After the bill acceptor and the automatic vending machine 3 entered the sleep mode, the power supply of the bill acceptor will be started up only when a bill or license is inserted into the insertion slot 11 of the body 1, and the 5 power supply of the automatic vending machine 3 will be started up only after recognition of the authenticity of a bill or license been inserted into the insertion slot 11 of the body 1 of the bill acceptor. Therefore, the invention saves the consumption of power supply when the bill acceptor 10 and the automatic vending machine 3 are not used. If a person inserted an ordinary sheet member or a counterfeit bill or license into the insertion slot 11 of the body 1, the automatic vending machine 3 will not be waked up. By means of this two-step power control design, the invention effectively 15 saves the consumption of power supply, avoiding mistaken start-up of the automatic vending machine 3 to waste power consumption and lowering the automatic vending machine running cost.
Further, the indication module 271 of the user interface 20 unit 27 transmits work status data to the automatic vending machine 3, enabling the automatic vending machine 3 to display the message through a display screen, and therefore a user can know the work status of the automatic vending machine 3 in time. Further, the automatic vending machines 3 provides an 25 input device for enabling a user to input signals to the DIP switch module 272 of the user interface unit 27, driving the DIP switch module 272 to operate subject to the input signal. The input device of the automatic vending machine can be a set of operation buttons, a touch screen or switch means.
30 Referring to FIGS. 3 and 4 again, the power-saving power supply module 25 is adapted to receive different input voltages. The relatively higher input voltage, for example, 24V is inputted into the first voltage converter 251 and the second voltage converter 252. The relatively lower input 35 voltage, for example, 12V is inputted into the second voltage converter 252 and the control switch 253. The second voltage converter 252 outputs the converted power supply to the control switch 253. The voltage detection and protection unit 254 is electrically connected with the control switch 253 and 8 electrically connected to the posterior circuit of the first voltage converter 251. The first voltage converter 251 outputs the converted power supply to the high/low voltage converters 255, which convert input power supply into different voltages 5 for the body 1, the motor 151, the bill-checking optical transmitter 212, the automatic vending machine 3 or other component parts for working, or directly transmit input power supply to the body 1, the motor 151, the bill-checking optical transmitter 212, the automatic vending machine 3 or other 10 component parts for working.
The voltage detection and protection unit 254 can detect the output voltage of the first voltage converter 251, and cuts off power supply when the output voltage of the first voltage converter 251 is higher than a predetermined upper 15 limit value or lower than a predetermined lower limit value, protecting the internal electronic devices against a surge and prolonging the service life of the automatic vending machine 3.
Further, the power-saving power supply module 25 can be 20 designed to receive 12V, 24V or other input voltage. The high/low voltage converters 255 can be designed to convert 12V into 3.3V, 5V and/or other voltages.
Referring to FIGS. 1~4 again, the image sensor module 223 of the license recognition unit 22 can be a charge coupled 25 device (CCD) , complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (CMOS), contact image sensor (CIS) or any other type of digital camera adapted to pick up the image and/or anti-counterfeit characteristics (watermark, steel stamp, hidden barcode, laser mark, etc.) of a license or bill.
30 Referring to FIG. 2 again, the bill transferring means 152 of the transmission mechanism 15 can be comprised of sheet-transfer rollers, transmission belt means, caterpillar chain means, rolling balls, etc. that can be rotated to transfer a license or bill. Further, the bill holding-down 35 device 153 of the transmission mechanism 15 can be a crossed linkage, electromagnetic valve, push board or any other means capable of pushing a bill away from the rear end of the passage 12 onto the bill-bearing board 161 of the bill box 16.
In conclusion, the bill acceptor with license 9 recognition and improved power control arrangement of the present invention has the following features and advantages: 1. If the automatic vending machine 3 is not used within a predetermined time period after start-up, the automatic 5 vending machine 3 immediately enters the sleep mode. When a bill or license is inserted through the insertion slot 11 of the body 1 into the passage 12, the bill recognition unit 21 or license recognition unit 22 is driven to recognize the authenticity, par value and/or birth data of the inserted bill 10 or license. After recognition of the authenticity of the inserted bill or license, the bill recognition unit 21 or license recognition unit 22 outputs a signal to the powersaving power supply module 25, enabling the power-saving power supply module 25 to wake up the automatic vending machine 3.
15 Therefore, the automatic vending machine 3 is kept in the sleep mode when a user inserts a counterfeit license or bill or any other object into the insertion slot 11 of the body 1, saving power consumption and avoiding waste of power supply.
2. If the bill acceptor is not used within a 20 predetermined time period after start-up, the bill acceptor immediately enters the sleep mode while keeping the sensor switch 13 in action. When a user inserts a license or bill into the insertion slot 11 of the body 1, the sensor switch 13 will be induced to wake up the bill acceptor, driving the bill 25 acceptor to work. By means of the two-step sleep/wakeup functioning of the bill acceptor and the automatic vending machine 3, the invention effectively saves the consumption of power supply, avoiding waste of power supply.
Although a particular embodiment of the invention has 30 been described in detail for purposes of illustration, various modifications and enhancements may be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Accordingly, the invention is not to be limited except as by the appended claims .
