Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a paper sheet counting machine, and more particularly to a paper sheet counting machine that prints the counted value on a wrapping paper product at the end of counting.

Conventionally, early paper sheet counting machines held paper sheets bundled with a band in a holder, and suctioned the sheets one by one using a suction device installed in a rotating cylinder and turned them over one by one. When counting is performed and the counted value matches a predetermined set value, the holder is opened and the bundle of paper sheets is taken out, and if the counted value and the set value do not match, the If the holder is not opened and a reset signal is not given, the mismatched bundle of paper sheets cannot be removed, and thereby the stack of paper sheets that match the set value and the bundle of mismatched paper sheets are sorted. Ta.

Furthermore, in addition to the above-mentioned device, a stamping device is installed to stamp a confirmation stamp on the wrapping of paper sheets or a seal between names to identify the confirming person when the counted value matches the set value. Something was also developed.

In any case, with such paper sheet counting machines, after the counting is completed, the counting results are displayed on the display device so that they can be visually checked, but if there is a discrepancy in the counting, the holder must be reset and the sheet stack must be When the paper sheet is removed from the holder, the above-mentioned display is also reset, which causes the following inconvenience when reviewing a large stack of paper sheets.

In other words, if excess/deficit bundles of paper sheets are confused with uncounted bundles of paper sheets, it becomes impossible to determine whether they have been counted or not because there is no way to distinguish between them. There was also the fear that efficiency would be lowered by having to count twice.

Furthermore, even if the operator were to write some kind of symbol on the excess/deficiency paper sheet bundle at the end of counting, the operator would have to do so each time, which would be very troublesome and inefficient.

This invention was made in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and its purpose is to print the counted value on the band of the bundle of paper sheets to confirm that the counting has been completed, and to To provide a paper sheet counting machine which can also judge whether a bundle of sheets has a desired number of sheets and can accurately grasp the number of excess or shortage of sheets.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be explained in detail based on the drawings.

In the figure, reference numeral 1 denotes a rotating cylinder unit, and this rotating cylinder unit 1 rotates while revolving around five suction units 3 installed on a rotating cylinder 2, and generates a vacuum (not shown). The suction port 3a formed in the suction unit 3 by a pump is configured to suction and turn over paper sheets one by one, and the suction unit 3 is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the rotary cylinder 2. Detection piece 4 such as a piece of iron at the position corresponding to...
... is provided.

A holder 5 for holding a bundle of paper sheets A bound by a band B is disposed near the rotary tube unit 1.

When the bundle of paper sheets A is placed on the holder 5, the holder 5 rotates around the shaft 5a toward the suction unit 3, so that the bundle of paper sheets A is clamped by the paper presser rod 6. There is.

Further, a detector 7 is disposed near the outer periphery of the detection piece 4 of the rotary cylinder unit 1, and outputs a count detection signal a of paper sheets by the detection piece 4.

Furthermore, a printing device 8 is arranged below the holder 5.

In this printing device 8, a printing nozzle 9 of an inkjet printer, a dot printer, etc., which selects and prints a numerical value (number) corresponding to the counted value on the bundle of paper sheets A, is connected to a printer operating unit 10, and this printer A printer control section 11 is connected to the operating section 10, and the printing nozzle 9 is operated for printing in response to a control signal from the printer control section 11.

Further, a gate 12 is connected to the printer control section 11 .

This gate 12 is configured such that when a mode signal e from a print mode selection device 13 is input, the gate 12 is opened and a counting end signal d is outputted to the printer control section 11.

Further, a counting circuit 14 is connected to the printer control section 11.

This counting circuit 14 receives the detection signal a from the detector 7, and uses this as a counting signal C to the printer control unit 1.
1.

The printing mode selection device 13 outputs a mode signal e to the gate 12 indicating whether or not printing is to be performed or other functions such as checking and addition are to be performed by selecting a button or the like.

Next, the operation of the embodiment configured as described above will be explained.

In advance, press a button (not shown) on the print mode selection device 13.
, the printing nozzle 9 outputs a mode signal e for printing on the bundle B of the bundle of paper sheets A, and the gate 12 is opened (.

After this, when the uncounted paper sheet bundle A is placed on the holder 5,
The holder 5 rotates and transfers the paper sheet bundle A to the rotary cylinder unit 1.
The paper is brought into contact with the suction unit 3 and held by the paper presser rod 6.

When the paper sheet bundle A comes into contact with the suction unit 3 in this way, the vacuum pump (not shown) operates and the rotary cylinder 2 rotates.
The suction units 3... suction the paper sheets one by one and turn them over.

At this time, the detection piece 4 provided on the outer peripheral surface of the rotary cylinder 2
. Ru.

When the sheet bundle A is counted in this manner and the counting operation is completed, the rotary tube 2 is stopped by the counting end signal d, and the counting end signal d is input to the printer control section 11.

Then, a control signal is sent from the printer control section 11 to the printer operating section 10, whereby the printing nozzle 9 prints a numerical value (number) corresponding to the count value on the banding B of the paper sheet bundle A.
to be printed.

When the seal B of the bundle of paper sheets A is printed in this way, the holder 5 rotates away from the rotary cylinder unit 1, and the clamping of the bundle of paper sheets A is released. The paper sheet bundle A is extracted from the holder 5 and the counting operation is completed.

As explained in detail above, the present invention is equipped with a printing device that selects a numerical value corresponding to the counted value at the end of counting and prints it on the banding of the bundle of paper sheets. By recording this, it is possible to directly distinguish between uncounted bundles of paper sheets and counted bundles of paper sheets, and also to determine whether the counted bundles of paper sheets match the desired number of sheets. In addition, if the number of sheets does not match the desired number, it is possible to accurately determine the number of sheets in the stack.
Therefore, there is an excellent effect that post-processing work (work such as extracting or replenishing paper sheets from a bundle of excess or insufficient paper sheets) can be easily performed.
