Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the accompanying drawings, FIGS. 1 to 4.

First, when power is initially supplied to the counting device of the present invention, the control unit 20 performs self-diagnosis as shown in the flowchart of FIG.

In the self-diagnosis, the controller 20 compares the rotational speeds of the discharge motor and the main motor installed in the apparatus while the control unit 20 tests whether the start sensor 5 operates normally, and the image sensor corresponds to the rotational speed of the motor. The encoding speed and the scan state of the (CIS) 11 and the ultraviolet sensor (UV) 13 are diagnosed.

In addition, after diagnosing the scanning state of the discharge synchronization unit 17, the first discharge (Stacker) 3 and the second discharge (Pocket) (4) whether the banknote jam or not, and after the main motor brake operation Diagnose the failure by measuring the stop time.

When the series of self-diagnosis as described above is completed, the control unit 20 waits for the user to enter the operation mode through the key unit 25.

When the user puts a stack of bills in the hopper 2 in a state in which a specific operation mode is set by the user's key unit 25, the start sensor 5 detects the bills placed on the hopper 2, As the banknote detection signal of the start sensor 5 is input, the controller 20 drives the motor not shown to operate the paper feeder 6 and the transfer unit 21.

When the main roller 7 and the sub rollers 8 and 9 of the paper feeder 6 are driven, the bills placed on the hopper 2 are supplied one by one to the inside, and are provided at the rear end of the paper feeder 6. The tilt detection unit 10 detects (tilt angle) how much the banknotes are fed in a tilted state, and the image sensor 11 photographs the banknotes being fed, and whether the bills of paper, priesthood and remittance, and input of the banknotes are input. Will sense the direction, the front or back of the bill.

The image photographed by the image sensor 11 is compensated for the inclination angle detected by the inclination detector 10 so that the bill can be recognized and determined more quickly.

Sponge roller 12 is installed in the state in which the image sensor 11 is in contact with each other, so that the bill passing through the image sensor 11 passes through in a state of being completely in contact with the image sensor 11. It can be expected that the effect of improving the banknote identification performance of the).

On the other hand, the bill passing through the image sensor 11 passes through the ultraviolet sensor unit 13, the ultraviolet sensor unit (UV) 13 transmits and reflects the ultraviolet rays to the bill passing through whether or not the counterfeit of the bill and the priesthood Or, it is judged whether or not the transfer, the counter sensor (Count) 14 installed in the rear end of the ultraviolet sensor unit 13 generates and outputs the operation synchronization signal of the magnetic sensor unit (MG) 15 while counting the bill passing through The magnetic sensor unit 15 determines whether the counterfeit is detected by analyzing the magnetic pattern of the banknote in synchronization with the synchronization signal provided from the counter sensor 14.

The reason why the magnetic sensor unit 15 is further installed at the rear end of the ultraviolet sensor unit 13 is to more accurately detect the forgery that becomes more precise.

Banknotes passing through the magnetic sensor unit 15 are transferred to the rear path switching unit 18 side by the main roller 22 and the auxiliary rollers 23 and 24 of the transfer unit 21, wherein the path switching unit ( The discharging synchronous unit 17 installed at the front end of 18) detects the bill to be transferred and generates a discharging synchronizing signal corresponding thereto.

The control unit 20 switches the path switching unit 18 to the first stacker 3 or the second pocket 4 in accordance with the discharge synchronization signal, so that the banknotes can be rolled or counterfeit or new priesthood and Depending on whether or not remittance is to be discharged to the first or second outlet (3, 4).

Then, the control unit 20 is a banknote of the bill as the information counted by the counter sensor 14 and the winding type information sensed by the image sensor 11 when all bills placed in the hopper 2 is discharged to the discharge port (3, 4) The total sum is output to the display unit 19 and the number of bills counted is displayed on the display unit 19.

The user puts 90 sheets of 10,000 won and 10 thousand won in the hopper (2) while discharging the two kinds of sorts (the 10,000 won is discharged into the second outlet and the 5,000 won is discharged into the first outlet). And the total sum function,

As the start sensor 5 detects the bill placed on the hopper 2, the control unit 20 drives the feeder 6 to feed the bill placed on the hopper 2 one by one,

The image sensor 11 detects rolls of bills and supplies the detection signal to the control unit 20. The ultraviolet sensor unit 13 and the magnetic sensor unit 15 accurately detect whether or not counterfeit is detected, and the counter sensor 14 ) Counts the bills and supplies the information to the control unit 20.

Accordingly, the control unit 20 switches the path switching unit 18 to the second discharge port 4 when the 10,000 won winding is discharged, and discharges it to the second discharge opening 4, and when the 5,000 won winding is discharged, the path switching unit 18 is removed. Switching to the first discharge port 3 side so that the five thousand won bill is discharged to the second discharge port 4, the control unit 20 is also counting the winding number information of the bill sensed by the image sensor 11 and the count of the counter sensor 14 By using the information, the total sum of the total bills is counted and output to the display unit 19.

Through this function, the user can automatically select 10,000 won and 5,000 won bills by counting the total number of bills. Similarly, the sorting output of pneumonia and counterfeit, placed on the front and back of a bundle of bills, is placed on the back. It is possible to sort and count the bills in various ways by using the function of sorting and outputting the sorting function and sorting function according to the input direction of the bill.

In addition, in the present invention, it is possible to accurately count and discharge banknotes while counting banknotes at high speed.

Then, when the user selects the orthogonal function and puts a bundle of bills on the hopper, the priesthood and use rights of the bills passed by the information sensed by the image sensor unit 11 and the ultraviolet sensor 13 (usable bills). ) Or remittance (paper waste), and in response, the control unit 20 switches the path switching unit 18 so that the priesthood, the right of use, and the repatriation are selected at the first or second outlets 3 and 4. By being discharged, it is possible to simply sort the bills by priesthood and remittance.

On the other hand, in the bill counting device, if the bill counting operation is not performed for a predetermined time, the control unit 20 operates the time output unit 30, and the time output unit 30 is always counting in real time. Under the control of 20, the real time counting information is outputted to the display unit 19, so that the current time is displayed through the display unit 19 of the banknote counter.

As described above, the present invention provides a means for feeding the bills placed in the hopper one by one inside the case having two outlets, the paper type, the priesthood and the remittance of the bills (ordinary function), billing direction, front and back, The sensor means for detecting whether the counterfeit and the like, and the means for switching the path so that the banknotes are discharged to the discharge outlet of any one side according to the detection result of the sensor means, and sorts the paper currency, new priesthood, repatriation bills It detects whether or not by sorting or counterfeiting by different kinds of bills, and counts and discharges the counted bills into two outlets by book type or by lungs, or by right and new bills and remittance bills. It is effective to provide a banknote counting device that has an orthogonality and counterfeit discrimination function to sum and display all bills. You can treat it.
