Abstract
Description
以下、本発明に係る紙葉類処理装置の実施の形態について、図面を参照して説明する。ここで、図1乃至図5は本発明の実施の形態を説明するための図である。また、本実施の形態の紙葉類処理装置100で処理される紙葉類としては、紙幣、商品券、バーコードチケット、小切手、手形等の様々なものを挙げることができるが、代表的なものは紙幣である。
図2に示すように、第二搬送部50の終端には、集積部80,90に集積されない紙葉類を集積するためのリジェクト部110が設けられている。本実施の形態では、このリジェクト部110の少なくとも一部は、紙葉類の搬送方向において最も下流側に位置する集積部90の上方に設けられている。図2に示す態様では、前面側から見たときに、下流側に位置する集積部90の真上にリジェクト部110の左側の一部が位置し、リジェクト部110の右側の残部が下流側に位置する集積部90の右上に位置しているが、リジェクト部110全体が集積部90の真上に位置するようにしてもよい。
また、リジェクト部110の端部(図2の右側端部)には、放出ローラ111と対向ローラ112の間から放出された紙葉類がリジェクト部110からはみ出して外部へ放出されるのが防止するためのストッパ115が設けられている。このストッパ115は時計回りに手動で回転させることができるようになっており、オペレータが手動でこのストッパ115を時計回りに回転させることにより、リジェクト部110に収容された紙葉類を自在に取り出すことができるようになっている。
また、図2に示すように、リジェクト部110の上方に取込部20の少なくとも一部が位置している。図2に示す態様では、前面側から見たときに、リジェクト部110の真上に取込部20の右側の一部が位置し、取込部20の左側の残部がリジェクト部110の左上に位置しているが、取込部20全体がリジェクト部110の真上に位置するようにしてもよい。なお、本実施の形態では、前面側から見たときに、最も下流側に位置する集積部90の真上の領域内に取込部20が位置する態様となっている。
各集積部80,90にはそれぞれセンサ89,99が設けられている。そして、これらのセンサ89,99は、各集積部80,90に紙葉類が収容されているか否かを検知するようになっている。また、リジェクト部110にもセンサ119が設けられており、このセンサ119は、リジェクト部110に紙葉類が収容されているか否かを検知するようになっている。
取込部20、第一搬送部30及び識別部60の少なくとも一部は上方側に位置する第一ユニット160内に設けられている(図4参照)。他方、第二搬送部50及び集積部80,90の少なくとも一部は、第一ユニット160の下方に設けられた第二ユニット170内に設けられている。なお、本実施の形態では、以下、図4に示すように、取込部20、第一搬送部30及び識別部60の全てが上方側に位置する第一ユニット160内に設けられ、集積部80,90の全てが第一ユニット160の下方に設けられた第二ユニット170内に設けられ、第二搬送部50の一部が第一ユニット160内に設けられ、第二搬送部50の残部が第二ユニット170内に設けられている態様を用いて説明するが、これに限られることはない。
[搬送態様]
本実施の形態の紙葉類処理装置100において、紙葉類を搬送する態様について説明する。
紙葉類が第一搬送部30により搬送される際に、各紙葉類は識別部60により正損、真偽、金種、方向、表裏、搬送状態等が検知される。ここで、識別部60において識別を行うことができなかった紙葉類(識別不能券や、斜行、重送、連鎖等の搬送異常券)や、識別が行われたが正常でない紙葉類(偽券やサスペクト券)や、予め設定された所定の条件を満たさない紙葉類は、リジェクト部110に送るべき対象とされる。一方、識別部60において、予め設定された所定の条件を満たすと判定された紙葉類は集積部80,90に集積すべき対象とされる。
次に、紙葉類が詰まった場合のように、筐体10を開ける際の態様について説明する。
次に、本実施の形態による紙葉類処理装置100によって達成される効果であって、まだ述べていない効果、又は、とりわけ重要な効果について説明する。
