Abstract:
An ink-staining anti-theft cash box includes a cash box mounted in a host machine for receiving and storing bills, an ink-jet module and an anti-theft security device consisting of a gas cylinder, a needle valve unit, a drive unit and a trigger unit. When the trigger unit detects abnormal separation of the cash box from the host machine, the trigger unit is triggered, and the drive unit is activated to move the gas cylinder toward the needle valve unit from a first position to a second position where an air seal diaphragm of the gas cylinder is pierced by the needle valve unit, and the compressed gas of the gas cylinder is released through an ink tub into an ink cartridge to force an ink out of a nozzle assembly of the ink-jet module for staining storage bills in the box body, enhancing the security level of the cash box.
Abstract:
A dual-passage auto-search bill acceptor includes an acceptor housing including a lower bill-inlet passage, an upper bill-outlet passage, a bill-presser and a bill-transfer mechanism mounted for transferring a bill through the bill-inlet passage to the bill-presser, a cash box mounted in a rear bottom side of the acceptor housing, and a bill dispenser mounted at a top side of the acceptor housing and including a bill-return passage in communication with the bill-inlet passage and the bill-outlet passage, a storage module with a first bill-receiving wheel, a register module with a second bill-receiving wheel and a control gate biasable to open and close a bill passage between the storage module and the register module for enabling the first bill-receiving wheel to take up bills for storage or the second bill-receiving wheel to take up bills for giving change.
Abstract:
A coin hopper includes a coin-dispensing unit including a hopper defining a coin outlet, a rotating disk, a power drive, a sensor module and a circuit module for dispensing coins having different thicknesses, and a coin-delivering presser mounted in the hopper and including an elastic member and a float rotatably supported on the elastic member for pressing on one thick coin or thin coin in the rotating disk, enabling the coins to be individually and smoothly delivered to the coin outlet for dispensing and avoiding a coin stuck problem.
Abstract:
A light-emitting mounting structure for valuable document acceptor includes a main unit defining a front opening and a bill passage, LEDs mounted in the main unit and respectively arranged at opposing top and bottom sides relative to the front opening, a face panel mounted at the front side of the main unit and defining a bill insertion slot having a diverging front open side for the insertion of a valuable document into the bill passage, light diffuser panels respectively mounted in the face panel for diffusing light toward the diverging front open side of the bill insertion slot, and a light guide plate mounted in the face panel and adapted to guide emitted light from the LEDs toward the light diffuser panels. This design allows adjustment of the amount of installed LEDs and their installation locations.
Abstract:
A bill jam troubleshooting employed in a bill acceptor used in a consumer system includes the step of displaying an error message when a fake bill is identified by a sampling and validation module, the step of driving the transmission mechanism to carry the inserted bill back and forth over a validation zone repeatedly twice when a bill jam is detected, and the step of controlling the transmission mechanism to return the inserted bill to the bill slot. Thus, the invention improves the function and effect on the overall use of the product, and enhances the advantages and opportunities of commodity sales channels to increase product competitiveness.
