Abstract:
An arrangement for depositing valuable documents includes provisions for feeding the documents through an opening via intermediate storage between two mutually coacting belts (13, 14) to another opening leading to a storage space (18) of the arrangement. A command device can be operated to control the function of the arrangement from an external location. The coacting belts (13, 14) are part of an intermediate storage device (131-141-20) which is pivotally mounted in a housing (16), allowing an infeed-and-outfeed opening (15) between the two coacting belts to be positionally adjusted to one of the openings, either in response to a command from the command device (34) or in response to a signal from a sensor (17) adjacent a document transport path in the proximity of the intermediate storage device (131-141-20).

The first control circuit includes a first connecting portion to which the first power supply cable is connected and a first hot plug-in circuit that is connected to the first connecting portion. The second control circuit includes a second connecting portion to which the second power supply cable is connected and a second hot plug-in circuit that is connected to the second connecting portion.
Abstract:
The paper sheet handling apparatus includes a base module and an extension module connected to the base module. The base module includes a feeding unit, a first transport unit, a recognition unit that recognizes the paper sheet, first-type stacking units arranged along a first direction for stacking a paper sheet and having an opening to remove the stacked paper sheet, and a control unit that controls transport of the paper sheet based on a recognition result obtained in the recognition unit. The extension module includes a second transport unit that transports inside the extension module a paper sheet discharged from the base module by the first transport unit, and second-type stacking units arranged along a second direction different from the first direction and having an opening to remove the stacked paper sheet. The control unit controls the first-type stacking unit and the second-type stacking unit to sort and stack the paper sheet.
Abstract:
An objective of the present disclosure is to prevent paper sheets from being folded or damaged when the paper sheets are stacked. A paper sheet stacking mechanism (banknote stacking mechanism 50) includes stacking wheels 52, rotary rollers 54, a transport mechanism 70 configured to insert a paper sheet between vanes 52b of the stacking wheels, and a guide (center guide 55) having a guide surface 551 configured to guide the paper sheet. The guide surface has a curved shape having a diameter about a rotary shaft, and the diameter gradually increases from an upstream side toward a downstream side in a rotation direction of the stacking wheels.
Abstract:
A sheet paper conveyor includes pairs of conveyor guides that form a sheet paper conveyance path between guide surfaces which face each other with a predetermined conveyance path width between them and which are parallel to each other, and that are engaged with end portions of pairs of connection-side conveyor guides that form a conveyance path for the sheet paper using connection subject conveyance path guide surfaces that face each other with the conveyance path width between them and are parallel to each other, and with one end portions in a conveyance direction of the sheet paper. Supporting portions rotatably support the pairs of conveyor guides in accordance with positions of the pairs of connection-side conveyor guides such that the conveyance path width is maintained and such that the parallel state between the guide surfaces is maintained.
Abstract:
Exemplary embodiments are disclosed herein for processing one or more sheets of sheet material in a deposit include various systems and processes. The systems and processes include receiving a sheet in a sheet-accepting device. Further, the systems and processes include detecting, by a sensor, characteristic information about the sheet. The characteristic information indicates whether the sheet is anomalous. The systems and processes also include encoding, by an encoding device, the sheet based on the characteristic information detected by the sensor. The encoding includes encoding the sheet with anomaly information when the characteristic information indicates that the sheet is anomalous. The anomaly information identifies a reason for indicating that the sheet is anomalous. Moreover, the systems and processes include disposing the encoded sheet in a container for further processing when the characteristic information indicates that the sheet is anomalous.
Abstract:
A banknote accommodating device includes a box body, a box door and a banknote inlet. A movable guide plate in the box body is arranged below the banknote inlet through a rotating shaft, and has a guide surface facing the banknote inlet, and an included angle between the guide surface and a vertical direction ranges from 0 degree to 20 degrees, an elastic element is provided on a back surface of the guide surface, and provides a thrust to rotate the movable guide plate counterclockwise. The box door is provided with a guide rib which forms an included angle with the vertical direction, and a stacking surface is provided at the bottom of the box body and forms an included angle with a horizontal direction, and a space for stacking banknotes vertically is formed between the guide surface, the guide rib and the stacking surface.
Abstract:
A paper sheet stacking mechanism 50 includes a stacking wheel 52, a roller 54 that is disposed outward from the stacking wheel 52 so as to be coaxially aligned with the stacking wheel 52 and that is rotatable about a shaft 53 at a greater angular velocity than that of the stacking wheel 52, and a transport unit that is configured to transport a paper sheet to the gap between two adjacent vanes 52b of the stacking wheel 52. The transport unit is located such that a discharge position is disposed outward from the outer periphery of the base 52a of the stacking wheel 52 and inward of the circular region defined by the tips of the vanes 52b of the stacking wheel 52 during the rotation of the stacking wheel 52, when viewed in the axial direction of the shaft 53 of the stacking wheel 52.
Abstract:
A banknote handling apparatus that performs a depositing handling or a depositing/dispensing handling by transporting banknotes along a transport path includes a recognizing unit that recognizes an inserted banknotes; a deposit acceptability judging unit that determines, based on a recognition result obtained by the recognizing unit, whether the banknotes is acceptable for deposit; a reject reason identifying unit that identifies a reject reason of rejected banknotes that is determined to be unacceptable for deposit by the deposit acceptability judging unit; and a dispensing handling unit that sorts and dispenses the rejected banknotes based on the reject cause identified by the reject cause identifying unit.
