Definitions

  • ABSTRACT A method and apparatus for receiving sheets of paper of varying sizes, such for example as bank notes or paper currency, for use with automatic vending machines.
  • the device has a first inner slot longer than the longest paper sheet expected to be received which is located in a revolving assembly composed of spaced discs.
  • Fixed guide members located on each side of each disc having annular surfaces spaced concentric with the outer surfaces of the disc, form a second slot into which each currency sheet is transferred on an individual basis from the inner slot to the outer slot.
  • the discs are revolved one revolution in the opposite direction to discharge a group of currency sheets into a repository, or alternatively into a compartment for return to the user of the device.
  • German Offenlegunschrift No. 2,028,694 which utilizes a rotary drum in which the periphery of the drum is, for the major part, surrounded by two endless belts. In the space between the belts and the drum, the notes are stored.
  • the arrangement requires a plurality of light barrier monitoring devices with corresponding logic circuitry, and requires a fairly large amount of space for the return run of the endless belts.
  • a generally similar storage device is also disclosed in U.S. Pat. No. 3,162,439, in which rotary discs have slots which open towards their outer periphery. Sheets or documents to be stored are introduced into the slots in the discs by conveyor rollers operating at a speed higher than the peripheral speed of the discs; when the discs continue to rotate, the sheets or documents are pushed into the slot in the disc, over approximately one-quarter revolution of the discs, by means of conveyor rollers which slide against the periphery of the discs also at a higher speed.
  • An abutment is arranged outside the conveyor belts, stops the sheets, pushes them out of the slots, and deposits them in a sack.
  • Such a device represents a permanent storage arrangement, but does not afford the possibility of returning one or more sheets of currency which have just been inserted.
  • Another object is to provide a novel storage device requiring a small amount of space and being of low cost, which can temporarily store a plurality of sheets of paper currency or bank notes of different sizes for future delivery, either to a permanent repository or to a currency return compartment.
  • a still further object of the invention is to provide a novel paper sheet storage device having an inner slot greater in length than the maximum length of any paper sheet to be received, an outer independent storage slot that is concentric with the inner slot for accumulating and holding several sheets of currency with means for rotating the storage device in one direction to transfer a paper sheet from the inner slot to the outer slot, and in the opposite direction to transfer the group of paper sheets from the outer slot either to a permanent repository or to a currency return compartment.
  • FIG. 1 is a side elevation view in section taken along line A-A of FIG. 2 of the storage device of the present invention
  • FIG. 2 is a top plan view of the storage device of FIG.
  • FIG. 3 is an electrical circuit diagram of the motor and circuits used for controlling the motor driving the device of FIG. 1;
  • FIG. 4 is an end elevation in section showing the drive mechanism for the rings
  • FIG. 5 is an exploded pictorial view showing the preferred drive arrangement between a gear wheel and the ring unit employing a spiral spring;
  • FIG. 6 is a diagrammatic view of the ring unit and fixed guide members showing the ring unit revolving in a direction to transfer a currency sheet from the inner slot to the outer slot;
  • FIG. 7 is a view similar to FIG. 6 but showing the ring member rotating in a direction to remove currency sheets from the outer slot;
  • FIG. 8 is a timing chart illustrating the relative times of movement of the various parts in the storage device of FIGS. 1 through 7.
  • the document receiving and storage device of the present invention includes a first endless belt 3 which passes under roller 4 and around roller 5 as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.
  • the insertion slot 1 for a bank note 2 is between the belt at roller 5 and guide plate 11, and a driven roll 10 together with belt 3 convey the bank note 2 into the opening 13 of the storage member.
  • Each of the belts 3 and 30 may comprise three narrow individual bands which run one behind the other as shown in FIG. 2. Accordingly, the guide rolls 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 are also each provided in triplicate. Further deflection rollers (not shown) are disposed on the left-hand side in FIGS. 1 and 2 and form a closed return path for the endless belts 3 and 3a.
  • the signal transmitter 100 may be either a switch which is actuated directly by the bank note as by way of a sensing lever, or any radiation sensitive device in which for example a light beam is influenced by the bank note.
  • the storage member comprises four identical rings 15 having an outer annular shaped surface and three spacer posts 16 which hold the rings apart and parallel to each other.
  • the spacer posts I6 are secured to mounting flanges I8 which are mounted for rotation about a horizontal axis 18a between two outside fixed plates (see FIG. 2).
  • the guide plates 23 are located on opposite sides of each of the four rings 15 as shown in FIG. 2.
  • the guide plates 23 have a shape similar to that of an annular sector and have an inner diameter which is slightly greater than the outer diameter of the rings 15 to thereby provide a circular outer slot 24.
  • the radial thickness of outer circular slot 24 should be sufficient to receive several bank notes placed one on top of the other.
  • the thickness of the inner slot 14 needs to have a radial thickness sufficient only to handle a single bank note. Just beyond the end I30 of the inner slot 14, when ring I is in its document receiving position as illustrated in FIG.
  • the fixed annular guide members each have a fixed abutment 26 which comprises a catch member 27 that extends radially inwardly to a distance closer to the rotation axis 180 than the end 13a of slot 14 in ring 15.
  • the abutment edges 28 of the catch members 27 serve to form the abutment for engaging the edges of bank notes stored in slot 14 as illustrated in FIG. 6.
  • the two marginal plates 17 on opposite sides of the storage device are held together by the three spacer columns 29, 30 and 31 shown also in FIG. I (in FIG. 2 the spacer column 29 is partly cut away).
  • the spacer columns 29, 30 and 3] have recesses 32, 33 and 34 of a width corresponding to the thickness of the guide members 23.
  • Guide members 23 are provided with two spacer columns 29 and 31 at their points of contact, which lie approximately diametrically opposite to each other with respect to the rotational axis 18a of the rings 15.
  • Recesses 36 and 37 are adapted to the diameter of the recesses 32 and 34, respectively.
  • rollers 19 which are mounted on shaft 22 carried by rings 15. Rings are provided with slots 2] and springs to allow rollers 19 to move in a radial direction to thus be spring biased against belt 3.
  • the rotatable rings 15 are each advantageously formed from stamped metal sheet portions, or they may be injection molded with a plastic material.
  • the plates I7 are secured to the spacer columns 29,30 and 31 by screws 50.
  • To assemble the storage dsevice only two of the diametrically opposed spacer columns 29 and 31 are screwed into place. Because the spacer column is not then in the way, guide members 23 can be introduced from the right, as viewed in FIG. 1. While this is done, the guide members 23 are compressed inwardly to such an extent that their recesses 36 and 37 engage with the correspondingly shaped recesses in the spacer columns 29 and 31, respectively. After the third spacer column 30 has been set in place, the guide portions 23 are then finally secured in a fixed position.
  • the rotatable rings contain an entrainment lever 38 shown in FIGS. 1, 6, and 7 which is mounted on a ring 15 for pivotal movement about pin 38a and biased to its outward position as illustrated in FIGS. I and 7 by a suitable spring, as illustrated.
  • the lever 38 has an abutment edge surface 39 that extends radially outwardly beyond the outer surface of the circular slot 24, but which can be forced inwardly by a bank note to the position as illustrated in FIG. 6.
  • the abutment edges 39 normally project beyond the outside diameter of the outer slot 24, except when that part of the entrainment lever 38 which projects beyond the outer diameter of the rings 15 is displaced radially inwardly relative to the rings 15 against this spring force. to such an extent that a bank note may pass over the outer edge of lever 38 while being transferred from the inner slot I4 to the outer slot 24, as illustrated in FIG. 6.
  • fixed guide plates 40 having free ends extending into the spaces between two adjacent guide members 23 and in the region of the rings 15 are provided to deliver the bank notes from outer slot 24.
  • a further fixed guide plate 42 which extends over the entire width between the plates 17, lies adjacent the lower ends of the guide members 23 and forms a passage 43 which leads over driven roll 46 to two driven conveyor rollers 44 at the inlet end of a main money box 45.
  • the guide and directing plates 40, 4] and 42, the conveyor rollers 44 and 46, and the main money box 45 are not shown in FIG. 2.
  • a switching plate 47 is arranged between the ends of the guide members 23 and the guide plate 41 on the one hand, and the guide rolls 7 and the driven roller 46 on the other hand, and is mounted for pivotal movement on a shaft 48.
  • gears 49 and 490 Arranged between the outermost guide member 23 and plate 17 as shown in FIG. 2 are drive gears 49 and 490 that are used for driving the storage device rings 15 in either a clockwise direction, or a counterclockwise direction, one revolution at a time.
  • a spiral spring 56 has its inner end 57 fixed to turn with the cam member 58 which is attached to turn with rings 15.
  • the outer end 59 of spiral spring 56 is engaged with a pin 60 of the last gear 49a in the gear train 49.
  • gear 490 turns in the direction indicated by arrow A.
  • the cam member 58 is unable at first to follow the rotation of gear 49 because a latch 61 engages an abutment surface 62.
  • a trigger member 64 with an oblique surface 63 engages and lifts latch 61 so that cam member 58 begins to rotate also in the direction of arrow A.
  • latch 61 By the time latch 61 is raised, the bank note has been placed in slot 14.
  • cam 58 and rings 15 rotate in the counterclockwise direction as illustrated in FIG. 6, the bank note edge engages surfaces 28 of fixed guide members 23 and is backed out of inner slot 14 into outer slot 24 over the dcpessed edge of lever 38 as illustrated in FIG. 6.
  • an alignment of the bank notes that may be obliquely oriented in slot 14 takes place. After one revolution of rings 15, the bank note is positioned in the outer slot 24.
  • belt 3 and 3a are drive in a reverse direction so that the bank notes are fed over rolls 46 and belts 3a to rollers 44.
  • switching plate 47 is pivoted to the dotted line position as shown in FIG. 1, then the belts 3 and 3a are driven in their initial direction so that the bank notes are delivered back to the customer at a bank note return compartment.
  • a bank note 2 is introduced into the insertion slot 1 and actuates the signal transmitter 100 which causes closing of the contact 51 shown in FIG. 3, which in turn causes energization of relay 52 having switch contacts 53 and S4.
  • the electrical signal from the signal transmitter a starts the drive motor 55 for the storage operation which continues so long as switch 54 remains closed.
  • the relay 52 is held closed by a circuit including contacts 53 and contacts 74 of normally energized relay 73.
  • Switch 71 may include a magnetizable leaf contact and be located adjacent magnet 72 which is carried by gear 490, as shown in FIG. 4. Thus, the opening of switch 71 interrupts the current flow to relay 73; the opening of contacts 74 interrupts the current flow through relay 52; and the opening of contacts 54 stops the driving motor 55.
  • the bank note 2 is passed between the conveyor rolls 10 and the endless belts 3 along the guide plate 11 to the rolls 19 which run resiliently against the endless belts, and pushed into the inner slot 14 until the end of the bank note comes out from between the rolls 19 and the endless belts 3.
  • a spiral spring 56 arranged in the axis of the rotatable rings is simultaneously being tensioned by way of the drive wheel 49a (FIGS. 4 and 5).
  • the end 57 of spring 56 which is stationary during this process, is connected to the rings 15, and the rings 15 are at first prevented from being rotated by means of the latch member 61.
  • the gear 490 tensioning the spiral spring reaches a given position, which ensures that the bank note to be stored is satisfactorily inserted entirely into the slot 14, the latch member 61 is mechanically released and a little later, the magnetic switch 71 is actuated by way of the magnet 72 inserted in the gear 490 with the temporary opening of the magnetic switch 71 stopping the drive motor 55.
  • the bank notes After the beginning of the rotary movement of rings 15, the bank notes have their end which was inserted first. placed against the edges 28 of the abutments 26, and are pushed out of the inner slot 14. When this occurs, any bank notes which were possibly positioned askew in the slot 14 are simultaneously aligned. After the rings 15 have carried out the rotary movement, the bank notes are in the second outer slot 24.
  • a second bank note can now be inserted in inner slot 14 after which a further rotary movement of the rings in the counterclockwise direction occurs, thereby placing the second bank note in the outer slot 24 on the inside of the first bank note.
  • a plurality of notes can be stored in this way.
  • the storage means is unloaded by rotating the rings 15 in the clockwise direction, as shown in FIG. 7.
  • the bank notes which are stored in the outer slot 24 are pushed out along the periphery of the slot 24 by the abutment edges 39 of the lever 38 that is mounted to turn with the rotatable rings 15.
  • the switching member 47 in the horizontal position shown in FIG. 1, the bank notes which are pushed out of the slot 24 pass between the conveyor rollers 46 and the endless belts 3a which pass them to the two conveyor rollers 44 and thus into the main money box 45. This process takes place when a preceding check on authenticity of the bank notes gave a positive result and the correct amount of bank notes has been introduced into the vending machine.
  • the switching member 47 is then pivoted into the position shown in broken lines in FIG. 1.
  • the storage means is unloaded, after passing through the opening 25 of the outer slot 24, the bank notes pass the guide rolls 7 between the two belts 3 and 3a which are moving in the same direction.
  • the belts 3 and 3a carry the notes to a return slot (not shown) which lies away to the left of FIG. I.
  • the resilient arrangement of the lever 38 on the r0- tatable rings 15 is required because the abutment surface 39 thereof must project beyond the outside diameter of the outer slot 24 in order to remove the bank notes when the rings 15 are rotated.
  • the guide plate 41 serves as an inclined run-on surface for the outer surface of the lever 38 so that as the lever 38 passes the guide roll 6, it is pressed into its inwardly displaced position.
  • the lever 38 In the opposite direction of rotation, the lever 38 itself is shaped to have the necessary run-on surface.
  • the described drive of the rings 15 for the rotation necessary for the storage of a bank note and with the use of a spiral spring and of a latch, represents a me ferred embodiment of the invention.
  • the drive of the rings 15 may also be accomplished in other manners, such for example as with the use of a second reversible motor.
