Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] The present invention relates to a delivery control mechanism for smoothly delivering paper sheets such as tickets at a winding outlet of a ticket issuing machine, for example.

Conventionally, as shown in FIG. 1, at the winding outlet of a ticket issuing machine, a rotatable tension roller 2 is brought into contact with the upper surface of a base 1 under the tension of a spring 3, and the paper is conveyed from the direction of the arrow. The ticket a is held between the base 1 and the tension roller 2 and carried out.

That is, the ticket a is decelerated by the friction between the base 1 and the tension roller 2, and is brought out from the winding outlet 4 and stopped.

However, with such a mechanism, there is a risk that, depending on the ticket manufacturing conditions, for example, the ticket a may fly out of the winding outlet 4, or conversely, the ticket may not be conveyed out of the winding outlet 4.

Therefore, there was an inconvenience that the tension of the spring 3 had to be constantly adjusted according to the manufacturing conditions of the ticket.

The present invention was developed in view of the above circumstances, and its purpose is to determine the type of paper sheet, to stop the paper sheet at the exit section, and to
It is an object of the present invention to provide a paper sheet discharge control mechanism that does not cause variations due to properties, etc., and can wait without ending discharging until a customer or staff member pulls out the paper sheets.

An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to FIGS. 2 and 3.

In the figure, reference numeral 11 denotes a conveyor belt consisting of a plurality of strips wound around a driving roller (second roller), 12a, and a driven roller (first roller) 12b.

On the upper surface of this conveyor belt 11, a pinch roller 13a is provided opposite to the drive roller 12a, and a driven roller 12b is provided.
A pinch roller (pressing means) 13b is disposed opposite to and in contact with.

Furthermore, 14 is a driving roller 12a and a driven roller 12.
The detection section is disposed between 15a and 15b and detects the ticket a on the conveyor belt 11, and is composed of a light source lamp 15a1 that irradiates light and a photoelectric conversion element 15b that converts the light from the lamp 15a into an electrical signal. .

The output of this photoelectric conversion element 15b is connected to a motor 17 as a drive source via an electromagnetic clutch brake 16.

Note that 18 is a belt wound around the drive roller 12a and the electromagnetic clutch brake 16, 19 is a belt wound around the electromagnetic clutch brake 16 and the motor 17, and a spring (biasing means) is attached to the pinch roller 13b. 20 is stretched, and is configured to apply a constant pressing force to the driven roller 12b.

Next, the operation of the present invention based on the above configuration will be explained.

Now, the electromagnetic clutch brake 1 is activated by the drive of the motor 17.
While the conveyor belt 11 is traveling through the conveyor belt 6, when the ticket a is conveyed from the direction of the arrow, the ticket a is pinched by the drive roller 12a and the pinch roller 13a and fed.

That is, the ticket a is placed on the conveyor belt 11 and conveyed in the direction of the arrow.

Then, the light from the lamp 15a is blocked by the passage of the ticket a, and the photoelectric conversion element 15b disposed above the conveyor belt 11 changes from 1 bright to 1 dark.

Therefore, when the photoelectric conversion element 15b changes from 1 light to 1 dark, a timer (not shown) sends an output signal to the electromagnetic clutch brake 16 with a slight delay, the electromagnetic clutch brake 16 starts operating, and the clutch controls the motor 17. Transmission of rotation is cut off.

Furthermore, at the same time as the cutoff, the drive of the drive roller is also stopped by the brake of the electromagnetic clutch brake 16.

Therefore, the conveyor belt 11 causes the ticket a on the conveyor belt 11 to protrude from the ticket outlet 4 by a certain amount and stop.

Next, when the customer or the clerk pulls out the ticket a that can be projected from the ticket exit 4, the photoelectric conversion element 15b receives the light from the lamp 15a again and changes from one dark state to one light state.

However, at this time, the electromagnetic clutch brake 16 is not activated, indicating that the issuance of ticket a has ended.

Therefore, since the completion of ticket issuing is confirmed by removing ticket a, it is possible to prevent ticket issuing errors and to prevent jamming with the next roll.

In addition, the pinch roller 13b arranged adjacent to the ticket exit 4
, or the pressing force of the conveyor belt 11 on the ticket a does not hinder the customer or staff member from pulling out the ticket a, and also makes it easy even when a force in the opposite direction, that is, a force pushing the ticket a into the machine, is applied to the ticket a. The force is controlled by the spring 20 to such an extent that it cannot move.

Although one embodiment of the present invention has been described with respect to a ticket ejection control mechanism at the ticket exit of a ticket issuing machine, the present invention is not limited to this. The same effect can be achieved.

As explained above, in the present invention, paper sheets are conveyed by an unloading control mechanism, and a detection means for detecting passage of paper sheets is arranged in the middle of the conveyance, and the conveyance is controlled by a clutch brake means. It is characterized by

Therefore, paper sheets can be stopped by a predetermined amount of paper protruding from the outlet regardless of the nature or type of the paper sheet, and the operation of the machine is locked until the paper sheet is removed by a customer or staff member. Since it does not end, it is possible to prevent issuing errors or jamming with subsequent paper sheets, and furthermore, it is possible to control the movement of paper products that can be protruded from the exit, even if force is applied to push them into the machine. It has the effect of
