Abstract: A paper identification counter comprises a counter body, a hopper which is formed to the counter body and to which papers to be identified and counted are fed, a paper conveyance unit including a conveyance passage along which the papers such as currency notes from the hopper is conveyed one by one in a direction of a short width side of the papers, a paper identification unit disposed on a way of the conveyance passage for identifying and counting the papers; and a stacker in which the papers delivered from the conveyance passage are stacked. The conveyance passage includes a U-shaped curvilinear conveyance region on a way between the hopper and the stacker.

Abstract: A sheet discriminating/counting machine selects sheets to be discriminated of a predetermined country or region by discrimination object selecting means, transports the sheets to be discriminated at high speed along a transporting path, and performs sheet discriminating/counting processing at a sheet discriminating/counting unit disposed along the transporting path. The sheet discriminating/counting machine comprises: a hopper to which sheets to be discriminated are supplied; a sheet transporting device for transporting sheets supplied to the hopper one by one along a transporting path with the shorter side of each sheet parallel to the transporting direction; a sheet discriminating unit disposed along the transporting path for discriminating/counting sheets; and a stacker upon which sheets fed out from the transporting path are stacked.

Abstract: An electric one-bag golf cart that carries a single caddie bag for a player on a golf course is provided. The cart body, including a chassis part, a neck part and a steering device part, is formed as an integral hollow piece using the rotational molding method. The wheel system provided under the chassis consists of one front wheel and two rear wheels, with the front wheel being mounted pivotally on a suspension as a free wheel, while the rear wheels are driving wheels using a differential gear device driven by a motor. At the center of the handlebars, which are made of circular rods, a dial-type speed controller is located, and a brake lever is provided under the steering device, together with a lock mechanism.

Abstract: An electrically driven cart driven by an electric motor in which a baggage such as golf bag is carried comprises a body frame, a driving source comprising the electric motor, a drive shaft operatively connected to the driving source, a pair of right and left wheels serving as driving wheels which are operatively coupled to be rotatable to both ends of the drive shaft of the motor, a power transmitting mechanism disposed between the drive shaft and the driving wheels to transmit a power of the motor to the driving wheels through the drive shaft, and a carrier secured to the body frame on which a baggage is rested.

Abstract: An improved counter for documents, currency, paper money, sheets or the like achieves low weight, low power consumption, low cost and high counting accuracy by a feeding mechanism in which a first roller or set of rollers successively feeds a sheet from the bottom of a stack thereof to a second roller or set of rollers for further feeding, on a sheet-by-sheet basis, to a pair of pulling rollers which pulls each sheet at high speed and dispenses it. The first and second rollers or sets of rollers have about their respective peripheries portions having a large coefficient of friction and portions having a small coefficient of friction. Such intermittent feed rollers are synchronized to rotate with related space phases, i.e. with the low friction coefficient portion of each roller in contact with its associated sheet at the same time, thus assuring that the pulling rollers require minimal torque to pull each sheet away from the second of the intermittent rollers.

Abstract: By utilizing first and second spaced, joined, co-axial disks with coin-receiving peripheral openings, such disks being separated from each other in the region of said peripheral openings by a fixed ring member having an opening therethrough to permit the passage of coins from the peripheral openings in said first disk to the peripheral openings in said second disk, said first and second disks rotating in unison at a first speed, and a third co-axial disk rotating at a higher speed than said first and second disks and positioned parallel to and adjacent to the second disk whereby coins falling in the peripheral openings of said second disk are urged outwardly by the relative motion of said second and third disks, to contact a rim member having openings of graduated width therethrough corresponding to the diameters of different coins; those different coins may be effectively and accurately separated or sorted into respective types or denominations.
