Definitions

  • the invention relates to a roller storage device for storing notes of value for a device for handling notes of value.
  • Devices for handling notes of value usually have several storage devices for storing or temporarily storing notes of value.
  • notes of value can be stored as stacks in cash boxes or roll storage.
  • Roll storage can be used to temporarily store notes of value deposited in the device without the deposited notes of value being brought together with the notes of value stored in the cash boxes of the device. This means that the deposited notes of value can be dispensed again in full if necessary.
  • roll storage systems are known in which only outer foils are used, which hold the notes when Store on the storage drum. Wedge-shaped scrapers are then used to unwind the notes of value, especially to remove the notes of value from the storage drum.
  • this principle is prone to errors and wear.
  • a roll storage device for storing notes of value for a device for handling notes of value comprises a storage drum arranged to rotate about a first axis of rotation and a single film supply shaft arranged to rotate about a second axis of rotation, the film supply shaft can be designed to be divided in the axial direction, as well as at least three strip-shaped films.
  • a first end of each film is connected to the film supply shaft and a second end of each film is connected to the storage drum, so that the films can be unwound or wound up from the film supply shaft and can be wound up or unwound accordingly by the storage drum.
  • At least one of the films is guided with the aid of at least one deflection element, so that the films form an inlet area between the deflection element and the storage drum, in which the center axes of the respective films, in particular in a longitudinal direction of the films, run parallel to one another.
  • the films can be wound up and unwound next to one another on the storage drum and the film supply shaft.
  • notes of value can be arranged one after the other between the films and wound onto or off the roll storage and thus stored or removed.
  • the infeed area extends in particular in a plane that is tangential to the storage drum and tangential to the deflection element.
  • a first part of the films, with at least one of the films, is guided as inner films between the film supply shaft and the inlet area around at least part of the circumference of the storage drum.
  • This part of the films can be guided between the film supply shaft and the inlet area either with contact with the storage drum, i.e. guided with the aid of the storage drum itself, or guided without contact with the storage drum, but in particular guided with the aid of support rollers.
  • a second part of the films, with at least one of the films, as outer films between the film supply shaft and the inlet area is not guided around at least part of the circumference of the storage drum, or is guided around the circumference of the storage drum on a different side than the inner films, and a note of value can be transported at least in the inlet area between the outer films and the inner films with the help of the films and can be wound up or unwound on the storage drum.
  • the inner films then lie at least partially between the note of value and the storage drum and the outer films place the note of value on the circumference of the storage drum from the outside when the films and notes of value are wound onto the storage drum. This makes it particularly easy to feed notes of value to the inlet area and the deflection elements.
  • the at least one deflection element preferably deflects one of the inner films.
  • the films are at least partially located on a part of the circumference of the storage drum between the film supply shaft and the inlet area or the deflection elements. This enables a particularly compact guidance of the films and a compact design of the roller storage.
  • the films can be wound and unwound next to each other on the film supply shaft.
  • the films can be wound up next to each other on the storage drum. This means that the diameter of the wound up films is smaller than if they were wound on top of each other. This enables a compact design of the roll storage.
  • the deflection element is a deflection roller that has a surface on which one of the films rests at least partially, the surface being wave-shaped, in particular having part of a wave shape, being curved or convex.
  • the surface being wave-shaped, in particular having part of a wave shape, being curved or convex.
  • the wave shape of the outer surface extends in the direction of the axis of rotation of the deflection roller or extends along the circumference of the deflection roller.
  • valleys of the waves extend in a direction parallel to the axis of rotation of the deflection roller or orthogonal to the axis of rotation of the deflection roller.
  • each of the films is deflected using a deflection element, so that the films form the inlet area between the respective deflection element and the storage drum.
  • the deflection elements are deflection rollers, are arranged next to one another in the direction of their axes of rotation and a cylindrical envelope surface of each of the deflection rollers tangentially touches the same plane.
  • the inlet area in particular lies in this plane.
  • the deflection rollers or their axes of rotation of the inner films in particular lie on one side of the plane and the deflection rollers or their axes of rotation of the outer films on another side of the plane. This enables particularly secure transport of the notes of value in the inlet area.
  • the deflection elements are deflection rollers that are arranged next to one another and the cylindrical envelope surfaces of each of the deflection rollers overlap in a direction parallel to their axes of rotation.
  • tangents of the cylindrical envelope surface lie parallel to the plane of the inlet area.
  • the films run next to each other in the inlet area in the same plane.
  • the deflection rollers can also be arranged accordingly, for example if the cylindrical surface of each of the deflection rollers touches the plane of the infeed area tangentially. This enables particularly safe transport of the notes of value between the films in the infeed area.
  • a further aspect relates to a device for handling notes of value with at least one roller storage with the aforementioned features.
  • Figure 1 shows a schematic side view of a device 100 for handling notes of value.
  • the device 100 serves both for the deposit of notes of value by an operator and for the withdrawal of notes of value to an operator and is also referred to as a recycling cash machine.
  • the device 100 can also serve exclusively for the withdrawal of notes of value or the deposit of notes of value.
  • the device 100 can be an automatic cash register system, a self-checkout cash register or a so-called automatic safe cash register.
  • the device 100 comprises a safe 10 in which four cash boxes 12a to 12d are arranged and which protects the cash boxes 12a to 12d from unauthorized access, in particular from theft and attempts at manipulation.
  • the safe 10 has a safe door 34 which can be opened and closed via a locking unit 36.
  • the cash boxes 12a to 12d are each arranged in a receiving compartment 32a to 32d in the safe 10.
  • the cash boxes 12a to 12d are in the embodiment according to Figure 1 arranged horizontally in the device 100. In other devices for handling notes of value, the cash cassettes 12a to 12d can alternatively be arranged vertically.
  • the cash boxes 12a to 12d can be removed from the device 100 and are used for storing and transporting notes of value, in particular banknotes and/or checks.
  • the notes of value are stored in the cash boxes 12a to 12d in the form of a stack. One of these stacks is indicated in the first cash box 12a, for example.
  • One of the notes of value in this stack of notes of value is designated, for example, with the reference number 13.
  • the notes of value 13 in the cash cassettes 12a to 12d are arranged standing on one of their edges, preferably on one of their longitudinal edges.
  • Each cash box 12a to 12d has an opening for feeding in notes of value 13 and for removing notes of value 13.
  • a separating and stacking unit 14a to 14d is arranged, with the help of which, on the one hand, notes of value 13 can be fed into the cash boxes 12a to 12d and, on the other hand, notes of value 13 stored in the cash boxes 12a to 12d can be separated from stacks of notes of value held in the cash boxes 12a to 12d and removed from the cash box 12a to 12d.
  • a switch 16a to 16d is arranged, with the help of which a note of value 13 to be fed to the cash boxes 12a to 12d is branched off from a transport path 18 and fed to the separating and stacking unit 14a to 14d which is arranged in front of the cash box 12a to 12d into which the note of value 13 is to be transported.
  • the switches 16a to 16d also serve to transport the notes 13 taken from the cash boxes 12a to 12d to the Transport path 18.
  • the safe 10 further has an opening 20 through which notes of value 13 transported along the transport path 18 can be transported into the safe 10 or out of the safe 10.
  • the device 100 further comprises an input and output compartment 22 through which notes of value 13 to be deposited can be issued to an operator by an operator.
  • notes of value 13 to be deposited can be issued to an operator by an operator.
  • only notes of value 13 are dispensed via the input and output compartment 22, and in the case of a pure depositing ATM, only notes of value 13 are deposited via the input and output compartment 22.
  • notes of value 13 deposited via the input and output compartment 22 are separated and fed individually along the transport path 24 to a reading unit 26, with the aid of which, for example, the authenticity, the nominal value and/or the serial number of each deposited note of value 13 can be determined. Furthermore, notes of value 13 that have been deposited and/or are to be paid out can be temporarily stored in a buffer 30.
  • the buffer 30 can temporarily store notes of value 13 that are not suitable for payment and/or notes of value 13 that have been deposited and/or identified as not authentic by the reading unit 26 or notes of value 13 that have not been removed by an operator.
  • Figure 2 shows a side view of a roller storage 200, in particular for the device 100 for handling notes of value 13.
  • the roller storage 200 can, for example, be part of the intermediate storage 30, to which notes of value 13 are fed via the transport path 24.
  • Figures 3 and 4 show perspective views of the roller storage 200 from different directions.
  • the roll storage 200 comprises a storage drum 202 which is arranged to rotate about a rotation axis 204.
  • the roll storage 200 also comprises a film supply shaft 206 which is arranged to rotate about a rotation axis 208.
  • Four band-shaped films 210, 212, 214, 218 are each connected at a first end to the storage drum 202 and at a second end to the film supply shaft 206.
  • Two of the foils 210, 212, 214, 218 are arranged next to each other or run parallel to each other so that in the side view they Figure 2 overlap.
  • the films 210, 212 form an inner pair of films and the films 214, 218 form an outer pair of films.
  • the inner films 210, 212 are each guided and deflected partially around the circumference of the storage drum 202 with the aid of support rollers 220 and deflection elements designed as deflection rollers 224, 226.
  • the outer films 214, 218 are each deflected with the aid of deflection rollers 228, 230 without being guided around the storage drum 202 and without support rollers.
  • the deflection rollers 224, 226, 228, 230 are arranged in such a way that the films 210, 212, 214, 218 run parallel between the deflection rollers 224, 226, 228, 230 and the storage drum 202, in particular the films 210, 212, 214, 218 run next to each other in the same plane. Just as all films 210, 212, 214, 218 run next to each other, they are also offset on the film supply shaft 206 and the Storage drum 202 is arranged. Furthermore, the deflection rollers 224, 226, 228, 230 are arranged offset accordingly.
  • the area between the deflection rollers 224, 226, 228, 230 and the storage drum 202 is referred to as the infeed area 232.
  • a note of value 13 can be transferred from the transport path 24 to the roller storage 200. Because the inner films 210, 212 are guided around the storage drum 202, a particularly simple feeding of notes of value 13 into the infeed area 232 is possible.
  • the note of value 13 can be arranged between the inner foils 210, 212 and the outer foils 214, 218 in particular with the aid of the deflection rollers 224, 226, 228, 230 and can thus be wound up or stored on the storage drum 202 via the inlet area between the foils 210, 212, 214, 218.
  • the storage drum 202 is rotated in the direction of the arrow P1, which results in the foils 210, 212, 214, 218 being unwound from the foil supply shaft 206 and moved in the direction of the arrows P2.
  • the foil supply shaft 206 rotates in the direction of the arrow P3. In this way, a large number of individual notes of value 13 can be wound up one after the other onto the storage drum 202.
  • the films 210, 212, 214, 218 are located in particular opposite the front or the back of the note of value 13 and contact the respective side of the note of value 13.
  • the inner films 210, 212 are located in the wound state on the storage drum 202 between the note of value 13 and the storage drum 202, so that when unwinding the note of value 13 is safely removed from the storage drum 202 is lifted off.
  • no scraper or a stationary wedge-shaped element is therefore necessary to detach or lift off the notes of value 13 from the storage drum 202.
  • the foil supply shaft 206 is rotated in the opposite direction of the arrow P3, so that the foils 210, 212, 214, 218 also move in the opposite direction of the arrows P2 and the storage drum 202 rotates in the opposite direction of the arrow P1.
  • the stored notes of value 13 are thus transported between the foils 210, 212, 214, 218 until they leave the inlet area 232 between the deflection rollers 224, 226, 228, 230.
  • the roll storage 200 further comprises a drive unit 300 with a motor and gear elements for driving the rotation axis 204 of the storage drum 202 and the rotation axis 208 of the film supply shaft 206.
  • the deflection rollers 224, 226, 228, 230 can further comprise encoders to determine rotational speeds of the deflection rollers 224, 226, 228, 230. Based on the determined rotational speeds, the drive unit 300 can be controlled such that the films 210, 212, 214, 218 are driven and moved synchronously.
  • the film supply shaft 206 can comprise lateral limiting elements which guide the films 210, 212, 214, 218 laterally on the film supply shaft 206 during winding or unwinding.
  • lateral limiting elements which guide the films 210, 212, 214, 218 laterally on the film supply shaft 206 during winding or unwinding.
  • two Limiting elements are designated by the reference numerals 302, 304.
  • a single film supply shaft 206 is sufficient to wind the inner films 210, 212 and the outer films 214, 218.
  • FIG. 5 to 7 show a roller storage 500. Elements with the same structure and the same function have the same reference numerals.
  • the inner films 210, 212 in the roll storage 500 are not guided around the circumference of the storage drum 202 with the help of support rollers 220, 222. Instead, the films 210, 212 lie directly against the storage drum 202 and are thus partially guided around its circumference. This enables a particularly space-saving design.
  • the deflection rollers 224, 226, 228, 230 deflect the films 210, 212, 214, 218 and thus form the inlet area 232, as already described in connection with the Figures 2 to 4 described.
  • a different number of films can be provided. At least three films are to be provided, with at least one inner and at least one outer film being provided. Furthermore, a total of four, five or six films are possible, with at least two inner and at least two outer films preferably being provided.
  • deflection rollers 224, 226, 228, 230 shown for the roll storage units 200, 500, additional deflection rollers can also be provided depending on the number of films.
  • the deflection rollers 224, 226, 228, 230 are preferably arranged and designed such that the notes of value 13 are meandered by the deflection rollers 224, 226, 228, 230.
  • This can be achieved, for example, by the circumferential surfaces of the deflection rollers 224, 226, 228, 230 being curved or wave-shaped around the circumference of the deflection rollers 224, 226, 228, 230, in particular being convex.
  • the circumferential surface of the deflection rollers 224, 226, 228, 230 can have notches.
  • the valleys of the wave shape extend in a direction parallel to a rotation axis of the respective deflection roller 224, 226, 228, 230. This increases the stability of the notes of value 13 during transport, in particular in the inlet area 232.
  • the deflection rollers 224, 226, 228, 230 can also be arranged in such a way that a cylindrical envelope surface of the deflection rollers 224, 226, 228, 230 overlap in a direction parallel to their axes of rotation. This means that the deflection rollers 224, 226, 228, 230, in particular when viewed from Figures 2 or 5 can overlap. This increases the stability of the notes of value 13 during transport, especially in the infeed area 232.
