受は付は率の向上を図ることが必要である。The defective banknote discrimination device has a function of inspecting the banknotes inserted into the automatic teller machine one by one by a customer, and identifying and extracting defective banknotes such as altered banknotes and soiled banknotes. Prior to this discrimination operation, in order to improve the accuracy of discrimination, the banknotes that are skewed by more than a specified amount with respect to the normal travel route in the inspection area are determined to be undistinguishable and are rejected in advance. However, if too many bills are extracted as unidentifiable, that is, if the rate of bills with a bill tray is low, it will make customers distrust the machine, so a sloped bank was installed just before the inspection area. It is necessary to add a line correction mechanism to correct the posture of the banknotes in order to improve the receiving rate.

It is gripped by the feed roller 1 and moved forward by its rotation, and introduced into the skew correction area between it and the second feed roller 2 . Immediately after the first feed roller 1 on the upstream side, there is an actively rotating impeller 4 equipped with flexible rubber blades 3a around the periphery.
is provided, and the tip of the blade 3a is configured to contact the upper surface of the banknote and urge it forward. Therefore,
The paper 'AI A, which has been fed between the rollers 1 and 2 and has left the grip of the first feed roller 1, is pushed toward the second feed roller 2 by the action of the impeller 30. Second feed roller 2
Immediately in front of it, skew correction rollers 4, 4' are provided on both the left and right sides thereof. The skew correction rollers 4, 4' rotate at a slower speed than the feed rollers 1, 2,
Three-dimensionally freely rotatable steel balls 5, 5' are pressed against the upper surface thereof and are applied with a predetermined pressure (for example, about 2 g) by a spring 6.

これらの各ローラの速度の一例を第５図のグラフに示す
。An example of the speed of each of these rollers is shown in the graph of FIG.
この機構の作用について次に説明する。The operation of this mechanism will be explained next.

ので好ましくない。According to such a conventional skew correction mechanism, the spring 6
Since the pressing force applied to the steel ball 5 is always constant,
In the case of bills with a large degree of skew, some are caught by the correction roller 4 before the skew can be corrected and are ejected out of the system in the skewed position. If the force of the spring is increased to prevent this, it is not preferable because the delivery to the correction roller 4 becomes difficult and jamming occurs between the banknotes and the following banknotes.

が可能となる。First in a diagonal position. The banknote introduced into the skew correction area between the second feed rollers is quickly sent forward by the action of the impeller. The direction and degree of skew of the bill are automatically detected by the detection means and sent to the control unit as a skew signal. The banknote area on the side tilted forward contacts the steel ball first, but based on the above-mentioned skew signal, the control unit applies a predetermined voltage to the piezoelectric element attached to the steel ball for the energization time corresponding to the degree of skew. Increase the pressing force by applying That is, when the degree of skew is large, the 118 voltage is applied to the piezoelectric element attached to the other four balls for a longer period of time, and the pressure applied to the steel ball increases during that time. As a result, the bill cannot enter the gripping area between the posture correction roller and the steel ball and is temporarily stopped. During this time, the other side of the banknote that is lagging moves forward, and the skew is largely corrected. When the detection means detects that the posture of the banknote has become normal, the application of voltage to both pressure 7ri elements is simultaneously released to allow the banknote to advance to the gripping area of the second feed roller. According to the present invention, since the amount of correction can be adjusted according to the degree of skew of the bill in this way, more precise posture control is possible.
以下、図面に示す好適実施例によって、本発明を更に詳

も従来の機構と実質的に同じに設計されている。Similar to the conventional skew correction mechanism described above based on FIG. 4, the banknote A is introduced into the correction area between the first feed roller 1 and the second feed roller 2, which is set slightly larger than its length. be done. Impeller 3, skew correction rollers 4, 4', and steel balls 5, 5' urged by spring 6
is also designed substantially the same as the conventional mechanism.

制御する指令信号として出力される。A feature of the present invention is that piezoelectric elements 10 and 10' are provided above the steel balls 5 and 5' via the spring 6, respectively, so as to apply an additional pressing force to the steel balls 5. That is what we are doing. Furthermore, in both the left and right areas of the correction area, there are CCDs for detecting the direction and degree of skew to the banknote.
Two line sensors 11 and 11° are provided. The skew signal from the line sensor 11.11' is input to a control section (not shown), processed, and output as a command signal for controlling the voltage applied to the piezoelectric element 10.10'', as described later.
次にこの機構の作用について説明する。Next, the operation of this mechanism will be explained.

る。The first feed roller 1 is gripped by the first feed roller 1 and is in an oblique posture with the right side leading in the direction of movement in FIG. 1(b). Second
After the banknote A that has been introduced into the skew correction area between the feed rollers 1 and 2 is released from the grip of the first feed roller 1, it is moved by the action of the impeller 3 while maintaining its posture. Proceed even faster. The right side of the leading edge first reaches the corresponding line sensor 11, and then the left side reaches the other line sensor 11', but depending on the difference in the output bits of both line sensors at that time, the direction of skew to the banknote is determined. (Which one is leading, left or right) and the degree of skew are determined, and the data is input to a control section (not shown).

御部が計算し、斜行の程度が大きい場合にはより長い時
間が設定されるようになっている。Based on this data, the control section applies a predetermined voltage to the piezoelectric element 10 corresponding to the leading right side. Therefore, the steel ball 5 corresponding to the piezoelectric element IO receives additional pressure from the piezoelectric element 10 in addition to the biasing force of the spring 6, and is strongly pressed against the skew correction roller 4. Therefore steel ball 5
The gripping force between the correcting roller 4 and the correcting roller 4 is strengthened, making it difficult for banknotes to enter. This voltage application time is calculated by the control section from the data, and is set to be longer if the degree of skew is large.

る。In this way, by creating a difference in the pressure applied to the left and right steel balls 5, 5', the time required for the leading banknote portion to be captured by the skew correcting roller 4 is actively delayed. Then, the banknote portion on the other side is quickly fed by the impeller 3, and the skew is corrected. When the line sensor 11.11' confirms that both sides of the banknote A are aligned,
The application of voltage to the piezoelectric element 10 is released, and both net spheres 5
゜5° comes into contact with the correcting rollers 4, 4° with the same relatively weak pressing force on both sides by the spring 6 only, and the banknote A smoothly enters the action area of the correcting rollers in the correct posture, and then moves to the second feed. It is gripped by roller 2 and discharged out of the system.

It is also possible to control the posture by changing the voltage itself.

By changing the application time and braking the advance of the leading banknote portion within that time, the lagging banknote portion is made to move forward quickly, so that correction of skew can be carried out quickly and smoothly. The rate at which automatic banknote teller machines accept banknotes is greatly improved.
