Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of banknote transmission technology, and in particular to a banknote loading and unloading structure with a recycling function. Background Technology
[0002] During ATM use, there are instances where customers forget to take their banknotes after withdrawing them, and the existing structure cannot conveniently recycle banknotes. Utility Model Content
[0003] Based on this, this application proposes a banknote inlet and outlet structure with a recycling function. This structure adds a forgotten banknote recycling function to the existing high-speed large-denomination ATM by improving the transmission channel.
[0004] In a first aspect, embodiments of the present invention provide a banknote infeed / outfeed structure with a recycling function. The banknote infeed / outfeed structure includes a first banknote-grinding wheel, a first banknote-digging wheel, and a first anti-reverse wheel, which are combined to feed the banknotes to be recycled from the cash dispensing slot into the first channel. It also includes a sensor and a reversing tooth. The reversing tooth is used to reverse the direction by pulling a tension lever after receiving a signal from the sensor, so that the banknotes to be recycled enter the recycling channel. It also includes a reset spring, which is used to make the banknotes enter the first channel from the banknote dispensing channel and then be transferred to the cash dispensing slot when the banknotes are in the dispensing state.
[0005] Furthermore, the banknote inlet / outlet structure also includes a synchronous belt, which connects the recycle channel and the banknote outlet channel in series, and a motor after the drive wheel is used to provide power to the synchronous belt.
[0006] Furthermore, the banknote inlet / outlet structure also includes a commutator shaft for connecting the commutator gear and the tension lever.
[0007] Furthermore, the cash in / out structure also includes a keypad for receiving withdrawal instructions from users.
[0008] Furthermore, the banknote in / out structure also includes a first elastic wheel, used to assist in feeding the banknotes to be recycled from the withdrawal slot into the first channel.
[0009] The present invention provides the following beneficial effects:
[0010] This application proposes a banknote feeding and discharging structure with a recycling function, including a first banknote-grinding wheel, a first banknote-digging wheel, and a first anti-reverse wheel. These three components work together to feed the banknotes to be recycled from the withdrawal slot into a first channel. It also includes a sensor and a reversing gear. The reversing gear, upon receiving a signal from the sensor, reverses the direction via a tension lever, allowing the banknotes to enter the recycling channel. A reset spring is also included, which, in the banknote discharging state, guides the banknotes from the discharging channel into the first channel and then to the withdrawal slot. This structure, through improvements to the transmission channel, adds a forgotten-to-be-collected banknote recycling function to the existing high-speed, large-denomination ATM.

[0019] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0020] The banknote inlet / outlet structure with recycling function in this embodiment includes:
[0021] The first banknote-collecting wheel 13, the first banknote-digging wheel 12, and the first anti-reverse wheel 14, together, are used to feed the banknotes to be collected from the withdrawal slot 23 into the first channel (i.e., Figure 3 (The channel indicated by the dashed line between the withdrawal slot 23 and the reversing gear 18).
[0022] It also includes a sensor 26 and a reversing tooth 18. The reversing tooth 18 is used to reverse the direction of the banknotes to be recycled by means of a pull lever 21 after receiving a signal from the sensor 26, so that the banknotes to be recycled can enter the recycling channel (i.e., Figure 3 The channel indicated by the dashed line between the reversing gear 18 and the cash box 42).
[0023] It also includes a return spring 20, which, in the cash dispensing state, is used to release the banknotes from the cash dispensing channel (i.e., Figure 1 The dotted line between the reversing gear 18 and the cash box 42 indicates the channel, which enters the first channel and is then transferred to the withdrawal slot 23.
[0024] It also includes a synchronous belt 9, which connects the recycling channel and the cash dispensing channel in series. The motor after the power wheel 48 is used to provide power to the synchronous belt 9.
[0025] It also includes a commutator shaft 17 for connecting the commutator gear 18 and the tension lever 21.
[0026] It also includes a keypad 40 for receiving withdrawal instructions from users.
[0027] It also includes a first elastic wheel 45, which is used to assist in feeding the banknotes to be recycled from the withdrawal slot 23 into the first channel.
[0028] The specific usage process of this structure is as follows:
[0029] like Figure 1 As shown, during the withdrawal process, after the customer enters the withdrawal instruction via the keypad 40, banknotes are dispensed from the cash box 42 and flow along... Figure 1 The dotted line transmits counterclockwise (i.e., the cash dispensing channel). Figure 1 The channel indicated by the dotted line between the reversing gear 18 and the cash box 42), passes sequentially through the lower synchronous belt 9 and the reversing gear 18 (i.e., Figure 1 The state shown is the normal state. The tension lever 21 is not working, and the reversing gear 18 is kept in working condition by the reset spring 20. Other wheels 47, the first elastic wheel 45, the first friction wheel 13, and the first anti-reverse wheel 14 enter the cash withdrawal assembly, which specifically means reaching the cash withdrawal port 23 to withdraw cash.
[0030] See Figure 2The commutator assembly consists of a commutator shaft 17, a commutator tooth 18, a return spring 20, and a tension spring 21. The commutator tooth 18 is a triangular shape.
[0031] like Figure 3 As shown, if there are banknotes in the withdrawal assembly (specifically, withdrawal slot 23) that need to be collected, under the drive of the control unit, the banknotes are pushed into the first channel (i.e., the first banknote digging wheel 12, the first banknote rubbing wheel 13, and the first anti-reverse wheel 14) by the action of the first banknote digging wheel 12, the first banknote rubbing wheel 13, and the first anti-reverse wheel 14. Figure 3 In the channel (indicated by the dashed line between the withdrawal slot 23 and the reversing gear 18), the banknote passes sequentially through the first elastic wheel 45 and the sensor 26. When the banknote reaches the sensor 26, the control unit notifies the pull lever 21. The pull lever 21 overcomes the return spring 20, thereby closing and causing the commutator assembly (specifically the reversing gear 18) to reach its destination. Figure 3 The working state in the middle, and then along Figure 3 The dotted line is transmitted clockwise to synchronous belt 9 (i.e., the recovery channel). Figure 3 The dotted line between the reversing gear 18 and the banknote box 42 represents the channel, which ultimately enters the banknote box 42 to realize the banknote recycling function.
[0032] The beneficial effects of this embodiment:
[0033] This application uses a synchronous belt 9 and a single motor (the drive wheel 48 is connected to the motor) to drive two sets of channels (a withdrawal channel and a forgotten item collection channel). Figure 1 and Figure 3 (The dotted lines) reduce costs and save space.
[0034] This application improves the transmission path of existing high-speed, large-amount ATMs to enable the function of retrieving items if forgotten.
[0035] This application utilizes the tension lever 21 to control the banknote transport channel, realizing a one-way channel for the upper and lower overlapping module assembly, thus solving the problem of difficult connection between the upper and lower transmission modules and the upper and lower overlapping.
