Description

Technology Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a simultaneous front and rear sealing device for a cash cassette, and more specifically, to a simultaneous front and rear sealing device for a cash cassette that can provide convenience by improving the quality of the sealing process and reducing the hassle during the sealing process by enabling the front door and the rear door of a cash cassette unit to be sealed simultaneously. Background Technology

[0002] Currency, banknotes, checks, and other sheet materials accepted and dispensed by the ATM are typically stored in a container or removable cassette while the documents are stored in the machine.

[0003] Typically, the above-mentioned currency, banknotes, checks, and other sheet materials are ejected from the cassette and provided to the ATM through an aperture or opening of the user interface located on the front or top of the ATM housing.

[0004] And, in some ATMs, money, banknotes, checks, and other sheet materials can be accepted for deposit through a user interface and then placed in a cassette, and the money, banknotes, or checks placed in the cassette are withdrawn or inserted according to the user's request, and when the cassette becomes full or empty of money, banknotes, or checks, replacement must be made.

[0005] Countries such as the Commonwealth of Independent States utilize a system where ATM cassettes are transported directly. To ensure the security of the currency, banknotes, and checks inside the cassettes during transport, the doors are sealed.

[0006] In addition to the front door, these cassettes are also provided with a rear door for jamming, and the same sealing process is required for the rear door as well.

[0007] However, in the case of conventional technology, for the front door, a wire-type sealing seal is attached to the hole shape provided, and for the rear door, sealing is performed by simply attaching a sealing label.

[0008] Therefore, there is a need for a technology that can improve the quality of the sealing process and reduce the hassle of the sealing process by ensuring that the rear door is sealed simultaneously with the front door during the sealing process. The problem to be solved

[0009] The objective of the present invention, devised in consideration of the above points, is to provide a simultaneous front and rear sealing device for a cash cassette unit that can seal the front door and the rear door of the cash cassette unit simultaneously, thereby improving the sealing quality and reducing the hassle of sealing, and providing convenience. means of solving the problem

[0010] A cash cassette front and rear simultaneous sealing device for achieving the objective of the present invention as described above comprises: a main body equipped with a receiving space capable of receiving cash; a front door hinged to the front of the main body so as to be openable and closable, with an opening formed through the boundary area with the main body; a rear door hinged to the rear of the main body so as to be openable and closable; and a handle rotatably installed on the rear door, with a hook bracket provided at one end and the other end of the inner side of the main body that engages with a locking projection provided on one side and the other side of the main body, respectively; a sealing lever exposed to the outside through the opening and rotatably coupled to the boundary area, having a sliding surface on the front of one side and a fixed surface on the rear; and a link member having one end in contact with the sealing lever, moving along the width direction of the main body by the rotation of the sealing lever, and having an inclined surface formed at the other end. It is characterized by including a stop shaft that contacts the link member and moves at regular intervals along the inclined surface in the longitudinal direction of the main body by the movement of the link member, and is equipped with a stud to restrain the rotation of the hook bracket, thereby simultaneously sealing the front door and the rear door.

[0011] Here, at one end of the link member that contacts one side of the sealing lever where the sliding surface and the fixed surface are formed, a support surface having an incline corresponding to the sliding surface is provided, and the sliding surface and the fixed surface are positioned at a mutually perpendicular position so that when the sealing lever is rotated 90°, the fixed surface contacts the support surface and the state in which the link member is moved is maintained.

[0012] In addition, a stopper bracket having an inclined surface corresponding to the inclined surface formed on the link member is fixed to one end of the stop shaft, so that when the link member moves, the stopper bracket moves along the longitudinal direction of the main body, thereby allowing the stop shaft to move.

[0013] In addition, the stopper bracket may be elastically supported by a separate tension spring so that when the stopper bracket returns to its original position by the tension spring, the link member may return to its original position.

[0014] In addition, a return spring that elastically supports the stop shaft can be installed on the outer surface of the stop shaft so that the stop shaft can return after movement.

[0015] Also, it is preferable that the distance between the above-mentioned catch projection and the above-mentioned stud be shorter than the distance at which the above-mentioned hook bracket detaches from the above-mentioned catch projection. Effects of the invention

[0016] As seen above, the simultaneous front and rear sealing device for a cash cassette according to the present invention has the effect of providing convenience by improving the quality of the sealing process and reducing the hassle during the sealing process, by enabling the simultaneous sealing of the front door and the rear door of the cash cassette unit.

[0018] Hereinafter, a simultaneous front and rear sealing device for a cash cassette according to one embodiment of the present invention will be described in more detail with reference to the attached drawings.

[0019] FIG. 1 is a perspective view illustrating a structure in which a front and rear simultaneous sealing device for a cash cassette according to an embodiment of the present invention is installed in a cash cassette; FIG. 2 is a plan view illustrating the structure of a front and rear simultaneous sealing device for a cash cassette according to an embodiment of the present invention; FIG. 3 is an operation diagram illustrating the operation of a front and rear simultaneous sealing device for a cash cassette according to an embodiment of the present invention; FIG. 4 is an operation diagram illustrating the operation of a sealing lever and a link member of a front and rear simultaneous sealing device for a cash cassette according to an embodiment of the present invention; and FIG. 5 is a state diagram illustrating a structure in which a rear door is sealed by a front and rear simultaneous sealing device for a cash cassette according to an embodiment of the present invention.

[0020] As illustrated in these drawings, a cash cassette front and rear simultaneous sealing device according to one embodiment of the present invention comprises: a main body (1) having a receiving space capable of receiving cash; a front door (2) hinge-coupled to the front of the main body (1) so as to be openable and closable, with an opening surface (2a) formed through the boundary area with the main body (1); a rear door (3) hinge-coupled to the rear of the main body (1) so as to be openable and closable; and a handle (4) rotatably installed on the rear door (3) and having a hook bracket (4a) that engages with a locking projection (1a) provided on one side and the other side of the main body (1), respectively, provided at one end and the other end of the inner side of the main body (1); and a sealing lever (100) that is exposed to the outside through the opening surface (2a), is rotatably coupled to the boundary area, has a sliding surface (110) on the front of one side, and has a fixed surface (120) on the rear side; The apparatus is configured to include: a link member (200) having one end in contact with the sealing lever (100) and moving along the width direction of the main body (1) by the rotation of the sealing lever (100), with an inclined surface (210) formed at the other end; and a stop shaft (300) having one end in contact with the link member (200) and moving at regular intervals along the inclined surface (210) in the length direction of the main body (1) by the movement of the link member (200), and having a stud (310) provided to restrain the rotation of the hook bracket (4a), thereby sealing the front door (2) and the rear door (3) simultaneously.

[0021] The sealing lever (100) is a member that allows the front door (2) to be sealed through rotation, and is rotatably installed in the boundary area between the main body (1) and the front door (2) so that a portion of it can be exposed to the outside through the opening (2a) formed in the front door (2).

[0022] This sealing lever (100) is provided with a sliding surface (110) on the front side and a fixed surface (120) on the rear side so as to allow the link member (200) to move along the width direction of the main body (1).

[0023] The sliding surface (110) and the fixed surface (120) are positioned perpendicular to each other so that when the sealing lever (100) is rotated 90°, the fixed surface (120) comes into contact with the support surface (220) and the state in which the link member (200) is moved is maintained.

[0024] In addition, a support surface (220) having an inclination corresponding to the sliding surface (110) is provided at one end of the link member (200) that contacts one side of the sealing lever (100) having a sliding surface (110) and a fixed surface (120), so that the link member (200) can be maintained in a moved state by the fixed surface (120) of the sealing lever (100).

[0025] The link member (200) is a member having one end in contact with the sealing lever (100) and moving along the width direction of the main body (1) by the rotation of the sealing lever (100), and having an inclined surface (210) formed at the other end, so that it can be moved in the length direction of the main body (1) of the stop shaft (300) by the movement of the sealing lever (100).

[0026] As described above, a support surface (220) is provided at one end of the link member (200), so that when the sealing lever (100) is rotated, the sliding surface (110) of the sealing lever (100) and the support surface (220) come into contact, causing sliding to occur and gradually move in the width direction of the main body (1).

[0027] And, when the sealing lever (100) is fully rotated, the fixed surface (120) of the sealing lever (100) comes into surface contact with the support surface (220), thereby allowing the link member (200) to maintain a state of moving in the width direction of the main body (1).

[0028] An inclined surface (210) is formed at the other end of the link member (200), and a stopper bracket (400), which is provided to come into contact with the inclined surface (210) as the link member (200) moves and has one side fixed to the stop shaft (300), slides along the inclined surface (210) and moves along the length direction of the main body (1), thereby causing the stop shaft (300) to move along the length direction of the main body (1).

[0029] To this end, a portion of the plate surface of the stopper bracket (400) has an inclined surface formed with a slope corresponding to the inclined surface (210), and as the inclined surface formed on the stopper bracket (400) and the inclined surface (210) formed on the link member (200) come into sliding contact with each other, the stop shaft (300) connected to the stopper bracket (400) moves.

[0030] In addition, the stopper bracket (400) can be elastically supported by a separate tension spring (410) so that when the stopper bracket (400) returns to its original position by the tension spring (410), the link member (200) can be returned.

[0031] As described above, the stop shaft (300) is a member that, at one end, contacts the link member (200) and moves at regular intervals along the inclined surface (210) along the length direction of the main body (1) by the movement of the link member (200), and is provided with studs (310) at each end to restrain the rotation of the hook bracket (4a), thereby enabling the front door (2) and the rear door (3) to be sealed simultaneously.

[0032] To this end, the stop shaft (300) is provided to be divided into two parts, a front shaft (301) and a rear shaft (302), and a hook bracket (4a) for sealing the front door (2) and the rear door (3) is fixedly provided at one end and the other end of the rear shaft (302), respectively, and a stud (310) is provided at the ends of the front shaft (301) and the rear shaft (302), respectively, so as to move along the longitudinal direction of the main body (1) and restrict the rotation of the hook bracket (4a), thereby sealing the front door (2) and the rear door (3).

[0033] A stopper bracket (400) having an inclined surface corresponding to the inclined surface (210) formed on the link member (200) is fixed to one end of the stop shaft (300), so that when the link member (200) moves, the stopper bracket (400) moves along the longitudinal direction of the main body (1), thereby allowing the stop shaft (300) to move.

[0034] One end of the stop shaft (300) is in contact with one side of the link member (200), and the other end is extended along the longitudinal direction of the main body (1) to a position where the hook bracket (4a) of the handle (4) installed on the rear door (3) is positioned.

[0035] Additionally, it is preferable that a return spring (320) that elastically supports the stop shaft (300) is installed on the outer surface of the stop shaft (300) so that the stop shaft (300) can return after movement.

[0036] In addition, the distance between the catch projection (1a) and the stud (310) provided at the end of the stop shaft (300) is formed to be shorter than the distance at which the hook bracket (4a) detaches from the catch projection (1a), thereby preventing the hook bracket (4a) from detaching from the catch projection (1a) when the stud (310) is protruding.

[0037] The process of simultaneously sealing the front and rear sides of a cash cassette by the cash cassette front and rear simultaneous sealing device according to the present invention having the configuration described above is explained as follows with reference to FIGS. 3 and 4.

[0038] First, as shown in Fig. 3(b), in order to simultaneously seal the front door (2) and the rear door (3) provided on the front and rear of the cache cassette, respectively, the sealing lever (100) exposed through the opening (2a) of the front door (2) is rotated to one side.

[0039] When the sealing lever (100) is rotated, the sealing lever (100) rotates and a portion of it protrudes outward from the front door (2), thereby shielding one side of the front door (2) from the outside from the front, and thus completing the sealing of the front door (2).

[0040] And, as shown in FIG. 4(b), when the sealing lever (100) rotates, the support surface (220) provided on one side of the link member (200) slides along the sliding surface (110) formed on one side of the sealing lever (100), and when the sealing lever (100) is fully rotated, the support surface (220) comes into contact with the fixed surface (120), and the link member (200) moves at a certain distance along the width direction of the main body (1).

[0041] When the link member (200) moves at a certain distance along the width direction of the main body (1), at the same time, the stopper bracket (400) moves along the length direction of the main body (1) along the inclined surface (210) of the link member (200), and the stop shaft (300) fixed to the stopper bracket (400) moves along the length direction of the main body (1).

[0042] When the stop shaft (300) moves along the longitudinal direction of the main body (1), as shown in Fig. 5 (b), the stud (310) provided at the end of the stop shaft (300) protrudes and supports one side of the lower portion of the hook bracket (4a) that is hooked on the catch projection (1a), thereby restraining the rotation of the hook bracket (4a) that is fixed to the handle (4) so ​​that the rear door (3) is sealed.

[0043] The process of releasing the sealing state of the front and rear of the cash cassette is performed in the reverse of the process described above. When the sealing lever (100) is rotated in the opposite direction to the sealing direction, the sealing of the front door (2) is released, and the stopper bracket (400) is restored to its original position by the tensioning force of the tension spring (410), thereby pushing the link member (200) and restoring the link member (200) to its original position.

[0044] At the same time, the stop shaft (300) is restored to its original position by the elasticity of the return spring (320) provided on the outer surface of the stop shaft (300), and the stud (310) at the end of the stop shaft (300) is drawn into the inside of the main body (1), thereby allowing the hook bracket (4a) that is hooked on the locking projection (1a) to be detached from the locking projection (1a) using the handle (4), so that the sealing of the rear door (3) can be released.

[0045] A simultaneous front and rear sealing device for a cash cassette according to one embodiment of the present invention, having the configuration described above, can simultaneously seal the front door and the rear door of a cash cassette unit, thereby improving the sealing quality and reducing the hassle during sealing, and thus providing convenience.

[0046] The foregoing merely describes some preferred embodiments that can be implemented by the present invention. As is well known, the scope of the present invention should not be interpreted as being limited to the above embodiments, and all technical concepts that share the fundamental principles with the technical concept of the present invention described above shall be considered to be included within the scope of the present invention.
