<p>A device for validating and accumulating bills and coins, comprises fixed and movable chute mechanisms (6 and 8) forming therebetween a bill passage (3), magnetic heads (31, 32, 33) for validating bills passing through the bill passage, and head pressing rollers (34, 42) for pressing bills against the magnetic heads. A feature of this device is that, when a counterfeit bill is to be returned by reversing the travel of a bill conveying belt (10) constituting one part of the fixed chute mechanism (6), a mechanism automatically operates to move each head pressing roller (34,42) clear of the bill passage (3) thereby to prevent jamming of the bill. Another feature is that the driving shafts (14) respectively of the bill conveying belt (10) and of a coin conveying belt (11) are coaxially coupled by way of a one-way clutch (20), whereby when the bill conveying belt (10) is driven in reverse direction for rejection and return of a bill, the coin conveying belt (11) is stopped thereby to prevent reverse conveying of coins.</p> |
