Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a coin packaging method and apparatus for packaging a predetermined number of coins.

Conventionally, in banks, etc., when a predetermined number of coins are wrapped in a package, a cylindrical body for a predetermined number of coins is wrapped around the rll protruding from both ends of the cylindrical body several times. The part of the piece of paper that protrudes from the cover of the coin tube is folded inward.

Therefore, this packaging method is widely used today because it is flexible and allows the coin cylindrical body to be tightly wrapped.

However, with the conventional method of wrapping coins of this kind, it is time-consuming to remove the wrapping, and when you need to remove the wrapping quickly, you can hit the private part of the coin roll against the corner of a desk, etc., and tear the wrapping paper. As a result, there were disadvantages such as scratches on the corners of desks, etc. and the coins themselves, and the coins scattering when the wrapping paper was torn. In addition, the packaging device using this conventional coin packaging method has the disadvantage of a complicated structure because it requires a process of winding the paper strip and folding back the portions of the paper strip that protrude from both ends of the coin cylindrical body inward. ing.

The present invention was made in view of the following three drawbacks: By wrapping a coin cylindrical body with a predetermined number of stacked coins in a heat-shrinkable film, the coins can easily scatter. The present invention has developed a packaging method that can be easily wrapped without any problems.Furthermore, the present invention is capable of strongly shrink-wrapping a coin cylindrical body made by stacking a predetermined number of simple grooved coins. 7) was developed.

jCLF, the method and apparatus of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

First, in the method of the present invention, as a first step, a coin cylindrical body 2 formed by stacking a predetermined number of cones 1 in a cylindrical shape is covered with a cylindrical piece having a larger diameter than the coin cylindrical body 2. A heat-shrinkable film 3 is attached so that both ends of the heat-shrinkable film 3 protrude from both ends of the coin cylindrical body 2, and the coin cylindrical body 2 is
Both ends of the coin are held between coin receiving surfaces 6.8 having a smaller diameter than the coin 1. The coin cylindrical body 2 is sent out in a predetermined number of piles according to type using a coin sorting machine that has been used recently, but it may of course be sorted and crushed manually. In addition, the heat-shrinkable film 3 attached to the coin cylindrical body 2 is obtained by cutting a long tube-shaped (usually flat) fabric into a desired length, but it shrinks when heated. All uniaxial types are used, the ratio being greater in the radial direction than in the longitudinal direction. In a specific example of applying the heat-shrinkable film 3 to the coin cylindrical body 2 as shown in FIG. , the film is placed on the coin receiving surface 6 of a receptor 7 having a coin receiving surface 6 having a smaller diameter than the coin l on the film receiving surface 5. And this receptor 7
To cover the heat-shrinkable film 3 on the coin cylindrical body 2 placed on top, as shown in Fig. β, a heat-shrinkable cylindrical film having a larger diameter and longer length than the coin cylindrical body 2 is placed from above. The film 3 is attached by inserting the coin cylindrical body 2 into the cylindrical portion of the heat-shrinkable film 3. At the lower end side of the coin cylindrical body 2, this heat-shrinkable film 3 protrudes downward from the coin cylindrical body 2 by the step difference between the film receiving surface 5 and the coin receiving surface 6, and also extends from the coin cylindrical body 2. If the length of the heat-shrinkable film 3 is set to a predetermined length on the upper end side of the coin cylindrical body 2, it can protrude toward the coin cylindrical body 2 by a desired length.

A receiving surface 8 having a smaller diameter than the coin 1 is pressed against the upper end of the coin cylindrical body 2 covered with the heat-shrinkable film 3, and the coin cylindrical body 2 is held between the coin receiving surfaces 6 and 8. Note that applying the heat-shrinkable film 3 to the coin cylindrical body 2 and clamping both ends of the coin@sample 2 may be performed either first or at the same time.

In the second step, as shown in the figure, the heat-shrinkable film 1\3 is contracted by heating so as to come into close contact with the coin cylindrical body 2.

In the illustrated example, the method of wrapping the coin cylindrical body 2 in a V-shaped manner has been described, but the method is the same even if the coin cylindrical body 2 is wrapped in a column.

Since the packaging method of the present invention is based on the above, a predetermined number of coins 1 can be stacked and wrapped as shown in FIG. 5 only by heating. Particularly, the parts of the heat-shrinkable film 3 that protrude above and below the coin-cylindrical body 2 before being heat-shrinked contract so as to bend to both the top and bottom of the coin-cylindrical body 2 as the heat-shrinkable film 3 shrinks. Therefore, after packaging, even if the coin receiving surface 6.8 is not clamped, each coin 1. ,1,1...
・Can be packaged securely without falling apart. In addition, since the heat-shrinkable film 3 is easy to tear, it is easy to remove the packaging, and if necessary, perforations 4 can be made in the longitudinal direction of the heat-shrinkable film 3, allowing for speedy removal of coins 1. It is something that can be done. Furthermore, the coin cylindrical body 2 packaged by the method of the present invention can easily tear the heat shrink film 3 without breaking the packaging by hitting the corner of the desk etc. as in the conventional case. This is useful for those who use a large amount of coins 1, 1, 1, etc., as it allows you to remove the packaging without damaging the coins or the coins themselves, and to hold the stacked face of coins 1, 1, 1, etc. with one hand, etc. This really has great advantages.

Next, the packaging device of the present invention for carrying out the above coin packaging method of the present invention will be explained in detail with reference to FIGS. 6 and g.
