If the coin storage and feeding unit 71 has not performed the coin feeding process at the time when the consent operation is input to the operation unit after the deposit processing, the control unit 15 quantitatively displays the stored coins of the deposit storage unit 62. , It is determined whether or not the coin can be stored in the coin storage feeding unit 71. If the stored coins of the deposit storage unit 62 can be stored in the coin storage and feeding unit 71, the control unit 15 stores the coins from the deposit storage unit 62 into the coin storage and feeding unit 71 in the classified state. If the stored coins in the deposit storage unit 62 cannot be stored in the coin storage and feeding unit 71, the control unit 15 stores the coins from the deposit storage unit 62 in the coin storage unit 64 in the classified state.
「入金返却処理」
入金処理後、操作部にキャンセル操作が入力されると、制御部１５は、入金貯留部６２の硬貨を、その分類状態のままで硬貨返却部６５に収納する。硬貨返却部６５は、装置本体４１から取り外されて、収納していた硬貨が外部に取り出される。なお、混合状態のままで硬貨返却部６５に収納するようにしても良い。
"Payment return processing"
When a cancel operation is input to the operation unit after the deposit process, the control unit 15 stores the coins of the deposit storage unit 62 in the coin return unit 65 in the classified state. The coin return unit 65 is removed from the device main body 41, and the stored coins are taken out to the outside. The coins may be stored in the coin return unit 65 in the mixed state.
「自動包装処理」
制御部１５は、硬貨収納繰出部７１に、硬貨量がニアフル値を超えた金種の硬貨があると、この金種の硬貨を硬貨収納繰出部７１から棒金処理部１２に向け繰り出す繰出処理を行って、硬貨収納繰出部７１の硬貨量を減らす。このとき、硬貨収納繰出部７１から包装単位枚数或いはその倍数分の枚数を繰り出すようにする。そして、硬貨収納繰出部７１から繰り出された硬貨を棒金処理部１２で包装する。
"Automatic packaging"
When the coin storage and feeding unit 71 contains coins of a denomination whose coin amount exceeds the near full value, the control unit 15 pays out the coins of this denomination from the coin storage and feeding unit 71 to the coin processing unit 12. To reduce the amount of coins in the coin storage and feeding unit 71. At this time, the number of packaging units or the number of multiples thereof is fed out from the coin storage feeding unit 71. Then, the coins drawn out from the coin storage feeding section 71 are wrapped in the coin-roll processing section 12.
即ち、包装部９１において、硬貨処理部１１から受け入れた硬貨を硬貨識別計数部１０１で計数して包装単位枚数（５０枚）の硬貨を硬貨集積包装部１０２に繰り出し、硬貨集積包装部１０２が、このように繰り出された包装単位枚数の硬貨を集積させて、その周囲に包装紙を巻き回し包装紙を両側を加締めて棒金Ｂとする。即ち、包装部９１は、硬貨収納繰出部７１から繰出処理により繰り出された硬貨を集積させて包装する。
That is, in the packaging unit 91, the coins received from the coin processing unit 11 are counted by the coin identification counting unit 101, and the coins of the number of packaging units (50 coins) are delivered to the coin accumulation packaging unit 102, and the coin accumulation packaging unit 102 receives the coins. The coins of the number of wrapping units drawn out in this way are accumulated, the wrapping paper is wound around the coins, and the wrapping paper is crimped on both sides to form a bar B. That is, the packaging unit 91 collects and wraps the coins that have been unwound from the coin storage and feeding unit 71 by the feeding process.
そして、このように硬貨集積包装部１０２で作製された棒金Ｂを、棒金振分搬送部１０３、棒金出金部９３の棒金搬送リフト１１１及び棒金収納繰出部９２の棒金受入搬送部１２１で搬送して棒金収納部１２３に金種別に収納させる。ここで、棒金収納部１２３の対応金種の棒金Ｂが満杯である場合、硬貨集積包装部１０２で作製された棒金Ｂを、棒金振分搬送部１０３及び棒金搬送リフト１１１で棒金一括収納部１１４に収納する。
Then, the Climbing Gold B produced by the coin collection and packaging unit 102 is used to receive the Climbing Gold distribution transport unit 103, the Climbing Gold withdrawal unit 93, and the Climbing Gold storage and delivery unit 92. It is transported by the transport unit 121 and stored in the bar metal storage unit 123 by denomination. Here, when the Climbing Gold B of the corresponding denomination of the Climbing Gold Storage Unit 123 is full, the Climbing Gold B produced by the Coin Accumulation and Packaging Unit 102 is used by the Climbing Gold Sorting Transport Unit 103 and the Climbing Gold Transport Lift 111. It is stored in the bar metal batch storage unit 114.
硬貨収納繰出部７１に、硬貨量がニアフル値を超えた金種が複数ある場合、制御部１５は、何れか一金種について繰出処理を開始したら、繰り出した全ての硬貨が、硬貨集積包装部１０２に送り込まれて包装されるまで待機して、次の金種について繰出処理を開始し、この金種について繰り出した全ての硬貨が、硬貨集積包装部１０２に送り込まれて包装されたら、次の金種について繰出処理を開始するということを繰り返して、一金種ずつ包装する。
When there are a plurality of denominations in the coin storage and feeding unit 71 whose coin amount exceeds the near full value, when the control unit 15 starts the feeding process for any one denomination, all the coins that have been paid out are collected and packaged. Wait until it is sent to 102 and packaged, the feeding process is started for the next denomination, and when all the coins delivered for this denomination are sent to the coin collection and packaging unit 102 and packaged, the next The denominations are packaged one by one by repeating the process of starting the feeding process.
そして、硬貨収納繰出部７１の全金種の硬貨量がニアフル値を所定値を超えて下回る状態となり、硬貨収納繰出部７１から繰り出された硬貨が全て棒金Ｂとなって棒金収納部１２３或いは棒金一括収納部１１４に収納されると、制御部１５は、自動包装処理を終了する。
Then, the amount of coins of all denominations of the coin storage and feeding unit 71 becomes lower than the near full value by more than a predetermined value, and all the coins paid out from the coin storage and feeding unit 71 become the coin-roll B and the coin-roll storage unit 123. Alternatively, when the coins are stored in the coin-roll storage unit 114, the control unit 15 ends the automatic packaging process.
自動包装処理としては、上記のように、硬貨収納繰出部７１の硬貨量が包装基準値よりも大きくなった場合に行われる処理以外に、棒金処理部１２の棒金Ｂの収納量（在高）に応じて、硬貨収納繰出部７１から硬貨を繰り出し棒金処理部１２に搬送して棒金Ｂを作製する処理もある。
As the automatic packaging process, in addition to the process performed when the coin amount of the coin storage feeding unit 71 becomes larger than the packaging standard value as described above, the storage amount of the coin B of the coin-roll processing unit 12 (existing). Depending on the high), there is also a process of transporting coins from the coin storage feeding unit 71 to the paying coin processing unit 12 to produce the coin B.
ここで、硬貨処理装置１０は、自動包装処理の実行中であって、硬貨収納繰出部７１から硬貨を繰り出す繰出処理中であっても、これと並行して、上記した入金処理及び入金収納処理が可能となっている。その際に、制御部１５は、入金貯留部６２の硬貨を硬貨収納部６４に収納する。
Here, even if the coin processing device 10 is executing the automatic packaging process and is in the process of paying out coins from the coin storage feeding unit 71, the above-mentioned deposit processing and deposit storage processing are performed in parallel with the coin processing device 10. Is possible. At that time, the control unit 15 stores the coins of the deposit storage unit 62 in the coin storage unit 64.
「硬貨出金処理」
図示略の操作部に出金させる硬貨の金種別の枚数を含む出金処理操作が入力されると、制御部１５は、硬貨収納繰出部７１の対応する金種の硬貨を繰り出す繰出処理を行って硬貨出金部７６に搬送する。
"Coin withdrawal processing"
When a withdrawal processing operation including the number of coins of each denomination to be withdrawn is input to the operation unit (not shown), the control unit 15 performs a payout process of paying out coins of the corresponding denomination of the coin storage / payout unit 71. And convey it to the coin withdrawal unit 76.
ここで、硬貨処理装置１０は、この硬貨出金処理の実行中であって、硬貨収納繰出部７１から硬貨を繰り出す繰出処理中であっても、これと並行して、上記した入金処理及び入金収納処理が可能となっている。その際に、制御部１５は、入金貯留部６２の硬貨を硬貨収納部６４に収納する。
Here, even if the coin processing device 10 is executing the coin withdrawal process and is in the process of paying out coins from the coin storage and payout unit 71, the above-mentioned deposit process and deposit are performed in parallel with this. Storage processing is possible. At that time, the control unit 15 stores the coins of the deposit storage unit 62 in the coin storage unit 64.
次に、棒金収納繰出部９２について更に説明する。

棒金搬送リフト１１１から繰り出される棒金Ｂは、その中心軸線を、棒金受入搬送部１２１の棒金搬送方向とは直交する水平方向に沿わせており、この姿勢のまま、閉状態にある一対の運搬部材１５１，１５２のうちの運搬部材１５１の受板部１８３と、中間支持部材１４２の上部案内板部１６２との間に繰り出されることになる。棒金搬送リフト１１１から繰り出された棒金Ｂは、一方の運搬部材１５１の受板部１８３及び底板部１８２の傾斜で他方の運搬部材１５２の方向に転がる。このように転がる棒金Ｂは、中間支持部材１４２の規制板部１６３に当接して、それ以上の棒金搬送リフト１１１とは反対側への移動が規制される。このように運搬部１３２に放出された棒金Ｂは、最終的に、閉状態にある一対の運搬部材１５１，１５２の底板部１８２，１９２の傾斜でこれらの相互近接側に跨がって支持され、その際に、棒金受入搬送部１２１の棒金搬送方向に対し直交する水平方向に中心軸線を沿わせて支持される。運搬部１３２は、このように棒金Ｂを支持した状態で図示略の運搬駆動部により駆動されてガイドレール１３１に沿って移動して、棒金Ｂを運搬する。
The Climbing Gold B delivered from the Climbing Gold Transport Lift 111 has its central axis along the horizontal direction orthogonal to the Climbing Gold Transport Direction of the Climbing Gold Receiving and Transporting Unit 121, and is in a closed state in this posture. Of the pair of transport members 151 and 152, the receiving plate portion 183 of the transport member 151 and the upper guide plate portion 162 of the intermediate support member 142 are fed out. The Climbing Gold B unwound from the Climbing Gold Transport Lift 111 rolls in the direction of the other transport member 152 at the inclination of the receiving plate portion 183 and the bottom plate portion 182 of one transport member 151. The rolling bar B abuts on the restricting plate portion 163 of the intermediate support member 142, and further movement to the side opposite to the bar metal transport lift 111 is restricted. The Climbing Gold B released to the transport unit 132 in this way is finally supported by the inclination of the bottom plate portions 182 and 192 of the pair of transport members 151 and 152 in the closed state so as to straddle the mutual close sides thereof. At that time, the coin-roll receiving and transporting unit 121 is supported along the central axis in the horizontal direction orthogonal to the coin-roll transport direction. The transport unit 132 is driven by a transport drive unit (not shown) with the rod B supported in this way and moves along the guide rail 131 to transport the coin B.
更に、運搬部１３２は、棒金搬送リフト１１１側の一方の運搬部材１５１の底板部１８２に取り付けられる入力部材２０１を有している。入力部材２０１は、一方の運搬部材１５１の底板部１８２及び受板部１８３の下面に固定されて下方に延出する延出部材２０２と、延出部材２０２の下部の棒金搬送リフト１１１とは反対側に軸部２０３において支持される入力ローラ２０４とを有している。入力ローラ２０４は、軸部２０３が棒金受入搬送部１２１の棒金搬送方向とは直交する水平方向に中心軸線を沿わせており、この中心軸線を中心に回転する。
Further, the transport unit 132 has an input member 201 attached to the bottom plate portion 182 of one transport member 151 on the bar metal transport lift 111 side. The input member 201 is fixed to the lower surface of the bottom plate portion 182 and the receiving plate portion 183 of one of the transport members 151 and extends downward, and the extension member 202 and the bar metal transport lift 111 below the extension member 202 are It has an input roller 204 supported by the shaft portion 203 on the opposite side. The input roller 204 has a shaft portion 203 along the central axis in a horizontal direction orthogonal to the bar metal transport direction of the bar metal receiving and transporting unit 121, and rotates around the central axis.
運搬部１３２は、棒金Ｂの搬送中、棒金搬送方向に沿って棒金搬送リフト１１１から離れる方向に移動する摺動部材１４１に対して、入力部材２０１の入力ローラ２０４の移動が停止させられると、入力部材２０１が取り付けられた一方の運搬部材１５１が、支持軸１４４を中心に歯車１４７と一体に回転し、歯車１４７に噛み合う歯車１４８が他方の運搬部材１５２と一体に回転して、一対の運搬部材１５１，１５２が底板部１８２，１９２を離す。これにより、運搬部１３２は、棒金Ｂを下方に落下させる。このときも棒金Ｂは、棒金受入搬送部１２１の棒金搬送方向に対し直交する水平方向に中心軸線を沿わせた姿勢で落下する。
During the transfer of the bar B, the transport unit 132 stops the movement of the input roller 204 of the input member 201 with respect to the sliding member 141 that moves away from the bar transfer lift 111 along the bar transport direction. Then, one transport member 151 to which the input member 201 is attached rotates integrally with the gear 147 about the support shaft 144, and the gear 148 meshing with the gear 147 rotates integrally with the other transport member 152. A pair of transport members 151 and 152 separate the bottom plate portions 182 and 192. As a result, the transport unit 132 drops the bar B downward. Also at this time, the Climbing Gold B falls in a posture along the central axis in the horizontal direction orthogonal to the Climbing Gold transport direction of the Climbing Gold receiving and transporting unit 121.

The pair of wall portions 227 and 228 are spaced apart from each other by a length wider than the axial length of the bar B, and the pair of wall portions 225 and 226 carry the bar B in the bar transport direction of the bar receiving and transporting section 121. There is an interval that allows multiple rows to be placed in. As a result, as shown in FIG. 5, a plurality of rows, specifically three rows, of the Climbing Gold B are stored in the peripheral wall portion 221 in the direction of the Climbing Gold transporting portion 121. In the peripheral wall portion 221, the inner space extends in the vertical direction, and the rods B are stacked and stored in a plurality of stages in the vertical direction in a state where adjacent objects are in contact with each other in the radial direction. Therefore, the Climbing Gold B is stored in the storage unit 211 in a plurality of rows and a plurality of stages.
支持部２２２は、鉛直方向の位置が合い、最も棒金搬送リフト１１１側（図５における右側）の棒金Ｂを支持する支持ピン２３１及び支持ピン２３２と、支持ピン２３２とで、棒金受入搬送部１２１の棒金搬送方向中間の棒金Ｂを支持する支持ピン２３３と、支持ピン２３３とで、棒金受入搬送部１２１の最も棒金搬送リフト１１１とは反対側（図５における左側）の棒金Ｂを支持する支持ピン２３４とを有している。支持ピン２３１及び支持ピン２３２は鉛直方向の位置を合わせている。支持ピン２３２〜２３４は、同一直線上に並んでおり、この直線が棒金搬送リフト１１１から離れるほど下側に位置するように傾斜している。

一対の支持付勢部材２６４，２６５のうちの一方の支持付勢部材２６４は、スタッド２８４とクランプレバー２６１の係合穴２９６とに係合されており、このクランプレバー２６１を支持部材２６３に対し付勢する。他方の支持付勢部材２６５は、スタッド２８５とクランプレバー２６２の係合穴２９６とに係合されており、このクランプレバー２６２を支持部材２６３に対し付勢する。
One of the support urging members 264 and 265 of the pair of support urging members 264 and 265 is engaged with the stud 284 and the engagement hole 296 of the clamp lever 261, and the clamp lever 261 is attached to the support member 263. Clamp. The other support urging member 265 is engaged with the stud 285 and the engagement hole 296 of the clamp lever 262, and urges the clamp lever 262 with respect to the support member 263.
支持付勢部材２６４は、クランプレバー２６１が、図６に示すようにベース部２９１を鉛直方向に沿わせ、壁部２２７に形成されたスリット２６８を介して凸部２９２及び解除部２９４を収納部２１１内に突出させた進入状態を維持するように付勢することになる。また、支持付勢部材２６４は、この進入状態からクランプレバー２６１が、凸部２９２及び解除部２９４を収納部２１１から退避させる方向に所定の切替位置を越えて回動させられると、クランプレバー２６１を更に回動させて、凸部２９２及び解除部２９４を収納部２１１から退避させた退避状態に維持するように付勢する。また、支持付勢部材２６４は、この退避状態からクランプレバー２６１が、凸部２９２及び解除部２９４を収納部２１１に進入させる方向に切替位置を越えて回動させられると、クランプレバー２６１を更に回動させて、凸部２９２及び解除部２９４を収納部２１１に進入させた進入状態に維持するように付勢する。即ち、支持付勢部材２６４は、クランプレバー２６１に、進入状態と退避状態とを切替位置を境に切り替える所謂スナップアクションを行わせる。
In the support urging member 264, the clamp lever 261 aligns the base portion 291 in the vertical direction as shown in FIG. 6, and stores the convex portion 292 and the release portion 294 via the slit 268 formed in the wall portion 227. It will be urged to maintain the approaching state protruding into 211. Further, in the support urging member 264, when the clamp lever 261 is rotated from this approaching state in the direction of retracting the convex portion 292 and the release portion 294 from the storage portion 211 beyond a predetermined switching position, the clamp lever 261 Is further rotated to urge the convex portion 292 and the release portion 294 to be retracted from the storage portion 211 and maintained in the retracted state. Further, when the clamp lever 261 is rotated beyond the switching position in the direction in which the convex portion 292 and the release portion 294 enter the storage portion 211 from this retracted state, the support urging member 264 further shifts the clamp lever 261. It is rotated to urge the convex portion 292 and the release portion 294 to be maintained in the approaching state in which they have entered the storage portion 211. That is, the support urging member 264 causes the clamp lever 261 to perform a so-called snap action of switching between the approaching state and the retracting state with the switching position as a boundary.
支持付勢部材２６５は、クランプレバー２６２が、ベース部２９１を鉛直方向に沿わせ、壁部２２８に形成されたスリット２６９を介して凸部２９２及び解除部２９４を収納部２１１内に突出させた進入状態を維持するように付勢することになる。また、支持付勢部材２６５は、この進入状態からクランプレバー２６２が、凸部２９２及び解除部２９４を収納部２１１から退避させる方向に所定の切替位置を越えて回動させられると、クランプレバー２６２を更に回動させて、凸部２９２及び解除部２９４を収納部２１１から退避させた退避状態に維持するように付勢する。また、支持付勢部材２６５は、この退避状態からクランプレバー２６２が、凸部２９２及び解除部２９４を収納部２１１に進入させる方向に切替位置を越えて回動させられると、クランプレバー２６２を更に回動させて、凸部２９２及び解除部２９４を収納部２１１に進入させた進入状態に維持するように付勢する。即ち、支持付勢部材２６５も、クランプレバー２６２に、進入状態と退避状態とを切替位置を境に切り替える所謂スナップアクションを行わせる。
In the support urging member 265, the clamp lever 262 has the base portion 291 along the vertical direction, and the convex portion 292 and the release portion 294 are projected into the storage portion 211 through the slit 269 formed in the wall portion 228. It will be urged to maintain the approach state. Further, when the clamp lever 262 is rotated from this approaching state in the direction of retracting the convex portion 292 and the release portion 294 from the storage portion 211, the support urging member 265 is rotated beyond a predetermined switching position. Is further rotated to urge the convex portion 292 and the release portion 294 to be retracted from the storage portion 211 and maintained in the retracted state. Further, when the clamp lever 262 is rotated beyond the switching position in the direction in which the convex portion 292 and the release portion 294 enter the storage portion 211 from this retracted state, the support urging member 265 further moves the clamp lever 262. It is rotated to urge the convex portion 292 and the release portion 294 to be maintained in the approaching state in which they have entered the storage portion 211. That is, the support urging member 265 also causes the clamp lever 262 to perform a so-called snap action of switching between the approaching state and the retracting state at the switching position.
昇降搬送部２４２は、図７に示すように、壁部２２７に連結部材３０１を介して固定される当接ピン３０２と、壁部２２８に連結部材３０３を介して固定される当接ピン３０４とを有している。これら当接ピン３０２，３０４は、収納部２１１の上部位置に配置されており、互いに鉛直方向の位置を合わせている。昇降駆動部２６６の駆動で、図９に示すように、支持部材２６３が退避状態にあるクランプレバー２６１，２６２と共に収納部２１１の上部から上端部に向け移動して最上位置に位置すると、当接ピン３０４が、図１０に示すように、退避状態にあるクランプレバー２６２の背面突出部２９３に当接する。すると、クランプレバー２６２はその上降の力で、当接ピン３０４から反力を受けて、切替位置を越えて回動させられる。これにより、支持付勢部材２６５の付勢力でクランプレバー２６２が進入状態に切り替わる。これと並行して、クランプレバー２６１も、背面突出部２９３において、当接ピン３０２に当接し、切替位置を越えて回動させられる。これにより、支持付勢部材２６４の付勢力でクランプレバー２６１も進入状態に切り替わる。クランプレバー２６１，２６２は鉛直方向の位置を合わせており、当接ピン３０２，３０４も鉛直方向の位置を合わせているため、クランプレバー２６１，２６２は、退避状態から略同時に進入状態に切り替わる。
As shown in FIG. 7, the elevating and lowering transport unit 242 includes a contact pin 302 fixed to the wall portion 227 via the connecting member 301 and a contact pin 304 fixed to the wall portion 228 via the connecting member 303. have. These contact pins 302 and 304 are arranged at the upper positions of the accommodating portion 211, and are aligned vertically with each other. When the support member 263 moves from the upper part to the upper end part of the storage part 211 together with the clamp levers 261,262 in the retracted state and is located at the uppermost position by the drive of the elevating drive part 266, as shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 10, the pin 304 comes into contact with the back protruding portion 293 of the clamp lever 262 in the retracted state. Then, the clamp lever 262 receives a reaction force from the abutting pin 304 by the descending force thereof, and is rotated beyond the switching position. As a result, the clamp lever 262 is switched to the approaching state by the urging force of the support urging member 265. In parallel with this, the clamp lever 261 also comes into contact with the contact pin 302 at the back protrusion 293 and is rotated beyond the switching position. As a result, the clamp lever 261 is also switched to the approaching state by the urging force of the support urging member 264. Since the clamp levers 261,262 are aligned in the vertical direction and the contact pins 302 and 304 are also aligned in the vertical direction, the clamp levers 261,262 are switched from the retracted state to the approaching state substantially at the same time.
以上のような退避状態から進入状態への切り替え時に、図６に示すように、受取部２４１に棒金Ｂがあると、クランプレバー２６１，２６２は、互いの凸部２９２でこの棒金Ｂをその軸線方向両側、即ち、その長手方向から両側から挟持する。棒金Ｂは、軸線方向の両端に包装紙の余長部分を内側に丸めて加締めた円形の加締部Ｋが形成されており、クランプレバー２６２の凸部２９２は、一方の加締部Ｋの内側に入り込んで一端部の硬貨Ｃに当接し、クランプレバー２６１の凸部２９２は、他方の加締部Ｋの内側に入り込んで他端部の硬貨Ｃに当接する。進入状態にあるクランプレバー２６１，２６２は、それぞれの凸部２９２が一本の棒金Ｂの両端の加締部Ｋ内に入り込むため、棒金Ｂは、凸部２９２を越える径方向移動が規制されることになり、棒金Ｂが自重により下がっても、クランプレバー２６１，２６２のそれぞれの凸部２９２に加締部Ｋの上部が下側から支持される。
When switching from the retracted state to the approaching state as described above, as shown in FIG. 6, if the receiving portion 241 has a bar B, the clamp levers 261,262 use the convex portions 292 of each other to hold the bar B. It is sandwiched from both sides in the axial direction, that is, from both sides in the longitudinal direction. The bar B is formed with circular crimping portions K formed by curling the extra length portion of the wrapping paper inward at both ends in the axial direction, and the convex portion 292 of the clamp lever 262 is one crimping portion. It enters the inside of K and abuts on the coin C at one end, and the convex portion 292 of the clamp lever 261 enters the inside of the other crimping portion K and abuts on the coin C at the other end. In the clamp levers 261,262 in the approaching state, each convex portion 292 enters the crimping portions K at both ends of one bar B, so that the bar B is restricted from moving in the radial direction beyond the convex portion 292. Even if the bar B is lowered by its own weight, the upper portion of the crimping portion K is supported from the lower side by the respective convex portions 292 of the clamp levers 261,262.
このように進入状態にあるクランプレバー２６１，２６２で棒金Ｂを把持した状態で、昇降駆動部２６６の駆動で、支持部材２６３がクランプレバー２６１，２６２と共に下降して棒金Ｂを受取部２４１から下降させると、クランプレバー２６１，２６２で下降させられる棒金Ｂは、受取部２４１の受取部材２５２を受取付勢部材２５３の付勢力に抗して回動させながら、受取部材２５２と受取構成部２５１との間を通過する。即ち、受取部２４１よりも下方に移動させられる。
With the clamp levers 261,262 in the approaching state holding the bar B, the support member 263 descends together with the clamp levers 261,262 by the drive of the elevating drive unit 266 to receive the bar B 241. Climbing gold B, which is lowered by the clamp levers 261 and 262, rotates the receiving member 252 of the receiving portion 241 against the urging force of the receiving mounting member 253, and is configured to receive the receiving member 252 and the receiving member 252. It passes between the part 251 and the part 251. That is, it is moved below the receiving unit 241.
図１１に示すように、更に、昇降駆動部２６６の駆動で、支持部材２６３がクランプレバー２６１，２６２と共に下降すると、クランプレバー２６１，２６２は、収納部２１１に既に収納されている棒金Ｂの最も壁部２２５側の上端のものの軸線方向の両端部に面取部２９５が当接し、図１２に示すように、クランプレバー２６１，２６２の下降の力で、この棒金Ｂから解除部２９４が反力を受けて、進入状態から切替位置を越えて回動する。これにより、支持付勢部材２６４，２６５の付勢力でクランプレバー２６１，２６２が退避状態に切り替わる。ここで、クランプレバー２６１，２６２を回動させる棒金Ｂも、軸線方向の両端部の鉛直方向の位置を合わせて収納部２１１に収納されているため、クランプレバー２６１，２６２は、進入状態から略同時に退避状態に切り替わる。その結果、クランプレバー２６１，２６２はそれぞれの凸部２９２が棒金Ｂの加締部Ｋから離れて棒金Ｂを放出する。
As shown in FIG. 11, when the support member 263 is further lowered together with the clamp levers 261,262 by driving the elevating drive unit 266, the clamp levers 261,262 are of the bar metal B already stored in the storage unit 211. The chamfered portions 295 abut on both ends in the axial direction of the upper end of the wall portion 225 side, and as shown in FIG. 12, the release portion 294 is released from the bar metal B by the downward force of the clamp levers 261,262. In response to the reaction force, it rotates beyond the switching position from the approaching state. As a result, the clamp levers 261,262 are switched to the retracted state by the urging force of the support urging members 264 and 265. Here, since the bar B that rotates the clamp levers 261,262 is also stored in the storage portion 211 with the positions of both ends in the axial direction aligned in the vertical direction, the clamp levers 261,262 can be moved from the approached state. It switches to the retracted state almost at the same time. As a result, the clamp levers 261,262 have their respective convex portions 292 separated from the crimping portion K of the bar B to release the bar B.
以上のようにして、クランプレバー２６１，２６２は、棒金Ｂを把持及び放出する。棒金Ｂを収納する際に、支持部材２６３は、既に収納されている棒金Ｂの有無にかかわらず、常に最下位置まで下降するようになっている。
As described above, the clamp levers 261,262 grip and release the bar B. When the Climbing Gold B is stored, the support member 263 is always lowered to the lowest position regardless of the presence or absence of the Climbing Gold B already stored.
図１３に示すように、収納部２１１のスリット２６８の下端位置には、内部に棒金Ｂが収納されていない状態で、支持部材２６３が最下位置まで下降すると、支持部材２６３と共に下降するクランプレバー２６１の面取部２９５に当接し、クランプレバー２６１の解除部２９４を、クランプレバー２６１の下降の力の反力で押して、進入状態にあるクランプレバー２６１を切替位置を越えて回動させる突起状の当接部３１１が形成されている。図８，図１４に示すように、収納部２１１のスリット２６９の下端位置にも、内部に棒金Ｂが収納されていない状態で、支持部材２６３が最下位置まで下降すると、支持部材２６３と共に下降するクランプレバー２６２の面取部２９５に当接し、クランプレバー２６２の解除部２９４を、クランプレバー２６２の下降の力の反力で押して、進入状態にあるクランプレバー２６２を切替位置を越えて回動させる突起状の当接部３１２が形成されている。当接部３１１，３１２も鉛直方向の位置を合わせており、これにより、当接部３１１，３１２に当接したクランプレバー２６１，２６２は、支持付勢部材２６４，２６５の付勢力で略同時に退避状態に切り替わる。その結果、クランプレバー２６１，２６２はそれぞれの凸部２９２が棒金Ｂの加締部Ｋから離れて棒金Ｂを放出する。
As shown in FIG. 13, at the lower end position of the slit 268 of the storage portion 211, when the support member 263 is lowered to the lowest position in a state where the bar metal B is not stored inside, the clamp is lowered together with the support member 263. A protrusion that comes into contact with the chamfered portion 295 of the lever 261 and pushes the release portion 294 of the clamp lever 261 with the reaction force of the descending force of the clamp lever 261 to rotate the clamp lever 261 in the approaching state beyond the switching position. A shaped contact portion 311 is formed. As shown in FIGS. 8 and 14, when the support member 263 is lowered to the lowest position in the state where the bar metal B is not stored inside at the lower end position of the slit 269 of the storage portion 211, the support member 263 and the support member 263 are combined. The clamp lever 262 is brought into contact with the chamfered portion 295 of the descending clamp lever 262, and the release portion 294 of the clamp lever 262 is pushed by the reaction force of the descending force of the clamp lever 262 to rotate the clamp lever 262 in the approaching state beyond the switching position. A protruding contact portion 312 to be moved is formed. The abutting portions 311, 312 are also aligned in the vertical direction, so that the clamp levers 261,262 that abut on the abutting portions 311, 312 are retracted substantially at the same time by the urging force of the support urging members 264 and 265. Switch to the state. As a result, the clamp levers 261,262 have their respective convex portions 292 separated from the crimping portion K of the bar B to release the bar B.
よって、クランプレバー２６１，２６２のそれぞれの面取部２９５を含む解除部２９４は、収納部２１１に収納されている棒金Ｂ又は収納部２１１に形成された当接部３１１，３１２に接触するとクランプレバー２６１，２６２のそれぞれの凸部２９２を棒金Ｂの両端から離間させる。
Therefore, when the release portion 294 including the chamfered portions 295 of the clamp levers 261, 262 comes into contact with the bar metal B stored in the storage portion 211 or the contact portions 311, 312 formed in the storage portion 211, the clamp levers 261,262 are clamped. The convex portions 292 of the levers 261,262 are separated from both ends of the bar B.
なお、支持部材２６３は、このように当接部３１１，３１２でクランプレバー２６１，２６２を退避状態にできる最下位置からクランプレバー２６１，２６２を進入状態にすることのない位置までの間に基本位置が設定されることになり、具体的には、図６に示すようにクランプレバー２６１，２６２を進入状態にする最上位置よりも１段下がった図８，図９に示す位置が基本位置となっている。支持部材２６３は、棒金Ｂの収納時に一旦最下位置まで移動した後、次の棒金Ｂの収納までの間は、この基本位置で待機する。動作開始時において、クランプレバー２６１，２６２が開いていない可能性がある場合、一旦、支持部材２６３を最下位置まで下降させてクランプレバー２６１，２６２を開かせてから、基本位置に戻す。
The support member 263 is basically formed between the lowest position where the clamp levers 261,262 can be retracted at the contact portions 311, 312 and the position where the clamp levers 261,262 are not brought into the approached state. The position will be set. Specifically, as shown in FIG. 6, the positions shown in FIGS. 8 and 9 which are one step lower than the uppermost position where the clamp levers 261,262 are in the approaching state are the basic positions. It has become. The support member 263 once moves to the lowest position when the bar B is stored, and then stands by at this basic position until the next bar B is stored. If there is a possibility that the clamp levers 261,262 are not open at the start of operation, the support member 263 is once lowered to the lowest position to open the clamp levers 261,262, and then returned to the basic position.
図１１に示すように、クランプレバー２６１，２６２は、最も壁部２２５側（最も棒金搬送リフト１１１側）の列の棒金Ｂにほぼ沿って移動し、図１２に示すように、この最も壁部２２５側の列の最上部の棒金Ｂに接触すると、棒金Ｂを放出することになる。図５に示すように、このとき、最も壁部２２５側の列の最上部の棒金Ｂよりも１段上に棒金Ｂがなければ、放出された棒金Ｂは、壁部２２６に当接するまで、図５中に実線矢印で示すように、下側の棒金Ｂの傾斜で転がる。また、最も壁部２２５側の列の最上部の棒金Ｂよりも１段上に１個の棒金Ｂがあると、この棒金Ｂは下側の棒金Ｂの傾斜で壁部２２６に当接しており、放出された棒金Ｂは、この１個の棒金Ｂに当接するまで、下側の棒金Ｂの傾斜で転がって、この１個の棒金Ｂと同じ段を構成する２つ目の棒金Ｂとなる。また、最も壁部２２５側の列の最上部の棒金Ｂよりも１段上に２個の棒金Ｂがあると、これらは下側の棒金Ｂの傾斜で壁部２２６に当接しており、放出された棒金Ｂは、これら２個の棒金Ｂと同じ段の３つ目の棒金Ｂとなる。
As shown in FIG. 11, the clamp levers 261,262 move substantially along the bar B in the row closest to the wall portion 225 side (most bar transfer lift 111 side), and as shown in FIG. 12, this most When it comes into contact with the top bar B in the row on the wall 225 side, the bar B is released. As shown in FIG. 5, at this time, if there is no bar B one step above the top bar B in the row on the wall portion 225 side, the released bar B hits the wall portion 226. Until it touches, it rolls with the inclination of the lower bar B as shown by the solid arrow in FIG. Further, if there is one Climbing Gold B one step above the Climbing Gold B at the top of the row on the wallmost 225 side, this Climbing Gold B will be attached to the Climbing Gold 226 by the inclination of the lower Climbing Gold B. The abutting and released Climbing Gold B rolls at the inclination of the lower Climbing Gold B until it abuts on this one Climbing Gold B, forming the same stage as this one Climbing Gold B. It becomes the second coin-roll B. Further, if there are two Climbing Golds B one step above the Climbing Gold B at the top of the row on the wallmost 225 side, these will come into contact with the Climbing Gold 226 at the inclination of the Climbing Gold B on the lower side. The released Climbing Gold B becomes the third Climbing Gold B in the same stage as these two Climbing Gold B.
ここで、クランプレバー２６１，２６２は、最も壁部２２５側の列の棒金Ｂと、その隣りの列の棒金Ｂとの間位置で、これらの棒金Ｂの何れかに解除部２９４を当接させて棒金Ｂを放出するようにしても、放出された棒金Ｂは、図５中に破線矢印で示すように転がって、上記と同様に収納されることになる。また、これにより、放出された棒金Ｂが壁部２２５と当接して壁部２２６に向けて転がらずに壁部２２５側の列に積み上がることをより確実に防止できる。
Here, the clamp levers 261,262 have a release portion 294 at any of these bar Bs at a position between the bar B in the row closest to the wall portion 225 and the bar B in the row next to it. Even if the bar B is brought into contact with the bar B, the released bar B rolls as shown by the broken line arrow in FIG. 5 and is stored in the same manner as described above. Further, as a result, it is possible to more reliably prevent the released bar B from coming into contact with the wall portion 225 and being piled up in the row on the wall portion 225 side without rolling toward the wall portion 226.
図４に示すように、棒金受入搬送部１２１は、棒金搬送リフト１１１から棒金Ｂを受け取ると、図１５に示すように、この棒金Ｂを把持して、この棒金Ｂの金種用の個別収納繰出部２１５に向かって移動することになるが、これに合わせて、この個別収納繰出部２１５の昇降搬送部２４２が、図８，図９に示すように基本位置にある支持部材２６３を、図７，図１０に示すように最上位置まで上昇させる。
As shown in FIG. 4, when the Climbing Gold receiving and transporting unit 121 receives the Climbing Gold B from the Climbing Gold transport lift 111, it grips the Climbing Gold B and holds the Climbing Gold B as shown in FIG. It will move toward the individual storage feeding section 215 for seeds, and in accordance with this, the elevating transport section 242 of the individual storage feeding section 215 is supported at the basic position as shown in FIGS. 8 and 9. The member 263 is raised to the uppermost position as shown in FIGS. 7 and 10.
そして、この上昇中に、図１６に示すように、支持部材２６３は、支持部材本体２８１において、棒金受入搬送部１２１の運搬部１３２の入力部材２０１に当接して、図１７に示すように、運搬部材１５１，１５２を開状態として、運搬部１３２の棒金Ｂを、この個別収納繰出部２１５の受取部２４１に受け渡し、その後、図７，図１０に示すように更に最上位置まで上昇してクランプレバー２６１，２６２を当接ピン３０２，３０４に当接させて、図６に示すようにクランプレバー２６１，２６２を進入状態にして受取部２４１の棒金Ｂを把持させる。
Then, during this ascent, as shown in FIG. 16, the support member 263 abuts on the input member 201 of the transport unit 132 of the bar metal receiving and transporting unit 121 in the support member main body 281 and as shown in FIG. With the transport members 151 and 152 in the open state, the bar B of the transport unit 132 is delivered to the receiving unit 241 of the individual storage feeding unit 215, and then ascended to the uppermost position as shown in FIGS. 7 and 10. The clamp levers 261,262 are brought into contact with the abutting pins 302 and 304, and as shown in FIG. 6, the clamp levers 261,262 are brought into the approaching state to grip the bar B of the receiving portion 241.
即ち、個別収納繰出部２１５の支持部材２６３は、基本位置からの一回の上昇で、棒金受入搬送部１２１の運搬部材１５１，１５２を開状態とした後、クランプレバー２６１，２６２を進入状態にする。その際に、この個別収納繰出部２１５よりも棒金搬送リフト１１１側にある個別収納繰出部２１５は、図１８に示すように、支持部材２６３が基本位置にあって上昇することはなく、移動する棒金受入搬送部１２１の入力部材２０１を当接させずに通過させる。このように、支持部材２６３の基本位置は、移動する棒金受入搬送部１２１の入力部材２０１に当接しない位置となっている。
That is, the support member 263 of the individual storage feeding portion 215 is in the state of entering the clamp levers 261, 262 after opening the transport members 151 and 152 of the bar metal receiving and transporting portion 121 by raising the support member 263 from the basic position once. To. At that time, as shown in FIG. 18, the individual storage extension portion 215 located on the bar metal transport lift 111 side of the individual storage extension portion 215 does not move because the support member 263 is in the basic position and does not rise. The input member 201 of the Climbing Gold receiving and transporting unit 121 is passed through without abutting. As described above, the basic position of the support member 263 is a position where the support member 263 does not come into contact with the input member 201 of the moving rod receiving and transporting unit 121.
「棒金繰出機構２１３」
図５に示すように、棒金繰出機構２１３は、棒金Ｂを繰り出す繰出部３２１と、繰出部３２１で繰り出される棒金Ｂよりも上段の棒金Ｂを支持する上記した支持部２２２と、支持部２２２で支持された棒金Ｂを繰出部３２１に搬送する搬送部３２２とを有している。

進退駆動部３４１は、回転板３４６の長手方向の一端部と支持板３４２とを連結させる連結ピン３５１と、回転板３４６の長手方向の他端部に連結される連結ピン３５２と、連結ピン３５２に一端側が連結されて支持板３４３側に延出するリンク板３５３と、リンク板３５３の他端側を支持板３４３に連結させる連結ピン３５４とを有している。
The advancing / retreating drive unit 341 includes a connecting pin 351 that connects one end of the rotating plate 346 in the longitudinal direction and a support plate 342, a connecting pin 352 that is connected to the other end of the rotating plate 346 in the longitudinal direction, and a connecting pin 352. It has a link plate 353 having one end side connected to the support plate 343 and extending to the support plate 343 side, and a connecting pin 354 connecting the other end side of the link plate 353 to the support plate 343.
進退モータ３４４が第１位置にあるとき、図１９，図２０に示すように、支持板３４２，３４３が近づいた状態にあって、支持板３４２，３４３がそれぞれに取り付けられた支持ピン２３１〜２３４を収納部２１１内に進入させる。これにより、支持部２２２は、支持板３４２，３４３のそれぞれに取り付けられた支持ピン２３１〜２３４が収納部２１１の底部を構成し、収納部２１１内の棒金Ｂを支持する状態になる。
When the advancing / retreating motor 344 is in the first position, as shown in FIGS. 19 and 20, the support plates 342 and 343 are close to each other, and the support pins 342 and 343 are attached to the support pins 231 to 234, respectively. Is entered into the storage unit 211. As a result, in the support portion 222, the support pins 231 to 234 attached to each of the support plates 342 and 343 form the bottom portion of the storage portion 211, and the rod B in the storage portion 211 is supported.
この状態から進退モータ３４４が回転して第２位置に位置すると、図２１，図２２に示すように、支持板３４２，３４３が遠ざかった状態になって、支持板３４２，３４３がそれぞれに取り付けられた支持ピン２３１〜２３４を収納部２１１から退避させる。これにより、支持部２２２は、支持板３４２，３４３のそれぞれに取り付けられた支持ピン２３１〜２３４が、収納部２１１内の棒金Ｂを支持しない状態になる。
When the advance / retreat motor 344 rotates from this state and is positioned at the second position, the support plates 342 and 343 are moved away from each other as shown in FIGS. 21 and 22, and the support plates 342 and 343 are attached to each of them. The support pins 231 to 234 are retracted from the storage portion 211. As a result, the support portion 222 is in a state in which the support pins 231 to 234 attached to the support plates 342 and 343 do not support the Climbing Gold B in the storage portion 211.
図２３〜図２６に示すように、搬送部３２２は、搬送台３６１と、搬送台３６１を昇降させる搬送駆動部３６２とを有している。図２７に示すように、搬送台３６１は、一方向に長いベース体３６５と、ベース体３６５の両端に取り付けられるナット部材３６６，３６７と、ベース体３６５の中央に取り付けられる台部３６８とを有している。図２８に示すように、搬送台３６１は、支持ピン２３１〜２３４で支持された収納部２１１内の最下段の棒金Ｂを台部３６８の支持板部３６９で支持する。支持板部３６９は、支持部２２２が支持する収納部２１１内の最下段の３つの棒金Ｂの並びの傾斜と同様に傾斜している。
As shown in FIGS. 23 to 26, the transport unit 322 includes a transport base 361 and a transport drive unit 362 that raises and lowers the transport base 361. As shown in FIG. 27, the transport base 361 has a base body 365 that is long in one direction, nut members 366 and 367 attached to both ends of the base body 365, and a base portion 368 that is attached to the center of the base body 365. doing. As shown in FIG. 28, the transport table 361 supports the lowermost bar B in the storage portion 211 supported by the support pins 231 to 234 by the support plate portion 369 of the base portion 368. The support plate portion 369 is inclined in the same manner as the inclination of the arrangement of the three lowermost bars B in the storage portion 211 supported by the support portion 222.
図２４，図２６に示すように、搬送駆動部３６２は、壁部２２７の壁部２２８とは反対側に立設されて搬送台３６１のナット部材３６６に螺合されるボールネジ３７１と、ボールネジ３７１に固定されたタイミングプーリ３７２と、壁部２２８の壁部２２７とは反対側に立設されて搬送台３６１のナット部材３６７に螺合されるボールネジ３７３と、ボールネジ３７３に固定されたタイミングプーリ３７４とを有している。図２３，図２５に示すように、搬送駆動部３６２は、壁部２２８の壁部２２７とは反対側に、ボールネジ３７３と並んで設けられたステッピングモータからなる搬送モータ３７５と、搬送モータ３７５の図示略の回転軸に固定されたタイミングプーリ３７７と、タイミングプーリ３７２，３７４，３７７に巻回される無端のタイミングベルト３７８とを有している。ナット部材３６６及びボールネジ３７１はボールネジ機構を構成し、ナット部材３６７及びボールネジ３７３もボールネジ機構を構成している。
As shown in FIGS. 24 and 26, the transport drive unit 362 has a ball screw 371 and a ball screw 371 that are erected on the side opposite to the wall portion 228 of the wall portion 227 and screwed into the nut member 366 of the transport base 361. The timing pulley 372 fixed to the ball screw 373, the ball screw 373 which is erected on the side opposite to the wall part 227 of the wall part 228 and screwed into the nut member 367 of the transport base 361, and the timing pulley 374 fixed to the ball screw 373. And have. As shown in FIGS. 23 and 25, the transport drive unit 362 includes a transport motor 375 composed of a stepping motor provided alongside the ball screw 373 on the side of the wall portion 228 opposite to the wall portion 227, and the transport motor 375. It has a timing pulley 377 fixed to a rotation shaft (not shown), and an endless timing belt 378 wound around the timing pulleys 372, 374, and 377. The nut member 366 and the ball screw 371 form a ball screw mechanism, and the nut member 367 and the ball screw 373 also form a ball screw mechanism.
これにより、搬送モータ３７５が正逆駆動されてその回転軸が回転すると、タイミングプーリ３７７がタイミングベルト３７８及びタイミングプーリ３７２，３７４を回転させることになり、その結果、ボールネジ３７１，３７３が同期して回転する。すると、ボールネジ３７１，３７３にナット部材３６６，３６７を螺合させている搬送台３６１が、図２３，図２４に示すように下降したり、図２５，図２６に示すように上昇したりする。図２８に示すように、搬送台３６１が最も上昇すると、その支持板部３６９が、支持ピン２３１〜２３４で支持された、収納部２１１内の最下段の棒金Ｂを支持する状態となる。また、図５に示すように、搬送台３６１が最も下降すると、その支持板部３６９が、歯付タイミングベルト３３３と上面の位置を揃えることになり、歯付タイミングベルト３３３とで棒金Ｂを支持する状態になる。
As a result, when the transport motor 375 is driven in the forward and reverse directions and its rotating shaft rotates, the timing pulley 377 rotates the timing belt 378 and the timing pulleys 372 and 374, and as a result, the ball screws 371 and 373 synchronize with each other. Rotate. Then, the transport base 361 in which the nut members 366 and 367 are screwed into the ball screws 371 and 373 descends as shown in FIGS. 23 and 24, and rises as shown in FIGS. 25 and 26. As shown in FIG. 28, when the transport table 361 is raised most, the support plate portion 369 is in a state of supporting the lowermost bar metal B in the storage portion 211 supported by the support pins 231 to 234. Further, as shown in FIG. 5, when the transport table 361 is lowered most, the support plate portion 369 aligns the upper surface with the toothed timing belt 333, and the bar metal B is formed by the toothed timing belt 333. It will be in a state of support.
歯付タイミングベルト３３３上には、以下のように、支持部２２２に支持された、収納部２１１内の最下段の３個の棒金Ｂが搬送部３２２で上から搬送されて受け渡されることになるが、その際に、歯付タイミングベルト３３３は、搬送部３２２の支持板部３６９とで３個の棒金Ｂを支持することになる。即ち、最も繰出口３３６側の棒金Ｂとその隣りの棒金Ｂとを歯付タイミングベルト３３３及び支持板部３６９が支持し、最も繰出口３３６とは反対側の棒金Ｂを支持板部３６９だけが支持する。支持板部３６９は、この位置が基本位置となっている。下降する支持板部３６９から棒金Ｂを受け取る際に、図５に示すように、歯付タイミングベルト３３３は、繰出口３３６と最も繰出口３３６側の棒金Ｂとの間と、最も繰出口３３６側の棒金Ｂとその隣りの棒金Ｂとの間と、この棒金Ｂと最も繰出口３３６とは反対側の棒金Ｂとの間と、それぞれ歯３３５を配置する回転位置で棒金Ｂを受け取ることになる。
On the toothed timing belt 333, as shown below, the three lowermost rods B in the storage portion 211 supported by the support portion 222 are conveyed and delivered from above by the conveying portion 322. However, at that time, the toothed timing belt 333 supports the three rods B with the support plate portion 369 of the transport portion 322. That is, the toothed timing belt 333 and the support plate portion 369 support the bar B on the most carry-out port 336 side and the bar B next to it, and the bar B on the side opposite to the carry-out port 336 is supported by the support plate portion. Only 369 supports it. This position is the basic position of the support plate portion 369. When receiving the bar B from the descending support plate portion 369, as shown in FIG. 5, the toothed timing belt 333 is located between the delivery port 336 and the bar B on the most delivery port 336 side, and the most delivery port. Between the Climbing Gold B on the 336 side and the Climbing Gold B next to it, between this Climbing Gold B and the Climbing Gold B on the side opposite to the outlet 336, and at the rotation position where the teeth 335 are arranged, respectively. You will receive money B.
歯３３５は、歯付タイミングベルト３３３の上面上の棒金Ｂの乗り越えを規制することになり、これにより、歯付タイミングベルト３３３の周方向に隣り合う歯３３５と歯３３５との間には１個の棒金Ｂが配置されることになる。その結果、図示略の繰出モータの回転を制御することで、歯付タイミングベルト３３３は、棒金Ｂを１個ずつ繰り出すことになり、棒金Ｂの繰り出し数を制御することになる。
The tooth 335 restricts the overcoming of the bar B on the upper surface of the toothed timing belt 333, whereby one is placed between the tooth 335 and the tooth 335 adjacent to each other in the circumferential direction of the toothed timing belt 333. The pieces of Climbing Gold B will be arranged. As a result, by controlling the rotation of the feeding motor (not shown), the toothed timing belt 333 pays out the bar B one by one, and controls the number of feeding bars B.
図５に示すように、支持部２２２が支持ピン２３１〜２３４を収納部２１１内に突出させて収納部２１１内の棒金Ｂを支持する状態で、繰出部３２１は、支持部２２２で支持する棒金Ｂから離間して支持部２２２の下側の歯付タイミングベルト３３３上に載置された棒金Ｂを、図示略の繰出モータの駆動による歯付タイミングベルト３３３の回転で繰出口３３６から、繰出モータの回転量に応じた数だけ繰り出すことになる。その際に、搬送部３２２は、その搬送台３６１の支持板部３６９の上面を歯付タイミングベルト３３３の上面と略面一に配置しており、歯付タイミングベルト３３３とで棒金Ｂを支持している。
As shown in FIG. 5, the feeding portion 321 is supported by the supporting portion 222 in a state where the supporting portions 222 project the support pins 231 to 234 into the accommodating portion 211 to support the Climbing Gold B in the accommodating portion 211. Climbing gold B placed on the toothed timing belt 333 on the lower side of the support portion 222 apart from the Climbing gold B is rotated from the delivery outlet 336 by the rotation of the toothed timing belt 333 driven by the feeding motor (not shown). , The number of feeds will be increased according to the amount of rotation of the feed motor. At that time, the transport portion 322 arranges the upper surface of the support plate portion 369 of the transport base 361 substantially flush with the upper surface of the toothed timing belt 333, and the bar metal B is supported by the toothed timing belt 333. doing.
上記のように繰出部３２１で棒金Ｂが繰り出されて、その歯付タイミングベルト３３３に載置されている棒金Ｂがなくなると、搬送部３２２が、その搬送駆動部３６２の駆動で図５に示すように基本位置にあった支持板部３６９を、図２８に示すように上昇させる。すると、支持板部３６９が、支持部２２２の支持ピン２３１〜２３４で支持されている収納部２１１内の棒金Ｂを支持する状態となる。
When the Climbing Gold B is fed out by the feeding unit 321 as described above and the Climbing Gold B mounted on the toothed timing belt 333 disappears, the Climbing Gold 322 is driven by the Conveying Drive Unit 362 in FIG. The support plate portion 369, which was in the basic position as shown in FIG. 28, is raised as shown in FIG. 28. Then, the support plate portion 369 is in a state of supporting the bar metal B in the storage portion 211 supported by the support pins 231 to 234 of the support portion 222.
なお、繰出部３２１が、歯付タイミングベルト３３３と支持板部３６９とで棒金Ｂを載置させるのではなく、壁部２２５側から突出する突片を設けて、この突片と歯付タイミングベルト３３３とで棒金Ｂを載置させるようにしても良い。この場合、支持板部３６９が、支持部２２２の支持ピン２３１〜２３４で支持されている収納部２１１内の棒金Ｂを支持する位置を基本位置としても良い。
In addition, the feeding portion 321 does not place the bar B on the toothed timing belt 333 and the support plate portion 369, but provides a projecting piece protruding from the wall portion 225 side, and the projecting piece and the toothed timing are provided. The bar B may be placed on the belt 333. In this case, the position where the support plate portion 369 supports the bar metal B in the storage portion 211 supported by the support pins 231 to 234 of the support portion 222 may be used as the basic position.
次に、支持部２２２が、進退駆動部３４１の駆動で支持ピン２３１〜２３４を収納部２１１内から退避させる。すると、収納部２１１内の棒金Ｂは、支持ピン２３１〜２３４による支持が解除され、搬送部３２２の搬送台３６１により単独で支持される状態となる。
Next, the support unit 222 retracts the support pins 231 to 234 from the storage unit 211 by driving the advance / retreat drive unit 341. Then, the Climbing Gold B in the accommodating portion 211 is released from being supported by the support pins 231 to 234, and is independently supported by the transport base 361 of the transport unit 322.
次に、搬送部３２２が、その搬送駆動部３６２の駆動で搬送台３６１を下降させる。すると、搬送台３６１の支持板部３６９が、収納部２１１内にある全ての棒金Ｂを下降させることになる。この搬送台３６１の支持板部３６９に接触する最下段の棒金Ｂが、支持ピン２３１〜２３４と繰出部３２１の歯付タイミングベルト３３３との間に位置すると、一旦、搬送部３２２が、その搬送駆動部３６２の駆動を停止させて搬送台３６１を停止させる。
Next, the transport unit 322 lowers the transport base 361 by driving the transport drive unit 362. Then, the support plate portion 369 of the transport base 361 lowers all the bar metal B in the storage portion 211. When the lowermost bar B that comes into contact with the support plate portion 369 of the transport base 361 is located between the support pins 231 to 234 and the toothed timing belt 333 of the feeding portion 321, the transport portion 322 once moves. The drive of the transport drive unit 362 is stopped to stop the transport base 361.
次に、支持部２２２が、進退駆動部３４１の駆動で支持ピン２３１〜２３４を収納部２１１内に突出させる。すると、支持ピン２３１〜２３４は、搬送台３６１の支持板部３６９に接触する最下段の棒金Ｂと、その１段上の段の棒金Ｂとの間に入り込む。
Next, the support portion 222 causes the support pins 231 to 234 to protrude into the storage portion 211 by driving the advance / retreat drive unit 341. Then, the support pins 231 to 234 are inserted between the lowermost bar B that comes into contact with the support plate portion 369 of the transport table 361 and the lower bar B that is one step higher.
次に、搬送部３２２が、その搬送駆動部３６２の駆動で搬送台３６１を下降させる。すると、搬送台３６１の支持板部３６９が接触する最下段の棒金Ｂを下降させることになり、その際に、その１段上の段の棒金Ｂを支持ピン２３１〜２３４が支持して、下降する最下段の棒金Ｂから離す。そして、図５に示すように、搬送部３２２は、支持板部３６９が歯付タイミングベルト３３３と共に繰出口３３６側の２個の棒金Ｂを支持し、最も繰出口３３６とは反対側の棒金Ｂについては、支持板部３６９が支持する状態を維持することになる。
Next, the transport unit 322 lowers the transport base 361 by driving the transport drive unit 362. Then, the lowermost bar B that comes into contact with the support plate portion 369 of the transport table 361 is lowered, and at that time, the support pins 231 to 234 support the lower bar B that is one step higher. , Move away from the descending bottom bar B. Then, as shown in FIG. 5, in the transport portion 322, the support plate portion 369 supports the two rods B on the delivery outlet 336 side together with the toothed timing belt 333, and the rod most opposite to the delivery outlet 336. The gold B will be maintained in a state of being supported by the support plate portion 369.
以上のように、棒金繰出機構２１３は、繰出部３２１で繰出部３２１上にある全ての棒金Ｂが繰り出されると、搬送部３２２が上昇して支持部２２２で支持された棒金Ｂを支持し、支持部２２２が搬送部３２２で支持された棒金Ｂの支持を解除し、搬送部３２２が下降して繰出部３２１に棒金Ｂを搬送し、その途中で、支持部２２２が繰出部３２１に搬送された棒金Ｂよりも上段の棒金Ｂを支持する。
As described above, in the Climbing Gold Feeding Mechanism 213, when all the Climbing Golds B on the Climbing Gold 321 are fed out by the Climbing Gold 321, the Climbing Gold 322 rises to lift the Climbing Gold B supported by the Supporting Part 222. Supporting, the support portion 222 releases the support of the bar B supported by the transport portion 322, the transport portion 322 descends to transport the bar B to the payout portion 321 and the support portion 222 feeds out in the middle. Supports the upper bar B above the bar B conveyed to the section 321.
なお、繰出部３２１は、繰り出す棒金Ｂがなくなった後、搬送部３２２で棒金Ｂが搬送されると、次の棒金Ｂの繰り出しが実行可能となる。即ち、例えば、第１の繰出処理で、最下層の３個の棒金Ｂのうちの２個を繰り出し、歯付タイミングベルト３３３に棒金Ｂが１個残り、その後、第２の繰出処理で、再度３個の棒金Ｂを繰り出す場合、先ず、歯付タイミングベルト３３３に残っている１個の棒金Ｂを繰り出した後に、上記のように、支持部２２２で支持されている最下段の３個の棒金Ｂを搬送部３２２で繰出部３２１に搬送することになり、その後、繰出部３２１が歯付タイミングベルト３３３で残り２個の棒金Ｂを繰り出すことになる。
When the coin-roll B is conveyed by the transport unit 322 after the coin-roll B to be fed is exhausted, the feeding portion 321 can execute the next feeding of the coin-roll B. That is, for example, in the first feeding process, two of the three bottom metal bars B are fed, one bar B remains on the toothed timing belt 333, and then in the second feeding process. When feeding out three coin-rolls B again, first, after feeding out one of the coin-rolls B remaining on the toothed timing belt 333, as described above, the lowermost step supported by the support portion 222. The three Climbing Gold B will be conveyed to the feeding section 321 by the conveying section 322, and then the feeding section 321 will feed the remaining two Climbing Gold B by the toothed timing belt 333.

棒金払出搬送部１２４は、棒金収納部１２３の少なくとも何れか一つの個別収納繰出部２１５から棒金Ｂを繰り出す際に、図示略の移動モータの駆動で搬送ベルト３９３をその上面が棒金搬送リフト１１１に向かうように回転させることになる。これにより、棒金払出搬送部１２４は、個別収納繰出部２１５の繰出口３３６から繰り出された棒金Ｂを搬送ベルト３９３の上面に載置させて棒金搬送リフト１１１に搬送することになる。なお、搬送ベルト３９３として歯付きのベルトを使用するようにしても良く、これにより、個別収納繰出部２１５の繰出口３３６から繰り出された棒金Ｂをより確実に棒金搬送リフト１１１に搬送することができる。
The Climbing Gold Disbursement Transport Unit 124 uses a moving motor (not shown) to drive the Climbing Gold 393 on the upper surface of the Climbing Gold when the Climbing Gold B is fed out from at least one of the individual storage and delivery units 215 of the Climbing Gold Storage Unit 123. It will be rotated toward the transport lift 111. As a result, the Climbing Gold Disbursement and Conveying Unit 124 carries the Climbing Gold B, which has been unwound from the delivery outlet 336 of the individual storage and feeding unit 215, on the upper surface of the conveying belt 393 and is transported to the Climbing Gold Conveying Lift 111. A toothed belt may be used as the transport belt 393, whereby the bar B fed from the payout outlet 336 of the individual storage payout portion 215 is more reliably transported to the bar transfer lift 111. be able to.
以上に述べた硬貨処理装置１０によれば、収納部２１１に棒金Ｂが鉛直方向に積み上げられて収納されるため、無駄なスペースを削減可能となり、小型化可能となる。
According to the coin processing device 10 described above, since the bar B is stacked and stored in the storage unit 211 in the vertical direction, wasted space can be reduced and miniaturization can be achieved.
また、収納部２１１に棒金Ｂが複数列複数段に収納されるため、無駄なスペースを更に削減可能となり、更に小型化可能となる。
Further, since the bar B is stored in the storage unit 211 in a plurality of rows and a plurality of stages, wasted space can be further reduced and the size can be further reduced.
また、収納部２１１が水平方向に複数個並設されるため、棒金Ｂを金種別等に分類して収納することができる。
Further, since a plurality of storage units 211 are arranged side by side in the horizontal direction, the coin-roll B can be classified by denomination and stored.
また、棒金収納機構２１２は、クランプレバー２６１，２６２を昇降駆動部２６６で上下に移動させるため、棒金Ｂの放出位置を収納部２１１の棒金収納量に合わせることができる。従って、放出する棒金Ｂの収納済み棒金Ｂへの落下を抑制でき、棒金Ｂの損傷や騒音を抑制することができる。
Further, since the Climbing Gold Storage Mechanism 212 moves the clamp levers 261,262 up and down by the elevating drive unit 266, the discharge position of the Climbing Gold B can be adjusted to the Climbing Gold storage amount of the Climbing Gold 211. Therefore, it is possible to suppress the falling of the discharged bar B to the stored bar B, and it is possible to suppress damage and noise of the bar B.
また、クランプレバー２６１，２６２を昇降駆動部２６６で上下に移動させると、解除部２９４が、収納部２１１に収納されている棒金Ｂ又は収納部２１１に形成された当接部３１１，３１２に接触して凸部２９２を棒金Ｂの両端から離間させるため、昇降駆動部２６６の駆動を利用して、凸部２９２を棒金Ｂの両端から離間させて棒金Ｂを放出させることができる。従って、部品点数増及びコスト増を抑制することができる。
Further, when the clamp levers 261 and 262 are moved up and down by the elevating drive unit 266, the release portion 294 is moved to the bar metal B stored in the storage portion 211 or the contact portions 311, 312 formed in the storage portion 211. In order to make contact and separate the convex portion 292 from both ends of the bar B, the drive of the elevating drive unit 266 can be used to separate the convex portion 292 from both ends of the bar B to release the bar B. .. Therefore, it is possible to suppress an increase in the number of parts and an increase in cost.
また、棒金収納部１２３外から搬送された棒金Ｂを、収納部２１１の上方に設けられた棒金受入搬送部１２１で棒金収納機構２１２に搬送することができる。従って、複数並べられた個別収納繰出部２１５に良好に棒金Ｂを振り分けて収納することができる。
Further, the Climbing Gold B transported from outside the Climbing Gold Storage Unit 123 can be transported to the Climbing Gold Storage Mechanism 212 by the Climbing Gold Receiving and Transporting Unit 121 provided above the Climbing Gold Storage Unit 211. Therefore, the Climbing Gold B can be satisfactorily distributed and stored in the individually arranged individual storage feeding portions 215.
また、棒金繰出機構２１３は、繰出部３２１で棒金Ｂが繰り出されると、搬送部３２２が上昇して支持部２２２で支持された棒金Ｂを支持し、支持部２２２が搬送部３２２で支持された棒金Ｂの支持を解除し、搬送部３２２が下降して繰出部３２１に棒金Ｂを搬送し、支持部２２２が繰出部３２１に搬送された棒金Ｂよりも上段の棒金Ｂを支持するため、繰出部３２１から繰り出される棒金Ｂを、それよりも上段の棒金Ｂと分離することができる。よって、繰出部３２１で円滑に棒金Ｂを繰り出すことができる。
Further, in the Climbing Gold Feeding Mechanism 213, when the Climbing Gold B is fed out by the Climbing Gold 321, the Climbing Gold 322 rises to support the Climbing Gold B supported by the Climbing Gold 222, and the Climbing Gold 222 is supported by the Climbing Gold 322. The support of the supported Climbing Gold B is released, the conveying portion 322 is lowered to convey the Climbing Gold B to the feeding portion 321 and the supporting portion 222 is a Climbing Gold above the Climbing Gold B conveyed to the feeding portion 321. In order to support B, the bar B fed from the payout portion 321 can be separated from the bar B in the upper stage. Therefore, the coin-roll B can be smoothly fed out by the feeding unit 321.
歯付タイミングベルト３３３が棒金Ｂを歯３３５で支持して１個ずつ繰り出すため、棒金Ｂを良好に１個ずつ繰り出すことができる。
Since the toothed timing belt 333 supports the bar B with the teeth 335 and feeds out one by one, the bar B can be fed out one by one satisfactorily.
棒金繰出機構２１３から繰り出された棒金Ｂを、収納部２１１の下方に設けられた棒金払出搬送部１２４で棒金収納部１２３外に搬送することができる。
