[0004] The aforementioned banknote sorting machine has the following disadvantages: 1. According to the appendix of the aforementioned patent document... Figure 2 It is known that the banknote conveying path of the banknote sorting machine is V-shaped. Such a banknote conveying path results in a loose and not compact internal structure of the sorting machine, which is not suitable for small sorting machines; 2. The counterfeit detection device and banknote channel cannot be opened. If banknotes get stuck or impurities appear inside, they cannot be repaired or cleaned smoothly, affecting practicality. Utility Model Content

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide a semi-horizontal banknote sorting machine that addresses the shortcomings of the prior art by arranging the counterfeit detection mechanism in layers from top to bottom, forming a compact, longitudinally reciprocating banknote transport path, which is more suitable for small sorting machines.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a semi-horizontal banknote sorting machine, including a frame, a banknote feeding mechanism at the rear end of the frame, a banknote dispensing mechanism at the front end of the frame, a counterfeit detection mechanism and a banknote sorting mechanism between the banknote feeding mechanism and the banknote dispensing mechanism, the banknote dispensing mechanism including a first banknote dispensing mechanism and a second banknote dispensing mechanism distributed vertically, a drive mechanism providing power to the entire machine below the banknote feeding mechanism, the counterfeit detection mechanism including, from top to bottom, a rotatable light source support assembly, a banknote verification platform, an upper channel plate assembly, a rotatable banknote feeding channel assembly, and a rotatable lower channel plate assembly, the light source support assembly including a first banknote dispensing wheel assembly serving as a flipping axis, and a light source support mounted on the first banknote dispensing wheel assembly and capable of rotating around it, the counterfeit detection mechanism including a first banknote dispensing wheel assembly serving as a flipping axis, and a second banknote dispensing mechanism.

The banknote feeding gap is located at the output end of the banknote feeding mechanism. A second banknote dispensing roller assembly is provided between the light source bracket and the banknote verification platform. The light source bracket, the banknote verification platform, and the second banknote dispensing roller assembly form a first banknote verification channel for banknote transportation. A second banknote verification channel is formed between the banknote feeding channel assembly and the upper channel plate assembly. A third banknote verification channel is formed between the banknote feeding channel assembly and the lower channel plate assembly. The banknote sorting mechanism is located at both the output end of the lower channel plate assembly and the input end of the banknote dispensing mechanism. Banknotes that are identified as genuine by the counterfeit detection mechanism are transported to the first banknote dispensing mechanism through the banknote sorting mechanism.

One end of the upper flat plate is integrally formed with an upwardly extending first arc-shaped surface, and the other end is integrally formed with a downwardly extending second arc-shaped surface. The second banknote pressing roller assembly is disposed on the second arc-shaped surface. The second banknote pressing roller assembly includes a second banknote pressing shaft and a plurality of second bearings spaced apart and sleeved on the second banknote pressing shaft. The second arc-shaped surface has bearing grooves for the second bearings to pass through. The second bearings pass through the second arc-shaped surface and cooperate with the banknote feeding channel assembly to transport banknotes.

5. The semi-horizontal sorting machine according to claim 1, characterized in that: The banknote feeding channel assembly includes a channel frame and a belt drive device mounted on the channel frame. The belt drive device includes a first drive shaft and a second drive shaft passing through both sides of the channel frame in the width direction. The two ends of the first drive shaft are connected to the frame as a turning shaft, and a plurality of first synchronous pulleys are spaced apart on it. The two ends of the second drive shaft have gaps with the inner wall of the frame, and a second synchronous pulley is mounted on it corresponding to the first synchronous pulley. A belt is provided between the first synchronous pulley and the second synchronous pulley. The first synchronous pulley abuts against the upper channel plate assembly and the lower channel plate assembly, respectively, and the second synchronous pulley abuts against the lower channel plate assembly.

6. The semi-horizontal sorting machine according to claim 1, characterized in that: The lower channel plate assembly includes a lower channel plate, which includes a lower flat plate. One end of the lower flat plate has an integrally formed third arc-shaped surface extending upward, and the other end has a claw plate extending towards the second banknote dispensing mechanism. The end of the third arc-shaped surface is provided with a first support shaft serving as a flipping axis. The lower side of the lower flat plate is provided with a channel plate fixing structure that restricts its rotation. The channel plate fixing structure includes two rectangular frames spaced apart on the lower side. Each rectangular frame has a partition surface that divides the frame into two parts. A pin is provided on the partition surface. One end of the pin extends out of the rectangular frame and inserts into the frame, and the other end has a pull buckle that is slidably connected to the rectangular frame.

7. The semi-horizontal sorting machine according to claim 6, characterized in that: Below the third arc-shaped surface, there are several spaced second banknote pressing rollers. The second banknote pressing rollers pass through the third arc-shaped surface and cooperate with the banknote feeding channel assembly. Below the claw plate, there is a third banknote pressing roller assembly. The banknote pressing roller of the third banknote pressing roller assembly passes through the claw plate and cooperates with the banknote feeding channel assembly.

8. The semi-horizontal sorting machine according to claim 1, characterized in that: The driving mechanism includes a first motor and a second motor respectively disposed on the inner walls of both sides of the frame. The banknote feeding mechanism is provided with a banknote twisting wheel assembly. The output end of the first motor is synchronously driven with the first banknote output shaft of the first banknote output wheel assembly and the banknote twisting shaft of the banknote twisting wheel assembly. The output end of the second motor is synchronously driven with the second banknote output shaft of the second banknote output wheel assembly.

9. The semi-horizontal sorting machine according to any one of claims 1-8, characterized in that: The frame includes two vertically arranged side covers, a top cover that flips between the side covers, and a base plate fixed between the side covers. A second support shaft, serving as the flipping axis of the top cover, passes through the side covers. The inner side of the top cover has a first hook that engages with the second support shaft. The inner wall of the side cover has a pin. The top cover has a second hook on the side away from the first hook. When the top cover is placed on the side cover, the second hook engages with the pin. The base plate includes a first base plate and a second base plate spaced apart. A flip-up bottom plate is provided between the two. The upper end face of the bottom plate is in contact with the lower end face of the base plate. The two sides of the bottom plate have rotating hooks that are rotatably connected to the side covers. The rotating hooks are located above the second base plate. The lower end face of the first base plate has a magnet that attracts the bottom plate.
