Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of banknote binding, and more particularly to a pressure relief mechanism and a banknote binding machine. Background Art

[0002] The existing banknote bundle binding machine consists of a platform, a clamping mechanism (including a pneumatic cylinder and a clamping element mounted below the cylinder), and a banknote pushing mechanism. The pushing mechanism is located above the platform and behind the clamping mechanism. The paper tape and banknote bundle are placed on the platform, with the banknote bundle pressed against the center of the paper tape, with the first and second extensions of the paper tape located on the left and right sides of the bundle. The pneumatic cylinder drives the clamping element downward, pressing the banknote bundle against the platform. The paper tape is then bound to the bundle, with the first and second extensions connected at the top of the bundle, and the paper tape is suspended on the clamping element. The clamping mechanism then moves upward to lift the bundle (this is the conventional pressure relief method in the art), and the banknote pushing mechanism pushes the bundle forward and downward.

[0003] The cylinder drives the pressing part to move upward at a fast speed, and the pressing part applies a large upward pulling force to the paper tape, which may cause problems such as pulling apart the connected first and second extension ends and breaking the paper tape. The use effect of this banknote bundling machine is not good. Summary of the Invention

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0044] To make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clearly understood, the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be noted that, unless there is a conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other in any manner.

[0045] Example 1

[0046] The pressure relief mechanism 200 provided in the embodiment of the present invention is as follows: Figure 21 As shown, it includes: a first frame plate 210; a second driving member 220, installed on the first frame plate 210; a limiting plate 230, located above the first frame plate 210 and installed on the second driving member 220; a guide rail column 240, which can be movably installed on the first frame plate 210 and the limiting plate 230 up and down; a supporting plate 250, located above the limiting plate 230 and fixed to the upper end of the guide rail column 240; and a first elastic member 260, supported between the limiting plate 230 and the supporting plate 250.

[0047] The pressure relief mechanism 200 has a simple structure and can be applied to a banknote bundling machine to solve problems such as the first and second protruding ends being pulled apart and the paper tape being broken. The resulting banknote bundling machine has a better performance.

[0048] For example, Figure 21 As shown, the limiting plate 230 is provided with a matching long hole 251, which is arranged along the front-to-back direction of the holding plate 250. There are two matching long holes 251, which are spaced apart in the left-right direction of the holding plate 250. Of course, there can be one, three, etc. matching long holes 251, which can also achieve the purpose of this application. The purpose does not deviate from the design concept of the present invention and will not be repeated here. It should also fall within the scope of protection of this application.

[0049] For example, Figure 21 As shown, there are two guide rail posts 240, which are spaced apart in the front-to-rear direction of the support plate 250. Of course, there can also be one, three, etc. guide rail posts 240, and the purpose of this application can still be achieved. The purpose does not deviate from the design concept of the present invention and will not be repeated here. It should also fall within the scope of protection of this application.

[0050] like Figure 21 As shown, a top column 231 is provided on the top surface of the limiting plate 230, and the top column 231 is located below the supporting plate 250, for better ensuring that the supporting plate 250 stops at the second position, that is, when the supporting plate 250 moves down from the first position to the second position, it presses downward on the top column 231.

[0051] Among them, such as Figure 21 As shown, there are two top posts 231, which are spaced apart in the front-to-back direction of the supporting plate 250. Of course, there can also be one, three, etc. top posts 231, which can also achieve the purpose of this application. Such purpose does not deviate from the design concept of the present invention and will not be repeated here. It should also fall within the scope of protection of this application.

[0052] For example, Figure 21 As shown, the second driving member 220 is a cylinder, the first elastic member 260 is a coil spring, and the upper surface of the supporting plate 250 is a concave surface.

[0053] Example 2

[0054] The banknote bundling machine provided by the embodiment of the present invention is as follows: Figures 1 to 8As shown, it includes a pressing mechanism 100, a pressure relief mechanism 200, a paper tape pre-pressing mechanism 300 and a heat-sealing mechanism 400. The pressure relief mechanism 200 is located below the pressing mechanism 100, the paper tape pre-pressing mechanism 300 is located on one side of the pressure relief mechanism 200, and the heat-sealing mechanism 400 is located on the other side of the pressure relief mechanism 200. The pressing mechanism 100 presses the banknote handle 10 placed on the pressure relief mechanism 200 by moving downward, and the middle part of the paper tape 20 is pressed between the banknote handle 10 and the pressure relief mechanism 200. The first protruding end 21 is located on one side of the pressure relief mechanism 200, and the second protruding end 22 is located on the other side of the pressure relief mechanism 200; the paper tape pre-pressing mechanism 300 is used to fold the first protruding end 21 and press it on the top surface of the banknote handle 10; the heat sealing mechanism 400 is used to fold the second protruding end 22 and heat-seal it to the first protruding end 21 to complete the bundling of the banknote handle 10; the pressure relief mechanism 200 removes the pressure on the bundled banknote handle 10 by moving downward, so that the bundled banknote handle 10 can be removed.

[0055] In the banknote binding machine, the paper tape 20 is first placed on the pressure relief mechanism 200, with the first protruding end 21 of the paper tape 20 located on one side of the pressure relief mechanism 200 and the second protruding end 22 located on the other side of the pressure relief mechanism 200. Then the banknote handle 10 is placed on the pressure relief mechanism 200 and the paper tape 20 is pressed. Then the pressing mechanism 100 moves down to press the banknote handle 10 on the pressure relief mechanism 200. The paper tape pre-pressing mechanism 300 then folds the first protruding end 21 and presses it on the top surface of the banknote handle 10. The heat-sealing mechanism 400 folds the second protruding end 22 and heat-seals it to the first protruding end 21 to complete the bundling of the banknotes 10. This method has a good bundling effect on the banknotes 10. When the bundled banknotes 10 need to be removed, the pressure-relieving mechanism 200 moves downward to relieve the pressure on the bundled banknotes 10 and release the banknotes 10. At this time, the bundled banknotes 10 can be removed between the pressing mechanism 100 and the pressure-relieving mechanism 200, and the user experience of the manufactured banknote bundling machine is better.

[0056] For example, Figure 9 As shown, the banknote bundle bundling machine further includes: a pushing mechanism 500, located at the rear side of the pressure relief mechanism 200, for pushing the bundled banknote bundles 10 after pressure relief to move forward, so as to automatically remove the bundled banknote bundles 10, which can further enhance the user experience.

[0057] like Figure 2As shown, the clamping mechanism 100 includes: a first driving member 110; a mounting plate 120, located below the first driving member 110 and mounted on the first driving member 110; and a front-to-rear arrangement of holding blocks 130, protruding from the lower plate surface of the mounting plate 120. The clamping mechanism 100 also includes a fourth frame plate 140, a guide rod 150, and a connecting member 160. The first driving member 110 is fixed to the fourth frame plate 140, the guide rod 150 is movably mounted on the fourth frame plate 140, the connecting member 160 is fixed to the lower end of the first driving member 110 and the lower end of the guide rod 150, the mounting plate 120 is located below the connecting member 160, and the middle portion of the mounting plate 120 and the middle portion of the connecting member 160 are connected by a vertical connecting column. The first driving member 110 can be configured as a cylinder.

[0058] like Figure 3 As shown, the pressure relief mechanism 200 includes: a first frame plate 210; a second driving member 220 mounted on the first frame plate 210; a limiting plate 230 located above the first frame plate 210 and mounted on the second driving member 220; a guide post 240 movably mounted on the first frame plate 210 and the limiting plate 230; a supporting plate 250 located above the limiting plate 230 and fixed to the upper end of the guide post 240, the upper surface of the supporting plate 250 being a concave surface on which the paper tape 20 and the banknote handle 10 are located; and a first elastic member 260 mounted on the guide post 240 and supported between the limiting plate 230 and the supporting plate 250. The second driving member 220 can be configured as a cylinder, and the first elastic member 260 can be configured as a coil spring. A top post 231 is provided on the top surface of the limiting plate 230.

[0059] Among them, the first driving member 110 drives the mounting plate 120 and the holding block 130 to move downward together, so that the supporting plate 250 is pressed down from the first position to the second position, and the lower surface of the supporting plate 250 is pressed on the top column 231. At this time, the holding block 130 presses the banknote handle 10 on the concave surface, and the middle part of the banknote handle 10 and the middle part of the paper tape 20 are both bent downward along the concave surface. Both sides of the banknote handle 10, the first protruding end 21 and the second protruding end 22 are both tilted upward along the concave surface, so that the paper tape pre-pressing mechanism 300 can more smoothly fold the first protruding end 21 and press it on the upper plate surface of the mounting plate 120, and the heat sealing mechanism 400 can also more smoothly fold the second protruding end 22 and heat-seal it on the first protruding end 21. The first protruding end 21 and the second protruding end 22 are heat-sealed on the upper plate surface of the mounting plate 120 to prevent the heat sealing mechanism 400 from scalding the top layer of banknotes of the banknote handle 10. Furthermore, because the banknote handle 10 is bound in a bent state, the paper tape 20 can more tightly bind the banknote handle 10. The second driving member 220 drives the limit plate 230 downward to relieve the pressure, and the supporting plate 250 moves downward from the second position to the third position. The banknote handle 10 is released between the supporting plate 250 and the mounting plate 120 and suspended at the front end of the mounting plate 120 by the heat-sealed paper tape 20.

[0060] like Figure 3 and Figure 9 As shown, the pushing mechanism 500 includes: a third driving member 510; and a pushing member 520, which is installed on the third driving member 510. A push rod 530 is vertically provided on the pushing member 520, and a matching long hole 251 is provided on the supporting plate 250.

[0061] When the supporting plate 250 is in the first position, the push rod 530 is located below the matching elongated hole 251; when the supporting plate 250 moves down to the second position, the push rod 530 extends upward through the matching elongated hole 251; when the supporting plate 250 moves down to the third position, the banknote handle 10 is relieved of pressure and is in a releasable state. The third driving member 510 pushes the pushing member 520 forward, and the push rod 530 pushes the banknote handle 10 forward, pushing the banknote handle 10 forward between the mounting plate 120 and the supporting plate 250. This pressure relief process does not involve lifting the paper tape 20, thus avoiding problems such as the first and second extension ends 21, 22 being pulled apart and the paper tape 20 being broken. The resulting banknote handle binding machine has a better performance.

[0062] like Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, the paper tape pre-pressing mechanism 300 includes: a second frame 310; a fourth driving member 320 mounted on the second frame 310; and a top pressing member 330 mounted on the fourth driving member 320. The fourth driving member 320 drives the top pressing member 330 to move downwardly and obliquely toward the top surface of the banknote handle 10, thereby folding the first protruding end 21 of the paper tape 20 and pressing it against the top surface of the banknote handle 10. The fourth driving member 320 can be configured as a pneumatic cylinder.

[0063] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the paper tape pre-pressing mechanism 300 may further include: a side pressing member 340, located below the top pressing member 330 and hingedly mounted at its lower end on the second frame 310; a rope 350, one end of which is connected to the top pressing member 330 and the other end is connected to the side pressing member 340; and a second elastic member 360, which is arranged between the side pressing member 340 and the second frame 310 and below the rope 350, and is used to tighten the rope 350 between the top pressing member 330 and the side pressing member 340. At this point, the fourth drive member 320 drives the top holding member 330 to move downwardly and obliquely toward the top surface of the banknote handle 10. The rope 350 is released, and the top of the side holding member 340, under the action of the second elastic member 360, swings toward the side of the banknote handle 10, pressing a portion of the first protruding end 21 against a side surface of the banknote handle 10, flattening the paper tape 20 on the side surface of the banknote handle 10. The top holding member 330 then folds over another portion of the first protruding end 21 and presses it against the upper surface of the mounting plate 120. After heat-sealing, the paper tape 20 binds the banknote handle 10 more tightly. To eliminate interference from the support plate 250 with the pressing action of the side holding member 340, a notch 252 is provided on the side of the support plate 250 facing the side holding member 340 for the side holding member 340 to pass through. The second elastic member 360 can be configured as a torsion spring.

[0064] like Figures 6 to 8 As shown, the heat sealing mechanism 400 includes a third frame 410, a fifth drive member 420, a connecting rod 430, and a heat sealing knife 440. The fifth drive member 420 and the connecting rod 430 are both hingedly mounted on the third frame 410 to form a four-link 430. The heat sealing knife 440 is mounted on the four-link 430. The fifth drive member 420 can be configured as a cylinder. When the fifth drive member 420 extends, the four-link 430 drives the heat sealing knife 440 to move in a curved direction toward the top surface of the banknote handle 10, pushing the second protruding end 22 downward to heat-seal the second protruding end 22 to the first protruding end 21. After the heat sealing is completed, the fifth drive member 420 retracts, and the four-link 430 drives the heat sealing knife 440 to return to its original position. The heat sealing knife 440 has a heat sealing working surface 441 at its lower portion.

[0065] The process of using this banknote bundling machine is as follows:

[0066] The paper tape 20 is first placed on the supporting plate 250, with the first protruding end 21 of the paper tape 20 located on one side of the supporting plate 250 and the second protruding end 22 located on the other side. The banknote handle 10 is then placed on the supporting plate 250, pressing against the center of the paper tape 20. The first driving member 110 drives the mounting plate 120 and the pressing block 130 to move downward, causing the supporting plate 250 to move downward from the first position to the second position. The pressing block 130 presses the banknote handle 10 against the concave surface. At this point, the push rod 530 extends upward through the mating elongated hole 251. The center of the banknote handle 10 and the center of the paper tape 20 both bend downward along the concave surface, and the sides of the banknote handle 10, the first protruding end 21, and the second protruding end 22, all rise upward along the concave surface. The fourth driving member 320 drives the top pressing member 330 to move obliquely downward toward the top surface of the banknote handle 10. The rope 350 is released, and the top of the side pressing member 340, under the action of the second elastic member 360, swings toward the side of the banknote handle 10, preferentially pressing a portion of the first extension end 21 against one side of the banknote handle 10. The paper tape 20 is flattened on this side of the banknote handle 10. The top pressing member 330 then folds over another portion of the first extension end 21 and presses it against the upper surface of the mounting plate 120. The fifth driving member 420 extends, and the four-link 430 drives the heat sealing blade 440 to move in a curved motion toward the top surface of the banknote handle 10, pushing the second extension end 22 to fold downward, thereby heat-sealing the second extension end 22 to the first extension end 21. After heat sealing is complete, the fifth actuator 420 retracts, and the four-link 430 drives the heat seal blade 440 to reset. The fourth actuator 320 retracts, the top and side pressure members 330 and 340 reset, and the rope 350 is tightened again. The second actuator 220 drives the limit plate 230 downward to relieve pressure, and the support plate 250 moves downward from the second position to the third position. The banknote handle 10 is released between the support plate 250 and the mounting plate 120 and suspended on the mounting plate 120 by the heat-sealed paper strip 20. The third actuator 510 pushes the push member 520 forward, and the push rod 530 pushes the banknote handle 10 forward, pushing it out from between the mounting plate 120 and the support plate 250. After the banknote handle 10 is pushed out, the third actuator 510 drives the push member 520 and the push rod 530 to reset, and the first actuator 110 drives the mounting plate 120 and the pressure block 130 to reset.

[0067] Example 3

[0068] The difference between this embodiment and the first embodiment is that: Figures 10 to 19 As shown, the banknote bundle binding machine also includes: a paper tape supply mechanism 600, which is arranged above one side of the pressure relief mechanism 200, and is used to automatically supply a paper tape 20 of a set length to the pressure relief mechanism 200; and a banknote bundle supply mechanism, which is arranged at the rear side of the pressure relief mechanism 200, and is used to supply the banknote bundle 10 to the pressure relief mechanism 200.

[0069] like Figure 20As shown, the paper tape supply mechanism 600 includes a paper tape supply assembly 610, a code printing assembly 620, and a vertical cutting assembly 630. The paper tape supply assembly 610 is used to supply paper tape 20 from a paper tape roll, the code printing assembly 620 is used to print binding information on the supplied paper tape 20, and the cutting assembly 630 is used to cut off a set length of paper tape 20. The binding information is printed on each set length of paper tape 20.

[0070] like Figures 10 to 12 As shown, the banknote bundle supply mechanism includes a banknote bundle holding compartment 700, a banknote support assembly 800, and a banknote pusher assembly 900. The banknote bundle bundling machine also includes a banknote straightening assembly 1000. The banknote straightening assembly 1000 is located above and on the other side of the pressure relief mechanism 200. That is, the banknote straightening assembly 1000 and the paper tape supply mechanism 600 are located on either side of the pressure relief mechanism 200. The banknote support assembly 800 is located below the banknote bundle holding compartment 700, the pusher mechanism 500 is located below the banknote support assembly 800, and the pusher assembly 900 is located behind the banknote bundle holding compartment 700. The banknote support assembly 800 can be moved forward to a fourth position and rearward to a fifth position. The fourth position is above the support plate 250. The banknote bundle holding compartment 700 is used to hold banknote bundles 10, and the banknote straightening assembly 1000 is used to straighten the banknote bundles 10 on the banknote support assembly 800 in the fourth position.

[0071] When the banknote holding assembly 800 moves forward to the fourth position, the banknote pushing assembly 900 pushes the banknote handle 10 forward, causing the banknote handle 10 to fall forward onto the banknote holding assembly 800; then, the banknote straightening assembly 1000 straightens the banknote handle 10 on the banknote holding assembly 800, and after the straightening is completed, the banknote straightening assembly 1000 resets (during the straightening process, the paper tape supply mechanism 600 extends the end of the paper tape roll into the gap between the banknote holding assembly 800 and the supporting plate 250, and cuts the set length through the cutting assembly 630, so that the cut paper tape 20 of the set length falls onto the supporting plate 250); then, the banknote holding assembly 800 moves backward to the fifth position, and the banknote handle 10 on the banknote holding assembly 800 is blocked by the banknote pushing assembly 900 and falls onto the supporting plate 250, and is pressed on the middle part of the paper tape 20 of the set length.

[0072] like Figure 13 and Figure 14As shown, the banknote pushing assembly 900 includes: a fifth frame plate 910, having a front vertical plate 911, a rear vertical plate 912 and a connecting side plate; an eighth driving member 920, fixed to the rear vertical plate 912; a lead screw 930, rotatably mounted between the front vertical plate 911 and the rear vertical plate 912, and coupled with the eighth driving member 920 via a pulley structure; a nut block 940, mounted on the lead screw 930; a second guide rod 950, arranged parallel to the lead screw 930, with the front end of the second guide rod 950 passing through the front vertical plate 911 extends forward and the rear end is fixed on the nut block 940; and the push plate 960 is fixed on the front end of the second guide rod 950, and the lower end of the push plate 960 protrudes forward with a tongue 30, and a long groove 40 is arranged along the front-to-back direction on the bottom surface of the banknote handle holding chamber 700, and the tongue 30 sinks downward into the long groove 40. The tongue 30 is located below the banknote handle 10 in the banknote handle holding chamber 700, ensuring that the bottom layer of banknotes is missed during the process of the push plate 960 pushing the banknote handle 10. The eighth driving member 920 can be configured as a motor.

[0073] like Figure 15 and Figure 16 As shown, the banknote support assembly 800 includes a seventh driving member 810 and a banknote support plate 820 mounted on the seventh driving member 810. The seventh driving member 810 is used to drive the banknote support plate 820 forward to the fourth position and backward to the fifth position. A guide post 830 is provided on one side of the banknote support mechanism 800. The banknote support plate 820 cooperates with the guide post 830 to guide the banknote support plate 820 forward and backward during its movement.

[0074] like Figures 17 to 19 As shown, the banknote sorting assembly 1000 includes a sixth driving member 1100 and a banknote sorting plate 1200 hingedly mounted on the sixth driving member 1100. A third elastic member 1300 is disposed between the banknote sorting plate 1200 and the sixth driving member 1100. A mounting plate 2000 is disposed on the other side of the pressure relief mechanism 200. The sixth driving member 1100 pushes the banknote sorting plate 1200 toward the mounting plate 2000. The banknote handle 10 on the banknote support assembly 800 is sorted by the banknote sorting plate 1200 and the mounting plate 2000. This structure is suitable for banknotes of varying widths. A second tongue 31 is disposed at the lower end of the banknote sorting plate 1200, and a second elongated slot 41 is disposed at the end of the banknote support plate 820. This ensures that the bottommost banknote is not missed during the sorting process. The third elastic member 1300 can be configured as a torsion spring.

[0075] The pushing mechanism 500 is located at the rear and lower side of the supporting plate 250, successfully avoiding the space occupied by the paper tape supply mechanism 600, and also reducing the downward travel of the limit plate. In this way, the operating travel of the second driving member is reduced, not only the cost of the manufactured pressure relief mechanism is lower, but also the height of the manufactured banknote bundling machine is smaller.

[0076] The operation process of the paper tape supply mechanism 600 and the banknote supply mechanism is as follows:

[0077] The banknote holder 700 contains banknotes 10. The seventh driver 810 drives the banknote support plate 820 forward to the fourth position. The eighth driver 920 drives the push plate 960 forward, pushing the banknotes 10 in the banknote holder 700 onto the banknote support plate 820. The sixth driver 1100 drives the banknote straightening plate 1200 toward the mounting plate 2000. The second tongue 31 sinks into the second slot 41, pressing the banknotes 10 on the banknote support plate 820 against the side of the mounting plate 2000 to straighten the banknotes. The paper tape supply mechanism 600 supplies a set length of paper tape 20 to the holding plate 250 through the gap between the paper tape support plate 820 and the holding plate 250. After the straightening operation is completed, the sixth driver 1100 drives the banknote straightening plate 1200 back to its original position. The seventh driving member 810 drives the banknote supporting plate 820 to move back to the fifth position. The banknote handle 10 on the banknote supporting plate 820 is blocked by the push plate 960 and falls onto the supporting plate 250. At this time, the middle part of the paper tape 20 is pressed between the banknote handle 10 and the supporting plate 250, and then the eighth driving member 920 drives the push plate 960 to reset.

[0078] Example 4

[0079] The control method of the banknote bundling machine provided in an embodiment of the present invention (not shown in the figure) includes:

[0080] Place the paper tape 20 and the banknote handle 10 on the pressure relief mechanism 200, with the first protruding end 21 located on one side of the pressure relief mechanism 200 and the second protruding end 22 located on the other side of the pressure relief mechanism 200, and hold the banknote handle 10 against the middle of the paper tape 20;

[0081] The pressing mechanism 100 is driven to move downward, so that the pressing mechanism 100 presses and holds the banknote handle 10 placed on the pressure relief mechanism 200;

[0082] The paper tape pre-pressing mechanism 300 is driven to fold the first protruding end 21 and press it against the top surface of the banknote handle 10;

[0083] The heat-sealing mechanism 400 is driven to fold the second protruding end 22 and heat-seal it to the first protruding end 21, thereby completing the binding of the banknote bundle 10;

[0084] The pressure relief mechanism 200 is driven downward to relieve the pressure on the bundled banknote bundle 10 so that the bundled banknote bundle 10 can be removed (see Figure 1 to understand).

[0085] The control method of the banknote bundling machine has a good bundling effect of the banknote bundles 10, and can enhance the user's experience of using the banknote bundle bundling machine.

[0086] For example, the step of driving the pressing mechanism 100 to move downward so that the pressing mechanism 100 presses the banknote handle 10 placed on the pressure relief mechanism 200 includes: driving the mounting plate 120 and the pressing block 130 to move downward by the first driving member 110, so that the pressing block 130 presses the banknote handle 10 on the concave surface of the holding plate 250, and pressing the holding plate 250 from the first position to the second position, the middle portion of the banknote handle 10 and the middle portion of the paper tape 20 are bent downward along the concave surface, and both sides of the banknote handle 10, the first protruding end 21 and the second protruding end 22 are tilted upward along the concave surface (see Figures 1 to 3 to understand).

[0087] In this way, the paper tape pre-pressing mechanism 300 can more smoothly fold the first protruding end 21 and press it against the top surface of the banknote handle 10, and the heat-sealing mechanism 400 can more smoothly fold the second protruding end 22 and heat-seal it to the first protruding end 21. Moreover, since the banknote handle 10 is tied in a bent state, the paper tape 20 can bind the banknote handle 10 more tightly.

[0088] For example, the step of driving the paper tape pre-pressing mechanism 300 to fold the first protruding end 21 and press it on the top surface of the banknote handle 10 includes: driving the top pressing member 330 to move obliquely downward toward the top surface of the banknote handle 10 by the fourth driving member 320, the rope 350 is released, and the side pressing member 340 is swung toward the side of the banknote handle 10 under the action of the second elastic member 360, and a part of the first protruding end 21 is preferentially pressed and adhered to one side surface of the banknote handle 10, the paper tape 20 on the side is flattened, and the top pressing member 330 folds the other part of the first protruding end 21 with a delay and presses it on the upper plate surface of the mounting plate 120, and the first protruding end 21 and the second protruding end 22 are heat-sealed and bonded on the upper plate surface of the mounting plate 120, which can prevent the heat-sealing mechanism 400 from scalding the banknotes on the top layer of the banknote handle 10 (see Figure 1 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5 to understand).

[0089] For example, the step of driving the heat-sealing mechanism 400 to fold the second extension end 22 and heat-seal it to the first extension end 21 to complete the process of bundling the banknote handle 10 includes: driving the fifth driving member 420, controlling the heat-sealing knife 440 to move in a curve toward the top surface of the banknote handle 10 through the four-link 430, folding the second extension end 22 and pressing it on the upper surface of the mounting plate 120, and heat-sealing it to the first extension end 21 on the upper surface of the mounting plate 120. During heat-sealing, the lower side of the second extension end 22 is bonded to the upper side of the first extension end 21 (see Figure 1 、 Figures 6 to 8 to understand).

[0090] For example, the step of driving the pressure relief mechanism 200 downward to relieve the pressure on the bundled banknote bundle 10 so that the bundled banknote bundle 10 can be removed includes: driving the limit plate 230 downward by the second driving member 220 so that the supporting plate 250 moves downward from the second position to the third position to relieve the pressure on the bundled banknote bundle 10 so that the bundled banknote bundle 10 can be removed. When the supporting plate 250 is in the second position, the push rod 530 extends upward through the matching long hole 251 (see Figures 1 to 3 to understand).

[0091] In an exemplary embodiment, before the step of placing the paper tape 20 and the banknote handle 10 on the pressure relief mechanism 200, with the first protruding end 21 located on one side of the pressure relief mechanism 200 and the second protruding end 22 located on the other side of the pressure relief mechanism 200, and the banknote handle 10 pressed against the middle of the paper tape 20, the control method further includes: driving the paper tape supply mechanism 600 to supply a set length of paper tape 20 to the supporting plate 250, so that the middle of the paper tape 20 is supported on the pressure relief mechanism 200, the first protruding end 21 is located on one side of the pressure relief mechanism 200, and the second protruding end 22 is located on the other side of the pressure relief mechanism 200 (see Figure 1 、 Figures 10 to 12 、 Figure 20 to understand).

[0092] In an exemplary embodiment, the paper tape 20 and the banknote handle 10 are placed on the pressure relief mechanism 200, with the first protruding end 21 located on one side of the pressure relief mechanism 200 and the second protruding end 22 located on the other side of the pressure relief mechanism 200, and the banknote handle 10 is pressed against the middle of the paper tape 20. Before the step, the control method further includes: driving the banknote handle supply mechanism to supply the banknote handle 10 to the pressure relief mechanism 200 (see Figures 10 to 19 to understand).

[0093] For example, the step of driving the banknote supply mechanism to supply the banknote 10 to the pressure relief mechanism 200 includes: driving the banknote supporting plate 820 to move forward to the fourth position by the seventh driving member 810, and the banknote pushing assembly 900 pushes the banknote 10 put into the banknote holding chamber 700 forward and drops it onto the banknote supporting plate 820, and driving the banknote straightening plate 1200 to move toward the mounting vertical plate 2000 by the sixth driving member 1100 to straighten the banknote 10 pushed onto the banknote supporting plate 820, and after the straightening is completed, the sixth driving member 1100 drives the banknote supporting plate 820 to reset, and drives the banknote supporting plate 820 to move backward to the fifth position by the seventh driving member 810, and the banknote 10 on the banknote supporting plate 820 after straightening is blocked by the banknote pushing assembly 900 and falls onto the holding plate 250, and then drives the banknote pushing assembly 900 to reset (see Figures 10 to 19 to understand).

[0094] In an exemplary embodiment, after the step of driving the pressure relief mechanism 200 downward to relieve the pressure on the bundled banknotes 10 so that the bundled banknotes 10 can be removed, the control method further includes: driving the push member 520 forward by the third driving member 510, and the push rod 530 pushes the banknotes 10 forward, pushing the banknotes 10 forward and downward. After the banknotes 10 are pushed downward, the third driving member 510 drives the push member 520 to return to its original position, and the first driving member 110 drives the mounting plate 120 and the holding block 130 to return to their original position (see Figures 9 to 12 to understand).

[0095] Example 5

[0096] The control method of the banknote bundling machine provided in an embodiment of the present invention (not shown in the figure) includes:

[0097] The banknote holding plate 820 is driven forward to the fourth position by the seventh driving member 810, and the banknote pushing assembly 900 pushes the banknote 10 put into the banknote holding chamber 700 forward and onto the banknote holding plate 820. The banknote straightening plate 1200 is driven by the sixth driving member 1100 to move toward the mounting plate 2000 to straighten the banknote 10 pushed onto the banknote holding plate 820; the paper tape supply mechanism 600 is driven to supply a set length of paper tape 20 to the holding plate 250, so that the length of the paper tape 20 is adjusted. The middle portion is supported on the pressure relief mechanism 200, the first protruding end 21 is located on one side of the pressure relief mechanism 200, and the second protruding end 22 is located on the other side of the pressure relief mechanism 200. After the banknotes are sorted, the sixth driving member 1100 drives the banknote supporting plate 820 to return to its original position. The seventh driving member 810 drives the banknote supporting plate 820 to move back to the fifth position. The banknote handle 10 on the banknote supporting plate 820 is blocked by the banknote pushing assembly 900 and falls onto the supporting plate 250, and then the banknote pushing assembly 900 is driven to return to its original position.

[0098] The first driving member 110 drives the mounting plate 120 and the holding block 130 to move downward, so that the holding block 130 presses the banknote handle 10 against the concave surface of the holding plate 250 and presses the holding plate 250 from the first position to the second position. The middle portion of the banknote handle 10 and the middle portion of the paper tape 20 are bent downward along the concave surface. The two sides of the banknote handle 10, the first protruding end 21 and the second protruding end 22 are tilted upward along the concave surface. At this time, the push rod 530 extends upward through the matching long hole 251.

[0099] The fourth driving member 320 drives the top pressing member 330 to move obliquely downward toward the top surface of the banknote handle 10. The rope 350 is released. Under the action of the second elastic member 360, the side pressing member 340 swings toward the side of the banknote handle 10, thereby preferentially pressing a portion of the first extension end 21 against a side surface of the banknote handle 10. The top pressing member 330 then folds the other portion of the first extension end 21 back and presses it against the upper surface of the mounting plate 120. The first extension end 21 and the second extension end 22 are heat-sealed and bonded to the upper surface of the mounting plate 120.

[0100] The fifth driving member 420 is driven to control the heat sealing blade 440 via the four-link 430 to move in a curved direction toward the top surface of the banknote handle 10, folding the second extension end 22 onto the upper surface of the mounting plate 120, and heat-sealing it to the first extension end 21 on the upper surface of the mounting plate 120;

[0101] The second driving member 220 drives the limiting plate 230 to move downward, so that the supporting plate 250 moves downward from the second position to the third position to relieve the pressure on the bundled banknote bundle 10;

[0102] The third driving member 510 drives the pushing member 520 to move forward, and the push rod 530 pushes the banknote handle 10 forward, pushing the banknote handle 10 forward and downward. After the banknote handle 10 is pushed downward, the third driving member 510 drives the pushing member 520 to reset, and the first driving member 110 drives the mounting plate 120 and the holding block 130 to reset (see Figure 1 、 Figures 10 to 12 to understand).
