Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of storage device technology, and in particular to a thin-film medium storage device and a banknote processing equipment. Background Technology

[0002] The related technology provides a sheet media storage device including a mounting frame, a tray, and a storage box. The mounting frame has a conveying channel, and the tray is slidably connected to the mounting frame, allowing it to slide relative to the mounting frame and providing a working position and a maintenance position. The storage box is detachably mounted on and supported by the tray. The storage box has an inlet. When the tray is in the working position, the inlet aligns horizontally with the conveying channel, allowing sheet media in the conveying channel to enter the storage box for storage. When the tray is in the maintenance position, the inlet separates from the conveying channel, allowing the storage box to be removed from the tray. However, due to manufacturing errors, a vertical gap exists between the tray and the mounting frame. This causes the inlet and the conveying channel to misalign horizontally when the tray is in the working position, affecting the reliable connection between the inlet and the conveying channel and the normal operation of the sheet media storage device.

[0039] 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.

[0040] like Figures 1 to 7As shown, this embodiment provides a sheet-like media storage device 100, which includes a mounting frame 10, a tray 20, a storage box 30, and a positioning mechanism 40. The mounting frame 10 is provided with a conveying channel 11. The tray 20 is slidably connected to the mounting frame 10 so that the tray 20 can have a working position and a maintenance position relative to the mounting frame 10. The storage box 30 is detachably mounted on the tray 20 and includes an input port 31. When the tray 20 is in the working position, the input port 31 is connected to the conveying channel 11 in a first horizontal direction. When the tray 20 is in the maintenance position, the input port 31 is separated from the conveying channel 11. The positioning mechanism 40 includes a positioning member 41, which is connected to the tray 20 and its position relative to the tray 20 in the vertical direction is adjustable. The positioning member 41 is used to support the storage box 30.

[0041] In this embodiment, when the tray 20 is in the working position, if there is a gap in the vertical direction between the tray 20 and the mounting frame 10, the input port 31 of the storage box 30 mounted on the tray 20 and the conveying channel 11 of the mounting frame 10 cannot be aligned in the first horizontal direction. Since the storage box 30 is supported by the positioning member 41, the position of the positioning member 41 relative to the tray 20 in the vertical direction can be adjusted, thereby ensuring that the input port 31 of the storage box 30 and the conveying channel 11 of the mounting frame 10 are reliably aligned in the first horizontal direction. This ensures that the sheet-type media storage device 100 can operate normally and has good performance.

[0042] Preferably, the thin-film media storage device 100 further includes a slide rail assembly 50, which includes a fixed slide rail 51 and a movable slide rail 52. Both the fixed slide rail 51 and the movable slide rail 52 extend along a first horizontal direction. The fixed slide rail 51 is fixedly connected to the mounting bracket 10, and the tray 20 is fixedly connected to the movable slide rail 52. The movable slide rail 52 is slidably engaged with the fixed slide rail 51. When the movable slide rail 52 slides relative to the fixed slide rail 51, it drives the tray 20 to move along the first horizontal direction, so that the tray 20 can move along the first horizontal direction to the working position or the maintenance position.

[0043] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first horizontal direction is in Figure 1 and Figure 2 The middle label indicates the ab direction, and the vertical direction is in Figure 1 and Figure 2 The middle label indicates the ef direction.

[0044] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, one of the storage box 30 and the positioning member 41 includes a positioning groove 32 extending in a vertical direction, and the other of the storage box 30 and the positioning member 41 includes a first positioning block 411. When the storage box 30 is installed on the tray 20, the first positioning block 411 is inserted into the positioning groove 32 in a vertical direction, and the first positioning block 411 abuts against the groove wall of the positioning groove 32 in a vertical direction, so that the storage box 30 is supported by the positioning member 41.

[0045] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a positioning groove 32 is provided in the storage box 30, extending vertically. A first positioning block 411 is provided in the positioning element 41. When the storage box 30 is installed vertically downwards on the tray 20, the first positioning block 411 and the positioning groove 32 are inserted and engaged vertically, and the top wall of the positioning groove 32 abuts against the top of the first positioning block 411 vertically, thereby installing the storage box 30 on the tray 20. This arrangement guides the installation of the storage box 30 through the insertion and engagement of the first positioning block 411 and the positioning groove 32, improving the ease of installation. Furthermore, the abutment between the top of the first positioning block 411 and the top wall of the positioning groove 32 also positions the storage box 30 vertically relative to the mounting bracket 10, ensuring the accuracy of the storage box 30's installation position. Additionally, placing the positioning groove 32 in the storage box 30 and the positioning element 41 in the tray 20 facilitates the lightweight design of the storage box 30.

[0046] Optionally, in another embodiment, the positioning member 41 further includes a positioning plate located below the storage box 30 for supporting the storage box 30, thereby improving the support stability of the storage box 30 and enhancing the performance of the thin-film media storage device 100.

[0047] Alternatively, in another embodiment, the positioning groove 32 can be disposed on the positioning member 41, and the first positioning block 411 can be disposed on the storage box 30, which will not be described in detail here.

[0048] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, the tray 20 includes a receiving cavity and a side wall 21 for forming the receiving cavity. The top of the receiving cavity is provided with an opening, and the storage box 30 is detachably installed in the receiving cavity through the opening. The positioning member 41 includes a first positioning block 411, which is located in the receiving cavity and connected to the side wall 21. The position of the first positioning block 411 relative to the side wall 21 in the vertical direction is adjustable. The first positioning block 411 is used to support the storage box 30.

[0049] In this embodiment, as Figure 2As shown, the tray 20 includes several side walls 21, which together form an open receiving cavity. The receiving cavity protects the storage box 30, improving its reliability. A first positioning block 411 is adjustablely positioned on one of the side walls 21 and located inside the receiving cavity. This improves the positional stability of the first positioning block 411 relative to the tray 20, making its support of the storage box 30 more reliable and enhancing the overall positional reliability of the storage box 30.

[0050] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 As shown, the side wall 21 is provided with an opening 211, and the positioning member 41 also includes a second positioning block 412 fixedly connected to the first positioning block 411. The second positioning block 412 extends through the opening 211 to the outside of the receiving cavity. The positioning mechanism 40 also includes a first support member 42, which is connected to the outside of the side wall 21. The position of the first support member 42 relative to the side wall 21 in the vertical direction is adjustable. The first support member 42 is used to support the second positioning block 412.

[0051] In this embodiment, as Figure 3 As shown, the second positioning block 412 extends out of the receiving cavity through the opening, and the first support member 42 is disposed on the outside of the side wall 21. The first support member 42 can support the second positioning block 412, thereby ensuring that the first positioning block 411 connected to the second positioning block 412 can have good positional stability. This not only improves the support strength of the positioning member 41 for the storage box 30, but also improves the positional stability of the banknote box relative to the mounting frame 10 in the vertical direction when the thin-film media storage device 100 is working normally. Moreover, the first support member 42 is adjustablely disposed on the outside of the side wall 21. When the position of the positioning member 41 needs to be adjusted, the position of the first positioning block 411 can be indirectly adjusted by adjusting the position of the first support member 42. Thus, the position of the storage box 30 can be adjusted without removing the storage box 30, improving the flexibility and convenience of use.

[0052] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, one of the sidewall 21 and the first positioning block 411 is provided with a first elongated hole 212 and a second elongated hole 213 at intervals, both of which extend vertically. One of the sidewall 21 and the first support member 42 is provided with a third elongated hole 421 and a fourth elongated hole 422, both of which extend vertically. The positioning mechanism 40 also includes a first fastener 43, a second fastener 44, a third fastener 45, and a fourth fastener. 46. ​​The first fastener 43 passes through the first elongated hole 212 and is connected to the other of the side wall 21 and the first positioning block 411. The second fastener 44 passes through the second elongated hole 213 and is connected to the other of the side wall 21 and the first positioning block 411. The third fastener 45 passes through the third elongated hole 421 and is connected to the other of the side wall 21 and the first support member 42. The fourth fastener 46 passes through the fourth elongated hole 422 and is connected to the other of the side wall 21 and the first support member 42.

[0053] In this embodiment, a first elongated hole 212 and a second elongated hole 213 are provided on the side wall 21, and a third elongated hole 421 and a fourth elongated hole 422 are provided on the first support member 42. The first fastener 43 passes through the first elongated hole 212 and is connected to the first positioning block 411. The second fastener 44 passes through the second elongated hole 213 and is connected to the first positioning block 411. The first elongated hole 212 and the second elongated hole 213 are spaced apart along the first horizontal direction, thereby ensuring that the position of the first positioning block 411 is adjustable in the vertical direction while the first positioning block 411 has reliable positional stability. The first support member 42 is provided with a third elongated hole 421 and a fourth elongated hole 422. A third fastener 45 passes through the third elongated hole 421 and connects to the side wall 21. A fourth fastener 46 passes through the fourth elongated hole 422 and connects to the side wall 21. The third elongated hole 421 and the fourth elongated hole 422 are spaced apart along the first horizontal direction, thereby ensuring that the position of the first support member 42 is adjustable in the vertical direction while maintaining reliable positional stability. Furthermore, through the above arrangement, the position of the first support member 42 can be adjusted accordingly based on the position of the positioning member 41, ensuring that the first support member 42 provides good support for the positioning member 41 regardless of its position. This ensures that the input port 31 of the tray 20 and the conveying channel 11 of the mounting component can be reliably aligned along the first horizontal direction, ensuring reliable input or output of the sheet-like media storage device 100.

[0054] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first fastener 43, the second fastener 44, the third fastener 45 and the fourth fastener 46 are all bolts, which facilitate adjustment and provide high connection stability.

[0055] Preferably, in this embodiment, as Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, there are two of each of the third elongated holes 421 and the fourth elongated holes 422. The two third elongated holes 421 are spaced apart vertically, and the two fourth elongated holes 422 are spaced apart vertically. There are two of each of the third fasteners 45 and the fourth fasteners 46. The two third fasteners 45 and the two third elongated holes 421 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence, and the two fourth fasteners 46 and the two fourth elongated holes 422 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence. This allows the first support member 42 to be fastened by the four fasteners, improving the positional reliability of the first support member 42 and thus ensuring reliable support for the second positioning member 41.

[0056] Furthermore, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the first support member 42 includes a first support plate 423, a second support plate 424 and a third support plate 425. The first support plate 423 and the second support plate 424 are arranged opposite to each other and spaced apart along a first horizontal direction. The third support plate 425 is connected between the first support plate 423 and the second support plate 424. A third elongated hole 421 is provided in the first support plate 423 and a fourth elongated hole 422 is provided in the second support plate 424. The second positioning block 412 extends between the first support plate 423 and the second support plate 424 and is supported by the third support plate 425.

[0057] In this embodiment, a third elongated hole 421 is provided on the first support plate 423, and a third fastener 45 passes through the third elongated hole 421 to connect the first support plate 423 to the side wall 21. A fourth elongated hole 422 is provided on the second support plate 424, and a fourth fastener 46 passes through the fourth elongated hole 422 to connect the second support plate 424 to the side wall 21. The first support plate 423 and the second support plate 424 are located on both sides of the third support plate 425, thereby enabling both sides of the third support plate 425 to be connected to the side wall 21 by fasteners, which improves the reliability of the support of the third support plate 425 for the second positioning block 412.

[0058] Preferably, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5As shown, the first support plate 423 includes a first mounting plate 427 and a first limiting plate 428 connected at an angle. The second support plate 424 includes a second mounting plate 429 and a second limiting plate 430 connected at an angle. A third elongated hole 421 is provided on the first mounting plate 427, and a fourth elongated hole 422 is provided on the second mounting plate 429. The first mounting plate 427 and the second mounting plate 429 are both attached to the outer side of the side wall 21. The first limiting plate 428 and the second limiting plate 430 are parallel and spaced apart. The second positioning block 412 is located between the first limiting plate 428 and the second limiting plate 430, and the size of the second positioning block 412 along the first horizontal direction is adapted to the distance between the first limiting plate 428 and the second limiting plate 430. The first limiting plate 428 and the second limiting plate 430 can provide guidance when the second positioning plate slides, thereby improving the convenience and reliability of the position adjustment of the second positioning block 412, and facilitating the installation and positioning between the first support member 42 and the positioning member 41. Furthermore, the above-mentioned configuration can also improve the overall structural strength of the first support member 42 and extend its service life.

[0059] Preferably, such as Figure 3 As shown, the first support member 42 also includes a reinforcing plate 431, which is connected at an angle to the third support plate 425 and located between the first support plate 423 and the second support plate 424. The reinforcing plate 431 is opposite to the second positioning block 412. This arrangement not only improves the overall structural strength of the first support member 42, but also provides a certain degree of protection for the second positioning block 412, preventing it from becoming loose due to impacts, thereby ensuring the positional stability of the storage box 30.

[0060] In one embodiment, such as Figures 3 to 6 As shown, in order to improve the positional stability of the first support member 42, the positioning mechanism 40 also includes a second support member 47 and a fifth fastener 48. The second support member 47 is fixed in relative position to the side wall 21 in the vertical direction. The second support member 47 is located below the first support member 42. The first support member 42 is provided with a fastening hole. The fifth fastener 48 is fixedly inserted through the fastening hole, and after passing through the fastening hole, the fifth fastener 48 abuts against the second support member 47.

[0061] Specifically, such as Figure 6As shown, the second support member 47 is disposed on the outer side of the side wall 21 and its position relative to the side wall 21 is fixed. The first support member 42 is disposed above the second support member 47 in the vertical direction. The fifth fastener 48 is a bolt, and the fastening hole is a threaded hole 432. When the first support member 42 is adjusted to any position, the fifth fastener 48 is threadedly connected to the threaded hole 432. After the fifth fastener 48 passes through the threaded hole 432, it abuts against the second support member 47. The fifth fastener 48 can lock the relative distance between the first support member 42 and the second support member 47, thereby enabling the second support member 47 to support the first support member 42, improving the positional stability of the first support member 42, and effectively preventing the problem of instability in the position of the storage box 30 caused by the first support member 42 sliding downward along the side wall 21 under the action of gravity when the thin-film media storage device 100 is working normally. In other embodiments, the fifth fastener 48 is a self-tapping screw, and the fastening hole is a smooth hole that mates with the self-tapping screw.

[0062] Preferably, in this embodiment, such as Figure 6 As shown, the threaded hole 432 is opened in the third support plate 425, and the fifth fastener 48 is threadedly connected to the threaded hole 432 to ensure the support effect of the second support member 47 on the first support member 42.

[0063] In other embodiments, the first support member 42 further includes a nut fixedly connected to the third support plate 425, the third support plate 425 having a through hole, the axial direction of the nut being collinear with the axial direction of the through hole, and the fifth fastener 48 passing through the through hole and threadedly connected to the nut.

[0064] Preferably, such as Figure 5 As shown, the positioning mechanism 40 also includes a lock nut 49, which is located below the threaded hole 432 and threadedly connected to the fifth fastener 48. The lock nut 49 is used to lock the position of the fifth fastener 48 relative to the first support member 42, thereby improving the connection stability between the fifth fastener 48 and the first support member 42, and reducing the force on the threaded hole 432, ensuring the connection reliability between the threaded hole 432 and the fifth fastener.

[0065] Preferably, the second support member 47 is fixedly connected to the side wall 21, or the second support member 47 is only arbitrarily connected to the side wall 21 along the first horizontal direction, which will not be elaborated here.

[0066] Preferred, such as Figure 5 As shown, the second support member 47 includes a fourth support plate 472. The upper surface of the fourth support plate 472 is used to abut against the lower part of the fifth fastener 48, which can ensure that the fourth support plate 472 and the fifth fastener 48 can abut reliably, thereby ensuring the support effect of the second support member 47 on the first support member 42.

[0067] Preferred, such as Figure 5 As shown, the second support member 47 also includes a third mounting plate 473 and a fourth mounting plate 474 spaced apart along the sliding direction of the tray 20. The third mounting plate 473 is provided with a fifth elongated hole 475, and the fourth mounting plate 474 is provided with a sixth elongated hole 476. Both the fifth elongated hole 475 and the sixth elongated hole 476 extend along the first horizontal direction. The positioning mechanism 40 also includes a sixth fastener 410 and a seventh fastener 414. The sixth fastener 410 passes through the fifth elongated hole 475 and is connected to the side wall 21, and the seventh fastener 414 passes through the sixth elongated hole 476 and is connected to the side wall 21. This allows the position of the second support member 47 in the first horizontal direction to be adjusted, and the sixth fastener 410 and the seventh fastener 414 can ensure the stability and reliability of the support provided by the second support member 47 to the first support member 42.

[0068] Preferred, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the second positioning block 412 is provided with a clearance hole 413, which is used to avoid the fifth fastener 48. The fifth fastener 48 passes through the clearance hole 413 and the through hole in sequence and abuts against the second support member 47. This arrangement improves the structural compactness of the positioning mechanism 40.

[0069] In another embodiment, such as Figure 7 As shown, in order to improve the positional stability of the first support member 42, the second support member 47 is connected to the side wall 21, and the position of the second support member 47 relative to the side wall 21 is adjustable along the first horizontal direction. The first support member 42 includes an inclined first support surface 426, and the second support member 47 includes an inclined second support surface 471. The second support surface 471 is in contact with the first support surface 426.

[0070] Specifically, such as Figure 7 As shown, both the first support surface 426 and the second support surface 471 form an angle with the first horizontal direction. This allows the first support member 42 to be adjusted in the vertical direction relative to the side wall 21, and the second support member 47 can be adjusted in the horizontal direction relative to the side wall 21 so that the second support surface 471 fits against the first support surface 426. This reliably supports the first support member 42 and prevents the first support member 42 from sliding downward along the side wall 21 under the action of gravity, thus improving the reliability of use.

[0071] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, there are two positioning mechanisms 40, which are spaced apart along the second horizontal direction. The positioning elements 41 of the two positioning mechanisms 40 are used to support the two ends of the storage box 30 along the horizontal direction. The second horizontal direction is set at an angle to the first horizontal direction.

[0072] In this embodiment, the tray 20 has several side walls 21, including two side walls 21 spaced apart along the second horizontal direction. Each of the two side walls 21 spaced apart along the second horizontal direction is provided with a positioning mechanism 40. By providing two positioning mechanisms 40 spaced apart along the second horizontal direction, the position of the positioning blocks of the two positioning mechanisms 40 relative to the mounting frame 10 in the vertical direction can be adjusted, thereby making the support stability of the storage box 30 higher and facilitating the uniformity of the height of both sides of the storage box 30 along the second horizontal direction. This further improves the reliability of the alignment between the input port 31 of the storage box 30 and the conveying channel 11 of the mounting frame 10 along the first horizontal direction.

[0073] Specifically, in this embodiment, the second horizontal direction is... Figure 1 and Figure 2 The middle label indicates the cd direction.

[0074] Preferably, in this embodiment, the receiving cavity has a square structure, and the first horizontal direction and the second horizontal direction are perpendicular, without specific limitations.

[0075] like Figure 8 As shown, this embodiment also provides a banknote processing device, including a banknote recognition device 200 and the aforementioned sheet-like media storage device 100. The banknote recognition device 200 is used to collect banknote information, and the storage box 30 of the sheet-like media storage device 100 is used to store banknotes recognized by the banknote recognition device 200. This banknote processing device can ensure that the input port 31 of the storage box 30 and the conveying channel 11 of the mounting frame 10 are always aligned in the first horizontal direction when the tray 20 is in the working position by adjusting the position of the positioning member 41 relative to the tray 20 in the vertical direction, thereby ensuring the performance of the banknote processing device.

[0076] Preferably, the banknote processing device further includes a safe 500, which is located below the banknote recognition device 200. The sheet-like media storage device 100 is located inside the safe 500, which can ensure the security performance of the sheet-like media storage device 100, thereby ensuring the storage security of the sheet-like media.

[0077] Preferably, the banknote processing device further includes a banknote insertion device 300 and a banknote dispensing device 400. The banknote insertion device 300 is used to receive banknotes inserted by the user, and the banknote dispensing device 400 is used to output banknotes to the user, so as to ensure the normal use of the banknote processing device.
