[0026] Embodiment

[0027] Combined with Figures 1 to 4 , this embodiment provides an automatic dispensing mechanism for media, including an outer housing 1, a paper feed tray 2 and a paper feeding assembly. An outlet 3 is provided at the front end of the outer housing 1, and the paper feed tray 2 is correspondingly installed at the rear end of the outer housing 1.

[0028] Among them, the paper feeding assembly includes a paper lifting roller 4 and a conveyor roller group 5. The paper feed tray 2 is provided with a tray 6 for supporting the media and an elastic member 7 for pressing the media along the direction of the paper lifting roller 4 to the tray 6. The conveyor roller group 5 forms a paper feeding channel, and the paper lifting roller 4 can correspondingly convey the contacted media to the paper feeding channel, and then convey the media out along the outlet 3 through the conveyor roller group 5.

[0029] The automatic media dispensing mechanism described above transports the media in the paper feeding tray 2 to the transfer roller group 5 through the paper lifting roller 4, and then transfers the media along the paper feeding path to the paper outlet 3, thereby realizing automatic media dispensing without manual intervention, greatly improving work efficiency and operation convenience.

[0030] In particular, the cooperation between the paper lifting roller 4 of the paper feeding assembly and the transfer roller group 5 enables the media to be smoothly and steadily transported from the paper feeding tray 2 to the paper outlet 3, reducing the risk of paper jams or paper damage. In particular, the elastic member 7 can provide a stable pressure to the tray 6, ensuring good contact between the media and the paper lifting roller 4, improving the reliability and accuracy of media extraction, and the relative configuration of the tray 6 and the elastic member 7 can be adjusted as needed to adapt to different types and thicknesses of media, with a wide range of applications.

[0031] In this embodiment, one side of the tray 6 is configured as a hinged end, and the other side is configured as a swinging end, so that the tray 6 can be limited to swing up and down relative to the paper feeding tray 2, and the elastic member 7 is closely supported on the swinging end. As Figure 2 and Figure 3 shown, specifically, hinge shafts 8 pivotally connected to the paper feeding tray are correspondingly provided on both sides of the rear end of the tray 6, and a limiting shaft 9 is correspondingly provided at the front end of the tray 6. An activity slot 10 allowing the limiting shaft 9 to swing up and down is correspondingly formed on the side wall of the paper feeding tray, so that the whole tray 6 swings up and down relative to its hinge shaft 8, and under the action of the elastic member 7, the tray 6 is tilted upward in the paper feeding tray.

[0032] Furthermore, the paper lifting roller 4 is disposed opposite to the swinging end, and after the tray 6 swings to the extreme position, at least the last sheet of the stacked media can elastically contact the paper lifting roller 4. Preferably, the elastic member 7 is configured as a plurality of springs abutting between the bottom of the paper feeding tray and the bottom of the tray 6.

[0033] It should be noted that the media is stacked on the tray 6 and is limited on the tray 6 under the pressing of the paper lifting roller 4. In the state of full media, the elastic member 7 is in a compressed state. As the media is gradually transported to the transfer roller group 5 and the paper outlet 3 by the paper lifting roller 4, the thickness of the media material gradually decreases. At this time, the elastic member 7 is released from the compressed state until it expands to make the tray 6 in the extreme position, and a sheet of media is accommodated between the tray 6 in the extreme position and the paper lifting roller 4, and always maintains elastic pressing to allow the media to be sent out by the paper lifting roller 4.

[0034] In this embodiment, the paper lifting roller 4 is connected to a power member. The paper feeding power provided by the power member to the paper lifting roller 4 facilitates the transfer of the media to the transfer roller group 5 in the next stage.

[0035] In this embodiment, the conveying roller set 5 is composed of two rubber rollers arranged up and down to form the paper feeding channel, one of which is connected to another power member, which is provided by the power member to rotate the rubber roller to drive the rubber roller to deliver paper to the paper outlet 3.

[0036] The rubber roller is provided with a plurality of rollers spaced apart from each other along the width direction of the medium, and the plurality of rollers are evenly in contact with the medium, and the rollers are made of a rubber material with damping force, which is conducive to the tight transmission of the medium. In addition, the paper lifting roller 4 is centrally arranged in the width direction of the medium. Preferably, the length of the paper lifting roller 4 is equivalent to the length of a roller, and the paper lifting roller 4 is also configured of a rubber material with damping force.

[0037] Preferably, the paper lifting roller 4 is directly axially connected to the power member to which it belongs, and the rubber roller is connected to the power member to which it belongs through gear meshing. Different power members are used for paper feeding and transmission at different stages. At the paper lifting roller 4, the medium is twisted from the paper box 2 to the outside of the box, and then the medium is further transmitted to the paper outlet 3 through two rubber rollers outside the box to complete the automatic dispensing of the medium.

[0038] In this embodiment, a guide 11 is provided between the paper lifting roller 4 and the conveying roller group 5, and the guide 11 is smoothly connected to the paper feeding channel with a slope. The guide 11 is arranged between the paper lifting roller 4 and the conveying roller group 5, so that the medium transmitted by the paper lifting roller 4 is firstly fed along the guide 11, which facilitates the further accurate transmission of the medium to between the two rubber rollers of the conveying roller group 5.

[0039] like Figure 3 As shown, in this embodiment, the outer shell 1 includes a base 12, an upper cover 13 and a front cover 14. The front cover 14 and the base 12 are covered to form an internal space for accommodating the conveying roller group 5 and the paper outlet 3. The upper cover 13 is docked behind the front cover 14, and the upper cover 13 and the base 12 are covered to form a storage space that is convenient for the paper box 2 to be inserted and removed from the back, and the paper lifting roller 4 is correspondingly installed on the upper cover 13. Therefore, the reasonable coordination of the base 12, the upper cover 13 and the front cover 14 improves the stability and durability of the entire mechanism, and the insertion and removal makes it more convenient to add and maintain the consumables of the medium, and the overall structural design is compact, making full use of the internal space and reducing the occupied volume.

[0040] It should be mentioned that the paper box 2 is inserted into the storage space, and a lock structure 15 for locking and cooperating with the paper box 2 is provided on the base 12, so that the paper box 2 is locked and fixed on the outer shell 1 during operation, thereby ensuring safety performance.

[0041] In this embodiment, there is at least a first sensor for detecting the successful paper feeding of the paper lifting roller 4 and a second sensor for detecting whether paper is discharged from the paper outlet 3. Obviously, the functional implementation of each sensor belongs to the prior art and will not be described in detail herein.

[0042] Combined with Figure 5 , this embodiment further provides a voucher issuing device, including a body 16, a printing mechanism 17, and the above-mentioned automatic feeding mechanism for the medium. The medium can be, but is not limited to, various blank paper documents such as passbooks, seal cards, business entrustment letters, etc. The medium output from the paper outlet 3 of the automatic feeding mechanism is further input to the printing mechanism 17 for content printing, and finally the required voucher is obtained.

[0043] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention, and the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions falling within the concept of the present invention belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
