Abstract
The present invention relates to a path switching apparatus.
The path switching device according to one aspect includes: a rotating shaft; A path switching unit installed on the rotating shaft and rotating together with the rotating shaft; And an idle roller which is coupled to the rotary shaft so as to be rotatable relative to the rotary shaft, in order to provide a conveying force to the medium during the conveyance of the medium.
Description
BACKGROUND OF THE
Generally, a financial instrument refers to a device that processes a financial business desired by a customer, such as depositing a banknote or a check, or processing withdrawals. The bill, the check, and the like can be collectively referred to as a "medium ".
Meanwhile, the financial instrument may include respective modules for storing, withdrawing, discriminating and accumulating the medium, and the modules are connected to each other by a plurality of transport paths. Thus, the medium can be transported to each module via the transport path.
Wherein the transport path may include a portion in which one transport path is branched into two or more transport paths, which portion may be referred to as a "branch portion ".
The branching unit may include a path diverter for guiding the medium to one of the two or more transport paths. The path switching device rotates at a certain angle to switch the transport direction of the medium.
Japanese Unexamined Patent Application Publication No. 2009-51579 (published on Mar. 13, 2009) discloses a recording medium conveyance path structure and an image forming apparatus.
The medium conveying path structure of the preceding document may include rollers provided at the front end and the rear end of the branching means and the branching means, respectively.
At this time, when the medium is guided by the branching means, the medium must be engaged with any one of the rollers disposed at the front end and the rear end of the branching means. Therefore, the interval of the rollers is set smaller than the interval of the medium. And, in the media transportation process, the medium comes into contact with the rollers at the front end and the rear end of the branching means.
According to this prior art document, the medium is brought into contact with the branching means while being in contact with the one roller, so that the conveyance is guided. In this process, the problem that the end of the medium is folded or the medium is caught between the branching means and the guide forming the path .
In addition, since the conveying force of the medium is generated by the rollers provided at the front end and the rear end of the branching means, there is a problem that the interval between the rollers is short and the number of rollers increases on the entire conveyance path in the image forming apparatus.
It is an object of the present invention to provide a route switching device, a medium processing device, and a financial device, in which the number of rollers for transportation can be reduced and the transport stability of the medium is improved.
The path switching device according to one aspect includes: a rotating shaft; A path switching unit installed on the rotating shaft and rotating together with the rotating shaft; And an idle roller which is coupled to the rotary shaft so as to be rotatable relative to the rotary shaft, in order to provide a conveying force to the medium during the conveyance of the medium.
According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a medium processing apparatus comprising: a branching portion in which a first path through which a medium is fed is branched into a second path and a third path; And a path switching device for switching the path of the medium, wherein the path switching device includes an idle roller coupled to the rotating shaft so as to be rotatable relative to the rotating shaft so as to rotate when the medium is transported, .
According to another aspect of the present invention, there is provided a financial device comprising: a customer information acquisition unit for acquiring customer information; A display unit for displaying a menu and information for deposit or withdrawal; And a medium processing apparatus capable of processing the medium to be deposited or withdrawn and capable of transporting the medium, wherein the medium processing apparatus is capable of switching the path of the medium on the transport path, And a roller for providing a force.
According to the present invention, as idler rollers are provided on the rotation axis for rotating the path switching unit to provide the conveying force to the medium, the distance between the conveying rollers is shorter than the distance between the conveying rollers when the idler rollers are not installed on the rotary shaft And the number of conveying rollers for conveying the medium can be reduced.
Further, the stability of transporting the medium in the branching portion is improved, and jam occurrence can be prevented.

In describing the components of the embodiment of the present invention, terms such as first, second, A, B, (a), and (b) may be used. These terms are intended to distinguish the constituent elements from other constituent elements, and the terms do not limit the nature, order or order of the constituent elements. When a component is described as being "connected", "coupled", or "connected" to another component, the component may be directly connected or connected to the other component, Quot; may be "connected," "coupled," or "connected. &Quot;
For example, the financial device according to an embodiment of the present invention obtains a variety of media such as banknotes, checks, etc., giro coins, gift certificates, etc. and processes such as deposit processing, storage of giro, exchange of gift certificates, A gift certificate issuance, and the like.
Examples of such financial instruments include an automated teller machine (ATM) such as a cash dispenser (CD), a cash recycling machine, and the like. However, the financial instrument is not limited to the above-described example, and may be various devices for automating the financial business such as FIS (Financial Information System).
Hereinafter, an embodiment of the present invention will be described on the assumption that the financial instrument is a financial automatic instrument. However, this assumption is only for convenience of explanation, and the technical idea of the present invention is not limited to the financial automation equipment.
