Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent the occurrence of a faulty turn due to folding of a leaf by moving a passbook by rotating a roller while holding a movable panel by a holding means. CONSTITUTION:When a roller 81 is rotated in the direction of an arrow for turning a leaf, the leaf is curved and thereby a movable panel 9 is pushed and rotated upward. When curving of the leaf increases and the leaf is sprung up above the roller 81 at last, it is detected by a detecting means 10 that the leaf is sprung up, and based on a detection output of the means, a holding means 11 holds the movable panel 9 at a position whereat the leaf is not pressed on the roller 81 by the movable panel 9 under its own weight, i.e. at a position whereat the panel is held above the roller 81 at a prescribed space therefrom. In this state rollers 81 and 82 are rotated to move a passbook 5 in the direction of turning the leaf. Since the leaf sprung up is not pressed on the roller 81 by the movable panel 9 under its own weight, it does not happen that the leaf is folded, the occurrence of an error in turning can be prevented, and thus the leaf can be turned in a stable manner.

Automatic transaction devices such as TellerMachine (hereinafter referred to as ATM).

and teller-operated book-keeping machines at counters are widely used.

These devices often have a page-turning function in the passbook printing mechanism, which simplifies operations for customers or tellers, but folds are likely to occur due to poor page-turning, so there is a method to prevent this. is desired.

[Conventional technology]

The conventional method will be explained below with reference to FIGS. 4 to 7.

The same reference numerals refer to the same objects throughout the design.

As shown in FIG. 4, the bookkeeping machine includes a device body 2 equipped with an insertion slot 1 into which a passbook 5a is inserted horizontally, a keyboard 3 for inputting customer's account number and transaction details, and an operation process. It consists of a display 4 on which contents etc. are displayed. The device main body 2 is connected to a computer center (not shown) via a line.

Fig. 5 is an internal side view of the bookkeeping mechanism, and in the figure, 6
A indicates a conveyance path, 7 indicates a printer section, and 8 indicates a page turning section.

Therefore, when the teller inserts the bankbook 5a from the insertion slot 1 in the direction of the arrow, the bankbook 5a is conveyed along the conveyance path 6a by rollers R1 and R2, the pages and printable lines are confirmed by the reading sensor S1, and the bankbook 5a is set in the printer section 7. be done. Then, if you use keyboard 3 to input, display 4 will appear.
is displayed, and when the user confirms this and presses the confirmation box, communication with the computer center is performed, and the transaction data is printed on the bankbook 5a by the printer section 7. When the last line of the page is printed during printing, the passbook 5a moves to the page turning section 8.
The page is turned over, and the printer unit 7 continues printing again. Upon completion of printing, the passbook 5a is ejected into the insertion slot 1 in the direction of arrow B.

Next, details of page turning will be explained with reference to FIG.

As shown in the figure, the page turning unit 8 includes rollers 81a, 82a, 83, 84, . A movable panel 9a forming part of the upper plate 60 of the conveyance path 6a and provided coaxially with the roller 83 so as to be freely rotatable in the upper direction of the conveyance path 6a, a pressurer 85 provided between the rollers 82a and 84. A pair of separators 86a, 8 provided around the shaft 92a of the roller 81a from above the roller 81a.
6b, a plunger magnet (hereinafter referred to as PM) 89. which moves the pressure 85 up and down via the lever 87;
A PM91 that opens and closes the separators 86a and 86b via a lever 90, a turning operation detection sensor S2 that detects that the page to be turned has expanded. It is composed of a flip-up detection sensor S3 that detects when a page is flipped up.

In the normal state, the movable panel 9a is prevented from rotating upward by a stopper mechanism (not shown), and the rotation prevention is released when the page is turned over.

The rollers 81a and 83 are each connected to a motor MLM2,
The rollers 82a and 84 are pinch rollers that are opened/closed by excitation/release of PM (not shown).
In addition, the rollers 81 are

83 is pressed.

The pressure 85 is normally located below the conveyance path 6a, and is raised by the excitation of the PM 89 to push up the bankbook 5a from below.

Further, the separators 86a and 86b are normally closed as shown in the figure, but when the PM91 is energized, the lower ends are opened as shown by the two-dot chain line in the figure, and the curved portions are located outside the roller 81a. Separators 86a and 86b are arranged so that after a page has been flipped up by roller 81a, if roller 81a rotates in the opposite direction while the page is in contact with roller 81a, the page will fall under roller 81a due to friction with roller 81a, which is made of rubber or the like. (caught up and bent)
In order to prevent this from occurring, a function is provided to hold the turned page so that it does not come into contact with the roller 81a.

Note that the separator 86b is used for page return, which will be described later, and the rollers, pressure, levers, PM, and sensors used for page return are connected to rollers 81a and 82.
They are provided at symmetrical positions with axis a.

With this configuration, when the passbook 5a is sent in the six directions of the arrows to the turning position shown in FIG. It stops in a pinched state.

Next, as shown in FIG. 7(b), rollers 82a, 8
3 and 84 do not rotate, but the roller 81a rotates in the direction of the arrow, and at the same time, the PM 89 is excited and the pressure 85 pushes up the passbook 5a. The friction between the roller 81a and the page surface starts the page turning operation, and the passbook 5a is curved,
The turned page expands further. The movable panel 9a is pushed up by the bulge of the page and rotated in the direction of arrow C.

When the turning motion detection sensor S2 detects the swelling, as shown in FIG. 7(C), the PM 89 is de-energized, the pressure 85 is lowered, the rollers 82a and 84 are heated, and the page is turned over. The page remains bulged, and the next page returns to a flat state.

Next, as shown in FIG. 7(d), when the rollers 82a and 84 are closed and the roller 81a is rotated in the direction of the arrow,
The bulging page was turned over even more and finally lifted up. The splash detection sensor S3 detects this, and P M91
is excited and the separators 86a and 86b open,
The contact between the flipped up page and the roller 81a is separated.

Therefore, as shown in FIG. 7(e), rollers 81a, 82
a.

83 and 84, the bankbook 5a is transferred in the direction of arrow B, and the flipped up page is pushed by the separator 86a and turned over. When the page turning is completed, the movable panel 9a returns to its original position, and the PM 91 is de-energized and the separators 86a and 86b close.

The turned pages are confirmed by the reading sensor S, and if there is a double feed in which two or more pages are turned over, the rollers 81a and 82a are moved in the opposite direction to the page turning operation on the left side in the figure. The page is returned.

Printing is continued on the passbook 5a whose pages have been automatically turned over in this manner.

[Problem to be solved by the invention]

According to the above conventional method, the page turning mechanism is equipped with a mechanism to prevent pages from folding, but the page flipped up during page turning is located between the movable panel and the separate rake, causing the page to move. The passbook moves in the direction of one side while being pressed against the separator due to the weight of the panel, so at the beginning of the movement, the page being turned is guided by the separator and moves upward in order to stand up. Therefore, there is a problem that buckling and folding occurs easily at the lower position, and as the page moves further, the folded portion gets caught up in the rollers, resulting in defective page folding.

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a page turning mechanism that can prevent turning defects that cause page folds.

[Means to solve the problem]

FIG. 1 is a diagram showing the principle configuration of the present invention.

In the figure, 5 is a bankbook, 6 is a conveyance path, 81.82 is a roller, 9 forms a part of the upper plate of the conveyance path 6, the tip is a free end, and the other end is the upper plate outside the conveyance path 6. A movable panel 10 is rotatably supported in the direction and rotates by being pushed by the bulge of the page when the passbook 5 is turned over. The detection means 11 is based on the detection output of the detection means 10,
This is a holding means that holds the movable panel 9 in a position where the movable panel 9 rotated by being pushed by the bulge of the page does not press the page against the roller 81 due to its own weight.

Therefore, the movable panel 9 is held by the holding means 11 while the rollers 81 and 82 are rotated to move the string 5.

[Effect]

First, when the roller 81 rotates in the direction of the arrow to turn the page, the page swells and the movable panel 9 is pushed and rotated upward.

When the bulge of the page increases and the page is finally flipped up above the rollers 81, the detection means 10 detects that the page has been flipped up, and the detection output determines the position where the movable panel 9 does not press the page against the rollers 81 due to its own weight. That is, the holding means 11 holds the movable panel 9 at a position above the roller 81 at a predetermined interval, and while holding the movable panel 9, the rollers 81 and 82 are rotated to move the passbook 5 in the direction of turning the pages. As a result, the flipped-up page is not pressed against the roller 81 by the weight of the movable panel 9, so the page is not folded, the occurrence of a winding failure can be prevented, and stable page turning can be achieved.

〔Example〕

Hereinafter, one embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3. The same reference numerals indicate the same objects throughout the figures.

In FIG. 2, parts corresponding to those in FIG. 1 are shown surrounded by a dashed line.

What is different from the conventional example explained in FIG. 6 is that FIG. 2 has a lever mechanism 118 instead of separators 86a, 86b and movable panel 9a. Also, the movable panel 9b is provided so that the movable panel 9b does not touch the page being turned over.

That is, as shown in FIG. 2, in the page turning section 8a, the movable panels 9b and 9c constitute a part of the conveyance path 6a,
One end is a free end, and the other end is coaxially and rotatably supported by rollers 83a and 83b, respectively. Movable panels 9b, 9
Tip protrusions 90a and 90b are vertically located near the tip of c.
, horizontally retaining portions 91a and 91b, and shielding portions 92a and 92b having widths that shield the sensor 54°S5 and the pair of sensors S4' and S5', respectively. Sensor S4. S5. S4' and S5' are movable panels 9b
, 9c, and are connected to the main control section 12, respectively.

Further, the roller 81a is connected to the motor M1, and the roller 83a,
83b is connected to the motor M2, and the motors M1 and M2 are controlled by the rotation control section 13.

A lever mechanism 11a is provided above the roller 81a, and the lever mechanism 11a has levers 15a and 15b whose corners are rotatably supported by fulcrums 14a and 14b, respectively, and lever 1.
It consists of a PM 16 and a spring 17 connected to one end of each of 5a and 15b, respectively. Levers 15a, 15b
At the lower end of the other end in FIG. 1, there are tip projections 90a of movable panels 9b and 9c.

Notches 18a, 18b with which the movable panels 90b are normally engaged to prevent upward rotation of the movable panels 9b, 9c, and a protrusion 19a located above the notches 18a, 18b.
19b is formed.

The PM16 is connected to the main control unit 12, is excited at the start of page turning, and is activated by the sensor S5 when the page expands to a predetermined position due to the page turning operation. The excitation is canceled by the detection cancellation of S5'.

The protrusions 19a and 19b are connected to the sensor S5. PM16 is de-energized by de-detection of S5', and levers 15a, 1
When 5b returned to its original position, the engaging portions 91a of the movable panels 9b and 9c had been rotated upward due to page turning.

Since it has such a configuration, the operation will be explained next with reference to FIG.

(2) When the passbook 5a stops at the page turning position, the tip projection 90a of the movable panel 9b is engaged with the notch 18a of the lever 15a.

■First, the PM16 is excited and the lever 15a moves as shown in Figure 3 (
As shown in a), the movable panel 9b rotates in the direction of the arrow.
The engaging part 91a of the lever 15a is disengaged from the notch part 18a of the lever 15a, and the initial page turning operations such as the upward and downward movement of the pressure 85 and the opening and closing of the roller 82 cause the page to be turned to swell and the movable panel 9b to be pushed. arrow E
The shielding portion 92a shields the sensor S4, and the start of the rotation is detected.

(2) When the bulge increases and the movable panel 9b rotates to a predetermined position, the shielding portion 92a shields the sensor S4 and the sensor S5, and the inflation is completed, as shown in FIG. 3(6).

(2) When the bulging page is flipped up by the rotation of the roller 81a, the page push-up blade that was pushing up the movable panel 9b disappears, the movable panel 9b rotates downward, and the shielding of the sensor S5 is released. This will detect page bounces.

■ Then, the excitation of PM16 is released, and the sensor S4.S shown in Fig. 3 (C) and (d) ((d) is omitted in (C)).
5), the lever 15a returns to its original position.

■The page comes into diagonal contact with the upper part of the roller 81a, and on the other hand, the engaging portion 91a of the movable panel 9b engages with the protrusion 19a of the lever 15a, causing the movable panel 9b to return to rotation in the direction of arrow F. prevent.

(2) Then, when the passbook 5a is transferred in the turning direction, that is, in the direction of arrow B, by the transfer rotation of the rollers 81a and 83a, the pages are turned over.

(2) When the bankbook 5a leaves the page turning section 8a, the PM 16 is excited by detection by a sensor (not shown), and the holding of the movable panel 9b by the lever portion 15a is released. Then, when the movable panel 9b returns to the normal position, the detection of the sensor S4 is canceled, the excitation of the PM 16 is canceled, and the notch 18a of the lever 15a engages with the tip protrusion 90a of the movable panel 9b, causing the movable panel 9b to move. Hold down.

In addition, in the case of return turning, the movable panel 9C and the lever 1
Page turning is similarly performed on the 5b side.

In this way, the page is turned over, and when the page is turned by this transfer, the page is only in contact with the roller 81a and is not pressed, so the surface of the roller 81a is smooth and the page is not folded and rolled into the roller 81a. It never occurs. Further, a lever 15a serves as a stopper mechanism for holding the movable panel in a horizontal position.

Since the notches 18a and 18b of 15b also serve as
The mechanism is simplified and costs can be improved.
