Description

Horizontal type banknote receiving machine Technical field The present utility model relates to the technical field of banknote receiving machines and, more specifically, to a horizontal type banknote receiving machine. Background of the technique Automated vending machines, such as automated transaction machines including ticket vending machines, payment machines, and currency exchange machines, are commonly found in many public places for convenience and speed. These automated transaction machines use a banknote receiving machine to accept banknotes used by customers. With reference to FIG. 1, a typical banknote receiving machine mainly comprises a vertical banknote receiving device 9 and a cash box 91. The cash box 91 is mounted on the rear side of the banknote receiving device 9. The banknote receiving device 9 includes a channel located behind it and connected to a banknote inlet 92. A conveying device and a recognition device are mounted in the channel.
