Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a paper sheet accumulating apparatus incorporated in a transaction processing apparatus such as an ATM (automatic teller machine) or a money changing machine installed in a financial institution, and more particularly, to paper. The present invention relates to a paper sheet accumulating apparatus and a transaction processing apparatus with improved leaf accumulating processing performance.

Description of the Related Art Generally, in a transaction processing apparatus that handles a plurality of types of paper sheets, a transport width and an accumulation width in the apparatus are determined based on a maximum width dimension of the paper sheets to be handled.

In the case of forming the deposit / withdrawal port 101 of M, the deposit / withdrawal port 101 is formed with a storage width larger than that of a bill (a 10,000-yen bill) 102 having the maximum width to be deposited and withdrawn.

すく、集積状態が乱れて集積されていた。However, when small-sized banknotes 102 of a denomination other than a 10,000-yen bill are deposited into the large-sized deposit / withdrawal port 101, the small-sized banknotes are deposited and withdrawn. Since the degree of freedom in the mouth 101 is high, the sheet tends to be deviated in the width direction, and the stacking state has been disturbed.

As shown in FIG. 10B, when the banknotes 102 are stored in the cartridge 103, the stacking state is disturbed and the banknotes are stacked in an unstable manner. As described above, there is a problem that the accumulation error at the time of initial receipt of bills when the bills are deposited into the deposit / dispensing port gradually increases in the subsequent stage.

とする。Accordingly, the present invention focuses on stacking a plurality of types of paper sheets having different storage width dimensions toward the center of the storage space when stacking the paper sheets. It is an object of the present invention to provide a paper sheet stacking apparatus and a transaction processing apparatus in which the processing is performed from the receiving stage to promote the alignment and stacking of paper sheets and obtain stable transport and stacking performance.

る。As a result, even if a plurality of types of paper sheets having different storage widths are mixed and stacked in the mixing and stacking section, the sheets are advanced and retracted from both sides in the mixing and stacking section to be variably guided in the width direction. On the other hand, paper sheets having a large storage width are guided together on both sides and are directly stacked. On the other hand, paper sheets having a small storage width are similarly guided on both sides and are accumulated at the center position, so that eccentric accumulation can be eliminated and stable alignment and accumulation can be performed.

Furthermore, when collecting after transportation,
In the stacking section, the stacking state is stable without being disturbed.

ため、紙葉類の収納幅寸法別に区別して一時保留できる
ため、その後の搬送および集積動作も確実に安定する。In this case, it is possible to select a temporary storage section according to the storage width of the paper sheets and temporarily store the paper. For this reason, since the paper sheets can be temporarily stored separately for each storage width dimension, the subsequent conveyance and stacking operations are reliably stabilized.

ド板３１を備えている。By the way, as shown in FIG. 3, in the insides of the above-mentioned banknote depositing / dispensing port 16, the temporary holding section 23 and the return holding section 24, as shown in FIG. It has a stacking space that allows mixed denominations of 1000-yen bills and 10,000-yen bills, and advances and retreats equally from both sides to variably guide the width of the stacking space in the width direction toward the center in the width direction. A variable guide plate 31 is provided.

せ得るように初期規制間隔Ｌ1 で待機している。The above-mentioned variable guide plate 31 is provided along a pair of left and right sides on the inner surface of the stacking space, and a lower end portion, which tilts in the width direction with the upper end pivot portion 32 as a tilting fulcrum, is connected to an advancing / retracting rod 34 of a solenoid 33. The variable guide plates 31 arranged on both sides are driven synchronously, and the amount of advance and retreat at that time is an initial regulation interval L1 slightly shorter than the maximum width dimension L of the bill to be handled, and a bill to be handled. Maximum width dimension L
It is provided in such a manner that it can be switched in two stages with the regulation opening interval L2 which is slightly longer, and usually stands by at the initial regulation interval L1 so that all bills can be brought to the center in the width direction.

力を加えないため問題はない。For this reason, at the time of accepting a bill, FIG.
As shown in (A), the variable guide plate 31 is set at an initial regulation interval L1 shorter than the maximum width dimension L of the bill to be handled, so that when the narrow bill a is received, it is guided toward the center. In other words, when the maximum width banknote b is received, both sides are lightly regulated and forced toward the center to be received. Even if the banknote is slightly bent, there is no problem in this state since no feeding force is applied in this state.

中央位置に円滑に導くことができる。After the completion of the acceptance, the operation shifts to a take-in operation for transporting the accepted bills one by one to the next stage, and as shown in FIG.
At the same time, the received bills are pressed in the stacking direction by operating the internal pressure roller 41 so as to be in a compressed and stackable state in which the bills can be fed out, and then the bills are taken in one by one in the subsequent stage. At the time of taking in the bills, the variable guide plates 31 on both sides are opened, and can be smoothly guided to the center position as it is, and both long and short bills having different width dimensions can be smoothly guided to the center position of the stacking space. .

ため集積状態が乱れずに安定して集積される。Further, when one sheet is taken in and conveyed inward from the deposit / withdrawal port 16, the sheet is fed out of the aligned and stacked state with reference to the center position, so that there is no danger of causing a jam during the conveyance. Also in the case of integration, in the subsequent integration space, the integration operation is performed at the central position, so that the integration state is not disturbed and the integration is stable.
