The thickness measuring mechanism 71, the scanning mechanism 72 and the magnetic information reading mechanism 73 send the relevant information of the paper currency obtained to the controller, and the controller judges the authenticity, denomination, and whether it is suitable for circulation of the paper currency according to the information, and then controls the operation of the motor to drive the paper currency to move in the corresponding channel to complete the corresponding operation. Further optionally, the currency entering device 40 and the currency output device 50 are arranged in the up-down direction. In the embodiment, the currency output device 50 is exemplarily shown as being arranged below the currency entering device 40. Further optionally, the first intermediate channel 80 and the second intermediate channel 90 both extend in the up-down direction and are arranged in the front-rear direction. In other embodiments, the relative positions and the extending directions of the first intermediate channel 80 and the second intermediate channel 90 can be arranged according to actual needs.

[0060] Optionally, please refer to Figure 1 The upper conveying channel 20 comprises a currency output channel 11, a first channel 12 and a second channel 13. The currency output channel 11 is in communication with the currency output device 50, and the currency output channel 11 can be in communication with the first channel 12 and the second channel 13 selectively, the second intermediate channel 90 can be in communication with the first channel 12 and the second channel 13 selectively, and the currency recognition device 60 is arranged in the first channel 12. Such an arrangement can make the paper currency output after passing through the currency recognition device 60 or without passing through the currency recognition device 60 when withdrawing, so as to meet the use needs of different users. Specifically, as shown in Figure 2 When withdrawing, the conveying path of the paper currency passing through the currency recognition device 60 of the cash circulation processing device provided in the embodiment is that: the second intermediate channel 90 is in communication with the first channel 12, the currency output channel 11 is in communication with the first channel 12, the paper currency in the currency box enters the lower conveying channel 30, then enters the first channel 12 through the second intermediate channel 90, and then enters the currency output channel 11 after being recognized by the currency recognition device 60, so as to enter the currency output device 50 directly, thereby ensuring that the paper currency taken out by the user from the currency output device 50 is all qualified paper currency. As shown in Figure 3 When withdrawing, the conveying path of the paper currency not passing through the currency recognition device 60 of the cash circulation processing device provided in the embodiment is that: the second intermediate channel 90 is in communication with the second channel 13, the currency output channel 11 is in communication with the second channel 13, the paper currency in the currency box enters the lower conveying channel 30, then is conveyed to the second channel 13 through the second intermediate channel 90, and then enters the currency output device 50 directly through the currency output channel 11, so as to improve the efficiency of withdrawing.

[0061] Optionally, please refer to Figure 1 The cash outlet device 50 comprises a first accommodating part 22 for stacking paper currency, the first accommodating part 22 is provided with a cash taking opening 23 and a cash outlet opening 21, the cash outlet opening 21 is communicated with the cash outlet channel 11, the paper currency in the cash outlet channel 11 can enter the first accommodating part 22 through the cash outlet opening 21, and the user can take away the cash in the first accommodating part 22 through the cash taking opening 23.

[0062] Optionally, please refer to Figure 1 The upper conveying channel 20 further comprises a third channel 16, the first end of the third channel 16 is connected with the second intermediate channel 90, the first end of the first channel 12, the first end of the second channel 13 and the second end of the third channel 16 are converged at a first common convergence point 31, the second end of the first channel 12, the second end of the second channel 13 and the first end of the cash outlet channel 11 are converged at a second common convergence point 32, and the second end of the cash outlet channel 11 is connected with the cash outlet device 50. In this way, the second channel 13 and the first channel 12 are connected in a ring shape, and the compactness of the layout of the channels is improved.

[0063] It should be noted that in the embodiment, “the A channel and the B channel are communicated” can be understood as that the paper currency in the A channel can directly enter the B channel, and the paper currency in the A channel can also enter the B channel through the C channel; in the embodiment, “the A channel and the B channel are connected” can be understood as that the A channel and the B channel are converged, but there is a situation that the paper currency in the A channel cannot enter the B channel, for example, a reversing member is arranged at the convergence of the A channel and the B channel, the reversing member has a first position and a second position, when the reversing member is located at the first position, the paper currency in the A channel can enter the B channel through the reversing member, when the reversing member is located at the second position, the reversing member prevents the paper currency in the A channel from entering the B channel, and for another example, the A channel, the B channel and the C channel are converged, and a reversing member is arranged at the convergence of the three channels, the reversing member has a first position and a second position, when the reversing member is located at the first position, the paper currency in the A channel can only enter the C channel, when the reversing member is located at the second position, the paper currency in the C channel can only enter the B channel.

[0064] Optionally, please refer to Figure 1The upper conveying channel 20 also includes a coin inlet channel 14 and a transition channel 15. The first end of the coin inlet channel 14 is connected to the coin inlet device 40, and the second end of the coin inlet channel 14 intersects with the first channel 12 at a first connection point 33. The coin recognition device 60 is located between the first connection point 33 and the first end of the first channel 12.

The first end of the transition channel 15, the first end of the third channel 16, and the second intermediate channel 90 intersect at a third common intersection point 36. The second end of the transition channel 15 intersects with the coin outlet channel 11 at a third connection point 35, which is located between the first end of the coin outlet channel 11 and the second connection point 34. With this configuration, the cash circulation processing equipment provided in this embodiment can process deposits, such as... Figure 4 As shown, banknotes can enter the first channel 12 through the coin inlet channel 14. The banknotes are then identified by the coin recognition device 60. Banknotes identified as qualified by the coin recognition device 60 sequentially pass through the first channel 12, the third channel 16, the transition channel 15, the coin outlet channel 11, the first intermediate channel 80, and the lower conveyor channel 30 into the coin box. Banknotes identified as unqualified by the coin recognition device 60 sequentially pass through the first channel 12, the third channel 16, the transition channel 15, and the coin outlet channel 11 into the coin outlet device 50. The transition channel 15 reduces the risk of banknotes getting stuck at the first common intersection point 31. In this embodiment, the cash recycling processing equipment, when withdrawing cash, such as... Figure 2 As shown, banknotes identified as defective by the coin recognition device 60 can be sequentially collected into the coin box via the first channel 12, the coin dispensing channel 11, the first intermediate channel 80, and the lower conveying channel 30, thereby directly collecting defective banknotes instead of delivering them to the customer. Specifically, in this embodiment, one end of the second intermediate channel 90 is connected to the lower conveying channel 30, and the other end of the second intermediate channel 90 intersects with the first end of the transition channel 15 and the first end of the third channel 16. In other embodiments, the third channel 16 and the transition channel 15 are not required; the second intermediate channel 90, the first end of the first channel 12, and the first end of the second channel 13 directly intersect at the first common intersection point 31.

[0065] Please refer to Figure 1 In this embodiment, the coin insertion device 40 includes a second receiving part 41 for stacking banknotes.

[0081] Example 2

[0082] This embodiment provides a cash recycling processing device. The difference between this cash recycling processing device and the cash recycling processing device in Embodiment 1 is that, in the previous embodiment, the second end of the transition channel 15 and the first end of the first intermediate channel 80 both intersect with the coin dispensing channel 11, while in this embodiment, the second end of the transition channel 15 and the first end of the first intermediate channel 80 both intersect with the second channel 13, as detailed below.

[0083] Figure 10 This is a schematic diagram of the cash recycling processing device in Embodiment 2 of the present invention. Please refer to...Figure 10 In this cash circulation processing device, the first end of the first intermediate channel 80 intersects with the second channel 13 at the fourth connection point 391; the first end of the transition channel 15, the first end of the third channel 16, and the second intermediate channel 90 intersect at the third common intersection point 36; the second end of the transition channel 15 intersects with the second channel 13 at the fifth connection point 392, which is located between the first end of the second channel 13 and the fourth connection point 391.

[0084] In this embodiment, the cash recycling processing device, when withdrawing cash, if the banknotes need to be identified by the banknote recognition device 60, such as... Figure 11 As shown, banknotes in the circulation box 702 can sequentially pass through the lower conveying channel 30, the second intermediate channel 90, the third channel 16, and the second channel 13 into the first channel 12. The banknotes are then identified by the banknote recognition device 60 in the first channel 12. Banknotes identified as qualified by the banknote recognition device 60 sequentially pass through the first channel 12, the third channel 16, the transition channel 15, and the second channel 13 into the banknote dispensing channel 11, and then into the banknote dispensing device 50. Banknotes identified as unqualified by the banknote recognition device 60 sequentially pass through the first channel 12, the third channel 16, the transition channel 15, and the second channel 13 into the first intermediate channel 80, and then enter the storage box 701 via the lower conveying channel 30. If the banknotes do not need to be recognized by the banknote recognition device 60, such as... Figure 12 As shown, the banknotes in the circulation box 702 can sequentially enter the coin dispensing channel 11 through the lower conveying channel 30, the second intermediate channel 90, the third channel 16, and the second channel 13, and then enter the coin dispensing device 50 through the coin dispensing channel 11.

[0085] The cash recycling processing device provided in this embodiment, when depositing, such as Figure 13 As shown, banknotes can enter the first channel 12 through the coin inlet channel 14. The banknotes are identified by the coin recognition device 60 in the first channel 12. Banknotes identified as qualified by the coin recognition device 60 enter the coin box in sequence through the first channel 12, the third channel 16, the transition channel 15, the second channel 13, the first intermediate channel 80 and the lower conveying channel 30. Banknotes identified as unqualified by the coin recognition device 60 enter the coin dispensing device 50 in sequence through the first channel 12, the third channel 16, the transition channel 15, the second channel 13 and the coin dispensing channel 11, and are returned to the user.

[0086] The transition channel 15 of the cash circulation processing device provided in this embodiment reduces the reversal complexity at the first common intersection 31, reduces the risk of banknotes getting stuck at the first common intersection 31, and ensures that banknotes pass through the banknote recognition device 60 in the same direction whether depositing or withdrawing, which helps to improve the banknote recognition accuracy of the banknote recognition device 60.

[0087] Alternatively, please refer to Figure 10 to Figure 17In the embodiment, the cash circulation processing device further comprises a third switching member 58, which is arranged at the second common intersection 32 and is used to selectively connect the second channel 13 with the first channel 12 and the coin outlet channel 11.

[0088] Optionally, referring to Figure 10 to Figure 17 , the third switching member 58 is rotatably connected with the frame 10 and can rotate relative to the frame 10 to have a position A5 and a position B5. When the third switching member 58 is at the position A5, the third switching member 58 connects the second channel 13 with the first channel 12 and blocks the connection between the second channel 13 and the coin outlet channel 11. When the third switching member 58 is at the position B5, the third switching member 58 connects the second channel 13 with the coin outlet channel 11 and blocks the connection between the second channel 13 and the first channel 12. In the cash circulation processing device provided in the embodiment, when the paper currency is taken out and does not pass through the currency identification device 60, the third switching member 58 is at the position A5, as shown in Figure 12 , so that the paper currency can enter the coin outlet channel 11 through the second channel 13 and enter the coin outlet device 50 through the coin outlet channel 11. In the cash circulation processing device provided in the embodiment, when the paper currency is taken out and passes through the currency identification device 60, the third switching member 58 is first at the position A5, as shown in Figure 11 , so that the paper currency can enter the first channel 12 through the second channel 13. When the currency identification device 60 identifies the paper currency as qualified paper currency, the third switching member 58 is then at the position B5, so that the paper currency enters the coin outlet channel 11 through the second channel 13 and enters the coin outlet device 50 through the coin outlet channel 11.

[0089] Optionally, the structure of the lower conveying channel 30 in the second embodiment is the same as that of the lower conveying channel 30 in the first embodiment.
