Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention constitutes, for example, a bill processing apparatus applied as a cash management system for a bank store, and is required to convey a bundle of bills classified and counted into a predetermined number to a gripping position. The present invention relates to a paper sheet processing device.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art There is a bill processing apparatus in which a depositing / dispensing machine and a bundling machine are provided adjacent to each other. That is, the depositing / dispensing machine classifies and counts the deposited banknotes according to their denominations and stores them in a safe. When a withdrawal instruction is given, the instructed denomination is taken out of the safe and withdrawn.

When a deposit of a predetermined amount or more is received in the safe of the depositing / dispensing machine, the banknotes classified and counted for every 100 sheets are unloaded from this machine and transported to the adjacent bundling machine. In the bundling machine, the bills of a predetermined amount are received in a stacked state,
In addition, the tape is conveyed to the tape winding mechanism and bundled. In this state, it is stored in the safe, and when instructed, it is dispensed in the form of a banknote bundle.

[0004]

By the way, in the conventional banknote handling apparatus of this type, the banknotes are transported one by one from the depositing / dispensing machine to the bundling machine via the transport path. Therefore, it takes a considerable amount of time to convey a predetermined number of sheets required for bundling, resulting in poor processing efficiency.

Further, it is necessary to arrange the transport path for transporting the bills in a straight line from the depositing / dispensing machine to the bundling machine, which increases the length of the entire processing apparatus. The distance between the depositing port of the depositing / dispensing machine and the stacking box of the bundling machine is increased, and the same operator deposits banknotes into the depositing port and removes the bundled banknotes from the stacking box of the bundling machine. The amount of movement is large, and it can be said that this device is inconvenient to use.

Then, the banknotes are collected at the position immediately before the bundle,
Although the bundles are bundled, the banknotes are likely to be misaligned during the transportation, and an accurate stacked state may not be obtained, so that the bundles may not be reliably gathered.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances. An object of the present invention is to stack sheets of paper to convey the sheets, thereby making it possible to downsize the apparatus, and to convey the laminated state during and during delivery. The present invention intends to provide a paper sheet processing apparatus that continuously obtains a reliable bundle without disturbing the alignment.

On the other hand, the small bundle / small bundle paying machine 3 has a dispensing door 24 for paying small bundles on the upper portion, and the small bundle dispensed can be taken out by opening this door. An occupancy lamp 25 similar to the occupancy lamp of the bill depositing / dispensing unit is arranged near the dispensing door 24. At the upper part of the dispensing door 24, there is an opening / closing lid 26 for exchanging the tape, which is a bundle band.

FIG. 2 is a side view of the small bundle / small bundle payment machine 3. Banknotes are sent to the small bundle / small bundle payment machine 3 from the banknote depositing / dispensing machine 2 shown in FIG. When a banknote bundle is inserted from the banknote deposit / withdrawal machine 2 to the small bundle / small bundle payer 3, the paper sheet processing apparatus according to the present invention processes the banknote.

That is, this processing apparatus includes a small bundle hand mechanism 71 which is a supply means for supplying bills in a stacked state,
The banknotes dispensed from the small bundle hand mechanism 71 are received in a stacked state, and the backup mechanism 72 is a moving means for moving down, and the banknotes are received at the descending position of the backup mechanism 72 and processed in a stacked state. It is provided with a carrier mechanism K which is a transporting means for transporting to the bundle holding mechanism 91 which is a part.

Although the small bundle hand mechanism 71, the backup mechanism 72, and the carrier mechanism K will be described later, the description of the structure necessary for moving the bundled bills after the bundle bundle mechanism 91 is not necessary here. The description is omitted only for the sake of illustration.

The small bundle hand mechanism 71 includes an upper hand unit 71.
It has a two-stage configuration of a and the lower hand unit 71b, and moves to the depositing / dispensing machine 2 to receive a predetermined number of bills classified and counted by the banknote depositing / dispensing machine 2.

The small bundle hand mechanism 71 has a two-stage structure including an upper hand unit 71a and a lower hand unit 71b, and whether the banknote is supplied from the upper stage or the lower stage of the depositing / dispensing machine 2. Can be held.

Upper hand portion 71a and lower hand portion 71b
And are installed on the same base, and they are moved up and down together. These upper and lower hand parts can detect three positions of a bill clamp position, a bill release position, and a standby position by a hand position detection sensor (not shown).

The backup mechanism 72 and the carrier mechanism K are shown in detail in FIG. In FIG. 3, the backup mechanism 72 includes a banknote receiving stand 74 that is vertically driven with respect to a substrate 80 that is vertically installed and a backup clamp mechanism 73. Three groups of an upper banknote receiving position A, a lower banknote receiving position B, and a carrier transfer position C can be detected by a sensor group (not shown).

In the side view shown in the figure, the bill receiving tray 74 is bent in the horizontal direction and the vertical direction to form an L shape. This horizontal portion is a plurality of support claws 74a ... Which have a predetermined interval in the plan view shown in FIGS. 4 and 5,
A banknote is supported on this upper part.

The backup clamp mechanism 73 shown in FIG. 3 includes a backup clamp 82, one end of which is pivotally supported by a pivot 81, and the other end of which is provided with a plurality of pressing claws 82a. As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the pressing claws 82a ... Have the same number as the supporting claws 74a.

In the backup clamp mechanism 73 shown in FIG. 3, the pivot support 81 of the backup clamp 82 is integrally provided with a substantially T-shaped operating plate 83. A first roller 84 and a second roller 85 are provided at positions close to each other on an extended upper end portion of the pivotal support portion 81 of the operation plate 83, and a third roller 86 is provided at an end portion orthogonal to these.

This actuating plate 83 has a tension spring 8
7 is always elastically pulled upward and urged,
Therefore, the backup clamp 82 integrated with this is inclined with the pivot 81 as a fulcrum, and the tip of the pressing claw 82a is always pushed down and biased in the direction in which it comes into contact with the supporting claw 74a.

The operating plate 83 has a stopper plate 8
8 is provided and is driven up and down together with the bill receiving stand 74 and the backup clamp 82. When the first roller 84 rolls on the side of the stopper plate 88 so as to be in the upper banknote receiving position A, the operating plate 83
Is inclined obliquely against the elastic force of the tension spring 87, and therefore the backup clamp 82 is also inclined obliquely.

As shown in FIG. 6, the stopper plate 88 is rotatably supported at its substantially central portion via a pivot portion 89, and the first roller 84 is rotatably joined to this one end portion. It is possible.

A tension spring 89a is pivotally supported on the roller rolling contact side of the pivotally supporting portion 89, while the solenoid 9 is provided at the other end.
The zero operating rod 90a is connected. This operating rod 90a
The stopper plate 88 is rotated based on the projecting and retracting operation of (1), so that the first roller 84 can be engaged and disengaged.

That is, in a state in which the solenoid 90 is not energized and the operating rod 90a projects, the first roller 84 abuts the stopper plate 88 and engages with the operating plate 83, as shown in FIG. 7A. The elastic force of the tension spring 91 is regulated. The operating plate 83 is inclined and is in a released state for bills.

The solenoid 90 is energized to operate the operating rod 90.
When a is retracted, the stopper plate 88 separates from the first roller 84 as shown in FIG. The actuating plate 83 is pulled up by the elastic force of the tension spring 91, and is tilted in the opposite direction via the pivotal support 81 (not shown here) to clamp the bill.

As shown in FIG. 3 again, a drop prevention plate 92 is provided at the upper banknote receiving position A of the substrate 80. The fall prevention plate 92 is pivotally supported rotatably and is hooked by a tension spring 93, so that the clockwise rotation is restricted from the state shown in the figure, but the counterclockwise rotation is prevented. Is free.

A third roller 86 is engaged with the upper end of the fall prevention plate 92 when the operating plate 83 is in an inclined state. (This state is also shown in FIG. 7A.) Then, the third roller 86 tries to rotate the fall prevention plate 92 clockwise, but the rotation of the plate is restricted.

That is, when the banknote receiving tray 74 and the backup clamp 82 are in the upper banknote receiving position A, when the power is cut off, the vertical drive is also cut off, and immediately falls due to gravity, and other It will make it difficult to clear the jam and reset it due to collision with the mechanism.

Therefore, by providing the fall prevention plate 92 and hooking the third roller 86 at the bill receiving position A, the bill receiving stand 74 and the backup clamp 82 are prevented from falling off even if the electricity is cut off. To do.

On the contrary, the backup clamp 82 rises and the third roller 86 abuts against the fall prevention plate 92,
When the turning force is applied in the counterclockwise direction, the plate 92 rotates to allow the roller 86 to pass therethrough.

Such a fall prevention plate 92 is provided not only in the upper banknote receiving position A but also in the lower banknote receiving position B (not shown), and it goes without saying that the same operation is performed.

A raising plate 94 is provided at the carrier transfer position C. This raising plate 94
Has one end pivotally supported and has a tension spring 95.
Is hanging. Therefore, the pull-up plate 94 is free to rotate in the clockwise direction from the state shown in the drawing, but is restricted from rotating in the counterclockwise direction.

The pull-up plate 94 is provided when the bill tray 74 and the backup clamp 82 move up and down.
It is at a position where the second roller 85 provided on the operation plate 83 comes into contact.

These are carrier transfer positions C
The second roller 85 abuts and imparts upward turning force when moving upward from, but the rotation of the plate 94 is restricted and the posture does not change. The second roller 85 is the plate 94
Abutting and moving along the periphery of the.

That is, the backup clamp 82
Is in a closed state in which the banknotes are clamped at the carrier transfer position C, but as they rise, the second rollers 85 cause them to come into contact with the plate 94 and change to a released state.

On the contrary, the backup clamp 82 descends and the second roller 85 raises and abuts on the plate 94,
When the turning force in the clockwise direction is applied to the plate 94, the plate 94 rotates to allow the roller 85 to pass therethrough.

On the other hand, the carrier mechanism K includes the carrier 7
5, a carrier clamp 95 provided on the carrier 75, and a carrying mechanism 96 for carrying and driving the carrier 75 and the carrier clamp 95 to the bundling mechanism 91.

The carrier 75 has bills placed on the upper surface thereof, and a back plate portion 75a is provided upright at the end portion on the side opposite to the conveying direction. To explain, as shown in FIG. 4 and FIG. 8, the carrier 75 has a banknote support portion 97 on the transport direction side, which is composed of a plurality of pieces each having a relatively wide area and supports the banknotes. This banknote support 9
The back plate portion 75a is erected on the end portion of the sheet 7 on the side opposite to the conveying direction.

On the other hand, a plurality of carrier clamps 95 are arranged at a position different from at least the back plate portion 75a. That is, the carrier clamp 95 is pivotally displaced so as to clamp the banknotes on the banknote support section 97 as described later, but it is provided so as to be displaced from the back plate section 75a, so that they should come into contact with each other. There is no.

Further, the carrier clamp 95 is set to have a position different from that of the backup clamp 82 of the backup mechanism 72, and does not come into contact with the backup clamp 82 that has moved to the bill transfer position C.

As shown in FIGS. 9 and 10, the carrier clamp 95 includes a pair of parallel levers 97a and 9a.
It is continuously provided at the end of 7b. The levers 97a and 97b are rotatably supported by a base 98 integrally provided on the carrier 75.

Only one lever 97a has a tension spring 99.
Although it is hooked to the base 98 via the, the lever ends are connected to the carrier clamp 95, so that they simultaneously rotate. The end of the lever 97a projects downward from the base 98, and the bearing 100 is provided at the lower end.

As shown in FIG. 9, this bearing 100
In the state where the carrier 75 is in the banknote transfer position, the carrier 75 contacts the stopper 101, and the rotational biasing force of the tension spring 99 is regulated. That is, the carrier clamp 95 rotates via the levers 97a and 97b in the direction away from the bill, and releases the bill.

As shown in FIG. 10, when the carrier 75 is transported by the transport mechanism 96, the elastic force of the tension spring 99 is freely applied to the lever 97a to incline it. Then, if the bearing 100 is at a position completely separated from the stopper 101, the levers 97a and 97b and the carrier clamp 95 are tilted to the maximum extent, and the tip of the carrier clamp 95 elastically abuts the bill. To clamp.

Since the backup mechanism 72 moves the bills downward from the bill receiving positions A and B at the upper part to the bill receiving position C at the lower part, the backup clamp 82 collapses the alignment of the stacked bills. Clamp with a relatively light elastic force that does not float and does not float.

On the other hand, the carrier mechanism K conveys a relatively long distance from the banknote transfer position C to the bundling mechanism 91, and the carrier clamp 95 is arranged so as to surely align the banknotes stacked in the meantime. Clamp with strong elasticity. This clamping force is naturally larger than the clamping force of the backup clamp 82.

The transfer mechanism 96 is configured as shown in FIG. A chain 104 is spanned over a pair of gears 102 and 103 provided facing each other in a horizontal direction so as to be endlessly movable, and one gear 103 has a drive motor 1
A driven gear 107 that meshes with the drive gear 106 of No. 05 is provided in an overlapping manner.

The chain 104 is provided with a roller 108, which moves as the chain 104 travels, while the carrier 75 is provided with a lock portion 109. As shown in FIG. 12, the lock portion 109 has a lock 110 pivotally supported at one end, and the other free end is locked to the lock plate 111. An inverted U-shaped cutout groove 112 into which the roller 108 can be inserted and removed is provided on the side surface of the lock portion 109.

As shown in FIG. 13, as the chain 104 travels, the roller 108 is inserted into the notch groove 112 and abuts on the lock 110 to push it up. Lock 1
The tip end portion of 10 is disengaged from the lock plate 111, so that the carrier 75 can be transported and moves together with the roller 108.

Next, an example of a transaction using the above bill processing apparatus will be shown. First, when making a deposit transaction, the cash to be deposited is set in the slot 11 of the banknote depositing / dispensing machine 2. Next, a capture start operation is performed from the tellers machine 1a (1b). By doing this, the banknote depositing / dispensing machine 2 starts counting the banknotes, and after the counting is completed, the counting result is displayed on the tellers machine 1.
a (1b). An operator who is performing a deposit operation inputs deposit data such as a slip amount and an account number by using the operation keys of the tellers machine 1a (1b) during bill counting. If the count result from the bill depositing / dispensing machine 2 matches the slip amount, the operator depresses the completion button to complete the deposit transaction. In addition, the transaction content is the Terra's Machine 1a (1
Recorded by a journal printer installed in b).

Next, in the case of the withdrawal operation, the operator inputs the withdrawal data such as the withdrawal amount and the account number from the tellers machine 1a (1b) and presses the start key. The banknote deposit / withdrawal machine 2 conveys banknotes from the safes 48a to 48d to the dispensing port 11 in accordance with a dispensing request from the tellers machine 1a (1b). If the withdrawal request is a small bundle, the small bundle / small bundle payment machine 3
Will be withdrawn in a bundle.

On the other hand, the small bundle / small bundle payment machine 3 receives a bill from the bill depositing / dispensing machine 2. At this time, the receiving operation is performed with the banknote depositing / dispensing machine 2 in a state in which a specified number of banknotes, for example, 100, are stacked in a stacking unit (not shown) of the banknote dispensing / dispensing machine 2.
From the small bundle / small bundle payment machine 3, an OK signal and an upper or lower signal are sent. According to this signal, the small bundle / small bundle payment machine 3 sets the upper or lower banknote receiving positions A and B in the backup mechanism 72.

After that, the small bundle hand mechanism 71 waiting at the standby position moves to the bill clamp position and clamps the bill. Then, the banknotes are dragged to the banknote release position, and the backup mechanism 72 waits for the banknote bundle to be clamped.

At the designated upper banknote receiving position A or lower banknote receiving position B, the banknote receiving stand 74 of the backup mechanism 72 supports the banknote clamped by the hand mechanism 71, while energizing the solenoid 90 to operate the operating plate. Backup clamp 8 with 83
Rotate 2. That is, the backup clamp 82
Clamps the bill on the bill tray 74.

After that, the small bundle hand mechanism 71 releases the bill and returns to the standby position. Therefore, since the small bundle hand mechanism 71 clamps the bill from the depositing / dispensing machine 2 to the bill release position, the alignment of the bill is maintained. Since the bills are clamped even when the bills are transferred from the small bundle hand mechanism 71 to the backup mechanism 72, the alignment of the bills need not be disturbed, and there is no room for this dropout.

The backup mechanism 72 starts moving from the bill receiving position and moves down to the carrier delivering position C. Naturally, the clamped state of the banknotes does not change, and therefore there is no room for the banknotes to drop or be displaced.

With the backup mechanism 72 descending and moving to the carrier transfer position C, the bills are placed on the carrier 75 waiting here. Then, the transport mechanism 96 operates to transport the carrier 75 to the bundling mechanism 91, but at the start of this transport, the backup clamp 82 still clamps the bill.

On the other hand, when the carrier 75 moves forward, the bills are pushed by the back plate portion 75a and moved. The backup clamp 82 is in sliding contact with the bill, and the clamp for the bill continues.

When the carrier 75 advances by a certain distance, the carrier clamp 95 rotates to clamp the bill. At this time, since the pressing claws 82a forming the backup clamp 82 and the carrier clamp 95 are in different positions and are in a nested state, there is no problem in each clamp.

When the carrier 75 further advances, the backup clamp 82 is separated from the bill, and only the carrier clamp 95 serves as a clamp. That is, when the banknotes are transferred from the backup mechanism 72 to the carrier mechanism K, the banknotes are always clamped, so that the aligned state of the banknotes can be maintained.

Further, since the carrier clamp 95 continuously clamps the bills while the carrier 75 is guided to the bundling mechanism 91, there is no room for dropping or misaligning the bills, and proper alignment is maintained. Be done. In the bundling mechanism 91, since the banknotes that are stacked and correctly aligned are bunched, a tight bunch with a tight diaphragm is obtained.

[0070]

As described above, according to the present invention, paper sheets are stacked and fed in a clamped state, the fed paper sheets are clamped and received, and are vertically moved as they are. At this moving position, the paper sheets are clamped and received, and are conveyed horizontally as they are to be bundled. Therefore, by stacking the paper sheets and conveying them in the vertical and horizontal directions, the conveyance path is linear. The size of the device can be reduced, and the stacking of paper sheets can be continued during conveyance and delivery, and a reliable grip can be obtained without disturbing the alignment and improving reliability. Has the effect.
