Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of banknote processing technology, and more particularly to a modular banknote processing device. Background Technology

[0002] The packaging and processing of banknotes typically involves operations such as bundling, stacking, and binding. Bundling refers to securing a certain number of banknotes together with straps; the bundled banknotes are called banknote bundles. Stacking refers to neatly stacking multiple banknote bundles into a pile; binding involves securing the banknote pile with packaging film or straps.

[0003] In existing technologies, the above-mentioned processes are generally completed by banknote processing equipment, which integrates functional mechanisms such as stacking mechanism, printing mechanism, bundling mechanism, and sealing mechanism as needed. During operation, the banknote processing equipment transfers banknotes between the various mechanisms through a conveying mechanism. For example, after the banknote stacks are bundled by the bundling mechanism, they are transferred by the conveying mechanism to the sealing mechanism for sealing or bagging.

[0004] However, existing conveying mechanisms typically employ either a gripper structure or a belt conveyor structure. With a gripper structure, each transfer of banknotes requires waiting for the gripper to finish transporting and resetting before the next transfer can begin, resulting in poor overall production efficiency. While belt conveyors do not require waiting for resetting, their production efficiency is limited by the production cycle time of the upstream functional mechanisms, making it equally difficult to meet the demands of high-efficiency production.

[0005] Therefore, how to improve the packaging efficiency of banknote processing equipment is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved in this field. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the technical problem of low production efficiency in existing banknote processing equipment, this invention provides a modular banknote processing device, including a belt conveyor module, multiple stacking and bundling modules, and a packaging module. The belt conveyor module has multiple banknote inlet positions and at least one banknote outlet position. Each stacking and bundling module corresponds to one banknote inlet position, used to feed stacked and bundled banknotes into the belt conveyor module. During operation, the upstream stacking and bundling modules can respectively convey banknotes to the belt conveyor module, which then transports the banknotes from each inlet position to the downstream packaging module for packaging. This one-to-many modular layout allows the packaging module to receive banknotes from multiple stacking and bundling modules in parallel, effectively overcoming the limitations of a single upstream module's production cycle time, thereby significantly improving the overall production efficiency of banknote packaging.

Detailed Implementation

[0020] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions in this application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0021] It should be noted that when a component is referred to as "mounted on", "fixed on", or "set on" another component, it can be directly on or indirectly set on the other component; when a component is referred to as "connected to" another component, it can be directly connected to or indirectly connected to the other component.

[0022] It should be noted that the structures, proportions, sizes, etc., shown in the accompanying drawings are only for the purpose of assisting those skilled in the art in understanding and reading the content disclosed in the specification, and are not intended to limit the conditions under which this application can be implemented. Therefore, they have no substantial technical significance. Any modifications to the structure, changes in the proportions, or adjustments to the size should still fall within the scope of the technical content disclosed in this application, provided that they do not affect the effects and purposes that this application can produce.

[0023] This invention provides a modular banknote processing device, comprising a belt conveyor module, multiple stacking and bundling modules, and a packaging module. The belt conveyor module has multiple banknote inlet positions and at least one banknote outlet position. Each stacking and bundling module corresponds to one banknote inlet position and is used to feed stacked and bundled banknotes into the belt conveyor module. The packaging module corresponds to the banknote outlet position and is used to receive the banknote stacks from the belt conveyor module and to package the banknote stacks. This banknote processing device can improve the efficiency of banknote packaging and processing.

[0024] Please refer to the following: Figure 1 In one embodiment, a modular banknote processing device 1000 is provided, which is mainly used to stack banknote bundles to form banknote stacks and to package the banknote stacks. The modular banknote processing device 1000 is mainly used to solve the technical problem of poor production efficiency of existing banknote processing equipment.

[0025] The modular banknote processing equipment 1000 includes a belt conveyor module 200, multiple palletizing and bundling modules 100, and a packaging module 300. The belt conveyor module 200 refers to a module that uses a belt conveyor structure to transport banknotes. The belt conveyor module 200 has multiple (at least two) banknote input positions 201 and at least one banknote output position 202. The banknote input position 201 refers to the location within the belt conveyor module 200 used for inputting banknotes, while the banknote output position 202 is located downstream of the banknote input position 201 and used for outputting banknotes.

[0026] Each of the palletizing and bundling modules 100 corresponds to a banknote inlet 201, used to feed the palletized and bundled banknote stacks into the belt conveyor module 200. The packaging module 300 corresponds to the banknote outlet 202, used to receive the banknote stacks from the belt conveyor module 200 and to package them. Specifically, packaging the banknote stacks refers to wrapping them with packaging bags or films.

[0027] Understandably, existing banknote processing equipment typically employs gripper structures or belt conveyor structures to transport banknotes. With gripper structures, each transfer requires waiting for the grippers to finish transporting and resetting before the next transfer can begin, resulting in poor overall production efficiency. While belt conveyor structures do not require waiting for resetting, existing belt conveyor structures use a one-to-one transport method, interfacing with only one upstream mechanism. Their production efficiency is limited by the production cycle time of the upstream functional mechanism, making it difficult to meet the demands of high-efficiency production.

[0028] The modular banknote processing equipment 1000 provided in this embodiment, by setting up a belt conveyor module 200 with multiple banknote input positions 201, and connecting each banknote input position 201 to a corresponding palletizing and bundling module 100, allows banknote stacks from multiple palletizing and bundling modules 100 to be collected on the same conveyor line and then sent to the packaging module 300 for packaging via the banknote output position 202. In this way, the belt conveyor module 200 can receive banknote stacks from different palletizing and bundling modules 100 in parallel, eliminating the reciprocating reset waiting time required for gripper transfer and breaking the limitation of a single upstream mechanism's cycle time on the entire production line in the traditional one-to-one conveying mode. The packaging module 300 can obtain a continuous and dense supply of banknote stacks, fully utilizing its processing capacity and significantly improving the overall banknote stack processing efficiency. Furthermore, the number of palletizing and bundling modules 100 can be flexibly increased or decreased according to production needs, giving the equipment good scalability and adaptability to different scenarios, and enabling it to meet banknote processing needs of different scales.

[0029] In the modular banknote processing equipment 1000, the structures in each module can be operated intermittently, and the operating rhythms between each module and within each module are adapted to each other, thereby ensuring stability during the banknote delivery and docking process.

[0030] Specifically, in one embodiment, the belt conveyor module 200 has two banknote inlet positions 201 and one banknote outlet position 202, two stacking and bundling modules 100, and one packaging module 300. This allows the two stacking and bundling modules 100 to supply banknote stacks to the packaging module 300, thereby improving production efficiency. More specifically, the two stacking and bundling modules 100 and the packaging module 300 are all located on the side of the belt conveyor module 200. Of course, in other embodiments, the belt conveyor module 200 may have more banknote inlet positions 201 and banknote outlet positions 202, and the number of stacking and bundling modules 100 and packaging modules 300 may also be increased, as long as the production cycles of each module can be adapted to each other to meet the production needs of banknote packaging.

[0031] Please refer to the following: Figure 2Preferably, in one embodiment, a transfer mechanism 400 is provided between each of the palletizing and bundling modules 100 and the belt conveyor module 200, and between the packaging module 300 and the belt conveyor module 200. The transfer mechanism 400 is used to feed the banknote stacks from the palletizing and bundling module 100 into the belt conveyor module 200, or to feed the banknote stacks from the belt conveyor module 200 into the packaging module 300. That is, the transfer of banknote stacks between the palletizing and bundling module 100 and the belt conveyor module 200 is specifically achieved through the transfer mechanism 400. After the banknote stacks are conveyed to the banknote dispensing side in the palletizing and bundling module 100, the transfer mechanism 400 transfers the banknote stacks to the belt conveyor module 200. Similarly, the transfer mechanism 400 is used to transfer the banknote stacks between the belt conveyor module 200 and the packaging module 300. After the banknote stacks are conveyed to the banknote dispensing position 202 in the belt conveyor module 200, the transfer mechanism 400 transfers the banknote stacks to the packaging module 300. The transfer mechanism 400 allows for a smoother transfer of banknote stacks from the palletizing and bundling module 100 to the belt conveyor module 200, and also a smoother transfer of banknote stacks from the belt conveyor module 200 to the packaging module 300. Furthermore, the transfer mechanism 400 allows the palletizing and bundling module 100 and the packaging module 300 to have more possibilities for arrangement relative to the belt conveyor module 200. They are no longer limited to a specific area on the belt conveyor module 200 where the palletizing and bundling module 100 and the packaging module 300 can be arranged. The palletizing and bundling module 100 and the packaging module 300 can be arranged as needed in areas such as the side of the belt conveyor module 200.

[0032] Preferably, in one embodiment, the transfer mechanism 400 is a gripper-type transfer mechanism, comprising a gripper opening and closing drive 401, a gripper linear movement drive 402, and an openable and closable banknote stack transfer gripper 403. The output end of the gripper opening and closing drive 401 is connected to the banknote stack transfer gripper 403 and is used to drive the opening and closing of the banknote stack transfer gripper 403. The output end of the gripper linear movement drive 402 is connected to the gripper opening and closing drive 401 and is used to drive the entire banknote stack transfer gripper 403 to move linearly. Once the banknote stack is in place, the transfer gripper opening and closing drive 401 drives the banknote stack transfer gripper 403 to close, thereby clamping the banknote stack. Then, the transfer gripper linear movement drive 402 drives the transfer gripper opening and closing drive 401 to move linearly, thereby synchronously driving the banknote stack transfer gripper 403 and the banknote stack to move linearly, thus transferring the banknote stack from the stacking and bundling module 100 to the belt conveyor module 200 (or from the belt conveyor module 200 to the packaging module 300). Then, the transfer gripper opening and closing drive 401 drives the banknote stack transfer gripper 403 to unfold, thereby sending the banknote stack onto the belt conveyor module 200 (or the packaging module 300).

[0033] Preferably, in one embodiment, a lifting drive is further provided between the transfer gripper opening and closing drive 401 and the transfer gripper linear movement drive 402. The lifting drive can drive the transfer gripper opening and closing drive 401 to move up and down, thereby driving the banknote stack to move up and down during the transfer of the banknote stack, thus avoiding wear on the banknote stack during the transfer process and improving the stability of the banknote stack transfer.

[0034] Specifically, in one embodiment, the transfer gripper opening and closing drive 401 and the transfer gripper linear movement drive 402 can be any mechanism with linear drive function, such as a cylinder.

[0035] Specifically, in one embodiment, the packaging module 300 uses a packaging film to seal the banknote stack, thereby achieving packaging of the banknote stack.

[0036] Please refer to the following: Figures 3 to 6 Preferably, in one embodiment, the modular banknote processing equipment 1000 further includes a detection and diversion module 500. The detection and diversion module 500 is used to detect and divert banknote stacks, thereby separating good and defective banknotes after processing by the stacking and bundling module 100. The detection and diversion module 500 mainly addresses the problem that existing banknote processing equipment requires multiple different detection and diversion mechanisms, resulting in a complex overall structure and occupying a large amount of space.

[0037] The detection and diversion module 500 includes a detection and diversion frame 51 and a first detection conveying component 52, a second detection conveying component 53, and a third diversion conveying component 54 disposed on the detection and diversion frame 51. The first detection conveying component 52 is disposed on the banknote dispensing side of the packaging module 300 and is used to convey banknote stacks packaged by the packaging module 300 and to detect one type of information about the banknote stacks. The second detection conveying component 53 is disposed on the banknote dispensing side of the first detection conveying component 52 and is used to convey banknote stacks output by the first detection conveying component 52 and to detect another type of information about the banknote stacks. The third diversion conveying component 54 is disposed on the banknote dispensing side of the second detection conveying component 53 and is used to divert and convey the banknote stacks according to the detection results of the first detection conveying component 52 and the second detection conveying component 53.

[0038] Preferably, in one embodiment, the first detection and conveying assembly 52 includes a first banknote stack conveying unit 521 and a first banknote detection unit 522. The first banknote stack conveying unit 521 is disposed on the banknote dispensing side of the packaging module 300 and is used to convey banknote stacks packaged by the packaging module 300. The first banknote detection unit 522 is used to detect one type of information of the banknote stack conveyed on the first banknote stack conveying unit 521. The second detection and conveying assembly 53 includes a second banknote stack conveying unit 531 and a second banknote detection unit 532. The second banknote stack conveying unit 531 is located on the banknote dispensing side of the first banknote stack conveying unit 521 and is used to convey banknote stacks output by the first banknote stack conveying unit 521. The second banknote detection unit 532 is used to detect another type of information of the banknote stack conveyed on the second banknote stack conveying unit 531. That is, the second banknote detection unit 532 and the first banknote detection unit 522 are used to detect two different types of information on the banknotes. For example, when the first banknote detection unit 522 is used to detect the information code, the second banknote detection unit 532 is used to detect the weight. The specific detection information required by the second banknote detection unit 532 and the first banknote detection unit 522 can be selected according to the functional mechanisms set in the banknote processing equipment. The third diversion and conveying assembly 54 includes a third banknote stack conveying unit 541 and a pushing unit 542. The third banknote stack conveying unit 541 is located on the banknote output side of the second banknote stack conveying unit 531 and is used to convey the banknote stacks output by the second banknote stack conveying unit 531.

[0039] The pushing unit 542, the first banknote detection unit 522, and the second banknote detection unit 532 are electrically connected to the controller. The controller receives detection information from the first banknote detection unit 522 and the second banknote detection unit 532, and controls the pushing unit 542 to push the banknote stack off the third banknote stack conveying unit 541 based on the detection results. The pushing unit 542 pushes the banknote stack in a direction different from the conveying direction of the third banknote stack conveying unit 541, so that the pushed banknote stack is separated from the normally conveyed banknote stack. For example, the pushing unit 542 can be used to push out detected defective products. After the first banknote detection unit 522 or the second banknote detection unit 532 detects a defective product, when the defective product is transported to the third banknote stack conveying unit 541, the pushing unit 542 is activated to push out the defective product. When the third banknote stack conveying unit 541 is transporting inspected good products, the pushing unit 542 does not activate, thereby achieving the separation of good and defective products. Of course, the pushing unit 542 can also be used to push out good products, while the third banknote stack conveying unit 541 is used to transport defective products.

[0040] The controller here can be an independent controller integrated into the detection and diversion module 500, or it can be a controller directly used in the banknote processing equipment. Alternatively, integrating the controller into the push unit 542 is also feasible. It is sufficient that the controller can receive signals and output control signals to control the operation of the corresponding structure; this is well-known in the art and will not be elaborated further. Specifically, the controller can be a programmable logic controller (PLC), a microcontroller, etc.

[0041] Understandably, existing banknote processing equipment's detection and sorting mechanisms can only detect a single piece of information from banknotes, failing to meet the need for detecting multiple different types of information. When banknote processing equipment includes multiple functional mechanisms, multiple different detection and sorting mechanisms are required, resulting in a complex overall structure and occupying a significant amount of space. For example, if the banknote processing equipment includes a stacking mechanism, a weighing and sorting mechanism needs to be installed behind it. After the stacking mechanism piles the banknotes into stacks, the weighing and sorting mechanism is needed to weigh and sort the stacks. Similarly, if the banknote processing equipment includes a printing mechanism, a barcode scanning and sorting mechanism needs to be installed behind it. After the printing mechanism prints information codes on the banknotes, the barcode scanning and sorting mechanism is needed to scan and sort the information codes on the banknotes. In particular, when banknote processing equipment sets up multiple groups for each functional mechanism to improve production efficiency, if each group of functional mechanisms corresponds to a separate detection and sorting mechanism, this will greatly increase the overall space occupied by the equipment.

[0042] The detection and diversion module 500 provided in this embodiment integrates the first detection conveying component 52, the second detection conveying component 53, and the third diversion conveying component 54 onto the same detection and diversion frame 51. The first detection conveying component 52 and the second detection conveying component 53 are respectively equipped with a first banknote detection unit 522 and a second banknote detection unit 532 for detecting different information, allowing a single device to complete the detection of multiple information items on the banknotes. Simultaneously, the controller receives the two sets of detection information and performs a comprehensive judgment before controlling the push unit 542 in the third diversion conveying component 54 to perform the diversion action. Therefore, unlike existing technologies, there is no need to configure separate weighing and diversion mechanisms, barcode scanning and diversion mechanisms, and other detection and diversion devices for different functional mechanisms such as palletizing and printing mechanisms. This significantly reduces the number of devices, effectively simplifies the overall structure, and significantly reduces space occupation. The advantages of the detection and diversion module 500 in terms of structural integration and space saving are even more prominent when banknote processing equipment is equipped with multiple functional mechanisms to improve production efficiency.

[0043] In practical use, the detection and diversion module 500 can be located at the very end of the modular banknote processing equipment 1000, allowing the modular banknote processing equipment 1000 to perform a unified detection and diversion only at the very end. With this configuration, even if the modular banknote processing equipment 1000 is equipped with multiple palletizing mechanisms, printing mechanisms, and other functional mechanisms, the banknote stacks produced by each functional mechanism can be uniformly fed into the detection and diversion module 500 for centralized detection and diversion, eliminating the need to set up corresponding detection and diversion mechanisms after each functional mechanism. This not only further reduces the number of detection and diversion mechanisms in the modular banknote processing equipment 1000, but also makes the conveyor line simpler and more compact, effectively shortening the overall length of the modular banknote processing equipment 1000 and reducing the manufacturing cost and installation footprint. Simultaneously, the use of a unified controller for centralized judgment and unified diversion facilitates centralized control of the banknote quality of the entire production line, improving the coordination of equipment operation and the convenience of management and maintenance.

[0044] Preferably, in one embodiment, the first banknote detection unit 522 is a barcode scanner, used to detect the information code of the banknote stack conveyed on the first banknote stack conveying unit 521. Along the width direction of the detection and diversion frame 51, the first banknote detection unit 522 is located on one side of the first banknote stack conveying unit 521. The length, width, and height directions of the detection and diversion frame 51 are three mutually perpendicular directions, for example, as shown in... Figure 3As shown, the length, width, and height directions are X1, Y1, and Z1, respectively. Specifically, in one embodiment, the first banknote detection unit 522 is a QR code scanner used to detect the QR codes printed on the banknote stack. By using a scanner as the first banknote detection unit 522 in the first detection and conveying assembly 52, and placing it on one side of the first banknote stack conveying unit 521 along the width direction of the detection and diversion frame 51, non-contact information code reading can be performed on the banknote stacks being conveyed. The detection method is fast and accurate, and the side-mounted layout does not interfere with the normal conveying path of the banknote stacks, keeping the space above the first banknote stack conveying unit 521 open, which facilitates the handling, observation, and daily maintenance of the banknote stacks. When the first banknote detection unit 522 specifically adopts a QR code scanner, it can effectively read the QR code information printed on the banknote stack, meet the back-end detection requirements of the printing mechanism in the modular banknote processing equipment 1000, reliably identify defects such as missing or misprinted information codes, and provide a reliable information basis for the subsequent comprehensive judgment of the controller and the accurate distribution of the push unit 542.

[0045] Preferably, in one embodiment, the second banknote detection unit 532 is a weighing device, used to detect the weight of the banknote stack conveyed on the second banknote stack conveying unit 531. The weighing device is located at the bottom of the second banknote stack conveying unit 531, and the second banknote stack conveying unit 531 is mounted on the detection and diversion frame 51 via the weighing device. By using a weighing device for the second banknote detection unit 532 and placing it at the bottom of the second banknote stack conveying unit 531, the second banknote stack conveying unit 531 is supported on the detection and diversion frame 51 by the weighing device. This allows for direct weighing of the banknote stack during the conveying process, eliminating the need for additional weighing stations or banknote stack transfers. The detection process is synchronized with the conveying process, saving processing time. Furthermore, this bottom-weighing structure allows the weighing device to function as both a detection device and a supporting foundation for the second banknote stack conveying unit 531. The structure is compact and does not occupy additional space in the length and width directions of the detection and diversion frame 51, contributing to the miniaturization of the entire machine. By weighing and detecting, stacks of banknotes with insufficient banknote bundles can be effectively identified, complementing the barcode scanning detection of the first banknote detection unit 522, and providing a reliable basis for the subsequent comprehensive judgment of the controller and the accurate diversion of the push unit 542.

[0046] Preferably, in one embodiment, the pushing unit 542 includes a pushing unit mounting bracket 5421, a pushing unit linear drive 5422, and a pushing unit push plate 5423. The pushing unit mounting bracket 5421 is disposed on the detection and diversion frame 51. The pushing unit linear drive 5422 is disposed on the pushing unit mounting bracket 5421, and the pushing unit push plate 5423 is disposed at the output end of the pushing unit linear drive 5422. The pushing unit linear drive 5422 is used to drive the pushing unit push plate 5423 to move linearly, so as to push the banknote stack out from the third banknote stack conveying unit 541; and the movable direction of the pushing unit linear drive 5422 is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the third banknote stack conveying unit 541. By setting the movable direction of the linear drive component 5422 of the pushing unit to be perpendicular to the conveying direction of the third banknote stack conveying unit 541, the pushing action and the conveying action are orthogonally separated in space. The pusher plate 5423 of the pushing unit can push the banknotes laterally from the third banknote stack conveying unit 541 with the shortest linear stroke. The pushing path is simple and direct, and the action response is rapid. At the same time, using the linear drive component 5422 of the pushing unit as the power source, the structure is simple and reliable, and it is easy to accurately control the extension and retraction stroke of the pusher plate 5423 of the pushing unit, which can effectively avoid banknote jamming problems caused by insufficient or excessive pushing. In addition, the pushing unit 542 is independently installed on the detection and diversion frame 51 through the pushing unit mounting bracket 5421, and is structurally independent of the third banknote stack conveying unit 541, which facilitates assembly, disassembly, debugging and subsequent maintenance.

[0047] Specifically, in one embodiment, the linear drive 5422 of the pushing unit may be a cylinder.

[0048] Preferably, in one embodiment, the first banknote stack conveying unit 521, the second banknote stack conveying unit 531, and the third banknote stack conveying unit 541 are arranged sequentially along the length of the detection and diversion frame 51. All three units are belt conveyors, and they operate intermittently. By sequentially arranging these three units along the length of the detection and diversion frame 51 and using belt conveyors, the banknote stacks are transported along a straight path throughout the detection and diversion process. This streamlined and smooth path avoids frequent turning of the banknote stacks in the transport direction, improving transport efficiency and reducing the risk of banknote jamming. Meanwhile, the first banknote stack conveying unit 521, the second banknote stack conveying unit 531, and the third banknote stack conveying unit 541 all operate intermittently, which can coordinate with the detection actions of the first banknote detection unit 522 and the second banknote detection unit 532 as well as the diversion action of the pushing unit 542. During detection, the banknote stack is accurately positioned in the detection area, and during diversion, the banknote stack is stably stopped at the pushing position, thereby effectively ensuring detection accuracy and diversion reliability.

[0049] Specifically, in one embodiment, the conveying directions of the first banknote stack conveying unit 521, the second banknote stack conveying unit 531, and the third banknote stack conveying unit 541 are all along the length direction of the detection and diversion frame 51. For example, Figure 3 As shown, the first banknote stack conveying unit 521, the second banknote stack conveying unit 531, and the third banknote stack conveying unit 541 are all used to convey banknotes from the upper right to the lower left direction. The pushing direction of the pushing unit 542 is along the width direction of the detection and diversion frame 51, for example, as... Figure 3 As shown, the pushing unit 542 is used to push the banknote from the lower right to the upper left.

[0050] Preferably, in one embodiment, the detection and diversion module 500 further includes a receiving member 55 and a receiving platform 56. The receiving member 55 is provided at the conveying outlet 5401 of the third banknote stack conveying unit 541 and the pushing outlet 5402 of the pushing unit 542. The receiving member 55 is used to receive the delivered banknote stacks, and each receiving member 55 has a receiving platform 56 at its end. The receiving member 55 is provided with several freely rotatable rollers 551, which receive the delivered banknote stacks and move them to the receiving platform 56. By setting receiving members 55 at the conveying outlet 5401 of the third banknote stack conveying unit 541 and the pushing outlet 5402 of the pushing unit 542, and setting receiving platforms 56 at the ends of each receiving member 55, good and defective banknotes can fall onto their respective receiving members 55 after being sent out through different outlets, achieving independent receiving and collection after diversion and avoiding confusion between good and defective banknotes. Simultaneously, the receiving members 55 are equipped with several freely rotatable rollers 551. During the process of the banknote stack sliding along the rollers 551 to the receiving platform 56 under the action of gravity or pushing inertia, the rolling friction of the rollers 551 effectively reduces the frictional resistance between the banknote stack and the receiving member 55, making the banknote stack move more smoothly and reducing jamming. Furthermore, after being guided by the receiving members 55, the banknote stacks are neatly stacked on the receiving platform 56, facilitating subsequent handling and organization by operators, improving operational convenience and work efficiency.

[0051] Preferably, in one embodiment, the first detection and conveying assembly 52 further includes a banknote stack guiding unit 524, which is located upstream of the first banknote detection unit 522 and is used to guide the banknote stacks conveyed on the first banknote stack conveying unit 521. The banknote stack guiding unit 524 includes a banknote stack guiding fixed side plate 5241, a banknote stack guiding movable side plate 5242, and a banknote stack guiding side plate driving member 5243. The banknote stack guiding fixed side plate 5241 and the banknote stack guiding movable side plate 5242 both extend along the conveying direction of the first banknote stack conveying unit 521; and along the width direction of the detection diversion frame 51, the banknote stack guiding fixed side plate 5241 and the banknote stack guiding movable side plate 5242 are located on opposite sides of the first banknote stack conveying unit 521. The moving end of the banknote stack guiding side plate drive component 5243 is connected to the banknote stack guiding movable side plate 5242, and is used to drive the banknote stack guiding movable side plate 5242 to move closer to or further away from the banknote stack guiding fixed side plate 5241, so as to adjust the distance between the banknote stack guiding movable side plate 5242 and the banknote stack guiding fixed side plate 5241.

[0052] It is understandable that after the banknote stack is fed into the first banknote detection unit 522, the banknote stack may be tilted, causing the information code on the banknote stack to be skewed. This results in the first banknote detection unit 522 being unable to scan the information code properly after the first banknote stack conveying unit 521 delivers the banknote stack to the first banknote detection unit 522. However, the banknote stack guiding unit 524 can be used to guide the banknote stack, preventing this skewed situation from affecting subsequent scanning. For example, when the banknote stack is fed from the packaging module 300 into the first banknote detection unit 522, the banknote stack guiding side plate drive 5243 drives the banknote stack guiding movable side plate 5242 to move. This makes the distance between the banknote stack guiding movable side plate 5242 and the banknote stack guiding fixed side plate 5241 match the width of the banknote stack in its normal state. Thus, the banknote stack can be guided and skewed by the two side plates, preventing the banknote stack from being skewed and ensuring the effectiveness of subsequent scanning and detection.

[0053] Specifically, in one embodiment, the banknote stack guide side plate drive 5243 is a cylinder. Of course, in other embodiments, depending on actual needs, the banknote stack guide side plate drive 5243 can also be any other mechanism with linear drive capability.

[0054] Preferably, in one embodiment, the first detection and conveying assembly 52 further includes a banknote stack first position detection unit 523. The banknote stack first position detection unit 523 is used to detect the banknote stack fed into the first banknote stack conveying unit 521, thereby controlling the operation of the banknote stack guiding side plate drive member 5243. The banknote stack first position detection unit 523 is located at the banknote inlet position of the first banknote stack conveying unit 521 and is used to detect whether the packaging module 300 has fed the banknote stack into the banknote stack first position detection unit 523. By detecting a corresponding signal through the banknote stack first position detection unit 523, the operation of the banknote stack guiding side plate drive member 5243 is controlled. For example, when the first banknote stack conveying unit 521 receives the banknote stack from the packaging module 300, the distance between the banknote stack guiding movable side plate 5242 and the banknote stack guiding fixed side plate 5241 can be greater than the width of the banknote stack, thus facilitating the feeding of the banknote stack. After the banknote stack enters the first banknote stack conveying unit 521, the banknote stack first position detection unit 523 detects the arrival signal, and then the banknote stack guiding side plate drive member 5243 drives the banknote stack guiding movable side plate 5242 to move towards the side closer to the banknote stack guiding fixed side plate 5241 to adapt to the width of the banknote stack and guide it. The banknote stack first position detection unit 523 is electrically connected to the controller.

[0055] The first position detection unit 523 of the banknote stack can be selected from either a contact or non-contact position detection sensor. For example, the first position detection unit 523 of the banknote stack can be any one of a photoelectric switch or a fiber optic sensor. The above-mentioned sensor types are all commonly used position detection devices in the art, and their selection and installation methods are well known to those skilled in the art based on actual working conditions, and will not be described in detail here.

[0056] Preferably, in one embodiment, the second detection and conveying assembly 53 further includes a second banknote stack position detection unit 533, which is used to detect the position of the banknote stack on the second banknote stack conveying unit 531 to control the operation of the second banknote stack conveying unit 531. Similarly, the second banknote stack position detection unit 533 is electrically connected to the controller and is used to control the second banknote stack conveying unit 531 to stop operating by detecting the banknote stack, thereby better ensuring that the banknote stack can remain in the required position area.

[0057] Specifically, in one embodiment, the detection area of ​​the second banknote stack position detection unit 533 is set towards the center area of ​​the conveying path of the second banknote stack conveying unit 531. When the banknote stack is conveyed along the second banknote stack conveying unit 531 to the top of the weighing device, the second banknote stack position detection unit 533 triggers a signal, and the controller controls the second banknote stack conveying unit 531 to stop, so that the banknote stack stays stably at the center weighing position, thereby ensuring the accuracy and reliability of the weighing detection.

[0058] Preferably, in one embodiment, along the conveying direction of the third banknote stack conveying unit 541, the third banknote stack conveying unit 541 has a receiving area 5411, a diversion area 5412, and a discharge area 5413. The pushing unit 542 is arranged corresponding to the diversion area 5412. The third diversion conveying assembly 54 further includes a third banknote stack position detection unit 543 and a fourth banknote stack position detection unit 544. The detection area of ​​the third banknote stack position detection unit 543 faces the diversion area 5412 and is used to detect banknote stacks in the diversion area 5412. The detection area of ​​the fourth banknote stack position detection unit 544 faces the discharge area 5413 and is used to detect banknote stacks in the discharge area 5413. The third position detection unit 543 and the fourth position detection unit 544 of the banknote stack are electrically connected to the controller. The detection signal of the third position detection unit 543 is mainly used to control the third banknote stack conveying unit 541 to stop running and the push unit 542 to run. The fourth position detection unit 544 of the banknote stack is mainly used to count the banknote stacks sent out by the third banknote stack conveying unit 541. By setting up a third banknote stack position detection unit 543 and a fourth banknote stack position detection unit 544 electrically connected to the controller, and respectively used to detect banknote stacks in the diversion area 5412 and the discharge area 5413, the third banknote stack position detection unit 543 can sense in real time whether the banknote stack has reached the diversion station, thereby controlling the third banknote stack conveying unit 541 to stop running and triggering the pushing unit 542 to perform a pushing and diversion action, ensuring precise coordination between the pushing action and the banknote stack position, effectively improving the accuracy and reliability of the diversion action; the fourth banknote stack position detection unit 544 can detect and count when the banknote stack leaves the discharge area 5413, which facilitates the statistical management of the number of banknote stacks output normally, and can also serve as a confirmation signal for whether the banknote stack has been successfully output, providing convenience for equipment operation monitoring. In addition, the third banknote stack position detection unit 543 can also have the function of counting banknote stacks.

[0059] Similarly, the second position detection unit 533, the third position detection unit 543, and the fourth position detection unit 544 of the banknote stack can be selected from contact or non-contact position detection sensors. For example, the second position detection unit 533, the third position detection unit 543, and the fourth position detection unit 544 of the banknote stack can adopt any one of a slotted photoelectric sensor, a through-beam photoelectric sensor, or a fiber optic sensor.

[0060] Preferably, in one embodiment, the detection and diversion module 500 further includes a display screen 57, which is mounted on the detection and diversion rack 51 and electrically connected to the controller. The display screen 57 is mainly used to display relevant information, such as the quantity of defective and good stacks.

[0061] The following describes the specific structures that the palletizing and bundling module 100 may use in some embodiments: Please refer to the following: Figure 7 and Figure 8 Preferably, in one embodiment, the stacking and bundling module 100 includes a banknote taking module 101, a stacking and bundling module 102, and a conveying module 103. The banknote taking module 101 is used to receive and convey banknote bundles. The stacking and bundling module 102 is located downstream of the banknote taking module 101 and is used to stack and bundle the banknote bundles. In this application, the location of one component downstream of another is based on the direction of banknote transport in the device. For example, if the stacking and bundling module 102 is located downstream of the banknote taking module 101, then when the banknotes are transported in the device, they will first pass through the banknote taking module 101 and then through the stacking and bundling module 102. The conveying module 103 is located downstream of the stacking and bundling module 102 and corresponds to the banknote feeding position 201 of the belt conveyor module 200, and is used to convey the banknote stacks to the belt conveyor module 200.

[0062] The banknote retrieval module 101 is mainly used to retrieve sorted and bundled banknote bundles from the external sorting and bundling equipment 2000 and then pass them downstream. In other words, in this embodiment, the modular banknote processing equipment 1000 does not have a sorting and bundling function; instead, the banknotes are sorted and bundled by an external device (sorting and bundling equipment 2000). The modular banknote processing equipment 1000 can receive the banknote bundles sorted and bundled by the external device.

[0063] Please refer to the following: Figure 9 Preferably, in one embodiment, the banknote dispensing module 101 includes a banknote dispensing mechanism 10 and a banknote conveying mechanism 20. The banknote conveying mechanism 20 is located on the banknote dispensing side of the banknote dispensing mechanism 10 and is used to receive and convey banknotes sent out from the banknote dispensing mechanism 10; the stacking and bundling module 102 is disposed on the banknote dispensing side of the banknote conveying mechanism 20.

[0064] Please refer to the following: Figures 10 to 12Preferably, in one embodiment, the banknote dispensing mechanism 10 includes a banknote dispensing base 11, a banknote dispensing belt conveyor assembly 12, and a banknote dispensing rotation drive unit 13. The banknote dispensing belt conveyor assembly 12 includes a banknote dispensing frame 121 and a banknote dispensing belt conveyor unit 122 mounted on the banknote dispensing frame 121. The banknote dispensing belt conveyor unit 122 is used to convey banknote bundles, and the conveying direction of the banknote dispensing belt conveyor unit 122 is along the length direction of the banknote dispensing frame 121. The length direction, width direction, and height direction of the banknote dispensing frame 121 are three mutually perpendicular directions, for example, such as... Figure 10 As shown, the length direction, width direction, and height direction are the directions indicated by X2, Y2, and Z2, respectively.

[0065] Along the width direction of the cash dispensing frame 121, one side of the bottom of the cash dispensing frame 121 is hinged to the cash dispensing base 11, and the other side of the bottom of the cash dispensing frame 121 is detachably supported by the cash dispensing base 11; and the hinge shaft 14 between the cash dispensing frame 121 and the cash dispensing base 11 is arranged along the length direction of the cash dispensing frame 121. That is to say, along the width direction, one side of the bottom of the cash dispensing frame 121 is rotatably connected to the cash dispensing base 11 through the hinge shaft 14, while the other side is only supported by the cash dispensing base 11 without being connected or fixed, and the hinge shaft 14 is arranged along the length direction of the cash dispensing frame 121.

[0066] The banknote dispensing rotation drive unit 13 is mounted on the banknote dispensing base 11 and connected to the banknote dispensing frame 121. It drives the banknote dispensing frame 121 to rotate around the hinge axis 14, thereby tilting the banknote dispensing belt conveyor assembly 12 as a whole. In other words, the banknote dispensing rotation drive unit 13 is the drive source that rotates the banknote dispensing belt conveyor assembly 12. Power provided by the banknote dispensing rotation drive unit 13 allows the banknote dispensing frame 121 to rotate around the hinge axis 14, thus adjusting the overall tilt angle of the banknote dispensing belt conveyor assembly 12.

[0067] Understandably, there is a type of sorting and bundling device 2000 in the existing technology where, after bundling banknotes into bundles, the bundles are placed at an angle at the banknote outlet. For this type of bundling device that dispenses banknotes at an angle, there is currently no banknote retrieval structure that can be well adapted to it, making it difficult to achieve stable retrieval and handover of banknote bundles.

[0068] In this embodiment, when the banknote dispensing mechanism 10 needs to dock with the upstream sorting and bundling equipment 2000, the banknote dispensing rotation drive unit 13 drives the banknote dispensing frame 121 to rotate around the hinge shaft 14. Since the hinge shaft 14 is arranged along the length direction of the banknote dispensing frame 121, the banknote dispensing belt conveyor assembly 12 can tilt as a whole around its length direction. This tilting action allows the feed end of the banknote dispensing belt conveyor unit 122 to swing precisely to an angle that matches the banknote outlet of the sorting and bundling equipment 2000, thereby achieving seamless matching with the tilted banknote bundles in terms of posture. Subsequently, the tilted banknote bundles can be smoothly transferred to the banknote dispensing belt conveyor unit 122, which is also in a tilted state. After receiving the banknote bundle, the banknote dispensing rotation drive unit 13 can drive the banknote dispensing frame 121 to rotate in the opposite direction and reset, so that the other side of the bottom of the banknote dispensing frame 121 is supported on the banknote dispensing base 11 again. At this time, the banknote dispensing belt conveyor unit 122 returns to a horizontal state, providing stable support for the subsequent horizontal conveying of the banknote bundle.

[0069] The banknote dispensing mechanism 10, through its hinged connection structure with the banknote dispensing rotation drive unit 13 that allows the banknote dispensing belt conveyor assembly 12 to tilt as a whole, overcomes the limitation of traditional fixed conveyor mechanisms that cannot adapt to tilted banknote dispensing. This ensures a smooth and stable transfer of banknote bundles from the tilted state to the conveying state, effectively avoiding problems such as banknote jamming and dropping. Furthermore, the banknote dispensing mechanism 10 can be directly arranged as a standardized module after the tilted banknote sorting and bundling device 2000, achieving seamless automated connection from tilted bundling to horizontal conveying. No manual intervention is required for picking up and placing banknote bundles, significantly improving the overall automation level and work efficiency of the banknote processing flow. Furthermore, the other side of the bottom of the banknote dispensing frame 121 is raised to form an inclination during operation, and resets and supports the banknote dispensing base 11 during transport. This separable support design allows the banknote dispensing mechanism 10 to flexibly switch between an inclined docking state and a horizontal transport state as needed. After switching, the upper surface of the banknote dispensing belt conveyor unit 122 can still remain flush with the subsequent transport equipment, without affecting subsequent stacking, bundling and other processing procedures.

[0070] Preferably, in one embodiment, the banknote conveying assembly 12 further includes a banknote collection structure 123, which includes a banknote collection unit 1231 and a banknote collection linear drive unit 1232. The banknote collection unit 1231 is located above the banknote conveying assembly 122 and is used to feed banknote bundles into the banknote conveying assembly 122. The banknote collection linear drive unit 1232 is disposed on the banknote collection frame 121, and the output end of the banknote collection linear drive unit 1232 is connected to the banknote collection unit 1231, for driving the banknote collection unit 1231 to move linearly along the length direction of the banknote collection frame 121, so that the banknote collection unit 1231 docks with the sorting and bundling equipment 2000. The banknote retrieval structure 123 allows the banknote retrieval mechanism 10 to interface with a sorting and bundling device 2000 that lacks a banknote dispensing mechanism. When interfaced with such device, the banknote retrieval linear drive unit 1232 drives the banknote retrieval unit 1231 out of the banknote retrieval frame 121, sending the banknote retrieval unit 1231 into the upstream sorting and bundling device 2000 to receive and push the banknote bundle. Then, the banknote retrieval linear drive unit 1232 drives the banknote retrieval unit 1231 to reset, allowing the banknote retrieval unit 1231 to simultaneously send the banknote bundle into the banknote conveyor belt unit 122. This structural design enables the banknote retrieval mechanism 10 to actively receive banknote bundles, allowing it to interface not only with sorting and bundling devices 2000 equipped with a banknote dispensing mechanism but also with those lacking a banknote dispensing mechanism. Through the telescopic movement of the cash-retrieving unit 1231, it can directly reach into the upstream equipment to receive the cash handle, overcoming the limitations of the passive waiting method and significantly expanding the application scenarios of the cash-retrieving mechanism 10. Furthermore, the cash-retrieving structure 123 is integrated entirely onto the cash-retrieving frame 121, utilizing the internal space of the frame 121 to arrange the linear drive unit 1232 and the cash-retrieving unit 1231, without occupying additional external space, resulting in a compact and rational layout. The two tasks of retrieving and returning the cash can be completed simultaneously through a single linear reciprocating motion, achieving a high degree of functional integration with a minimalist structure.

[0071] Preferably, in one embodiment, the cash dispensing unit 1231 includes a cash dispensing mounting plate 12311, a cash dispensing push plate 12312, and a cash dispensing push plate driving member 12313. The cash dispensing mounting plate 12311 is connected to the output end of the cash dispensing linear drive unit 1232. The cash dispensing push plate 12312 is rotatably mounted on the cash dispensing mounting plate 12311, and the rotation shaft 12314 of the cash dispensing push plate 12312 is arranged along the width direction of the cash dispensing frame 121. The cash dispensing push plate driving member 12313 is connected to the cash dispensing push plate 12312 and is used to drive the cash dispensing push plate 12312 to rotate. In this embodiment, the working process of the cash dispensing structure 123 when docking with the sorting and bundling equipment 2000 is as follows: First, the banknote pusher plate 12312 is in a retracted state parallel to the length direction of the banknote dispensing frame 121. The banknote dispensing linear drive unit 1232 drives the banknote dispensing unit 1231 to extend into the banknote outlet of the sorting and bundling device 2000. During this process, since the banknote pusher plate 12312 remains in a retracted state parallel to the length direction of the banknote dispensing frame 121, the banknote pusher plate 12312 can smoothly pass over the banknote bundle 3000, avoiding interference with the banknote bundle 3000.

[0072] After the cash dispensing unit 1231 moves into position, the cash dispensing pusher drive 12313 drives the cash dispensing pusher 12312 to rotate around the rotating shaft 12314 to a lowered state, so that the cash dispensing pusher 12312 is located on the back side of the cash handle 3000; then, the cash dispensing linear drive unit 1232 drives the cash dispensing unit 1231 to move back to its original position, and the cash dispensing pusher 12312 in the rotated and lowered state abuts against the back of the cash handle 3000, thereby pushing the cash handle 3000 out of the cash outlet and sending it onto the cash dispensing belt conveyor unit 122, completing the active reception and conveying of the cash handle.

[0073] Through this structural design, the banknote-retrieving pusher 12312 maintains a parallel, retracted state when extending into the banknote outlet, allowing it to smoothly pass over the banknote handle 3000 without collision or jamming. Once in position, it flips and lowers to push the banknote. The entire action sequence is rationally designed, with the forward extension and pullback paths not interfering with each other, ensuring a smooth and reliable banknote retrieval process. Furthermore, the combined movement of the banknote-retrieving pusher 12312's flipping motion and the banknote-retrieving linear drive unit 1232 requires only three simple steps: forward extension, flipping, and pullback. This minimalist mechanical structure achieves complex functional connections, reducing manufacturing costs and failure rates. Moreover, the banknote-retrieving pusher 12312 switches states by flipping, and its contact with the banknote handle 3000 is a planar abutment and push, rather than clamping or gripping. During the push, the banknote handle 3000 experiences uniform force, preventing the banknote handle from becoming scattered or the straps from loosening, thus ensuring the integrity and quality of the banknote product and the handover.

[0074] Preferably, in one embodiment, the banknote dispensing pusher drive 12313 is a linearly telescopic drive, and the running direction of the banknote dispensing pusher drive 12313 is along the length direction of the banknote dispensing frame 121. The output end of the banknote dispensing pusher drive 12313 is connected to the rotating shaft 12314 via a connecting rod 12315, which drives the connecting rod 12315 to rotate the rotating shaft 12314, thereby driving the banknote dispensing pusher 12312 to flip. In this embodiment, arranging the banknote dispensing pusher drive 12313 along the length direction of the banknote dispensing frame 121, consistent with the running direction of the banknote dispensing linear drive unit 1232, can fully utilize the longitudinal space inside the banknote dispensing frame 121, avoid adding extra structures in the width or height direction of the banknote dispensing frame 121, and make the overall layout more compact and regular, which is conducive to the miniaturization and lightweight design of the equipment. The linear telescopic motion is converted into the rotational motion of the rotating shaft 12314 by the connecting rod 12315. The transmission path is short, there are fewer intermediate links, the mechanical structure is simple and reliable, and the failure rate is low. At the same time, the action response of the banknote pusher drive component 12313 is direct and rapid, which can quickly complete the flipping state switching of the banknote pusher 12312, improving the cycle efficiency of the banknote retrieval action.

[0075] Specifically, in one embodiment, one end of the connecting rod 12315 is hinged to the output end of the banknote dispensing push plate drive 12313, and the other end is connected to the rotating shaft 12314.

[0076] Specifically, in one embodiment, both the banknote dispensing linear drive unit 1232 and the banknote dispensing push plate drive component 12313 are cylinders.

[0077] Preferably, in one embodiment, the banknote conveyor belt assembly 12 further includes a first banknote detection sensor 124. The first banknote detection sensor 124 is mounted on the banknote dispensing frame 121, and its detection area is located in the feeding area of ​​the banknote conveyor belt unit 122. It is used to detect the position of the banknote bundles on the banknote conveyor belt unit 122. Through the setting of the first banknote detection sensor 124, it can detect in real time whether the banknote bundles have successfully entered the banknote conveyor belt unit 122, providing an accurate position signal for the control system. The position signal detected by the first banknote detection sensor 124 can serve as the trigger for the banknote dispensing rotation drive unit 13 to drive the banknote conveyor belt assembly 12 to tilt and reset, making the coordination between the various actuators more precise and orderly, and avoiding mechanical interference or banknote bundle accumulation problems caused by improper timing. Furthermore, during the cash dispensing process, if a cash dispensing failure occurs or the cash handle does not fall into the container properly, the first cash dispensing detection sensor 124 can promptly issue an alarm or trigger a retry action, effectively avoiding problems such as idle running and missed feeding caused by missing detection, thus improving the reliability of equipment operation. Moreover, in this embodiment, the first cash dispensing detection sensor 124 is directly mounted on the cash dispensing frame 121, tilting or resetting together with the cash dispensing belt conveyor assembly 12. Regardless of the orientation of the conveying surface, the detection area always remains relatively fixed with respect to the feeding position, ensuring the accuracy and consistency of the arrival detection, unaffected by the tilting motion of the cash dispensing frame 121.

[0078] Specifically, in one embodiment, the first banknote detection sensor 124 is a non-contact positioning detection sensor. This non-contact detection method avoids any physical contact with the banknote handle during the detection process, preventing squeezing, scratching, or pushing. This avoids problems such as banknote handle displacement, loosening, or strap detachment caused by the detection action itself, effectively ensuring the integrity and appearance quality of the banknotes. More specifically, in one embodiment, the first banknote detection sensor 124 can be a photoelectric sensor, utilizing the emission and reception of a light beam to achieve non-contact detection. With an extremely short response time, it can complete positioning identification and output a signal the instant the banknote handle enters the detection area, providing real-time status feedback to the control system and meeting the detection speed requirements of high-speed banknote delivery cycles.

[0079] Preferably, in one embodiment, the banknote dispensing base 11 is provided with a banknote dispensing hinge seat 111 and a banknote dispensing support seat 112. One side of the bottom of the banknote dispensing frame 121 is hinged to the banknote dispensing hinge seat 111 via the hinge shaft 14, and the other side of the bottom of the banknote dispensing frame 121 is detachably supported on the banknote dispensing support seat 112. In this embodiment, the banknote dispensing hinge seat 111 and the banknote dispensing support seat 112 serve as two independent mounting bases, which can be machined or fixed on the banknote dispensing base 11 respectively, reducing the machining difficulty and assembly complexity of the banknote dispensing base 11.

[0080] Preferably, in one embodiment, the banknote dispensing rotation drive unit 13 is located below the banknote dispensing belt conveyor assembly 12, and the banknote dispensing rotation drive unit 13 is a drive unit capable of linear telescopic movement; a banknote dispensing connecting plate 1211 is provided in the central area of ​​the bottom of the banknote dispensing frame 121, and the output end of the banknote dispensing rotation drive unit 13 is hinged to the banknote dispensing connecting plate 1211. In this embodiment, placing the banknote dispensing rotation drive unit 13 below the banknote dispensing belt conveyor assembly 12 makes full use of the longitudinal space between the banknote dispensing frame 121 and the banknote dispensing base 11, without occupying the operating space on both sides and above the equipment, making the overall layout more compact and orderly. The banknote dispensing connecting plate 1211 is located in the central area at the bottom of the banknote dispensing frame 121. The thrust of the banknote dispensing rotation drive unit 13 acts on the middle part of the width and length of the banknote dispensing frame 121, so that the banknote dispensing frame 121 is subjected to balanced force at both ends during tilting, avoiding the twisting or tilting of the banknote dispensing frame 121 caused by the offset of the force application point, and ensuring the stability and synchronicity of the tilting action.

[0081] Preferably, in one embodiment, multiple sets (at least two sets) of the banknote conveying belt assemblies 12 are arranged side by side, with each set of banknote conveying belt assemblies 12 arranged parallel and spaced apart on the banknote collection base 11, and each set of banknote conveying belt assemblies 12 is correspondingly connected to a banknote collection rotation drive unit 13. In this embodiment, multiple sets of banknote conveying belt assemblies 12 can work simultaneously or independently, realizing parallel reception and transportation of banknote bundles in multiple channels, which significantly improves the processing capacity of the banknote collection mechanism and meets the high throughput and high cycle time requirements of banknote processing equipment. It is especially suitable for sorting and bundling equipment 2000 with multiple banknote outlets or large-volume continuous processing scenarios.

[0082] Specifically, in one embodiment, the banknote conveying unit 122 includes a banknote dispensing drive source 1221 and a banknote dispensing conveyor belt 1222. The banknote dispensing conveyor belt 1222 includes a drive wheel, a driven wheel, and a conveyor belt. The drive wheel and the driven wheel are rotatably mounted on the banknote dispensing frame 121, and the driven wheel is spaced apart from the drive wheel. The conveyor belt is wound around the drive wheel and the driven wheel. The banknote dispensing drive source 1221 is connected to the drive wheel. Specifically, in one embodiment, the banknote dispensing drive source 1221 is a motor.

[0083] The banknote conveying unit 122 in the banknote dispensing mechanism 10 can operate intermittently. For example, during the banknote dispensing process, the banknote conveying unit 122 does not operate. After the banknote dispensing is completed, the banknote dispensing rotation drive unit 13 drives the banknote conveying assembly 12 to reset, and then the banknote conveying unit 122 starts operating again, thereby ensuring the stability of the conveying process.

[0084] Preferably, in one embodiment, the banknote conveying mechanism 20 adopts a belt conveyor structure to convey banknotes, and the conveyor belt in the banknote conveying mechanism 20 is at least partially inclined upward, so that the height of the banknotes can be increased during the conveying process, and then transferred to the downstream stacking and bundling module 102, so as to cooperate with the subsequent stacking of banknotes by the stacking and bundling module 102.

[0085] Preferably, in one embodiment, multiple sets of the banknote conveying mechanism 20 can be arranged side by side, so as to cooperate with multiple sets of the banknote taking mechanism 10 (or multiple sets of the banknote taking belt conveyor assemblies 12) upstream.

[0086] Please refer to the following: Figure 13 and Figure 14 Preferably, in one embodiment, the palletizing and bundling module 102 includes a banknote handle conveying mechanism 30, a palletizing mechanism 40, a bundling mechanism 50, and a coding mechanism 60. The banknote handle conveying mechanism 30 is located on the banknote dispensing side of the banknote handle module 101 (specifically, the banknote handle conveying mechanism 20). The palletizing mechanism 40 is located on the banknote dispensing side of the banknote handle conveying mechanism 30 and is used to stack banknote handles into banknote stacks. The bundling mechanism 50 is located on the banknote dispensing side of the palletizing mechanism 40 and is used to bundle and fix the banknote stacks. The coding mechanism 60 is located on the banknote dispensing side of the bundling mechanism 50 and is used to print information codes on the banknote stacks.

[0087] Please refer to the following: Figures 15 to 18Preferably, in one embodiment, the banknote bundle conveying mechanism 30 includes a banknote bundle conveying frame 31, a banknote bundle conveying assembly 32, a banknote bundle guide plate 33, and a banknote bundle adjusting assembly 34. The banknote bundle conveying assembly 32 is disposed on the banknote bundle conveying frame 31 and is used to convey banknote bundles 3000 along the length direction of the banknote bundle conveying frame 31. The length direction, width direction, and height direction of the banknote bundle conveying frame 31 are three mutually perpendicular directions, for example, as shown in the figure. Figure 15 As shown, the length direction, width direction, and height direction are the directions indicated by X4, Y4, and Z4, respectively.

[0088] The banknote guide plate 33 is located above the banknote transfer and conveying assembly 32 and is used to guide the banknote bundles 3000 conveyed on the banknote transfer and conveying assembly 32. Two banknote guide plates 33 are provided, spaced apart from each other along the width direction of the banknote transfer and conveying frame 31 to form a banknote transfer channel 35 through which the banknote bundles 3000 pass. The width of the banknote transfer channel 35 is adapted to the length of the banknote bundles 3000 to be conveyed, so that when the banknote bundles 3000 conveyed by the banknote transfer and conveying assembly 32 deviate, the banknote guide plates 33 can block and guide them, thus ensuring that the banknote bundles 3000 finally output by the banknote transfer and conveying mechanism 30 are not deviated.

[0089] The banknote handle adjustment component 34 is disposed on the banknote handle transfer conveyor frame 31, and at least one banknote handle guide plate 33 is connected to the output end of the banknote handle adjustment component 34; the banknote handle adjustment component 34 is used to drive the banknote handle guide plate 33 to move along the width direction of the banknote handle transfer conveyor frame 31, so as to adjust the interval distance between the two banknote handle guide plates 33.

[0090] Understandably, while existing conveying mechanisms also use guide plates to correct skewed banknote bundles, these guide plates can only accommodate banknote bundles of a single size. When different banknote bundles of different sizes need to be processed due to changes in banknote denominations, the equipment must be shut down and the guide plate position manually adjusted or replaced to adapt, which seriously affects production efficiency.

[0091] The banknote bundle conveying mechanism 30 provided in this embodiment, by setting up a banknote bundle adjustment component 34 and connecting at least one banknote bundle guide plate 33 to the output end of the banknote bundle adjustment component 34, allows the banknote bundle 3000 to be conveyed to change in size due to changes in banknote denomination when the size of the banknote bundle 3000 to be conveyed changes. The banknote bundle adjustment component 34 can drive the banknote bundle guide plate 33 to move along the width direction of the banknote bundle conveying frame 31, thereby flexibly adjusting the spacing between the two banknote bundle guide plates 33, i.e., changing the width of the banknote bundle conveying channel 35. This adjustment process does not require shutting down the equipment or manually disassembling or replacing the guide plates, achieving rapid online adjustment of the width of the banknote bundle conveying channel 35. This effectively improves production efficiency, reduces time loss and labor costs caused by downtime adjustment, and ensures the continuity and stability of banknote bundle 3000 conveying.

[0092] Preferably, in one embodiment, both banknote handle guide plates 33 are connected to the output end of the banknote handle adjustment component 34. That is, when the banknote handle adjustment component 34 is running, it can simultaneously drive both banknote handle guide plates 33 to move in the width direction. By connecting both banknote handle guide plates 33 to the output end of the banknote handle adjustment component 34, synchronous and coordinated adjustment of the two banknote handle guide plates 33 can be achieved. When the size of the banknote handle 3000 changes, the banknote handle adjustment component 34 can simultaneously drive the two banknote handle guide plates 33 to move towards or away from each other in the width direction, thereby quickly adjusting the width of the banknote handle conveying channel 35 while keeping the center of the banknote handle conveying channel 35 constant. This not only further improves adjustment efficiency but also ensures that the banknote handle 3000 remains centered during conveying, which is beneficial for the accurate conveying of the banknote handle 3000 and the neatness of subsequent stacking, improving the overall stability and automation of the operation.

[0093] Preferably, in one embodiment, the banknote adjustment assembly 34 includes a banknote adjustment mounting base 341, a banknote adjustment power source 342, and a banknote adjustment transmission structure 343. The banknote adjustment mounting base 341 is connected to the banknote transfer conveyor frame 31, and the banknote adjustment power source 342 is mounted on the banknote adjustment mounting base 341. The banknote adjustment transmission structure 343 has one input end and two output ends, and the input end of the banknote adjustment transmission structure 343 is connected to the output end of the banknote adjustment power source 342. Two banknote guide plates 33 are disposed at the two output ends of the banknote adjustment transmission structure 343. The banknote adjustment power source 342 is used to drive the banknote adjustment transmission structure 343 to operate, so that the two banknote guide plates 33 are either opposite to each other or close to each other along the width direction of the banknote transfer conveyor frame 31. In other words, in this embodiment, the banknote handle adjustment component 34 is powered by the banknote handle adjustment power source 342 to drive the banknote handle adjustment transmission structure 343. The banknote handle adjustment transmission structure 343 transmits power to move the two banknote handle guide plates 33 along the width direction of the banknote handle conveying frame 31, thereby achieving automated adjustment of the distance between the two banknote handle guide plates 33. This structure can drive the two banknote handle guide plates 33 to move synchronously and symmetrically with a single power source. The transmission path is clear, and the structure is compact. While ensuring that the center position of the banknote handle conveying channel 35 remains unchanged, it can quickly and accurately adapt to banknote handles 3000 of different sizes, significantly improving the convenience of adjustment and production efficiency, and reducing manual intervention.

[0094] Specifically, in one embodiment, the banknote handle adjustment power source 342 and the banknote handle adjustment transmission structure 343 are disposed above the banknote handle transmission and conveying assembly 32.

[0095] Preferably, in one embodiment, the banknote handle adjustment transmission structure 343 includes a banknote handle adjustment transmission lever 3431 and a banknote handle adjustment transmission unit 3432. The center of the banknote handle adjustment transmission lever 3431 is connected to the output shaft of the banknote handle adjustment power source 342. Two sets of banknote handle adjustment transmission units 3432 are provided; one set is connected to one end of the banknote handle adjustment transmission lever 3431, and the other set is connected to the other end of the banknote handle adjustment transmission lever 3431. One banknote handle guide plate 33 is connected to one set of banknote handle adjustment transmission units 3432, and the other set is connected to the other set of banknote handle adjustment transmission units 3432. The banknote handle adjustment power source 342 drives the banknote handle adjustment transmission swing rod 3431 to swing around the center as a pivot point, thereby driving the two sets of banknote handle adjustment transmission units 3432 to operate, so that the two banknote handle guide plates 33 move away from each other or closer to each other along the width direction of the banknote handle transfer conveyor frame 31. By using the banknote handle adjustment transmission swing rod 3431 in conjunction with two symmetrically arranged banknote handle adjustment transmission units 3432, the banknote handle adjustment power source 342 drives the banknote handle adjustment transmission swing rod 3431 to swing around the center, which can drive the two banknote handle guide plates 33 to synchronously move closer or further apart at the same distance. This structure converts a single rotational power into symmetrical linear motion of the two banknote handle guide plates 33, resulting in a short transmission path, compact structure, and good motion synchronization. It ensures that the center of the banknote handle conveying channel 35 remains unchanged during the adjustment process, resulting in high adjustment accuracy and fast response. It also ensures that the banknote handle 3000 remains centered during conveying, which is beneficial to the neatness of subsequent stacking, while reducing manufacturing and control costs.

[0096] Specifically, in one embodiment, the banknote handle adjustment power source 342 is an electric motor. More specifically, in one embodiment, along the width direction of the banknote handle conveying frame 31, the output shaft of the banknote handle adjustment power source 342 is located above the central region of the banknote handle conveying assembly 32.

[0097] Preferably, in one embodiment, the banknote handle adjustment transmission unit 3432 includes a banknote handle adjustment connecting rod 34321 and a banknote handle adjustment slider 34322. One end of the banknote handle adjustment connecting rod 34321 is hinged to the banknote handle adjustment transmission swing rod 3431, and the other end of the banknote handle adjustment connecting rod 34321 is hinged to the banknote handle adjustment slider 34322. The banknote handle adjustment slider 34322 is slidably disposed on the banknote handle adjustment mounting base 341, and the sliding direction of the banknote handle adjustment slider 34322 is along the width direction of the banknote handle transfer conveyor frame 31. The banknote handle guide plate 33 is connected to the banknote handle adjustment slider 34322. In this embodiment, the banknote handle adjustment transmission unit 3432, through the hinged connection between the banknote handle adjustment connecting rod 34321 and the banknote handle adjustment slider 34322, converts the swing of the banknote handle adjustment transmission swing rod 3431 into the linear sliding of the banknote handle adjustment slider 34322 along the width direction of the banknote handle transfer conveyor frame 31, thereby driving the banknote handle guide plate 33 to move smoothly. This linkage slider structure ensures reliable motion transmission, a simple and compact structure, and guarantees that the banknote handle guide plate 33 maintains a parallel and stable posture throughout the adjustment process. It offers high adjustment accuracy, fast response, and ease of processing and assembly, effectively reducing equipment costs and maintenance difficulty.

[0098] Preferably, in one embodiment, the banknote handle adjusting mounting base 341 is provided with a banknote handle adjusting guide rod 3411, which is arranged along the width direction of the banknote handle conveying frame 31. Specifically, the banknote handle adjusting slider 34322 is slidably mounted on the banknote handle adjusting guide rod 3411. By providing the banknote handle adjusting guide rod 3411 extending along the width direction of the banknote handle conveying frame 31 on the banknote handle adjusting mounting base 341, and slidably mounting the banknote handle adjusting slider 34322 on the banknote handle adjusting guide rod 3411, precise linear guidance is provided for the reciprocating movement of the banknote handle adjusting slider 34322. This structure can effectively limit the swaying and shaking of the banknote handle adjustment slider 34322 during the movement, ensuring that the banknote handle guide plate 33 always moves smoothly in the predetermined direction, further improving the accuracy and reliability of the width adjustment of the banknote handle conveying channel 35, and also enhancing the overall structural rigidity and operational stability of the banknote handle adjustment assembly 34.

[0099] Preferably, in one embodiment, the banknote handle adjustment component 34 further includes a banknote handle adjustment position detection sensor 344, which is used to detect the position of the banknote handle adjustment slider 34322. By setting the banknote handle adjustment position detection sensor 344 to detect the position of the banknote handle adjustment slider 34322 in real time, the actual position information of the banknote handle guide plate 33 can be accurately acquired and fed back. In this way, a closed-loop control can be formed with the control system of the equipment, realizing the automatic and precise adjustment of the width of the banknote handle conveying channel 35, avoiding the errors and time losses caused by manual measurement and repeated debugging, further improving the adjustment efficiency and consistency, and ensuring the stability of banknote handle conveying and subsequent stacking quality.

[0100] Specifically, in one embodiment, the banknote handle adjustment position detection sensor 344 is a non-contact positioning detection sensor. More specifically, in one embodiment, the banknote handle adjustment position detection sensor 344 can be a photoelectric sensor, utilizing the emission and reception of light beams to achieve non-contact detection. Specifically, in one embodiment, a banknote handle adjustment sensing plate 34323 is installed on the banknote handle adjustment slider 34322. The banknote handle adjustment sensing plate 34323 is used to cooperate with the banknote handle adjustment position detection sensor 3444. When the banknote handle adjustment slider 34322 moves, the banknote handle adjustment sensing plate 34323 generates different blocking states on the banknote handle adjustment position detection sensor 3444, thereby realizing the detection and feedback of the position of the banknote handle adjustment slider 34322.

[0101] Preferably, in one embodiment, the banknote guide plate 33 includes a first banknote guide plate 331 and a second banknote guide plate 332 connected to each other. Along the conveying direction of the banknote transfer and conveying assembly 32 ( Figure 15As shown in direction F), the first banknote guide plate 331 and the second banknote guide plate 332 are arranged sequentially. Along the conveying direction of the banknote transfer and conveying assembly 32, the first banknote guide plate 331 is inclined inwards. That is, the first banknote guide plate 331 is inclined at a certain angle relative to the conveying direction of the banknote transfer and conveying assembly 32, and this inclination is inwards, not outwards, so that an inlet 351 that gradually narrows along the conveying direction can be formed between the first banknote guide plates 331 of the two banknote guide plates 33. The second banknote guide plate 332 is arranged parallel to the conveying direction of the banknote transfer and conveying assembly 32. In this embodiment, when the banknote 3000 deviates during conveying and enters the banknote conveying channel 35, the banknote 3000 will first contact the first banknote guide plate 331. Because the banknote handle guide first plate 331 is tilted inward, the distance between the two banknote handle guide first plates 331 gradually decreases from front to back. As the banknote handle 3000 moves forward with the banknote handle conveying assembly 32, its tilted end is gradually corrected by the tilted banknote handle guide first plates 331, thus initially correcting the posture of the banknote handle 3000. This gradual correction process avoids direct rigid collisions or jamming of the banknote handle 3000, effectively protecting its integrity. Subsequently, the initially corrected banknote handle 3000 continues to be conveyed forward, entering the area between the two banknote handle guide second plates 332. The banknote handle guide second plates 332 are set parallel to the conveying direction of the banknote handle conveying assembly 32, providing precise straight-line guidance for the banknote handle 3000, ensuring that the banknote handle 3000 maintains a regular conveying posture before leaving the banknote handle conveying channel 35, and ultimately ensuring that the banknote handle 3000 enters the downstream palletizing equipment without tilting. This two-stage guiding structure combines inclined induction with parallel precision limiting, ensuring both smooth guidance and final guiding accuracy, significantly improving the guiding effect of the banknote conveying channel 35 and the conveying quality of the banknote 3000.

[0102] Preferably, in one embodiment, the banknote transfer conveying assembly 32 includes a banknote transfer support plate 321 and a banknote transfer belt conveying unit 322. The banknote transfer support plate 321 is disposed on the banknote transfer conveying frame 31 and located above the banknote transfer belt conveying unit 322. The banknote transfer support plate 321 is used to support the banknote bundles 3000. Two banknote transfer support plates 321 are provided, and the two banknote transfer support plates 321 are spaced apart from each other along the length direction of the banknote transfer conveying frame 31. The banknote handle transfer belt conveyor unit 322 is mounted on the banknote handle transfer conveyor frame 31, and a pusher plate is installed on the banknote handle transfer conveyor belt 3221 of the banknote handle transfer belt conveyor unit 322. The width of the pusher plate is smaller than the distance between the two banknote handle transfer support plates 321. The banknote handle transfer belt conveyor unit 322 pushes the banknote handles 3000 on the banknote handle transfer support plates 321 through the pusher plate to transport the banknote handles 3000 along the length direction of the banknote handle transfer conveyor frame 31. By adopting a conveying structure in which the support plates and the belt conveyor unit cooperate, the banknote handles are stably supported on the support plates. The pusher plate, driven by the belt conveyor unit, extends out from the gap between the two support plates and pushes the banknote handles to move along the length direction. In this embodiment, the pushing power and the supporting function are separated. The pusher plate follows the banknote handle transfer belt conveyor unit 322 below in a cyclical operation, resulting in a compact overall structure and reasonable layout. In addition, the pusher plate method can make the banknote handle 3000 evenly stressed and transported smoothly, avoiding clamping damage to the banknote handle 3000 and ensuring the integrity of the banknote handle 3000 and the reliability of transport.

[0103] It should be noted that in the above-mentioned structure that uses a pusher plate to push the banknote bundle 3000, the banknote bundle transfer belt conveyor unit 322 can operate intermittently. Only one pusher plate is installed on the banknote bundle transfer conveyor belt 3221 of the banknote bundle transfer belt conveyor unit 322. When a banknote bundle 3000 falls onto the banknote bundle transfer support plate 321, the banknote bundle transfer belt conveyor unit 322 runs one cycle, and the pusher plate goes around once, accurately pushing the banknote bundle 3000 to the downstream palletizing equipment. Then it stops and waits for the next banknote bundle 3000, thereby ensuring the accuracy and controllability of the conveying cycle.

[0104] Specifically, in one embodiment, the banknote transfer belt conveyor unit 322 includes a banknote transfer drive source 3222 and a conveyor belt assembly. The conveyor belt assembly includes a drive wheel, a driven wheel, and the banknote transfer conveyor belt 3221. The drive wheel and driven wheel are rotatably mounted on the banknote transfer conveyor frame 31, with the driven wheel spaced apart from the drive wheel. The banknote transfer conveyor belt 3221 is wound around the drive wheel and driven wheel. The banknote transfer drive source 3222 is connected to the drive wheel. Specifically, in one embodiment, the banknote transfer drive source 3222 is a motor.

[0105] Preferably, in one embodiment, the banknote transfer conveying mechanism 30 further includes a first banknote transfer detection sensor 36 and a second banknote transfer detection sensor 37. The first banknote transfer detection sensor 36 is mounted on the banknote transfer conveyor frame 31 and is used to detect the positioning of the banknotes 3000 on the banknote transfer support plate 321. The second banknote transfer detection sensor 37 is mounted on the banknote transfer conveyor frame 31 and is used to detect the position of the push plate on the banknote transfer conveyor belt 3221.

[0106] Specifically, the first detection sensor 36 for banknote transfer is mounted on the banknote transfer conveyor frame 31 and corresponds to the loading area of ​​the banknote transfer support plate 321. It is used to detect whether a banknote 3000 has reached a preset position on the banknote transfer support plate 321, and to provide a banknote arrival signal. The second detection sensor 37 for banknote transfer is mounted on the banknote transfer conveyor frame 31 and corresponds to the movement path of the banknote transfer conveyor belt 3221. It is used to detect the real-time position of the push plate on the banknote transfer conveyor belt 3221, especially whether the push plate has returned to the initial standby position.

[0107] Through the coordinated detection and feedback of the first detection sensor 36 and the second detection sensor 37 for banknote transfer, the automated and precise positioning control of the banknote transfer of the 3000 is realized, further improving production efficiency and equipment reliability.

[0108] For example, in actual operation, when the first detection sensor 36 detects that the banknote bundle 3000 has landed on the banknote bundle transfer support plate 321, the control system receives the positioning signal and immediately starts the banknote bundle transfer drive source 3222, driving the banknote bundle transfer conveyor belt 3221 to run. The pusher plate extends upward from the gap between the two banknote bundle transfer support plates 321 and pushes the banknote bundle 3000 forward. After the pusher plate pushes the banknote bundle 3000 out of the banknote bundle transfer support plate 321 and sends it into the palletizing equipment, it continues to circle around the banknote bundle transfer conveyor belt 3221. When the second detection sensor 37 detects that the pusher plate has returned to the starting position, the control system controls the drive source to stop, completing one conveying cycle and waiting for the next banknote bundle to land. Alternatively, during actual operation, the control system outputs a command to control the banknote conveyor belt unit 322 to run one cycle each time. After one cycle is completed, the pusher returns to the origin, while the second banknote conveyor detection sensor 37 detects the pusher at the origin. Only when both the first banknote conveyor detection sensor 36 and the second banknote conveyor detection sensor 37 detect the arrival signal will the control system control the banknote conveyor belt unit 322 to run one cycle again, thereby ensuring the reliable delivery of the banknote bundle 3000.

[0109] Specifically, in one embodiment, both the first banknote handle transfer detection sensor 36 and the second banknote handle transfer detection sensor 37 are non-contact positioning detection sensors. More specifically, in one embodiment, both the first banknote handle transfer detection sensor 36 and the second banknote handle transfer detection sensor 37 can be photoelectric sensors, utilizing the emission and reception of light beams to achieve non-contact detection.

[0110] Please continue reading. Figure 13 , Figure 14 as well as Figures 19 to 22 Preferably, in one embodiment, the palletizing and bundling module 102 further includes a banknote pushing mechanism. When the palletizing mechanism 40 receives banknote bundles from the banknote transfer and conveying mechanism 30 and stacks them to form a banknote stack (e.g., stacking 10 banknote bundles to form a banknote stack), the pusher plate of the banknote pushing mechanism extends, thereby pushing the banknote stack from the palletizing mechanism 40 into the bundling mechanism 50. During the process of the banknote pushing mechanism pushing the banknote stack into the bundling mechanism 50, the banknote stack is surrounded by a packaging film (PE film) in the bundling mechanism 50. Then, the sealing structure in the bundling mechanism 50 cuts and heat-seals the packaging film, thereby securing the banknote stack with the packaging film. Next, the banknote pushing mechanism continues to push the banknote stack downstream, allowing it to enter the coding mechanism 60, where the coding mechanism 60 prints an information code (QR code) on the packaging film of the banknote stack. After printing, the banknote pushing mechanism then pushes the banknote stack downstream again.

[0111] Preferably, in one embodiment, the banknote dispensing side of the coding mechanism 60 is provided with a banknote stack flipping and conveying mechanism 70. The banknote stack flipping and conveying mechanism 70 is mainly used to convey banknote stacks 4000 and flip them during the conveying process. It is understood that the banknote stacks 4000 formed by the stacking mechanism 40 are generally in an upright state. During conveying, the center of gravity of the banknote stacks 4000 is too high, posing a risk of tipping over in subsequent conveying processes. Furthermore, the upright state of the banknote stacks 4000 is not conducive to the setting of mechanisms in subsequent modules. The banknote stack flipping and conveying mechanism 70 can flip the banknote stacks 4000 from an upright state to a horizontal state, thereby better preventing the banknote stacks 4000 from tipping over during subsequent conveying, improving the stability of the conveying process, and also facilitating the setting of mechanisms in subsequent modules.

[0112] Preferably, in one embodiment, the banknote stack flipping and conveying mechanism 70 is mounted on a mounting frame 80. The banknote stack flipping and conveying mechanism 70 includes a flipping plate 72 and a flipping mechanism belt conveyor assembly 73. The flipping plate 72 is used to support the banknote stack 4000, and the flipping plate 72 is rotatably arranged on the mounting frame 80. The flipping axis 721 of the flipping plate 72 is arranged along the width direction of the mounting frame 80. The length direction, width direction, and height direction of the mounting frame 80 are three mutually perpendicular directions, for example, as shown in the figure. Figure 13 As shown, the length, width, and height directions are X3, Y3, and Z3, respectively. Since the flipping plate 72 is used to receive the banknote stack 4000 and can also flip itself, when the banknote stack 4000 is placed in the area of ​​the flipping plate 72, the flipping plate 72 itself can cause the banknote stack 4000 to flip synchronously, thereby changing the posture of the banknote stack 4000.

[0113] The flipping mechanism belt conveyor assembly 73 is mounted on the mounting frame 80. The flipping mechanism belt conveyor assembly 73 includes a flipping mechanism drive unit 731 and a flipping mechanism belt conveyor unit 732. The flipping mechanism drive unit 731 is connected to the flipping mechanism belt conveyor unit 732 and drives the flipping mechanism belt conveyor unit 732. The flipping mechanism belt conveyor unit 732 is used to convey the banknote stack 4000 along the length of the mounting frame 80. Two flipping mechanism belt conveyor units 732 are provided, spaced apart from each other along the width of the mounting frame 80. The flipping plate 72 can flip into the spacer area 733 between the two flipping mechanism belt conveyor units 732 to transfer the flipped banknote stack 4000 onto the flipping mechanism belt conveyor unit 732.

[0114] The required flipping angle of the flipping plate 72 can be selected according to actual needs. For example, in one embodiment, the flipping plate 72 can flip 90°. When the upright stack of banknotes 4000 is fed into the area where the flipping plate 72 is located, the flipping plate 72 flips 90°, thereby flipping the upright stack of banknotes 4000 into a horizontal position. The width of the stack of banknotes 4000 is greater than the width of the flipping plate 72, so that both sides of the stack of banknotes 4000 will be exposed outside the flipping plate 72. After the flipping plate 72 is flipped into the interval area 733, the corresponding structure on the flipping plate 72 will begin to be lower than the conveying surface height of the flipping mechanism belt conveyor unit 732. At this time, the exposed areas on both sides of the stack of banknotes 4000 are supported by the two flipping mechanism belt conveyor units 732, thereby completing the flipping and transfer of the stack of banknotes 4000 between the flipping plate 72 and the flipping mechanism belt conveyor unit 732.

[0115] Understandably, existing conveying mechanisms typically only have the function of conveying simple stacks of banknotes and cannot meet the requirements for flipping and conveying stacks of banknotes.

[0116] The banknote stack flipping and conveying mechanism 70 provided in this embodiment, by setting up the flipping plate 72 and two mutually spaced flipping mechanism belt conveyor units 732, allows the banknote stack 4000 to be flipped after being driven by the flipping plate 72 into the interval area 733 between the two flipping mechanism belt conveyor units 732, thereby smoothly transferring the flipped banknote stack 4000 onto the flipping mechanism belt conveyor unit 732 for continued conveying. This mechanism realizes online flipping of the banknote stack 4000 during the conveying process, making up for the shortcomings of existing conveying mechanisms that cannot meet the flipping and conveying requirements of the banknote stack 4000. Moreover, the overall structure is compact and the operation is smooth, which is conducive to improving the automation level and efficiency of the banknote stack 4000 packaging and processing operation.

[0117] Preferably, in one embodiment, the banknote stack flipping and conveying mechanism 70 further includes a transverse conveying component 74. The transverse conveying component 74 is used to receive the banknote stack 4000 delivered by the belt conveyor unit 732 of the flipping mechanism, and is used to convey the banknote stack 4000 along the width direction of the mounting frame 80. That is, in this embodiment, the banknote stack flipping and conveying mechanism 70 can not only flip the banknote stack 4000 during the conveying process, but also change the conveying direction of the banknote stack 4000. By adding the transverse conveying component 74, the banknote stack flipping and conveying mechanism 70 can not only achieve online flipping of the banknote stack 4000, but also change the conveying direction of the banknote stack 4000, changing the conveying of the banknote stack 4000 from along the length direction of the mounting frame 80 to along the width direction of the mounting frame 80. This further improves the functional integration of the mechanism, enabling it to more flexibly adapt to downstream equipment with different layouts, reduce equipment space occupation, and improve the automation and adaptability of the banknote stack 4000 processing flow.

[0118] Preferably, in one embodiment, the flipping mechanism belt conveyor assembly 73 is vertically and flexibly mounted on the mounting frame 80. When the flipping mechanism belt conveyor assembly 73 is in the raised state, it docks with the flipping plate 72 to receive the banknote stack 4000 flipped and conveyed by the flipping plate 72; when the flipping mechanism belt conveyor assembly 73 is in the lowered state, it docks with the transverse conveyor assembly 74 to feed the banknote stack 4000 into the transverse conveyor assembly 74. In this embodiment, the operating principle of the banknote stack flipping and conveying mechanism 70 is as follows: When the banknote stack 4000 is fed into the flipping plate 72, the flipping mechanism belt conveyor assembly 73 is in a raised state. After the flipping plate 72 flips and falls into the interval area 733, the two raised flipping mechanism belt conveyor units 732 will receive the flipped banknote stack 4000. Then, the flipping mechanism belt conveyor units 732 will transport the banknote stack 4000 a certain distance and begin to descend. When the flipping mechanism belt conveyor units 732 descend to a certain height, the banknote stack 4000 will be received by the transverse conveyor assembly 74, and then the transverse conveyor assembly 74 will transport the banknote stack 4000 to the subsequent equipment. Then, the flipping mechanism belt conveyor assembly 73 will continue to rise, repeating the above process. By setting the flipping mechanism belt conveyor assembly 73 as a liftable structure, it can dock with the flipping plate 72 to pick up the banknote stack 4000 in the raised state, and dock with the transverse conveyor assembly 74 to transfer the banknote stack 4000 in the descending state. This lifting and handover method enables the orderly connection between the flipping plate 72, the flipping mechanism belt conveyor component 73, and the transverse conveyor component 74. The entire process of the banknote stack 4000 from flipping and longitudinal conveying to transverse conveying is completed continuously and automatically. Each action does not interfere with the others, and the handover process is stable and reliable, further improving the automation level and work efficiency of the mechanism.

[0119] It should be noted that the mounting frame 80 may include multiple different units, and the flip plate 72 and the flip mechanism belt conveyor assembly 73 may be installed on different units of the mounting frame 80.

[0120] Preferably, in one embodiment, the transverse conveying component 74 is located below the discharge end of the flipping mechanism belt conveyor component 73, and the transverse conveying component 74 is provided with clearance grooves 741 corresponding to the two flipping mechanism belt conveyor units 732. The clearance grooves 741 are used to avoid the flipping mechanism belt conveyor units 732. By placing the transverse conveying component 74 below the discharge end of the flipping mechanism belt conveyor component 73 and providing clearance grooves 741 at the corresponding flipping mechanism belt conveyor units 732, when the flipping mechanism belt conveyor component 73 descends, the flipping mechanism belt conveyor units 732 can smoothly enter the clearance grooves 741, avoiding interference with the transverse conveying component 74. This ensures a reliable transfer of the banknote stack 4000 from the flipping mechanism belt conveyor component 73 to the transverse conveying component 74, and also makes the overall structure compact and space utilization efficient.

[0121] Specifically, in one embodiment, a lifting drive unit 75 is provided at the bottom of the belt conveyor assembly 73 of the flipping mechanism, and the lifting drive unit 75 can be a cylinder. Using a cylinder as the lifting drive unit 75 has a simple structure, rapid response, low cost, and convenient control, and can stably realize the switching between the lifting receiving state and the lowering material transfer state of the belt conveyor assembly 73 of the flipping mechanism, ensuring the continuous and efficient operation of the banknote stack flipping conveyor mechanism 70.

[0122] Specifically, in one embodiment, the lateral conveying assembly 74 adopts a belt conveying structure, consisting of a conveyor belt and a drive component that drives its operation, so as to realize the lateral conveying of the banknote stack 4000.

[0123] Preferably, in one embodiment, a flipping connecting rod 722 is further included, through which the flipping plate 72 is connected to the flipping shaft 721. The flipping connecting rod 722 is arranged perpendicular to the axial direction of the flipping shaft 721, with one end connected to the flipping shaft 721 and the other end connected to the flipping plate 72. By providing the flipping connecting rod 722 perpendicular to the axial direction of the flipping shaft 721, the flipping plate 72 is connected to the flipping shaft 721, allowing the rotational movement of the flipping shaft 721 to be reliably transmitted to the flipping plate 72 via the flipping connecting rod 722. This connection method has a simple structure and stable transmission. Furthermore, the flipping connecting rod 722 provides a certain distance between the flipping plate 72 and the flipping shaft 721, facilitating the flipping plate 72 to avoid surrounding components during the flipping process and ensuring smooth, interference-free flipping action. In addition, due to the setting of the flipping connecting rod 722, the flipping plate 72 can achieve a wider range of flipping movement during the flipping process, which allows the flipping mechanism belt conveyor assembly 73 to be arranged in a more distant position, which is beneficial for the flipping mechanism belt conveyor assembly 73 to avoid surrounding components.

[0124] Preferably, in one embodiment, the flipping plate 72 includes a first flipping plate body 723 and a second flipping plate body 724 that are perpendicular to each other. The second flipping plate body 724 is connected to the tail end of the first flipping plate body 723, wherein the tail end and the head end of the first flipping plate body 723 refer to two opposite ends on the first flipping plate body 723. When the flipping plate 72 is flipped, it flips into the interval region 733 of the two flipping mechanism belt conveyor units 732 through the second flipping plate body 724. That is, in this embodiment, the flipping plate 72 has an overall "L" shaped structure. When the flipping plate 72 flips, the bottom surface of the banknote stack 4000 is first supported by the first plate 723 of the flipping plate. During the flipping process, the side surface of the banknote stack 4000 is supported by the second plate 724 of the flipping plate. This better prevents the banknote stack 4000 from falling accidentally during the flipping process and can stably transfer the banknote stack 4000 to the belt conveyor unit 732 of the flipping mechanism.

[0125] Preferably, in one embodiment, the mounting frame 80 is provided with a recessed groove 801 corresponding to the first plate body 723 of the flipping plate. When the flipping plate 72 is not flipped, the first plate body 723 of the flipping plate is embedded in the recessed groove 801. By providing the recessed groove 801 on the mounting frame 80 corresponding to the first plate body 723 of the flipping plate, the first plate body 723 of the flipping plate can be embedded in the recessed groove 801 when the flipping plate 72 is not flipped. This allows the upper surface of the first plate body 723 of the flipping plate to remain flush with or at a lower position with the conveying plane of the mounting frame 80, facilitating the smooth entry of the banknote stack 4000 into the area where the flipping plate 72 is located, avoiding jamming due to height differences. At the same time, the embedded positioning also improves the initial posture accuracy of the flipping plate 72 before flipping, which is beneficial to the stable performance of subsequent flipping actions.

[0126] Preferably, in one embodiment, the first plate 723 of the flipping plate is provided with a guide slope 7231 at its leading end. The guide slope 7231 is used to guide the banknote stack 4000 to slide into the flipping plate 72. By providing the guide slope 7231 at the leading end of the first plate 723 of the flipping plate, the banknote stack 4000 can smoothly slide into the flipping plate 72 along the guide slope 7231, reducing the impact and jamming risk when the banknote stack 4000 enters the flipping station, improving the stability and accuracy of feeding, and providing a guarantee for the reliable execution of subsequent flipping operations.

[0127] Preferably, in one embodiment, the banknote stack flipping conveyor 70 further includes a flipping drive assembly 76, which includes a flipping linear telescopic unit 761 and a flipping drive connecting rod 762. The flipping linear telescopic unit 761 is mounted on the mounting frame 80. One end of the flipping drive connecting rod 762 is connected to the output end of the flipping linear telescopic unit 761, and the other end is connected to the flipping shaft 721, for driving the flipping shaft 721 to rotate under the drive of the flipping linear telescopic unit 761. By setting the flipping drive assembly 76, which consists of the flipping linear telescopic unit 761 and the flipping drive connecting rod 762, the flipping linear telescopic unit 761 provides driving force, which drives the flipping shaft 721 to rotate via the flipping drive connecting rod 762, thereby realizing the automatic flipping of the flipping plate 72. This drive method has a simple and compact structure, direct and reliable transmission, fast response speed, and facilitates precise control of the flipping angle and flipping sequence, ensuring the stability and consistency of the banknote stack 4000 flipping action.

[0128] Specifically, in one embodiment, the flipping linear telescopic unit 761 may be a cylinder.

[0129] Preferably, in one embodiment, the two flipping mechanism belt conveyor units 732 are driven by the same flipping mechanism drive unit 731. By setting the two flipping mechanism belt conveyor units 732 to be driven by the same flipping mechanism drive unit 731, the strict synchronization of the operation of the two flipping mechanism belt conveyor units 732 can be guaranteed, so that the force on both sides of the flipped banknote stack 4000 is uniform and the conveying is smooth. This avoids the problem of banknote stack 4000 tilting or jamming caused by the asynchronous operation of the two flipping mechanism belt conveyor units 732, and further improves the reliability and stability of the flipping and conveying of banknote stack 4000.

[0130] Specifically, in one embodiment, the drive wheels of the two flipping mechanism belt conveyor units 732 can be connected together via a connecting shaft. The flipping mechanism drive unit 731 drives the two flipping mechanism belt conveyor units 732 synchronously through the connecting shaft that drives the drive wheels.

[0131] The flipping plate 72, the flipping mechanism belt conveyor assembly 73, and the transverse conveyor assembly 74 can be operated intermittently to convey the banknote stack 4000. In the intermittent operation mode, the actions of the above-mentioned components are executed sequentially in a predetermined rhythm. First, the flipping plate 72 is in its initial position, receiving the banknote stack 4000 fed in by the upstream equipment. After the banknote stack 4000 arrives, the flipping plate 72 performs a flipping action, flipping the banknote stack 4000 and transferring it to the flipping mechanism belt conveyor assembly 73, which is in a raised state. Then, the flipping mechanism belt conveyor assembly 73 operates, conveying the banknote stack 4000 along the length direction of the mounting frame 80 to above the transverse conveyor assembly 74. Next, the flipping mechanism belt conveyor assembly 73 descends, transferring the banknote stack 4000 to the transverse conveyor assembly 74. The transverse conveyor assembly 74 starts, sending the banknote stack 4000 along the width direction of the mounting frame 80 to the downstream equipment. Finally, the flipping plate 72 resets, the flipping mechanism belt conveyor assembly 73 rises and resets, and all components return to their initial state, waiting for the next banknote stack 4000 to enter, thus repeating the cycle.

[0132] Preferably, in one embodiment, the conveying module 103 is disposed on the banknote dispensing side of the transverse conveying assembly 74. The flipped banknote stack 4000 is fed into the conveying module 103 via the transverse conveying assembly 74, and then conveyed towards the belt conveyor module 200 by the conveying module 103. Both the transverse conveying assembly 74 and the conveying module 103 employ a belt conveyor structure.

[0133] Preferably, in one embodiment, multiple sets of banknote bundle conveying mechanisms 30 are arranged side by side in the palletizing and bundling module 102, and each set of banknote bundle conveying mechanisms 30 is equipped with a palletizing mechanism 40, a bundling mechanism 50, a coding mechanism 60 and a banknote stack flipping conveying mechanism 70 downstream, thereby realizing multi-channel palletizing and other operations on banknote bundles, which significantly improves the processing capacity of the palletizing and bundling module 102 and meets the high throughput and high cycle time operation requirements of banknote processing equipment.

[0134] Please refer to the following: Figures 23 to 26 Preferably, in one embodiment, the mounting frame 80 includes a first frame 81 and a second frame 82, with one side of the first frame 81 open to form a first open side 811. The first open side 811 is the side of the first frame 81 used for discharging material.

[0135] The second frame 82 is rotatably disposed on the first open side 811 of the first frame 81. The second frame 82 can rotate to at least partially cover or expose the first open side 811. That is, the opening size of the first open side 811 and the overall size of the second frame 82 can be selected and designed according to actual needs. The opening size of the first open side 811 can be larger than the overall size of the second frame 82, so that the second frame 82 can partially cover or partially expose the first open side 811; the opening size of the first open side 811 can also be adapted to the overall size of the second frame 82, so that the second frame 82 can completely cover or completely expose the first open side 811.

[0136] The flipping plate 72 is disposed within the first frame 81, and the banknote stacking mechanism 30, the stacking mechanism 40, the bundling mechanism 50, and the coding mechanism 60 are all disposed within the first frame 81. A portion of the flipping mechanism belt conveyor assembly 73 and the transverse conveyor assembly 74 are disposed within the second frame 82. When the second frame 82 covers the first open side 811, the flipping mechanism belt conveyor assembly 73 engages with the flipping plate 72. That is, when the second frame 82 is closed on the first open side 811, the flipping mechanism belt conveyor assembly 73 installed inside it receives the processed banknote stacks 4000 from the first frame 81 and then transfers them downstream.

[0137] Understandably, in existing banknote processing equipment, once the consumables in the internal area are exhausted, the replacement operation becomes very difficult, and the replacement of consumables takes a long time, affecting production efficiency.

[0138] The palletizing and bundling module 102 provided in this embodiment, by setting the mounting frame 80 as a first frame 81 and a rotatable second frame 82, and opening one side of the first frame 81 to form the first open side 811, allows for easy maintenance or replacement of consumables within the first frame 81. Simply rotating the second frame 82 exposes the first open side 811, thus revealing the internal space of the first frame 81. At this time, operators can directly perform consumable replacement (e.g., the packaging film in the bundling mechanism 50 and the printing consumables in the coding mechanism 60) or maintenance operations on the mechanisms installed inside the first frame 81 without first disassembling the cover or other related structural components. This significantly simplifies the maintenance process, shortens consumable replacement time, and effectively improves production efficiency.

[0139] Furthermore, under normal operating conditions, the second frame 82 at least partially shields the first open side 811, ensuring the equipment's safety performance. At this time, the flipping plate 72 located within the first frame 81 precisely connects with the flipping mechanism belt conveyor assembly 73 located within the second frame 82, reliably transferring the processed banknotes from the first frame 81 to the second frame 82. This achieves structural integration of banknote processing and transfer functions, resulting in a compact overall layout and a high degree of automation.

[0140] Preferably, in one embodiment, along the width direction of the mounting frame 80, one side of the second frame 82 is rotatably connected to the first frame 81, and the other side of the second frame 82 is detachably connected to the first frame 81. The rotation axis between the second frame 82 and the first frame 81 is arranged along the height direction of the mounting frame 80, and a roller 84 is provided at the bottom of the second frame 82. By arranging the rotation axis between the second frame 82 and the first frame 81 along the height direction of the frame, the second frame 82 adopts a horizontally side-opening structure. When it is necessary to open the first open side 811 of the first frame 81, the operator only needs to push and pull the second frame 82 horizontally to make it rotate around the vertical axis. The operation action conforms to the natural force application habit of the human body, and the opening and closing process is easy and effortless. Meanwhile, the rollers 84 are provided at the bottom of the second frame 82. The rollers 84 roll along the ground during the rotation of the second frame 82, which not only provides support for the second frame 82, but also plays a guiding role, making the rotation of the second frame 82 more stable and smooth, avoiding the sagging or jamming problems that may occur in structures such as cantilever, and further improving the convenience of operation and the reliability of the structure.

[0141] Preferably, in one embodiment, an unlockable locking mechanism 85 is provided between the first frame 81 and the second frame 82. The locking mechanism 85 is used to lock the position of the second frame 82 when it covers the first open side 811. By providing the unlockable locking mechanism 85 between the first frame 81 and the second frame 82, when the second frame 82 covers the first open side 811, the locking mechanism 85 can firmly lock the second frame 82 in a closed position, preventing displacement of the second frame 82 due to vibration or accidental contact during equipment operation. This ensures that the belt conveyor assembly 73 of the flipping mechanism and the flipping plate 72 maintain a stable docking state, thereby guaranteeing the reliability and continuity of banknote transfer. When maintenance is required inside the first frame 81, simply unlocking the locking mechanism 85 releases the constraint on the second frame 82, making the operation simple and quick without affecting maintenance efficiency.

[0142] In specific implementations, the locking mechanism 85 can adopt various unlockable structural forms. For example, the locking mechanism 85 may include a latch or hook 851 rotatably mounted on the second frame 82, and a corresponding mounting post 852 or slot mounted on the first frame 81. By rotating the latch or hook 851 to engage or disengage with the mounting post 852 or slot, locking and unlocking are achieved. As another example, the locking mechanism 85 may include a retractable pin and a corresponding pin hole. The pin is mounted on one of the first frame 81 and the second frame 82, and the pin hole is correspondingly mounted on the other. Locking and unlocking are achieved through the extension and retraction of the pin. Yet another example, the locking mechanism 85 may also adopt a bolt-type structure, including a sliding locking rod and a lock hole accommodating the end of the locking rod. By pushing or pulling the locking rod, its end is inserted into or withdrawn from the lock hole, completing the locking or unlocking operation.

[0143] Specifically, in one embodiment, the locking mechanism 85 is disposed on the top of the first frame 81 and the second frame 82. More specifically, the locking mechanism 85 is disposed on the top of the first frame 81 and the second frame 82, and on the side away from the axis of rotation of both.

[0144] Preferably, in one embodiment, the first frame 81 is further provided with a position detection mechanism, which is triggered when the second frame 82 covers the first open side 811. By providing the position detection mechanism on the first frame 81, when the second frame 82 rotates to the closed position covering the first open side 811, the position detection mechanism can be automatically triggered, thereby feeding back a signal to the equipment control system that the second frame 82 has reached its position. In this way, the control system only allows the equipment to start operation after confirming that the second frame 82 is closed and that the belt conveyor assembly 73 of the flipping mechanism and the flipping plate 72 have formed a reliable connection, effectively preventing banknote transfer failures or security accidents caused by the second frame 82 not being closed, and improving the safety and reliability of equipment operation.

[0145] In practical implementation, the position detection mechanism can employ contact or non-contact detection elements. For example, the position detection mechanism may include a limit switch or micro switch mounted on the first frame 81. When the second frame 82 rotates to the closed position, the trigger portion on the second frame 82 presses the contact of the limit switch or micro switch, thereby sending a position signal. As another example, the position detection mechanism may include a proximity switch or Hall sensor mounted on the first frame 81, and a corresponding sensing block or magnet mounted on the second frame 82. When the second frame 82 closes, the sensing block or magnet moves closer to the proximity switch or Hall sensor along with the second frame 82, thereby triggering a sensing signal. Yet another example is that the position detection mechanism may also employ a photoelectric sensor, achieving position detection by blocking or reflecting light when the second frame 82 is closed.

[0146] Preferably, in one embodiment, a magnetic positioning structure is further provided between the first frame 81 and the second frame 82. This magnetic positioning structure is used to magnetically connect the second frame 82 and the first frame 81 when the second frame 82 covers the first open side 811. By providing the magnetic positioning structure between the first frame 81 and the second frame 82, when the second frame 82 rotates to the closed position and covers the first open side 811, the magnetic positioning structure can tightly attract the second frame 82 and the first frame 81 through magnetic force. This provides a pre-positioning function before the locking mechanism 85 locks, allowing the second frame 82 to automatically attach into position, facilitating the operator to complete the closing and locking operations. Furthermore, the magnetic force can eliminate any small gaps that may exist after the second frame 82 and the first frame 81 are closed, making the second frame 82 fit more tightly and further improving the docking accuracy between the belt conveyor assembly 73 of the flipping mechanism and the flipping plate 72. In addition, the magnetic connection structure is simple, has no mechanical wear, and can maintain good positioning effect after long-term use, with high reliability and long service life.

[0147] In specific implementations, the magnetic positioning structure can take various forms. For example, the magnetic positioning structure may include a permanent magnet or electromagnet disposed on one of the first frame 81 and the second frame 82, and a ferromagnetic metal block disposed on the other. When the second frame 82 approaches the closed position, the permanent magnet or electromagnet attracts the ferromagnetic metal block, pulling the second frame 82 towards the first frame 81 and maintaining the magnetic attraction. As another example, the magnetic positioning structure may include two sets of permanent magnets disposed on the first frame 81 and the second frame 82 respectively, arranged with opposite magnetic poles facing each other. When the second frame 82 is closed, the two sets of permanent magnets attract each other, achieving magnetic positioning. Yet another example, the magnetic positioning structure may also employ a combination of electromagnets and permanent magnets. When the equipment is running, the electromagnet is energized to enhance the attraction force and ensure the reliability of the closure; when it is necessary to open the second frame 82, the electromagnet is de-energized or reversed, causing the attraction force to disappear or weaken, thus facilitating the operator to push the second frame 82 open.

[0148] Preferably, in one embodiment, when the second rack 82 covers the first open side 811, it only covers a portion of the first open side 811. The mounting rack 80 also includes a rotatably configured third rack 83, which can cover or expose the remaining portion of the first open side 811 by rotating itself. Part of the transverse conveying assembly 74 is disposed within the second rack 82, and another part is disposed within the third rack 83. By configuring the first open side 811 to be segmented and covered by both the second rack 82 and the third rack 83, the number and specifications of racks can be flexibly configured according to the functional requirements of the equipment. Furthermore, when maintenance or replacement of consumables is required in a specific area within the first rack 81, only the corresponding second rack 82 or third rack 83 needs to be rotated to expose that area, without needing to open the entire equipment. This makes maintenance operations more precise and convenient, and reduces the impact on the normal operation of other areas. Furthermore, when both the second frame 82 and the third frame 83 are in the closed state, the flipping plate 72, the flipping mechanism belt conveyor assembly 73, and the transverse conveyor assembly 74 can be connected in sequence to form a continuous banknote transfer channel. This allows the processed banknote stacks 4000 to be reliably transferred from the first frame 81 through the second frame 82 to the third frame 83, supporting automated production line operations with multiple processes and further improving banknote processing efficiency and overall equipment integration.

[0149] Preferably, in one embodiment, the second frame 82 and the third frame 83 are arranged side by side along the width direction of the mounting frame 80. Along the width direction of the mounting frame 80, the frame of the conveying module 103 is located on the side of the third frame 83 away from the second frame 82. That is, along the width direction of the mounting frame 80, the second frame 82, the third frame 83, and the frame of the conveying module 103 are arranged sequentially. The side of the third frame 83 away from the second frame 82 is rotatably connected to the frame of the conveying module 103, and the rotation axis between the third frame 83 and the frame of the conveying module 103 is arranged along the height direction of the mounting frame 80. A roller 84 is provided at the bottom of the third frame 83. The side of the second frame 82 away from the third frame 83 is rotatably connected to the first frame 81.

[0150] By rotatably connecting the second frame 82 to the first frame 81 and rotatably connecting the third frame 83 to the frame of the conveying module 103, a multi-panel rotating frame opening and closing structure is formed. When large-area maintenance or replacement of consumables is required inside the first frame 81, the second frame 82 and the third frame 83 can be rotated and pushed open, allowing the first open side 811 to be fully exposed, thus providing a more spacious operating space. This facilitates operators to simultaneously handle the maintenance of multiple mechanisms within the first frame 81, further improving maintenance efficiency and convenience.

[0151] Meanwhile, since the racks are connected by a rotating mechanism and the rotating shafts are all set along the height of the racks, the structure is compact after multiple racks rotate, without occupying too much space around the equipment. The bottom of the third rack 83 is equipped with rollers 84. During rotation, the rollers 84 roll along the ground, providing stable support and guidance for the third rack 83 and the rack of the connected conveying module 103. This ensures that the rotation operation of multiple racks is still easy and smooth, avoiding sagging or jamming problems caused by cantilever structures.

[0152] Preferably, in one embodiment, the third frame 83 also includes the flipping mechanism belt conveyor assembly 73, and the first frame 81 contains multiple flipping plates 72. When both the second frame 82 and the third frame 83 cover the first open side 811, the flipping mechanism belt conveyor assembly 73 in the second frame 82 connects with a portion of the flipping plates 72, and the flipping mechanism belt conveyor assembly 73 in the third frame 83 connects with another portion of the flipping plates 72.

[0153] By setting multiple flipping plates 72 in the first frame 81 and also configuring the flipping mechanism belt conveyor assembly 73 in the third frame 83, the equipment has the ability to process multiple channels in parallel, which greatly improves the efficiency of banknote processing and meets the needs of large-volume, high-speed production.

[0154] Specifically, in one embodiment, the second frame 82 and the first frame 81, as well as the third frame 83 and the frame of the conveying module 103, can be rotatably connected by hinges 87.

[0155] Specifically, in one embodiment, the frames in the first frame 81, the second frame 82, the third frame 83, the banknote dispensing module 101, the conveying module 103, the belt conveyor module 200, and the packaging module 300 are all protective frames with covers.

[0156] The above description is merely an embodiment of the present invention. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make improvements without departing from the inventive concept of the present invention, but these improvements all fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
