Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Objective of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) The present invention provides a method for extracting the endmost paper sheets one by one from a group of bundled paper sheets and sorting them by type. The present invention relates to a processing device for paper sheets.

(Prior Art) Central banks and the like have come to check the number of banknote bundles brought in from each bank and each branch and to distinguish between authenticity.

Normally, this processing means sets 100 banknotes in a unit of 10 bundles, each bundled with a band stamped with the processing date, bank name, name of the person in charge, etc., in the take-out section of the inspection machine. However, each bundle is checked.

Conventionally, the strips of ten banknote bundles are removed in advance and arranged in a line, and cards with numbers corresponding to the arrangement of the strips are placed on top of each banknote group. Next, stack 10 bundles of banknotes with cards on them and set them in the extraction section of the inspection machine.
Next, cards and other cards are taken out one by one, normal tickets are separated from cards and abnormal tickets, and the cards and abnormal tickets are accumulated in the reject pocket. When an abnormal note is found, by looking at the number of the adjacent card, the band corresponding to this card number is searched, and from the information written there, the banknote was collected when, where, and by whom. It is designed to determine whether an abnormal ticket has occurred in a bundle and to perform verification for each bundle.

(Problem to be solved by the invention) However, with such conventional processing means, it is very difficult to cut the strip in advance, place the cards on it, stack 10 bundles to prevent them from falling apart, and set them in the take-out section. It's a hassle. 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. There is. Furthermore, since cards are taken into the device and transported in the same way as banknotes, it is necessary to have paper similar to banknotes, and the cards must be replaced in a short period of time, making running costs high and uneconomical. Also, if a banknote is rejected, it is necessary to search for the card and the corresponding strip, so it is necessary to save it until the processing of the stacked bundle of 10 strips and the corresponding 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.

The present invention has been made based on the above circumstances, and its purpose is to provide an economical paper sheet processing device that is easy to operate, can reliably collate each bundle, and has low running costs. This is what I am trying to do.

[Structure of the Invention] (Means for Solving the Problems) The present invention provides paper sheets which are bundled in a band and have a magnetically adsorbable dividing plate inserted between the band and the foremost paper sheet. A main body is provided with a take-out section for receiving multiple stacked bundles of paper sheets, and a detecting body is placed at a position opposite to the dividing plate of the foremost bundle of paper sheets received in the take-out section of the main body. and a cutting blade facing the side edge of the bundle of paper sheets at the end of the take-out section, and when the separating plate is detected by the detection means, the cutting blade A cutting device that moves parallel to the surface to cut the strip, and a magnetic adsorption member that can face the separating plate of the bundle of paper sheets at the forefront of the take-out section with the strip interposed therebetween, and the strip is cut by the cutting device. a removing means for magnetically attracting and holding the sorting plate with the strip sandwiched therebetween and removing the strip and the sorting plate from the group of paper sheets as the magnetic attracting member moves; and an ejecting means having a ejecting member facing the bundle and sequentially ejecting the group of paper sheets from which the band and the dividing plate have been removed by the removing means, starting from the foremost one, and guiding the group to a step of subjecting it to a predetermined process. The structure is as follows.

(Function) That is, since the present invention has the above configuration,
A plurality of bundles of paper sheets bundled in a band together with a dividing plate are supplied in a stacked manner to a take-out section, the presence or absence of a dividing plate is detected by a detection means, the band of the bundle of paper sheets is cut by a cutting means, and a removing means is provided. The cut band and the dividing board can be removed from the paper sheet group, and the remaining paper sheet group can be sequentially taken out by the carrying-out means and guided to a process of predetermined processing,
Since the bundle band is set in the take-out part without removing it, the operation is easier and more reliable than the conventional method in which the band is removed in advance and then set in the take-out part. In addition, the sorting board is not taken out in the same way as paper sheets, but only the band of the group of paper sheets being processed is removed, so the classification of each bundle is clear and reliable collation is possible. In addition, the partition plate is not a consumable item as in the past, and can be used for a long period of time.

(Example) Hereinafter, an example of the processing apparatus of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. 1 in the figure is the predetermined number of sheets, for example 100.
This is a bundle of paper sheets made up of sheets of paper sheets P..., and when processing this paper sheet bundle 1, a separating plate 3 is inserted in advance between the uppermost paper sheet P and the band 2. I'm starting to do that. Then, a predetermined number of paper sheet bundles 1 with the sorting plates 3 inserted therein, for example, 10 bundles are divided into 1
They are stacked as a unit and supplied to the take-out section 4 of the main body A of the processing apparatus all at once as shown in FIG. This take-out section 4 stacks paper bundles 1 on a vertically movable receiving plate 4a, and a standby storage section 100 is provided adjacent to these.

The sorting plate 3 is formed to be smaller in size than the paper sheets P, and the top surface of one end of the paper sheets P is in direct contact with the roller 5 as a take-out member constituting the carrying-out means T, and the sheets are bundled in a band. Mama's paper bundle 1
It is formed to a thickness that allows it to be inserted into the

The unloading means T includes a vacuum pump (not shown) communicating with the unloading roller 5, unloading levers 7, 7 which are rotatably connected to rotary solenoids 6 on both sides of the unloading roller 5, a plurality of conveying rollers 8, etc. It is composed of a conveyor belt 9 that is stretched across the conveyor belt 9. Then, the paper sheets P are inspected while being conveyed by the conveyor belt 9 and are separated and conveyed into regular bills and rejected tickets, and the regular bills are stored in a collection box (not shown), and the rejected tickets are stored in a rejected ticket collection box 10.
It is designed to lead to each.

Further, the dividing plate 3 has an electromagnet 1 as a magnetic attraction member constituting the removal means Q provided in the extraction section 4.
1 is made of a conductive magnetic material that can be attracted and held and released from holding. The removing means Q is supported by an actuation mechanism 12 that supports the electromagnet 11 so as to be movable vertically and horizontally. That is, the actuation mechanism 12 includes a magnetic arm 13, a support shaft 14 that pivotally supports the magnetic arm 13 in a slidable manner,
15, a reciprocating belt 16 connected to the magnet arm 13, a rotary solenoid 17 that rotationally displaces the support shafts 14 and 15, and the like. In addition, there is a dividing plate/band storage box 1 on the moving end side of the electromagnet 11.
8 is rotatably supported using one side as a fulcrum.

At the side edge of the stack of paper sheets 1 located at the top,
Cutting means C as shown in the figure is provided. This is lever 2 connected to rotary solenoid 19.
0, 21, a cutting blade 22 rotatably connected to the end of one lever 21, a slide housing 23 that rotatably supports this cutting blade 22, and a bar 24 that guides this slide housing 23. It consists of Therefore, when the rotary solenoid 19 is energized, the cutting blade 22 is displaced along the bar 24 while rotating.

A part of the removing means Q is provided with a detecting means R. This detection means R is the magnetic arm 13
It consists of a mounting plate 25 attached to the electromagnet 11 and a detection body 26, which is provided on the mounting plate 25 and can check the continuity by contacting the division plate 3 and detect that it is the division plate 3. .

In addition, an operation desk 28 equipped with an operation panel 27 is provided on the front side of the take-out section 4 configured in this manner, and is used for placing the bundle of paper sheets 1 to be processed and for performing other necessary processing. It is now possible to do so. The operation panel 27 is provided with a start button 29, various lamps 30, etc., and a group of injection keys 31 for keying in necessary information.

The operation of the above embodiment can be easily understood by referring to FIGS. 1 through 3 and the flowchart shown in FIG. 4. In other words, the paper sheet bundle 1 with the sorting plate 3 inserted into the take-out section 4...
When the starting pump 29 of the operation panel 27 is pressed, the receiving plate 4a rises and the stack of paper sheets is raised until the uppermost paper sheet P contacts the ends of the take-out roller 5 and the take-out levers 7, 7. 1. Push up. When the dividing plate 3 is detected by the detector 26, the electromagnet 11 facing the position of the band 2 is excited, and after attracting the dividing plate 3, the cutting blade 22 is operated to cut the band 2.

At this time, a part of the band 2 remains sandwiched between the electromagnet 11 and the dividing plate 3.

When the band 2 is cut by the cutting blade 22, the actuating mechanism 12 is actuated to move the electromagnet 11 to the side opposite to the take-out roller 5. The sorting plate 3 and the band 2 are removed from the paper sheet group P... and transported to the sorting plate/band storage box 18, where the electromagnet 11 is demagnetized. Therefore, the dividing plate 3 and the band 2 are put into the storage box 18.

The electromagnet 11 moves again to the take-out roller 5 side and stops at a position above the group of paper sheets P... to wait.

On the other hand, the take-out levers 7, 7 rotate upward and move away from the uppermost sheet P, the take-out roller 5 rotates, and the vacuum pump is driven. Therefore, the paper sheets P are sequentially taken out one by one, and conveyed by the conveyor belt 9,
9 into an intake conveyance path formed between mutually opposing surfaces. Then, an inspection device (not shown) provided during the conveyance 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 next sorting plate is detected by the detection body 26, the rotation of the take-out roller 5 is stopped, and at this time, the paper sheets P are removed from the rejected ticket collection box 10. To complete the 100-sheet collation by keying in the number of sheets P... and the necessary information written on the band 2 held between the sorting board 3 and the electromagnet 11 into the index execution key group 31. become.

As described above as an example of the present invention, after cutting the band 2 of the sheet bundle 1, the separating plate 3 and the band 2 are cut.
The paper sheets P... are sequentially taken out after removing the paper sheets P..., but as another example of the present invention, after cutting the band 2, the separating plate 3 and the band 2 are removed in the middle of taking out the paper sheets P... The processing speed may be increased in this way.

In addition, it goes without saying that the present invention is not limited to the above-described embodiments, and can be modified in various ways without departing from the gist.

(Effects of the Invention) As explained above, according to the present invention, a plurality of bundles of paper sheets bundled in a band together with a dividing plate are supplied in a stacked manner to the take-out section, and the presence or absence of the dividing plate is detected by the detection means,
The cutting means cuts the band of the bundle of paper sheets, the removing means removes the cut band and the dividing plate from the group of paper sheets, and the carrying-out means sequentially takes out the remaining group of paper sheets and processes them in a predetermined manner. It is designed to guide you through the process. Therefore, since the bundle band is set in the take-out part without being removed, the operation is easier and more reliable than in the conventional case where the band is removed in advance and then set in the take-out part. In addition, the sorting board is not taken out in the same way as paper sheets, but only the band of the group of paper sheets being processed is removed, so the classification of each bundle is clear and reliable collation is possible. Further, the partition plate can be used for a long period of time instead of being a consumable item as in the past, and has the advantage of being economical with low running costs.
