Definitions

  • Our apparatus includes a cash box which is readily removable from the operating mechanism of the stacker. It has a large capacity. It is relatively simple in construction for the result achieved thereby.
  • One object of our invention is to provide apparatus for stacking bills received from a bill acceptor or the like.
  • Another object of our invention is to provide a bill stacking apparatus which has a readily removable cash box.
  • a further object of our invention is to provide a bill stacking apparatus which is relatively simple in construction.
  • our invention contemplates the provision of apparatus for stacking bills received from a bill acceptor or the like in which corrugated rollers at the outlet of the acceptor deliver each bill lengthwise to a space in front of a ram which is reciprocated in response to a signal from the bill acceptor to carry the bill through the mouth of a cash box and behind retaining flanges thereon against the action of a foam cushion so that bills sequentially fed to the space in front of the ram are collected in the cash box in a stack.
  • the cashbox of our assembly is readily removable from the operating mechanism.
  • FIG. 1 is a side elevation of our bill stacking appara-
  • FIG. 2 is a top plan view of our bill stacking appara-
  • FIG. 3 is an end elevation of our bill stacking appara-
  • FIG. 4 is a schematic view of the electrical control circuitry of our bill stacking apparatus.
  • our bill stacking apparatus indicated generally by the reference character 10 includes a cash box indicated generally by the reference character 12 including respective side plates 14 and 16 and a back plate 18 secured to flanges 20 and 22 on the side plates by any suitable means such for example as by rivets 24.
  • the base plate 26 of the cash box 12 is secured to flanges 29 and 30 running along the bottom of the side plates by any suitable means such for example as by rivets 32.
  • the operating mechanism 48 of our bill stacking apparatus includes a top plate 50 formed with side flanges 52 and 54. We secure respective guide blocks 56 and 58 to the top plate 50 adjacent to the flanges 52 and 54 by any suitable means such as screws 60.
  • the cash box 12 is adapted to be assembled on the operating mechanism 48 by sliding the hanger flanges 39 and 40 along the guide blocks 56 and 58. When the cash box is properly located as determined by the engagement of pin 44 with the operating mechanism 48, a U-shaped latch 61 pivotally supported on the guide blocks 56 and 58 is moved downwardly over the back of the cash box 12. To facilitate this operation we may incline the back edges of side plates 14 and 16 slightly inwardly at the tops thereof.
  • the operating mechanism back plate 62 with a flange 64 at the upper edge thereof adapted to be secured to the top plate 50 by any suitable means such for example as byscrews 66.
  • a base plate 68 integrally with the back plate 62.
  • Base plate 68 extends from the back plate 62 toward the cashbox 12.
  • a reinforcing member 70 extending between the base plate 68 and the top plate 50 and secured to the two members by any means such for example as by screws 72.
  • a motor 80 having an output shaft 82 provides, the input to the gearbox 78 so that the output shaft 84 thereof rotates in response to energization of the motor 80.
  • Shaft 84 carries a crank 86 having a pin 88 thereon which receives a bushing 90.
  • the ram 98 has a platelike configuration which, as will be explained more fully hereinbelow, is adapted to engage a bill over a substantial area of the surface thereof.
  • a strut 100 between the ram 98 at a point below the flange and the carriage base 94 adjacent to the right end thereof as viewed in FIG. 1.
  • a pair of generally U-shaped vertically extending inwardly opening guides 122 and 124 form an escrow chamber for the reception of bills in front of the flanges 36 and 38.
  • the bill acceptor or the like indicatedgenerally by the reference character 128, and a fragmentary portion of which is illustrated in FIG. 1, is provided with a pair of corrugated outlet rolls 130 and 132, the corrugations of which interdigitate so as to vertically straighten and slightly crease a bill being fed from the acceptor to the space formed by guides 122 and 124.
  • the action of the corrugating rollers on a bill is such that even a relatively limp bill, after having passed between the rollers, will not tend to collapse to the bottom of the escrow chamber formed in part by guides 122 and 124.
  • the dimensions of the chamber are such as to inhibit collapse of a bill.
  • the distance between the inboard edges of the lips or flanges 38 is somewhat less than the width of a bill being handled.
  • the ram 98 is higher than a bill is long.
  • the width of the ram, while permitting movement of the ram into the cash box between the lips 36 and 38 is sufficiently great that the ram engages a bill over a major part of the area thereof.
  • motor 80 is connected across terminals 134 and 136 of a suitable source of voltage in series with a noise-suppression R-C circuit including aresistor 138 and a capacitor 140.
  • the output of the bill acceptor or the like with which our assembly is used includes a terminal 142 which carries a potential of about 30 volts D.C., a ground terminal 144, and a terminal 146 at which a pulse appears when an acceptable bill has passed through the bill acceptor.
  • a voltage divider network 148 and 150 applies the pulse at terminal 146 to the base of a first transistor T-l having a collector resistor 152 and an emitter resistor 154.
  • the resultant signal appearing on resistor 154 is applied to the base of a second transistor T-2 to energize a relay winding R adapted to close a pair of normally open switches R-1 and R-2.
  • a noise-suppressing diode 156 across the winding of relay R.
  • switch R-l closes to complete a holding circuit for the winding R through a switch S-2 held in engagement with its normally open contact by a cam 160 on shaft 82 in the rest position of the apparatus.
  • This holding circuit maintains winding R energized after the actuating pulse disappears.
  • switch R-2 closes, it energizes motor 80 so that shaft 82 begins to rotate.
  • a cam 158 which holds a switch in engagement with its normally open contact in the rest position of the apparatus, permits the switch to move into engagement with its normally closed contact to complete a holding circuit for the motor.
  • cam 160 permits switch 8-2 to move into engagement with its normally closed contact.
  • a bill pass ing through the bill acceptor128 emerges from between rollers 130 and 132 in the direction of its length and enters the space between the guides 122 and 124 in front of the ram 98.
  • a pulse at terminal 146 indicating that an acceptable bill has passed through the bill acceptor causes motor to be energize'd for a single revolution.
  • crank 86 carrying pin 88 causes the carriage base 94 to reciprocate so that the ram 98 engages the bill andmoves it beyondthe flanges 36 and 38 against the action of the cushion 46. This operation continues until the cash box 12 is full.
  • up to one thousand bills canbe stacked in the cashbox 112.
  • the latch 61 can be raised to permit the full cash box 12 to be removed from the op-, erating assembly and a fresh cash box can be assembled in operative relationship thereto.
  • Our apparatus is capable of handling old, new or wrinkled bills without jamming.
  • Our assembly is simple in construction for the results achieved thereby.
  • Apparatus for stacking elongated bills received from a bill acceptor or the like which delivers an acceptable bill in the direction of the greater longitudinal length thereof and which frees a bill upon delivery thereof including in combination, a cash box having an elongated mouth, retaining lips extending along the longitudinal edges of said mouth, means forming a narrow elongated escrow chamber in front of said mouth and adapted to receive a freed bill with said bill supported on one of the shorter lateral edges thereof, means at the outlet of said acceptor for imparting to a bill being delivered from said acceptor to said escrow chamber longitudinal crease to inhibit movement of said bill from said position in said escrow chamber in which the bill is supported on said shorter lateral edge thereof after being freed, a flat ram elongated in the direction of elongation of said mouth, the dimension of said ram being such as to engage a bill overa major part of the area thereof, means mounting saidram for move ment from a home position at a side of
