The coin cassette 11 and the mounting unit 12 in the coin storage unit 5 of the deposit machine 1 described above will now be described. Fig. 3 is a perspective view showing the coin cassette 11 mounted in the mounting unit 12 in the embodiment. Fig. 4 is a perspective view showing the coin cassette 11 pulled out of the mounting unit 12 in the embodiment. Fig. 5 is a side view showing the mounting unit 12 in the embodiment.

As shown in Figures 3 and 4, the coin cassette 11 is attached to and detached from the mounting unit 12 along the Y direction. The coin cassette 11 is formed in a rectangular box shape, and includes an insertion port 21 through which coins identified by the coin identification unit 3 described above pass, and a shutter opening/closing mechanism 22 having a shutter member 23 that opens and closes the insertion port 21.

When the coin cassette 11 is removed from the mounting section 12, the insertion port 21 is closed by the shutter member 23, and when the coin cassette 11 is mounted to the mounting section 12, the shutter member 23 moves to open the insertion port 21. The insertion port 21 is provided in the upper portion 11a of the coin cassette 11, and is formed as a rectangular opening. Details of the shutter member 23 and the shutter opening/closing mechanism 22 will be described later.

As shown in Figures 4 and 5, the mounting unit 12 has a chassis member 26 that forms a box-shaped storage space that holds the periphery of the mounted coin cassette 11. The chassis member 26 is supported by the slide mechanism 13 (see Figure 2) of the coin storage unit 5 so that it can slide in the Y direction relative to the inside of the deposit machine 1. The chassis member 26 of the mounting unit 12 is provided with a shutter operation member 27 that operates the shutter member 23 so that the insertion port 21 opens when the coin cassette 11 is mounted in the mounting unit 12. The chassis member 26 of the mounting unit 12 is also provided with an adjustment mechanism 31 for adjusting the attitude and position of the shutter operation member 27 relative to the insertion hole 28. Details of the shutter operation member 27 and the adjustment mechanism 31 will be described later.

As shown in FIG. 4, the coin cassette 11 has a circular insertion hole 28 as an insertion port into which the shutter operating member 27 is inserted when the coin cassette 11 is attached to the attachment section 12, and the shutter operating member 27 enters the inside of the coin cassette 11 through the insertion hole 28, causing the shutter operating member 27 to operate the shutter member 23. The insertion hole 28 is provided in the upper portion 11a on the side of the coin cassette 11, which faces the shutter operating member 27 provided in the attachment section 12, in the coin cassette 11 which is attached to and detached from the attachment section 12 along the Y direction.

The coin cassette 11 is also provided with a handle member 30 that is used when attaching or detaching the coin cassette 11 to or from the mounting section 12, and when transporting the coin cassette 11. The mounting section 12 is also provided with a coin ejection port 3b of the coin validator 3.

(Shutter opening and closing mechanism)
Fig. 6 is a perspective view showing a state in which the shutter member 23 in the embodiment closes the insertion port 21. Fig. 7 is a perspective view showing a state in which the shutter member 23 in the embodiment opens the insertion port 21. Figs. 6 and 7 are perspective views showing the shutter opening/closing mechanism 22 arranged inside the coin cassette 11 with a part of the upper part 11a of the coin cassette 11 removed.

As shown in Figures 6 and 7, the shutter opening/closing mechanism 22 is provided on the upper portion 11a of the coin cassette 11, and includes a shutter member 23 that opens and closes the coin slot 21, a plurality of rollers 24 that support the shutter member 23 so that it can move in the Y direction, and a tension coil spring 25 that biases the shutter member 23 along the Y direction to close the coin slot 21.

The shutter member 23 is formed in a rectangular plate shape and is disposed inside the upper portion 11a of the coin cassette 11. The shutter member 23 has an opening/closing portion 23a that opens and closes the insertion port 21, an operating piece 23b against which the tip portion 27a of the shutter operating member 27 that enters through the insertion hole 28 abuts, and a latch piece 23c on which one end of the tension coil spring 25 is hooked.

The operating piece 23b is formed in a position opposite the insertion hole 28. In addition, inside the upper part 11a of the coin cassette 11, near the insertion port 21, a hook portion 29 is formed on which the tension coil spring 25 is hooked.

The rollers 24 are arranged on both sides of the shutter member 23 in the X direction, and support the shutter member 23 so that it can move freely along the Y direction via a roller shaft 24a provided on the shutter member 23.

One end of the tension coil spring 25 is hooked to the latch piece 23c of the shutter member 23, and the other end is hooked to a latch portion 29 inside the coin cassette 11. Therefore, the tension coil spring 25 biases the shutter member 23 to close the insertion port 21 by its elastic force.

When the coin cassette 11 is attached to the attachment section 12 in the attachment/detachment direction (Y direction), the shutter operating member 27 is inserted into the insertion hole 28 of the coin cassette 11. When the tip 27a of the shutter operating member 27 pushes the operating piece 23b of the shutter member 23 in the Y direction against the biasing force of the tension coil spring 25, the opening/closing part 23a of the shutter member 23 is moved and the insertion slot 21 is opened. When the shutter operating member 27 moves in the Y direction away from the operating piece 23b of the shutter member 23, the opening/closing part 23a of the shutter member 23 is moved toward the insertion slot 21, closing the insertion slot 21.

(Shutter operating member and adjustment mechanism)
As shown in Fig. 4 and Fig. 5, the adjustment mechanism 31 is provided on the upper part 26a of the chassis member 26 of the mounting part 12 so as to face the insertion hole 28 arranged on the upper part 11a of the coin cassette 11. Fig. 8 is a perspective view showing the adjustment mechanism 31 in the embodiment. Fig. 9 is a perspective view showing the state in which the adjustment mechanism 31 in the embodiment is attached to the mounting part 12. Fig. 10 is an exploded perspective view showing the adjustment mechanism 31 in the embodiment.

As shown in Figures 8 and 9, the adjustment mechanism 31 supports the shutter operating member 27 so that its attitude and position can be adjusted. The adjustment mechanism 31 supports the tip 27a of the shutter operating member 27 so that it can rotate in the vertical direction (Z direction) as a first direction and in the horizontal direction (X direction) as a second direction perpendicular to the vertical direction (Z direction). The adjustment mechanism 31 also supports the shutter operating member 27 so that it can move parallel to the vertical direction (Z direction) and horizontal direction (X direction).

As shown in Figures 8, 9 and 10, the adjustment mechanism 31 has a first support member 33 that supports the shutter operating member 27, a first fastening member 34 that fixes the shutter operating member 27 to the first support member 33, a pair of second fastening members 35 that serve as a rotation axis that supports the first support member 33 so that it can rotate around the horizontal direction (X direction), a second support member 36 that supports the pair of second fastening members 35, and a pair of third fastening members 37 that fix the second support member 36 to the upper portion 26a of the chassis member 26.

For example, screws are used as the first fastening member 34, the second fastening member 35, and the third fastening member 37. The shutter operating member 27 is a shaft member that extends along the attachment/detachment direction (Y direction) of the coin cassette 11 relative to the mounting portion 12. The tip portion 27a of the shutter operating member 27 is formed in a tapered cone shape, and as shown in FIG. 10, a fixing hole 27c is formed in the base end portion 27b for fixing to the first support member 33 by the first fastening member 34.

The tip 27a of the shutter operating member 27 is formed in a conical shape, which increases the stability of the insertion operation of the tip 27a into the insertion hole 28, and the end face of the tip 27a is made smaller, which reduces variation in the contact state between the tip 27a and the operating piece 23b of the shutter member 23.

The shutter operating member 27 is not limited to the shaft member shown in FIG. 8, and may be, for example, a long plate member. In this case, the insertion hole 28 may be formed in a slit shape to match the shape of the tip of the plate member.

As shown in Figures 8 and 10, the first support member 33 is formed with a substantially U-shaped cross section and has a pair of support pieces 33a that each support the second fastening member 35. Each support piece 33a has a fixing hole 33b to which the second fastening member 35 is fixed. An engagement portion 33c into which the base end 27b of the shutter operating member 27 is inserted is formed in the center of a connecting piece 33d that connects the pair of support pieces 33a in the first support member 33. The first fastening member 34 is fixed to the fixing hole 27c of the base end 27b inserted into the engagement portion 33c, whereby the shutter operating member 27 is supported by the first support member 33.

The second support member 36 has a pair of support pieces 36a that respectively support each support piece 33a of the first support member 33 via the second fastening member 35, and a fixed piece 36b that is fixed to the upper part 26a of the chassis member 26. Each support piece 36a has a through hole 36c through which the second fastening member 35 is passed so as to be movable in the vertical Z direction. The through hole 36c is formed as an elongated hole having a major diameter in the Z direction. The fixed piece 36b has a fixed hole 36d to which a pair of third fastening members 37 are fixed. In addition, an opening 36e is formed between the pair of support pieces 36a of the second support member 36 at a position facing the first fastening member 34, and the first fastening member 34 can be operated through the opening 36e.

As shown in FIG. 10, a through hole 26b is formed in the upper portion 26a of the chassis member 26 of the mounting portion 12, through which the third fastening member 37 is passed so as to be movable in the horizontal X direction. The through hole 26b is formed as an elongated hole having a long diameter in the X direction (see FIG. 14).

In this embodiment, each shaft portion of the pair of second fastening members 35, for example, each thread portion of the screw, is used as a pivot shaft that rotatably supports the first support member 33, but one pivot shaft (not shown) may be used instead of the two second fastening members 35. Also, in this embodiment, the through hole 26b through which the third fastening member 37 passes is formed in the upper portion 26a of the chassis member 26, but instead of forming the through hole 26b on the chassis member 26 side, a through hole may be formed on the second support member 36 side, and the same effect as this embodiment can be obtained.

The operation of adjusting the attitude and position of the shutter operating member 27 in the adjustment mechanism 31 configured as above will be described. Figure 11 is a perspective view for explaining the state in which the shutter operating member 27 is adjusted in the vertical direction (Z direction) by the adjustment mechanism 31 in the embodiment. Figure 12 is a perspective view showing the state in which the tip 27a of the shutter operating member 27 is rotated in the vertical direction (Z direction) by the adjustment mechanism 31 in the embodiment.

(Attitude of the shutter operating member relative to the vertical direction)
11 and 12 , when the adjustment mechanism 31 adjusts the attitude of the shutter operating member 27 in the vertical direction (Z direction), the tip 27a of the shutter operating member 27 is rotated in the vertical direction (Z direction) by rotating the first support member 33 about the second fastening member 35 passed through the through hole 36c of the second support member 36. By fixing the first support member 33 to the second support member 36 by the second fastening member 35, the attitude of the tip 27a of the shutter operating member 27 adjusted in the vertical direction (Z direction) is fixed.

(Position of the shutter operating member in the vertical direction)
Fig. 13 is a perspective view for explaining a state in which the shutter operating member 27 is adjusted in the vertical direction (Z direction) by the adjustment mechanism 31 in the embodiment. As shown in Fig. 13, when the adjustment mechanism 31 adjusts the position of the shutter operating member 27 in the vertical direction (Z direction), the second fastening member 35 is moved in the Z direction along the through hole 36c of the second support member 36 to move the first support member 33 in the Z direction relative to the second support member 36. This causes the tip portion 27a of the shutter operating member 27 to move in parallel with the vertical direction (Z direction). By fixing the first support member 33 to the second support member 36 by the second fastening member 35, the position of the tip portion 27a of the shutter operating member 27 positioned in the vertical direction (Z direction) is fixed.

(Attitude and position of the shutter operating member relative to the horizontal direction)
Fig. 14 is a perspective view for explaining a state in which the shutter operating member 27 is adjusted in the horizontal direction (X direction) by the adjustment mechanism 31 in the embodiment. As shown in Fig. 14, when the adjustment mechanism 31 adjusts the position of the shutter operating member 27 in the horizontal direction (X direction), the tip 27a of the shutter operating member 27 is rotated in the horizontal direction (X direction) by rotating the second support member 36 around the third fastening member 37 passed through the through hole 26b of the chassis member 26. By fixing the second support member 36 to the chassis member 26 by the third fastening member 37, the attitude of the tip 27a of the shutter operating member 27 adjusted in the horizontal direction (X direction) is fixed.

When adjusting the attitude of the shutter operating member 27 in the horizontal direction (X direction), the adjustment mechanism 31 moves the third fastening member 37 in the X direction along the through hole 26b of the chassis member 26 to move the second support member 36 in the X direction relative to the chassis member 26. This causes the tip 27a of the shutter operating member 27 to move parallel to the horizontal direction (X direction). By fixing the second support member 36 to the chassis member 26 by the third fastening member 37, the position of the tip 27a of the shutter operating member 27 positioned in the horizontal direction (X direction) is fixed.

The adjustment mechanism 31 adjusts the attitude and position of the shutter operating member 27 using, for example, an adjustment jig (not shown). The adjustment jig has a positioning insertion hole formed in the same position as the insertion hole 28 of the coin cassette 11, and the attitude and position of the shutter operating member 27 is adjusted relative to the positioning insertion hole.

(Effects of the embodiment)
As described above, the coin storage unit 5 of the deposit machine 1 of the embodiment includes the shutter operation member 27 provided in the mounting unit 12 and actuating the shutter member 23 to open the insertion port 21 when the coin cassette 11 is mounted in the mounting unit 12, the insertion hole 28 provided in the coin cassette 11 and into which the shutter operation member 27 is inserted when the coin cassette 11 is mounted in the mounting unit 12, and an adjustment mechanism 31 provided in the mounting unit 12, supporting the tip 27a of the shutter operation member 27 rotatably in the vertical direction (Z direction) and the horizontal direction (X direction), respectively, and adjusting the attitude of the shutter operation member 27 with respect to the insertion hole 28. As a result, the adjustment mechanism 31 can adjust the attitude of the shutter operation member 27 with respect to the insertion hole 28 in the vertical direction (Z direction) and the horizontal direction (X direction). Therefore, the shutter operating member 27 can be easily adjusted so as to be smoothly inserted into the insertion hole 28, and it is possible to prevent damage to the shutter operating member 27 and the coin cassette 11 caused by the shutter operating member 27 not being smoothly inserted into the insertion hole 28 due to the dimensional accuracy or mounting accuracy of the shutter operating member 27. This improves the reliability of the opening and closing operation of the shutter member 23 of the coin cassette 11.

In addition, the adjustment mechanism 31 of the coin storage unit 5 in the embodiment supports the shutter operating member 27 so that it can move parallel to the vertical direction (Z direction) and horizontal direction (X direction). This allows the adjustment mechanism 31 to adjust the position of the shutter operating member 27 relative to the insertion hole 28 in the vertical direction (Z direction) and horizontal direction (X direction). This allows the shutter operating member 27 to be easily adjusted so that it can be smoothly inserted into the insertion hole 28.

The adjustment mechanism 31 of the coin storage unit 5 in the embodiment has a first support member 33 that supports the shutter operating member 27, and a second support member 36 that supports the first support member 33 rotatably around the horizontal direction (X direction) via a second fastening member 35. This allows the adjustment mechanism 31 to adjust the attitude of the shutter operating member 27 in the vertical direction (Z direction) with a simple structure.

In addition, the shutter operating member 27 of the coin storage unit 5 in the embodiment is a shaft member that extends along the attachment/detachment direction (Y direction) of the coin cassette 11 relative to the mounting unit 12. In this structure, it is necessary to ensure high accuracy in the attitude and position of the shutter operating member 27 relative to the insertion hole 28, so the adjustment mechanism 31 that can easily adjust the attitude and position of the shutter operating member 27 is highly effective.

In addition, the shaft member serving as the shutter operating member 27 of the coin storage unit 5 in the embodiment has a conical tip 27a. This increases the stability of the insertion operation of the tip 27a of the shutter operating member 27 into the insertion hole 28, and also reduces the variation in the contact state between the tip 27a and the operating piece 23b of the shutter member 23 by making the end face of the tip 27a smaller.

In the above-described embodiment, the adjustment mechanism 31 rotates the shutter operating member 27 vertically (Z direction) around the second fastening member 35 as a rotation axis, and rotates the shutter operating member 27 horizontally (X direction) around the third fastening member 37, but is not limited to this structure. For example, the orientation in which the adjustment mechanism 31 is attached to the chassis member 26 of the mounting unit 12 may be shifted by 90 degrees around the attachment/detachment direction (Y direction) of the coin cassette 11. In this case, the adjustment mechanism 31 rotates the second support member 36 around the third fastening member 37 to rotate the shutter operating member 27 vertically (Z direction), and rotates the first support member 33 around the second fastening member 35 to rotate the shutter operating member 27 horizontally (X direction).

The shutter operating member 27 is not limited to a shape extending linearly along the attachment/detachment direction (Y direction) of the coin cassette 11, and may be formed, for example, in a crank-like shape bent in the attachment/detachment direction (Y direction). When using such a shutter operating member, high accuracy is required for the attitude and position of the shutter operating member relative to the insertion hole, so the effects of the present disclosure are particularly high. Furthermore, the coin storage section 5 of the present disclosure may be applied to the banknote storage section 6 that stores banknotes as necessary, and the same effects as those of the embodiment can be obtained.
