Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a paper sheet ejecting/collecting apparatus that can supply desired paper sheets such as bank bills, etc. to a customer by aligning, ejecting and collecting the paper sheets in a storage tray, which functions as a dispense slot, without buckling the paper sheets.
  • a paper sheet ejecting/collecting apparatus that can collect a plurality of paper sheets having relatively low hardness in their aligned state is proposed as a paper sheet ejecting/collecting mechanism, for example, as disclosed by Japanese Laid-open Patent Publication No. 2002-167101.
  • a paper sheet storing/feeding apparatus that can securely feed paper sheets one by one by preventing the paper sheets, which are ejected in a longitudinal direction, from being jammed within an accommodation unit is proposed, for example, as disclosed by Japanese Laid-open Patent Publication No. 2000-007232.
  • FIG. 1 is a side view illustrating a configuration of a principal part of a mechanism for feeding/ejecting paper sheets to a paper sheet accommodation unit, which is common to the above described conventional paper sheet ejecting/collecting mechanisms.
  • FIG. 1 illustrates a storage tray 1 , paper sheets 2 , conveyer belts 3 ( 3 a , 3 b ), driving rollers ( 4 a , 4 b ), and a holding lever 5 .
  • the storage tray 1 collects and stores the paper sheets 2 that are ejected by the upper and the lower conveyer belts 3 as represented with an arrow 2 ′.
  • the holding lever 5 is lifted up from the initial position, which is represented with a dotted line 5 ′, by the paper sheets 2 that are ejected as represented with the arrow 2 ′, the holding lever 5 therefore presses the paper sheets 2 downward with its self-weight, and aligns the paper sheets 2 stored in the storage tray 1 to be flat.
  • the storage tray 1 and the paper holding lever 5 are assembled as one unit on the left side as illustrated in FIG. 1
  • the upper and the lower conveyer belts 3 are assembled as one unit on the right side as illustrated in FIG. 1 .
  • the paper holding lever 5 while the paper holding lever 5 is contacting the paper sheets, it continuously imposes a conveyance load on the paper sheets. This makes the paper sheets more prone to buckle while being ejected to the storage tray 1 .
  • one paper sheet 2 buckles while being ejected as described above, it is not flatly stored in the storage tray 1 . It can possibly curl up, wind around and swell, and also hinders subsequently ejected paper sheets 2 . This causes problems such as a misalignment and a jam of the paper sheets 2 .
  • the conventional ejecting mechanisms are structured so that a paper sheet freely drops after passing through the last roller for ejection.
  • the rear edge of one paper sheet gets entangled with the front edge of the succeeding paper sheet, leading to a misalignment, bending, etc.
  • An object of the present invention is to provide a paper sheet ejecting/collecting apparatus for aligning, ejecting and collecting paper sheets in a storage tray without buckling the paper sheets, in light of the above described conventional circumstances.
  • the paper sheet ejecting/collecting apparatus according to the present invention is configured by including: an accommodation unit in which a paper sheet is ejected and stored; a conveying unit for conveying the paper sheet to the accommodation unit; a curving unit for giving a curve habit to the paper sheet in a direction perpendicular to the surface of the paper sheet conveyed by the conveying unit; and a load imposing unit, which is arranged between the curving unit and the conveying unit, for imposing a downward load on the paper sheet by slidingly contacting the surface of the paper sheet conveyed by the conveying unit.
  • the accommodation unit is configured, for example, with a storage tray.
  • the conveying unit is configured with an upper belt linked between an upper roller on the downstream side of a conveyance direction and an upper roller on the upstream side of the conveyance direction, and a lower belt linked between a lower roller on the downstream side of the conveyance direction and a lower roller on the upstream side of the conveyance direction, and the widths of the upper belt and the lower belt are formed to be narrower than the size of the paper sheet in the direction perpendicular to the conveyance direction of the paper sheet.
  • the upper roller on the downstream side of the conveyance direction in a position closer to the accommodation unit than the lower roller on the downstream side of the conveyance direction.
  • the curving unit is configured, for example, with rollers arranged on both sides of the upper belt and the lower belt on a more upstream side of the conveyance direction than the accommodation unit, the circumferential surfaces of the rollers are arranged in positions higher than the conveyance surface of the upper belt and the lower belt for the paper sheet, and the central position of the rotational axis of each of the rollers is arranged in a position on a more upstream side of the conveyance direction than a last conveying part of the upper belt and the lower belt for the paper sheet.
  • the load imposing unit is configured, for example, with a rotational member having two holding levers branched from a support that functions as a rotational support, the support is arranged on the inner side of the upper belt on a more upstream side of the conveyance direction than the upper roller on the downstream side of the conveyance direction, the holding levers extend to the inside of the accommodation unit beyond the last conveying part of the upper belt and the lower belt for the paper sheet on both sides of the upper belt and the lower belt, and the freely rotating ends of the holding levers contact the upper surface, on which the paper sheet is put, of the accommodation unit or the upper surface of the topmost stored paper sheet in a standby state.
  • a resistance to upward and downward bending forces of the paper sheet is strengthened with curve habits given by the curving unit before the paper sheet reaches the last conveying part of the upper belt and the lower belt for the paper sheet, the holding levers are lifted up by the front edge of the paper sheet as a result of contacting the front edge of the paper sheet immediately after the paper sheet passes through the last conveying part of the upper belt and the lower belt for the paper sheet, and strengthen the curve habits given to the paper sheet by slidingly contacting the bottom of the curve habits of the paper sheet, which are given by the curving unit, and the paper sheet is conveyed in an obliquely upward conveyance direction immediately after passing through the last conveying part because the resistance to upward and downward bending forces is further strengthened with the strengthened curve habits.
  • the holding levers are released from being lifted up by the paper sheet and the freely rotating ends of the holding levers therefore drop immediately after the rear edge of the paper sheet passes through the last conveying part, a friction is generated between the paper sheet and the curving unit in the conveyance direction by pressing the paper sheet downward with a slidingly contacting part, and the paper sheet continues to be conveyed by the curving unit until the rear edge in the conveyance direction passes through the curving unit.
  • a paper sheet ejecting/collecting apparatus for aligning, ejecting and collecting paper sheets in a storage tray without bending the paper sheets can be provided.

  • the curving rollers 15 are arranged to give the curve habits 12 a - 2 to the bill 12 a being conveyed.
  • the curve habits 12 a - 2 are represented with linear lines as being bent at a sharp angle. Actually, however, the curve habits 12 a - 2 are smooth ones.
  • the bill 12 a being conveyed is provided with a high resistance to upward and downward bending forces by being given the curve habits (the curve habits 12 a - 2 in the direction perpendicular to the conveyance direction of the surface of the bill 12 a being conveyed) by the curving rollers 15 .
  • the front edge 12 a - 3 of the bill 12 a contacts the lower surfaces of the holding levers 16 immediately after passing through the last conveying part 23 , and lifts up the holding levers 16 while slipping contacting the lower surfaces of the holding levers 16 .

  • the bill 12 a is conveyed in the obliquely upward conveyance direction immediately after passing through the last conveying part 23 since the resistance to upward and downward bending forces is increased by strengthening the curving habit.
  • FIG. 5A is a top view illustrating an operation state immediately before the ejection of one paper sheet (bill?) 12 a to the storage tray 13 is terminated when the paper sheet is ejected by the above described paper sheet ejecting/collecting apparatus 10 .

  • the freely rotating ends 16 a of the holding levers 16 drop when they are released from being lifted up by the bill 12 a immediately after the rear edge of the bill 12 a passes through the last conveying part 23 , and press the bill 12 a downward between the curving rollers 15 on both sides, whereby a friction is generated between the bill 12 a and the curving rollers 15 in the conveyance direction, and the bill 12 a continues to be conveyed to the storage tray 13 by the curving rollers 15 until its rear edge in the conveyance direction passes through the curving rollers 15 .
  • the bill 12 a lifts up the holding levers 16 immediately after passing through the last conveying part 23 at which the conveyance force is effectively applied. Therefore, the bill 12 a can lift up the holding levers 16 without being buckled.
  • the holding levers 16 also function to curve the bill 12 a in the direction parallel to the conveyance direction. Therefore, the bill 12 a is slightly upwardly ejected at the conveyance angle of the last conveying part 23 . This eliminates the possibility that the ejected bill 12 a interferes with paper sheets 12 already stored in the storage tray 13 .
  • the bill 12 a being ejected to the storage tray 13 is conveyed along the holding levers 16 while its bottom curved by the curving rollers 15 is being pressed, whereby the effect of curving (resistance to upward and downward bending forces) is further strengthened, which is especially effective at conveying the bill 2 a in the longitudinal direction.
  • a conveyance force is generated by the friction between the curving rollers 15 and the holding levers 16 once the rear edge of the bill 12 a goes away from the last conveying part 23 , and the bill 12 a is completely conveyed up to its rear edge to the storage tray 13 while being pressed by the holding levers 16 . Therefore, a misalignment of the bills 12 in the storage tray 13 becomes less prone to occur.
