Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0028] like Figure 1 As shown, this utility model embodiment provides a banknote collection and inspection integrated machine, including:

[0029] The banknote assembly comprises a collection module 1, a bundling module 2, a counting module 3, and a frame module 4. These modules are sequentially connected in the direction of banknote movement and are all mounted on the frame module 4. The counting module 3 includes a counting head 32 and a vision component 35, which perform counting and quality checks on the bundled banknotes. This invention integrates the collection module 1, bundling module 2, and counting module 3 within the banknote packaging line, optimizing the functional structure and achieving a harmonious appearance, unified control, convenient maintenance, and better meeting actual production needs. The counting and quality checks of the bundled banknotes via the counting head 32 and vision component 35 enable the collection, detection, and counting of information on the bundled banknotes, achieving high-precision, high-quality, and high-standard inspection.

[0030] like Figure 2As shown, the banknote collection module 1 includes a banknote inlet receiving conveyor belt 11, a material discharge bin rotating mechanism 12, a first banknote pushing mechanism 13, a clamping plate sorting mechanism 14, a banknote bundle lifting mechanism 15, and a second banknote pushing mechanism 16, arranged sequentially along the direction of banknote movement. Specifically, the banknote bundle lifting mechanism 15 is located below the clamping plate sorting mechanism 14, and the second banknote pushing mechanism 16 is located above the clamping plate sorting mechanism 14. The second banknote pushing mechanism 16 is connected to the banknote bundle module 2.

[0031] In operation, the banknote collection module 1 features automatic stacking and palletizing of banknote bundles, five-way rotation, automatic sorting of banknote bundles, and bundle detection. Banknote bundles are received by the conveyor belt 11 through the banknote inlet and enter the banknote collection module's discharge bin rotating mechanism 12 for stacking. The discharge bin rotating mechanism 12 includes a counting module and a rotating disk, enabling both counting and rotation. After counting five bundles, the rotating disk rotates 180 degrees, completing the banknote bundle collection when ten bundles are counted. Then, the first banknote pushing mechanism 13 pushes the ten completed banknote bundles into the clamping and sorting mechanism 14. The clamping and sorting mechanism 14 uses a cylinder to drive the clamping plates to clamp and sort the banknote bundles. The sorted ten banknote bundles are first lifted by the banknote bundling lifting mechanism 15, and then pushed out of the banknote collection module 1 to the bundled banknote module 2 by the second banknote pushing mechanism 16. The banknote collection module rotates 180 degrees every 5 bundles to ensure that the binding straps of each 5 bundles are positioned on the left and right sides respectively, thus ensuring that the completed banknote bundles are flat and not tilted. It can also be patted and straightened horizontally and vertically to ensure that the banknote bundles are flat all around.

[0032] like Figure 3 As shown, the banknote bundling module 2 includes a connector 21, a pressure device 22, a side pusher 23, a bundling strap 24, a coding device 25, and an ultrasonic sealing knife 26 arranged sequentially along the direction of banknote movement. One side of the connector 21 is connected to the banknote collection module 1, and the other side is connected to the counting module 3. Preferably, the connector 21, the pressure device 22, and the side pusher 23 are all cylinder actuators.

[0033] In operation, the connector 21 extends, and the banknotes pushed out by the second banknote pushing mechanism 16 enter the connector 21 in the bundle module 2. The pressure device 22 and the side pusher 23 extend to press and fix the banknote bundle. After the connector 21 retracts, a binding strap 24 is tied around the product in the center. The binding strap is centered, with a left-right deviation of no more than 3mm. A QR code, barcode, or other data can be printed on it by the coding device 25. The binding strap 24 is cut and sealed by the ultrasonic sealing knife 26, with neat and misaligned seams and a complete and firm adhesive. The tightness of the bundle can be adjusted according to the thickness of the banknotes, and the bundled products are flat after bundling. Optionally, the bundle module 2 includes a network communicator with network communication function, an audible and visual warning light, and an emergency stop button in a suitable location to serve as an emergency alarm and shutdown device in case of emergency.

[0034] like Figure 4As shown, the counting module 3 includes a lifting and clamping mechanism 31, a third banknote pushing mechanism 33, a fourth banknote pushing mechanism 34, a fifth banknote pushing mechanism 36, and a counting platform 38 arranged sequentially along the direction of banknote movement. The lifting and clamping mechanism 31 is connected to the bundle module 2. The counting head 32 is located above the third banknote pushing mechanism 33 and serves as the counting mechanism. The vision component 35 is located above the fifth banknote pushing mechanism 36 and serves as the quality inspection component. The counting platform 38 has the fourth banknote pushing mechanism 34 at one end and a qualified banknote bundle exit 39 corresponding to the direction of the fourth banknote pushing mechanism 34 at the other end. The fifth banknote pushing mechanism 36 is located on one side of the counting platform 38, and a banknote bundle rejection channel 37 corresponding to the direction of the fifth banknote pushing mechanism 36 is located on the other side. It can be understood that the end direction is the direction extending along the counting platform 38, and the lateral direction is the direction perpendicular to the direction of the counting platform 38.

[0035] In practice, the bundled products enter the counting module 3. First, the banknote bundles are positioned and clamped by the lifting and clamping mechanism 31, and then counted by the counting paper 32. After counting, the third banknote pushing mechanism 33 pushes the products down and onto the counting platform 38. Then, the fourth banknote pushing mechanism 34 pushes the products to the underside of the vision component 35 for quality inspection of the number of bundles per thousand. Next, the serial number information of the first banknote in the bundle is collected. After the inspection and information collection are completed, the products are sorted. Products with errors in counting, inspection, and information collection are pushed out through the banknote bundle rejection channel 37 by the fifth banknote pushing mechanism 36 and manually processed. Qualified products are still pushed out through the qualified banknote bundle exit 39 by the fourth banknote pushing mechanism 34 to the subsequent process equipment.

[0036] like Figure 5 As shown, the frame module 4 includes a first frame 41 and a second frame 42, with the first frame 41 located above the second frame 42. The first frame 41 is assembled from aluminum profile frames, allowing for flexible adjustment and an aesthetically pleasing appearance. The second frame 42 is manufactured using square tubing welding, ensuring sufficient strength and rigidity. An aluminum plate 43 is provided on the lower side of the first frame 41, on which the collection module 1, the bundling module 2, and the data transfer module 3 are connected. The aluminum plate 43 is machined to ensure the flatness of the frame mounting reference surface, guaranteeing the installation accuracy of each module. Meanwhile, casters 44 are connected to the lower side of the second frame 42 for easy equipment movement, and feet 45 are also installed to support the equipment and allow for height adjustment.

[0037] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit it. Although the utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features therein. Such modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model.
