The present invention relates to a feeder stack device installed in a feeder handling device, and more particularly, the jam of the feeder is transported to the storage box so that the feeder is horizontally received by the feeder in the conveying direction at the end of the feeder is separated. This prevented, but at the time of reverse rotation does not come in contact with the feeder that was stored in the feeder stack device that prevents the feeder of abnormal feed.

 In general, paper feeders and printers, such as paper handling equipment is a paper feed means for transferring papers, papers, etc. to a predetermined space as a roller or belt and a guide for conveying the upper or lower surface of the paper feeder. It is installed at various parts on the feed route.

For example, a reflux storage box in which bills to be withdrawn or loaded into banknotes are loaded and loaded into a bill handling apparatus is called a recycling box.

Since the recycling box is implemented at the same time with the deposit function and withdrawal function, as shown in Figure 1, the payment unit 100 is formed with a payment means 100 made of various rollers, such as the banknotes are deposited, withdrawal unit with the bills withdrawn Similarly, withdrawal means 200 made of various rollers and the like is provided on the side.

The recycling means 100 of the recycling box 100 is a deposit roller 101 flowing into the deposit box 106, the deposit guide 103 for guiding the bills flowing into the storage box 106, transfer force Pinch roller 104 to closely adhere the bills to the deposit roller 101, the elastic piece to hit the rear end of the bills flowing into the storage 106 so as not to overlap with the tip of the bills introduced subsequently Roller 102 or the like.

 Further, when the bills are introduced by the deposit means 100 of the recycling box, the bills are lowered to secure the deposit space of the bills, and when the bills are taken out by the withdrawal means 200, they are raised to withdraw money. A push plate 107 for contact pressure pressurization of bills is provided on the rollers.

In addition, when the bills are introduced by the deposit means 100, the bills are moved inclined to guide the tip of the bills, and when the bills are taken out by the withdrawal means 200, the bills withdraw the withdrawal means 200. An inflow / outflow guide 105 which is moved upward and is avoided to be pressed by a roller to be performed is provided.

In this way, the deposit means 100 is generally equipped with an elastic piece roller 102 to prevent the occurrence of jams when the banknotes are continuously deposited to perform a smooth deposit operation.

The elastic piece roller 102 rotates together with the deposit roller 101, but a plurality of elastic pieces 102a of soft material which can be bent well are formed on the outer circumference thereof so that the elastic pieces 102a bend the bottom of the bills. After the contact guide is bent elastic piece (102a) is unfolded to push the bills horizontally and hit the rear end of the branch to quickly fall to the lower side. However, in the case of FIG. 1, the elastic piece 102a is not shown in a state in which the elastic piece 102a is bent in contact with the bill.

However, it is common for the above mentioned waste disposal and handling devices to provide driving force to various parts using a single drive motor (not shown) for convenience of control, simplification of components, and economic reasons. .

That is, rather than having a dedicated drive motor for driving the elastic piece roller 102, for example, power transmission such as gears or belts to enable power transfer to the elastic piece roller 102 and other parts using a single drive motor. It is configured to be linked by an apparatus (not represented in the figure).

In this case, the elastic piece roller 102 is not operated only when the depositing operation is performed, but is also operated when the other parts are operated by the driving motor. In this case, the reverse rotation (withdrawal direction) is not performed. Rotation).

The elastic piece 102a sometimes interferes with the bills loaded on the push plate 107 by the reverse rotation of the elastic piece roller 102, and even the bills stick to the elastic piece 102a and the deposit direction Along with the reverse direction of, there is a problem that unwanted unwanted export occurs.

Therefore, in order to prevent the above-mentioned abnormal carry-out, it is one of important design variables to determine the installation position of the elastic piece roller 102 and the length of the elastic piece 102a.

In other words, if the length of the elastic piece 102a is shortened, the natural function of suppressing the occurrence of jams during continuous banknotes deposits will be reduced. If the length of the elastic pieces is long, the occurrence of jams is reduced and smooth depositing operation is performed. On the other hand, the possibility of occurrence of abnormal release as described above is amplified.

However, in reality, obtaining an optimal design dimension regarding the installation position of the elastic piece roller 102 and the length of the elastic piece 102a has a difficulty of carrying out a lot of disassembly, installation location, and trial and error such as changing the elastic piece length. have.

The one-way clutch (not shown in the figure) is installed on the rotating shaft of the elastic piece roller 102 so that the elastic piece roller 102 rotates only in the deposit direction and idle in the withdrawal direction. Since the one-way clutch must be installed, there is a problem that the manufacturing process becomes complicated and the manufacturing cost increases.

On the other hand, in order to look at the paper feed and stacking structure of the printer device handling the paper as an example illustrates a printer device installed in the automated teller machine to check and output the transaction history.

In the above printer device, a paper for providing transaction details is generally formed in a size of A4 or B5, and since these papers are large in size, a printer module for handling paper also has to be manufactured in a relatively large size.

In addition, in providing the A4 paper describing the transaction history in the automated teller machine, if the customer does not receive the provided paper, it can be collected and stored in the storage box.

Therefore, the size of the storage box should also be increased in proportion to the paper size, and the possibility of jams or the like in the process of automatically loading them also increases relatively.

Referring to FIG. 2, continuous paper having a width of A4 or B5 is accommodated in a paper box (not shown) in a folded state, and the first paper 301 and the second paper 302 are each a printer unit. Supplied to 300 is carried out the necessary printing work.

The first paper 301 and the second paper 302 may be classified into different formats, different sizes, different colors, and the like, and are differently provided with A4 or B5 paper sizes depending on the size of the paper to be cut. Depending on the size provided in some cut state can be used separately.

The printer unit 300 may perform a printing operation by dividing the folding continuous paper from the first paper 301 and the second paper 302. In detail, the printer unit 300 includes a first transfer guide 320, a second transfer guide 330, a thermal print module 340, a cutter 350, and a stack transfer unit 360.

The sheets 301 and 302 are provided to the print module 340 through the first or second transfer guides 320 and 330, and the feed rollers 322 and 332 are respectively provided in the first and second transfer guides 320 and 330. ) Is installed. The control unit (not shown in the drawing) may selectively operate the conveying rollers 322 and 332 to supply the first paper 301 or the second paper 302 to the print module 340.

The print module 340 includes a platen roller 342, and the platen roller 342 supports the printing surface in correspondence with the print head, and rotates the substrate to continuously convey the printed portion of the printing paper. It is connected to the drive motor 344 by functioning. When the printing is completed, the cutter 350 cuts the printed portion, and the stack transfer unit 360 transfers the cut printing sheet to the stack space 462 as shown in FIG. 3.

Meanwhile, referring to FIG. 3, the paper loaded in the stack space 462 is discharged or recovered by the discharge / recovery unit 400. The discharge / recovery unit 400 includes a discharge / recovery module 470 and a storage box 480.

The paper loaded in the stack space 462 is discharged to the outlet 464 by the discharge / recovery module 470, and the paper waits for the customer's receipt at the outlet 464. If the customer does not receive the paper for a predetermined time, the discharge / recovery module 470 is rotated in the reverse direction to transfer the unreceived paper back to the stack space 462, and again start forwarding.

In this case, the discharge / recovery gate 472 of the discharge / recovery unit 400 may provide a path through the paper transport path to the storage box 480. Therefore, the paper conveyed in the forward direction is transferred to the transport path by the discharge / recovery gate 472, the converted paper is stored by the first transfer unit 474, the second transfer unit 476 and the transfer guide 478 ( 480).

Although the first conveying unit 474 and the second conveying unit 476 are composed of a conveying roller and a conveying belt, only the first conveying unit 474 is shown to receive power from the driving motor 472, but a power transmitting device such as a gear or a belt. It is also possible to power-transfer to the second conveying part 476 by (not shown in the figure), and the upper and lower surfaces of the paper adhere to the first and second conveying parts 474 and 476 so that the paper is guided to the storage box 480. . The paper is guided downward by the transfer guide 478, and the lower end of the transfer guide 478 is bent downward so as not to interfere with the progress of the paper.

However, as shown in FIG. 3, since the lower end of the transfer guide 478 is bent downward, the paper conveyed by the first and second transfer units 474 and 476 may move downward from the lower end of the transfer guide 478. It is discharged as if sprayed toward it. Therefore, the end of the paper is conveyed inclined to the bottom of the storage box 80, the inclined state is temporarily maintained by the inertia at the time of transport, the paper may be stagnated at the exit of the transport guide 478 (①).

 In addition, when the thermal paper is used, the paper may be bent toward the side on which the thermal coating is formed, and the curved paper may prevent the entry of another paper to enter later, so that the paper is between the first and second transfer parts 474 and 476. Jam may occur (②).

As described above, the printer device requires a means for preventing congestion and jams occurring when the paper is transferred to the storage box 480 in the process of collecting the paper.

In this case, there may be an attempt to use the elastic piece roller, but in this case, the elastic piece roller can process only one sheet of paper, whereas the printer machine usually handles several sheets at once, including the case where the sheet is recovered one by one. Therefore, there is a limit in preventing jams by the elastic piece roller, and even if it is changed to a structure for processing one by one, there is a problem that abnormal ejection may occur during the reverse rotation of the elastic piece roller like the bill handling apparatus described above.

Therefore, there is a need to provide a means for preventing stagnation and jam in the transport means to ensure a smooth recovery operation in the printer device.

 Accordingly, an object of the present invention is to provide a feeder stack device for smooth feeding and storing of feeders without installing a separate elastic piece roller and one-way clutch.

 The present invention for achieving the above object, the roller or belt is installed in a vertical structure so as to form a paper feed path, the paper feed is installed along the paper feed path to guide the one side of the paper feed is conveyed by the roller or belt In the feeder stacking device consisting of a paper tray conveying means consisting of a guide, a paper box to which the paper separating from the paper conveying means is loaded, the paper feeder is installed at a portion where the paper of the paper conveying means is separated and stepped along the outer periphery A plurality of latch portions are formed to include a paper stack roller for pushing bills to be separated.

In addition, in the above, the latch portion is characterized in that the outermost conveying portion and the seating portion on which the paper is seated and the vertical portion for pushing the paper seated on the seating portion in the conveying direction.

Hereinafter will be described in detail on the basis of the configuration and action effects according to an embodiment of the present invention.

  4 is a schematic side view of a branch stacking apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention, Figure 5 is a view for explaining the feed and stacking principle of the feeder stack in accordance with an embodiment of the present invention, 6 is a view illustrating a paper feed process by the paper stack roller in the paper stack device according to an embodiment of the present invention.

Feeder stack device according to an embodiment of the present invention illustrates that it is applied to the recycle box of the bill handling machine described above in the prior art.

As shown in Figure 4, the recycle box of the bill handling machine is the deposit roller 101, the deposit guide 103 and the pinch roller 104 and the inflow / outflow guide 105 on the opposite side of the withdrawal means (200) And the depositing means 100 is formed, including the storage box 106 and the push plate 107, the above components are the same as those applied to the recycling box of the prior art, a detailed description thereof will be omitted.

On the other hand, the paper feed means of the feeder stack apparatus according to an embodiment of the present invention is the deposit roller 101, the deposit guide 103 and the pinch roller 104 and the inlet / outlet guide 105, the deposit roller At the bottom of 101, a paper stack roller 10 is added.

The paper stack roller 10 is designed to improve the elastic piece rollers exemplified in the above-described prior art, and serves to feed the paper and feed the paper to the storage box 106.

The paper stack roller 10 for performing such a role is provided at a portion where the banknotes of the depositing means 100 are separated, and a plurality of latch portions 11 are formed to be stepped along the outer periphery.

As shown in FIG. 6, the latch portion 11 of the feeder stack roller 10 has a slightly deformed shape in the sawtooth shape, and the outermost portion includes a transfer portion 11a and the transfer portion in friction contact with a bottom surface of a bill. It consists of a seating part 11b in which the banknotes dropped to 11a) are seated, and the vertical part 11c which pushes the paper seated in the seating part 11b to a conveyance direction.

As such, the latch portion 11 of the paper stack roller 10 may be formed in a sawtooth shape, but if the contact resistance is generated in line contact with the bills, the bills may be damaged. It is desirable to have the above structure to disperse this.

And the paper stack roller 10 and the deposit roller 101 may be applied to a variety of installation structure as shown in Figure 5 so that the outer edge of the paper stack roller 10 and the outer edge of the deposit roller 101 to interfere with each other The installation is due to the purpose of giving rigidity to the bills.

That is, the bills are to be wrinkled with respect to the cross-sectional direction of the conveying direction, even when the bills formed with such wrinkles are separated from the paper stack roller 10 and the deposit roller 101 is introduced into the storage box 106 side. It can be fed in a generally horizontal state while temporarily maintaining rigidity without bending the paper.

The bills are not only stagnant at the separation portion of the paper stack roller 10 and the deposit roller 101, but also prevent the collision with the bills which are subsequently introduced to the storage box 106, so it is excellent in preventing jams at the time of deposit. There is.

6 (a), 6 (b) and 6 (c) sequentially illustrate a process of stacking bills in the paper stack roller 10.

The bills are transferred along the deposit guide 103 by the deposit roller 101 and the pinch roller 104 as described above, and then enter between the deposit roller 101 and the paper stack roller 10.

Since the outer edges of the billing roller 101 and the paper stack roller 10 interfere with each other, the bills begin to form wrinkles, and it is not known to which part of the latches 11 the first touches the billing rollers. 101) and the paper stack roller 10 are mutually interfering structure, so the bills are moved forward. In particular, the banknotes are smoothest transfer since the greatest degree of mutual friction will be generated when the banknotes come in contact with the transfer part 11a formed at the outermost part of the latch part 11.

 6, although the deposit roller 101 is not illustrated for the sake of understanding of the drawings, the deposit roller 101 is installed to interfere with the paper stack roller 10 as described above.

When the bills are moved forward and the paper stack roller 10 is continuously rotated, and the rear end of the bills is positioned at the seating portion 11b of the latch portion 11, the bills will be fine but fall to be seated on the seating portion. Since the paper stack roller 10 is in a rotating state, the paper money slips on the seating portion 11b and contacts the vertical portion 11b. The paper stack roller 10 is horizontally subjected to the feeding direction elasticity due to the rotation of the paper stack roller 10. Is committed.

As described above, the latch portion 11 of the feeder stack roller 10 transfers bills forward and fine, but because it is pushed down in the horizontal direction after dropping, bills are deposited in advance and like the elastic piece rollers of the prior art. This prevents jams that may occur between bills being deposited.

On the other hand, the paper stack roller 10 does not drop down quickly by hitting the bills like the elastic piece roller of the prior art, but the prior papers are pushed in the conveying direction after being slightly dropped from the latch portion 11. However, since the trailing papers perform the above operation continuously, the jam phenomenon that the paper money is stagnant at the paper money separating part does not occur.

Hereinafter will be described in detail on the basis of the configuration and working effects according to another embodiment of the present invention.

 7 is a schematic side configuration diagram of a feeder stack device according to another embodiment of the present invention.
