Description

紙葉類集積装置、及び紙葉類取扱装置Paper sheet stacking device and paper sheet handling device
　本発明は、紙葉類（例えば、紙幣、小切手、有価証券など）を集積する紙葉類集積装置、及び、この紙葉類集積装置を備える紙葉類取扱装置に関する。 The present invention relates to a paper sheet stacking apparatus that stacks paper sheets (for example, banknotes, checks, securities, etc.) and a paper sheet handling apparatus including the paper sheet stacking apparatus.
　従来、現金自動預け払い機（ＡＴＭ：Automated Teller Machine）などの紙葉類取扱装置において、紙幣、小切手、有価証券などの紙葉類を集積する紙葉類集積装置が配置されている。このような紙葉類集積装置において、搬送される紙葉類を、羽根車の互いに隣接する羽根の間に受け入れて回転搬送し、集積部に集積する技術が知られている。羽根車を用いた集積装置は、サイズの異なる複数種類の紙葉類を整列させる能力に優れている。 Conventionally, in a paper sheet handling apparatus such as an automated teller machine (ATM), a paper sheet stacking apparatus for stacking paper sheets such as banknotes, checks and securities is arranged. In such a paper sheet stacking apparatus, a technique is known in which transported paper sheets are received between the blades adjacent to each other of the impeller, are rotated and transported, and are stacked in a stacking unit. An accumulator using an impeller has an excellent ability to align a plurality of types of paper sheets having different sizes.
　羽根車を用いた集積装置において、紙葉類を羽根車までガイドするガイド手段と、紙葉類のサイズに応じてガイド手段を退避させる退避手段とを備える集積装置が知られている（例えば、特許文献１参照）。 In an accumulating apparatus using an impeller, an accumulating apparatus is known that includes guide means for guiding paper sheets to the impeller, and retracting means for retracting the guide means according to the size of the paper sheets (for example, Patent Document 1).
　なお、印刷機の排紙装置に関する技術ではあるが、羽根車を挟んで位置する一対の紙ガイド部材が位置調整可能に取り付けられる技術が知られている（例えば、特許文献２参照）。 In addition, although it is the technique regarding the paper discharge apparatus of a printing machine, the technique in which a pair of paper guide member located on both sides of an impeller is attached so that position adjustment is possible is known (for example, refer patent document 2).

　図３Ａ及び図３Ｂは、第１の参考技術に係る紙葉類集積装置１１０を示す側面図である。 3A and 3B are side views showing the paper sheet stacking apparatus 110 according to the first reference technique.
　図３Ａ及び図３Ｂに示す紙葉類集積装置１１０は、収容部１１１と、羽根車１１２と、第１のガイド部１１３と、第２のガイド部１１４と、搬送ローラ１１５と、を備える。 3A and 3B includes a storage unit 111, an impeller 112, a first guide unit 113, a second guide unit 114, and a conveying roller 115.
　収容部１１１には、羽根車１１２により搬送された紙幣１００が斜めに積み重ねられていく。収容部１１１に収容された紙幣１００は、搬送方向（矢印Ｄ１１）における前端１００ａが斜め下向きで、後端１００ｂが斜め上向きに位置する。 In the accommodating part 111, the banknotes 100 conveyed by the impeller 112 are stacked diagonally. The banknote 100 accommodated in the accommodating portion 111 is positioned such that the front end 100a is obliquely downward and the rear end 100b is obliquely upward in the transport direction (arrow D11).
　羽根車１１２は、羽根車本体１１２ａと、この羽根車本体１１２ａの外周に設けられた複数の羽根１１２ｂと、を有する。羽根車１１２は、回転軸１１２ｃを中心に回転しながら（矢印Ｄ１２）、互いに隣接する羽根１１２ｂの間に挿入された紙幣１００を搬送する。 The impeller 112 has an impeller body 112a and a plurality of blades 112b provided on the outer periphery of the impeller body 112a. The impeller 112 conveys the banknote 100 inserted between the blades 112b adjacent to each other while rotating around the rotation shaft 112c (arrow D12).
　第１のガイド部１１３及び第２のガイド部１１４は、羽根車１１２の上流に互いに対向するように配置されている。また、第１のガイド部１１３及び第２のガイド部１１４は、搬送ローラ１１５により羽根車１１２に向けて搬送される紙幣１００をガイドする。なお、第１のガイド部１１３は、第２のガイド部１１４よりも羽根車１１２の回転方向（矢印Ｄ１２）の下流側（図３Ａ及び図３Ｂでは右上側）に位置する。 The first guide part 113 and the second guide part 114 are arranged upstream of the impeller 112 so as to face each other. Further, the first guide portion 113 and the second guide portion 114 guide the bill 100 conveyed toward the impeller 112 by the conveyance roller 115. In addition, the 1st guide part 113 is located in the downstream (upper right side in FIG. 3A and FIG. 3B) of the rotation direction (arrow D12) of the impeller 112 rather than the 2nd guide part 114. FIG.
　第１のガイド部１１３の搬送方向（矢印Ｄ１１）の下流側の先端部分には、先端に近づくほど第２のガイド部１１４から遠ざかるように傾斜した先端傾斜部１１３ａが形成されている。 At the distal end portion of the first guide portion 113 on the downstream side in the conveyance direction (arrow D11), a distal end inclined portion 113a that is inclined so as to become farther from the second guide portion 114 as it approaches the distal end is formed.
　先端傾斜部１１３ａは、第２のガイド部１１４との間隔が大きくなるように傾斜するほど、羽根１１２ｂの間に侵入するまで十分に紙幣１００をガイドすることができない。そのため、特に、前端１００ａが反っているなどの変形した紙幣１００が、図３ＢのＡ部に示すように、羽根１１２ｂの間に侵入することができず、ジャムや収容部１１１における不整列が起こり得る。このような集積装置１１０におけるジャムや不整列は、係員による紙幣１００の除去などの作業を必要とする。 The tip inclined portion 113a cannot sufficiently guide the banknote 100 until it enters between the blades 112b, as the tip inclined portion 113a is inclined so that the distance from the second guide portion 114 is increased. Therefore, in particular, the deformed banknote 100 such as the front end 100a warped cannot enter between the blades 112b as shown in part A of FIG. 3B, and jamming or misalignment in the accommodation part 111 occurs. obtain. Such jamming or misalignment in the stacking device 110 requires work such as removal of the banknote 100 by an attendant.
　図４は、第２の参考技術に係る紙葉類集積装置１２０を示す側面図である。
　図４に示す紙葉類集積装置１２０は、第１のガイド部１２３の先端傾斜部１２３ａが図３Ａ及び図３Ｂに示す第１のガイド部１１３の先端傾斜部１１３ａよりも第２のガイド部１１４との間隔が小さくなるように傾斜する点のみにおいて図３Ａ及び図３Ｂに示す紙葉類集積装置１１０と相違する。 FIG. 4 is a side view showing the paper sheet stacking apparatus 120 according to the second reference technique.
In the paper sheet stacking apparatus 120 shown in FIG. 4, the leading end inclined portion 123a of the first guide portion 123 is more second than the leading end inclined portion 113a of the first guide portion 113 shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B. It differs from the paper sheet stacking apparatus 110 shown in FIG. 3A and FIG.
　図４に示す先端傾斜部１２３ａは、図３Ａ及び図３Ｂに示す先端傾斜部１１３ａと比較して、大きく開放していないため、紙幣１００を羽根１１２ｂに侵入するまで、より十分にガイドすることができる。しかし、図４のＢ部に示すように、前端１００ａが羽根１１２ｂの間に侵入した紙幣１００は、後端１００ｂ側の部分において先端傾斜部１２３ａに接触して、紙幣１００が羽根１１２ｂの間から脱落することがある。これにより、図４に示す紙葉類集積装置１２０においても、図３Ａ及び図３Ｂに示す紙葉類集積装置１１０と同様に、ジャムや収容部１１１における不整列が起こり得る。 The tip inclined portion 123a shown in FIG. 4 is not widely opened as compared to the tip inclined portion 113a shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B, so that the banknote 100 can be guided more sufficiently until it enters the blade 112b. it can. However, as shown in part B of FIG. 4, the banknote 100 in which the front end 100a has entered between the blades 112b comes into contact with the tip inclined portion 123a in the portion on the rear end 100b side, and the banknote 100 is inserted between the blades 112b. May fall off. As a result, in the paper sheet stacking apparatus 120 shown in FIG. 4, as in the paper sheet stacking apparatus 110 shown in FIGS. 3A and 3B, jamming and misalignment in the storage unit 111 can occur.
　このような紙葉類集積装置１１０，１２０におけるジャムや不整列は、羽根車１１２へ侵入するまでの紙幣１００の確実なガイドと、羽根１１２ｂに侵入した紙幣１００の第１のガイド部１１３に対する接触の回避とを両立させることが困難であることにより生ずる。そのため、上記のような、紙葉類を羽根車までガイドするガイド手段と、紙葉類のサイズに応じてガイド手段を退避させる退避手段とを備える集積装置（例えば、特許文献１参照）においても同様の問題が起こり得る。 Such a jam or misalignment in the paper sheet stacking devices 110 and 120 is a reliable guide of the banknote 100 until it enters the impeller 112 and contact with the first guide portion 113 of the banknote 100 that has entered the blade 112b. This is because it is difficult to achieve both of avoidance of the above. Therefore, in the stacking apparatus (see, for example, Patent Document 1) including the guide means for guiding the paper sheets to the impeller and the retreat means for retracting the guide means according to the size of the paper sheets as described above. Similar problems can occur.
　本発明は、このような点に鑑みてなされたものであり、紙葉類を確実に集積することができる紙葉類集積装置及び紙葉類取扱装置を提供することを目的とする。 The present invention has been made in view of these points, and an object of the present invention is to provide a paper sheet stacking apparatus and a paper sheet handling apparatus that can reliably stack paper sheets.

　以下、実施の形態に係る紙葉類取扱装置及び紙葉類集積装置について、図面を参照しながら説明する。 Hereinafter, a paper sheet handling apparatus and a paper sheet stacking apparatus according to an embodiment will be described with reference to the drawings.
　図１Ａ及び図１Ｂは、実施の形態に係る紙葉類取扱装置１の内部構造を示す側面図である。なお、図１Ａに示す搬送経路Ｄ１，Ｄ２及び図１Ｂに示す搬送経路Ｄ３，Ｄ４は、搬送路５０における紙幣１００の流れを表すものである。 1A and 1B are side views showing the internal structure of the paper sheet handling apparatus 1 according to the embodiment. Note that the conveyance paths D1 and D2 illustrated in FIG. 1A and the conveyance paths D3 and D4 illustrated in FIG. 1B represent the flow of the banknote 100 in the conveyance path 50.
　図１Ａ及び図１Ｂに示す紙葉類取扱装置１は、紙葉類集積装置１０と搬送路５０とを備える。例えば、紙葉類取扱装置１は、入出金部モジュール２０、上部モジュール３０、及び下部モジュール４０の計３つのモジュールを組立てられて構成されている。 The paper sheet handling apparatus 1 shown in FIGS. 1A and 1B includes a paper sheet stacking apparatus 10 and a conveyance path 50. For example, the paper sheet handling apparatus 1 is configured by assembling a total of three modules: a deposit / withdrawal module 20, an upper module 30, and a lower module 40.
　入出金部モジュール２０は、上部モジュール３０の前方側（図１Ａ及び図１Ｂでは右側）の上部に配置されている。入出金部モジュール２０は、入金部２１と、出金部２２とを有する。なお、入出金部モジュール２０には、後述する紙葉類集積装置１０が配置されている。 The deposit / withdrawal module 20 is disposed on the upper side of the upper module 30 (on the right side in FIGS. 1A and 1B). The deposit / withdrawal module 20 includes a depositing unit 21 and a dispensing unit 22. Note that a paper sheet stacking device 10 to be described later is disposed in the deposit / withdrawal module 20.
　入金部２１は、顧客により投入される紙幣１００を受け入れる。紙幣１００は、紙葉類の一例である。紙葉類としては、紙幣１００に限らず、小切手、有価証券などを用いることもできる。 The depositing unit 21 accepts the banknote 100 inserted by the customer. The banknote 100 is an example of paper sheets. The paper sheets are not limited to the banknote 100, but checks, securities, and the like can also be used.
　出金部２２は、紙葉類取扱装置１の外部へ排出される紙幣１００、すなわち顧客へ返却される紙幣１００を紙葉類取扱装置１の内部から受け入れる。 The withdrawal unit 22 accepts the banknote 100 discharged to the outside of the paper sheet handling apparatus 1, that is, the banknote 100 returned to the customer from the inside of the paper sheet handling apparatus 1.
　上部モジュール３０は、下部モジュール４０の上部に配置されている。上部モジュール３０は、鑑別部３１を有する。この鑑別部３１は、搬送路５０における紙幣１００の搬送経路中（図１Ａに示す搬送経路Ｄ１，Ｄ２及び図１Ｂに示す搬送経路Ｄ３，Ｄ４）に配置されている。鑑別部３１は、紙幣１００が正常券であるか受付不可券（偽券など）であるかを鑑別する。 The upper module 30 is disposed above the lower module 40. The upper module 30 has a discrimination unit 31. This discrimination part 31 is arrange | positioned in the conveyance path | route of the banknote 100 in the conveyance path 50 (conveyance path | route D1, D2 shown to FIG. 1A, and conveyance path | route D3, D4 shown to FIG. 1B). The discrimination unit 31 discriminates whether the banknote 100 is a normal ticket or an unacceptable ticket (such as a fake ticket).
　下部モジュール４０は、紙幣１００が収容される第１～第４のカセット４１～４４と、リジェクトボックス４５とを有する。第１～第４のカセット４１～４４及びリジェクトボックス４５は、下部モジュール４０のほぼ全体を占めるように配置され、各々に紙幣１００が積層された状態で収容される。 The lower module 40 includes first to fourth cassettes 41 to 44 in which the banknote 100 is accommodated, and a reject box 45. The first to fourth cassettes 41 to 44 and the reject box 45 are arranged so as to occupy almost the entire lower module 40, and each banknote 100 is stored in a stacked state.
　例えば、第１～第４のカセット４１～４４には再利用される紙幣１００が収容され、リジェクトボックス４５には汚れや破損があるために再利用されない紙幣１００が収容される。 For example, the first to fourth cassettes 41 to 44 contain bills 100 that are reused, and the reject box 45 contains bills 100 that are not reused due to dirt or damage.
　搬送路５０は、入出金部モジュール２０と、上部モジュール３０と、下部モジュール４０とに亘って配置されている。搬送路５０においては、駆動ローラ又は従動ローラである搬送ローラ５１によって紙幣１００が搬送される。もちろん、搬送ベルトなどの他の搬送手段が紙幣１００を搬送してもよい。 The conveyance path 50 is disposed across the deposit / withdrawal unit module 20, the upper module 30, and the lower module 40. In the conveyance path 50, the banknote 100 is conveyed by the conveyance roller 51 which is a drive roller or a driven roller. Of course, other conveyance means such as a conveyance belt may convey the banknote 100.
　図１Ａに示すように、搬送路５０においては、入金部２１から鑑別部３１へと搬送された紙幣１００が鑑別部３１により正常券であると判断されると、紙幣１００は、紙葉類集積装置１０へと搬送される（搬送経路Ｄ１）。また、鑑別部３１により受付不可券であると判断された紙幣１００は、出金部２２へと搬送される（搬送経路Ｄ２）。尚、受付不可券とは、紙幣でない券や所定以上に汚れや破損度の大きく正常と読み取れない紙幣等を示す。 As shown in FIG. 1A, in the transport path 50, when the banknote 100 transported from the depositing unit 21 to the discrimination unit 31 is determined to be a normal ticket by the discrimination unit 31, the banknote 100 is stacked on paper sheets. It is conveyed to the apparatus 10 (conveyance path D1). Moreover, the banknote 100 judged by the discrimination part 31 as an unacceptable ticket is conveyed to the withdrawal part 22 (conveyance path | route D2). The non-acceptable ticket refers to a ticket that is not a banknote or a banknote that cannot be read as normal because it has a degree of dirt or damage greater than a predetermined level.
　その後、顧客の操作により紙葉類集積装置１０にある正常券のみ預金又は貯金する指示があった場合には、図１Ｂに示すように、紙葉類集積装置１０に一時的に収容された紙幣１００は、再び鑑別部３１を通過するように搬送される。このときの鑑別部３１による鑑別で再利用できると鑑別された紙幣１００は、第１～第４のカセット４１～４４へと搬送される（搬送経路Ｄ３）。また、再利用しない紙幣或いは汚れなどがあり交換が必要な紙幣と鑑別された紙幣１００は、リジェクトボックス４５へと搬送される（搬送経路Ｄ４）。 Thereafter, when there is an instruction to deposit or save only the normal bills in the paper sheet stacking apparatus 10 by the operation of the customer, as shown in FIG. 1B, the banknotes temporarily stored in the paper sheet stacking apparatus 10 100 is conveyed so that it may pass through the discrimination part 31 again. The banknote 100 identified as being reusable in the discrimination by the discrimination unit 31 at this time is conveyed to the first to fourth cassettes 41 to 44 (conveyance path D3). Moreover, the banknote 100 discriminated from the banknote which is not reused, the dirt, or the like and needs to be exchanged is transported to the reject box 45 (transport path D4).
　なお、紙葉類集積装置１０は、紙葉類取扱装置１において一時的に紙幣１００を収容する一時収容部として配置されている。但し、紙葉類集積装置１０は、紙幣１００を収容するものであれば、第１～第４のカセット４１～４４やリジェクトボックス４５などの他の装置として配置されてもよい。 The paper sheet stacking apparatus 10 is arranged as a temporary storage unit that temporarily stores the banknote 100 in the paper sheet handling apparatus 1. However, the paper sheet stacking device 10 may be arranged as another device such as the first to fourth cassettes 41 to 44 and the reject box 45 as long as it stores the banknote 100.
　図２Ａ～図２Ｆは、実施の形態に係る紙葉類集積装置１０を示す側面図である。
　図２Ａ～図２Ｆに示す紙葉類集積装置１０は、収容部１１と、羽根車１２と、第１のガイド部１３と、第２のガイド部１４と、第３のガイド部１５と、通過検知センサ１６と、駆動部１７と、制御部１８と、繰出しローラ１９と、を備える。 2A to 2F are side views showing the paper sheet stacking apparatus 10 according to the embodiment.

　収容部１１は、第１の収容プレート１１ａと第２の収容プレート１１ｂとを有し、紙幣１００を収容する（図２Ｅ、図２Ｆ参照）。 The accommodating part 11 has the 1st accommodation plate 11a and the 2nd accommodation plate 11b, and accommodates the banknote 100 (refer FIG. 2E and FIG. 2F).
　第１の収容プレート１１ａは、羽根車本体１２ａから第２の収容プレート１１ｂの近傍に亘って配置されている。そして、第１の収容プレート１１ａは、羽根車１２により搬送される紙幣１００を、紙幣１００の前端１００ａに当接した状態で第２の収容プレート１１ｂ側までガイドする。 The first accommodation plate 11a is arranged from the impeller body 12a to the vicinity of the second accommodation plate 11b. And the 1st accommodation plate 11a guides the banknote 100 conveyed by the impeller 12 to the 2nd accommodation plate 11b side in the state contact | abutted to the front end 100a of the banknote 100. FIG.
　なお、第１の収容プレート１１ａは、羽根車１２の羽根１２ｂと干渉しないように、搬送方向（搬送経路Ｄ１）に延び互いに間隔を隔てて位置する複数の帯状の板材により形成するとよい。或いは、第１の収容プレート１１ａは、羽根１２ｂとの干渉部分を切り欠いて形成されていてもよい。 The first accommodation plate 11a may be formed of a plurality of strip-shaped plate materials that extend in the transport direction (transport path D1) and are spaced from each other so as not to interfere with the blades 12b of the impeller 12. Or the 1st accommodating plate 11a may be formed by notching the interference part with the blade | wing 12b.
　第２の収容プレート１１ｂは、第１の収容プレート１１ａと直交するように配置されている。第２の収容プレート１１ｂには、第１の収容プレート１１ａによりガイドされた紙幣１００が斜めに積み重ねられていく。収容部１１に収容された紙幣１００は、搬送方向（搬送経路Ｄ１）における前端１００ａが斜め下向きで、後端１００ｂが斜め上向きに位置する。 The second accommodation plate 11b is arranged so as to be orthogonal to the first accommodation plate 11a. The banknotes 100 guided by the first accommodation plate 11a are stacked on the second accommodation plate 11b obliquely. The banknote 100 accommodated in the accommodating portion 11 is positioned such that the front end 100a is obliquely downward and the rear end 100b is obliquely upward in the conveyance direction (conveyance path D1).
　羽根車１２は、円板状又は円柱状の羽根車本体１２ａと、この羽根車本体１２ａの外周に設けられた複数の羽根１２ｂと、を有する。複数の羽根１２ｂは、羽根車本体１２ａの外周面の周方向に等間隔に配置され、全体として渦巻き状をなすようにそれぞれが湾曲して形成されている。羽根１２ｂは、可撓性を有する。 The impeller 12 has a disc-shaped or columnar impeller body 12a and a plurality of blades 12b provided on the outer periphery of the impeller body 12a. The plurality of blades 12b are arranged at equal intervals in the circumferential direction of the outer peripheral surface of the impeller main body 12a, and are each curved so as to form a spiral shape as a whole. The blade 12b has flexibility.
　羽根車１２は、回転軸１２ｃを中心に、回転しながら（矢印Ｄ５：図２Ａ～図２Ｆでは時計回り）、互いに隣接する羽根１２ｂ－１，１２ｂ－２（図２Ｃ～図２Ｅ参照）の間に挿入された紙幣１００を搬送する。紙幣１００が羽根１２ｂの間から抜け落ちないように、羽根１２ｂの表面の摩擦係数は高いことが望ましい。なお、羽根車１２は、共通の回転軸１２ｃに複数配置（例えば、図２Ａ～図２Ｆの紙面に直交する方向に並列配置）されていて、複数の羽根車１２が協働して単一の紙幣１００を搬送してもよい。 While the impeller 12 rotates about the rotation shaft 12c (arrow D5: clockwise in FIGS. 2A to 2F), between the adjacent blades 12b-1 and 12b-2 (see FIGS. 2C to 2E) The banknote 100 inserted in is conveyed. It is desirable that the coefficient of friction of the surface of the blade 12b is high so that the bill 100 does not fall out between the blades 12b. A plurality of impellers 12 are arranged on a common rotating shaft 12c (for example, arranged in parallel in a direction perpendicular to the paper surface of FIGS. 2A to 2F), and the plurality of impellers 12 cooperate to form a single unit. The banknote 100 may be conveyed.
　第１のガイド部１３及び第２のガイド部１４は、互いに対向するように配置され、羽根車１２に向けて搬送される紙幣１００をガイドする。なお、第１のガイド部１３は、第２のガイド部１４よりも羽根車１２の回転方向（矢印Ｄ５）の下流側（図２Ａ～図２Ｆでは右上側）に位置する。また、第１のガイド部１３は、第３のガイド部１５の搬送方向（搬送経路Ｄ１）における前方（進行方向）側に位置する。そして、第１のガイド部１３及び第３のガイド部１５の両方が、第２のガイド部１４に対向して位置する。 The first guide part 13 and the second guide part 14 are arranged so as to face each other, and guide the bill 100 conveyed toward the impeller 12. The first guide portion 13 is located downstream of the second guide portion 14 in the rotational direction (arrow D5) of the impeller 12 (upper right side in FIGS. 2A to 2F). The first guide portion 13 is located on the front (traveling direction) side in the transport direction (transport path D1) of the third guide portion 15. Then, both the first guide portion 13 and the third guide portion 15 are positioned to face the second guide portion 14.
　第１のガイド部１３、第２のガイド部１４、及び第３のガイド部１５は、図１Ａ及び図１Ｂに示す紙葉類取扱装置１の搬送路５０の一部であってもよい。搬送路５０の搬送ローラ５１は、第１のガイド部１３、第２のガイド部１４、及び第３のガイド部１５にも配置され、紙幣１００を羽根車１２へと搬送する（搬送経路Ｄ１）。 1st guide part 13, 2nd guide part 14, and 3rd guide part 15 may be a part of conveyance path 50 of paper sheet handling device 1 shown in Drawing 1A and Drawing 1B. The conveyance roller 51 of the conveyance path 50 is also arranged in the first guide part 13, the second guide part 14, and the third guide part 15, and conveys the banknote 100 to the impeller 12 (conveyance path D1). .
　なお、第１のガイド部１３及び第２のガイド部１４は、第１の収容プレート１１ａと同様に、羽根車１２の羽根１２ｂと干渉しないように、搬送方向（搬送経路Ｄ１）に延び互いに間隔を隔てて位置する複数の帯状の板材により形成するとよい。或いは、第１のガイド部１３及び第２のガイド部１４は、羽根１２ｂとの干渉部分を切り欠いて形成されていてもよい。 In addition, the 1st guide part 13 and the 2nd guide part 14 are extended in a conveyance direction (conveyance path | route D1) so that it may not interfere with the blade | wing 12b of the impeller 12 similarly to the 1st accommodating plate 11a. It is good to form with the some strip | belt-shaped board | plate material located on both sides. Or the 1st guide part 13 and the 2nd guide part 14 may be formed by notching the interference part with the blade | wing 12b.
　第１のガイド部１３は、搬送方向（搬送経路Ｄ１）における第１のガイド部１３の上流側の端部に位置する回動軸１３ａを中心に所定角度内の範囲を回動（両方向に回転）する。これにより、第１のガイド部１３は、第１の位置Ｐ１（図２Ａ、図２Ｂ、及び図２Ｆ参照）と第２の位置Ｐ２（図２Ｃ～図２Ｅ）とに移動する。 The first guide unit 13 rotates within a predetermined angle (rotates in both directions) around a rotation shaft 13a located at the upstream end of the first guide unit 13 in the conveyance direction (conveyance path D1). ) Accordingly, the first guide portion 13 moves to the first position P1 (see FIGS. 2A, 2B, and 2F) and the second position P2 (FIGS. 2C to 2E).
　第１のガイド部１３は、図２Ａ、図２Ｂ、及び図２Ｆに示す第１の位置Ｐ１において、羽根車１２に向けて搬送される紙幣１００をガイドする。また、第１のガイド部１３は、図２Ｃ～図２Ｅに示す第２の位置Ｐ２において、羽根１２ｂの間に挿入された紙幣１００の後端１００ｂ側との干渉を回避する。 1st guide part 13 guides bill 100 conveyed toward impeller 12 in the 1st position P1 shown in Drawing 2A, Drawing 2B, and Drawing 2F. Further, the first guide portion 13 avoids interference with the rear end 100b side of the banknote 100 inserted between the blades 12b at the second position P2 shown in FIGS. 2C to 2E.
　なお、第１のガイド部１３は、第１の位置Ｐ１と第２の位置Ｐ１との間を、回動軸１３ａを中心に回動するのではなく、第２のガイド部１４に接近又は離隔する方向などにスライド移動するようにしてもよい。また、第１のガイド部１３は、第１の位置Ｐ１及び第２の位置Ｐ２とは異なる他の位置に更に移動してもよく、移動範囲は第１の位置Ｐ１と第２の位置Ｐ２との間に限られない。例えば、第１のガイド部１３は、第２の位置Ｐ２よりも第１の位置Ｐ１に接近又は離隔した他の位置に移動してもよい。 Note that the first guide portion 13 does not rotate between the first position P1 and the second position P1 around the rotation shaft 13a, but approaches or separates from the second guide portion 14. May be slid in the direction of movement. Further, the first guide portion 13 may further move to another position different from the first position P1 and the second position P2, and the movement range is the first position P1 and the second position P2. Not limited to between. For example, the first guide portion 13 may move to another position that is closer to or farther from the first position P1 than the second position P2.
　第１のガイド部１３には、搬送方向（搬送経路Ｄ１）の先端部分に、先端傾斜部１３ｂが形成されている。この先端傾斜部１３ｂは、先端に近づくほど第２のガイド部１４から遠ざかるように傾斜している。 In the first guide portion 13, a tip inclined portion 13b is formed at the tip portion in the transport direction (transport path D1). The tip inclined portion 13b is inclined so as to move away from the second guide portion 14 as it approaches the tip.
　通過検知センサ１６は、羽根車１２へと搬送される紙幣１００の通過を検知する。例えば、通過検知センサ１６は、第２のガイド部１４及び第３のガイド部１５を挟み込むように発行部分と受光部分とが配置され、検知用の光が紙幣１００により遮断されることで、紙幣１００の通過を検知する。 The passage detection sensor 16 detects passage of the banknote 100 conveyed to the impeller 12. For example, in the passage detection sensor 16, the issuing part and the light receiving part are arranged so as to sandwich the second guide part 14 and the third guide part 15, and the light for detection is blocked by the banknote 100. 100 passes are detected.
　なお、通過検知センサ１６は、図２Ａ～図２Ｆの位置より上流側に配置され、紙幣１００が第１のガイド部１３、第２のガイド部１４、及び第３のガイド部１５に搬送されてくる前に（例えば、図１Ａ及び図１Ｂに示す搬送路５０において）紙幣１００の通過を検知してもよい。 The passage detection sensor 16 is arranged on the upstream side from the position of FIGS. 2A to 2F, and the banknote 100 is conveyed to the first guide part 13, the second guide part 14, and the third guide part 15. You may detect passage of the banknote 100 (for example, in the conveyance path 50 shown to FIG. 1A and FIG. 1B) before coming.
　駆動部１７は、第１のガイド部１３を、回動軸１３ａを中心に回動させることで、第１の位置Ｐ１と第２の位置Ｐ２とに移動させる。例えば、駆動部１７は、駆動源及びその駆動力を伝達する伝達機構である。 The drive unit 17 moves the first guide unit 13 to the first position P1 and the second position P2 by rotating the first guide unit 13 about the rotation shaft 13a. For example, the drive unit 17 is a transmission mechanism that transmits a drive source and its drive force.
　制御部１８は、通過検知センサ１６による紙幣１００の検知結果に基づき、第１のガイド部１３を第１の位置Ｐ１と第２の位置Ｐ２とに移動させる制御を駆動部１７に対し行う。例えば、制御部１８は、紙葉類集積装置１０又は紙葉類取扱装置１の各部を制御する制御回路基板又はコンピュータである。 The control unit 18 controls the drive unit 17 to move the first guide unit 13 to the first position P1 and the second position P2 based on the detection result of the banknote 100 by the passage detection sensor 16. For example, the control unit 18 is a control circuit board or a computer that controls each unit of the paper sheet stacking apparatus 10 or the paper sheet handling apparatus 1.
　また、詳しくは後述するが、制御部１８は、紙幣１００の検知結果に基づき、図２Ｂ及び図２Ｃに示すように紙幣１００の搬送方向（搬送経路Ｄ１）における前端１００ａが羽根車１２の羽根１２ｂの間に侵入したこと、及び、図２Ｅ及び図２Ｆに示すように紙幣１００の搬送方向（搬送経路Ｄ１）における後端１００ｂが第１のガイド部１３と第２のガイド部１４との間から抜け出たことを判断する。そして、制御部１８は、その判断に応じて第１のガイド部１３を第１の位置Ｐ１と第２の位置Ｐ２とに移動させる制御を行う。 Moreover, although mentioned later in detail, as shown in FIG. 2B and FIG. 2C, the front end 100a in the conveyance direction (conveyance path | route D1) of the banknote 100 is based on the detection result of the banknote 100, and the control part 18 is the blade | wing 12b of the impeller 12. And the rear end 100b in the conveyance direction (conveyance path D1) of the bill 100 is between the first guide portion 13 and the second guide portion 14 as shown in FIGS. 2E and 2F. Judge that you have escaped. And the control part 18 performs control which moves the 1st guide part 13 to the 1st position P1 and the 2nd position P2 according to the judgment.
　繰出しローラ１９は、収容部１１において複数配置され、収容部１１に収容された紙幣１００を例えば図１Ｂに示す搬送路５０（例えば、第１～第４のカセット４１～４４及びリジェクトボックス４５へと続く搬送経路Ｄ３，Ｄ４）に繰出すように回転する。繰出しローラ１９は、繰出し手段の一例である。 A plurality of feeding rollers 19 are arranged in the storage unit 11, and the banknotes 100 stored in the storage unit 11 are transferred to, for example, the transport path 50 (for example, the first to fourth cassettes 41 to 44 and the reject box 45 shown in FIG. 1B). It rotates so that it may pay out to the following conveyance path | route D3, D4). The feeding roller 19 is an example of a feeding unit.
　次に、紙葉類集積装置１０における紙幣１００の集積について、上述の説明と重複する事項については適宜省略しながら、図２Ａ～図２Ｆを参照しながら説明する。 Next, the stacking of the banknotes 100 in the paper sheet stacking apparatus 10 will be described with reference to FIGS. 2A to 2F, omitting matters overlapping with the above description as appropriate.
　まず、図２Ａに示すように、搬送ローラ５１が第２のガイド部１４と第３のガイド部１５との間において紙幣１００を搬送する。そして、通過検知センサ１６が紙幣１００の前端１００ａを検知する。 First, as shown in FIG. 2A, the transport roller 51 transports the banknote 100 between the second guide portion 14 and the third guide portion 15. Then, the passage detection sensor 16 detects the front end 100a of the banknote 100.
　制御部１８は、紙幣１００の前端１００ａが通過検知センサ１６により検知されてから所定時間経過後に、図２Ｂに示すように紙幣１００の前端１００ａが羽根車１２の羽根１２ｂの間に侵入すると判断する。 The control unit 18 determines that the front end 100a of the banknote 100 enters between the blades 12b of the impeller 12 as shown in FIG. .
　紙幣１００の前端１００ａが羽根１２ｂの間に侵入したと制御部１８が判断すると、制御部１８は、第１のガイド部１３を図２Ｂに示す第１の位置Ｐ１から図２Ｃに示す第２の位置Ｐ２へ移動させる制御を駆動部１７に対し行う。 When the control unit 18 determines that the front end 100a of the banknote 100 has entered between the blades 12b, the control unit 18 moves the first guide unit 13 from the first position P1 illustrated in FIG. 2B to the second position illustrated in FIG. 2C. The drive unit 17 is controlled to move to the position P2.
　なお、通過検知センサ１６は、紙幣１００の前端１００ａが羽根１２ｂの間に侵入する位置において、紙幣１００の通過を検知してもよい。その場合、制御部１８は、通過検知センサ１６が紙幣１００の通過を検知した時点で、前端１００ａが羽根車１２の羽根１２ｂの間に侵入したと判断することができる。 Note that the passage detection sensor 16 may detect the passage of the bill 100 at a position where the front end 100a of the bill 100 enters between the blades 12b. In that case, the control unit 18 can determine that the front end 100 a has entered between the blades 12 b of the impeller 12 when the passage detection sensor 16 detects the passage of the banknote 100.
　また、制御部１８は、紙幣１００の前端１００ａだけでなく、より広い範囲に亘って羽根１２ｂの間に侵入したと判断した後、第１のガイド部１３を第１の位置Ｐ１から第２の位置Ｐ２へ移動させる制御を行ってもよい。また、制御部１８は、紙幣１００の前端１００ａが羽根１２ｂの間に侵入する直前に第１のガイド部１３を第１の位置Ｐ１から第２の位置Ｐ２に移動させてもよいが、前端１００ａが羽根１２ｂの間に侵入した後に第１のガイド部１３を移動させることがより望ましい。 Moreover, after determining that the control unit 18 has entered not only the front end 100a of the banknote 100 but also the blade 12b over a wider range, the first guide unit 13 is moved from the first position P1 to the second position. Control to move to the position P2 may be performed. Moreover, although the control part 18 may move the 1st guide part 13 from the 1st position P1 to the 2nd position P2 just before the front end 100a of the banknote 100 penetrate | invades between the blade | wings 12b, the front end 100a More preferably, the first guide portion 13 is moved after the blade enters between the blades 12b.
　その後、羽根車１２は、互いに隣接する羽根１２ｂ－１，１２ｂ－２の間に挿入された紙幣１００を、回転しながら（矢印Ｄ５）収容部１１へと搬送する。その後、図２Ｄに示すように、紙幣１００の後端１００ｂが通過検知センサ１６により検知される。 Thereafter, the impeller 12 conveys the bill 100 inserted between the blades 12b-1 and 12b-2 adjacent to each other to the storage unit 11 while rotating (arrow D5). Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 2D, the rear end 100 b of the banknote 100 is detected by the passage detection sensor 16.
　制御部１８は、紙幣１００の後端１００ｂが通過検知センサ１６により検知されてから所定時間経過後に、図２Ｅに示すように紙幣１００の後端１００ｂが第１のガイド部１３と第２のガイド部１４との間から抜け出たと判断する。なお、通過検知センサ１６は、紙幣１００の後端１００ｂが第１のガイド部１３と第２のガイド部１４との間から抜け出る位置において紙幣１００の通過を検知してもよい。その場合、制御部１８は、通過検知センサ１６が紙幣１００の通過を検知した時点で、後端１００ｂが第１のガイド部１３と第２のガイド部１４との間から抜け出たと判断することができる。 As shown in FIG. 2E, the control unit 18 is configured such that the rear end 100b of the banknote 100 has the first guide portion 13 and the second guide after a predetermined time has elapsed since the rear end 100b of the banknote 100 is detected by the passage detection sensor 16. It is determined that it has escaped from the part 14. The passage detection sensor 16 may detect the passage of the banknote 100 at a position where the rear end 100b of the banknote 100 comes out from between the first guide portion 13 and the second guide portion 14. In that case, the control unit 18 may determine that the rear end 100b has come out from between the first guide unit 13 and the second guide unit 14 when the passage detection sensor 16 detects the passage of the banknote 100. it can.
　紙幣１００の後端１００ｂが第１のガイド部１３と第２のガイド部１４との間から抜け出たと制御部１８が判断すると、制御部１８は、第１のガイド部１３を図２Ｅに示す第２の位置Ｐ２から図２Ｆに示す第１の位置Ｐ１へ移動させる制御を駆動部１７に対し行う。なお、制御部１８は、後端１００ｂが第１のガイド部１３と第２のガイド部１４との間から抜け出る直前に第１のガイド部１３を第２の位置Ｐ２から第１の位置Ｐ１に移動させてもよいが、後端１００ｂが第１のガイド部１３と第２のガイド部１４との間から抜け出た後に第１のガイド部１３を移動させることがより望ましい。 When the control unit 18 determines that the rear end 100b of the banknote 100 has slipped out between the first guide unit 13 and the second guide unit 14, the control unit 18 moves the first guide unit 13 to the first position shown in FIG. 2E. The drive unit 17 is controlled to move from the second position P2 to the first position P1 shown in FIG. 2F. Note that the control unit 18 moves the first guide unit 13 from the second position P2 to the first position P1 immediately before the rear end 100b comes out from between the first guide unit 13 and the second guide unit 14. Although it may be moved, it is more desirable to move the first guide portion 13 after the rear end 100b has come out from between the first guide portion 13 and the second guide portion 14.
　そして、第１のガイド部１３は、第１の位置Ｐ１において、次に搬送されてくる紙幣１００をガイドする。また、羽根車１２により収容部１１へと搬送された紙幣１００は、収容部１１において一時的に収容され、その後、繰出しローラ１９及び図１Ｂに示す搬送ローラ５１によって第１～第４のカセット４１～４４及びリジェクトボックス４５へと搬送される（搬送経路Ｄ３，Ｄ４）。 And the 1st guide part 13 guides the bill 100 conveyed next in the 1st position P1. The banknote 100 conveyed to the accommodating part 11 by the impeller 12 is temporarily accommodated in the accommodating part 11, and then the first to fourth cassettes 41 are fed by the feeding roller 19 and the conveying roller 51 shown in FIG. 1B. To 44 and the reject box 45 (conveyance paths D3 and D4).
　以上説明した実施の形態では、第１のガイド部１３は、第２のガイド部１４よりも羽根車１２の回転方向（矢印Ｄ５）の下流側に位置する。また、第１のガイド部１３は、羽根車１２に向けて搬送される紙幣（紙葉類の一例）１００をガイドする第１の位置Ｐ１と、羽根車１２の羽根１２ｂの間に挿入された紙幣１００との干渉を回避する第２の位置Ｐ２とに移動する。 In the embodiment described above, the first guide portion 13 is located downstream of the second guide portion 14 in the rotational direction of the impeller 12 (arrow D5). The first guide portion 13 is inserted between the first position P1 for guiding the banknote (an example of a paper sheet) 100 conveyed toward the impeller 12 and the blade 12b of the impeller 12. It moves to the 2nd position P2 which avoids interference with bill 100.
　そのため、第１のガイド部１３は、第１の位置Ｐ１において、前端１００ａが反っているなどの変形した紙幣１００であっても羽根車１２に搬送されるのを十分にガイドすることができる。また、第１のガイド部１３は、第２の位置Ｐ２において、羽根１２ｂの間に挿入された紙幣１００に接触するのを防ぐことができる。これらにより、紙幣１００が収容部１１に確実に収容されるとともに、紙幣１００が羽根車１２から脱落するのを防ぐことができる。そのため、収容部１１における紙幣１００の不整列や、紙幣１００のジャムが起こるのを回避することができる。よって、本実施の形態によれば、紙幣１００を確実に集積することができる。 Therefore, the first guide portion 13 can sufficiently guide the banknote 100 which is deformed such that the front end 100a is warped at the first position P1 to be conveyed to the impeller 12. Moreover, the 1st guide part 13 can prevent contacting the banknote 100 inserted between the blade | wings 12b in the 2nd position P2. Thus, the banknote 100 can be securely stored in the storage unit 11 and the banknote 100 can be prevented from dropping from the impeller 12. Therefore, it is possible to avoid the misalignment of the banknotes 100 and the jamming of the banknotes 100 in the storage unit 11. Therefore, according to this Embodiment, the banknote 100 can be reliably integrated | stacked.
　また、本実施の形態では、第１のガイド部１３は、紙幣１００の搬送方向（搬送経路Ｄ１）における上流側の端部に位置する回動軸１３ａを中心に回動することで、第１の位置Ｐ１と第２の位置Ｐ２とに移動する。これにより、簡素な構成で、第１のガイド部１３の先端（先端傾斜部１３ｂ）の位置を大きく変化させることができるため、紙幣１００をより確実に集積することができる。 Moreover, in this Embodiment, the 1st guide part 13 rotates about the rotating shaft 13a located in the upstream edge part in the conveyance direction (conveyance path | route D1) of the banknote 100, and is 1st. It moves to the position P1 and the second position P2. Thereby, since the position of the front-end | tip (front-end | tip inclination part 13b) of the 1st guide part 13 can be changed with a simple structure, the banknote 100 can be more reliably integrated | stacked.
