Description

[Detailed description of the device]

[0001]

[Industrial applications]

 The present invention relates to a band-shaped wrapping paper of a predetermined length, which is wrapped around a predetermined number of coins to be wrapped.

[0002]

[Prior art]

 Conventionally, for example, a coin wrapping machine described in Japanese Patent Publication No. 1-34846 is known. This type of coin wrapping machine collects a predetermined number of coins (generally 50 coins) and then holds them between three rollers called wrapping rollers. While rotating the rollers, a strip of wrapping paper is wrapped around the coins. Coins are wrapped by winding the upper and lower ends of the wrapped wrapping paper with a winding needle.

The supply of the wrapping paper is performed by feeding the strip-shaped wrapping paper pulled out from the wrapping paper roll by the supply roller to the wrapping portion along the non-linear wrapping paper guide passage, and then sending the wrapping paper to the wrapping portion. When the leading edge of the paper is gripped between the three rollers that rotate and the accumulated coins that are nipped and rotated by these rollers, a sudden tension is applied to the wrapping paper, and the wrapping paper is placed under the tension. It is designed so that it is pressed against a cutter protruding in a V shape in the feeding direction provided on the paper orbit and cut, and the cut wrapping paper piece is wound around the peripheral surface of the accumulated coins.

Further, when a new wrapping paper roll is set or when a wrapping paper roll whose leading end does not project in a V shape in the feeding direction due to cutting with scissors or the like is set, The leading edge of the wrapping paper is sent to the wrapping paper guide passage, and the wrapping paper is pressed against the cutter and cut by pulling the leading edge of the wrapping paper by a manual operation of a staff member, and the leading end is V-shaped in the feeding direction. A piece of wrapping paper that is not in a protruding shape is removed, and the tip of the remaining wrapping paper is made to project in a V shape in the feeding direction.

The reason why the tip of the wrapping paper is made to project in a V shape is that when the wrapping paper is not V-shaped, one end in the width direction of the wrapping paper is gripped first and is slanted. This is because there will be feeding defects and winding defects such as sending to a coin or winding it around a coin at an angle.

[0006]

[Problems to be solved by the device]

 In a conventional coin wrapping machine, a clerk manually pulls the tip of the wrapping paper and cuts it with a cutter in order to make the tip of the wrapping paper project in a V shape. There is a problem that it takes time.

Therefore, the present invention has been made in view of such a point, and the front end portion of the wrapping paper is automatically cut and the cut wrapping paper piece is cut by a simple operation of setting the wrapping paper. It is an object of the present invention to provide a coin wrapping machine that can eliminate the remaining wrapping paper and form the tip of the wrapping paper into a predetermined shape.

When packaging coins, a predetermined number (for example, 50) of coins are accumulated in the accumulating unit, and the accumulated coins C are supplied between the rollers 11 to 13 of the packaging unit 1. In the packaging unit 1, the accumulated coins are nipped and rotated between the rollers 11 to 13.

In this state, the wrapping paper P is sent out by the wrapping paper feeding means 31, 41 of the wrapping paper supply unit 2, and the leading end of the wrapping paper P is sent non-linearly along the guide member 81. It is supplied between the rollers 11 to 13 and the accumulated coin C.

Then, the packaging paper P supplied to the supply unit 1 is wrapped around the peripheral surface of the accumulated coin C. At this time, since the feeding speed of the rollers 11 to 13 to be wound is higher than the feeding speed of the wrapping paper feeding means 31, 41, the wrapping paper P is abruptly pulled and linearly displaced due to the difference in the feeding speeds. It is pressed against the cutter 83 and cut into pieces of wrapping paper of a predetermined length. The leading end of the wrapping paper P that is cut and left by the cutter 83 is formed in a V-shaped projecting shape in the feeding direction.

Then, the upper and lower ends of the wrapping paper piece wound around the peripheral surface of the accumulated coin C are wound and wrapped by a winding needle (not shown).
