Banknote processing device

Abstract

The present invention provides a banknote handling device including a banknote storage mechanism for storing banknotes in a banknote storage unit, which is small in size, and the banknote storage unit is detachable. The banknote processing device includes: a stack guide (71) that separates the longitudinal side edges of the banknotes in the banknote storage (67) from the longitudinal side edges of the banknotes in the banknote conveyance path (2); (75a), (75b), which make the stacking guide (71) reciprocate along the direction approximately perpendicular to the banknote plane; the first connecting gear (77), which makes the lifting cam work; the carrying roller (52), whose shaft supported by the stack guide (71); the second link gear (53), which has the same axis (51) as the conveyance roller (52); and the pressing roller (56), which is supported by the stack guide (71) and The conveying rollers (52) are arranged facing each other, and the pressing roller (56) engages or separates from the conveying rollers (52) along with the reciprocating movement of the stack guide (71). The first and second connecting gears (77), (53) The drive from the drive source of the device main body is transmitted via the first and second transmission gears (14) and (43), respectively.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a small-sized banknote handling device equipped with a banknote storage mechanism mounted on equipment such as automatic vending machines, money changers, and unmanned parking lot machines, and more particularly relates to detachably attaching the banknote storage unit to the main body of the banknote handling device Technology. Background technique [0002] Usually, a banknote processing device is installed inside the main body of equipment such as automatic vending machines, money changers, and unmanned parking lot machines that process banknotes. Banknotes that are genuine. [0003] This banknote handling device is configured to include: a banknote conveyance path provided with a banknote conveyance mechanism for conveying banknotes fed from a banknote inlet to the inside of the device main body; An identification member; and a banknote storage unit provided with a banknote storage unit for stacking and storing ban...

Problems solved by technology

[0010] However, in the banknote processing device of Patent Document 2, the conveyance guide is provided on the device main body side, so the banknote cannot be taken out from the banknote storage while the stored banknote is held by the conveyance guide and the pressing plate. When collecting banknotes and replenishing change, it is necessary to press the banknotes on the spring-biased pressure plate with your fingers, and if your fingers leave the banknotes by mistake, the banknotes may be scattered due to the force of the spring.

[0011] In addition, since the banknote storage operation is carried out while the banknotes are held by the conveyance belt and the pressing roller provided in the banknote conveyance path, the banknotes may be shifted during the banknote storage, and storage errors may occur.

In order to reliably push the banknotes into the banknote storage even when the banknotes are misaligned during banknote storage, the maximum moving distance of the stack guide needs to have a margin, which hinders the miniaturization of the device.
