Abstract:
A convey path switching module includes a body and a switching mechanism. The body has first, second and third convey paths. The switching mechanism includes a first switching assembly, a first actuator, a second switching assembly and at least one elastic member. The first actuator drives the first switching assembly to pivotally rotate. The second switching assembly is adapted to pivotally rotate and is restored by an elastic force of the elastic member. By pivotally rotating of the first and second switching assemblies, the switching mechanism is switched to a first state to open the first convey path and close the second and third convey paths, is switched to a second state to open the second convey path and close the first and third convey paths, and is switched to a third state to open the third convey path and close the first and second convey paths.

Claim (Index 20):
A paper sheet handling apparatus, comprising:\n a paper sheet handling module, comprising:\n a first casing, having an inlet, an outlet, and a first opening, and a second opening wherein a convey path set is provided in the first casing, and the paper sheet handling module is adapted to receive a paper sheet via the inlet and discharge a paper sheet via the outlet; \n a discrimination module, disposed in the casing and adapted to discriminate the paper sheet; and \n a convey path switching module, disposed in the casing, wherein the convey path set is adapted to convey the paper sheet from the inlet to the convey path switching module through the discrimination module, and the convey path switching module comprises: \n a body, having a first convey path, a second convey path, and a third convey path adapted to convey the paper sheet, and connected among the convey path set, the first opening and the second opening, wherein the convey path set is adapted to convey the verified paper sheet from the discrimination module to the first opening via the second convey path, adapted to convey the verified paper sheet from the discrimination module to the outlet via the first convey path, adapted to convey the verified paper sheet from the first opening to the outlet via the third convey path, and adapted to convey the verified paper sheet from the discrimination module to the second opening via the first convey path; and \n a switching mechanism, comprising:\n a first switching assembly, pivotally connected to the body; and \n a second switching assembly, pivotally connected to the body, wherein: \n through pivotal rotation of the first switching assembly and pivotal rotation of the second switching assembly, the switching mechanism is adapted to be switched to a first state to open the first convey path and close the second convey path and the third convey path, adapted to be switched to a second state to open the second convey path and close the first convey path and the third convey path, and adapted to be switched to a third state to open the third convey path and close the first convey path and the second convey path; and \n \n a paper sheet storage module, comprising a second casing, at least one circulating storage box, and a non-circulating storage box, wherein the second casing has a third opening and a fourth opening, the third opening and the fourth opening are respectively aligned to the first opening and the second opening, a path of the convey path set connected to the convey path switching module passes through the first opening and the third opening and is branched into at least one first branched path, another path of the convey path set connected to the convey path switching module passes through the second opening and the fourth opening and is branched into a second branched path, the at least one circulating storage box is disposed on the first branched path and adapted to store paper sheets, and the non-circulating storage box is disposed on the second branched path and adapted to store rejected paper sheets.
