Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 7-257805

The present invention relates to a paper sheet taking-out mechanism in which a takeout member enters an accumulation portion in which paper sheets are accumulated, receives the paper sheets, and takes out the paper sheets to the outside.

Background Art Conventionally, in financial institutions such as banks, a banknote arranging device that bundles and sorts banknotes collected at a certain number of times at the time of a close inspection or the like has been introduced. The conventional banknote arranging apparatus sets a large number of banknotes of a mixture of different kinds of paper into the input section, conveys them to the discriminating unit one by one, and discriminates between the types of gold and fines and the like. If the accumulated number of sheets is fixed, the banknote clamp unit receives it, takes it out of the temporary accumulator, transfers it to the shibong, and bundles it with a binding material such as paper tape. It is.

Moreover, when the banknote clamp part receives a banknote from the temporary accumulation part, the hand arm which comprises a banknote clamp part enters into the temporary accumulation part by a predetermined amount from the direction parallel to the width direction of a banknote, and stops an entry operation | movement. At that position, the hand arm sandwiches the banknote and retracts from the inside of the temporary accumulator in order to perform a bill taking operation in which the banknote is taken out of the temporary accumulator, and is added while the banknote is held. Move to Sibong.

Further, a paper sheet accumulating device which permits the accumulation of a plurality of paper sheets having different external dimensions, the position limiting means for aligning the stacking positions of the paper sheets by changing the position of the integrated guide member to be guided according to the paper sheet's external dimensions. There is a tributary integrated device provided with (See Patent Document 1, for example)

In the above conventional banknote arrangement apparatus, the amount by which the hand arm enters the temporary accumulation unit from the direction parallel to the width direction of the banknote in order to take out the banknote is constant, and the banknote accumulated in the temporary accumulation unit is the banknote. It is elastically supported at the inlet side of the to be positioned. Since the length in the width direction of banknotes distributed in Japan is unified at 76 mm, the hand arm can reliably receive banknotes even if the amount of the hand arm entering the temporary accumulator is constant.

On the other hand, in recent years, although the banknote sorting apparatus for overseas banknotes is desired as a globalization, when the said conventional banknote sorting apparatus is used in the countries where the banknotes of which the width direction differs according to a gold grade etc. are distributed, temporary accumulation is carried out. If the length in the width direction of any kind of banknotes accumulated in the book is shorter than the class of banknotes to which the apparatus corresponds, the hand unit enters the necessary length to take out the banknotes even if the hand unit enters the temporary stacking unit. Previously, the entry operation of the hand unit was stopped, and the bills could not be inserted. And in such a case, a banknote could not be taken out from the temporary accumulation part.

Moreover, although there exist conventionally the apparatus which changes the position of the integration guide member which accumulates according to the outer dimension of paper sheets, it inserts a banknote and changes the entry amount to the temporary accumulation part of the hand arm taken out from the temporary accumulation part. There was nothing.

Therefore, in countries where banknotes with different lengths in the width direction in accordance with the gold species are distributed, there is a problem that the gold species of the banknotes that can be processed by the banknote arrangement device are limited.

Means to solve the problem

In order to solve the above problems, the solving means formed in the present invention includes a paper sheet taking-out mechanism in which a take-out member enters an accumulation section in which paper sheets are accumulated, receives the paper sheets, and takes out the paper sheets to the outside. The position at which the take-out member entering the integration unit stops the entry operation is determined according to the accumulation position of the paper sheet based on the size of the paper sheet, and the entry operation of the take-out member is stopped at the determined position. The control means which performs a control to make it make is formed.

The drawing roller which abbreviate | omitted is formed. Moreover, in the banknote arranging apparatus 1, the accommodating roller pair 14 is provided in the vicinity of the input part 13. And in the input part 13, a banknote is set so that the width side may become a conveyance direction, and the banknote set which draws out the banknote set by rotating the said extraction roller and the accommodation roller 14 sequentially from the lower side, and inside the banknote arrangement | stacking apparatus 1 inside Return to In addition, about 500 banknotes can be set in the input part 13.

The banknote arranging apparatus 1 is provided with a conveyance path 3a before recognition which sandwiches and conveys banknotes by the belt which omitted illustration after the input part 13, and this conveyance path 3a before recognition is provided. Accordingly, a discriminating unit 2, which is a recognition unit for discriminating the authenticity, the kind of paper money, the right hand, the front and back, the size, and the like of banknotes, carrying out the detection of conveyance abnormality and transmitting the discrimination result to the main control unit described later, is formed. have. Moreover, the recognition rear conveyance path 3b is formed in the rear end of the discrimination part 2, and the front and rear inversion part 4 which performs the front and back inversion of banknotes is formed along this recognition rear conveyance path 3b. This front and rear inversion part 4 conveys an outer banknote as it is, and converts an inner banknote back and forth by a switchback system.

On the upper surface of the banknote arranging apparatus 1, the open pocket 5 which accumulates a banknote of the kind other than a binding object is formed, and the banknote integrated in this open pocket 5 can be directly accessed by an operator. . Moreover, the open pocket conveyance path 3c connected to the recognition back conveyance path 3b is connected to the open pocket 5.

A reject pocket 8 is formed above the input section 13 to accumulate reject banknotes discriminated by unknown type in the discriminating section 2 or detected an abnormality in conveyance. The reject pocket 8 is formed in the reject pocket 8. The operator can also directly access the accumulated bills. In addition, the reject pocket conveyance path 3e connected with the conveyance path 3a before recognition is connected to the reject pocket 8. Moreover, the conveyance path 3a before recognition and the recognition rear conveyance path 3b are connected in the upper horizontal conveyance path 3d.

In addition, the lower horizontal conveyance path 3f connected to the recognition rear conveyance path 3b is formed in the lower part of the banknote arrangement | stacking apparatus 1, and this lower horizontal conveyance path 3f further has the lower longitudinal conveyance path 3g, Connected. And the temporary accumulation part 6 which is an integration part is formed in 3 g of lower longitudinal conveyance paths.

In the present embodiment, the temporary accumulator 6 is configured by arranging four temporary accumulators 6a to 6d for each gold type in one column in the vertical column. For example, in the present embodiment, 100 bills can be accumulated. In addition, it is not necessary to limit it to four temporary accumulators. Further, at the lower part of the temporary accumulator 6, a test rod 10 which is sealed against the banknote is formed. In addition, this sealing part 10 cut | disconnects the conveying means which consists of a roller, a belt, etc., the tape for binding by a paper tape, etc., the printing means, the supply means which supplies a tape, and a tape to predetermined length. A cutter and a binding means are provided. In addition, the banknote rearranging unit 1 has a rear end than the temporary stacker 6 so as to be movable between the temporary stacker 6 and the sealer 10, and receives the banknotes accumulated in the temporary stacker 6. The banknote clamp part 30 which takes out the temporary accumulator 6 and conveys it to the test rod 10 is provided.

Moreover, the discharge opening 11 which discharges a banknote bundle to the exterior of the apparatus is formed in the front lower part of the banknote arranging apparatus 1, and is connected by the test rod 10 and the banknote bundle discharge conveyance path 3h. The front door of the banknote arranging apparatus 1 is further provided with a non-illustrated door, and the operator can access the temporary accumulator 6 by opening the door. Moreover, the operation display part which abbreviate | omitted illustration is further formed in the front upper part of the banknote arranging apparatus 1 so that it may be located behind the open pocket 5. This operation display part is comprised by the LCD and the touch panel arrange | positioned at the surface, and an operator operates this operation display part, designates a mode, the paper type of the banknote integrated in the temporary accumulators 6a-6d, and an accumulation procedure. Etc., setting is performed. In addition, the operation display unit is also displayed with the kinds of money, the loss of money and counting results of the banknotes discriminated by the discriminating unit 2.

Moreover, each said conveyance path 3 is comprised by the roller and the belt wound around the roller.

Next, the structure of the temporary accumulation part 6 is demonstrated. In FIG. 2, four temporary integration parts 6a-6d are arrange | positioned in the up-down direction and arrange | positioned in the temporary integration part 6 as mentioned above, and the lower longitudinal length of each temporary integration part 6a-6d vicinity is arranged. In 3 g of conveyance paths, the switching blade which abbreviate | omits illustration which changes the conveyance direction of a banknote is provided for every temporary accumulator 6a-6d, respectively. And by switching of this switching blade, a banknote is distribute | distributed to each temporary accumulator 6a-6d for each gold type. In addition, since the temporary accumulators 6a to 6c have the same structure, the temporary accumulator 6a will be described below as an example.

1 and 2, an integrated plate 22 in which bills are accumulated is formed in the temporary accumulator 6a, and an integrated roller pair 41 is formed between the integrated plate 22 and the switching blade (not shown). 41a, 41b) are formed. And the banknote conveyed by switching of a switching blade from the lower longitudinal conveyance path 3g by rotation of the integration roller pair 41 is accommodated in the temporary accumulator 6a.

An integration width lever (not shown) is mounted coaxially with the integration roller 41a on the drive side of the integration roller pair 41. The rotation center of the integration width lever is eccentric, and the eccentric arm portion 29 is coupled to the integration width lever by a link not shown. In this way, the eccentric arm portion 29 swings in the direction of the arrow A-B in accordance with the eccentric state of the integration width lever.

On the opposite side to the banknote entry port side of the temporary accumulator 6a, that is, the side on which the accumulating roller pair 41 is formed, the shutter 25, which is a collision member, is formed in a state in which rotational movement is freely supported by the shutter support member. . The shutter 25 acts as a collision in the width direction of the accumulated banknotes, and is opened and closed when the banknotes are exchanged from the temporary accumulator 6 to the banknote clamp unit described later.

In addition, when the eccentric arm part 29 is positioned in the direction of arrow A most, and the clearance gap between the eccentric arm part 29 and the shutter 25 becomes shortest, the gap is the kind of gold accumulated in the temporary accumulation part 6. It becomes approximately equal to the length of the banknote in the width direction. Therefore, the banknote accumulated by the eccentric arm part 29 and the shutter 25 can be pinched | interposed, and the width direction of a banknote can be aligned.

In the lower part of the shutter 25, the slider 26 which moves the shutter 25 to arrow C-D direction is formed. Moreover, the shutter detection sensor 27 which detects the shutter 25 when positioned in the initial position is provided in the upper part of the shutter 25. As shown in FIG. That is, when the shutter 25 is positioned at the initial position, the signal transmitted from the shutter detection sensor 27 to the main controller described later is changed, whereby the main controller recognizes that the shutter 25 is positioned at the initial position. In addition, an initial position is a position where the shutter 25 was positioned when the banknote whose length in the width direction is the maximum length among the banknotes accumulated in the integrated plate 22 is accumulated. The shutter 25 is further provided with a shutter opening and closing mechanism (not shown), and the shutter is opened and closed by operating the shutter opening and closing mechanism.

In the vicinity of the integrated plate 22, the height sensor which omits the illustration which changes an output when a banknote is detected is formed. When the banknotes are accumulated on the integrated plate 22, and the banknotes reach the height sensor, and the signal transmitted from the height sensor to the main control part changes, the main control part recognizes that the accumulation height of the banknotes exceeds the reference value. . Then, the main control part lowers the integrated plate 22 to enlarge the space of the temporary integrated part 6a. In addition, this operation makes it possible to stably accumulate even if the stacking height is different depending on the state of banknotes resulting from wrinkles, folds, and the like.

The pressing plate 24 is formed above the integrated plate 22 so as to face each other, and the pressing plate 24 stands by at the upper end of the temporary accumulator 6a during the accumulation of the banknote onto the integrated plate 22. It does not interfere with the entry of banknotes which are sequentially taken in. When a predetermined number of bills, for example, 100 bills, are accumulated on the stacking plate 22 of the temporary stacking section 6a, the main control unit operates the switching blade, not shown, in a posture of not inserting bills. Banknotes after the chapter are controlled to be accumulated in any one of the temporary accumulators 6b to 6d.

In the temporary accumulator 6a in which the entry of the banknote is stopped, the bank is held by raising the integrated plate 22 and lowering the pressing plate 24. By this operation, the thickness of banknotes having different stacking heights is made constant according to banknote states such as wrinkles, thereby facilitating transfer to and from the banknote clamp unit described later.

In addition, since the temporary accumulators 6b to 6d also have the same structure as the temporary accumulator 6a, it is possible to position, accumulate, and sandwich bank notes in the same manner as the temporary accumulator 6a.

Next, the structure of the banknote clamp part 30 is demonstrated. The banknote clamp part 30 is comprised from the hand arm 34 which is a takeout member, the hand arm moving mechanism 31, and the shanghai means which abbreviate | omitted illustration, and the hand arm 34 clamps which opens and closes in an up-down direction It has tabs 33a and 33b. This hand arm 34 is mounted on the hand arm moving mechanism 31. When the banknote is clamped and pulled out from the temporary accumulators 6a to 6b by the clamp tabs 33a and 33b, the hand arm moving mechanism is handed. The arm 34 is pushed against the temporary accumulators 6a to 6b and moved to a position where 100 bills can be clamped.

The hand arm 34 and the hand arm moving mechanism 31 are raised and lowered integrally between the temporary accumulators 6a to 6d and between the temporary accumulator 6 and the test rod 10 by means of moving movements. . Since the hand arm moving mechanism 31 needs to be fixed at this position while the hand arm 34 pulls out the banknote from the temporary accumulator 6a, the stopper cam without the rotatable illustration is the hand arm moving mechanism. It fits in with (31), and is prevented from falling.

In the path where the hand arm 34 moves in the direction of the temporary accumulator 6, the hand arm detection sensor 36 which is a detecting means for detecting the sensor detector 34a of the hand arm 34 is a temporary accumulator 6a. 6b, 6c, and 6d). That is, when the hand arm 34 moves in the direction of the temporary integration part 6, when the sensor detection part 34a of the hand arm 34 passes through the location in which the hand arm detection sensor 36 is formed, the hand arm will move. The signal transmitted from the detection sensor 36 to the main controller is changed.

Moreover, the banknote taking-out mechanism 17 which is a paper sheet taking-out mechanism is comprised by the shutter 25 and the hand arm 34. As shown in FIG.

Next, the control system of the banknote arranging apparatus 1 is demonstrated. In addition, here, the control system of the position which concerns on the operation | movement which accumulates a banknote in the temporary accumulator 6, and takes out a banknote by the banknote clamp mechanism 30 from the temporary accumulator 6 is demonstrated. 3 is a block diagram showing a control system of the banknote arrangement device of the first embodiment.

In FIG. 3, the banknote arranging apparatus 1 is provided with the main control part 35 which is a control means which controls the whole banknote arranging apparatus 1, and the main control part 35 has the shutter detection sensor 27 in FIG. And a hand arm detection sensor 36, a first motor drive circuit section 37, a second motor drive circuit section 38, a third motor drive circuit section 41, a fourth motor drive circuit section 45, And the discriminating unit 2 is connected. Further, the first motor drive circuit portion 37 is connected to the first motor 40 connected to the shutter opening and closing mechanism, and the second motor drive circuit portion 38 is connected to the slider 26 with the second motor 47. Is connected to. Moreover, the 3rd motor drive mechanism 41 is connected to the 3rd motor 42 connected to the hand arm movement mechanism, and the 4th motor drive circuit part 45 is connected to the 4th motor 39 connected to the shanghai movement mechanism. Connected.

When the first motor drive circuit unit 37 receives an instruction from the main control unit 35, the first motor driving circuit unit 37 drives the first motor 40 to operate the shutter opening and closing mechanism, and makes the shutter 25 open or closed. . Moreover, when the 2nd motor drive circuit part 38 receives an instruction | command from the main control part 35, the 2nd motor drive circuit part 38 drives the 2nd motor 47, and moves the slider 26 to arrow C-D direction. Moreover, when the 3rd motor drive circuit part 41 receives the instruction | command from the main control part 35, the 3rd motor 42 drives the 3rd motor 42, and moves the hand arm moving mechanism 31 to the arrow C-D direction shown in FIG. When the 4th motor drive circuit part 45 receives an instruction | command from the main control part 35, the 4th motor drive circuit part 45 will drive the 4th motor 39, and will move the shank-dong mechanism in the direction of the arrow EF shown in FIG. ) And the hand arm moving mechanism 31 are integrally moved in the direction of the arrow EF between the temporary accumulators 6a to 6d and between the temporary rod 6 and the test rod 10.

The shutter detection sensor 27 and the hand arm detection sensor 36 are each composed of a light emitting element and a light receiving element, and the light receiving element transmits a value corresponding to the amount of received light to the main control unit 35. The main controller 35 compares the numerical value received from the light receiving element as the received light amount with a predetermined prescribed value, and if the numerical value received as the received light amount is equal to or more than the prescribed value, the main controller 35 is in a "name" state, that is, the shutter detection sensor 27 , And it is determined that the shutter 25 or the hand arm 34 does not exist at a position opposite to the hand arm detection sensor 36, while the main control unit 35 previously measures the numerical value received as the light reception amount from the light receiving element. In comparison with the determined prescribed value, if the received value is less than the prescribed value, the light from the light emitting element is cut off by the shutter 25 or the hand arm 34, and the state is in the "dark" state. In other words, it is determined that the shutter 25 or the hand arm 34 is present at a position facing the shutter detection sensor 27 and the hand arm detection sensor 36.

Next, operation | movement which binds the banknote of the banknote arrangement | stacking apparatus 1 in the said structure is demonstrated. 4, 5, 6, 7, and 8 are explanatory views showing the operation of the temporary accumulating unit and the banknote taking out mechanism of the first embodiment. In addition, in the present embodiment, the banknotes to be inserted are banknotes of different lengths in the width direction for each gold type, and a designated gold type binding mode for binding the specified gold type banknotes is selected, and as the gold type to bind, It is assumed that the second kind of paper money is specified. In addition, it is assumed that the shutter 25 is positioned at the initial position, and the hand arm 34 is positioned at the position opposite to the seam portion 10.

In FIG. 2, an operator first sets a banknote in which a plurality of gold types are mixed so that the width direction becomes a conveyance direction to the input part 13, and the count start button which does not show the figure arrange | positioned in the operation display part which abbreviate | omitted illustration is shown. When pressed, the billing is started. Thereby, the drawer roller formed in the bottom surface of the input part 13, and the receiving roller 14 formed in the input part 13 rotate, separate the set banknotes one by one from the lower side, and draw out one by one sequentially, and a banknote arrangement | stacking apparatus (1) It conveys inside. The banknotes blown into the inside are conveyed to the discriminating unit 2 by the conveying path 3a before recognition, and the discriminating unit 2 discriminates and verifies the authenticity, the kind, the loss, front and back, size, etc. of the banknotes. In addition, detection of conveyance abnormality is performed.

As a result, banknotes other than the binding object discriminated by banknotes of the first kind and the third kind other than the second kind and the fourth kind of money in the real ticket are the upper transverse transport path 3d and the recognition rearward. Banknotes conveyed to the open pockets 5 by the conveying path 3b and the open pocket conveying path 3c and accumulated, and furthermore, banknotes detected by mishandling or unknown denomination, and conveyance abnormalities such as overlapping conveyance are detected. It is conveyed to the reject pocket 8 by the reject pocket conveyance path 3e, and is integrated. Banknotes discriminated by first class paper notes or second class paper papers by the real ticket are placed on the front and rear inverting portions 4 by the upper horizontal conveying path 3d and the recognition rear conveying path 3b, regardless of the result of the discrimination. After conveying and arranging the front and back in this front and rear inversion part 4, it is conveyed to the temporary accumulation part 6 by the lower horizontal conveyance path 3f and the lower longitudinal conveyance path 3g, and is temporarily integrated as follows. It is integrated in any one of the temporary integration parts 6a-6d.

First, a banknote of the first kind of paper money or a second kind of paper money, which is first conveyed to the discriminating part 2 and fixed in the class of money, is accumulated in the temporary accumulating part 6a, and then conveyed to the discriminating part 2. Banknotes of this kind are accumulated in the temporary accumulator 6b. That is, since the paper species of the banknote first conveyed to the discriminating unit 2 is determined as the gold species accumulating in the temporary accumulating unit 6a, the gold species of the banknotes accumulating in the temporary accumulating unit 6b are also uniquely determined. First, when the paper type of the bill conveyed to the discriminating unit 2 is the first paper type, the paper money of the first gold kind is accumulated in the temporary accumulator 6a, and the paper money of the second gold kind is accumulated in the temporary accumulator 6b.

However, if it is specified that the first type of paper money is accumulated in one of the temporary accumulating part 6a and the temporary accumulating part 6b in the operation display part in advance, and the other type of paper money is accumulated in the other, the designation thereof is specified. Banknotes are accumulated accordingly.

Therefore, the main control part 35 based on the banknote information transmitted from the discriminating part 2, the eccentric arm part 29 and the shutter 25 are used for accumulating the temporary accumulator 6a for the 1st kind of banknote. ), The clearance is inserted between the banknotes accumulated, and the control is performed to move the shutter 25 so as to be a proper distance in order to align the width direction of the banknote. That is, the main control part 35 performs control which moves the shutter 25 to the position according to the accumulation position of banknotes determined based on the magnitude | size of a banknote.

For this purpose, the main control part 35 is a banknote which accumulates in the "temporary accumulating part 6" received from the discriminating part 2 from the initial position of the shutter 25 previously determined (this time banknote of the 1st paper type). ), And the value obtained from this calculation to move the shutter 25 from the initial position. Judging by.

When the amount of moving the shutter 25 is determined, the main control part 35 transmits an instruction to the second motor drive circuit part 38 to move the shutter 25 by the calculated amount. In response to this instruction, as shown in FIG. 4, the second motor drive circuit portion 38 drives the second motor 47 to drive the slider 26, and controls the shutter 25 positioned at the initial position. It moves in the direction of arrow C by the quantity indicated from 35, and stops the movement of the shutter 25 by stopping the movement of the slider 26 there. The main control unit 35 also stores the calculated movement amount of the shutter 25 in a storage unit not shown.

By moving the shutter 25 in this way, the paper thrown into the temporary accumulating part 6a is sandwiched between the eccentric arm part 29 and the shutter 25, and the width direction of a banknote can be aligned. . In this state, as shown in FIG. 5, the banknote 16 begins to accumulate in the temporary accumulator 6a, and the longevity of the banknote 16 accumulated in the temporary accumulator 6a is connected with the main control part 35. As shown in FIG. It is counted in the 1st counter which omits the illustration.

In addition, also in the temporary accumulation part 6b, the quantity which moves the shutter 25 from an initial position is calculated similarly, and the movement operation | movement of the shutter 25 is performed. And the accumulation of the banknotes 16 is started, and the number of sheets of the second kind of banknotes 16 accumulated in the temporary accumulator 6b omits the illustration connected to the main controller 35 similarly to the temporary accumulator 6a. It is counted at one second counter.

That is, each time a banknote is accumulated in the temporary accumulators 6a and 6b, the values of the first counter and the second counter are added by "1" by the main controller 35. When the banknote 16 is taken in and the number of banknotes 16 accumulated in the temporary stacking unit 6a reaches 100, the place of accumulation of the banknotes 16 of the same kind is moved to the temporary stacking unit 6c, From the 101st sheet, it is integrated in the temporary accumulation section 6c.

Similarly, when the banknote accumulated in the temporary accumulator 6b reaches 100 sheets, it is accumulated in the temporary accumulator 6d from the 101st sheet. It goes without saying that the number of bills accumulated in the temporary accumulators 6c and 6d is counted in the third counter, not shown, and the fourth counter, not shown, connected to the main control unit 35.

And the banknote 16 of the temporary accumulation part 6a which reached 100 sheets is pinched by the hand arm 34, is taken out from the temporary accumulation part 6a, and is sent to the test rod 10. As shown in FIG.

Since the temporary accumulator 6a becomes empty by this, when the number of banknote accumulation sheets of the temporary accumulator 6c or 6d reaches 100 sheets, the switching to the empty accumulator 6a becomes possible. At this time, the value of the 1st counter is cleared (the value of 2nd counter-4th counter is cleared even if the banknote of the temporary accumulation parts 6b-6d is taken out).

Next, the operation | movement which pulls out the banknote 16 of the said temporary accumulator 6a which reached 100 sheets from the temporary accumulator 6a with the banknote clamp part 30, and sends it to the test rod part 10 is demonstrated. .

In the temporary accumulation part 6a where the entry of the banknote 16 is stopped, as shown in FIG. 6, the main control part 35 raises the integration plate 22 and lowers the pressing plate 24, thereby lowering the banknote of the first paper type. (16) is interposed. By this operation, the thickness of banknotes having different stacking heights is made constant according to banknote states such as wrinkles and the like, so as to facilitate the transfer to and from the hand arm 34.

Since the shutter 25 moves along the length of the banknote in the width direction, it is necessary to change the stop position of the hand arm 34 with it. Accordingly, the main control part 35 moves the hand arm 34 further from the position where the hand arm detection sensor 36 detects the hand arm 34 when the hand arm 34 is moved, that is, the entry operation. Calculate the position at which to stop. For this purpose, the main control part 35, from the position where the hand arm detection sensor 36 detects the hand arm 34, determines "the banknote which has the longest length in the width direction among the banknotes which are piled up beforehand". The amount of movement of the hand arm 34 to the amount of movement of the hand arm 34 in the direction of the arrow C by the value obtained by adding "the amount of movement of the hand arm 34 to the position where the shutter 25 has stopped at this time". 34) move and stop the entry operation there.

In addition, the amount that the hand arm 34 needs to move from the hand arm detection sensor 36 to the position where the shutter 25 is stopped this time causes the shutter 25 stored in the storage unit to be moved from the initial position. Calculate using the amount.

When the amount for moving the hand arm 34 from the hand arm detection sensor 36 is determined, the main control section 35 causes the hand arm 34 to be transferred to the temporary integration section 6a with respect to the fourth motor drive circuit section 45. Send an instruction to move to the corresponding position. In response to this instruction, the fourth motor drive circuit section 45 drives the shandong means through the fourth motor 39, and temporarily moves the hand arm 34 together with the hand arm moving mechanism 31 by the shandong means. When the hand arm 34 is raised to a predetermined position by raising it to the position corresponding to the accumulator 6a, the lifting operation is stopped and the stopper cam is rotated to engage the hand arm transfer mechanism 31.

Thereby, the hand arm moving mechanism 31 is fixed to the position corresponding to the temporary accumulator 6a, and in this state, the clamp tabs 33a and 33b of the hand arm 34 are moved up and down by the hand arm moving mechanism 31. To open and prepare to clamp 100 bills. The main control section 35 transmits an instruction to move the hand arm 34 to the third motor drive circuit section 41 here. In response to this instruction, the third motor drive circuit portion 41 moves the hand arm moving mechanism 31 in the direction of arrow C via the third motor 42. By this movement, the hand arm 34 also moves in the direction of the arrow C, the sensor detecting portion 34a of the hand arm 34 reaches the hand arm detecting sensor 36, and the main arm from the hand arm detecting sensor 36. When the output transmitted to the section 35 is changed, the main controller 35 sends an instruction to the third motor drive circuit section 41 to move the hand arm 34 further from the position by the calculated value. do. In response to this instruction, the third motor drive circuit portion 41 moves the hand arm moving mechanism in the direction of arrow C by the indicated amount via the third motor 42.

By moving the hand arm 34 in this way, as shown in FIG. 7, the hand arm 34 penetrates into the temporary accumulator 6a from the clearance gap formed in the shutter 25, and the opening part of the temporary accumulator 6a. .

The clamp tabs 33a and 33b of the hand arm 34 thus extruded are inserted into the openings of the temporary accumulator 6a and, when moved by the amount indicated above, stop the movement there. Thus, the main control part 35 performs control to stop the hand arm 34 which entered the temporary accumulator 6a at the position according to the accumulation position of banknotes determined based on the size of banknotes.

At this position, the banknote 16 held by the integrated plate 22 and the pressing plate 24 is sandwiched from above and held. Next, by spreading the integrated plate 22 and the presser plate 24 in accordance with the instruction of the main control section 35, when the pincers of the banknotes are released by both of them, 100 bills are handed over to the hand arm 34. .

Subsequently, the main controller 35 transmits an instruction to keep the shutter 25 open to the first motor drive circuit unit 37 to open the shutter 25. In response to this instruction, the first motor driving circuit unit 37 drives the first motor 40 connected to the shutter opening and closing mechanism to operate the shutter opening and closing mechanism, and is supported by the shutter supporting member 46 as shown in FIG. 8. The shutter 25 is rotated to be opened.

Subsequently, the main controller 35 transmits an instruction to the third motor drive circuit portion 41 to return the hand arm 34 to the initial position. In response to this instruction, the third motor drive circuit portion 41 drives the third motor 42 in the reverse direction to move the hand arm moving mechanism 31 in the direction of the arrow D, and the bills 16 are held by the clamp tabs 33a and 33b. ), The hand arm 34 in a state of being pinched is returned.

When the hand arm 34 is returned to the initial position, the stopper cam (not shown) engaged with the hand arm moving mechanism 31 is rotated so that the engagement is released, and the main control part 35 drives the fourth motor. Instructions for moving the hand arm 34 to the test rod 10 are transmitted to the circuit portion 45. In response to this instruction, the fourth motor drive circuit section 45 drives the fourth motor 39 to drive the shank means, and the hand arm moving mechanism 31 together with the hand arm 34 holding the banknote 16. Move to the rod 10 located at the bottom of the movement path. The hand arm 34 then passes the banknote held by the clamp tabs 33a and 33b to the seam sticking section 10.

In the test rod 10, a conveying means (not shown) receives 100 bills 16 collectively from the hand arm 34 and conveys them to the binding position. Then, the tape supply means supplies the tape to the binding means, and at that time, the printing means prints the paper or the like of the banknote bound to the tape through the ink ribbon. The printed tape is cut into a cutter to a predetermined length, and the cut tape is wound around 100 sheets of paper conveyed by the binding means at the binding position to bind the bill. The banknote bundle thus produced is further conveyed by the conveying means, sent to the discharge port 11, and discharged out of the banknote arranging apparatus 1.

In the present Example 1, the banknote 16 based on the magnitude | size of the banknote 16 is the position where the main arm part 35 entered the temporary accumulation part 6, and the position where the hand arm 34 stops entering operation. To take out the banknote 16 from the temporary accumulator 6 by performing the control to stop the entry operation of the hand arm 34 at the determined position. By the necessary length, it is possible to enter the temporary accumulator 6. As a result, the hand arm 34 can reliably fit the banknote 16 regardless of the length of the width direction, and can take out the banknote 16 from the temporary accumulation part 6 to the outside. Therefore, even in countries where banknotes with different lengths in the width direction are distributed, the banknote arrangement device 1 can process all kinds of banknotes.

Example 2

Next, Example 2 of the present invention will be described. In the banknote arranging apparatus of the present embodiment 2, the difference from the banknote arranging apparatus 1 of the first embodiment is to form the hand arm detection sensor 36 in the shutter 25 and to move the shutter 25. The hand arm detection sensor 36 moves in association with each other. Since the hand arm detection sensor 36 is formed in the shutter 25, since the hand arm detection sensor 36 moves with the shutter 25 which moves along the length of the banknote in the width direction, it is a temporary accumulation part. The position at which the hand arm 34 stops the entry operation in order to sandwich the banknotes accumulated in the (6), the hand arm detection sensor 36 moves the hand arm 34 regardless of the length of the banknote in the width direction. It becomes constant from the detected position. Therefore, what the main control part 35 calculates in order to know the position which stops the entry | movement operation of the hand arm 34 should just be the distance which the shutter 25 moves from an initial position.

In addition, since the structure and operation of that excepting the above are the same as that of the said Example 1, description is abbreviate | omitted.

As mentioned above, in Example 2 of this invention, when the hand arm 34 which enters into the temporary accumulation part 6 in the shutter 25 is detected, and the hand arm 34 is detected, the main control part 35 is carried out. On the other hand, by forming the hand arm detection sensor 35 which transmits the information which the main controller 35 uses to stop the entry operation of the hand arm 34, the same effects as those in the first embodiment are achieved, and the shutter The calculation for calculating the position at which the hand arm 34 is moved is unnecessary if only the distance at which the 25 moves from the initial position is required, so that the program can be easily compared with the bill arranging apparatus 1 of the first embodiment. can do.

According to the present invention, the control means determines, according to the accumulation position of the paper sheet based on the size of the paper sheet, the position at which the ejection member entering the integration section stops the entry operation, and the entry operation of the ejection member at the determined position. By performing the control to stop the operation, the takeout member can be made to enter the accumulation portion by a length necessary for taking out the paper sheets from the accumulation portion. As a result, the takeout member can reliably sandwich the paper sheets regardless of the length in the width direction, and can take out the paper sheets from the accumulation portion to the outside.
