Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of cash dispensing, and in particular to an automatic dispensing and packing device. Background Art
[0002] Traditional vault material assembly adopts a manual operation mode, which has many disadvantages. Generally speaking, after obtaining the branch application information, it is necessary to summarize and print the application event form. The warehouse keeper enters the cash vault according to the application event form and summarizes the cash into the cart. After the cash is summarized, the branch cash boxes that need to be assembled are summarized according to the application event form. After the cash and the cash boxes are all summarized, the warehouse keeper completes the packing operation one by one according to the application event form. This method is not only inefficient, but also prone to human errors, which increases the bank's operating costs and risks.
[0003] Therefore, there are some automated cash distribution and packing solutions in the existing market. These solutions usually use SCARA sorting robots or parallel robots to complete the grasping and packing of money bundles, and use conveyor lines to carry out the circulation and packing of money boxes. Some solutions on the market directly use plastic packaging for packaging and plastic sealing. Obviously, the plastic packaging mode lacks the necessary guarantee for the safety of cash distribution. This mode is less used in the market, and most of them still use money boxes to pack to ensure the safety of cash in transit. However, in these existing solutions, the number of money bundles that a single robot grabs each time is usually only 1 bundle, and its grasping range coverage radius is usually within 1.5 meters. In order to solve this problem, traditional solutions either increase its grasping coverage by connecting multiple robots in series, or circulate six denominations into its grasping range through a transmission line. However, these methods have certain limitations, which not only increase the equipment cost and floor space, but also may increase the complexity of the system and reduce the overall reliability and stability.
[0004] In addition, SCARA robots or parallel robots mostly use sponge suction cups / rubber nozzles to absorb or clamp money bundles. However, due to the small load and limited adsorption force of small robots, the lateral swing amplitude is large during the transfer and packing process after absorption, which can easily cause money bundles to fall off, resulting in packing failure. When using clamps, due to the different conditions and postures of money bundles in the incoming box, the positioning accuracy of money bundles is very high. In this case, manual intervention is required, which not only increases labor costs, but also reduces work efficiency. At the same time, inaccurate positioning may also cause compression damage to banknotes.
[0005] Finally, because the grasping and packing robot needs to accurately position the suction cup and the money bundle, the visual system will be used to take pictures and identify before grasping. In this way, the cycle of visual superposition grasping is about 8 seconds to complete a bundle of work, which is relatively inefficient. In scenarios such as bank cash warehouses that have high efficiency requirements, this inefficient grasping method cannot effectively meet actual needs.

[0035] In the second step, the equipment automatically starts the cache task, the reading module on the truss robot 200 automatically scans and reads the RFID code, and the moving parts of the X-axis guide rail 202, the Y-axis guide rail 203 and the Z-axis guide rail 204 move, driving the upright suction cup mechanism 205 and the porous suction cup mechanism 206 to move to the tray 102, the porous suction cup mechanism 206 absorbs and transfers the bundles of money on the tray 102 to the cache flow channel according to the face value, and the upright suction cup mechanism 205 absorbs and transfers the empty tray 102 to the empty cart 101.
[0036] The third step is to place the payment box 900 on the payment box conveying platform 800. The payment box conveying platform 800 first transports the payment box 900 to the opening position. After the light sensor senses the payment box 900, the system issues an opening command. When the payment box 900 is a traditional box, the cylinder pushes the paddle frame to approach the bottom of the lock buckle 601 and the lock plate 602, and the rotating cylinder rotates to drive the rod frame to rotate, and then the paddle rod paddles the lock plate 602 out of the lock buckle 601. If it is a smart payment box, the above steps are omitted, and then the push frame plate of the push rod cylinder 605 is close to the payment box 900, and the cover opening suction cup 604 absorbs the box cover of the payment box 900, and then another rotating cylinder drives the cover opening suction cup 604 to rotate to open the cover, and then the opening mechanism 600 is reset.
[0037] In the fourth step, the staff clicks on the start of payment allocation, and the workstation automatically obtains the payment allocation order information from the bank's upper system and prepares to start payment allocation. The cash box transfer station 800 transfers the payment box 900 to the payment allocation position. When the amount of payment is small, if the laser sensor of the buffer flow channel fails to detect the slipping of the money bundle, the system will automatically drive the conveyor chain 401 in the buffer flow channel of the same denomination to operate, and the conveyor chain 401 moves the conveyor paddle 402 to allow the money bundle to pass through the buffer flow channel and the slide 404. The upper buffer platform 301 also includes a guide plate 1 405 and a turning platform 406 and falls onto the money bundle conveyor line 403 until all the denomination banknotes required for the current order are successfully pushed into the belt line, and then through the transmission of the money bundle conveyor line 403 and the guidance of the money bundles by the baffle 407 and the guide plate 2 408, the money bundles are neatly gathered at the exit of the money bundle conveyor line 403, and then fall along the money bundle conveyor line 403 into the opened payment box 900.
[0038] The fifth step, when the amount of money to be distributed is large, the limit door panel 409 closes the exit of the money bundle conveyor line 403. After the money bundles are piled up in a row, the limit door panel 409 opens, and the money bundles are conveyed to the protective cover 501 by the money bundle conveyor line 403. The chain 502 is driven to operate and the money bundles are pushed into the sorting table 504 through the push plate 503. The front and rear linear guides 506 and the upper and lower linear guides 507 operate to allow the sorting suction cup mechanism 508 to correspond to the money bundles in the sorting table 504. Then the sorting suction cup mechanism 508 absorbs the money bundles, and through the operation of the front and rear linear guides 506 and the upper and lower linear guides 507, the money bundles are neatly stacked into the payment box 900.
[0039] The sixth step, after the packing is completed, the cash box transfer station 800 transfers the payment box 900 to the review position. At the review position, the RFID device automatically reads the label information on the cash box and displays this information on the display screen 700, including the cash box number, order number, assembled banknote denomination and quantity, etc. The staff will verify the assembly quantity in the cash box one by one according to the order information displayed on the display screen 700, and manually load other required materials such as precious metals and certificates into the cash box if any; manually complete the review and lock the box according to the bank's rules as needed. If no review is required, the box will be automatically locked and the smart cash box will continue to circulate. The traditional cash box still needs to be manually locked to ensure that the cash box will not be illegally opened during the subsequent circulation process and will be transferred to the next process. After the box is locked, the cash box will continue to circulate to the next process, such as logistics transportation or internal processing of the bank.
[0040] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and various changes can be made within the knowledge scope of technicians in the relevant technical field without departing from the purpose of the present invention.
