Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Object of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) The present invention receives a plurality of bundled bundles of paper sheets at once, and stores the endmost paper sheet as one sheet. The present invention relates to a paper sheet feeding device that takes out and feeds paper sheets one by one.

(Prior Art) At central banks, etc., bundles of banknotes brought in from each bank and each branch are checked for number and authenticity.

Normally, this processing method involves loading 100 banknotes into the take-out section of an inspection machine, each bundle of 10 banknotes being bundled with a band stamped with the processing date, bank name, name of the person in charge, etc. However, each bundle is checked.

Conventionally, bands from ten banknote bundles are removed in advance and arranged in a line, and cards with numbers corresponding to the order of arrangement of the bands are placed on top of each banknote group. Next, 10 with the card on it.
Set the banknotes in a stack in the take-out section of the inspection machine, then take out the banknotes one by one including the cards, separate the normal banknotes from the cards and abnormal banknotes, and rigidly remove the cards and abnormal banknotes. Accumulates in ectopocket. If an abnormal note is found, by looking at the card number adjacent to it, we can search for the band corresponding to this card, and from the information entered in this band, we can determine when, where, and by whom the abnormal note occurred in the bundle of banknotes. Each bundle is checked to see if it is an abnormal ticket.

However, with such a conventional processing method, it is very troublesome to cut the strips in advance, place the cards on them, stack 10 bundles to prevent them from falling apart, and set them in the take-out section. In addition, since cards are also taken in and transported, if the cards of the next lot are taken out together with the banknotes, there is a serious problem that the classification of the rejected banknotes becomes unclear. be. Also, if a banknote is rejected, it is necessary to search for the obi that corresponds to the card, so it is necessary to associate the 10 obi with the stacked bundle and save it until the processing of the 10 bundles is completed. However, this is extremely troublesome, and a serious problem arises in that if the order of arrangement of the bands is different for some reason, reliable verification cannot be performed.

Therefore, recently, in order to be able to process without these problems occurring, multiple bundles of paper sheets are set without removing the band, and only the band of the bundle of paper sheets to be processed is removed. It has been proposed to take out and supply one sheet at a time for inspection.

Conventionally, a method has been developed in which a plurality of bundles of paper sheets are set without removing the band, and the band of only the bundle of paper sheets to be processed is removed, and each sheet is taken out and fed one by one. There is one disclosed in Publication No. 42768.

This pushes out the uppermost bundle of paper sheets housed in the bucket magazine in the transverse direction, makes the band wrapped around one longitudinal end of this bundle of paper sheets face the suction plunger, and then , the band is held by suction with a suction plunger, and in this state, the other longitudinal end of the bundle of paper sheets is held by a conveying means and conveyed in the longitudinal direction, thereby pulling out the band and removing the band. The structure is such that one leaf group is supplied to the extracting means.

(Problems to be Solved by the Invention) However, in such a conventional configuration, it is difficult to set the stack of paper sheets, remove the band,
Each sheet is taken out at a different position, which increases the size of the device. In addition, the configuration is such that the band is held by suction and the band is pulled out by moving the group of paper sheets in this state, and is applicable to bundles of paper sheets that are tied inward from one end in the longitudinal direction, as in Japan. If you do,
There is a risk that the group of paper sheets will be crushed and damaged by the belt being pulled out. For this reason, when processing, it is necessary to bring the band closer to one end in the longitudinal direction of the group of paper sheets, which poses a problem in that the work becomes extremely troublesome.

The present invention has been made based on the above circumstances, and its purpose is to provide a compact machine that can handle multiple bundles of paper sheets received at once, from removing the band to taking out a single sheet, at the set position. It is an object of the present invention to provide a paper sheet feeding device which has a simple configuration and has good workability without the need to shift the position of the band in advance.

[Structure of the Invention] (Means for Solving the Problems) In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the present invention provides a paper sheet bundled with a band to which a detection part for sorting that can be distinguished from paper sheets is added in advance. A paper sheet accommodating section that accommodates a plurality of bundles in a stacked manner so that the endmost paper sheet is at a position suitable for taking out, and a paper sheet accommodating section that accommodates a plurality of bundles in a stacked manner so that the endmost paper sheet is at a position suitable for taking out. A detection means for detecting a sorting detected part added to a band of a bundle of paper sheets at the end, and a detecting means for detecting a sorting detected part added to a band of a bundle of paper sheets at the end, and a detection means for detecting a part to be detected for sorting by this detecting means. a strip cutting means for cutting the strip; a strip removing means for removing the strip cut by the strip cutting means; The structure includes a take-out means for taking out sheets one by one.

(Operation) That is, according to the above means of the present invention, a plurality of bundles of paper sheets received at once are set at the set position.
You can do everything from removing the belt to taking out one piece. Therefore, the configuration can be made more compact. In addition, since the band is removed after cutting the band, it is possible to reliably prevent paper sheets from being damaged by rolling with the band, unlike when the band is pulled out without cutting it.
There is no need to shift the position of the band in advance, and workability can be improved. In addition, the paper sheets are bundled with a band to which a detection part for sorting that can be separated from the paper sheets is added, and the band of the endmost paper sheet bundle is separated based on the detection operation of the detection part for sorting by the detection means. Since each bundle is cut, each bundle can be clearly identified, and each bundle can be verified reliably.

(Embodiment) Hereinafter, an embodiment of the paper sheet feeding device of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 4. In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a bundle of paper sheets in which a predetermined number of sheets P, for example 100 sheets, are bundled together in a band.When processing this bundle of paper sheets 1, the predetermined number of sheets P in the band 2 is set in advance as shown in FIG. A sorting detected portion 3 that can be distinguished from paper sheets P is added at the position. Then, in this way, the detected part 3 for classification is attached to the band 2.
A predetermined number of paper sheet bundles 1 to which has been added, for example, 10 bundles, are stacked as one unit, and as shown in FIG. become.

The classification detection portion 3 is formed by applying special ink or a fluorescent substance.

After supplying the paper sheet bundle 1 with the sorting detected portion 3 formed in the paper sheet bundle storage section 4 in a stacked state, when the start button (not shown) is pressed, the receiving plate (not shown) rises. Then, the sheet bundle 1 is pushed up to a position where the uppermost sheet P comes into contact with a take-out roller 5 serving as a take-out means. On the other hand, the topmost paper sheet bundle 1
The classification detected portion 3 added to the band 2 is optically detected by a detector 6 serving as a detection means.

When the detector 6 detects the sorting detected portion 3 provided on the band 2 on the topmost bundle of paper sheets 1, a cutter 7 serving as a band cutting means moves in a □ pattern and descends. The lower end pressing piece 7a is pressed against the center of the upper surface of the uppermost bundle of paper sheets 1 to form a gap between the uppermost paper sheet P and the band 2, and in this state, the cutter 7 The band 2 is cut by the blade 7b by moving along the upper surface of the type P, and then the cutter 7
will rise and return to its original position to wait.

On the other hand, both ends of the cut band 2 spread outward as shown in FIG. The middle part of the band 2 can be caught on the hooks 8a, 8a.

When the band 2 is cut by the cutter 7, the band pulling members 8, 8 move toward the side opposite to the take-out roller 5 as shown by the two-dot chain line in FIGS. 2 and 3, and the sheet group P...
The strip 2 is removed from the belt 2, and then the take-out roller 5 rotates to take out the endmost sheets P one after another and feed them into the take-in conveyance path 9 formed between the mutually opposing surfaces of the conveyor belt. Then, an inspection device (not shown) provided in the middle of the take-in conveyance path 9 performs inspections such as counting the number of sheets and determining authenticity.

In this way, the paper sheets P... are taken out, and when the detection part 3 for sorting added to the band 2 of the next paper sheet bundle 1 is detected by the detector 6, the take-out roller 5 rotation stops. Then, the number of redirected paper sheets P... and the band pulling members 8, 8.
By keying in the necessary information written on Obi 2 held by the operator, the 100-sheet verification is completed.

By this key-in operation, the band dusting member 10 rotates as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3, and the band 2 held by the band pulling members 8 and 8 is removed from the storage box 1.
After that, the band pulling members 8, 8 and the band dusting member 10 return to their predetermined positions.

Then, the above operation is repeated again.

In the above-mentioned embodiment, the detection area 3 for classification was formed by applying a special ink or fluorescent substance to the band 2, but as shown in FIG. A label 12 coated with a substance may be applied.
Further, instead of special ink or fluorescent substance, a metal piece or the like may be used for optical detection.

Furthermore, instead of optical detection, magnetic detection may be performed using magnetic powder, or electrical detection may be performed using a conductive material.

Furthermore, after cutting the band 2 of the paper sheet bundle 1,
The paper sheets P... are sequentially taken out after removing the band 2, but as another example of the present invention, after the band 2 is cut, the band 2 is removed in the middle of taking out the paper sheets P... The processing speed may be increased.

In addition, it goes without saying that the present invention can be modified in various ways without departing from the gist of the invention.

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, the present invention allows the process from removing the band to taking out a single sheet from a bundle of paper sheets received at once at the set position, resulting in a compact configuration. I can figure it out. In addition, since the band is removed after cutting the band, it is possible to reliably prevent paper sheets from being damaged due to rolling with the band, as would be the case when pulling out the band without cutting it. There is no need to shift, and work efficiency can be improved. Also,
The paper sheets are bundled with a band to which a sorting detected part that can be distinguished from the paper sheets is added, and the band of the paper sheet bundle at the end is cut based on the detection operation of the sorting detected part of the detection means. By doing so, each bundle can be identified clearly, and each bundle can be verified reliably.
