Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of financial equipment technology, and in particular to a banknote temporary storage mechanism and a banknote processing device. Background Technology

[0002] The banknote processing device in the related technology includes a banknote temporary storage mechanism and a banknote box. The banknote temporary storage mechanism includes a frame, a gate, and a drive mechanism. The frame has a receiving cavity for holding banknotes, and a banknote drop opening is located at the bottom of the receiving cavity. The gate is movably connected to the frame and can move relative to the frame to open or close the banknote drop opening. When the banknote temporary storage mechanism collects banknotes, the gate closes the banknote drop opening. The gate supports the banknotes entering the receiving cavity. After a set time, if the banknotes in the receiving cavity are not removed or confirmed as stored, the drive mechanism drives the gate to open the banknote drop opening, allowing the banknotes on the gate to fall into the banknote box under gravity. However, when the number of banknotes in the receiving cavity is small and the banknotes are curled, the banknotes may not be able to fall through the banknote drop opening, causing a banknote jam. Utility Model Content

[0003] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a banknote temporary storage mechanism and a banknote processing device to ensure that the banknotes in the receiving cavity of the banknote temporary storage mechanism can fall smoothly from the banknote drop outlet and avoid banknote jamming.

[0004] On the one hand, this utility model provides a banknote temporary storage institution, which includes:

[0005] The frame is provided with a receiving cavity, and the bottom of the receiving cavity is provided with a banknote dropping slot;

[0006] A stop door is movably connected to the frame. The stop door can move relative to the frame and open or close the banknote drop opening. When the stop door closes the banknote drop opening, the stop door is used to support the banknotes in the receiving cavity. When the stop door opens the banknote drop opening, the banknotes in the receiving cavity tend to fall through the banknote drop opening under the action of gravity to get away from the stop door.

[0007] The striking assembly includes a striking component and an operating component. The striking component is movably connected to the frame and is movable relative to the frame, having a working state and a standby state. When the striking component is in the working state, it enters the receiving cavity and strikes the banknotes inside, causing them to fall through the banknote drop slot. When the striking component is in the standby state, it exits the receiving cavity and is fixed in position relative to the frame. The operating component is connected to the striking component and is used by a user to hold and drive the striking component to switch between the working state and the standby state. When the striking component is in the working state, the operating component is also used by a user to hold and drive the striking component to strike the banknotes inside the receiving cavity.

[0008] As a preferred technical solution for a banknote temporary storage facility, the frame is further provided with a limiting part. When the striking component is in the standby state, the striking component cooperates with the limiting part to fix the position of the striking component relative to the frame. When the striking component is in the working state, the striking component separates from the limiting part.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution for a banknote temporary storage mechanism, the tapping component is configured to rotate relative to the frame to enter or exit the receiving cavity;

[0010] The striking member is further configured to: rotate relative to the frame to strike banknotes when the striking member enters the receiving cavity, and slide relative to the frame to engage or disengage with the limiting part when the striking member exits the receiving cavity.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution for a banknote temporary storage institution, the frame is provided with a slide groove, and the tapping component further includes a rotating shaft, which is inserted into the slide groove and can slide along the slide groove;

[0012] One of the operating component and the striking component is connected to the rotating shaft, so that the operating component and the striking component can rotate synchronously relative to the frame around the axis of the rotating shaft;

[0013] The limiting part includes a limiting groove spaced apart from the slide groove. When the striking member rotates relative to the frame and exits the receiving cavity, the striking member can also slide along the slide groove with the rotating shaft and be inserted into or separated from the limiting groove.

[0014] As a preferred technical solution for a banknote temporary storage institution, the limiting part further includes a slot spaced apart from the limiting groove. When the striking member is in the standby state, the striking member is inserted into the limiting groove, and the operating member is engaged with the slot. When the striking member is in the working state, the striking member is separated from the limiting groove, and the operating member is separated from the slot.

[0015] As a preferred technical solution for a banknote temporary storage mechanism, the striking assembly further includes an elastic element connected between the rotating shaft and the striking component and the frame. The elastic element is used to ensure that the striking component always has the tendency to slide along the slide groove and engage with the limiting groove.

[0016] As a preferred technical solution for a banknote temporary storage institution, the frame includes a mounting plate. When the gate opens the banknote drop opening, the mounting plate is opposite to and spaced apart from the banknote drop opening, and the striking component is movably connected to the mounting plate.

[0017] The gate includes a first gate and a second gate. The first gate is pivotally connected to the frame via a first pivot shaft. The first gate can rotate relative to the frame about the axis of the first pivot shaft and has a first open position and a first closed position. The second gate is pivotally connected to the frame via a second pivot shaft. The second gate can rotate relative to the frame about the axis of the second pivot shaft and has a second open position and a second closed position. The first pivot shaft and the second pivot shaft are parallel. When the first gate is in the first closed position and the second gate is in the second closed position, the first gate and the second gate are angled together to close the banknote drop opening. The first gate and the second gate are used to jointly support the banknotes in the receiving cavity. When the first gate is in the first open position and the second gate is in the second open position, the first gate and the second gate are opposite to each other and spaced apart to open the banknote drop opening. The striking member can extend between the first gate and the second gate.

[0018] As a preferred technical solution for a banknote temporary storage institution, the banknote temporary storage institution further includes:

[0019] An impeller is rotatably mounted on the frame and is used to convey banknotes into the receiving cavity;

[0020] An avoidance opening is provided at least partially in the gate, and the impeller is embedded in the avoidance opening;

[0021] A blocking plate protrudes from the inner surface of the gate along the edge of the clearance opening, and the blocking plate is used to prevent banknotes from entering the clearance opening.

[0022] As a preferred technical solution for a banknote temporary storage mechanism, the banknote temporary storage mechanism further includes a push plate fixedly connected to the barrier gate. The push plate has a serrated banknote pushing surface. The push plate is configured such that, during the process of the barrier gate opening the banknote drop opening, the push plate moves synchronously with the barrier gate and the banknote pushing surface pushes the banknotes in contact with it toward the banknote drop opening.

[0023] The banknote temporary storage mechanism provided by this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0024] The banknote temporary storage mechanism includes a frame, a gate, and a striking assembly. The frame has a receiving cavity with a banknote drop opening at the bottom. The gate is movably connected to the frame and can move relative to the frame to open or close the banknote drop opening. When the gate closes the drop opening, it supports the banknotes in the receiving cavity. When the gate opens the drop opening, the banknotes in the receiving cavity tend to fall through the drop opening under the influence of gravity, thus escaping the gate. The striking assembly includes a striking component and an operating component. The striking component is movably connected to the frame and can move relative to the frame. It has a working state and a standby state. When the striking component is in the working state, it enters the receiving cavity and strikes the banknotes inside, so that the banknotes inside the receiving cavity fall through the banknote drop slot. When the striking component is in the standby state, it exits the receiving cavity and its position relative to the frame is fixed. The operating component is connected to the striking component. The operating component is used by the user to hold and drive the striking component to switch between the working state and the standby state. When the striking component is in the working state, the operating component is also used by the user to hold and drive the striking component to strike the banknotes inside the receiving cavity. With this design, when the gate closes the banknote drop opening, it supports the banknotes inside the receiving cavity. When the gate opens the drop opening, the banknotes can fall through the drop opening under their own weight. If the banknotes are few in number and curled, causing them to scrape against surrounding parts and not fall, the user can switch to the working state by holding the operating component to drive the striking component to strike the banknotes. This changes the shape and position of the banknotes, allowing them to fall smoothly from the drop opening under the drive of the striking component, thus avoiding banknote jamming caused by banknotes failing to fall.

[0025] On the other hand, this utility model provides a banknote processing device, including a banknote temporary storage mechanism as described in any of the above-mentioned schemes and a banknote box located below the banknote temporary storage mechanism, the banknote box being used to receive banknotes falling through the banknote drop opening.

[0026] The banknote processing device provided by this utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0027] The banknote processing device includes the aforementioned banknote storage mechanism and a banknote box located below the banknote storage mechanism. When the gate opens the banknote drop opening, the banknote drop opening is connected to the banknote box below. By tapping the banknotes located in the receiving cavity with a tapping device, the banknotes in the receiving cavity can be ensured to pass smoothly through the banknote drop opening and enter the banknote box, thus avoiding banknote jamming.

[0047] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0048] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4This embodiment provides a banknote temporary storage mechanism 100, which includes a frame 1, a door 2, and a striking assembly 3. The frame 1 has a receiving cavity 11, and a banknote drop opening 12 at the bottom of the receiving cavity 11. The door 2 is movably connected to the frame 1 and can move relative to the frame 1 to open or close the banknote drop opening 12. When the door 2 closes the banknote drop opening 12, it supports banknotes 700 inside the receiving cavity 11. When the door 2 opens the banknote drop opening 12, the banknotes 700 inside the receiving cavity 11 tend to fall through the banknote drop opening 12 under the influence of gravity, thus escaping the door 2. The striking assembly 3 includes a striking element 32 and an operating element 31. The striking element 32 is movably connected to the frame 1 and can move relative to the frame 1, having a working state and an operating state. In standby mode, when the striking element 32 is in working mode, the striking element 32 enters the receiving cavity 11 and is used to strike the banknotes 700 in the receiving cavity 11 so that the banknotes 700 in the receiving cavity 11 fall through the banknote drop outlet 12. When the striking element 32 is in standby mode, the striking element 32 exits the receiving cavity 11 and is fixed in position relative to the frame 1. The operating element 31 is connected to the striking element 32. The operating element 31 is used by the user to hold and drive the striking element 32 to switch between working mode and standby mode. When the striking element 32 is in working mode, the operating element 31 is also used by the user to hold and drive the striking element 32 to strike the banknotes 700 in the receiving cavity 11.

[0049] The banknote storage mechanism 100 provided in this embodiment supports the banknotes 700 in the receiving cavity 11 when the barrier 2 closes the banknote drop opening 12; when the barrier 2 opens the banknote drop opening 12, under normal circumstances, the banknotes 700 can fall through the banknote drop opening 12 under their own weight. If the banknotes 700 are few in number, curled, or soft, causing them to scrape against surrounding parts and not fall, the user can switch to the working state by holding the operating component 31 to drive the striking component 32, and then... The operating component 31 drives the striking component 32 to strike the banknote 700 in the receiving cavity 11, which can change the shape and position of the banknote 700, so that the banknote 700 can fall smoothly from the banknote drop slot 12 under the drive of the striking component 32, avoiding the banknote jamming phenomenon caused by the banknote 700 not being able to fall; at the same time, since the striking component 32 needs to be manually driven by the user through the operating component 31, the user can effectively strike the banknote 700 according to the shape of the banknote 700 and the position of the banknote 700 jamming, which is flexible in operation and simple in structure.

[0050] It should be noted that "normal circumstances" refers to situations where the banknotes 700 inside the receiving cavity 11 are relatively heavy, the banknotes 700 inside the receiving cavity 11 are flat, or the banknotes 700 inside the receiving cavity 11 have not softened, etc. Specifically, when the banknotes 700 inside the receiving cavity 11 are relatively heavy, they possess a large gravitational potential energy. Therefore, even if some banknotes 700 curl or soften, they can still be pressed down by the other banknotes 700 and fall smoothly through the banknote drop opening 12. When the banknotes 700 inside the receiving cavity 11 are flat, they are less likely to come into contact with or scrape against surrounding parts, allowing them to fall smoothly through the banknote drop opening 12 under their own weight. When the banknotes 700 are not softened, their coefficient of friction is low, resulting in less friction between them and surrounding parts. Under their own weight, they can fall smoothly through the banknote drop opening 12.

[0051] Alternatively, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 In this embodiment, when the gate 2 opens the banknote drop opening 12, the banknotes 700 in the receiving cavity 11, under the action of their own gravity, tend to fall vertically (as shown by arrow ab) toward the banknote drop opening 12. When the user manually drives the operation by holding the operating component 31, the striking component 32 can strike the banknotes 700 in the receiving cavity 11 from top to bottom, so as to cause the banknotes 700 in the receiving cavity 11 to fall through the banknote drop opening 12.

[0052] Alternatively, please refer to Figures 5 to 7 The frame 1 is also equipped with a limiting part. When the striking element 32 is in standby mode, the striking element 32 cooperates with the limiting part to fix the position of the striking element 32 relative to the frame 1. When the striking element 32 is in working mode, the striking element 32 separates from the limiting part. With this configuration, when the gate 2 supports the banknote 700, the striking element 32 exits the receiving cavity 11, and the limiting part fixes the position of the striking element 32 relative to the frame 1, so that the striking element 32 will not obstruct the banknote 700 from entering the receiving cavity 11, thereby improving the banknote collection reliability of the banknote temporary storage mechanism 100.

[0053] Alternatively, please continue to refer to Figures 5 to 7The striking element 32 is configured to rotate relative to the frame 1 to enter or exit the receiving cavity 11. The striking element 32 is also configured to rotate relative to the frame 1 to strike the banknote 700 when it enters the receiving cavity 11, and to slide relative to the frame 1 to engage or disengage with the limiting part when it exits the receiving cavity 11. This configuration ensures that the movement of the striking element 32 in and out of the receiving cavity 11 differs from the movement of the striking element 32 engaging or disengaging with the limiting part, thus improving the reliability of the limiting part in preventing the striking element 32 from entering the receiving cavity 11. In other embodiments, the striking element 32 is configured to slide relative to the frame 1 to enter or exit the receiving cavity 11, and is further configured to rotate relative to the frame 1 to strike the banknote 700 when it enters the receiving cavity 11.

[0054] Alternatively, please continue to refer to Figures 5 to 7 In this embodiment, the frame 1 is provided with a slide groove 14, and the tapping assembly 3 also includes a rotating shaft 33, which is inserted into the slide groove 14 and can slide along the slide groove 14; one of the operating member 31 and the tapping member 32 is connected to the rotating shaft 33, so that the operating member 31 and the tapping member 32 can rotate synchronously relative to the frame 1 around the axis of the rotating shaft 33; the limiting part includes a limiting groove 131 spaced apart from the slide groove 14. When the tapping member 32 rotates relative to the frame 1 and exits the receiving cavity 11, the tapping member 32 can also slide along the slide groove 14 with the rotating shaft 33 and be inserted into or separated from the limiting groove 131. This configuration allows the striking element 32 to slide along the groove 14 via the rotating shaft 33, increasing its range of motion and improving the flexibility of striking the banknotes 700. Furthermore, by engaging the striking element 32 with the limiting groove 131, the reliability of the limiting portion in positioning the striking element 32 when it is in standby mode is improved, further enhancing the banknote storage mechanism 100's reliability in collecting banknotes. Preferably, the striking element 32 is rotatably fitted with the rotating shaft 33. In other embodiments, the striking element 32 can also be fixedly fitted with the rotating shaft 33, allowing the rotating shaft 33 to rotate within the groove 14.

[0055] Alternatively, please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 6 In this embodiment, the frame 1 includes a first support plate 16 and a second support plate 17 arranged opposite to and spaced apart along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 33. Both the first support plate 16 and the second support plate 17 are provided with sliding grooves 14. The two ends of the rotating shaft 33 are respectively inserted into the two sliding grooves 14. The striking member 32 is sleeved on the rotating shaft 33 and can slide relative to the rotating shaft 33 between the first support plate 16 and the second support plate 17 along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 33. This arrangement allows the striking member 32 to not only rotate around the axis of the rotating shaft 33 and slide along the sliding grooves 14, but also slide along the axis of the rotating shaft 33. The multiple movement modes of the striking member 32 increase the range of motion of the striking member 32 and further improve the flexibility of striking the banknote 700 by the striking member 32.

[0056] As an alternative, the tapping assembly 3 also includes a support shaft fixedly connected to the frame 1. The tapping member 32 is sleeved with the support shaft. The tapping member 32 can rotate relative to the support shaft around the axis of the support shaft and enter or exit the receiving cavity 11. The limiting part includes a limiting groove 131. The tapping member 32 can also slide relative to the support shaft along the axis of the support shaft and be inserted into or separated from the limiting groove 131.

[0057] Alternatively, please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 7 In this embodiment, the limiting part further includes a slot 132 spaced apart from the limiting groove 131. When the striking member 32 is in a standby state, the striking member 32 is inserted into the limiting groove 131, and the operating member 31 is engaged with the slot 132. When the striking member 32 is in a working state, the striking member 32 is separated from the limiting groove 131, and the operating member 31 is separated from the slot 132. This arrangement further improves the reliability of the limiting part in limiting the position of the striking member 32 when the striking member 32 is in a standby state. In other embodiments, the limiting part may also include a magnet fixedly disposed on the frame 1. The magnet is magnetically attracted to the striking member 32. When the striking member 32 is in a standby state, the striking member 32 is attracted to the magnet.

[0058] Alternatively, please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 In this embodiment, the operating component 31 includes an operating lever 311, and the striking component 32 includes a connecting rod 321, a striking rod 322, and a spiral portion 323. The spiral portion 323 is sleeved with the rotating shaft 33. The first end of the connecting rod 321 is connected to the operating lever 311 at an angle, the second end of the connecting rod 321 is connected to the first end of the spiral portion 323, and the striking rod 322 is connected to the second end of the spiral portion 323. The operating lever 311 is for the user to hold, and the striking rod 322 is used to strike the banknote 700 and cause the banknote 700 to fall through the banknote drop slot 12. Preferably, the connecting rod 321, the striking rod 322, and the spiral portion 323 are integrally formed. More preferably, the operating component 31 also includes a protective sleeve sleeved on the outside of the operating lever 311 to prevent the user from being scratched when operating the operating lever 311. In other embodiments, the striking component 32 is provided with an insertion hole, which is rotatably sleeved with the rotating shaft 33.

[0059] Alternatively, please refer to Figures 1 to 7The striking assembly 3 also includes an elastic element 34, which connects one of the rotating shaft 33 and the striking element 32 to the frame 1. The elastic element 34 ensures that the striking element 32 always tends to slide along the slide groove 14 and engage with the limiting groove 131. This configuration allows the striking element 32 to automatically engage with the limiting groove 131 under the action of the elastic element 34 after the user drives the striking element 32 out of the receiving cavity 11 by holding the operating component 31. This simplifies operation and improves the reliability of the engagement between the striking element 32 and the limiting groove 131. Preferably, the elastic element 34 is a compression spring. The frame 1 has a mounting groove 15, and the compression spring is embedded in the mounting groove 15 and abuts against the striking element 32 and the frame 1. The mounting groove 15 restricts the deformation direction of the compression spring, ensuring the stability of the elastic force exerted by the spring on the striking element 32, thereby ensuring the reliability of the engagement between the striking element 32 and the limiting groove 131. In other embodiments, the elastic element 34 can also be a tension spring.

[0060] Optionally, when the striking component 32 is in working condition, when the user drives the striking component 32 to rotate in the first direction by holding the operating component 31, the striking component 32 strikes the banknotes 700 in the receiving cavity 11 from top to bottom toward the banknote drop slot 12. When the user drives the striking component 32 to rotate in the second direction by holding the operating component 31, the striking component 32 moves away from the banknote drop slot 12 from bottom to top, in preparation for the next striking. The striking component 3 also includes a torsion spring, which is connected between the rotating shaft 33 and the striking component 32. The torsion spring is configured to always have the tendency to drive the striking component 32 in the second direction or to rotate. With this setting, the striking component 32 can automatically reset after each striking, improving the user's striking efficiency.

[0061] Alternatively, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4The frame 1 includes a mounting plate 18. When the gate 2 opens the banknote drop slot 12, the mounting plate 18 is opposite to and spaced apart from the banknote drop slot 12. The striking element 32 is movably connected to the mounting plate 18. The gate 2 includes a first door 21 and a second door 22. The first door 21 is pivotally connected to the frame 1 via a first pivot shaft 23. The first door 21 can rotate relative to the frame 1 around the axis of the first pivot shaft 23 and has a first open position and a first closed position. The second door 22 is pivotally connected to the frame 1 via a second pivot shaft 24. The second door 22 can rotate relative to the frame 1 around the axis of the second pivot shaft 24 and has a second open position. In the first closed position and the second closed position, the first pivot 23 and the second pivot 24 are parallel. When the first door 21 is in the first closed position and the second door 22 is in the second closed position, the first door 21 and the second door 22 are angled together to close the banknote drop opening 12, and the first door 21 and the second door 22 are used to jointly support the banknotes 700 in the receiving cavity 11. When the first door 21 is in the first open position and the second door 22 is in the second open position, the first door 21 and the second door 22 are opposite to each other and spaced apart to open the banknote drop opening 12, and the striking member 32 can extend between the first door 21 and the second door 22. This arrangement improves the reliability of the striking member 32 striking the banknotes 700. Preferably, when the striking member 32 is in the standby state, the striking member 32 is folded relative to the mounting plate 18. This arrangement reduces the space occupied by the striking member 32 when it is in the standby state. More preferably, the banknote temporary storage mechanism 100 further includes a motor and a transmission assembly. The motor is connected to the first door 21 and the second door 22 via the transmission assembly, respectively, to drive the first door 21 and the second door 22 to rotate synchronously to the open or closed position. The transmission assembly can be a gear transmission assembly, a belt transmission assembly, or a chain transmission assembly, which will not be elaborated further here.

[0062] Alternatively, please refer to Figure 8 The banknote temporary storage mechanism 100 also includes an impeller 4, a clearance opening 5, and a baffle plate 6. The impeller 4 is rotatably mounted on the frame 1 and is used to convey banknotes 700 to the receiving cavity 11. The clearance opening 5 is at least partially located in the barrier 2, and the impeller 4 is embedded in the clearance opening 5. The baffle plate 6 protrudes along the edge of the clearance opening 5 onto the inner surface of the barrier 2, and is used to prevent banknotes 700 from entering the clearance opening 5. This arrangement prevents bent banknotes 700 from entering between the impeller 4 and the side wall of the clearance opening 5, causing banknote jamming. Preferably, the impeller 4 has baffle plates 6 on both sides along its axial direction.

[0063] Alternatively, please continue to refer to Figure 8The banknote temporary storage mechanism 100 also includes a push plate 7 fixedly connected to the gate 2. The push plate 7 has a serrated banknote pushing surface 71. The push plate 7 is configured such that when the gate 2 opens the banknote drop opening 12, the push plate 7 moves synchronously with the gate 2 and pushes the banknote 700 in contact with it towards the banknote drop opening 12. This configuration ensures that when the end of the banknote 700 contacts the push surface 71, it enters between two adjacent serrations. This allows the push plate 7 to reliably push the banknote 700 and change its shape and position when it moves synchronously with the gate 2, so that the banknote 700 can reliably fall from the banknote drop opening 12 under the action of gravity or the striking action of the striking member 32.

[0064] Please refer to Figure 9 This embodiment provides a banknote processing device, which includes the aforementioned banknote temporary storage mechanism 100 and a banknote box 200 located below the banknote temporary storage mechanism 100. The banknote box 200 is used to receive banknotes 700 falling through the banknote drop opening 12. When the gate 2 opens the banknote drop opening 12, the banknote drop opening 12 is connected to the banknote box 200 below. The banknotes 700 located in the receiving cavity 11 are tapped by the tapping member 32, which can ensure that the banknotes 700 in the receiving cavity 11 can smoothly pass through the banknote drop opening 12 and enter the banknote box 200, avoiding banknote jamming.

[0065] Optionally, the banknote processing device further includes a coin insertion mechanism 300, a coin recognition mechanism 400, a coin return mechanism 500, and a gate 600. The coin insertion mechanism 300 receives banknotes 700 inserted by the user; the coin recognition mechanism 400 collects information about the banknotes 700 and identifies their authenticity; the coin return mechanism 500 includes a coin return port 501; the frame 1 also has a coin dispensing port (not shown in the attached drawings) and a banknote insertion port 19, both connected to the receiving cavity 11; and the gate 600 blocks the coin dispensing port. Specifically, when depositing, banknotes 700 are inserted by the depositing mechanism 300, recognized by the recognizing mechanism 400, and qualified banknotes 700 are temporarily stored in the receiving cavity 11 through the banknote inlet 19. Unqualified banknotes 700 are returned to the user through the return port 501. When the user confirms the deposit, the barrier 2 of the banknote processing device is opened, and the banknotes 700 fall into the banknote box 200 through the banknote drop port 12. When the user cancels the deposit, the gate 600 is opened, and the user can take the banknotes 700 from the receiving cavity 11 through the coin retrieval port.
