Description

本発明は、遊技台用台間機、自動販売機、両替機などに組み込まれている紙幣識別機に関し、特に、紙幣挿入口から挿入されて紙幣搬送路内に留まっている紙幣が不正に抜き取られることを防止するための紙幣引き抜き防止機構に関するものである。   The present invention relates to a banknote discriminator incorporated in a table machine for a gaming table, a vending machine, a money changer, and the like, and in particular, a banknote inserted in a banknote insertion slot and staying in a banknote transport path is illegally extracted. The present invention relates to a bill withdrawal prevention mechanism for preventing the bill from being defeated.

パチンコ店などの遊技店においては、多数台の遊技台が台間機を挟み配列され、遊技者が遊技台から離れることなく、隣接する台間機から遊技媒体の貸し出しを受けることができるようになっている。台間機としては、紙幣により遊技媒体の貸し出しを行うことができるように、紙幣識別機を備えたものが知られている。   In game stores such as pachinko parlors, a large number of game machines are arranged with a machine between them so that players can rent game media from adjacent machine without leaving the game machine. It has become. As a pedestrian machine, what is equipped with the banknote identification machine is known so that a game medium can be lent out with a banknote.

紙幣識別機は、一般に、紙幣挿入口から挿入された紙幣を搬送する紙幣搬送機構と、挿入された紙幣の真偽、種類などを判別するための判別機構と、真札であると判断された紙幣を収納するストッカとを備えている。紙幣挿入口から挿入された紙幣は、紙幣搬送機構によって搬送され、所定の紙幣搬送路上において一時的に留まり、真偽の判別を経た後に、ストッカに収納される。   The bill discriminator is generally determined to be a bill, a bill transport mechanism that transports a bill inserted from a bill insertion slot, a discrimination mechanism for discriminating the authenticity, type, etc. of the inserted bill. And a stocker for storing banknotes. The banknote inserted from the banknote insertion slot is transported by the banknote transport mechanism, temporarily stays on a predetermined banknote transport path, and is stored in the stocker after authenticity determination.

このような紙幣識別機では、挿入されて真偽の判別を経た後に紙幣搬送路に一時的に留まっている紙幣が、不正行為により、紙幣挿入口を介して引き抜かれるおそれがある。そこで、従来においては、紙幣搬送路にシャッタ手段を配置して、挿入された紙幣が不正に引き抜かれないようにしている。シャッタ手段を備えた紙幣引き抜き防止機構は、例えば、下記の特許文献１に開示されている。   In such a banknote discriminator, a banknote that has been inserted and has passed through a true / false discrimination and temporarily stays in the banknote transport path may be pulled out via a banknote insertion slot due to fraud. Therefore, conventionally, shutter means is arranged in the banknote conveyance path so that the inserted banknote is not withdrawn illegally. A bill withdrawal prevention mechanism including a shutter unit is disclosed in, for example, Patent Document 1 below.

ここに開示されているシャッタ手段は、紙幣搬送路に形成されているスリットを、上下方向(紙幣搬送路に直交する方向)にスライド自在なプレートと、このプレートをスライドさせるためのラック・ピニオン機構とを備えている。挿入された紙幣がシャッタ手段の下流側に通過すると、ラック・ピニオン機構によってプレートがスリットを貫通して移動して、紙幣搬送路を封鎖する。この結果、紙幣を引き出すことが不可能になる。
特開平０７−１２９８１６号公報 The shutter means disclosed herein includes a plate slidable in a vertical direction (a direction perpendicular to the banknote transport path) with a slit formed in the banknote transport path, and a rack and pinion mechanism for sliding the plate. And. When the inserted bill passes to the downstream side of the shutter means, the rack and pinion mechanism moves the plate through the slit and seals the bill conveyance path. As a result, it becomes impossible to draw out banknotes.
Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 07-129816

ここで、一般的な自動販売機や両替機などに紙幣識別機を組み込む場合には、その設置スペースを十分に確保できることが多い。しかし、遊技店などにおける遊技台の間あるいは隣接位置に設置される台間機において、多数台の遊技台を設置できるようにするために台間機の設置スペースが極めて制限される。よって、小さな設置スペースに設置される台間機に組み込まれる紙幣識別機の設置スペースも自ずと小さくなる。   Here, when a bill validator is incorporated in a general vending machine or a money changer, a sufficient installation space can often be secured. However, in a machine between machines or at adjacent positions in a game store or the like, the installation space for the machine is extremely limited so that a large number of game machines can be installed. Therefore, the installation space of the banknote discriminator incorporated in the inter-bed machine installed in a small installation space is naturally reduced.

このような限れられた設置スペースに設置される紙幣識別機は可能な限り小型化を図ることが望ましい。このためには、各構成部分の小型化、コンパクト化を図る必要がある。ここで、従来における紙幣引き抜き防止機構は、紙幣搬送路に直交する方向に移動するプレートを備えているので、プレートの移動範囲を包含する設置スペースが必要である。また、プレートを移動させるための機構もラック、ピニオンなどの複数の部品が必要である。よって、従来の紙幣引き抜き防止機構は所定の設置スペースが必要であり、台間機に組み込む紙幣識別機に搭載するためには、更なる小型化、コンパクト化を図ることが望ましい。   It is desirable to make the bill discriminator installed in such a limited installation space as small as possible. For this purpose, it is necessary to make each component small and compact. Here, since the conventional banknote withdrawal preventing mechanism includes a plate that moves in a direction orthogonal to the banknote conveyance path, an installation space that includes the movement range of the plate is required. Further, the mechanism for moving the plate also requires a plurality of parts such as a rack and a pinion. Therefore, the conventional bill withdrawal prevention mechanism requires a predetermined installation space, and it is desirable to further reduce the size and size in order to be mounted on the bill discriminator incorporated in the inter-bed machine.

本発明の課題は、このような点に鑑みて、小型化およびコンパクト化を図るのに適した紙幣識別機の紙幣引き抜き防止機構を提案することにある。   In view of these points, an object of the present invention is to propose a bill withdrawal prevention mechanism for a bill validator that is suitable for downsizing and downsizing.

また、本発明の課題は、小型でコンパクトな紙幣引き抜き防止機構を備えた小型でコンパクトな紙幣識別機を提案することにある。   Another object of the present invention is to propose a small and compact bill validator equipped with a small and compact bill withdrawal prevention mechanism.

上記の課題を解決するために、本発明は、紙幣識別機の紙幣搬送路から紙幣が引き抜かれることを防止するための紙幣引き抜き防止機構において：前記紙幣搬送路の幅方向に延びる揺動中心線を中心として、前記紙幣搬送路からの紙幣の引き抜きを防止可能な突出位置、および当該紙幣搬送路から退避した退避位置の間を揺動可能な揺動部材と；前記紙幣搬送路の幅方向に往復移動可能な直線移動部材と；前記揺動部材および前記直線移動部材の一方の部材に形成された突起と；前記揺動部材および前記直線移動部材の他方の部材に形成され、前記紙幣搬送路の幅方向に傾斜している傾斜面部分を備えた摺動面と；前記突起および前記摺動面の当接状態を保持している付勢部材とを有し；前記直線移動部材が移動すると、前記突起が前記摺動面の前記傾斜面部分に沿って摺動して、前記揺動部材が、前記退避位置から前記突出位置、あるいは、前記突出位置から前記退避位置に揺動することを特徴としている。   In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a bill withdrawal prevention mechanism for preventing a bill from being pulled out of a bill transport path of a bill discriminator: an oscillation center line extending in the width direction of the bill transport path And a swinging member capable of swinging between a protruding position capable of preventing withdrawal of the banknote from the banknote transport path and a retracted position retracted from the banknote transport path; in the width direction of the banknote transport path A linearly movable member capable of reciprocating; a projection formed on one of the swinging member and the linearly moving member; and a banknote conveying path formed on the other member of the swinging member and the linearly moving member. A sliding surface having an inclined surface portion that is inclined in the width direction; and an urging member that holds a contact state between the protrusion and the sliding surface; and when the linearly moving member moves , The protrusion is the sliding Slides along the inclined surface portion of said swinging member, said projecting position from the retracted position, or is characterized by swings in the retracted position from the projecting position.

ここで、前記揺動部材を、前記紙幣搬送路の幅方向に平行に配置された揺動板と、この揺動板の後端部分の幅方向の両側に形成した揺動軸と、前記揺動板の前記紙幣搬送路に対峙している表面における先端部分に形成した引き抜き防止用の爪と、前記揺動板の前記表面に形成した前記摺動面とを備えた構成とすることができる。また、前記直線移動部材を、前記紙幣搬送路と前記揺動板の間において、前記紙幣搬送路の幅方向に平行に配置された細長い直線移動板と、この直線移動板の前記揺動板側の表面における前記摺動面に対峙している部位に形成した前記突起とを備えた構成とすることができる。さらに、前記付勢部材を、前記揺動部材を前記紙幣搬送路の側に向けて付勢しているばね部材とすることができる。この場合には、前記直線移動板が第１位置から第２位置に移動すると、前記突起が前記摺動面の傾斜面部分に乗り上げて前記揺動板が前記退避位置まで揺動して、前記爪が前記紙幣搬送路から退避し、前記直線移動板が前記第２位置から前記第１位置に移動すると、前記突起が前記傾斜面部分に沿って前記摺動面から下りて前記揺動板が前記突出位置まで揺動作して、前記爪が前記紙幣搬送路内に突出するようにすればよい。   Here, the swing member includes a swing plate disposed in parallel with the width direction of the bill conveyance path, a swing shaft formed on both sides of the rear end portion of the swing plate in the width direction, and the swing member. A pull-out preventing claw formed on the tip portion of the surface of the moving plate facing the bill conveyance path and the sliding surface formed on the surface of the swing plate can be provided. . In addition, the linear moving member includes an elongated linear moving plate disposed in parallel with the width direction of the banknote transport path between the banknote transport path and the swing plate, and a surface on the swing plate side of the linear transport plate. And the protrusion formed on the part facing the sliding surface. Furthermore, the urging member can be a spring member that urges the swinging member toward the bill conveyance path. In this case, when the linear moving plate moves from the first position to the second position, the protrusion rides on the inclined surface portion of the sliding surface, and the swinging plate swings to the retracted position. When the claw is retracted from the bill conveyance path and the linear movement plate is moved from the second position to the first position, the protrusion descends from the sliding surface along the inclined surface portion, and the swing plate The claw may be swung to the protruding position so that the claw protrudes into the bill conveyance path.

次に、本発明は紙幣識別機に関するものであり、上記構成の紙幣引き抜き防止機構を有していることを特徴としている。   Next, the present invention relates to a bill validator, and is characterized by having a bill withdrawal prevention mechanism having the above-described configuration.

本発明の紙幣識別機の紙幣引き抜き防止機構では、揺動部材を用いて紙幣の引き抜きを防止している。揺動部材の設置スペースおよびその揺動のためのスペースは、プレートを紙幣搬送路に直交する方向に移動させる場合に比べて小さくて済む。また、揺動部材および直線移動部材を紙幣搬送路の幅方向に向けて当該紙幣搬送路と平行に配置することにより、紙幣搬送路の直交方向におけるこれらの部材の設置スペースが少なくて済む。さらに、双方の部材の一方に形成した突起と、他方の部材に形成した傾斜面部分を備えた摺動面との機械的係合によって、揺動部材を揺動させているので、ラック、ピニオン等の部品を備えている場合に比べて機構が簡単になり、設置スペースも少なくて済む。よって、本発明によれば、従来に比べて設置スペースが少なくて済む小型でコンパクトな紙幣引き抜き防止機構を実現できる。   In the bill withdrawal prevention mechanism of the bill validator of the present invention, the withdrawal of bills is prevented using a swing member. The installation space for the swing member and the space for the swing may be smaller than when the plate is moved in a direction orthogonal to the bill conveyance path. Further, by arranging the swinging member and the linear movement member in the width direction of the banknote transport path in parallel with the banknote transport path, the installation space for these members in the orthogonal direction of the banknote transport path can be reduced. Further, since the swinging member is swung by mechanical engagement between the protrusion formed on one of both members and the sliding surface having the inclined surface portion formed on the other member, the rack and pinion Compared with the case where parts such as the above are provided, the mechanism becomes simple and the installation space is small. Therefore, according to the present invention, it is possible to realize a compact and compact bill withdrawal prevention mechanism that requires less installation space than conventional ones.

したがって、本発明による紙幣引き抜き防止機構を備えた紙幣識別機は、紙幣引き抜き防止機構の設置スペースが少なくて済むので、全体として小型化、コンパクト化を達成することができる。このため、特に設置スペースが限られている遊技台用の台間機などに搭載するのに適している。   Therefore, the bill validator equipped with the bill withdrawal prevention mechanism according to the present invention requires less installation space for the bill withdrawal prevention mechanism, and thus can be reduced in size and size as a whole. For this reason, it is particularly suitable for mounting on a game machine for game machines where installation space is limited.

以下に、図面を参照して、本発明を適用した紙幣識別機の一例を説明する。   Hereinafter, an example of a bill validator to which the present invention is applied will be described with reference to the drawings.

図１は本例の紙幣識別機の紙幣引き抜き防止機構が組み込まれている部分を示す部分裏面図であり、図２はそのII−II線で切断した部分を示す説明図である。紙幣識別機１の基本構成は、従来のものと同様であり、紙幣挿入口２と、挿入された紙幣Ｐを搬送するための紙幣搬送路３と、紙幣搬送路３上において紙幣Ｐの真偽および金種などを判別するための判別機構(図示せず)と、真札であると判別された紙幣Ｐを収納するためのストッカ(図示せず)を有している。紙幣搬送路３には、当該紙幣搬送路上にある紙幣Ｐが紙幣挿入口２から引き抜かれることを防止するための紙幣引き抜き防止機構１１が付設されている。   FIG. 1 is a partial back view showing a portion in which a bill withdrawal prevention mechanism of the bill validator of this example is incorporated, and FIG. 2 is an explanatory view showing a portion cut along the line II-II. The basic configuration of the bill validator 1 is the same as the conventional one, and the bill insertion slot 2, the bill transport path 3 for transporting the inserted bill P, and the authenticity of the bill P on the bill transport path 3. And a discriminating mechanism (not shown) for discriminating the denomination and the like, and a stocker (not shown) for storing the bills P determined to be true bills. The banknote transport path 3 is provided with a banknote withdrawal preventing mechanism 11 for preventing the banknote P on the banknote transport path from being pulled out from the banknote insertion slot 2.

紙幣搬送路３は、一定の間隔で対向配置した上側ガイド板４および下側ガイド板５の間に形成されており、それらの端部に上下に広がった紙幣挿入口２が形成されている。下側ガイド板５が取り付けられているシャーシ６における紙幣搬送方向Ａに離れた位置には、左右一対の駆動プーリ７ａおよび左右一対の従動プーリ７ｂが配置され、これらの間にはそれぞれ搬送ベルト７ｃが架け渡されている。駆動プーリ７ａは搬送モータ８によって駆動される。搬送ベルト７ｃの表面は下側ガイド板５から紙幣搬送路３に露出しており、当該搬送ベルト７ｃには、上側ガイド板４の側に配置された複数のガイドローラ９が連れ回り可能な状態で当接している。紙幣挿入口２から紙幣Ｐを所定量だけ差し込むと、内蔵のセンサ(図示せず)によって紙幣Ｐが検知されて、搬送モータ８によって下側の左右一対の搬送ベルト７ｃが駆動を開始し、これらの搬送ベルト７ｃと、これらに接している上側のガイドローラ９との間に挟まれた状態で、紙幣Ｐが紙幣搬送路３に沿って内部に送り込まれる。   The banknote transport path 3 is formed between an upper guide plate 4 and a lower guide plate 5 that are arranged to face each other at a constant interval, and a banknote insertion slot 2 that spreads up and down is formed at their end portions. A pair of left and right drive pulleys 7a and a pair of left and right driven pulleys 7b are arranged at positions away from the bill conveyance direction A in the chassis 6 to which the lower guide plate 5 is attached. Is overlaid. The driving pulley 7 a is driven by the transport motor 8. The surface of the conveyor belt 7c is exposed from the lower guide plate 5 to the banknote conveyance path 3, and a plurality of guide rollers 9 arranged on the upper guide plate 4 side can be rotated around the conveyor belt 7c. In contact. When a predetermined amount of the bill P is inserted from the bill insertion slot 2, the bill P is detected by a built-in sensor (not shown), and the pair of left and right transport belts 7c are driven by the transport motor 8, The banknote P is fed into the inside along the banknote transport path 3 while being sandwiched between the transport belt 7c and the upper guide roller 9 in contact therewith.

図３(ａ)は紙幣引き抜き防止機構１１を示す裏面図であり、図３(ｂ)および(ｃ)はその動作を示すための側面図である。これらの図も参照して説明すると、本例の紙幣引き抜き防止機構１１は、紙幣搬送路３における従動プーリ７ｂが配置されている下側ガイド板５の裏面側に配置されており、紙幣搬送路３の幅方向に向けて紙幣搬送路３と平行に延びる揺動中心線１２を中心として、紙幣搬送路３からの紙幣Ｐの引き抜きを防止可能な突出位置１３Ａ、および当該紙幣搬送路３から退避した退避位置１３Ｂの間を揺動可能な揺動部材１３を備えている。また、紙幣搬送路３の幅方向に沿って当該紙幣搬送路３に平行な方向に往復直線運動が可能な状態に保持されている直線移動部材１４と、この直線移動部材１４を直線往復移動させるためのソレノイド１５とを備えている。   FIG. 3A is a back view showing the banknote withdrawal preventing mechanism 11, and FIGS. 3B and 3C are side views for showing the operation thereof. Referring to these figures as well, the banknote withdrawal preventing mechanism 11 of this example is disposed on the back side of the lower guide plate 5 where the driven pulley 7b in the banknote transport path 3 is disposed, and the banknote transport path 3, with a swing center line 12 extending parallel to the banknote transport path 3 in the width direction 3 as a center, a protruding position 13 </ b> A capable of preventing withdrawal of the banknote P from the banknote transport path 3, and retreating from the banknote transport path 3 The swing member 13 is swingable between the retracted positions 13B. Moreover, the linear movement member 14 currently hold | maintained in the state in which a reciprocating linear motion is possible in the direction parallel to the said banknote conveyance path 3 along the width direction of the banknote conveyance path 3, and this linear movement member 14 are linearly reciprocated. And a solenoid 15 for this purpose.

揺動部材１３および直線移動部材１４の一方の部材には、紙幣搬送路３にほぼ直交する方向に延びる紙幣引き抜き防止用の突起１６が形成されている。本例では、直線移動部材１４の側に一対の突起１６が形成されている。また、揺動部材１３および直線移動部材１４の他方の部材には、紙幣搬送路３の幅方向に傾斜している傾斜面部分１７ａを備えた摺動面１７が形成されている。本例では、揺動部材１３の側に一対の摺動面１７が形成されている。さらに、突起１６および摺動面１７の当接状態を保持するための付勢部材として、捩じりばね１８を備えている。   One member of the swing member 13 and the linear movement member 14 is formed with a bill withdrawal preventing projection 16 extending in a direction substantially orthogonal to the bill transport path 3. In this example, a pair of protrusions 16 are formed on the linear moving member 14 side. A sliding surface 17 having an inclined surface portion 17 a that is inclined in the width direction of the bill conveyance path 3 is formed on the other member of the swing member 13 and the linearly moving member 14. In this example, a pair of sliding surfaces 17 are formed on the swing member 13 side. Furthermore, a torsion spring 18 is provided as an urging member for maintaining the contact state between the protrusion 16 and the sliding surface 17.

各部の構造を詳細に説明する。まず、揺動部材１３は、紙幣搬送路３の幅方向に沿って当該紙幣搬送路に平行となるように配置された揺動板２１を備えている。揺動板２１の後端部の左右の側面には、揺動中心線１２を中心とする揺動軸２２が一体形成されており、これらの揺動軸２２がシャーシ６４によって回転自在の状態で支持されている。また、一方の揺動軸２２には捩じりばね１８が取り付けられており、揺動板２１を常に、紙幣搬送路３の方向、すなわち、下側ガイド板４に向かう方向に所定のばね力によって付勢している。   The structure of each part will be described in detail. First, the swing member 13 includes a swing plate 21 that is disposed along the width direction of the banknote transport path 3 so as to be parallel to the banknote transport path. On the left and right side surfaces of the rear end portion of the swing plate 21, a swing shaft 22 centering on the swing center line 12 is integrally formed, and these swing shafts 22 can be rotated by a chassis 64. It is supported. A torsion spring 18 is attached to one of the swing shafts 22 so that the swing plate 21 always has a predetermined spring force in the direction of the bill transport path 3, that is, in the direction toward the lower guide plate 4. Is energized by.

この揺動板２１の紙幣搬送路３に対峙している側の表面２１ａにおける先端部分には、幅方向に沿って所定の間隔で引き抜き防止用の爪２３が一体形成されている。また、当該表面２１ａにおける後端に近い部分には、左右一対の摺動面１７が一体形成されている。摺動面１７は、表面２１ａから幅方向に向けて徐々に***している傾斜面部分１７ａと、この傾斜面部分１７ａに連続した頂面部分１７ｂとを備えた台形状のものである。   A pull-out preventing claw 23 is integrally formed at a front end portion of the surface 21a of the swing plate 21 facing the bill conveyance path 3 at a predetermined interval along the width direction. Further, a pair of left and right sliding surfaces 17 are integrally formed in a portion near the rear end of the surface 21a. The sliding surface 17 has a trapezoidal shape including an inclined surface portion 17a that gradually rises in the width direction from the surface 21a, and a top surface portion 17b that is continuous with the inclined surface portion 17a.

次に、直線移動部材１４は、紙幣搬送路３の下側ガイド板５と揺動板２１の間において、紙幣搬送路３の幅方向に沿って当該紙幣搬送路と平行に配置された細長い直線移動板３１を備えている。この直線移動板３１の揺動板２１に対峙している表面３１ａには、揺動板側の各摺動面１７に対峙している部位に突起１６が一体形成されている。突起１６は直線移動板３１の表面３１から垂直に突出した円柱状突起であり、その先端面は半球面とされ、揺動板側の摺動面１７上を幅方向に向けて滑らかに摺動可能となっている。さらに、直線移動板３１の一端は直角に折れ曲がった取付部３２とされており、ここに、ソレノイド１５のプランジャ１５ａの先端部が連結されている。   Next, the linear moving member 14 is an elongated straight line disposed in parallel with the banknote transport path along the width direction of the banknote transport path 3 between the lower guide plate 5 and the swing plate 21 of the banknote transport path 3. A moving plate 31 is provided. On the surface 31a of the linear moving plate 31 facing the swing plate 21, protrusions 16 are integrally formed at portions facing the respective sliding surfaces 17 on the swing plate side. The protrusion 16 is a cylindrical protrusion that protrudes perpendicularly from the surface 31 of the linearly moving plate 31, and its tip surface is a hemispherical surface, and smoothly slides on the sliding surface 17 on the swing plate side in the width direction. It is possible. Further, one end of the linear moving plate 31 is a mounting portion 32 bent at a right angle, and the tip end portion of the plunger 15a of the solenoid 15 is connected thereto.

この構成の紙幣識別機１の紙幣引き抜き防止機構１１の動作を説明する。初期状態においては、図２の想像線、および図３(ｂ)に示すように、直線移動部材１４の突起１６は、揺動部材１３の摺動面１７から外れた揺動板表面３１ａに当っている。この状態は捩じりばね１８のばね力によって保持され、揺動部材１３の紙幣引き抜き防止用の爪２３が下側ガイド板５に形成されているスリット５ａ(図１参照)を通って紙幣搬送路３内に突出して、紙幣の引き抜きができない突出位置１３Ａとなっている。   Operation | movement of the banknote extraction prevention mechanism 11 of the banknote identification machine 1 of this structure is demonstrated. In the initial state, as shown in the imaginary line of FIG. 2 and FIG. 3 (b), the protrusion 16 of the linearly moving member 14 abuts on the swing plate surface 31 a that is disengaged from the sliding surface 17 of the swing member 13. ing. This state is held by the spring force of the torsion spring 18, and the bill 23 is prevented from being pulled out through the slit 5a (see FIG. 1) formed in the lower guide plate 5 for preventing the bill 13 from being pulled out. Projecting into the path 3 is a protruding position 13A where the banknote cannot be pulled out.

紙幣挿入口２から紙幣Ｐが挿入されたことが検出されると、ソレノイド５が励磁され、そのプランジャ１５ａが吸引されて、直線移動部材１４が紙幣搬送路３の幅方向に引かれるので(直線移動部材１４が第１位置から第２位置に移動するので)、そこに形成されている突起１６は、揺動部材１３の側の摺動面１７の傾斜面部分１７ａに沿って摺動してその頂面１７ｂに乗り上げる。この結果、揺動部材１３はばね力に逆らって紙幣搬送路３から遠ざかった退避位置１３Ｂに揺動して、その紙幣引き抜き防止用の爪２３が紙幣搬送路３から退避する。よって、紙幣挿入口２から挿入された紙幣Ｐを紙幣搬送路３に沿って搬送することが可能になる。図２の実線および図３(ｃ)はこの状態を示してある。   When it is detected that the bill P is inserted from the bill insertion slot 2, the solenoid 5 is excited, the plunger 15a is sucked, and the linear movement member 14 is pulled in the width direction of the bill transport path 3 (straight line). Since the moving member 14 moves from the first position to the second position), the protrusion 16 formed there slides along the inclined surface portion 17a of the sliding surface 17 on the swing member 13 side. It rides on the top surface 17b. As a result, the swinging member 13 swings against the spring force to the retracted position 13 </ b> B away from the banknote transport path 3, and the banknote withdrawal preventing claw 23 retracts from the banknote transport path 3. Therefore, the banknote P inserted from the banknote insertion slot 2 can be transported along the banknote transport path 3. The solid line in FIG. 2 and FIG. 3C show this state.

紙幣挿入口２から挿入された紙幣Ｐは、紙幣搬送路３に沿って内部に送り込まれ、内蔵の判別機構(図示せず)によってその真偽などが判別される。図２においては、この状態における紙幣Ｐの紙幣搬送路上の位置を示してある。紙幣Ｐの後端縁Ｐａは紙幣引き抜き防止用の爪２３よりも搬送方向Ａの下流側(内部)に位置している。   The banknote P inserted from the banknote insertion slot 2 is sent into the interior along the banknote transport path 3, and its authenticity is discriminated by a built-in discrimination mechanism (not shown). In FIG. 2, the position on the banknote conveyance path of the banknote P in this state is shown. The rear edge Pa of the banknote P is located on the downstream side (inside) in the transport direction A from the nail 23 for preventing banknote withdrawal.

紙幣Ｐの後端縁Ｐａが爪２３よりも下流側に到ると、紙幣引き抜き防止機構１１のソレノイド１５が消磁されて、そのプランジャ１５ａが突出位置に復帰する。この結果、直線移動部材１４が紙幣搬送路３の幅方向に押し出されるので(直線移動部材１４が第２位置から第１位置に移動するので)、そこに形成されている突起１６は、揺動部材１３の側の摺動面１７における頂面１７ｂから傾斜面部分１７ａに沿って摺動して、揺動板表面３１ａに到る。揺動部材１３は捩じりばね１８によって直線移動部材１４の側に付勢されているので、これに伴って、直線移動部材１４の側に揺動して、図２の想像線および図３(ｂ)に示す突出位置１３Ａに到る。この結果、揺動部材１３の紙幣引き抜き防止用の爪２３が下側ガイド板５に形成されているスリット５ａ(図１参照)を通って紙幣搬送路３内に突出して、紙幣の引き抜きができない状態が形成される。この後に、紙幣Ｐの真偽の判別動作が終了して、紙幣Ｐが不図示のストッカに収納される。   When the trailing edge Pa of the banknote P reaches the downstream side of the claw 23, the solenoid 15 of the banknote withdrawal preventing mechanism 11 is demagnetized and the plunger 15a returns to the protruding position. As a result, since the linear movement member 14 is pushed out in the width direction of the bill conveyance path 3 (since the linear movement member 14 moves from the second position to the first position), the protrusion 16 formed there swings. The sliding surface 17 on the side of the member 13 slides from the top surface 17b along the inclined surface portion 17a to reach the swing plate surface 31a. Since the oscillating member 13 is urged toward the linearly moving member 14 by the torsion spring 18, the oscillating member 13 oscillates toward the linearly moving member 14, and the imaginary line in FIG. 2 and FIG. The projection position 13A shown in FIG. As a result, the banknote withdrawal preventing claw 23 of the swing member 13 protrudes into the banknote transport path 3 through the slit 5a (see FIG. 1) formed in the lower guide plate 5, and the banknote cannot be pulled out. A state is formed. Thereafter, the authenticity determination operation for the bill P is completed, and the bill P is stored in a stocker (not shown).

このように、本例の紙幣識別機１の紙幣引き抜き防止機構１１は、揺動部材１３、直線移動部材１４、ソレノイド１５および捩じりばね１６から構成でき、これらの部品の移動範囲も極めて少なくて済む。また、揺動部材１３、直線移動部材１４は紙幣搬送路３の裏面側においてそれに平行に幅方向に配置されているので、それらの設置スペース、特に紙幣搬送路に直交する方向の設置スペースが少なくて済む。よって、従来の紙幣引き抜き機構に比べて、設置スペースが少なくて済む小型でコンパクトな紙幣引き抜き機構を実現できる。   Thus, the bill withdrawal prevention mechanism 11 of the bill validator 1 of this example can be constituted by the swing member 13, the linear movement member 14, the solenoid 15 and the torsion spring 16, and the movement range of these components is extremely small. I'll do it. Moreover, since the rocking member 13 and the linear moving member 14 are arranged in the width direction in parallel with the back side of the banknote transport path 3, their installation space, in particular, the installation space in the direction orthogonal to the banknote transport path is small. I'll do it. Therefore, it is possible to realize a compact and compact bill withdrawal mechanism that requires less installation space compared to the conventional bill withdrawal mechanism.
