Description

[Detailed explanation of the idea] This invention relates to a stamping device for a paper sheet counting machine.

Conventionally, this stamping device has adopted a configuration in which the stamping body is projected through a predetermined transparent stone at the banding position O of the bundle of paper sheets to perform the stamping. The surface is now exposed.

Therefore, dust (for example, dust generated when counting bundles of paper sheets) tends to adhere to the stamping surface, resulting in inconveniences such as making the stamp unclear.

Moreover, the above-mentioned stamp body is provided with its stamp surface facing upward.

Therefore, if you leave it for a long time without stamping it and die,
There was a risk that the ink for stamping would no longer come out, and even if stamps were subsequently applied, clear stamp marks would not be left on the obi.

The purpose of this invention is to provide a stamping device for a paper sheet counting machine that prevents dust etc. from adhering to the stamping surface of the stamping body, prevents ink from disappearing from the stamping surface, and eliminates the above-mentioned disadvantages. .

An embodiment in which this invention is applied to a stamping device for a banknote counting machine will be described below.

FIG. 1 shows the main parts of a paper sheet counting machine equipped with a stamping device 3 according to an embodiment, and FIG. 2 shows the stamping device 3.
This shows the main parts of

1 and 2, this banknote counting machine is equipped with a well-known rotary cylinder unit 1 and a banknote bundle holding device 2, and the banknote bundle A placed here is transferred by the holding device 2 to the aforementioned rotary cylinder unit. After that, the rotary cylinder unit 1 sequentially attracts and turns over the banknotes in the banknote bundle A one by one.

That is, the above-mentioned rotating cylinder unit 1 rotates multiple times while the plurality of suction shafts 5 arranged annularly in the rotating cylinder 4 revolve once while performing a suction action by a vacuum pump (not shown). It is done like this.

Further, in the holding device 2, when the banknote bundle A is placed on the holder 6, the holder 6 is moved by a drive device (not shown) to a support shaft (
(not shown) from the position indicated by the two-dot chain line in FIG. The holder 6 is configured to make contact and count, and a through hole 8 is bored in the bottom of the holder 6 where the banding part B of the banknote bundle A is located.

Further, an arm piece 9 is attached to the support shaft, and this arm piece 9
A presser rod 10 is provided at the tip.

Furthermore, this banknote counting machine is equipped with the stamping device 3 according to this embodiment, and when the operation mode is set to the stamping mode, if there is no abnormality after checking the number of bills, etc., the banding B of the banknote bundle A is stamped. It is becoming more and more popular.

Furthermore, when this stamping mode is not executed,
The stamping surface of a stamping body 17 (described later) of the stamping device 3 is oriented in a direction where dust and the like will not adhere to prevent the stamping from becoming unnecessarily unclear.

That is, the stamp device 3 prints the stamp body 1 as described in detail below.
7, an operating member 13, a solenoid plunger 18, a stamp body holding device 11, etc., and the stamp body holding device 11 further includes an L-shaped movable piece 12, a fixed plate 15. It is composed of screws 13a+13b, etc.

This movable piece 12 extends from plate pieces 12a and 12b, and an operating lever 12e is integrally formed at one end of this plate piece 12a, and the other end of this plate piece 12a extends in the shape of an arm. A cylindrical portion 12c is integrally formed at the extreme end.

A locking portion 12d (FIG. 2) is formed at the lower end of this cylindrical portion 12c.

In this way, the cylindrical portion 12c holds the aforementioned actuating member 13 and the stamp body 17 fitted thereon in a reciprocating manner,
Further, the locking portion 12d prevents the actuating member 13 from falling.

The protruding portion 13b of the actuating member 13 protrudes from the lower end of the cylindrical portion 12c.

On the other hand, the other plate piece 12b of the movable piece 12 is attached so as to overlap a fixed plate 15 fixedly attached to an operation surface (not shown) of the bill counter main body.

That is, the screws 13a and 13b are inserted into the linear guide holes 15a of the fixed plate 15 and then attached to the plate piece 12b.

Due to such attachment, the cylindrical portion 12c of the movable piece 12 is located just below the through hole 8 of the holder 6 described above.

The solenoid plunger 18 operates in response to a stamp signal, and is provided so that its push-up plate 20 is located below the protrusion 13b of the actuating member 13 arranged as described above.

In this way, when a stamping signal is generated, the push-up plate 20 pushes up the protrusion 13b of the actuating member 13, and the stamping body 17 stamps the band B on the banknote bundle through the through hole 8 of the holder 6. -ing

As mentioned above, the screws 13a and 13b are attached to the plate piece 12b of the movable piece 12, but in this installation, the heads of the screws 13a and 13b and the plate piece 12b firmly clamp the fixed plate 15. Not yet.

Therefore, when the operating knob 12e is pulled forward (in FIG. 1), the screws 13a and 13b are guided to the elongated hole 15a, the movable piece 12 moves as shown by arrow 2, and the cylindrical portion 12
c retreats from the position above the push-up plate 20 of the plunger 18.

Eventually, when the operating arm 12e is pulled all the way, the screw 13a reaches the position where the elongated holes 15a and 15b are joined, and is now guided into the arc-shaped elongated hole 15b.

As a result, the movable piece 12 rotates around the screw 13b from the retracted position as described above and moves to position 1 as shown in FIG. 3.

Next, the operation of a banknote counting machine equipped with such a stamping device 3 will be explained.

First, the case where the stamping mode is executed will be explained.

In this case, the stamp holding device 11 may be placed in the state shown in FIG.
A re-account completed stamp, etc.) is dropped into the stamp body holder 16 of the operating member 13 and attached thereto.

Next, when the banknote bundle A is placed on the holder 6 of the holding device 2 (in manual operation, press the starting pushbutton (not shown)), the holder 6 rotates toward the rotary barrel unit 1 and presses the presser rod. 10, and the banknote bundle A is brought into contact with the suction shaft 5 of the rotary tube unit 1.

When the banknote bundle A comes into contact with the suction shaft 5 in this way, the vacuum pressure inside the suction shaft increases, the vacuum switch is turned on, and the motor around the suction shaft starts rotating.

In this way, when each suction shaft 5 starts to revolve while rotating forcefully, the suction shaft that contacts the banknote bundle sequentially suctions the banknotes one by one while turning over and counting the banknotes.

Then, when the counting of the banknote bundle A is completed and the predetermined set number matches the counted number (this is done by a comparison circuit not shown), the solenoid plunger 18 is energized and the push-up plate 20 is pushed up. , whereby the actuating member 13 rises and the stamping body 17 attached to the actuating member 13
is pushed up through the through hole 8 of the holder 6, and the banknote bundle A
A stamp is placed on the band seal B.

After the marking is completed in this manner, the excitation of the solenoid plunger 18 is released, the push-up plate 20 returns downward, and the marking body 17 is lowered together with the actuating member 13 to return to the initial state. to return to.

Thereafter, the holder 6 of the banknote bundle holding device 2 moves from the position on the rotary cylinder unit 1 side (indicated by a solid line or broken line in FIG. 1) to position 1 shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG. The clamping is released, and the person in charge takes out this banknote bundle A.

Note that, as described above, if the counted number of banknotes A does not match the preset set number when counting of the banknote bundle A is completed, the solenoid plunger 18 is not energized, and therefore the stamping operation is not performed.

In this case, a reset button (not shown) is pressed to release the clamping of the banknote bundle A by the holder 6, and the banknote bundle A is taken out from the holding device 2.

Next, a case will be described in which the operation mode is switched to a mode other than the stamping mode and stamping is not required.

In FIG. 1, in this case, before starting counting, the operating handle 12e of the stamp holding device 11 is operated to move the stamp 17 located below the translucent [8] of the holder 6. ,
It is evacuated to the position shown in Fig. 3.

That is, when the operating knob 12e is pulled toward you (in FIG. Retract from the position above the push-up plate 20.

Eventually, with the operating lever 12e pulled all the way, the screw 13a reaches a position where the long holes 15a and 15b are joined, and is now guided into the arc-shaped long hole 15b.

As a result, the movable piece 12 rotates around the screw 13b from the retracted position as described above and moves to position 1 as shown in FIG. 3.

Therefore, when counting the banknote bundle A later, the holder 6
Even if dirt, etc. falls through the stamped body 1
7 itself has retreated from the position below this through hole 8, and in addition, since the imprint surface of the imprint body 17 is oriented in the horizontal direction and not toward the aforementioned through hole 8, the aforementioned dust etc. adhere to the imprint body 17. There's nothing to do.

After that, when the banknote bundle A is placed on the holder 6 of the terminal banknote bundle holding device 2 (in manual operation, the above-mentioned start push button is pressed), the holder 6 rotates toward the rotary tube unit 1 side and the presser lever A banknote bundle A is held between the banknote bank 10 and the banknote bank A, and the banknote bundle A is further brought into contact with the suction shaft of a rotary tube unit 1, and the banknote bundle A is turned over and counted by the rotary tube unit 1.

This counting is almost the same as in the above-mentioned stamping mode, so the explanation will not be repeated.

As described above with respect to one embodiment, according to this invention, in a stamping device for a paper sheet counting machine that reciprocates a stamping body and stamps the banding of a bundle of paper sheets with the stamping body, the stamping device is provided. A stamp body holding device is provided that can hold the body and change the angle of the stamp body with respect to the stamping direction, and the stamp body holding device prevents the stamping surface of the stamp body from facing the stamping direction when stamping is not performed. Therefore, it is possible to prevent dust and the like from adhering to the stamping surface of the stamping body, and it is also possible to prevent the stamping ink from running out.

However, this invention is not limited to the above-mentioned embodiment. For example, when changing the angle of the stamp body with respect to the stamping direction, in this embodiment, the surface along the fixed plate 15 is adopted as the rotating surface of the stamp body. However, it goes without saying that other surfaces may be used as surfaces of rotation.
