Abstract

A rotary paper money conveying device applied to a note in and out port ( 1 ) of an automatic teller machine. The rotary paper money conveying device comprises: a paper money clamping mechanism ( 10 ), used for clamping and conveying paper money ( 200 ) from the note in and out port ( 1 ) to a paper money transportation channel entrance inside the automatic teller machine; a transmission mechanism, comprising a drive motor ( 30 ), a belt ( 32 ) and a pair of belt pulleys ( 31, 33 ), wherein the belt ( 32 ) is fixed to the paper money clamping mechanism ( 10 ) through a shaft and a bearing and used for conveying the paper money clamping mechanism ( 10 ) to the paper money transportation channel entrance from the note in and out port ( 1 ); a first rotary driving mechanism, comprising a first rotary motor ( 20 ) and a first transmission gear ( 22 ) and used for driving the paper money clamping mechanism ( 10 ) to rotate by a first angle at the note in and out port ( 1 ); a second rotary driving mechanism, comprising a second rotary motor ( 40 ) and a second transmission gear ( 42 ) and used for driving the paper money clamping mechanism ( 10 ) to rotate by a second angle at the paper money transportation channel entrance; and a central control mechanism.

First claim

The invention claimed is:

1. A rotary banknote conveying device, applicable to a banknote inlet/outlet of an automatic teller machine, the rotary banknote conveying device comprising:
a banknote clamping mechanism configured to convey banknotes from the banknote inlet/outlet to an inlet of a banknote conveying passage inside the automatic teller machine;
a transmission mechanism comprising a drive motor, a belt and a pair of pulleys, the belt being fixed to the banknote clamping mechanism by a shaft and a bearing and configured to convey the banknote clamping mechanism from the banknote inlet/outlet to the inlet of the banknote conveying passage;
a first rotary driving mechanism comprising a first rotary motor and a first transmission gear and configured to drive the banknote clamping mechanism to rotate by a first angle at the banknote inlet/outlet;
a second rotary driving mechanism comprising a second rotary motor and a second transmission gear and configured to drive the banknote clamping mechanism to rotate by a second angle at the inlet of the banknote conveying passage; and
a central control mechanism comprising a control unit, a first position sensor configured to assist in controlling the first rotary driving mechanism to drive the banknote clamping mechanism to rotate by the first angle, and a second position sensor configured to assist in controlling the second rotary driving mechanism to drive the banknote clamping mechanism to rotate by the second angle.

2. The rotary banknote conveying device according to claim 1 , wherein the banknote clamping mechanism is provided with a transmission gear, and the transmission gear is configured to engage with the first transmission gear or the second transmission gear, to drive the banknote clamping mechanism to rotate by the first angle or the second angle.

3. The rotary banknote conveying device according to claim 2 , wherein the banknote clamping mechanism further comprises an opening end and a rear end opposite to the opening end, the rear end is provided with a spring and a electromagnetic sequentially, the electromagnetic is configured to control the banknote clamping mechanism to close in a state that the electromagnetic is energized, and the spring is configured to control the banknote clamping mechanism to open in a state that the electromagnetic is de-energized.

4. The rotary banknote conveying device according to claim 3 , wherein the inlet of the banknote conveying passage comprises a fixed pressing plate, a movable pressing plate and a pair of banknote separating wheels, the fixed pressing plate and the movable pressing plate define a banknote stacking space, and the pair of banknote separating wheels are driven by a step motor to separate the banknotes in the banknote stacking space individually and deliver the banknotes into the banknote conveying passage.

5. The rotary banknote conveying device according to claim 2 , wherein the inlet of the banknote conveying passage comprises a fixed pressing plate, a movable pressing plate and a pair of banknote separating wheels, the fixed pressing plate and the movable pressing plate define a banknote stacking space, and the pair of banknote separating wheels are driven by a step motor to separate the banknotes in the banknote stacking space individually and deliver the banknotes into the banknote conveying passage.

6. The rotary banknote conveying device according to claim 1 , wherein the inlet of the banknote conveying passage comprises a fixed pressing plate, a movable pressing plate and a pair of banknote separating wheels, the fixed pressing plate and the movable pressing plate define a banknote stacking space, and the pair of banknote separating wheels are driven by a step motor to separate the banknotes in the banknote stacking space individually and deliver the banknotes into the banknote conveying passage.
