Description

Interlocking structure of the upper return section and retract gate of a financial automation machine

[0001] The present invention relates to an interlocking structure between an upper conveyor and a retract gate of a financial automation device, and more specifically, to an interlocking structure between an upper conveyor and a retract gate of a financial automation device that can implement an interlocking operation of the rotational operation of the upper conveyor for gripping a bundle of media and an opening and closing operation of the retract gate for opening and closing a retract passage for media lost due to non-acceptance of the head.

[0002] A withdrawal machine among financial automation devices that withdraws media by returning it in bundle units includes a temporary stacking unit in which media is stacked, a throat unit that returns the stacked bundle of media in the withdrawal direction, and a recovery unit that recovers a retract right if the customer does not receive the withdrawn media.

[0003] In addition, the device is configured to convey a bundle of media stacked in the aforementioned stacking section through the throat section, and is provided with an upper conveying section and a lower conveying section for pressing both sides of the bundle of media. The upper conveying section is configured to rotate in an upward and downward direction around a hinge on one side, so that it is rotated upward when the media is stacked, and rotates downward after the stacking of the media is completed to clamp the upper surface of the stacked bundle of media.

[0004] In addition, the system is configured to open and close a retract passage for recovering a lost retract right when the customer does not receive the aforementioned withdrawn medium, and the retract passage is equipped with a retract gate that rotates in both directions around an upper hinge.

[0005] Conventional financial automation equipment had a problem in that the drive unit for rotating the upper conveyor and the drive unit for opening and closing the retract gate were separately provided, resulting in a complex drive structure and increased manufacturing costs.

[0006] Prior art related to financial automation devices for withdrawing and recovering lost media is disclosed in Korean Registered Patent No. 10-1077317.

[0007] The present invention has been devised to solve the aforementioned problems, and aims to provide an interlocking structure between an upper conveyor and a retract gate of a financial automation device, wherein the rotational operation of the upper conveyor and the opening and closing operation of the retract gate can be implemented in conjunction by a single driving unit.

[0008] The interlocking structure of the upper conveyor and the retract gate of the financial automation device of the present invention for implementing the purpose described above comprises: an upper conveyor that rotates to pinch the upper surface of a medium stacked in a single stack; a retract gate that rotates to open and close a medium recovery passage formed on one side of the single stack; and a link that connects the upper conveyor and the retract gate, wherein when the upper conveyor rotates downward, the retract gate operates in conjunction to rotate upward, and when the upper conveyor rotates upward, the retract gate operates in conjunction to rotate downward.

[0009] The upper conveyor unit is rotated around a first axis formed on one side, and a second axis is formed on the other side of the upper conveyor unit; the link is rotated around a third axis, and the retract gate is rotated around a fourth axis; the link may have a second axis guide hole into which the second axis of the upper conveyor unit is inserted and movable, and a fourth axis guide hole into which the fourth axis is inserted and movable, and the retract gate may have a connecting pin guide hole into which a connecting pin protruding from the link is inserted and movable.

[0010] The third axis is provided at a position spaced apart from the other side of the second axis, and the fourth axis is provided at a position spaced apart from the lower side of the third axis; the second axis guide hole is formed in the shape of an elongated hole in an arc direction centered on the first axis, and the fourth axis guide hole can be formed in the shape of an elongated hole in an arc direction centered on the third axis.

[0011] When the upper conveyor is rotated in one direction around the first axis, the second axis moves from one side to the other of the second axis guide hole and transmits force to the link, causing the link to rotate in the opposite direction of the one direction around the third axis, and in conjunction with the rotation of the link, the retract gate receives force through the connecting pin and can rotate in the same direction as the link.

[0012] When the upper conveyor unit rotates downward, the second axis of the upper conveyor unit moves from the first section forming one side of the second axis guide hole formed in the link to the second section forming the other side, and rotates the link upward around the third axis, and at the time when the second axis passes the first section and enters the second section, the retract gate is positioned by rotating upward to the maximum extent around the fourth axis.

[0013] The upper conveyor is supported by an elastic member that applies a downward elastic force, and when the second axis is located in the first section, the second axis guide hole is positioned in a direction that forms a predetermined angle with the direction of the elastic force applied by the elastic member, and at the time when the second axis passes the first section and enters the second section, the second axis guide hole is positioned in a direction parallel to the direction of the elastic force applied by the elastic member, so that after the second axis enters the second section, the upper conveyor can be further rotated downward by the elastic force of the elastic member without interference with the link.

[0014] After the retract gate is positioned with maximum upward rotation, the retract gate may be configured to maintain the maximum upward rotation state even if the upper return part is rotated further downward.

[0015] When the upper return unit moves downward to a position that presses the top of the maximum number of stackable units in the stack unit, the retract gate can be rotated to a position where it is rotated upward to the maximum extent.

[0016] A support shaft is coupled to the lower part of the upper conveyor, and the outer surface of a cam formed on a cam gear contacts the lower part of the support shaft. The cam gear is rotated by a drive unit, and the position where the cam contacts the support shaft varies according to the phase of the angle at which the cam gear rotates, thereby causing the support shaft and the upper conveyor to move in the vertical direction. The link and the retract gate can be moved in conjunction with the movement of the upper conveyor.

[0017] According to the interlocking structure of the upper conveyor unit and the retract gate of the financial automation device according to the present invention, the rotational operation of the upper conveyor unit and the opening and closing operation of the retract gate can be simultaneously implemented by a single driving unit and link structure, thereby simplifying the structure of the device.

[0018] In addition, even if the upper return unit moves downward only to a position where it presses the top of the maximum number of stackable units in the temporary stack unit, the retract gate moves to a fully open position, thereby avoiding interference between the medium and the retract gate during the retract operation of lost media, and allowing the media retrieval operation to be performed smoothly.

[0060] The configuration and operation of a preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the attached drawings.

[0061] Referring to FIG. 1, the financial automation device (1) according to the present invention comprises a main body frame (1000), a horizontal conveyor unit (2000) provided horizontally on the upper part thereof, and a vertical conveyor unit (3000) connected downward from the rear of the horizontal conveyor unit (2000).

[0062] Inside the above financial automation device (1), there is a recovery unit (800) in which withdrawal rejection rights or customer's uncollected rights are stored, and a plurality of media storage units (1100) stacked below the recovery unit (800).

[0063] The media withdrawn from the plurality of media storage units (110) is returned through the vertical return unit (3000). Among the media being withdrawn, normal rights are returned to the withdrawal unit (S) by passing through the horizontal return unit (2000), the one-way stack unit (400), and the throat unit (500) by switching the diverter (830) provided in the branching unit (820) in one direction. Among the media being withdrawn, abnormal rights are guided downward by switching the diverter (830) provided in the branching unit (820) in the opposite direction and are stored in the withdrawal rejection right storage unit (800b) of the recovery unit (800). Retract rights that are not received by the customer for a certain period of time, even though the media withdrawn to the withdrawal unit (S) is passed through the throat unit (500) and the one-time stack unit (400) and are recovered to the retract right storage unit (800a) of the recovery unit (800).

[0064] Referring to FIGS. 2 to 4, the financial automation device (1) to which the present invention is applied comprises an upper conveying unit (100) and a lower conveying unit (200) for conveying media by gripping both sides of the media, a bill stopper (300) for stacking media, a temporary stacking unit (400) in which media to be withdrawn is stacked and stored, a throat unit (500) in which bundle media stacked in the temporary stacking unit (400) is conveyed in the withdrawal direction, and a retract path (500, 400) in which, if the bundle media conveyed to the withdrawal unit (S) after passing through the throat unit (500) is not received, the unreceived retract ticket is conveyed in the opposite direction of the withdrawal direction.

[0065] The upper conveying unit (100) is configured to convey and clamp the upper surface of a bundle of media and includes a first upper pulley (110) and a second upper pulley (120) provided at positions spaced apart on both sides, an upper belt (130) that travels along the first upper pulley (110) and the second upper pulley (120) and clamps the upper surface of a stacked bundle of media, a first upper conveying unit (150) provided on one side of the clamp hinge (140) and a second upper conveying unit (160) provided on the other side of the clamp hinge (150) that rotates in an up-and-down direction around the clamp hinge (140).

[0066] The first upper conveyor (150) rotates up and down from one side around the clamp hinge (140) and conveys a bundle of media between the first stack section (400) and the throat section (500), and the second upper conveyor (160) rotates up and down from the other side around the clamp hinge (140) and conveys a bundle of media between the throat section (500) and the withdrawal section (S).

[0067] A first elastic member (151) is coupled to one side of the first upper conveying unit (150) equipped with the first upper pulley (110) to apply elastic force so that the first upper conveying unit (150) rotates downward around the clamp hinge (140), and a second elastic member (161) is coupled to the other side of the second upper conveying unit (160) equipped with the second upper pulley (120) to apply elastic force so that the second upper conveying unit (160) rotates downward around the clamp hinge (140).

[0068] The upper conveyor (100) is rotated upward while the medium is being stacked in the one-time stacking section (400) so that the medium passes through the lower space of the upper conveyor (100) and is stacked, and when the stacking of the medium in the one-time stacking section (400) is completed, it is rotated downward to grip the upper surface of the stacked bundle of medium.

[0069] The lower conveying unit (200) is configured to convey while gripping the lower surface of a bundle of media and includes a first lower pulley (210) and a second lower pulley (220) provided at positions spaced apart on both sides, and a lower belt (230) that grips the lower surface of a stacked bundle of media while traveling along the first lower pulley (210) and the second lower pulley (220).

[0070] The above-mentioned bill stopper (300) is provided in a temporary stack section (400) where media are stacked and stored, and functions to block the leading edge of media entering the temporary stack section (400) to align the media in stacks. The above-mentioned bill stopper (300) is provided at the boundary between the temporary stack section (400) and the throat section (500), and is provided to be rotatable in both directions around a bill stopper hinge (310) formed at the top. The above-mentioned bill stopper hinge (310) is coupled in a fixed state to the main body of the financial automation device (1).

[0071] When the bundle medium is returned in the withdrawal or retract direction, the bill stopper (300) rotates around the bill stopper hinge (320) in the direction of the pushing force as the bundle medium is returned, so that the bundle medium can be returned without obstruction through the one-way stack section (400) and the throat section (500).

[0072] The front surface of the above-mentioned stack portion (400) is formed by the above-mentioned bill stopper (300), and the rear surface of the above-mentioned stack portion (400) is formed by the retract gate (610).

[0073] The above retract gate (610) is provided to be rotatable in both directions around the upper retract gate hinge (611). The above retract gate (610) rotates downward while the medium is stacked in the one-cycle stack section (400) so that the rear side of the one-cycle stack section (400) is blocked, and rotates upward while the retract ticket is being retrieved so that the retract ticket not received by the customer passes through the medium retrieval passage (801) formed in the lower space of the above retract gate (610) and is retrieved.

[0074] A stacking section (700) for stacking the medium toward the inside of the stacking section (400) is provided on the side where the medium enters the upper side of the stacking section (400). The stacking section (700) may include a roller (710) combined with a plurality of stacking sheets (711) that are spread out radially.

[0075] As shown in FIG. 2, after the medium (M) is stacked in the temporary stacking section (400), as shown in FIG. 3, the stacked bundle of medium (M) is conveyed in the withdrawal direction by the withdrawal direction rotation drive of the upper conveying section (100) and the lower conveying section (200), as indicated by the arrow. At this time, the bill stopper (300) is pushed and rotated by the force pushing the bundle of medium (M) in the withdrawal direction, and the bundle of medium (M) passes through the bill stopper (300) and is conveyed in the withdrawal direction toward the throat section (500).

[0076] If a customer does not receive the bundle of media (M) withdrawn from the withdrawal unit (S) within a set time, as shown in FIG. 4, the retract ticket is returned in a direction opposite to the withdrawal direction by the rotational drive of the upper return unit (100) and the lower return unit (200) along the retract path connecting the throat unit (500) and the one-time stack unit (400). At this time, the bill stopper (300) is pushed and rotated by the force pushing the bundle of media (M) in the retract direction, and the bundle of media (M) passes through the bill stopper (300), passes through the one-time stack unit (400), and passes through the media recovery passage (801) formed on the lower side by the upward movement of the retract gate (610) to be recovered.

[0077] As illustrated in FIGS. 2 to 4, while the medium (M) is stacked in the stacking section (400), the upper conveyor section (100) is rotated upward so that a space for stacking the medium (M) is provided below it, and the retract gate (611) is rotated downward so that the medium recovery passage (801) is blocked. Meanwhile, while the withdrawal or retract operation of the medium (M) is performed, the upper conveyor section (100) is rotated downward to clamp and clamp the upper surface of the stacked medium (M), and in conjunction with the rotation operation of the upper conveyor section (100), the retract gate (610) is rotated upward so that the medium recovery passage (801) is opened.

[0078] Hereinafter, the interlocking structure of the upper return unit (100) and the retract gate (610) of the financial automation device of the present invention will be explained. In the following description, the upper return unit (100) is used to refer to the same object as the first upper return unit (150) constituting it.

[0079] Referring to FIGS. 5 to 11, the interlocking structure of the upper conveyor unit (100) and the retract gate (610) of the financial automation device (1) of the present invention comprises: an upper conveyor unit (100) that rotates to pinch the upper surface of a medium (M) stacked in a single stack unit (400); a retract gate (610) that rotates to open and close a medium recovery passage (801) formed on one side of the single stack unit (400); and a link (630) that connects the upper conveyor unit (100) and the retract gate (610), and operates such that when the upper conveyor unit (100) rotates downward, the retract gate (610) rotates upward in conjunction, and when the upper conveyor unit (100) rotates upward, the retract gate (610) rotates downward in conjunction.

[0080] The upper conveyor unit (100) receives the driving force from the driving unit (620) and rotates in the up and down direction, and the link (630) and the retract gate (610) rotate in conjunction with the movement of the upper conveyor unit (100).

[0081] In an embodiment, a first connecting gear (622), a second connecting gear (623), and a cam gear (624) are sequentially geared to the drive shaft gear (621) of the drive unit (620), and a support shaft (152) coupled to the lower part of the upper conveying unit (100) contacts the outer surface of the cam (624a) formed on the cam gear (624). In this case, a roller (152a) to which the support shaft (152) is coupled may be configured to contact the outer surface of the cam (624a).

[0082] One end of the first connecting shaft (625) is connected to the first connecting gear (622), and the third connecting gear (626) can be connected to the other end of the first connecting shaft (625).

[0083] The cam gear (624) may be provided as a pair symmetrically on both sides of the upper conveyor (100), and the pair of cam gears (624) are coupled to both ends of the second connecting shaft (627). The cam gear (624) provided on one side is gear-coupled to the third connecting gear (626).

[0084] As described above, the cam gear (624) is rotated by the drive unit (620), and the position where the cam (624a) contacts the support shaft (152) varies according to the phase of the angle at which the cam gear (624) is rotated, thereby causing the support shaft (152) and the upper return unit (100) to move in the up and down direction, and the link (630) and the retract gate (610) move in conjunction with the movement of the upper return unit (100).

[0085] FIGS. 5 and 7 show the operating state of the upper carrier (100) and the retract gate (610) when the medium (M) is stacked in the one-time stack section (400); FIGS. 8 and 9 show the operating state of the upper carrier (100) and the retract gate (610) when the upper carrier (100) has moved downward to a position that presses the upper end of the maximum number of stackable items in the one-time stack section (400); FIGS. 10 and 11 show the operating state of the upper carrier (100) and the retract gate (610) when the upper carrier (100) has moved downward to the maximum extent to the bottom surface of the one-time stack section (400).

[0086] The upper conveyor (100) is rotated around a first axis (140, clamp hinge axis) formed on one side, and a second axis (111, first pulley axis) is formed on the other side of the upper conveyor (100), the link (630) is rotated around a third axis (631, link axis), and the retract gate (610) is rotated around a fourth axis (611, retract gate rotation axis).

[0087] The third axis (631) is provided at a position spaced apart from the other side of the second axis (111), and the fourth axis (611) is provided at a position spaced apart from the lower side of the third axis (631). The second axis guide hole (632) is formed in the shape of an elongated hole in an arc direction centered on the first axis (140), and the fourth axis guide hole (633) is formed in the shape of an elongated hole in an arc direction centered on the third axis (631).

[0088] Additionally, the link (630) may have a guide pin guide hole (635) formed in the shape of an arc-shaped slot centered on the third axis (631), and a guide pin (636) for guiding the rotational movement of the link (630) may be provided in a fixed position inside the guide pin guide hole (635).

[0089] Meanwhile, a first drive pulley (171) and a second drive pulley (172) are each connected to one end of the first shaft (140) and the second shaft (111), respectively, and the first drive pulley (171) and the second drive pulley (172) are connected by a drive belt (173) to transmit power, and the aforementioned first upper pulley (110) is connected to the middle part of the first shaft (140).

[0090] Referring to FIG. 6, the link (630) has a second axis guide hole (632) into which the second axis (111) of the upper return unit (100) is inserted and movable, and a fourth axis guide hole (633) into which the fourth axis (611) is inserted and movable, and the retract gate (610) has a connecting pin guide hole (612) into which a connecting pin (634) protruding from the link (630) is inserted and movable.

[0091] When the upper conveyor unit (100) rotates in one direction around the first axis (140), the second axis (111) moves from one side of the second axis guide hole (632) to the other side and transmits force to the link (630), causing the link (630) to rotate in the opposite direction of the one direction around the third axis (631), and in conjunction with the rotation of the link (630), the retract gate (610) receives force through the connecting pin (634) and rotates in the same direction as the link (630).

[0092] When the upper conveyor unit (100) rotates downward, the second axis (111) of the upper conveyor unit (100) moves from the first section (632a), which forms one side of the second axis guide hole (632) formed in the link (630), to the second section (632b), which forms the other side, and rotates the link (630) upward around the third axis (631). At the time when the second axis (111) passes the first section (632a) and enters the second section (632b), the retract gate (610) is positioned with maximum upward rotation around the fourth axis (611). When the retract gate (610) is in a state of maximum upward rotation, the bundle of media (M) being retracted can pass through the media recovery passage (801) formed below it without interfering with the retract gate (610).

[0093] Meanwhile, the upper conveying part (100) is supported by an elastic member (151; see FIG. 2) that exerts a downward elastic force, and with the second axis (111) positioned in the first section (632a) of the second axis guide hole (632), the second axis guide hole (632) is positioned in a direction that forms a predetermined angle with the direction of the elastic force exerted by the elastic member (151).

[0094] When the upper conveyor (100) is further rotated downwards and the second axis (111) passes through the first section (632a) of the second axis guide hole (632) and enters the second section (632b), the second axis guide hole (632) is positioned in a direction parallel to the direction of the elastic force acting by the elastic member (151), and after the second axis (111) enters the second section (632b), the upper conveyor (100) can be further rotated downwards without interference with the link (630) by the elastic force of the elastic member (151).

[0095] After the retract gate (610) is positioned with its maximum upward rotation, even if the upper return unit (100) is rotated further downward, the retract gate (610) maintains its maximum upward rotation state.

[0096] As described above, even if the upper return unit (100) moves downward only to a position where it presses the upper end of the maximum number of stackable items in the temporary stack unit (400), the retract gate (610) can be rotated to a position where it is rotated to the maximum upward. At this time, even if the upper return unit (100) is rotated further downward, the retract gate (610) remains in a state of maximum upward rotation and waits. Therefore, when the customer does not receive the withdrawn bundle media (M) and the retract ticket is returned along the retract path (500, 400) in the opposite direction of the withdrawal, even if the upper return unit moves upward to the height of the maximum number of stackable items in the temporary stack unit (400), the gate (610) can maintain a state of maximum upward rotation, allowing the retract ticket to pass smoothly through the media recovery passage (801) without interference.

[0097] According to the configuration of the present invention as described above, the rotational operation of the upper return unit (100) and the opening and closing operation of the retract gate (610) can be simultaneously implemented by a single driving unit (620) and link (630) structure, thereby simplifying the structure of the device and enabling the smooth operation of retrieving uncollected retract tickets from customers.

[0098] As explained above, the present invention is not limited to the embodiments described above, and obvious modifications can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the technical spirit of the present invention as claimed in the claims, and such modifications fall within the scope of the present invention.
