BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a medium recovery device for a financial automatic machine, and more particularly, to a medium recovery device for a financial automatic machine that can prevent arbitrary manipulation of a medium supply unit for supplying a paper medium into the medium recovery device .

In general, automatic teller machines (ATMs) can provide basic financial services such as cash and check deposits and withdrawals by using cards or bankbooks without regard to time and place, It is an automation device. In recent years, the use of financial automation equipment has expanded not only in financial institutions such as banks but also in convenience stores, department stores, and public places.

Financial automation devices can be divided into withdrawal machines, depositing machines and depositing machines depending on whether they are depositing or withdrawing money. In recent years, financial automation machines have been used for various purposes such as cash withdrawals, withdrawals of checks, checks and balances, . A transfer path for transferring paper media such as cash, checks, tickets, vouchers, etc. is formed inside the automated teller machine.

On the other hand, the paper medium can be transported along the transport path in an abnormal state. For example, the abnormal state of the paper medium is typically a torn or folded state, a state of being out of a normal transport path, and a state in which a plurality of media are overlapped. If the paper medium is transported in an abnormal state as described above, there is a high possibility that a jam is generated inside the automated teller machine, and the risk of malfunction during the withdrawal of the automated teller machine is increased.

In addition, the paper medium withdrawn from the automated teller machine may not be received by the customer in error. As described above, the paper medium not received by the customer can be exposed to the outside for a long time in the withdrawal portion, whereby the paper medium that has not been received can be lost.

In order to solve the above problems, a recent financial automation device uses a paper medium in an abnormal state and a medium recovery device for recovering an unreceived paper medium. However, since the capacity of the medium recovery device is limited, the medium recovery device can be formed in a structure that can be replaced when necessary.

Therefore, it is necessary to take measures to prevent an accident that the paper medium is stolen from the medium recovery device separated from the financial automation equipment. In particular, in the situation where the use of the financial automation equipment is gradually expanded, the necessity for prevention of theft accident is further improved have.

An embodiment of the present invention provides a medium recovery device for a financial automation device capable of preventing theft of a paper medium through an input port of the medium recovery device.

In addition, the embodiment of the present invention provides a medium recovery device for a financial automatic machine, which can arbitrarily operate the operation of the medium supply unit disposed at the loading port to prevent the paper medium stored in the medium recovery device from being drawn out through the loading port .

According to an embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a medium recovery device for recovering and storing a paper medium in an abnormal state traded in a financial automation device or a paper medium in which a customer has attempted to purchase from a financial automation device. That is, the apparatus includes a main body for accommodating therein the paper medium which is formed in the front portion and introduced through the input port, a medium supply unit for supplying the paper medium introduced into the input port to the inside of the main body, A shutter rotatably disposed on a front portion of the main body for opening and closing the slot, and a shutter provided on the main body and the medium supply unit to be interlocked with the shutter, and when the shutter is closed by the shutter, And a locking control unit for restricting the operation and releasing the constraint state of the medium supply unit when the slot is opened by the shutter.

Here, when the medium recovery device is not used, the shutter closes the loading port to prevent the paper medium from being stolen through the loading port. However, the shutter may be damaged by an external impact, and if the shutter is broken, the inlet may be exposed to the outside. Then, in the conventional medium recovery apparatus, the medium supply unit can be exposed to the outside, and the paper medium accommodated in the main body can be arbitrarily discharged through the loading port by arbitrarily operating the medium supply unit.

However, in an embodiment of the present invention, when the shutter closes the loading port, the locking adjustment unit restrains the medium supply unit, so that the medium supply unit can not be arbitrarily operated even in a situation where the shutter is broken. Therefore, the medium recovery apparatus according to the embodiment of the present invention can prevent the medium supply unit from being arbitrarily operated at the time of the breakage of the shutter, thereby preventing the theft of the paper medium by the medium supply unit .

The locking control unit includes a rotation lever rotatably disposed on both sides of the main body and formed with a lever gear portion to be engaged with a shutter gear portion formed on the shutter to interlock with the shutter, And a locking unit provided in the rotation lever and the medium supply unit and restricting the operation of the medium supply unit or releasing the constraint state of the medium supply unit according to the position of the rotation lever can do.

That is, the rotation lever may be rotated by the driving force input through the driving force input unit. The shutter may be rotated by the rotation lever, and the loading port may be opened or closed by the shutter. The operation of the medium supply unit can be selectively restricted by the locking portion depending on the position of the rotation lever.

Wherein the medium supply unit includes an upper roller portion rotatably provided on the upper portion of the loading port and closely attached to an upper surface of the paper medium that is introduced into the loading port and a lower roller portion rotatably provided at a lower portion of the loading port, And a lower roller portion which is in close contact with a lower surface of the paper medium. The locking portion may restrict the operation of at least one of the upper roller portion and the lower roller portion.

For example, the locking portion may include an interlocking gear provided on the upper roller portion and the lower roller portion, and a locking gear provided on the rotation lever to selectively engage or separate the interlocking gear according to the position of the rotation lever. .

The locking unit may include a first interlocking gear provided on the upper roller unit and a second interlocking gear disposed on the lower roller unit and coupled to the first interlock gear to interlock the upper roller unit and the lower roller unit, And a locking gear provided on the rotary lever to selectively engage or disengage the at least one of the first interlocking gear and the second interlocking gear according to the position of the rotary lever. That is, the first interlocking gear and the second interlocking gear are not only components that are selectively engaged with the locking gear, but also components that connect the upper roller portion and the lower roller portion in a linkable manner.

The apparatus for recovering media of a financial automatic machine according to an embodiment of the present invention may further include a lever limiting member provided on both sides of the main body. The lever limiting member may restrict the rotation of the rotation lever when the main body is detached from the financial automatic machine and may not restrict the rotation of the rotation lever when the main body is mounted on the financial automatic machine.

The rotation lever may be disposed at a position where the shutter closes the input port when the main body is detached, and may be disposed at a position where the shutter opens the input port when the main body is mounted.

Accordingly, when the medium recovery device is detached from the financial automation equipment, the shutter may be disposed at a position to close the loading port, and the locking gear may be disposed at a position connected to the interlocking gear. However, since the rotation lever is limited in rotation by the lever limiting member, the operation of the shutter and the locking gear may be limited.

The medium recovery device of the financial automatic machine according to the embodiment of the present invention can prevent the paper medium from being discharged arbitrarily by using the medium supply unit of the input port in a state of being detached from the financial automatic machine. Therefore, the safety and reliability of the medium recovery device can be improved.

In addition, since the operation of the medium supply unit is restricted by the locking adjusting unit when the loading port is sealed by the shutter, the medium return device of the financial automatic machine according to the embodiment of the present invention restricts the operation of the medium supply unit, Can be prevented. Therefore, since the optional operation of the medium supply unit is prevented, it is possible to prevent the paper medium from being discharged from the inside of the main body to the outside through the input port by the medium supply unit in advance.

In addition, since the locking regulating unit for restricting the operation of the medium supply unit or releasing the restraining state is formed in a very simple structure, the medium recovery device of the financial automation equipment according to the embodiment of the present invention can easily provide various kinds of medium recovery devices And the application cost of the locking adjustment unit can be reduced.

For example, the elastic member 168 may be formed of a coil spring. That is, one end of the elastic member 168 may be connected to the rotation lever 162, and the other end of the elastic member 168 may be connected to the main body 130.

The rotating lever driving force input section 164 is a member that receives the driving force of the automatic teller machine 100 through the return device housing section 122. That is, the rotation lever driving force input unit 164 may be provided at the rear portion of the rotation lever 162 and may be arranged to protrude out of the main body 130.

The locking portion 166 may restrain the operation of at least one of the upper roller portion 142 and the lower roller portion 144. That is, when the rotary lever 162 is disposed at the first position P1, the locking portion 166 may be configured to constrain at least one of the upper roller portion 142 and the lower roller portion 144. [

One example of the locking portion is an interlocking gear provided on the upper roller portion 142 and the lower roller portion 144 and a rotation lever 162 for selectively engaging or disengaging the interlocking gear according to the position of the rotation lever 162 And a locking gear provided in the second housing. The interlocking gear may be integrally formed with the upper roller 142b and the lower roller 144b or may be integrally formed with the upper roller rotation shaft 142a and the lower roller rotation shaft 144a. Therefore, in the example of the locking portion 166, the operation of the upper roller portion 142 and the lower roller portion 144 is restricted by the engagement of the interlocking gear and the locking gear.

Another example of the locking portion 166 is provided in the first interlock gear 170 and the lower roller portion 144 provided in the upper roller portion 142 and the upper roller portion 142 and the lower roller portion 144 A second interlocking gear 172 engaged with the first interlocking gear 170 and a second interlocking gear 172 interlocking with at least one of the first interlocking gear 170 and the second interlocking gear 172, And a locking gear 174 provided on the rotary lever 162 to selectively engage or disengage. Hereinafter, it is assumed that another example of the locking portion 166 is applied to the locking adjustment unit 160. FIG.

The first interlocking gear 170 may be integrally formed with the upper roller 142b or the upper roller rotation shaft 142a and the second interlocking gear 172 may be integrally formed with the lower roller 144b or the lower roller rotation shaft 144a. As shown in FIG. The first interlocking gear 170 is integrally formed on the upper roller rotation shaft 142a and the second interlocking gear 172 is integrally formed on the lower roller rotation shaft 144a.

The first interlocking gear 170 and the second interlocking gear 172 function not only to engage with the locking gear 174 but also to interlock the upper roller 142 and the lower roller 144 can do. That is, the first interlocking gear 170 and the second interlocking gear 172 are linked to each other so that the upper roller 142 and the lower roller 144 can be operated together.

The driving force of the medium supply unit 140 may be input to at least one of the first interlock gear 170 and the second interlock gear 172. The first interlocking gear 170 and the second interlocking gear 172 may also transmit the driving force to the upper roller 142 and the lower roller 144. In the following description, a part of the first interlock gear 170 is exposed to the outside of the main body 130 and the driving force of the automatic teller machine 100 is inputted. That is, when the medium recovery device 115 is housed in the medium recovery device storage part 122, the first interlocking gear 170 can receive the driving force of the financial automation device directly through the medium recovery device storage part 122 have.

The locking gear 174 is a member that is engaged with either the first interlocking gear 170 or the second interlocking gear 172 according to the position of the rotation lever 162. In the following description, the locking gear 174 is coupled to the second interlocking gear 172 for convenience of explanation. That is, at the first position P1 of the rotary lever 162, the locking gear 174 can be coupled to the second interlock gear 172, and at the second position P2 of the rotary lever 162, 174 may be coupled to the second interlock gear 172. [

The locking gear 174 may be provided at a front portion of the rotation lever 162 so as to be disposed at a position corresponding to the second interlocking gear 172. That is, since the shutter gear 152 and the second interlocking gear 172 are disposed at different positions, the lever gear portion 162a can be formed on the front surface of the front portion of the rotation lever 162, and the locking gear 174 May be formed on the side surface of the front portion of the rotation lever 162.

The locking gear 174 may be formed on the rotation lever 162 disposed on both sides of the main body 130 and the second interlocking gear 172 may be formed on the lower roller And the rotating shaft 144a, respectively. However, in the following description, the locking gear 174 is formed only on one of the rotation levers 162 disposed on both sides of the main body 130, and the second interlocking gear 172 is formed so as to correspond to the single locking gear 174 And the lower roller rotational shaft 144a is provided with a single number.

2 to 7, the medium recovery device 115 of the automated teller machine 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is configured to detect the operation of the rotation lever 162 And a lever limiting member 180 that selectively restricts the opening of the lever.

That is, when the main body 130 is detached from the medium recovery device storage portion 122, the lever limiting member 180 can restrict the rotation operation of the rotation lever 162. [ On the other hand, when the main body 130 is mounted on the medium recovery device housing portion 122, the lever limiting member 180 may not restrict the rotation of the rotation lever 162. [

When the main body 130 is detached, the rotation lever 162 is disposed at the first position P1 so that the loading port 130a can be closed by the shutter 150. When the main body 130 is detached, 162 may be disposed at the second position P2 so that the loading port 130a can be opened by the shutter 150. [ Therefore, when the main body 130 is detached from the medium recovery device housing portion 122, the rotation lever 162 can be restricted in operation by the lever limiting member 180 while being positioned at the first position Pl .

Referring to FIGS. 2 to 6, the lever limiting member 180 is a member that is pivotably mounted on both side portions of the main body 130 in the left-right direction. Specifically, when detaching the main body 130, the lever limiting member 180 may be disposed at a position where the lever limiting member 180 is engaged with the rotation lever 162. When the main body 130 is mounted, the lever limiting member 180 can be moved to a position where the lever limiting member 180 does not engage with the rotation lever 162.

That is, the lever limiting member 180 may be resiliently supported at a position where it is engaged with the rotation lever 162, and when the main body 130 is mounted, the interference portion 124 formed in the medium recovery device housing portion 122 It can be moved to a position where it does not interfere with the rotation lever 162. For this purpose, a part of the lever limiting member 180 may be disposed so as to protrude from the outside of the main body 130.

The operation of the shutter 150 is restricted by the rotation lever 162 and the operation of the shutter 150 is restricted by the lever limiting member 180 when the main body 130 is detached, And the operation of the second interlocking gear 172 can also be restrained by the locking gear 174 so that any operation of the medium supply unit 140 can be prevented.

The operation of the automated teller machine 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention with respect to the medium return device 115 will now be described.

2 and 6, when the medium recovery device 115 is attached to the medium recovery device storage part 122, the lever limiting member 180 is positioned between the interference part 124 of the medium recovery device storage part 122 And is moved to a position where it is not engaged with the rotation lever 162. [

When the lever limiting member 180 is depressed as described above, the rotation lever 162 can freely move between the first position P1 and the second position P2.

The first interlock gear 170 of the medium recovery device 115 and the rotation lever driving force input portion 164 may be connected to the medium recovery device storage portion 122 to receive the driving force of the automatic teller machine 100 .

At this time, when the rotation lever 162 is rotated to the second position P2 by the driving force inputted to the first interlock gear 170, the shutter 150 is rotated together with the rotation lever 162 so that the input port 130a Is opened. Accordingly, the medium recovery device 115 can recover the paper medium M in an abnormal state detected in the automatic teller machine 100 through the input port 130a or the paper medium M not consumed by the customer.

5, when the medium recovery device 115 is detached from the medium recovery device housing part 122, the rotation lever 162 is disposed at the first position P1, (130a). At this time, the locking gear 174 is also rotated together with the rotation lever 162 to engage with the second interlock gear 172.

Then, when the medium recovery device 115 is detached from the medium recovery device storage portion 122, the lever limiting member 180 is released from interference with the interference portion 124 of the medium recovery device storage portion 122, (162).

When the lever limiting member 180 is returned to the home position as described above, the rotation lever 162 is restrained in operation by the lever limiting member 180 while being disposed at the first position Pl.

In addition, the first interlocking gear 170 and the rotation lever driving force input portion 164 of the medium recovery device 115 are separated from the medium recovery device storage portion 122.

7 to 9, since the rotation of the second interlocking gear 172 of the medium recovery device 115 is restrained by the locking gear 174, the operation of the lower roller portion 144 is restricted . Since the rotation of the first interlocking gear 170 of the medium recovery device 115 is restrained together with the second interlocking gear 172, the operation of the upper roller 142 may also be restrained.

The operation of the medium supply unit 140 is restricted by the locking gear 174 even if the shutter 150 is broken by the external impact and the slot 130a is exposed to the outside, It is impossible to arbitrarily pull out the paper medium M from the inside of the main body 130.

In particular, plastic material is mainly used in recent media recovery apparatus 115 for light weight, easy manufacture, and cost reduction. Therefore, there is a high possibility that the shutter 150 is broken or deformed by an external impact, and in this process, there is a high possibility that the inlet 130a is exposed to the outside. Therefore, when the media recovery apparatus 115 of the present invention is detached from the automatic teller machine 100, the operation of the medium supply unit 140 is restrained, so that the security and safety of the medium recovery apparatus 115 can be ensured .
