Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of banknote counting machine technology, and in particular to a one-and-a-half-piece banknote counting machine with thickness measurement function. Background Technology

[0002] The one-and-a-half-piece banknote sorting and counting machine is a high-end financial device that combines banknote counting and sorting functions. It is widely used in banks, financial institutions, and places with large cash handling volumes. The one-and-a-half-piece banknote sorting and counting machine completes two processes with a single banknote feed: the first feed verifies the banknotes for counterfeit goods, identifying and rejecting counterfeit bills; the second feed sorts the banknotes that have passed counterfeit verification, distinguishing between different denominations, versions, or conditions of condition, and tallying the total amount. This design improves cash handling efficiency and reduces manual operation.

[0003] Previous one-and-a-half-piece banknote sorting and counting machines had the following drawbacks: 1. They lacked the function of measuring banknote thickness; after use, it was inconvenient to rotate the display screen into the storage slot for easy storage; and their dustproof and waterproof performance was poor. Therefore, those skilled in the art have provided one-and-a-half-piece banknote sorting and counting machines with thickness measurement function to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

When banknotes are put in through the banknote inlet for counting, the banknote plate acts as a shield so that the banknotes enter the main body of the one-and-a-half banknote sorting and counting machine at a certain angle.

[0012] As a further improvement of this utility model, a banknote baffle is installed on one side of the bottom end of the inner cavity, directly opposite the banknote dispensing wheel, by screws.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] 1. Banknotes are inserted through the banknote inlet for counting. The banknote inlet plate acts as a shield, causing the banknotes to enter the main body of the one-and-a-half banknote sorting and counting machine at a certain angle to avoid jamming. During the first banknote insertion, the machine verifies the banknotes for counterfeit goods, identifies and rejects counterfeit banknotes. During the second banknote insertion, the banknotes that have passed the counterfeit verification are sorted, distinguished by different denominations, versions or conditions of newness, and the total amount is calculated and displayed on the screen. Using a through-beam laser rangefinder sensor, two laser displacement sensors are installed in opposite directions to measure the distance from the two sides of the banknote surface to the sensor, thereby calculating the thickness of the banknote.

[0015] 2. The automatic zeroing sensor can reset the measured value to zero under specific conditions and recalculate subsequent data. The banknote dispensing wheel facilitates continuous and stable banknote dispensing, avoiding banknote accumulation at the dispensing slot. The banknote baffle blocks the inspected banknotes to prevent them from scattering out of the dispensing slot, making them easy to organize. After use, the display screen can be easily rotated into the storage slot for easy storage. It has significant dustproof and waterproof effects. Attached Figure Description
