Description

[Detailed description of the invention] [Industrial field of application] The present invention is a bill separator that separates mixed bills and coins. The present invention relates to a dissimilar ticket extraction device for a ticket/coin separator that takes out tickets.

[Conventional technology]

Conventionally, in a ticket/coin separator, a storage chamber for temporarily holding separated bills is provided with a shutter that opens downwards between the storage chamber and a receiving box located at the bottom of the storage chamber. There were multiple viewing windows on the side walls of the frame that surrounded it, and one of the viewing windows was installed in the form of an opening/closing door.

By the separating operation of the bill/coin separator, the separated bills are temporarily held on a shutter in the storage chamber, and the bills held on the shutter are monitored through the viewing window. If a different type of ticket, such as a banknote or a numbered ticket from another company, is found among the tickets,
I opened the viewing window door, reached into the storage compartment, and groped around to find the different types of tickets and remove them.

[Problem that the invention attempts to solve]

In the conventional ticket/coin separator as described above, it is not easy to distinguish different types of tickets, such as banknotes and numbered tickets from other companies, from among the tickets stored in the storage chamber by looking through the viewing window. There was a problem in which tickets of different types were also stored in the receiving box when the shutter was opened. In addition, since the user puts his/her hand into the storage chamber to take out the different types of tickets, it is not easy to sort and take out the different types of tickets, and therefore time is wasted in taking out the different types of tickets.

The present invention was developed in view of the above-mentioned points, and is a ticket coin that can easily distinguish different types of tickets from among tickets, easily sort and take out these different types of tickets, and reduce the time spent on these types of tickets. The object of the present invention is to provide a device for taking out different types of bills from a separator.

[Means for solving problems]

The present invention receives bills B and coins C in a mixed state, separates the bills B and coins C by the airflow of the blower 28, and separates the bills B from the storage chamber 7 of the frame 9.
In the bill/coin separator 1, which is configured to store the bills and coins in the receiving box 8 after temporarily storing them inside the box, a drawer frame body 32 with an open upper and lower surface is disposed between the storage chamber 7 and the receiving box 8 so as to be freely drawn out. A drawer plate 38 that closes the lower opening of the drawer frame 32 is provided at the lower part of the drawer frame 32 so as to be freely drawn out, and when the drawer frame 32 and the drawer plate 38 are inserted into the frame 9, Drawer frame body 3
