Field of Industrial Application The present invention relates to a paper sheet strapping device, and in particular to a heater cutter mechanism for performing operations such as thermal bonding by a heater and tape cutting by a cutter substantially simultaneously and continuously. Regarding improvements.

b. Conventional technology Conventional paper sheet strapping devices (for example,
See Publication No. 11913. ), as shown in FIG.
d, cutter 42, heater arm 39, heater 42
After temporary adhesion with heater 41, cutter 4
2, the sheet is cut leaving an unbonded portion, and then the unbonded portion is bonded by displacement of the heater and the sheet bundle 45.

c Problems to be Solved by the Invention In the conventional paper sheet strapping device described above, when the heater arm rotates and temporary welding is performed by the heater 41, the tape guide 28d and the cutter 42 are not in a predetermined position. If there is a change in the size of the bundle of sheets due to the If the distance between the tape and the running path of the tape is long, there is a risk that the tape may be fused by the pressure of the heater.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to eliminate the above-mentioned problems and provide a heater cutter mechanism that reliably performs temporary adhesion, cutting, and thermal adhesion of tapes regardless of changes in the size of a bundle of paper sheets.

d Means for solving the problem The heater cutter mechanism in the paper sheet banding device according to the present invention is a paper sheet banding mechanism for banding a plurality of paper sheet bundles into a single bundle using a vertical band and a horizontal band. A leaf strapping device includes a rotatably provided mounting table, a pair of clamping plates disposed on the mounting table, a heater elastically contacting the back surface of the clamping plate, and supporting the heater. a rotatable heater arm, a cutter body rotatably provided coaxially with the heater arm, a control means having a solenoid for operating the cutter body, and a tape for hanging a band on a rotating bundle of paper sheets. The tape guide is comprised of a rotatable tape guide that guides the flow, and a connecting plate that connects the tape guide and the heater arm, and the tape guide is rotated in conjunction with the rotation of the heater arm.

e Effect In the heater cutter mechanism in the paper sheet banding device according to the present invention, the heater arm and the tape guide rotate in conjunction with each other via the connecting plate due to the rotation of the heater cutter portion, and the heater cuts the tape after banding. Temporary bonding can be performed at a location where the angle between the bundle of paper sheets and the tape is constant (because the position of the tape guide and the position of the heater do not change because they are connected by the connecting plate), and The solenoid is activated by the input from the manual control, and the cutter body can cut the bundle of paper sheets at a predetermined length. (The relationship between the paper sheets and the tape does not change, and the angle between the bundle of paper sheets and the tape is also almost constant.) The action of the heater on the unbonded part after cutting is also elastically supported because the length of the unbonded part is constant. The adhesive can be completely bonded with the adhesive.

is attached, and the clamp arm base 14
It is fixed to the mounting table 25 by vertically passing through both legs of a U-shaped rod holder 22 attached to the upper surface of the clamp arm table 14, which will be described later. The mounting base 25 and the table support 56 are coupled together with the slide rod and the table post 12d so as to be integrally rotatable.

A pair of rectangular link supports 14a are mounted on the upper surface of the clamp arm stand 14,
A pair of clamp arms 18 are rotatably attached via shaft supports 19 between the link supports 14a and at both ends thereof. A first roller 20 is attached to one end of each clamp arm 18 and joined to the lower surface of the engaging member 17, and a second roller 21 is attached to the other end of each clamp arm 18. The second rollers 21 are in contact with the outer surfaces of a pair of clamping plates 24, which will be described later. Further, the rod holder 22 is mounted on the upper surface of the clamp arm base 14, and has a U-shape that bridges the pair of link supports 14a at right angles. A pair of holding shafts 23 are disposed so as to be fixed through the holding shafts 23, and a pair of clamping plates 24 are opposed to each other so as to be able to slide horizontally to each other via a spring 23a wound around the holding shafts 23. It is arranged. Further, as is clear from FIG. 2, a pair of rotating shafts 50 are disposed on both sides of the base 1, and
A pair of centering arms 51 are provided which are rotatably supported by the centering arm 51 and are used to strike both ends of the bundle of paper sheets 45 to align them. One end of the rotating shaft 50 is rotatably supported by a mounting member, and a pulley 5 is provided at the other end.

By driving in reverse rotation, the pair of centering arms 51 can be reciprocated inwardly relative to each other. When each centering arm 51 rotates as described above,
Paper sheets on a receiving plate 26, which will be described later, are pushed by the tip 51a of the centering arm and placed in the center of the machine. In other words, each centering arm 51 has the function of aligning both ends of the bundle of paper sheets 45. Further, at an upper position of the pair of holding shafts 23 which are fixedly fixed through the rod holding body 22, there is a notch 25a which is attached to the upper end of the slide rod 57 and which receives the lower end of the opposing clamping plate 24. A circular mounting table 25 is provided, and on this mounting table 25, four dogleg-shaped receiving plates 26 are arranged in pairs and pivoted around a shaft support 27 in the direction of the arrow. Each receiving plate 26 is provided via a spring (not shown) so as to be able to freely and rotationally return, and one end of each receiving plate 26 is connected to the clamping plate 24.
It is urged by the spring so as to come into contact with the inner surface of the clamping plate 24, and rotates in the direction of the arrow in conjunction with the clamping plate 24. For example, assuming that this receiving plate 26 does not exist, when the clamping plate 24 is opened to the solid line position as shown in FIG. There is a possibility that an accident may occur in which a sheet of paper falls from the notch 25a when it is torn, but the receiving plate 26 that interlocks with the closing plate 24 has the function of preventing such an accident. Incidentally, reference numeral 58 is a bundle stopper plate for preventing over-insertion of paper sheets.

In FIGS. 2 and 4, a tape 28b from the tape reel 59 is located outside the left clamping plate 24.
A tape feed roller 28 is freely rotatable for guiding the tape to the tape guide 28a after it has been pulled out and passed through a required path by a guide member (not shown). The outer side of the plate 24 has a spring action at its lower end so that it can swing freely, and a tape passage 29.
A tape holding plate 29 is provided, and the second roller 2 of the clamp arm 18 is
1 is in contact with the tape holding plate 29, and furthermore, a sheet rotation mechanism 30 held on the base 1 is disposed above each clamping plate 24.

The paper sheet rotation mechanism 30 consists of a pair of holding arms 31 that are rotatable with respect to each other, and a pair of mutually engaged gears 32 are coaxially connected to one end 31a of each holding arm 31. An arm member (not shown) provided on one of the holding arms 31 engages with a cam member (not shown) which is arranged and aligned with the drive shaft of the drive motor 31b' shown in FIG. When the holding arm 31 is operated via the cam member and arm member by the drive of the motor 31b', the other gear 32 that meshes with one gear 32 is also driven, and each holding arm 31 opens and closes in opposite directions. Driven. At the other end 31b of each holding arm 31, a holding plate 33 for holding a bundle of paper sheets 45 with a predetermined pressing force and rotating it by a predetermined angle is provided rotatably around a shaft 34. A crank rod 36 is attached to one end of the crank portion 35 fixed to the gear, and the end portion 36a of the crank rod 36 constituting the rotational drive portion is coaxially connected to the one gear 32 via a link 37. engages with a freely rotatable cam member 31b'', which is further coupled to the drive motor 31b' via a rotation transmission member (not shown) such as a pulley or belt;
When the crank rod 36 moves in its longitudinal direction, the movement is converted into a movement in the rotational direction by the crank portion 35, and the holding plate 33 is rotated by a predetermined angle (approximately 90 degrees in this embodiment). The bundle of paper sheets held by the bundle plate 33 is similarly rotated 90 degrees.

Further, a heater cutter portion 38 is provided below the other holding arm 31. The heater cutter portion 38 includes a heater arm 39 that is rotatably provided above the base 1 and a rotatably provided heater arm 39 that is biased by a spring member 40 at the end of the heater arm 39. a heater 41, a heater arm driving roller 39a that is coaxial with the heater arm 39 and freely rotatable, and the heater arm 39.
It is composed of a cutter body 42 which is provided coaxially and freely rotatable, and a solenoid 43 for operating this cutter body 42, and the tape guide 28a provided together with the tape feed roller 28 is connected. The heater arm 3 via the plate 44
The heater arm driving roller 39a and the tape feeding roller 28 are driven by a driving motor 28c disposed on the base 1 via a connecting belt while in contact with each other. be done. Further, each component of the heater cutter portion 38 is integrally driven to rotate by a heater arm driving roller 39a and a drive motor (not shown).

Next, a case will be described in which the paper sheet strapping device according to the present invention is operated in the above configuration.
Now, for example, take 10 bundles of paper sheets (bills) 45, each bundle of 100 sheets wrapped with tape, and place them on the mounting table 25 shown in FIG. When the plate 26 is placed with one end in contact with the stopper plate 58 and the start button (not shown) is turned on, the second drive motor 1
2 is activated, and the cam 13 and the elevating lever 11 are driven in conjunction with each other, thereby pushing the second support shaft 8 downward. When the second support shaft 8 is pressed down, the engaging member 17 similarly moves downward, and the pair of clamp arms 18 located on the lower surface of the engaging member 17 are moved downwardly by the first roller. By being pushed down by
On one side of the clamping plate 24, the tape holding plate 29 and the tape holding plate 29 are slid toward the center of each other against the biasing force of a spring 23a wound around the holding shaft 23. The bundle of paper sheets 45 is lightly clamped by the operation of the clamp arm 18 and each clamping plate 24, and then the first drive motor 6 is operated and the paper sheet bundle 45 is held by the first drive motor 6 through the second gear 7 and the first gear 5. The first support shaft 3 rotates, and along with this rotation, the clamp arm stand 14 fixed to the first support shaft 3 rotates, and the second support shaft 3 rotates as a result of the rotation of the first support shaft 3. 8 and the table post 12d etc. in which the connecting lever 12c is loosely fitted also rotate, and therefore the table support 56 and the mounting table 25 etc. which are connected to the slide rods 57 also rotate at the same time, so that the mounting table 25 is rotated approximately clockwise. 90
It is controlled so that it stops in the state of rotation.

In the above-mentioned state, when the motor 53 next starts driving, its forward and reverse rotations are transmitted to each centering arm 51 via the belt 55.
1 is positioned between the pair of clamping plates 24 between which the bundle of paper sheets 45 is clamped, and rotates to reciprocate inwardly, whereby each bundle of paper sheets 45 on the receiving plate 26 is 2 by the tip 51a of the centering arm 51
~The above-mentioned mounting table 25 is touched by tapping three times.
The bundle of paper sheets 4
Centering is performed by aligning both ends of 5. When this centering is completed, the motor 53 rotates in the reverse direction and each centering arm 51 returns to its original position (home position).
to return to. Thereafter, the tape guide 28a is rotated slightly by a drive motor (not shown), while the first drive motor 6 is rotated in the opposite direction, and the mounting table 25 is rotated counterclockwise. 29 and the tape path 2 formed between
When 9a coincides with the extension line of the tape guide 28a, the rotation of the mounting table 25 is stopped.

When the above-mentioned stopped state is reached, the tape feed roller 2
8 is rotated by a drive motor 28c, and the tape feed roller 28 and heater arm drive roller 39 are rotated by a drive motor 28c.
The tape 28b held by the tape guide 28a is sent out from the tape guide 28a,
When the tip of b is lightly pressed by the second roller 21 of the clamp arm 18, the spring action of the tape holding plate 29 keeps the tip of the clamping plate 24 in a non-contact state with the back side of the clamping plate 24. Passing through the tape passage 29a between the tape holding plate 29,
When the required length of tape 28b is fed out, the tape feed roller 28 stops, and preparations for starting the tape hanging operation are completed.

When the preparation for applying the tape is completed, the second
The drive motor 12 operates again, and the cam 13 operates the lift lever 11, pushing the second support shaft 8 further downward than in the above-mentioned state, and interlockingly fixes it to the second support shaft 8. The engaging member 17 also descends, and each clamp arm 18 located on its lower surface
As the clamping plates 24 rotate toward the center, each clamping plate 24 also slides further toward the center, and on the one clamping plate 24 side, a large pressing force is applied to the tape holding plate 29 to overcome the spring action of the clamping plate 24. Since the tape is applied via two rollers 21, the tape holding plate 29 closes the tape passage 29a and moves the tape 28b to the clamping plate 24 while holding the introduction part of the tape 28b.
The bundle of paper sheets 45, which is pushed toward the back side of the tape 28b and thus sandwiched between the clamping plates 24, is firmly clamped together with the tape 28b.

In the state where the paper sheet bundle 45 is pressed, the mounting table 25 is driven in the same manner as described above by the operation of the first drive motor 6, and the clock is rotated through the second support shaft 8, the table post 12d, etc. The tape 28b starts to rotate in the direction, and the tape 28b is wound around the bundle of paper sheets 45 together with the respective clamping plates 24, and the mounting table 2
5 rotates approximately two times to complete winding of the tape 28b, and then continues to rotate and reaches the tape bonding position.
The heater cutter part 3 is heated by a drive motor (not shown).
8 turns clockwise, and this heater cutter part 38
As the heater arm 39 and the tape guide 28a connected to the heater arm 39 via the connecting plate 44 rotate together, the heater 41 moves the tape 2 to the back side of one of the fastening plates 24.
8b is pressed into temporary bonding state. In FIG. 5A, each member except the solenoid 43 in this state is shown by dashed lines. That is, heater arm 3
9', spring member 40', heater 41', cutter 4
2', the connecting member 44', and the clamping plate 24' are shown in their respective positional relationships in a temporarily bonded state. Note that the tape 28b is at a position 28b' and is cut along the operating locus l of the cutter. That is, the cutter body 42' protrudes due to the suction drive of the solenoid 43 (the moved state is not shown) in the direction of the arrow, so that a tension is created between the tape guide 28a' and the heater 41'. The tape 28b' is put into a tensioned state by being pressed by the tape 41'.) The tape 28b' is cut. At the same time as this cutting operation ends, the solenoid 43 is brought into a non-driven state, and the cutter body 42 is controlled to retreat. On the other hand, the heater 41 is
Even in this state of cutting the tape, it reaches the cut end of the tape while slidingly contacting the tape 28b due to the biasing force of the spring member 40, and thermal bonding is performed up to the cut end of the tape (see FIG. 5B). Thereafter, the heater cutter section 38 returns to its original position, and the horizontal banding of the tape on the bundle of paper sheets 45 is completed. The tape heater cutting process is controlled so that the heater 41 presses the tape 28b' on the clamping plate 24 at the same time as the tape 28b is wound around the paper bundle 45. Furthermore, the cutter body 42 is attached almost simultaneously with the temporary adhesion by the heater 41.
is controlled to cut the tape 28b'. Therefore, no interruption of machine movement takes place during these steps.

Furthermore, even after the above-mentioned horizontal belt hanging work is completed,
The mounting table 25 continues to rotate until the surface of the bundle plate 33 of the paper sheet rotation mechanism 30 and the bundle direction of the paper sheet bundle 45 are parallel (that is, the original position). The rotation of the mounting table 25 is stopped by the operation of a detector (not shown). Next, the clamping state by each clamping plate 24 is such that the second drive motor 12 rotates in the opposite direction, so that the elevator lever 11 moves slightly upward, and the second support shaft 8 slightly returns to its original position. It is controlled to hold the bundle of paper sheets 45 in a weakly clamped state.

Next, when the third drive motor 12a is driven in the above-described state in which the paper sheet bundle 45 is being held, the table post 12d is raised via the cam 12b and the connecting lever 12c, and the table post 12d is moved up via the slide rod 57 to the mounting table. 25 rises higher than the upper end of each clamping plate 24. As a result, each clamping plate 24 that was weakly holding the bundle of paper sheets 45 placed in a horizontally oblong shape on the mounting table 25 before the lifting operation does not have a structure that allows the clamping plate 24 to move upward. For,
As the paper sheet bundle 45 rises higher than each clamping plate 24 together with the mounting table 25, the paper sheet bundle 45 acts to slip through between the paper sheet bundle 45 and the tape 28b, and in this state, the above-mentioned Second drive motor 12
By further rotating in the opposite direction, the second support shaft 8, which had been pushed down, completely returns to its original position.
Furthermore, with the return of the second support shaft 8, each clamping plate 24 is also released from the clamping by the second roller 21.
Due to the action of the spring 23a wound around the holding shaft 23, the holding shaft 23 is returned from the pressed position against the bundle of paper sheets 45 to the original released position.

When the drive motor 31b' is then driven in the state in which the mounting table 25 is raised, one of the holding arms 31 is operated in the closing direction as described above via the cam member and the engagement member (not shown), and the corresponding The other holding arm 31 also operates in the same manner through the other gear 32 that meshes with the gear 32 that is coaxial with the holding arm 31, and each holding arm 31 operates to close its arm, so that the One side of the paper sheet bundle 45 is held between a pair of bundle plates 33 .

When the bundle plate 33 reaches the clamping state, the third drive motor 12a is driven again, and the cam 12
The table post 12d starts to descend via the connection lever 12c and the table post 12d, and the mounting table 25 also begins to descend.
is directly driven, the drive motor 31 is coaxial with the gear 32 of the holding arm 31.
The freely rotatable cam member to which the rotation of b' is transmitted drives the link 37 that engages with the cam member after a required time delay, and the crank rod is rotated using the end 36a of the connection point with the link 37 as a fulcrum. 36
When the rod is driven in its longitudinal direction, the amount of movement of this rod is converted into a rotational movement in the crank portion 35, and the amount of change causes the bundle plate 33 to rotate through 90 degrees via the shaft 34. In this case, one bundle plate 33 is forcibly rotated, and the other bundle plate 33
is in a state where it is free to rotate, so when the bundle plates 33 are rotated, the bundle of paper sheets 45 held by the pair of bundle plates 33 is simultaneously forced to remain in the clamped state. When the cam member (not shown) is rotated by the drive motor 31b', one rotation, that is, one cycle of operation of the cam member (not shown) by the drive motor 31b' is completed. , the drive motor 31b' stops.

That is, when the cam member 31b'' rotates once and returns to its original position, the other cam member on the gear 32 side, which is rotating synchronously via a rotation transmission member (not shown), also returns to its original starting position. As a result, the holding arm 31 opens its arms and releases the holding state for the paper sheet bundle 45, so that the paper sheet 45 changes its state from horizontally elongated to vertically elongated and is placed on the waiting stand. 25 and held in a vertical belt hanging position.

Hereinafter, the tape hanging state will be similar to the above-mentioned horizontal band hanging, and a detailed description will be omitted here and will be briefly described. When the bundle of paper sheets 45 is placed on the mounting table 25, the bundle of paper sheets 45 is held upright by each clamping plate 24 as described above.
Once lightly clamped, the centering arm 51 performs a centering operation, and then each clamping plate 24 strongly clamps the sheet bundle 45, and tapes and tapes in the same manner as described above. By continuing to perform operations such as gluing, vertical banding is completed. After this tape is hung vertically, the clamping pressure of each clamping plate 24 is slightly loosened as described above, and when the mounting table 25 rises again higher than the upper end of each clamping plate 24, the paper sheet Similar bundle 4
5 is released from the connection with each clamping plate 24, and the mounting table 25 is lowered and returned to its original position, thereby completing a series of banding operations, and paper sheets that have been horizontally and vertically hung. The bundle 45 can be taken out as is.

g. Effects of the invention A rotatably provided mounting table, a pair of clamping plates arranged on this mounting base, a heater that elastically contacts the back surface of this clamping plate, and a rotary movement that supports this heater. a control means having a heater arm, a cutter body rotatably provided coaxially with the heater arm, a solenoid for operating the cutter body, and a control means for guiding a banding tape to a rotating bundle of paper sheets. It consists of a rotatable tape guide and a connecting plate that connects the tape guide and the heater arm.
Since the tape guide is rotated in conjunction with the rotation of the heater arm, the tape can be temporarily bonded by the heater at a point where the angle between the bundle of paper sheets and the tape is constant, and fluctuations in the pressing force of the heater can be avoided. There is no melting of the tape due to the adhesive, and by operating the cutter during temporary adhesion, it is possible to leave a predetermined length of unadhered part, so it is possible to avoid unsightly appearance due to unevenness of the unadhered part of the tape, or There is no such thing as insufficient adhesion.
