Definitions

  • the invention relates to a device for handling coins, comprising a transport unit for transporting coins, a drive unit for driving the transport unit and a control unit for controlling the drive unit. Furthermore, the invention relates to a method for driving such a device for handling coins.
  • the coins are entered as a coin amount via an input unit. Subsequently, the coins are first isolated by means of a vertical conveyor and passed past a fastness verification unit, with the help of the authenticity of the respective coins is determined. Subsequently, the coins classified as genuine are distributed via a sorting unit to individual coin shoppers, from which they can be issued again via an output tray.
  • the vertical singler comprises a conveyor belt guided by rollers, wherein at least one of these rollers is driven via a drive unit for driving the conveyor belt.
  • a drive unit for driving the conveyor belt This is in the known devices the conveyor belt is always driven at the same speed, which is relatively low, since the authenticity checking unit must determine the authenticity of the coins when the coins are transported past.
  • the control unit controls the control unit in a first operating mode, the drive unit such that it drives the transport unit at a first speed, and in a second operating mode such that the drive unit drives the transport unit at a different speed from the first speed.
  • control unit in particular for the first and the second operating mode, in each case special control programs are stored which, depending on the activated operating mode, are processed by the control unit.
  • the activation of the individual operating modes can be done manually or automatically depending on the situation.
  • control unit controls the drive unit in a third operating mode such that it drives the transport unit at a third speed different from the first and the second speed.
  • any number of further operating modes can be preset, in which the drive unit drives the transport unit in each case with assigned preset speeds. This ensures that, for a corresponding number of different situations, the transport of the coins takes place in each case with an adapted, preferably respectively optimal, speed.
  • the drive unit comprises a motor, preferably a stepping motor, so that adaptation of the speed can be achieved in a simple manner.
  • the adaptation of the speed can be realized, for example via corresponding gear.
  • the transport unit may preferably comprise at least one transport belt guided by rollers, wherein at least one of these rollers is drivable via the drive unit, so that via the contact between the conveyor belt and the roller and the conveyor belt is driven at the corresponding first, second or third speed.
  • the device comprises an input unit for inputting coins and a sorting unit for sorting the coins onto different coin hoppers and if the transport unit is used to transport the coins from the input unit to the sorting unit.
  • the coins are entered into the input unit, in particular in the form of a coin, which is passed over a coin hopper and then transported by means of the transport unit out of the coin hopper in the direction of a sorting unit.
  • a separation of the coins and then on the other hand a determination of the authenticity and / or denomination of the coins during their transport by means of a authenticity testing unit.
  • the first speed is selected in such a way that the authenticity of the entered coins can be reliably checked with the aid of the authenticity checking unit.
  • the control unit activates the first operating mode during the scheduled deposit of coins and the second operating mode when canceling such a deposit process.
  • the first speed is selected, in particular, such that the authenticity check unit makes it possible to reliably recognize the authenticity and / or denomination of the coins when they are transported past the authenticity check unit.
  • the second speed is set greater than the first speed, so that when the transaction is aborted, a particularly fast payout of the entered coins can take place. This is not critical, because anyway no review of the entered coins must be made.
  • control unit may be the first mode of operation in handling coins activate a first currency and in the second operating mode when handling coins of a second currency.
  • the optimal transport speed may also vary due to the nature of the coins, because, if necessary, a simpler check of the coins and the denomination identifier is possible and / or the coins are handled differently due to the physical characteristics. By setting the different operating modes, the optimum speed can be used, in particular for each currency, so that efficient handling of the coins takes place via the device.
  • control unit can set the operating mode also depending on the level of the device to coins. This has the advantage that an on / off feed is avoided and thus the coins are continuously fed to the input units of the device, so that an optimal performance is achieved.
  • control unit activates the first operating mode at the beginning of a deposit process for depositing coins and the second operating mode a predetermined time before the end of the deposit process.
  • the first speed is again chosen such that it can be used to optimally check the authenticity and / or determine the denomination.
  • a so-called run-on of the transport unit is performed by default to ensure that coins that are still in the other after closing a shutter of the input unit Transport system, also be processed according to the predetermined handling.
  • This follow-up time results in particular from the time that the coin from the hopper of the input unit to the end of the transport unit needed.
  • This delay time can be shortened by a higher speed of the transport unit by the second speed is set greater than the first speed.
  • the total time required for a deposit transaction is reduced without negatively affecting the recognition of each coin.
  • individual operating modes with correspondingly assigned speeds may also be preset for all situations mentioned above or any combination thereof.
  • the first speed is inventively smaller than the second speed, so that, for example, when canceling a transaction or at the end of a transaction transaction, an acceleration occurs.
  • a further aspect of the invention relates to a method for controlling a device for handling coins, in particular for controlling a device according to the type described above.
  • a transport unit for transporting coins is driven by means of a drive unit, wherein the speed with which the transport unit is driven, is varied depending on the situation.
  • the speed can be varied in particular currency-dependent and / or level dependent. Additionally or alternatively, the speed can also be increased at the abort of a transaction or at the end of a transaction. Likewise, an optimally adapted speed can also be selected in any combination of these different situations.
  • the speed is preferably varied continuously, which allows an optimal adaptation to the respective situation.
  • a stepwise setting speed in discrete steps thereby simplifying control.
  • Varying between individual speeds can preferably take place automatically on the basis of the respective situation, for which purpose the particular situation is detected automatically in particular.
  • the speed may be varied even after manually setting the different operating modes.
  • FIG. 1 a schematic representation of a device 10 for handling coins is shown.
  • the device 10 can be embodied as a pure automatic deposit machine, ie, only coins can be paid in, or alternatively can be designed as a recycling machine, ie, paid-in coins can also be paid out again.
  • the device 10 comprises an input unit 12, which has a lockable via a shutter 14 input port 16, can be entered through the coins loose and unsorted as a coin amount.
  • the coins entered as a coin quantity are separated by means of a transport unit 18 and transported past an authenticity checking unit 20, which determines their authenticity and their denomination when the individual coins are transported past.
  • the coins on a sorting unit 22, in particular depending on their denomination, on individual Münzhopper 24 split.
  • a mixed storage can take place.
  • the apparatus 10 has an output tray 26 through which coins can be dispensed again. This can be done, for example, a payout of previously recorded in Münzhoppern 24 coins.
  • all coins entered as a coin amount at a time are also output via the delivery tray 26 when a deposit transaction is aborted, for example because a malfunction occurs in the device 10 or because the deposit process is manually aborted by a corresponding input from an operator via an operating unit 34 ,
  • the automatic canceling occurs, for example, when it comes to a blockage of coins during their handling within the device 10.
  • the device 10 has a card reading unit 28 for reading magnetic strips and / or chip cards and a control unit 30 for controlling the device 10, in particular for controlling the transport of the coins.
  • the transport unit 18 comprises a plurality of mutually parallel conveyor belts 36, of which in FIG. 1 one is visible.
  • the conveyor belts 36 are guided over rollers 38, 40. At least one of these rollers 38, 40 is over a drive unit 32 drivable.
  • this drive unit 32 is a motor, preferably a stepper motor, so that the speed with which the drive unit 32 drives the driven rollers 38, 40 can be correspondingly easily varied. By varying the speed with which the rollers 38, 40 are driven, the speed of the conveyor belts 36 is also varied accordingly.
  • control unit 30 a plurality of different operating modes are preset, each operating mode is used for a predetermined defined situation. Each operating mode is uniquely assigned and stored at a preset speed with which the transport unit 18 is to be driven in the respective operating mode. Depending on the situation, the appropriate operating mode is selected in each case and the control unit 30 controls the drive unit 32 in such a way that it drives the transport unit 18 at the respectively associated speed.
  • a speed adapted to the respective situation preferably the optimum speed
  • the speed is in particular adapted such that the highest possible speed is always used for the respective situation, ie the speed at which the handling of the coins in the respective situation is still possible with sufficient certainty. This ensures that on the one hand, the necessary security is ensured in the handling, on the other hand but not unnecessary time "is given away” and thus the device 10 is optimized.
  • the setting of the different operating modes and thus the setting of the situation-dependent speeds can be done by the control unit 30 in particular automatically by the respective situation is automatically detected.
  • the situations can also be set manually, with the control unit 30 then automatically selecting the operating mode assigned to the manually set situation and the corresponding speed.
  • a speed can be preset with which the transport unit 18 is usually driven if coins are transported past with their assistance at the authenticity checking unit 20 during the scheduled deposit. This speed is set in this case so that a secure detection of the coins and thus a safe classification into genuine and counterfeit suspect coins and a reliable determination of the denomination is possible.
  • the speed of the transport unit 18 is increased in particular, so that all coins entered can be transported as quickly as possible to the output tray 26 and thus can be output again as quickly as possible. Because this transaction does not capture the authenticity of the coins via the authentication unit 20 is more necessary, a speed can be used, which is significantly higher than the speed during the normal operating mode, so that when canceling a deposit operation, the repayment of the coins as quickly as possible and thus the device 10 again quickly for another transaction is available.
  • the speed of the transport unit 18 can also be adjusted currency-dependent.
  • a speed adapted to that currency may be preset.
  • a level-dependent adjustment of the speed of the transport unit 18 can take place, wherein in this case the speed adjustment takes place in particular such that the coins are continuously fed from the input unit 12 to the further units 20, 22, 24, 26. This also improves the performance of the device 10.
  • the speed adjustment can also be such that during the so-called follow-up time, the transport unit 18 is operated at a higher speed compared to the "normal" operating mode.
  • the lag time is the time that the transport unit 18 is still driven even after closing the shutter 14 of the input unit 12 to ensure that as well Coins that reach the transport unit 18 after the shutter has been closed are safely transported further past the authenticity checking unit 20 to the sorting unit 22.
  • this overrun time can be shortened by driving the transport unit 18 at a correspondingly higher speed during it.
  • the speed is increased from the time when the shutter 14 is closed.
  • the variation of the speed can be either continuous or discrete in pre-set steps.
