[0056] The embodiments of the present application are described in detail below, and examples of the embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present application, and cannot be understood as limiting the present application.

[0057] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 4 The dispensing device provided in an embodiment of the present application is described, and the dispensing device includes a housing 100, a conveying mechanism 200, a pushing mechanism 300, a scanning module 400, a first position detection module and a controller.

[0058] The housing 100 forms a first accommodating chamber 110 having a first inlet 111 and a first outlet 112. That is, the housing 100 provides a physical space for storing and transporting the financial medium 10. The material of the housing 100 includes, but is not limited to, stainless steel, aluminum alloy, or titanium alloy. It should be noted that the sizes of the first inlet 111, the first outlet 112, and the first accommodating chamber 110 can be designed according to actual needs, and this embodiment does not impose any specific restrictions on this.

[0059] It should be noted that the financial medium 10 includes but is not limited to Ukey, a box-shaped structure containing at least one of commemorative coins and RMB, etc.

[0060] The conveying mechanism 200 is disposed in the first accommodating chamber 110 and is used to convey the financial medium 10 to the first outlet 112; the pushing mechanism 300 is movably disposed in the first accommodating chamber 110 and has a first state and a second state. The pushing mechanism 300 is used to receive the financial medium 10 from the first inlet 111 in the first state, and the pushing mechanism 300 is used to transfer the financial medium 10 to the conveying mechanism 200 in the second state.

[0061] It is understandable that when the financial medium 10 needs to be issued to the customer, the push mechanism 300 switches from the first state to the second state to transfer the financial medium 10 located at the first entrance 111 to the conveying mechanism 200, and then the financial medium 10 is conveyed to the first exit 112 by the conveying mechanism 200, so that the customer can take the financial medium 10 from the first exit 112, thereby improving the issuance efficiency. At the same time, since the conveying mechanism 200 and the push mechanism 300 are both located in the housing 100, the issuance of the financial medium 10 is automated while ensuring the safety of issuance.

[0062] The scanning module 400 is disposed on the housing 100 and is used to dynamically scan the financial medium 10 being transported. The first position detection module is used to obtain a position signal of the financial medium 10. The controller is electrically connected to the transport mechanism 200, the first position detection module and the scanning module 400, respectively, and is used to control the transport mechanism 200 and the scanning module 400 to enter a working mode according to the position signal of the financial medium 10.

[0063] It can be understood that when the controller determines that the financial medium 10 is at the feeding end of the conveying mechanism 200 (i.e., the conveying mechanism 200 switches to the second state) based on the first position detection module, the controller controls the conveying mechanism 200 to operate so that the financial medium 10 moves in the direction close to the first outlet 112, and controls the scanning module 400 to scan the barcode set on the financial medium 10 during the movement of the financial medium 10, ensuring the identity authentication and information recording of the financial medium 10 during the issuance process, reducing the possibility of pauses in the issuance process of the financial medium 10, improving the issuance efficiency and enhancing the security and reliability of the issuance of the financial medium 10.

[0064] According to the disbursement device provided in the embodiment of the present application, the automation of the disbursement of the financial medium 10 is achieved, which saves time and effort and improves the disbursement efficiency and reliability.

[0065] In some embodiments, Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the pushing mechanism 300 , the conveying mechanism 200 and the first outlet 112 are sequentially distributed along the first horizontal direction, and the direction of the first inlet 111 is parallel to the vertical direction.

[0066] For ease of subsequent understanding, the length direction of the financial medium 10 is parallel to the first horizontal direction, the width direction of the financial medium 10 is parallel to the second horizontal direction, and the thickness direction of the financial medium 10 is parallel to the vertical direction.

[0067] It can be understood that the orientation of the first outlet 112 is parallel to the first horizontal direction, that is, the financial medium 10 passes through the push mechanism 300, the conveying mechanism 200 and the first outlet 112 in sequence along the first horizontal direction, so that the financial medium 10 always moves along a straight line, ensuring the stability of the dispensing process of the financial medium 10, and at the same time improving the compactness of the dispensing device structure, so that it is suitable for installation and use in limited spaces such as bank counters or self-service terminals. At the same time, the orientation of the first inlet 111 is parallel to the vertical direction, which facilitates the financial medium 10 to fall vertically to the push mechanism 300 in the first state by its own gravity, realizing the automatic reception of the financial medium 10, and can further improve the compactness of the entire dispensing device structure, and ensure the coordinated work of the push mechanism 300 and the conveying mechanism 200, thereby improving the dispensing efficiency.

[0068] In some embodiments, Figures 2 to 4As shown, the pushing mechanism 300 includes a main body 310 and a first driving assembly. The main body 310 forms a through slot 311 for accommodating part of the financial medium 10. The through slot 311 penetrates the main body 310 in a direction close to the conveying mechanism 200, and the notch of the through slot 311 is parallel to the direction of the first inlet 111. The fixed end of the first driving assembly is arranged on the housing 100, and the driving end of the first driving assembly is connected to the main body 310, and is used to drive the main body 310 to approach or move away from the conveying mechanism 200. It should be noted that the shape and size of the through slot 311 can be designed according to actual needs, and this embodiment does not impose specific restrictions on this.

[0069] It is understood that the first inlet 111 and the through slot 311 are oriented in parallel, so that after the financial medium 10 enters the accommodation chamber through the first inlet 111, it can be directly partially placed in the through slot 311. In addition, the through slot 311 penetrates the main body 310 in the direction close to the conveying mechanism 200, that is, the first horizontal direction, to ensure that the part of the financial medium 10 located outside the through slot 311 can be transferred to the conveying mechanism 200 when the pushing mechanism 300 switches from the first state to the second state. At the same time, the first driving assembly drives the main body 310 to move along the first horizontal direction to achieve the switching of the pushing mechanism 300 between the first state and the second state.

[0070] In this embodiment, Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the length of the through groove 311 is less than the length of the financial medium 10 , and the depth of the through groove 311 is less than the thickness of the financial medium 10 , which not only facilitates the docking of the financial medium 10 between the first inlet 111 and the through groove 311 , but also ensures that the financial medium 10 is transferred to the conveying mechanism 200 under the action of the pushing mechanism 300 .

[0071] In some embodiments, Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the first driving assembly includes a first driving member 321, two spaced synchronous wheels 322 and a synchronous belt 323. The fixed end of the first driving member 321 is disposed on the housing 100; one of the synchronous wheels 322 is sleeved outside the output shaft of the first driving member 321; the synchronous belt 323 is wound around the synchronous wheel 322 and connected to the main body 310. The first driving member 321 includes but is not limited to a rotating motor.

[0072] It can be understood that the two synchronous wheels 322 are arranged at intervals along the first horizontal direction, and when the first driving member 321 is started, the output shaft drives one of the synchronous wheels 322 to rotate, and at the same time drives the synchronous belt 323 to rotate, so that the main body 310 is close to or away from the conveying mechanism 200 along the first horizontal direction, so as to realize the switching of the pushing mechanism 300 between the first state and the second state. Of course, in other embodiments, the first driving component can also drive the main body 310 to move by means of gear transmission or screw transmission, and this embodiment does not make specific restrictions on this.

[0073] In some embodiments, Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the pushing mechanism 300 further includes two stop blocks 330 disposed at intervals. The stop blocks 330 are at least partially disposed in the through slot 311 and located at an end away from the conveying mechanism 200 . The stop blocks 330 are suitable for abutting and cooperating with the financial medium 10 .

[0074] It can be understood that the two stop blocks 330 are arranged at intervals along the second horizontal direction, and the stop block 330 is located at the end of the through slot 311 away from the first outlet 112 along the first horizontal direction. The stop block 330 and the end surface of the financial medium 10 are abutted and matched, so that the main body 310 will not move or slide out of the through slot 311 when moving along the first horizontal direction toward the conveying mechanism 200, thereby ensuring the reliability of the transfer of the financial medium 10 to the conveying mechanism 200.

[0075] In some embodiments, Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the side of the stopper 330 close to the conveying mechanism 200 includes an inclined surface, and the inclined surface is inclined in a direction close to the conveying mechanism 200 along the groove bottom direction close to the through groove 311. It should be noted that the size and inclination angle of the inclined surface can be designed according to actual needs, and this embodiment does not impose specific restrictions on this.

[0076] It can be understood that the inclined surface is inclined from top to bottom along the first horizontal direction toward the direction close to the conveying mechanism 200, so as to facilitate the financial medium 10 to fall smoothly into the through groove 311 from the first inlet 111, and reduce the contact area between the main body 310 and the financial medium 10 during the movement, reduce friction, and help the smooth transfer of the financial medium 10 to the conveying mechanism 200.

[0077] In some embodiments, Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the main body 310 forms a guide hole, and the first driving assembly further includes a guide rod 324, which is disposed on the housing 100 and extends in a direction close to the conveying mechanism 200, and the guide rod 324 and the guide hole are slidably matched.

[0078] It can be understood that the guide rod 324 slides through the guide hole and the two ends of the guide rod 324 extend out of the guide hole and are connected to the inner wall of the accommodating cavity, thereby guiding the movement of the main body 310, ensuring the stability and linearity of the main body 310 during the movement, reducing the deviation of the main body 310 during the movement, and improving the reliability of the transfer of the financial medium 10.

[0079] In this embodiment, Figure 4As shown, the two guide rods 324 are spaced apart along the second horizontal direction to improve the stability of the main body 310 moving along the first horizontal direction. Of course, in other embodiments, the number and specific distribution of the guide rods 324 can also be adjusted according to actual needs, and this embodiment does not make specific restrictions on this.

[0080] In some embodiments, Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the conveying mechanism 200 includes a second driving member 210, a plurality of transmission wheels 220 and a conveyor belt 230. The fixed end of the second driving member 210 is disposed on the housing 100. The driving end of the second driving member 210 is connected to one of the transmission wheels 220 to drive the transmission wheel 220 to rotate around an axis parallel to the second horizontal direction. The conveyor belt 230 is wound around the transmission wheel 220 and can carry the financial medium 10. The second driving member 210 includes but is not limited to a rotating motor.

[0081] It is understandable that when the second driving member 210 is started, it drives one of the transmission wheels 220 to rotate through the output shaft, and drives the conveyor belt 230 to rotate, so that the financial medium 10 approaches the first outlet 112 along the first horizontal direction.

[0082] In some embodiments, Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the two conveyor belts 230 are arranged at intervals along the second horizontal direction to increase the contact area with the financial medium 10 and ensure the smooth movement of the financial medium 10 between the pushing mechanism 300 and the first outlet 112. Of course, in other embodiments, the number and specific distribution of the conveyor belts 230 can also be adjusted according to actual needs, and this embodiment does not impose specific limitations on this.

[0083] In some embodiments, Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the first position detection module includes a position sensing sheet 510 and a first proximity switch 520, and the position sensing sheet 510 is arranged on the main body 310; the first proximity switch 520 is installed in the first accommodating cavity 110 and is electrically connected to the controller, and the first proximity switch 520 and the position sensing sheet 510 cooperate with each other to obtain a first position signal, and the controller controls the conveying mechanism 200 to enter the working mode based on the first position signal.

[0084] It can be understood that when the pushing mechanism 300 switches from the first state to the second state, the main body 310 approaches the conveyor belt 230 under the action of the first driving member 321, and the position sensing sheet 510 and the first proximity switch 520 cooperate to obtain a first position signal. The controller can determine that at least part of the financial medium 10 has been transferred to the conveying mechanism 200 based on the first position signal, thereby controlling the conveyor belt 230 to enter the working mode, that is, the output shaft of the second driving member 210 rotates and drives the conveyor belt 230 and the financial medium 10 to move, so as to realize the delivery of the financial medium 10 to the first outlet 112.

[0085] In some embodiments, the controller is also electrically connected to the pushing mechanism 300 to control whether the pushing mechanism 300 is working.

[0086] It is understandable that the controller controls the push mechanism 300 to pause based on the first position signal, that is, the output shaft of the first driving member 321 stops rotating and the synchronous belt 323 does not move, so as to reduce the interference between the main body 310 and the conveyor belt 230 while the financial medium 10 is transferred from the push mechanism 300 to the conveyor mechanism 200. Similarly, after the financial medium 10 is completely separated from the main body 310, the controller controls the output shaft of the first driving member 321 to reverse, so as to switch the push mechanism 300 from the second state to the first state.

[0087] In some embodiments, Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the first position detection module also includes a second proximity switch 530, and the second proximity switch 530 and the first proximity switch 520 are arranged at intervals along the first horizontal direction, and the second proximity switch 530 is located on the side of the first proximity switch 520 away from the conveying mechanism 200. The second proximity switch 530 and the position sensing sheet 510 cooperate with each other to obtain an initial position signal, and the controller controls the first driving member 321 to stop based on the initial position signal.

[0088] It can be understood that when the pushing mechanism 300 switches from the second state to the first position, the main body 310 moves away from the conveyor belt 230 under the action of the first driving member 321, and the position sensing sheet 510 and the second proximity switch 530 cooperate to obtain an initial position signal. The controller can determine the pushing mechanism 300 to switch to the first state based on the initial position signal, thereby controlling the pushing mechanism 300 to stop, that is, the output shaft of the first driving member 321 stops rotating, ensuring that the main body 310 is accurately docked, so that the financial medium 10 can be accurately received from the first inlet 111 later, thereby improving the issuance efficiency and reliability.

[0089] In some embodiments, Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the first position detection module further includes a position sensor 540, which is disposed in the first accommodating cavity 110 and electrically connected to the controller. The position sensor 540 is arranged close to the conveying mechanism 200 to obtain a second position signal, and the controller controls the scanning module 400 to enter the working mode based on the second position signal. The position sensor 540 includes but is not limited to a photoelectric sensor.

[0090] It is understood that the position sensor 540 is disposed in the first accommodating cavity 110 and near the middle of the conveyor belt 230. When the financial medium 10 reaches the middle of the conveyor mechanism 200, the position sensor 540 senses the financial medium 10 and generates a second position signal. After receiving the second position signal, the controller controls the scanning module 400 to enter the working mode, that is, the scanning module 400 scans the financial medium 10 moving along the first horizontal direction to record the barcode image of the financial medium 10, ensuring that the issued financial medium 10 is correct, thereby improving the reliability and efficiency of issuance.

[0091] In some embodiments, the working mode of the conveying mechanism 200 has a starting phase and a maintaining phase; wherein, when the scanning module 400 is in the working mode, the conveying mechanism 200 is in the starting phase.

[0092] It should be noted that the conveying mechanism 200 is in the starting stage when the controller obtains the second position signal.

[0093] It is understandable that, since the rotation speed of the output shaft of the second driving member 210 in the startup phase is lower than the rotation speed of the output shaft of the second driving member 210 in the maintenance phase, the scanning module 400 is used to scan the financial medium 10 in the startup phase of the conveying mechanism 200, so that the financial medium 10 can stay in the scanning area of ​​the scanning module 400 for a longer time, improve the scanning accuracy, and ensure that the conveying mechanism 200 and the scanning module 400 work more smoothly. At the same time, the scanning module 400 can also use the method of real-time feedback of the scanning results to stop the conveying mechanism 200 in time when an abnormality is found in the financial medium 10, so as to avoid the possibility of the wrong financial medium 10 being issued from the first outlet 112, and ensure the safety and reliability of the issuing process.

[0094] In some embodiments, Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the dispensing device further includes a second position detection module 600, which is disposed in the housing 100 and electrically connected to the controller, and is used to detect the presence of the financial medium 10 at the first outlet 112. The second position detection module 600 includes but is not limited to a photoelectric sensor.

[0095] It is understandable that by providing the second position detection module 600 near the first exit 112 to detect the presence of the financial medium 10 at the first exit 112, the controller can determine whether the customer has taken the financial medium 10 at the first exit 112 in time, thereby improving the reliability of issuance.

[0096] In some embodiments, Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the dispensing device further includes a box body 700, which partially extends into the housing 100, and the box body 700 forms a second accommodating cavity having a second outlet 711, and the second outlet 711 is located between the pushing mechanism 300 and the first inlet 111, and the second accommodating cavity is used to accommodate a plurality of stacked financial media 10. It should be noted that the size and shape of the second outlet 711 and the second accommodating cavity can be designed according to actual needs, and this embodiment does not impose specific restrictions on this.
