Description

[Detailed description of the invention] "Industrial application field" This invention is a bill receiving machine that separates stacked bills loaded into a bill deposit machine, bill counting machine, etc. one by one and takes them into the machine. It is related to the device.

"Prior Art" FIGS. 1 and 2 show a conventional example in which a bill receiving device 2 is provided on the upper part of a body 1 of a bill depositing machine, and the bill receiving device 2 is shown in FIG. As shown in FIG. 1, there is a bill loading section 3 which is a recess for loading bills S in a stacked state, and a separation section for separating the bills S loaded in this bill loading section 3 one by one and taking them into the machine body 1. It consists of a sending section 4. The banknote loading section 3 forms an opening 6 for passing a small amount of banknotes S between a mounting plate 5 having a downwardly sloped front end and the front end of this mounting plate 5. A kicker having a vertical plate 7 for abutting and aligning, and a protrusion 8 facing the surface of the placing plate 5 and kicking out the banknotes S on the placing plate 5 one by one from the bottom layer to the opening 6. It is composed of a roller 9. Further, the separating and sending unit 4 is made to face the opening 6 in a state close to the placing plate 5, contacts the lowest layer of banknotes S on the placing plate 5, and transfers the banknotes S between the banknotes S. A take-in roller 10 for taking in bills into the machine body 1 by a frictional force greater than the frictional force, and a bill conveyance gap 11 disposed opposite to the surface of the take-in roller 10.
It is composed of a friction member 12 that applies a frictional force to the banknotes S passing through to prevent diagonal feeding or double-bill feeding. Note that a conveying path 13 is connected to the taking-in roller 10 of the separating and sending section 4 for conveying the taken-in banknotes S to a discriminating section (not shown) or the like.

However, with such a banknote loading device, if the banknotes S to be loaded are not aligned accurately due to mixing of circulating banknotes, or the banknotes S are
When the alignment of the banknotes S is disrupted, as shown in FIG. In such a case, the correction action by the friction member 12 cannot compensate for double-bill feeding, resulting in problems such as jamming of banknotes S and an increase in the rate of removal of defective banknotes at the discriminating unit. It was hot.

``Purpose of the invention'' The present invention has been made in view of the above-mentioned circumstances, and an object thereof is to provide a banknote loading device that can stabilize the loading state of banknotes and mainly prevent double-bill feeding.

"Structure of the invention" In order to achieve this purpose, this invention
A banknote loading section is constituted by a placing plate on which the fed banknotes are placed in a stacked state, and a vertical plate on which the leading edge of the fed banknotes comes into contact with the placing plate. In the bill taking device, an opening is provided between the vertical plate and the bill through which the bill passes in small amounts, and a take-in roller for taking the bill on the placement plate into the machine faces the opening. A shutter is provided movably along the vertical plate to normally close the opening between the taking-in roller and to open the opening apart from the taking-in roller when the taking-in roller is taking in banknotes. Near the board,
A kicking roller that is driven immediately before the shutter is opened to kick out the banknotes near the lowest layer of the banknote loading section and apply vibration is provided facing the surface of the placing plate, and facing the take-in roller. The present invention is characterized in that a notch 15a is formed at the end of the shutter that engages the outer circumference of the take-in roller when the shutter closes the opening.

“Embodiment” The present invention will be described below based on an embodiment shown in FIGS. 3 to 8.
A shutter 15 is provided on the vertical plate 7 of the bill loading section 3 so as to be movable up and down along the vertical plate 7. The shutter 15 normally closes the opening 6 and opens the opening 6 when the separating and sending section 4 takes in the bill S. It is what it is. Also,
A kicking roller 9 is provided near the placing plate 5 of the banknote loading section 3, for example, by passing through the placing plate 5 so as to face the surface thereof. A protrusion 8 is provided on the outer periphery.

As shown in FIGS. 4 and 5, the opening/closing mechanism 16 of the shutter 15 includes a solenoid 17, a slide piece 19 fixed to a cylinder 18 of the solenoid 17, and horizontally moved in the direction indicated by arrow A. The shutter 15 is pivoted at the tip of the control piece 20, and the shutter 15 is rotated vertically by the rotation of the control piece 20. It is moved along the plate 7 in the vertical direction indicated by the arrow B, so that the opening 6 is normally closed and the opening 6 is opened when the separating and sending unit 4 is taking in banknotes.

Then, the shutter 15 is connected to the take-in roller 1
A notch 15a is formed in the lower end facing the shutter 15 to engage the outer circumference of the take-in roller 10 when the shutter 15 closes the opening 6. Even if there is a slight gap in the banknote S, it can be made into an uneven shape.
It is possible to reliably prevent the tip from entering.

The operation of the banknote retrieving device 14 configured as described above will be explained with reference to FIGS. 6 to 8.

When banknotes S are loaded with the opening 6 of the banknote loading section 3 closed by the shutter 15, not only is the banknote S prevented from entering the opening 6 as shown in FIG. When the mechanism other than the mechanism 16 is in continuous rotation, the take-in roller 1
0 and the kicking roller 9 rotate as indicated by the arrows in FIG. All the banknotes S are pulled by the take-in roller 10 and hit against the shutter 15, and vibration is applied to all the banknotes S by the protrusion 8 of the kick-out roller 10, so that the leading edge of each banknote S touches the vertical plate 7 and the shutter 15. 15 and are aligned.

Next, when the shutter opening/closing mechanism 16 is operated to open the opening 6, the leading edges of the banknotes S are aligned, so the banknotes S are separated and sent out sequentially from the lowest banknote S as shown by the arrows in FIG. and taken into the aircraft body 1.

"Effects of the Invention" According to the bill taking device of the present invention, the opening of the bill loading section is normally closed by a shutter between the taking roller and the opening of the bill loading section is closed, and in the closed state, the outer periphery of the taking roller is shuttered. By engaging with the notch of the banknote, it is possible to restrict the generation of a linear gap and reliably prevent the tip of the banknote from entering the opening, and the kick-out roller can shatter the banknote near the bottom layer. The banknotes are kicked out towards the machine, the tip of the banknotes hits the shutter, and the banknotes are vibrated to align them before the opening is opened and the banknotes are taken into the machine. Since the banknotes can be taken in one by one starting from the lowest layer and feeding of two banknotes can be prevented, it is possible to prevent banknotes from jamming or being removed as defective banknotes.
