Abstract

PURPOSE:To enable leaves and the like accumulated in an accumulating section to be positively held by both No.1 and No.2 conveyor members so as to be discharged by allowing a swaying section which comprises a part of No.1 con veyor member and forms the accumulating section between itself and No.2 conveyor member, to be closed while it is running. CONSTITUTION:When a bank note P which is accumulated in an accumulating section, is discharged, a swaying section 66a is swayed to the side of a high speed conveyor belt 61 which acts as No.2 conveyor belt at the same time, with an electromagnetic solenoid 72 energized, simultaneously a pulse motor is allowed to rotate at high speed. This causes a conveyor belt 66 to run at high speed as No.1 conveyor belt, and allows notes P accumulated in the accumulating section to be conveyed to the direction as shown by an arrow head permitting them to be held by the section contacting with the high speed conveyor belt 61. In addition, driving gears 77 and 78 are meshed each other allowing the note P to be discharged at high speed from a discharging outlet. This configuration does not permit the note to be jammed and to suspend conveying operation as often taken place in the past and enables the note to be stably discharged.

First, FIG. 3 shows the flow of banknotes at the time of deposit. First to ninth gates 50 to 58 for changing the flow of banknotes are arranged on the conveyance path, and these gates 50 to 58 It is driven by a solenoid (not shown) and a bill detector that detects timing.

The banknote bundle P' inserted from the banknote insertion slot 20 is taken in one by one, and is discriminated by the banknote inspection section 24. , those with tape attached, those with large bends, etc.) are sorted at the fourth gate 53 and accumulated in the first shim accumulation section 4rK.

On the other hand, genuine banknotes (correctly identified banknotes) are at t44 gate 5.
3 and are conveyed in the direction of the thick solid line, the back tickets are sorted at the fifth gate 54 and pass through the front-back reversing section 25a, and the front tickets do not need to be reversed, so they pass through the conveyance path 25b and are transferred to the front-back reversing section 25a. It is a trap that joins the passing banknotes on the conveyance path. In addition, the front-back reversing section 26t and the conveyance path 25b
The conveyance length is the same distance, and the order and pitch of the front and back tickets will not change. Then, the banknotes are further transported and each roll i (for example, 5,000 yen,
1,000 yen, 10,000 yen), etc., each gate (7th gate 56,
...5,000 yen, 8th gate 57...1,000 yen, 9th gate 5
B...10,000 yen) After being sorted and temporarily accumulated by K, when the approval switch of the operation switch 8 of the operation section 9 is turned on, the funds are stored in the respective safes 30, 31, and 32 degrees 33.

Moreover, FIG. 4 shows the operation of the rejected ticket at the time of deposit in FIG. The banknotes in the first sashimi accumulating section 41 pass through the second sashimi accumulating section 42, which is switched at high speed, and are returned to the bill ejection opening 20 (shared with the banknote insertion opening). This returned ticket can be reinserted if necessary (this is possible by repeating the deposit operation before pressing the approval switch).

Next, referring to FIG. 1, the operation when returning deposits will be explained. The banknotes that are temporarily accumulated at the time of deposit may be rejected if the disapproval switch is pressed, or if the banknotes are
If it is found that the banknotes cannot be deposited, such as over the limit amount, the respective banknotes are returned to the withdrawal rows 235°3σ and 37. At this time, the banknote passes through the banknote inspection section 24, but is not discriminated. In addition, the first sashimi accumulating section 41 is a high-speed conveyance path, and the second sashimi accumulating section 42 accumulates the banknotes in a sashimi-like manner while stacking them at the banknote outlet 20 and then returns them to the customer.

Next, the operation at the time of withdrawal/money will be explained with reference to FIG.

Only the specified number of bills can be withdrawn from K upon request from the customer (input of card and password, manual input of withdrawal amount, etc.).Banknotes in the safe (31, 3: J33 as necessary) can be withdrawn by the take-out roller 35. , 36.

31, the specified number of bills are taken out, and the banknote inspection section 2
4, the genuine bills pass through the first sashimi accumulating section 41 at high speed, are stacked in a sashimi shape at the second sashimi accumulating section 42, and are then accumulated in the bill dispensing port 20, after which they are dispensed to the customer.

In addition, banknotes that are unsuitable for withdrawal at the banknote inspection section 24 (overlapping, severely torn, etc.) are sorted out at the fourth gate 53 and
. . . It passes through the portion shown by the line and is accumulated to an excluded winding thickness of 40.

Furthermore, FIG. 7 shows the operation when withdrawing and returning money. For example, after a customer has accumulated a specified amount of money in the banknote dispensing port 20, he or she inquires online at the center and finds out that the money cannot be withdrawn due to insufficient balance. If it becomes clear, the banknotes cannot be ejected, so the banknotes are returned to the safes 31, 32, and 33 in the same manner as the deposit operation without opening the lid 7C of the deposit/withdrawal lower. However, the difference from when making a deposit is that the exclusion ticket is placed at Gate 6 55.
They are sorted and stored in the exclusion safe 40.

Further, FIG. 8 shows the operation when a customer forgets to collect a banknote. For example, when a customer forgets to take out a banknote that has been withdrawn or a banknote that has been returned, the banknote is left in the paper sheet outlet 20. The remaining IT cannot be operated by the next customer, so if the banknotes are not removed for a certain period of time, such as time monitoring, the first gate 50 is switched and the banknotes are accumulated in the collection thickness 43.

In addition, Figure 9 shows the loading operation, which is used when bank staff set banknotes first thing in the morning. 5,000 yen) are set in a mixed form and are stored one by one in the 1,000 yen storage JZ and 10,000 yen storage 32 by the take-out row 234. Since the banknotes pass through the banknote inspection section 24, the number of banknotes for each denomination of front and back is managed. It can be performed. Further, the rejected ticket passes through the line section in the figure, is once returned to the bill insertion slot 20, and then is returned to the loading safe as shown in FIG. 10.

Further, Fig. 11 shows the operation during inspection, and the operation is performed by an employee at a bank or the like pressing a switch inside the machine or a switch on a remote monitor (not shown) as necessary, and each safe 31. 32 and 33 banknotes are stored in the inspection safe 30 while being discriminated by the banknote inspection section 24, and the number of banknotes for each denomination can be managed.

Further, the rejected tickets at this time are sorted by the fourth gate 53 and accumulated in the rejected roll thickness 40 through the line portion in the figure.

Next, the first sash accumulating section 41 will be described in detail based on FIG. 11. In the figure, σ1 is a high-speed conveyance belt as a second conveyance member, and this high-speed conveyance belt 61 is a roller σ2.
, 63, 64°65. Further, 66 is a conveyor belt as a first conveyor member, and this conveyor belt 6θ is passed through rollers 67, 68; 69, and VC hooks.

The portion of the conveyor belt 66 that extends over the rollers 68 and 69 is a swinging portion 66a, and this swinging portion 66a is connected to an electromagnetic solenoid 72 via a connecting rod 71. As the electromagnetic solenoid 720 turns on and off, the swinging section 66a swings so that it comes into contact with the high-speed conveyor belt 61 as shown in FIG. 12, or moves away from it as shown in FIG. It has become.

Then, banknotes P are placed in a space 73 formed between these high-speed conveyance belts 71 and the swinging portion 66a of the conveyance belt 66.
K is set so that .

Further, the roller 67 of the conveyor belt 66 is connected to a one-way clutch 74 as a means for preventing reverse rotation and a drive belt 7.
The conveyor belt 66 is connected to a pulse motor 45 through a terminal 5, and by the operation of the pulse motor 45, the conveyor belt 66 is run at a low speed when stacking banknotes P, and at a high speed when discharging banknotes.

A gear 77 is attached to the lower end of the swinging portion 66a of the conveyor belt 66 as shown in FIG.
7 meshes with a drive gear 78 that is rotated at high speed by a drive source (not shown) when the swinging portion 66a is closed, thereby causing the conveyor belt 66 to travel at high speed.

Further, as shown in FIG. 11, a detector 81 consisting of a light emitting diode 79 and a light receiving element 80 is provided on the entrance side of the stacking section 41. The rear end portion is detected, and the pulse motor 45 is driven for a certain period of time each time the rear end is detected, and the conveyor belt 66 is intermittently run so that the banknotes P are stacked in a sash-like manner.

Therefore, the banknotes P accumulated in the first sashimi accumulation section 41
..., the electromagnetic solenoid 22 is turned on and the swinging section 66a swings toward the high-speed conveyor belt 61 as shown in FIG. 13, and the pulse motor 45 is rotated at high speed. As a result, the conveyor belt 66 travels at high speed, and the banknotes P... accumulated in the stacking section 41 are conveyed in the direction of the arrow and are clamped at the contact part (banknote clamping part) K with the high-speed conveyor belt 61, and then transferred to the drive gear. 77.71
1 is engaged and the banknote P is discharged at high speed to the banknote discharge port 20 through the route explained in FIG.

As mentioned above, according to this embodiment, the conveyor belt 6σ
Since the swinging part 66a is closed while traveling at high speed, the banknotes P in the stacking part 41 can be clamped at the contact part (banknote clamp part) between the conveyor belt 66 and the high-speed belt 61, and as shown in FIG. Even if there is a wrinkled or half-folded banknote P on the lower side of the stacking section 41, it can be moved upward and engaged with the gears 77.18, and it can be reliably discharged at high speed. .

Furthermore, since a one-way clutch 74 is attached to the row 261 of the conveyor belt 66, the conveyor belt 56 can run reliably without reverse rotation or slipping even when the pulse motor 45 rotates at high speed. After the drive gears 77.7& are engaged, no force is transmitted to the Sibars motor 45 due to the action of the one-way clutch 74, and only the conveyor belt 66 runs at high speed.

Note that the present invention is not limited to the above embodiment,
Of course, various modifications can be made within the scope of the gist.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, the present invention has a structure in which the swinging part of the first conveying member is moved and closed to release the paper sheets in the stacking part, so that the paper sheets in the stacking part are transferred to the first and second stacking parts. It has the effect that it can be reliably held between the conveying members, and that it can be stably discharged without jamming or being unable to convey as in the conventional case.
