When the first tape path and the second tape path overlap at least partially when viewed from the axial direction of the drum, when viewed from the axial direction of the drum, two tapes travel on one path. To do. With this configuration, the paper sheet storage device can be made smaller than the configuration in which each of the two tapes travels on two paths.
　前記紙葉類収納装置は、紙葉類の搬送路と、前記第１テープと前記第２テープを前記ドラムの前記外周面に向かって案内するよう構成された第１のローラーと、前記第１のローラーにより案内され、前記ドラムの前記外周面に沿って走行した前記第１テープ及び前記第２テープの内、前記ドラムの径方向の外側に位置する前記第２テープを、前記ドラムの前記外周面から離した後、前記ドラムの前記外周面に向かって案内するよう構成された第２のローラーと、を備え、前記紙葉類は、前記搬送路の前記挟持箇所において、前記第２のローラーによって案内された前記第２テープと、前記第１のローラーによって案内された前記第１テープとの間に挟まれる、としてもよい。 The paper sheet storage device includes a paper sheet conveyance path, a first roller configured to guide the first tape and the second tape toward the outer peripheral surface of the drum, and the first roller. Of the first tape and the second tape, which are guided by the rollers of the drum and travel along the outer peripheral surface of the drum, the second tape located on the outer side in the radial direction of the drum is connected to the outer periphery of the drum. A second roller configured to guide toward the outer peripheral surface of the drum after being separated from the surface, wherein the paper sheet is the second roller at the clamping portion of the transport path. It may be sandwiched between the second tape guided by the first tape and the first tape guided by the first roller.
　こうすることで、第１テープ及び第２テープは、挟持箇所において紙葉類を挟むことができる。 By doing so, the first tape and the second tape can sandwich the paper sheet at the clamping portion.
　前記第２のローラーは、前記挟持箇所に設けられている、としてもよい。こうすることで、第１テープと第２テープとは、紙葉類を安定的に挟むことができる。 The second roller may be provided at the clamping portion. By carrying out like this, a 1st tape and a 2nd tape can pinch | interpose paper sheets stably.
　前記第１のローラーと前記第２のローラーは、前記挟持箇所において向かい合って配設されることにより、ローラー対を構成している、としてもよい。 The first roller and the second roller may be arranged to face each other at the clamping portion to constitute a roller pair.
　こうすることで、第１テープと第２テープとは、第１のローラーと第２のローラーとの間で紙葉類を挟むことができる。 In this way, the first tape and the second tape can sandwich the paper sheet between the first roller and the second roller.
　前記紙葉類収納装置は、前記第１テープ経路と前記第２テープ経路が重なった箇所に配設されかつ、前記第１テープと前記第２テープを案内するよう構成された共通ローラーを備えている、としてもよい。 The paper sheet storage device includes a common roller disposed at a position where the first tape path and the second tape path overlap each other and configured to guide the first tape and the second tape. It is good as well.
　共通ローラーは、二本のテープを案内する。この紙葉類収納装置は、第１テープのテープ経路と第２テープのテープ経路とを個別に設ける構成と比較して、テープ経路を構成する部材が少なくなる。紙葉類収納装置のコストダウンに有利になる。 The common roller guides two tapes. In this paper sheet storage device, the number of members constituting the tape path is reduced as compared with the configuration in which the tape path of the first tape and the tape path of the second tape are individually provided. This is advantageous in reducing the cost of the paper sheet storage device.
　前記共通ローラーは、前記搬送路に配設され、前記第１テープと前記第２テープは、前記共通ローラーと前記挟持箇所との間で、前記紙葉類と共に、前記搬送路に沿って走行する、としてもよい。 The common roller is disposed in the conveyance path, and the first tape and the second tape travel along the conveyance path together with the paper sheets between the common roller and the clamping portion. It is good also as.
　こうすることで、紙葉類が第１テープ及び第２テープに挟まれる前に、紙葉類と第１テープとは共に、搬送路に沿って走行する。第１テープと第２テープとは、挟持箇所において、紙葉類を安定して挟むことができる。 By doing so, both the paper sheets and the first tape travel along the conveyance path before the paper sheets are sandwiched between the first tape and the second tape. The first tape and the second tape can stably pinch the paper sheet at the pinching location.
　前記ドラムの前記外周面と前記挟持箇所との間に配設されかつ、前記ドラムの前記外周面から離した前記第２テープの走行位置を規制するよう構成されたテープ規制部を備えている、としてもよい。 A tape restricting portion disposed between the outer peripheral surface of the drum and the clamping portion and configured to restrict a travel position of the second tape separated from the outer peripheral surface of the drum; It is good.
　テープ規制部は、前記ドラムの前記外周面の近くにおいて、第２テープの走行位置を規制する。ドラムに巻いた第２テープの位置がずれることを抑制することができる。 The tape restricting portion restricts the running position of the second tape near the outer peripheral surface of the drum. The position of the second tape wound around the drum can be suppressed from shifting.
　特に、紙葉類に、偽造防止用のスレッド等が付加されていたり、紙葉類の一部に帯状に伸びる凹又は凸が形成されていたりすると、紙葉類がドラムの外周面に沿って曲がり難くなる場合がある。この場合、ドラムに巻いた紙葉類の位置がずれ、紙葉類の位置ずれに伴い、テープの位置が、幅方向にずれる恐れがある。テープ規制部が、ドラムの外周面の近くにおいて、第２テープの走行位置を規制することによって、ドラムに巻いたテープの位置がずれることを、より確実に抑制することができる。 In particular, when a forgery-preventing thread or the like is added to the paper sheet, or a concave or convex shape extending in a strip shape is formed on a part of the paper sheet, the paper sheet moves along the outer peripheral surface of the drum. It may be difficult to turn. In this case, the position of the paper sheet wound around the drum may be shifted, and the position of the tape may be shifted in the width direction due to the positional shift of the paper sheet. By restricting the running position of the second tape in the vicinity of the outer peripheral surface of the drum, the tape restricting portion can more reliably suppress the displacement of the tape wound around the drum.
　前記テープ規制部は、前記ドラムに巻いた前記紙葉類の量に応じて、前記ドラムの中心に対する相対位置を変更する、としてもよい。 The tape restricting unit may change a relative position with respect to the center of the drum according to the amount of the paper sheets wound around the drum.
　ドラムに巻いた紙葉類の量が増えると、ドラムの見かけの径が大きくなる。「ドラムの見かけの径」とは、ドラムの外周面に巻いた紙葉類及びテープによって構成されるドラムの外周面の径の意味である。ドラムの見かけの径の大きさに応じて、テープ規制部の位置を変更することによって、テープ規制部は、常に、ドラムの外周部（尚、ここでいう外周部は、ドラムに巻いた紙葉類及びテープの最外周部を意味する）の近くにおいて、第２テープの走行位置を規制する。ドラムに巻かれる第２テープの位置が適切な位置になり、ドラムに巻いたテープの位置がずれることを、常に抑制することができる。 When the amount of paper wound on the drum increases, the apparent diameter of the drum increases. The “apparent diameter of the drum” means the diameter of the outer peripheral surface of the drum composed of paper sheets and tape wound around the outer peripheral surface of the drum. By changing the position of the tape restricting portion in accordance with the apparent diameter of the drum, the tape restricting portion is always the outer peripheral portion of the drum (here, the outer peripheral portion is a sheet of paper wound around the drum). Near the outermost peripheral portion of the tape and the tape), the travel position of the second tape is regulated. It can always be suppressed that the position of the second tape wound around the drum becomes an appropriate position and the position of the tape wound around the drum shifts.
　前記第１リールと前記第２リールは、テープの幅方向に対して同じ位置に配設されている、としてもよい。 The first reel and the second reel may be arranged at the same position in the tape width direction.
　こうすることで、第１リールから引き出された第１テープと第２リールから引き出された第２テープは、テープの幅方向に対して同じ位置を走行する。紙葉類収納装置の小型化に、さらに有利になる。 By doing so, the first tape drawn from the first reel and the second tape drawn from the second reel run at the same position with respect to the width direction of the tape. This is further advantageous for downsizing the paper sheet storage device.
　前記第１テープと前記第２テープは、その幅方向の少なくとも一部が重なって前記ドラムに巻き取られる、としてもよい。 The first tape and the second tape may be wound around the drum with at least part of the width direction overlapping.
　こうすることで、紙葉類収納装置は、紙葉類を安定的にドラムに巻くことができる。 In this way, the paper sheet storage device can stably wind the paper sheet around the drum.
　前記紙葉類収納装置は、前記ドラムに巻いた前記第１テープ及び前記第２テープの少なくとも一方を押さえるよう構成された押さえローラーと、前記押さえローラーを支持すると共に、所定条件下において前記押さえローラーを前記ドラムの前記外周面から離すよう構成されたローラー支持部と、を備えている、としてもよい。 The paper sheet storage device supports a pressing roller configured to press at least one of the first tape and the second tape wound around the drum, and the pressing roller under predetermined conditions. And a roller support portion configured to be separated from the outer peripheral surface of the drum.
　押さえローラーは、第１テープ及び／又は第２テープを押さえることによって、ドラムに巻いた紙葉類の位置がずれることを抑制する。特に、紙葉類がドラムの外周面に沿って曲がり難くい場合に、押さえローラーは、ドラムに巻いた紙葉類の位置がずれることを、効果的に抑制する。 The pressing roller suppresses the shift of the position of the paper sheet wound around the drum by pressing the first tape and / or the second tape. In particular, when the paper sheet is difficult to bend along the outer peripheral surface of the drum, the pressing roller effectively suppresses the position of the paper sheet wound around the drum from shifting.
　ローラー支持部は、所定条件下において押さえローラーをドラムの外周面から離す。所定条件は、例えば、ドラムに巻いた紙葉類が少ないとき（例えば数十枚以下のとき）、又は、ドラムに紙葉類を巻いていないとき、としてもよい。 The roller support part separates the pressing roller from the outer peripheral surface of the drum under predetermined conditions. The predetermined condition may be, for example, when the number of paper sheets wound on the drum is small (for example, when several tens or less), or when the paper sheets are not wound on the drum.
　ドラムに巻いた紙葉類が比較的多い時には、押さえローラーがドラムに巻いた第１テープ及び／又は第２テープを押さえることによって、前述の通り、ドラムに巻いた紙葉類の位置がずれることが抑制される。しかしながら、ドラムに巻いた紙葉類が少ないときや、ドラムに紙葉類を巻いていないときに、押さえローラーがドラムに巻いた第１テープ及び／又は第２テープを押さえると、押さえローラーやローラー支持部の、部品ばらつきや、組み立てばらつきに起因して、第１テープ及び／又は第２テープの位置が、ずれる恐れがある。 When there are a relatively large number of paper sheets wound around the drum, the press roller presses the first tape and / or the second tape wound around the drum, thereby shifting the position of the paper sheets wound around the drum as described above. Is suppressed. However, when there are few paper sheets wound around the drum or when no paper sheets are wound around the drum, if the pressing roller presses the first tape and / or the second tape wound around the drum, the pressing roller or roller There is a possibility that the positions of the first tape and / or the second tape may be shifted due to variations in parts and assembly in the support portion.
　そこで、ローラー支持部が、所定条件下において押さえローラーをドラムの外周面から離すことによって、第１テープ及び／又は第２テープの位置がずれることが抑制される。尚、ドラムに巻いた紙葉類が比較的多い時には、ローラーやローラー支持部の、部品ばらつきや、組み立てばらつきの影響は、紙葉類同士の摩擦等によって相殺される。このため、ドラムに巻いた紙葉類が比較的多い時に押さえローラーが第１テープ及び／又は第２テープを押さえても、第１テープ及び／又は第２テープの位置は、ずれない。 Therefore, when the roller support part separates the pressing roller from the outer peripheral surface of the drum under a predetermined condition, the first tape and / or the second tape are prevented from being displaced. Note that when there are a relatively large number of paper sheets wound around the drum, the effects of variations in parts and assembly of the rollers and roller support portions are offset by friction between the paper sheets. For this reason, even if the pressing roller presses the first tape and / or the second tape when the number of paper sheets wound around the drum is relatively large, the positions of the first tape and / or the second tape do not shift.
　ここに開示する紙葉類収納方法は、第１テープ及び第２テープを、第１のローラーが、ドラムの外周面に向かって案内し、前記第１のローラーが案内し、前記ドラムの前記外周面に沿って走行した前記第１テープ及び前記第２テープの内、前記ドラムの径方向の外側に位置する前記第２テープを、第２のローラーが、前記ドラムの前記外周面から離した後、前記ドラムの前記外周面に向かって案内し、前記ドラムが、前記第２のローラーによって案内された前記第２テープと、前記第１のローラーによって案内された前記第１テープとの間に挟まれた紙葉類を、前記第１テープ及び前記第２テープと共に外周面に巻き取る、ことを特徴とする。 In the sheet storage method disclosed herein, the first tape and the second tape are guided by the first roller toward the outer peripheral surface of the drum, and the first roller guides the outer periphery of the drum. After the second roller separates the second tape located outside in the radial direction of the drum among the first tape and the second tape that have traveled along the surface, from the outer peripheral surface of the drum. The drum is guided toward the outer peripheral surface of the drum, and the drum is sandwiched between the second tape guided by the second roller and the first tape guided by the first roller. The sheet is wound around an outer peripheral surface together with the first tape and the second tape.
　こうすることで、紙葉類は、安定して、ドラムの外周面に巻かれる。 By doing so, the paper sheets are stably wound around the outer peripheral surface of the drum.
　ここに開示する紙葉類処理装置は、紙葉類の収納部を備える。前記収納部は、第１テープが巻かれた第１リールと、第２テープが巻かれた第２リールと、前記第１テープと前記第２テープとの間に挟んだ紙葉類を、前記第１テープ及び前記第２テープと共に、外周面に巻き取るよう回転すると共に、逆方向に回転することによって、前記紙葉類を前記外周面から繰り出すよう構成されたドラムと、前記第１テープと前記第２テープとの間に前記紙葉類を挟む挟持箇所から、前記第１リールまでの間の第１テープ経路と、前記挟持箇所から、前記第２リールまでの間の第２テープ経路と、を備え、前記第１テープ経路と前記第２テープ経路は、前記ドラムの軸方向から見て、少なくとも一部が重なっている。 The paper sheet processing apparatus disclosed herein includes a paper sheet storage unit. The storage unit includes a first reel on which a first tape is wound, a second reel on which a second tape is wound, and paper sheets sandwiched between the first tape and the second tape, A drum configured to rotate around the outer peripheral surface together with the first tape and the second tape and to feed the paper sheets out of the outer peripheral surface by rotating in the reverse direction; and the first tape; A first tape path from the clamping part sandwiching the paper sheet to the second tape to the first reel, and a second tape path from the clamping part to the second reel The first tape path and the second tape path at least partially overlap each other when viewed from the axial direction of the drum.
　この構成によると、紙葉類処理装置の収納部は、前述したように、ドラムの軸方向から見たときに、二本のテープが一つの経路上で走行するから、小型化することができる。収納部が小型化するため、紙葉類処理装置も小型化することができる。 According to this configuration, as described above, the storage unit of the paper sheet processing apparatus can be reduced in size because the two tapes travel on one path when viewed from the axial direction of the drum. . Since the storage unit is downsized, the paper sheet processing apparatus can also be downsized.
　ここに開示する紙葉類収納装置は、フレームと、第１テープが巻かれた第１リールと、第２テープが巻かれた第２リールと、前記第１テープと前記第２テープとの間に挟んだ紙葉類を、前記第１テープ及び前記第２テープと共に、外周面に巻き取るよう回転すると共に、逆方向に回転することによって、前記紙葉類を前記外周面から繰り出すよう構成されたドラムと、前記ドラムに向かって前記紙葉類を搬送すると共に、前記ドラムに巻いた前記紙葉類の量に応じて可動する搬送ガイドと、を備える。 The paper sheet storage device disclosed herein includes a frame, a first reel on which a first tape is wound, a second reel on which a second tape is wound, and between the first tape and the second tape. The paper sheets sandwiched between the first tape and the second tape are rotated so as to be wound around the outer peripheral surface, and the paper sheets are fed out from the outer peripheral surface by rotating in the reverse direction. And a transport guide that transports the paper sheets toward the drum and that moves according to the amount of the paper sheets wound around the drum.
　そして、前記搬送ガイドは、前記フレーム内を、第１領域と第２領域とに隔て、前記ドラムは、前記第１領域に配設され、前記第１リール及び前記第２リールは共に、前記第２領域に配設されている。 The transport guide is separated in the frame into a first area and a second area, the drum is disposed in the first area, and both the first reel and the second reel are in the first area. It is arranged in two areas.
　この構成によると、第１リール及び第２リールの両方を、フレーム内において、搬送ガイドよりも第２領域に配置するため、フレーム内の第１領域は、リールの配設スペースを省略することができる。その結果、紙葉類収納装置を小型化することができる。 According to this configuration, since both the first reel and the second reel are arranged in the second area in the frame rather than the conveyance guide, the first area in the frame can omit the reel arrangement space. it can. As a result, the paper sheet storage device can be reduced in size.
　前記搬送ガイドは、前記第１領域と前記第２領域を連通する連通部を有し、前記第１テープ及び前記第２テープは、前記連通部を通り抜け、前記紙葉類収納装置は、前記連通部を通り抜けた前記第１テープと前記第２テープを前記ドラムの前記外周面に向かって案内するよう構成された第１のローラーと、前記第１のローラーにより案内され、前記ドラムの前記外周面に沿って走行した前記第１テープ及び前記第２テープの内、前記ドラムの径方向の外側に位置する前記第２テープを、前記ドラムの前記外周面から離した後、前記ドラムの前記外周面に向かって案内するよう構成された第２のローラーと、を備え、前記紙葉類は、前記第１のローラーによって案内された前記第１テープと、前記第２のローラーによって案内された前記第２テープとの間に挟まれる、としてもよい。 The conveyance guide includes a communication portion that communicates the first region and the second region, the first tape and the second tape pass through the communication portion, and the paper sheet storage device includes the communication portion. A first roller configured to guide the first tape and the second tape passing through the portion toward the outer peripheral surface of the drum; and the outer peripheral surface of the drum guided by the first roller. After the first tape and the second tape that have traveled along the second tape are separated from the outer peripheral surface of the drum, the outer peripheral surface of the drum is separated from the outer peripheral surface of the drum. A second roller configured to guide toward the first sheet, wherein the paper sheets are guided by the first roller and the first tape guided by the second roller. 2 Is sandwiched between the-loop, it may be.
　第１テープと第２テープとの両方を、同じ経路を通じて、フレーム内の第２領域から第１領域へと導くことによって、二本のテープは、紙葉類を挟みかつ、ドラムに巻くことができる。 By guiding both the first tape and the second tape from the second region in the frame to the first region through the same path, the two tapes can be sandwiched between paper sheets and wound on a drum. it can.
　前記搬送ガイドは、前記第１領域と前記第２領域を連通する連通部を有し、前記第１テープは、前記連通部を通り抜け、前記紙葉類収納装置は、前記連通部を通り抜けた前記第１テープを前記ドラムの前記外周面に向かって案内するよう構成された第１のローラーと、前記第２テープを、前記搬送ガイドを迂回して、前記第１領域から前記第２領域へと導くよう構成された迂回ローラーと、前記迂回ローラーにより案内された前記第２テープを、前記ドラムの前記外周面に向かって案内するよう構成された第２のローラーと、を備え、前記紙葉類は、前記第１のローラーによって案内された前記第１テープと、前記第２のローラーによって案内された前記第２テープとの間に挟まれる、としてもよい。 The conveyance guide has a communication portion that communicates the first region and the second region, the first tape passes through the communication portion, and the paper sheet storage device passes through the communication portion. A first roller configured to guide the first tape toward the outer peripheral surface of the drum, and the second tape from the first region to the second region, bypassing the conveyance guide. A detour roller configured to guide, and a second roller configured to guide the second tape guided by the detour roller toward the outer peripheral surface of the drum, and the paper sheet May be sandwiched between the first tape guided by the first roller and the second tape guided by the second roller.
　第１テープと第２テープとの両方を、異なる経路を通じて、フレーム内の第２領域から第１領域へと導くことによって、二本のテープは、紙葉類を挟みかつ、ドラムに巻くことができる。 By guiding both the first tape and the second tape from the second area in the frame to the first area through different paths, the two tapes can sandwich the paper sheets and be wound on the drum. it can.
　前記第１テープと前記第２テープは、その幅方向の少なくとも一部が重なって前記ドラムに巻き取られる、としてもよい。紙葉類収納装置は、紙葉類を、安定してドラムの外周面に巻くことができる。 The first tape and the second tape may be wound around the drum with at least part of the width direction overlapping. The paper sheet storage device can stably wind the paper sheet around the outer peripheral surface of the drum.
　前記第１リールと前記第２リールは、テープの幅方向に対して同じ位置に配設されている、としてもよい。こうすることで、第１リールから引き出された第１テープと第２リールから引き出された第２テープとは、テープの幅方向に対して同じ位置を走行する。この構成は、紙葉類収納装置の小型化に有利になる。 The first reel and the second reel may be arranged at the same position in the tape width direction. By doing so, the first tape drawn from the first reel and the second tape drawn from the second reel travel at the same position with respect to the width direction of the tape. This configuration is advantageous for reducing the size of the paper sheet storage device.
　また、前記第１リールと前記第２リールは、テープの幅方向に対して、位置がずれている、としてもよい。 Further, the first reel and the second reel may be misaligned with respect to the width direction of the tape.
　前記第１リール及び前記第２リールはそれぞれ、前記第１テープ及び前記第２テープの巻き量に応じて、見かけの径が変化し、前記第１リール及び前記第２リールの内の少なくとも一のリールの見かけの径が変化する領域と、前記搬送ガイドが変位する領域とは、一部が重なる、としてもよい。 The first reel and the second reel have different apparent diameters according to the amount of winding of the first tape and the second tape, respectively, and at least one of the first reel and the second reel. The area where the apparent diameter of the reel changes and the area where the transport guide is displaced may partially overlap.
　ドラムに巻かれる紙葉類の量が多くなると、第１リール及び第２リールから引き出されるテープの量が増える。そのため、ドラムの見かけの径が大きくなる一方、第１リール及び第２リールの見かけの径は小さくなる。逆に、ドラムに巻かれる紙葉類の量が少なくなると、ドラムの見かけの径が小さくなる一方、第１リール及び第２リールの見かけの径は大きくなる。 When the amount of paper sheets wound on the drum increases, the amount of tape drawn from the first reel and the second reel increases. For this reason, the apparent diameter of the drum is increased, while the apparent diameters of the first reel and the second reel are decreased. Conversely, when the amount of paper sheets wound around the drum is reduced, the apparent diameter of the drum is reduced, while the apparent diameters of the first reel and the second reel are increased.
　搬送ガイドはドラムに巻いた紙葉類の量に応じて、ドラムの中心に対する相対位置を変更する。つまり、ドラムの見かけの径が大きくなると、搬送ガイドはドラムの中心から離れ、ドラムの見かけの径が小さくなると、搬送ガイドはドラムの中心に近づく。 The conveyance guide changes the relative position with respect to the center of the drum according to the amount of paper sheets wound around the drum. That is, when the apparent diameter of the drum increases, the transport guide moves away from the center of the drum, and when the apparent diameter of the drum decreases, the transport guide approaches the center of the drum.
　第１リール及び第２リールの内の少なくとも一のリールの見かけの径が変化する領域と、搬送ガイドが変位する領域との一部が重なる構成とすることによって、フレーム内のスペース効率が向上する。紙葉類収納装置の小型化に有利になる。 Space efficiency in the frame is improved by adopting a configuration in which a region where the apparent diameter of at least one of the first reel and the second reel is changed overlaps with a region where the transport guide is displaced. . This is advantageous for downsizing the paper sheet storage device.
　ここに開示する別の紙葉類処理装置は、紙葉類の収納部を備え、前記収納部は、フレームと、第１テープが巻かれた第１リールと、第２テープが巻かれた第２リールと、前記第１テープと前記第２テープとの間に挟んだ紙葉類を、前記第１テープ及び前記第２テープと共に、外周面に巻き取るよう回転すると共に、逆方向に回転することによって、前記紙葉類を前記外周面から繰り出すよう構成されたドラムと、前記ドラムに向かって前記紙葉類を搬送すると共に、前記ドラムに巻いた前記紙葉類の量に応じて可動する搬送ガイドと、を備え、前記搬送ガイドは、前記フレーム内を、第１領域と第２領域とに隔て、前記ドラムは、前記第１領域に配設され、前記第１リール及び前記第２リールは共に、前記第２領域に配設されている。 Another paper sheet processing apparatus disclosed herein includes a paper sheet storage unit, the storage unit including a frame, a first reel wound with a first tape, and a second tape wound with a second tape. Two reels, and the paper sheets sandwiched between the first tape and the second tape rotate together with the first tape and the second tape so as to be wound around the outer peripheral surface, and rotate in the opposite direction. Accordingly, the drum configured to feed out the paper sheets from the outer peripheral surface, and the paper sheets are transported toward the drum, and are moved according to the amount of the paper sheets wound around the drum. A conveyance guide, wherein the conveyance guide is separated into a first area and a second area within the frame, and the drum is disposed in the first area, and the first reel and the second reel Are both disposed in the second region.
　紙葉類処理装置の収納部は、前述したように、第１リール及び第２リールの両方が、フレーム内の第２領域に配置されているから、小型化することができる。収納部が小型化するため、紙葉類処理装置も小型化することができる。 As described above, both the first reel and the second reel are disposed in the second region in the frame, so that the storage unit of the paper sheet processing apparatus can be downsized. Since the storage unit is downsized, the paper sheet processing apparatus can also be downsized.
　以上説明したように、前記の紙葉類収納装置及び紙葉類収納方法によると、紙葉類収納装置の小型化に有利である。また、前記の紙葉類処理装置によると、収納部が小型化するから、紙葉類処理装置の小型化に有利である。 As described above, the paper sheet storage device and the paper sheet storage method described above are advantageous for downsizing the paper sheet storage device. Moreover, according to the paper sheet processing apparatus, the storage unit is downsized, which is advantageous for downsizing the paper sheet processing apparatus.

The first common roller 324 is arranged at a predetermined interval with respect to the first roller 341 in a direction away from the drum 37, in other words, in a direction from the drum 37 toward the entrance / exit 310. The first tape 351 and the second tape 352 travel along the conveyance path of the banknote 100 while being overlapped between the first common roller 324 and the first roller 341.
　従って、ローラー対３４によって構成される挟持箇所から第１リール３６１及び第２リール３６２までのテープ経路の一部において、第１テープ３５１と第２テープ３５２とは、互いに重なった状態で走行する。より具体的に、ローラー対３４から第２共通ローラー３２５までの間において、第１テープ３５１と第２テープ３５２とは、幅方向に互いに重なった状態で走行する。この構成は、挟持箇所から第１リール３６１までの間の第１テープ経路と、挟持箇所から、第２リール３６２までの間の第２テープ経路とが、ドラム３７の軸方向から見て、少なくとも一部が重なっている、と言い換えることができる（図３又は図４参照）。 Therefore, the first tape 351 and the second tape 352 run in a state where they overlap each other in a part of the tape path from the clamping portion constituted by the roller pair 34 to the first reel 361 and the second reel 362. More specifically, between the roller pair 34 and the second common roller 325, the first tape 351 and the second tape 352 travel in a state where they overlap each other in the width direction. In this configuration, the first tape path from the clamping location to the first reel 361 and the second tape path from the clamping location to the second reel 362 are at least as viewed from the axial direction of the drum 37. It can be paraphrased that a part overlaps (refer to Drawing 3 or Drawing 4).
　第１のローラー３４１は、重なった第１テープ３５１及び第２テープ３５２を、ドラム３７の外周面に向かって案内する。このときに、第１テープ３５１は、ドラム３７の径方向の内側に位置し、第２テープ３５２は、ドラム３７の径方向の外側に位置する。 The first roller 341 guides the overlapped first tape 351 and second tape 352 toward the outer peripheral surface of the drum 37. At this time, the first tape 351 is located inside the drum 37 in the radial direction, and the second tape 352 is located outside the drum 37 in the radial direction.
　ドラム３７は、第１領域３１１に配設されている。より詳細に、ドラム３７は、第１領域３１１において、出入口３１０から離れた位置に配設されている。 The drum 37 is disposed in the first region 311. More specifically, the drum 37 is disposed at a position away from the entrance / exit 310 in the first region 311.
　ドラム３７は、Ｚ方向に伸びる軸を中心に回転する。ドラム３７は、紙幣１００及びテープの巻き取り方向、及び、紙幣１００及びテープの繰り出し方向に回転する。図３の例において、紙幣１００及びテープの巻き取り方向は、時計回り方向であり、紙幣１００及びテープの繰り出し方向は、反時計回り方向である。 The drum 37 rotates around an axis extending in the Z direction. The drum 37 rotates in the winding direction of the banknote 100 and the tape and in the feeding direction of the banknote 100 and the tape. In the example of FIG. 3, the winding direction of the banknote 100 and the tape is a clockwise direction, and the feeding direction of the banknote 100 and the tape is a counterclockwise direction.
　以下、図３～５を参照しながら、ドラム３７の付近における第１テープ３５１及び第２テープ３５２の、配置関係を説明する。図５は、ドラム３７、第１のローラー３４１、第２のローラー３４２、第１共通ローラー３２４、及び、押さえローラー３８１、並びに、第１テープ３５１及び第２テープ３５２を示している。図５は、理解を容易にするために、ドラム３７及び各ローラー３４１、３４２、３２４、３８１の間隔を広く描いている。第１テープ３５１は破線で、第２テープ３５２は実線でそれぞれ示す。また図５は、実際とは異なり、第１テープ３５１及び第２テープ３５２の間に間隔を設けて描いている。 Hereinafter, the positional relationship between the first tape 351 and the second tape 352 in the vicinity of the drum 37 will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 5 shows the drum 37, the first roller 341, the second roller 342, the first common roller 324, the pressing roller 381, and the first tape 351 and the second tape 352. FIG. 5 depicts a wide space between the drum 37 and the rollers 341, 342, 324, and 381 for easy understanding. The first tape 351 is indicated by a broken line, and the second tape 352 is indicated by a solid line. Further, FIG. 5 differs from the actual case in that a space is provided between the first tape 351 and the second tape 352.
　第１のローラー３４１に案内された第１テープ３５１及び第２テープ３５２は、ドラム３７の外周面に巻かれる。ドラム３７の外周面に、この構成例では、おおよそ２／３周分だけ巻かれた第１テープ３５１及び第２テープ３５２の内、ドラム３７の径方向の外側に位置する第２テープ３５２は、ドラム３７の外周面から離されて、第２のローラー３４２に巻き掛けられる。第１テープ３５１はドラム３７の外周面に巻かれたままになる。 The first tape 351 and the second tape 352 guided by the first roller 341 are wound around the outer peripheral surface of the drum 37. Of the first tape 351 and the second tape 352 wound around the outer peripheral surface of the drum 37 by approximately 2/3 of the circumference, the second tape 352 located on the outer side in the radial direction of the drum 37 is: It is separated from the outer peripheral surface of the drum 37 and is wound around the second roller 342. The first tape 351 remains wound on the outer peripheral surface of the drum 37.
　第２のローラー３４２は、第２テープ３５２を、第１テープ３５１に重なるように、ドラム３７の外周面に向かって、再び案内する。第１のローラー３４１と第２のローラー３４２とからなるローラー対３４は、一本の第１テープ３５１と二本の第２テープ３５２との合計三本のテープを挟持する。 The second roller 342 guides the second tape 352 again toward the outer peripheral surface of the drum 37 so as to overlap the first tape 351. The roller pair 34 composed of the first roller 341 and the second roller 342 sandwiches a total of three tapes of one first tape 351 and two second tapes 352.
　図５に示すように、搬送ガイド３２の搬送路に沿って搬送される紙幣１００は、第１共通ローラー３２４と第１のローラー３４１との間で、第１テープ３５１と重なって搬送される。このとき、第１テープ３５１と第２テープ３５２とは重なっているものの、紙幣１００は、第１テープ３５１と第２テープ３５２との間には挟まっていない。 As shown in FIG. 5, the banknote 100 conveyed along the conveyance path of the conveyance guide 32 is conveyed between the first common roller 324 and the first roller 341 so as to overlap the first tape 351. At this time, although the first tape 351 and the second tape 352 overlap each other, the banknote 100 is not sandwiched between the first tape 351 and the second tape 352.
　紙幣１００は、第１のローラー３４１と第２のローラー３４２とによって構成されるローラー対３４の箇所において、第１のローラー３４１によって案内された第１テープ３５１と、第２のローラー３４２によって案内された第２テープ３５２との間に挟まれる。第１テープ３５１と第２テープ３５２との間に挟まれた紙幣は、ローラー対３４を通過した後、第１テープ３５１及び第２テープ３５２と共に、ドラム３７の外周面に巻かれる。図示は省略するが、第１テープ３５１及び第２テープ３５２は、ドラム３７の外周面においても、幅方向に重なっている。 The banknote 100 is guided by the first tape 351 guided by the first roller 341 and the second roller 342 at the position of the roller pair 34 constituted by the first roller 341 and the second roller 342. Between the second tape 352 and the second tape 352. The banknotes sandwiched between the first tape 351 and the second tape 352 pass through the roller pair 34 and are then wound around the outer peripheral surface of the drum 37 together with the first tape 351 and the second tape 352. Although not shown, the first tape 351 and the second tape 352 also overlap in the width direction on the outer peripheral surface of the drum 37.
　紙幣収納装置３は、ローラー対３４の箇所において、第１テープ３５１を、第２テープ３５２と第２テープ３５２の間に挟んでいるため、第１テープ３５１及び第２テープ３５２を重ねた状態で、ドラム３７に巻くことができる。紙幣は、第１テープ３５１と第２テープ３５２との間に挟まれた状態で、安定的に、ドラム３７に巻かれる。 Since the banknote storage device 3 has the first tape 351 sandwiched between the second tape 352 and the second tape 352 at the position of the roller pair 34, the first tape 351 and the second tape 352 are stacked. Can be wound around the drum 37. The banknote is stably wound on the drum 37 while being sandwiched between the first tape 351 and the second tape 352.
　従って、収納機構３００の紙幣収納方法は、以下のように構成されている。つまり、（１）第１テープ３５１及び第２テープ３５２を、第１のローラー３４１が、ドラム３７の外周面に向かって案内し、（２）第１のローラー３４１が案内し、ドラム３７の外周面に沿って走行した第１テープ３５１及び第２テープ３５２の内、ドラム３７の径方向の外側に位置する第２テープ３５２を、第２のローラー３４２が、ドラム３７の外周面から離した後、ドラム３７の外周面に向かって案内し、（３）ドラム３７が、第２のローラー３４２によって案内された第２テープ３５２と、第１のローラー３４１によって案内された第１テープ３５１との間に挟まれた紙幣１００を、第１テープ３５１及び第２テープ３５２と共に外周面に巻き取る。 Therefore, the bill storage method of the storage mechanism 300 is configured as follows. That is, (1) the first tape 351 and the second tape 352 are guided by the first roller 341 toward the outer peripheral surface of the drum 37, and (2) the first roller 341 guides the outer periphery of the drum 37. After the second roller 342 separates the second tape 352 located on the outer side in the radial direction of the drum 37 among the first tape 351 and the second tape 352 traveling along the surface, from the outer peripheral surface of the drum 37. (3) Between the second tape 352 guided by the second roller 342 and the first tape 351 guided by the first roller 341. The banknote 100 sandwiched between the first tape 351 and the second tape 352 is wound around the outer peripheral surface.
　この構成の収納機構３００は、紙幣１００を、幅方向に重なった第１テープ３５１及び第２テープ３５２との間に挟んでドラム３７に巻き取るため、紙幣１００を、安定的にドラムに巻くことができる。 The storage mechanism 300 having this configuration winds the banknote 100 around the drum stably in order to wind the banknote 100 between the first tape 351 and the second tape 352 that overlap each other in the width direction. Can do.
　また、挟持箇所（つまり、ローラー対３４）から第１リール３６１及び第２リール３６２までのテープ経路の少なくとも一部において、第１テープ経路と第２テープ経路は、ドラム３７の軸方向から見て重なっている。つまり、ドラム３７の軸方向から見たときに、二本のテープが一つの経路上で走行するから、この紙幣収納装置３は、二本のテープのそれぞれが二つの経路上で走行する構成よりも小型化する。 Further, in at least a part of the tape path from the clamping portion (that is, the roller pair 34) to the first reel 361 and the second reel 362, the first tape path and the second tape path are viewed from the axial direction of the drum 37. overlapping. That is, when viewed from the axial direction of the drum 37, since the two tapes travel on one path, the banknote storage device 3 has a configuration in which each of the two tapes travels on two paths. Also downsizing.
　また、第１リール３６１と第２リール３６２とは、図７Ａに示すように、テープの幅方向に相当するＺ方向のそれぞれに対して、同じ位置に配設されている。第１リール３６１から引き出した第１テープ３５１と第２リール３６２から引き出した第２テープ３５２とは、テープの幅方向に対して同じ位置を走行する。この構成は、紙幣収納装置３の小型化に、さらに有利になる。 Further, as shown in FIG. 7A, the first reel 361 and the second reel 362 are arranged at the same position with respect to each of the Z directions corresponding to the tape width direction. The first tape 351 drawn from the first reel 361 and the second tape 352 drawn from the second reel 362 run at the same position in the tape width direction. This configuration is further advantageous for downsizing the bill storage device 3.
　尚、第１リール３６１と第２リール３６２とは、図７Ｂに示すように、Ｚ方向に対し一部が重なるように、ずらして配設してもよい。この構成においても、紙幣収納装置３の小型化が可能である。また、図示は省略するが、第１リール３６１と第２リール３６２とは、テープの幅方向に対し重ならないよう、ずれて配設してもよい。 Note that, as shown in FIG. 7B, the first reel 361 and the second reel 362 may be arranged so as to be partially overlapped in the Z direction. Even in this configuration, the bill storage device 3 can be downsized. Although not shown, the first reel 361 and the second reel 362 may be arranged so as not to overlap with each other in the tape width direction.
　また、第１共通ローラー３２４及び第２共通ローラー３２５が、二本のテープを案内するため、第１テープ３５１のテープ経路と第２テープ３５２のテープ経路とを個別に設ける構成と比較して、テープ経路を構成する部材が少なくなる。この構成は、紙幣収納装置３のコストダウンに有利になる。 In addition, since the first common roller 324 and the second common roller 325 guide two tapes, compared to a configuration in which the tape path of the first tape 351 and the tape path of the second tape 352 are provided separately, The number of members constituting the tape path is reduced. This configuration is advantageous in reducing the cost of the bill storage device 3.
　また、第１のローラー３４１と第２のローラー３４２とによって構成されるローラー対３４が、第１テープ３５１及び第２テープ３５２の間に紙幣１００を挟む挟持箇所を構成するため、紙幣１００を安定的に二本のテープの間に挟むことができる。 Moreover, since the roller pair 34 comprised by the 1st roller 341 and the 2nd roller 342 comprises the clamping location which pinches | interposes the banknote 100 between the 1st tape 351 and the 2nd tape 352, the banknote 100 is stabilized. It can be sandwiched between two tapes.
　ここで、第１のローラー３４１に対して、搬送路に沿って間隔を空けて第１共通ローラー３２４を配置することによって、第１共通ローラー３２４と第１のローラー３４１との間では、搬送路に沿って移動する紙幣１００と共に、重なった第１テープ３５１及び第２テープ３５２が、搬送路に沿って走行する。紙幣１００が第１テープ３５１及び第２テープ３５２に挟まれる前に、紙幣１００と第１テープ３５１とが重なった状態で搬送路に沿って走行するから、紙幣１００を、ローラー対３４の箇所において、安定して、第１テープ３５１と第２テープ３５２とによって挟むことができる。 Here, with respect to the first roller 341, the first common roller 324 is arranged at an interval along the conveyance path, so that the conveyance path is between the first common roller 324 and the first roller 341. The first tape 351 and the second tape 352 overlapped with the banknote 100 moving along the travel along the transport path. Before the banknote 100 is sandwiched between the first tape 351 and the second tape 352, the banknote 100 and the first tape 351 travel along the transport path in a state where the banknote 100 and the first tape 351 overlap with each other. It can be stably sandwiched between the first tape 351 and the second tape 352.
　また、この紙幣収納装置３は、図３又は図４に示すＸ－Ｙ平面において、ローラー対３４につながる搬送路の角度と、ローラー対３４からドラム３７の外周面までのテープの走行角度とが異なっている。このため、ドラム３７から紙幣１００が繰り出されるときに、紙幣１００を挟んでいた第２テープ３５２が、ローラー対３４の箇所において紙幣１００から離れると共に、その紙幣１００は、搬送路に沿って曲がりながら移動をする。そして、第１共通ローラー３２４の箇所において、紙幣１００を挟んでいた第１テープ３５１（及び、第１テープ３５１に重なった第２テープ３５２）が、紙幣１００から離れる。紙幣１００の搬送方向を変更するローラー対３４の箇所において、第１テープ３５１及び第２テープ３５２の両方が、紙幣１００から、同時に離れない構成にすることにより、紙幣１００の詰まりを抑制することができる。特に、曲がりながら移動をする紙幣１００には遠心力が作用する。この紙幣収納装置３の構成においては、ローラー対３４の箇所を出入口３１０に向かって通過する紙幣１００には、図３における右下方向の遠心力が作用する。この右下方向の遠心力が作用するときに、紙幣１００に対して作用する遠心力の方向に位置する第１テープ３５１が、紙幣１００と共に、搬送方向に沿って走行することにより、紙幣１００の詰まりを、より一層効果的に抑制することができる。 Further, the banknote storage device 3 has an angle of a conveyance path connected to the roller pair 34 and a running angle of the tape from the roller pair 34 to the outer peripheral surface of the drum 37 in the XY plane shown in FIG. Is different. For this reason, when the banknote 100 is drawn out from the drum 37, the second tape 352 sandwiching the banknote 100 is separated from the banknote 100 at the position of the roller pair 34, and the banknote 100 is bent along the conveyance path. Move. And in the location of the 1st common roller 324, the 1st tape 351 which sandwiched the banknote 100 (and the 2nd tape 352 which overlapped with the 1st tape 351) leaves | separates from the banknote 100. In the location of the roller pair 34 that changes the conveyance direction of the banknote 100, both the first tape 351 and the second tape 352 are configured not to be separated from the banknote 100 at the same time, thereby suppressing clogging of the banknote 100. it can. In particular, a centrifugal force acts on the banknote 100 that moves while bending. In the configuration of the banknote storage device 3, a centrifugal force in the lower right direction in FIG. 3 acts on the banknote 100 passing through the position of the roller pair 34 toward the entrance / exit 310. When the centrifugal force in the lower right direction acts, the first tape 351 positioned in the direction of the centrifugal force acting on the banknote 100 travels along the transport direction together with the banknote 100, thereby Clogging can be more effectively suppressed.
　（テープ規制部の構成）
　可動ガイド３２２には、図６に拡大して示すように、テープ規制部が設けられている。テープ規制部は、第２のローラー３４２によってドラム３７の外周面から離された第２テープ３５２の走行位置が、テープ幅方向（つまり、Ｚ方向）に、ずれることを規制する。 (Configuration of the tape regulation section)
The movable guide 322 is provided with a tape restricting portion as shown in an enlarged view in FIG. The tape restricting portion restricts the travel position of the second tape 352 separated from the outer peripheral surface of the drum 37 by the second roller 342 from shifting in the tape width direction (that is, the Z direction).
　この紙幣収納装置３（つまり、収納機構３００）は、二種類のテープ規制部を有している。テープ規制部の一つは、可動ガイド３２２に設けられた規制壁３８２によって構成されている。具体的に、可動ガイド３２２には、二つの貫通孔が形成されている。規制壁３８２は、貫通孔を形成する側壁である。第２のローラー３４２は、貫通孔内に配設されている。 The bill storage device 3 (that is, the storage mechanism 300) has two types of tape restricting portions. One of the tape restriction portions is configured by a restriction wall 382 provided on the movable guide 322. Specifically, two through holes are formed in the movable guide 322. The regulation wall 382 is a side wall that forms a through hole. The second roller 342 is disposed in the through hole.
　Ｚ方向に並んだ二本の第２テープ３５２は、それぞれ貫通孔を通過する。規制壁３８２は、第２テープ３５２の幅方向の両側に位置する。第２テープ３５２の走行位置が幅方向にずれると、第２テープ３５２と規制壁３８２とが干渉する。第２テープ３５２と規制壁３８２とが干渉することによって、第２テープ３５２の走行位置が、テープ幅方向にずれることが規制される。 The two second tapes 352 arranged in the Z direction pass through the through holes, respectively. The restriction walls 382 are located on both sides of the second tape 352 in the width direction. When the traveling position of the second tape 352 is shifted in the width direction, the second tape 352 and the regulation wall 382 interfere with each other. Interference between the second tape 352 and the restriction wall 382 restricts the travel position of the second tape 352 from shifting in the tape width direction.
　もう一つのテープ規制部は、前述した第２のローラー３４２によって構成されている。第２のローラー３４２は、詳細な図示は省略するが、外周面の幅方向中央部が、両端部よりも膨らんだクラウン形状を有している。クラウン形状を有する第２のローラー３４２は、第２テープ３５２の走行位置を、第２のローラー３４２の中央側へと寄せる機能を有している。尚、第２のローラー３４２を、クラウン形状を有すると共に、フランジ付きのローラーによって構成してもよい。第２のローラー３４２を、単なるフランジ付きのローラーによって構成してもよい。 Another tape restricting portion is configured by the second roller 342 described above. Although the detailed illustration is omitted, the second roller 342 has a crown shape in which the central portion in the width direction of the outer peripheral surface is swollen more than both end portions. The second roller 342 having a crown shape has a function of moving the traveling position of the second tape 352 toward the center of the second roller 342. In addition, you may comprise the 2nd roller 342 with a roller with a flange while having a crown shape. The second roller 342 may be a simple flanged roller.
　ドラム３７に巻いた紙幣１００及びテープの量が増えると、図４に示すように、ドラム３７の見かけの径が大きくなる。前述したように、可動ガイド３２２は、ドラム３７の見かけの径が大きくなると、反時計回り方向に回動をする。これに伴い、テープ規制部の、ドラム３７の中心に対する相対位置が変化する。具体的には、ドラム３７の見かけの径が小さくなると、図３に示すように、規制壁３８２及び第２のローラー３４２は、ドラム３７の中心に近づき、ドラム３７の見かけの径が大きくなると、図４に示すように、規制壁３８２及び第２のローラー３４２は、ドラム３７の中心から離れる。つまり、規制壁３８２及び第２のローラー３４２は、ドラム３７の見かけの径の大小に関わらず、ドラム３７の外周部の近くに位置する。尚、ここでいう外周部は、ドラム３７に巻いた紙幣１００及びテープの最外周部を意味する。規制壁３８２及び第２のローラー３４２が、常に、ドラム３７の外周部の近くにおいて、第２テープ３５２の走行位置のずれを規制することによって、ドラム３７に巻いたテープの位置がずれることを、効果的に抑制することができる。 As the amount of the banknote 100 and tape wound around the drum 37 increases, the apparent diameter of the drum 37 increases as shown in FIG. As described above, the movable guide 322 rotates counterclockwise as the apparent diameter of the drum 37 increases. Accordingly, the relative position of the tape restricting portion with respect to the center of the drum 37 changes. Specifically, when the apparent diameter of the drum 37 decreases, as shown in FIG. 3, the regulation wall 382 and the second roller 342 approach the center of the drum 37, and when the apparent diameter of the drum 37 increases, As shown in FIG. 4, the restriction wall 382 and the second roller 342 are separated from the center of the drum 37. That is, the regulation wall 382 and the second roller 342 are located near the outer periphery of the drum 37 regardless of the apparent diameter of the drum 37. In addition, the outer peripheral part here means the outermost peripheral part of the banknote 100 wound around the drum 37 and the tape. The regulation wall 382 and the second roller 342 always regulate the displacement of the running position of the second tape 352 in the vicinity of the outer peripheral portion of the drum 37, thereby shifting the position of the tape wound around the drum 37. It can be effectively suppressed.
　特に、紙幣１００に偽造防止用のスレッド等が付加されていたり、紙幣１００の一部に帯状に伸びる凹又は凸が形成されていたりすると、紙幣１００がドラム３７の外周面に沿って曲がり難い場合がある。この場合、ドラム３７に巻いた紙幣１００の位置が、ドラム３７の軸方向にずれてしまい、紙幣１００の位置ずれに伴い、ドラム３７に巻いた第１テープ３５１及び第２テープ３５２の位置が、幅方向にずれる恐れがある。これに対し、規制壁３８２及び第２のローラー３４２を可動ガイド３２２に設ける構成は、ドラム３７の外周部の近くにおいて、常に、第２テープ３５２の位置ずれを規制する。このことによって、紙幣１００が、ドラム３７の外周面に沿って曲がり難い場合であっても、ドラム３７に巻いた紙幣１００の位置がずれることを、効果的に抑制することができる。 In particular, when a forgery prevention thread or the like is added to the banknote 100 or a concave or convex shape extending in a band shape is formed on a part of the banknote 100, the banknote 100 is difficult to bend along the outer peripheral surface of the drum 37. There is. In this case, the position of the banknote 100 wound around the drum 37 is shifted in the axial direction of the drum 37, and the positions of the first tape 351 and the second tape 352 wound around the drum 37 with the position shift of the banknote 100 are There is a risk of shifting in the width direction. In contrast, the configuration in which the regulating wall 382 and the second roller 342 are provided on the movable guide 322 always regulates the positional deviation of the second tape 352 near the outer periphery of the drum 37. Accordingly, even when the banknote 100 is difficult to bend along the outer peripheral surface of the drum 37, it is possible to effectively suppress the position of the banknote 100 wound around the drum 37 from being shifted.
　尚、この紙幣収納装置３は、規制壁３８２と、クラウン形状の第２のローラー３４２との二種類のテープ規制部を有している。紙幣収納装置３は、いずれか一方のテープ規制部のみを有するようにしてもよい。また、紙幣収納装置３は、規制壁３８２、及び、クラウン形状の第２のローラー３４２とは異なる構成のテープ規制部を有するようにしてもよい。 In addition, this banknote storage apparatus 3 has two types of tape control parts, the control wall 382 and the crown-shaped second roller 342. The banknote storage device 3 may have only one of the tape restriction portions. Further, the bill storage device 3 may have a tape restricting portion having a configuration different from that of the restricting wall 382 and the crown-shaped second roller 342.
　（押さえローラーの構成）
　図３に示すように、押さえローラー３８１は、ドラム３７に紙幣１００が巻かれていないときには、ドラム３７の外周面（正確には、第１テープ３５１よりもドラム３７の径方向の外側に巻かれる第２テープ３５２）に接触しない。押さえローラー３８１とドラム３７の外周面との間には、所定の隙間が設けられている。可動ガイド３２２は、付勢部材によって、図３における時計回り方向に付勢されているが、可動ガイド３２２に当たる当接部材３８３が、紙幣収納装置３に設けられている。ドラム３７に巻いた紙幣１００が所定枚数以下のとき（換言すると、ドラム３７の見かけの径が所定以下のとき）に、可動ガイド３２２は、当接部材３８３に当たることによって、それ以上に、時計回り方向に回動することが阻止される。その結果、押さえローラー３８１とドラム３７に巻いたテープとの間に、所定の隙間が設けられる。 (Pressure roller configuration)
As shown in FIG. 3, when the banknote 100 is not wound on the drum 37, the pressing roller 381 is wound on the outer peripheral surface of the drum 37 (more precisely, on the outer side in the radial direction of the drum 37 than the first tape 351. No contact with the second tape 352). A predetermined gap is provided between the pressing roller 381 and the outer peripheral surface of the drum 37. The movable guide 322 is urged in the clockwise direction in FIG. 3 by the urging member, but an abutting member 383 that contacts the movable guide 322 is provided in the bill storage device 3. When the number of banknotes 100 wound around the drum 37 is equal to or less than a predetermined number (in other words, when the apparent diameter of the drum 37 is equal to or less than a predetermined value), the movable guide 322 comes into contact with the abutting member 383, thereby further clockwise. Rotation in the direction is prevented. As a result, a predetermined gap is provided between the pressing roller 381 and the tape wound around the drum 37.
　ドラム３７に巻いた紙幣１００の枚数が増えて、ドラム３７の見かけの径が大きくなると、押さえローラー３８１は、ドラム３７に巻いたテープに当たる。押さえローラー３８１は、ドラム３７に巻いた第１テープ３５１及び第２テープ３５２を押さえる。これにより、ドラム３７に巻いた紙幣１００の位置がずれることが抑制される。特に、紙幣１００がドラム３７の外周面に沿って曲がり難い場合に、押さえローラー３８１は、ドラム３７に巻いた紙幣１００の位置がずれることを、効果的に抑制する。 When the number of banknotes 100 wound around the drum 37 increases and the apparent diameter of the drum 37 increases, the pressing roller 381 hits the tape wound around the drum 37. The pressing roller 381 presses the first tape 351 and the second tape 352 wound around the drum 37. Thereby, it is suppressed that the position of the banknote 100 wound around the drum 37 is shifted. In particular, when the banknote 100 is difficult to bend along the outer peripheral surface of the drum 37, the pressing roller 381 effectively suppresses the position of the banknote 100 wound around the drum 37 from being shifted.
　ドラム３７に巻いた紙幣１００の枚数がさらに増えて、ドラム３７の見かけの径がさらに大きくなると、図４に示すように、押さえローラー３８１がドラム３７に巻いたテープに押される。それによって、可動ガイド３２２は、反時計回り方向に回動する。可動ガイド３２２が、例えば、ばねによって付勢されていると、反時計回り方向の回動角度が大きくなるほど、可動ガイド３２２に作用する付勢力が大きくなって、押さえローラー３８１がテープを押さえる力は強くなる。 When the number of banknotes 100 wound around the drum 37 is further increased and the apparent diameter of the drum 37 is further increased, the pressing roller 381 is pushed by the tape wound around the drum 37 as shown in FIG. Thereby, the movable guide 322 rotates counterclockwise. For example, when the movable guide 322 is urged by a spring, the urging force acting on the movable guide 322 increases as the rotation angle in the counterclockwise direction increases, and the force with which the pressing roller 381 presses the tape is increased. Become stronger.
　前述したように、ドラム３７に巻いた紙幣１００が所定枚数以下のときには、押さえローラー３８１は、テープに当たらない。所定枚数は、例えば一枚としてもよいし、数十枚としてもよい。所定枚数は、一枚と数十枚の間の適宜の数にすればよい。 As described above, when the number of banknotes 100 wound around the drum 37 is less than a predetermined number, the pressing roller 381 does not hit the tape. The predetermined number may be, for example, one or several tens. The predetermined number may be an appropriate number between one and several tens.
　ドラム３７に巻いた紙幣１００が少ないときに、押さえローラー３８１がドラム３７に巻いた第１テープ３５１及び第２テープ３５２を押さえると、押さえローラー３８１や可動ガイド３２２の、部品ばらつきや、組み立てばらつきに起因して、第１テープ３５１及び／又は第２テープ３５２の位置がずれる恐れがあるためである。可動ガイド３２２が、所定条件下において押さえローラー３８１をドラム３７の外周面から離すことにより、第１テープ３５１及び／又は第２テープ３５２の位置がずれることを抑制することができる。 When the banknotes 100 wound around the drum 37 are few, if the pressing roller 381 presses the first tape 351 and the second tape 352 wound around the drum 37, the pressing roller 381 and the movable guide 322 may have component variations and assembly variations. This is because the position of the first tape 351 and / or the second tape 352 may be shifted. The movable guide 322 can suppress the displacement of the positions of the first tape 351 and / or the second tape 352 by separating the pressing roller 381 from the outer peripheral surface of the drum 37 under a predetermined condition.
　尚、ドラム３７に巻いた紙幣１００の量が比較的多い時には、押さえローラー３８１や可動ガイド３２２の、部品ばらつきや、組み立てばらつきの影響は、紙幣１００同士の摩擦等によって相殺される。そのため、ドラム３７に巻いた紙幣の量が比較的多い時に、押さえローラー３８１が、ドラム３７に巻いた第１テープ３５１及び第２テープ３５２を押さえても、第１テープ３５１及び／又は第２テープ３５２の位置は、ずれない。 When the amount of the banknotes 100 wound around the drum 37 is relatively large, the effects of variations in parts and assembly of the pressing roller 381 and the movable guide 322 are offset by friction between the banknotes 100. Therefore, when the amount of banknotes wound on the drum 37 is relatively large, even if the pressing roller 381 presses the first tape 351 and the second tape 352 wound on the drum 37, the first tape 351 and / or the second tape. The position of 352 does not shift.
　（紙幣収納装置の小型化に有利な各種構成）
　ドラム３７の見かけの径が大きくなって、可動ガイド３２２が反時計回り方向に回動したときに、第１リール３６１及び第２リール３６２の見かけの径は小さくなる。このとき、図４に一点鎖線で示すように、可動ガイド３２２の一部は、第１リール３６１の見かけの径が変化する領域内に位置する。つまり、この紙幣収納装置３は、第１リール３６１の見かけの径が変化する領域と、可動ガイド３２２が変位する領域との一部が重なるよう構成されている。こうすることで、フレーム３１内のスペース効率が高くなり、紙幣収納装置３を小型化することができる。 (Various configurations advantageous for downsizing the bill storage device)
When the apparent diameter of the drum 37 is increased and the movable guide 322 is rotated counterclockwise, the apparent diameters of the first reel 361 and the second reel 362 are decreased. At this time, as indicated by a one-dot chain line in FIG. 4, a part of the movable guide 322 is located in a region where the apparent diameter of the first reel 361 changes. That is, the banknote storage device 3 is configured such that a region where the apparent diameter of the first reel 361 changes and a region where the movable guide 322 is displaced overlap each other. By doing so, the space efficiency in the frame 31 is increased, and the bill storage device 3 can be miniaturized.
　可動ガイド３２２には、第３共通ローラー３２６が取り付けられている。第３共通ローラー３２６は、可動ガイド３２２と共に変位する。第３共通ローラー３２６は、ドラム３７の見かけの径が小さいときには、第１テープ３５１及び第２テープ３５２に触れない（図３参照）。ドラム３７の見かけの径が大きくなって、可動ガイド３２２が反時計回り方向に回動すると、第３共通ローラー３２６は、第１共通ローラー３２４と第２共通ローラー３２５との間で、重なった第１テープ３５１及び第２テープ３５２に触れて、第１テープ３５１及び第２テープ３５２を案内する。このときに第３共通ローラー３２６は、第１リール３６１の見かけの径が変化する領域内に位置している。 A third common roller 326 is attached to the movable guide 322. The third common roller 326 is displaced together with the movable guide 322. The third common roller 326 does not touch the first tape 351 and the second tape 352 when the apparent diameter of the drum 37 is small (see FIG. 3). When the apparent diameter of the drum 37 is increased and the movable guide 322 is rotated counterclockwise, the third common roller 326 is overlapped between the first common roller 324 and the second common roller 325. The first tape 351 and the second tape 352 are guided by touching the first tape 351 and the second tape 352. At this time, the third common roller 326 is located in a region where the apparent diameter of the first reel 361 changes.
　尚、第１リール３６１及び第２リール３６２の配設位置が、図３及び図４に示す位置とは異なる構成の紙幣収納装置では、第２リール３６２の見かけの径が変化する領域と、可動ガイド３２２が変位する領域との一部が重なるようにしてもよい。また、第１リール３６１及び第２リール３６２それぞれの見かけの径が変化する領域と、可動ガイド３２２が変位する領域との一部が重なるよう、紙幣収納装置を構成してもよい。 In the bill storage device in which the arrangement positions of the first reel 361 and the second reel 362 are different from the positions shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the area where the apparent diameter of the second reel 362 changes and the movable position are movable. A part of the area where the guide 322 is displaced may overlap. Moreover, you may comprise a banknote storage apparatus so that the area | region where the apparent diameter of each of the 1st reel 361 and the 2nd reel 362 may change, and the area | region where the movable guide 322 displaces may overlap.
　ここで、従来の紙幣収納装置は、二本のテープが紙幣を厚み方向に挟むため、第１リール及び第２リールのいずれか一方は、フレーム内の第１領域に配設され、他方は、第２領域に配設されていた。しかしながら、この構成は、第１領域に、ドラムとリールとの両方を配設しなければならないため、紙幣収納装置が大型化してしまうという問題があった。 Here, in the conventional banknote storage device, since two tapes sandwich the banknote in the thickness direction, one of the first reel and the second reel is disposed in the first area in the frame, and the other is It was disposed in the second region. However, this configuration has a problem that the bill storage device becomes large because both the drum and the reel must be disposed in the first region.
　これに対し、この紙幣収納装置３において、ドラム３７は、第１領域３１１に配設され、第１リール３６１及び第２リール３６２は共に、第２領域３１２に配設されている。第１領域３１１においてリールの配設スペースを省略することができるため、紙幣収納装置３を小型化することができる。 In contrast, in the banknote storage device 3, the drum 37 is disposed in the first region 311, and the first reel 361 and the second reel 362 are both disposed in the second region 312. Since the space for arranging the reels in the first region 311 can be omitted, the bill storage device 3 can be downsized.
　第１リール３６１及び第２リール３６２を共に、第２領域３１２に配設しても、この紙幣収納装置３は、可動ガイド３２２に連通部３２３を設け、第１テープ３５１及び第２テープ３５２が、連通部３２３を通り抜けるよう構成している。こうすることによって、第１テープ３５１と第２テープ３５２とは、ドラム３７が配設された第１領域３１１において、紙幣１００を挟むことができる。 Even if both the first reel 361 and the second reel 362 are disposed in the second region 312, the banknote storage device 3 is provided with the communication portion 323 in the movable guide 322, and the first tape 351 and the second tape 352 are provided. , It is configured to pass through the communication portion 323. By carrying out like this, the 1st tape 351 and the 2nd tape 352 can pinch the banknote 100 in the 1st field 311 in which drum 37 was arranged.

The guide roller 391 is disposed in the communication portion 323 of the movable guide 322. The guide roller 391 is disposed at the same position as the first common roller 324 shown in FIG. Unlike the first common roller 324, the guide roller 391 guides only the first tape 351 to the first roller 341.
　第１テープ３５１は、ガイドローラー３９１を介して第１のローラー３４１に至る。ガイドローラー３９１と第１のローラー３４１との間で、第１テープ３５１は、紙幣１００の搬送路に沿って走行する。第１のローラー３４１は、図３に示す第１のローラー３４１と同じ位置に配設されている。第１のローラー３４１は、第１テープ３５１のみを、ドラム３７の外周面に向かって案内する。 The first tape 351 reaches the first roller 341 via the guide roller 391. The first tape 351 travels along the conveyance path of the banknote 100 between the guide roller 391 and the first roller 341. The first roller 341 is disposed at the same position as the first roller 341 shown in FIG. The first roller 341 guides only the first tape 351 toward the outer peripheral surface of the drum 37.
　第２リール３６２から引き出された第２テープ３５２は、複数の迂回ローラー３９２によって、可動ガイド３２２を迂回するように第１領域３１１へと導かれる。第２テープ３５２は、第１領域３１１においてＹ方向に走行し第２のローラー３４２に至る。第２のローラー３４２は、第２テープ３５２を、第１テープ３５１に重なるように、ドラム３７の外周面に向かって案内する。 The second tape 352 pulled out from the second reel 362 is guided to the first region 311 so as to bypass the movable guide 322 by a plurality of bypass rollers 392. The second tape 352 travels in the Y direction in the first region 311 and reaches the second roller 342. The second roller 342 guides the second tape 352 toward the outer peripheral surface of the drum 37 so as to overlap the first tape 351.
　紙幣１００は、第１のローラー３４１と第２のローラー３４２とによって構成されるローラー対３４の箇所において、第１テープ３５１及び第２テープ３５２の間に挟まれる。第１テープ３５１と第２テープ３５２との両方を、異なる経路を通じて、フレーム３１内の第２領域３１２から第１領域３１１へと導くことによって、紙幣１００を二本のテープの間に挟むことができる。 The banknote 100 is sandwiched between the first tape 351 and the second tape 352 at the position of the roller pair 34 constituted by the first roller 341 and the second roller 342. The banknote 100 can be sandwiched between two tapes by guiding both the first tape 351 and the second tape 352 from the second region 312 in the frame 31 to the first region 311 through different paths. it can.
　この紙幣収納装置３０においても、ドラム３７は、第１領域３１１に配設され、第１リール３６１及び第２リール３６２は共に、第２領域３１２に配設されている。第１領域３１１においてリールの配設スペースを省略することができるため、紙幣収納装置３０を小型化することができる。 Also in the banknote storage device 30, the drum 37 is disposed in the first region 311, and the first reel 361 and the second reel 362 are both disposed in the second region 312. Since the space for arranging the reels in the first region 311 can be omitted, the bill storage device 30 can be downsized.
　尚、図８及び図９の紙幣収納装置３０では、第１テープ３５１及び第２テープ３５２は、挟持箇所から第１リール３６１及び第２リール３６２までのテープ経路において、重ならない。 In addition, in the banknote storage apparatus 30 of FIG.8 and FIG.9, the 1st tape 351 and the 2nd tape 352 do not overlap in the tape path | route from a clamping location to the 1st reel 361 and the 2nd reel 362.
