示す実施の形態の変形例のように、中間ローラ12の回転軸12aは、搬送ベルト8のベルトプーリ18−1の回転軸18−1aより硬貨Cの搬送方向上流側に位置するものでもよい。   Further, as in the following modification of the embodiment, the rotating shaft 12a of the intermediate roller 12 is located upstream of the rotating shaft 18-1a of the belt pulley 18-1 of the conveying belt 8 in the conveying direction of the coins C. It may be a thing.

図6は入金搬送路の硬貨受渡部の変形例を示す正面図である。硬貨受渡部15において、硬貨搬送方向に対し、繰出ローラ11、中間ローラ12及び搬送ベルト8は同一直線上に設けられる。前述と同様に繰出ローラ11は低速の回転周速度V1で回転し、硬貨Cに当接して、硬貨Cを矢印F方向に繰り出す。中間ローラ12は高速の回転周速度V2で回転し、硬貨Cに当接すると繰出ローラ11から硬貨Cを受取り、硬貨Cを少しだけ搬送する。搬送ベルト8はベルトプーリ18−1の回転により中間ローラ12と同様に高速の回転周速度V2で回転し、硬貨Cを矢印H方向に搬送する。これらの回転周速度は前述と同様にV1<V2の関係である。   FIG. 6 is a front view showing a modification of the coin delivery section of the deposit conveyance path. In the coin delivery unit 15, the feeding roller 11, the intermediate roller 12, and the transport belt 8 are provided on the same straight line with respect to the coin transport direction. As described above, the feeding roller 11 rotates at a low rotational peripheral speed V1, contacts the coin C, and feeds the coin C in the direction of arrow F. The intermediate roller 12 rotates at a high rotational peripheral speed V2 and receives the coin C from the feeding roller 11 when it contacts the coin C, and conveys the coin C only a little. The conveyor belt 8 rotates at a high rotational peripheral speed V2 similarly to the intermediate roller 12 by the rotation of the belt pulley 18-1, and conveys the coin C in the direction of arrow H. These rotational peripheral speeds have a relationship of V1 <V2 as described above.

図示C4は、硬貨Cの後端が繰出ローラ11の下端Aと当接し、同時に硬貨Cの先端が中間ローラ12の下端Bと当接した状態を示す。硬貨Cが中間ローラ12によって更に搬送されると、硬貨Cの後端は繰出ローラ11の下端Aとの当接が外れる。その後は、搬送ベルト8の当接開始点Dが硬貨Cの先端と当接する。即ち、搬送ベルト8は、中間ローラ12のみが硬貨Cと当接する状態となるまでは、搬送ベルト8が硬貨Cと当接しない距離に設けられる。そして更に硬貨Cが搬送されて、硬貨Cの後端と中間ローラ12の下端Bとの当接が外れると、硬貨Cは搬送ベルト8のみによって入金搬送路5を矢印H方向に高速で搬送される。図示C5は搬送ベルト8のみによって搬送されている状態を示す。   C4 in the drawing shows a state in which the rear end of the coin C is in contact with the lower end A of the feeding roller 11 and at the same time the front end of the coin C is in contact with the lower end B of the intermediate roller 12. When the coin C is further conveyed by the intermediate roller 12, the rear end of the coin C is released from the lower end A of the feeding roller 11. Thereafter, the contact start point D of the conveyor belt 8 contacts the tip of the coin C. That is, the conveyance belt 8 is provided at a distance where the conveyance belt 8 does not contact the coin C until only the intermediate roller 12 comes into contact with the coin C. When the coin C is further transported and the contact between the rear end of the coin C and the lower end B of the intermediate roller 12 is released, the coin C is transported at high speed in the direction of arrow H by the transport belt 8 alone. The C5 in the figure shows a state where the sheet is conveyed only by the conveyor belt 8.

前述と同様に、繰出ローラ11の回転軸11aと中間ローラ12の回転軸12aの軸間距離L(AB間)は、硬貨Cの直径と等しいか又は短いのがよい。即ち、距離ABは最小径硬貨(1円)の直径に比較して等しいか又は短い。これにより、繰出ローラ11から中間ローラ12への受渡しが確実に行なうことができる。一方、距離ADは最大径硬貨(500円)の直径に比較して等しいか又は長い。これにより、高速で回転している搬送ベルト8は、繰出ローラ11によって低速で繰り出されている硬貨Cと直接接触することがなく、一旦中間ローラ12によって高速で搬送されている硬貨Cと接触することになる。従って、搬送ベルト8が繰出ローラ11との搬送速度差による硬貨Cの受取り時に、スリップ負荷で磨耗することがない。なお、同図において、幅寄せガイド35は図示を省略してあるが、実施の形態の変形例によれば、幅寄せガイド35のスライド部35−2を設けなくてよい。   As described above, the distance L (between AB) between the rotation shaft 11a of the feeding roller 11 and the rotation shaft 12a of the intermediate roller 12 is preferably equal to or shorter than the diameter of the coin C. That is, the distance AB is equal to or shorter than the diameter of the smallest diameter coin (1 yen). Thereby, delivery from the feeding roller 11 to the intermediate roller 12 can be performed reliably. On the other hand, the distance AD is equal to or longer than the diameter of the largest diameter coin (500 yen). As a result, the conveyor belt 8 rotating at high speed does not directly contact the coin C being fed at a low speed by the feeding roller 11, but once contacts the coin C being conveyed at a high speed by the intermediate roller 12. It will be. Therefore, the conveyor belt 8 is not worn by the slip load when the coin C is received due to the difference in the conveyance speed with the feeding roller 11. In the figure, the width adjusting guide 35 is not shown, but according to the modification of the embodiment, the slide portion 35-2 of the width adjusting guide 35 need not be provided.

以上実施の形態によれば、低速で回転して硬貨Cを繰り出す繰出ローラ11と、高速で回転し硬貨Cを入金搬送路5へ搬送する搬送ベルト8との間に、繰出ローラ11によって繰り出された硬貨Cを受取る中間ローラ12を配置し、中間ローラ12を搬送ベルト8と同様に高速で回転し、硬貨Cを先に中間ローラ12に当接させ、次に搬送ベルト8当接させて搬送するようにしたので、搬送ベルト8が繰出ローラ11との搬送速度差による硬貨Cの受取り時のスリップ負荷で磨耗するようなことがなくなる。   According to the above embodiment, the feeding roller 11 is fed between the feeding roller 11 that rotates at a low speed and feeds the coin C and the conveying belt 8 that rotates at a high speed and conveys the coin C to the deposit conveyance path 5. The intermediate roller 12 for receiving the coin C is arranged, the intermediate roller 12 is rotated at a high speed like the conveyor belt 8, and the coin C is first brought into contact with the intermediate roller 12, and then brought into contact with the conveyor belt 8 and conveyed. As a result, the conveyor belt 8 is not worn by a slip load when the coin C is received due to a difference in the conveyance speed from the feeding roller 11.

前述の説明において、硬貨繰出部10から繰り出された硬貨Cを、硬貨繰出手段としての繰出ローラ11によって繰り出して、中間ローラ12に受け渡す例を説明したが、これに限らない。即ち、中間ローラ12は、硬貨繰出手段としての硬貨繰出部10から直接受取る構成であっても本発明を適用可能である。   In the above description, the example has been described in which the coin C fed from the coin feeding unit 10 is fed by the feeding roller 11 as the coin feeding means and delivered to the intermediate roller 12, but is not limited thereto. That is, the present invention can be applied even if the intermediate roller 12 is configured to receive directly from the coin feeding unit 10 as a coin feeding means.
