Medium accommodation apparatus and medium transaction device

Technical field

The present invention relates to medium accommodation apparatus and medium transaction device, such as relate to be applied to make user put into paper Page shape medium as coin carries out expecting the cash ATM (ATM of transaction：Automatic Teller Machine) Deng medium accommodation apparatus and medium transaction device.

Background technology

Transaction content between the basis such as cash ATM used in conventional financial institution etc. and customer, for example Customer is set to be stored in the cashes such as currency or coin or to customer payment cash.

As cash ATM, propose that there is deposit/withdrawal unit, delivery section, for the time being identification part, reserve part, multiple bank note Collecting storage facility, the structure for rejecting storehouse.Deposit/withdrawal unit for example carries out bank note between customer and gives and accepts.Delivery section conveys bank note.Identification The currency type and the true and false of the input bank note of portion's identification.For the time being reserve part retains for the time being input bank note.Multiple bill storages According to each currency type storage bank note.Reject the bank note that storehouse storage should not be reused.Cash ATM utilizes control unit pair Overall process is controlled.

Deposit/withdrawal unit for example have in the state of accumulation house bank note receiving space, be either open or closed the receiving space Shutter, bank note one by one in separating and storing space and be taken into the separating mechanism inside device.

The cash ATM opens wide the shutter of deposit/withdrawal unit in income transaction, makes user to receiving space Insert notes here.Then, after cash ATM closing shutter, using in separating mechanism one by one separating and storing space Bank note, convey bank note successively using delivery section.Then, cash ATM recognizes the currency type of each bank note using identification part Deng the bank note containing of normal bank note will be identified as in reserve part for the time being.On the other hand, cash ATM makes foreign bank note Such bank note for being identified as concluding the business returns to deposit/withdrawal unit and returns to user.Further, cash ATM to User points out the Amount in Total of the bank note received in reserve part for the time being, confirms the continuation of income transaction.It is existing when indicating to continue Golden ATM again identifies that the bank note received in reserve part for the time being using identification part, is accommodated in each bank note according to its currency type and receives Receive in storehouse, and will be identified as the larger bank note containing of degree of injury reject storehouse in.

Also, deposit/withdrawal unit has for detecting the test section that bank note whether is accommodated with receiving space.The test section example Such as it is made up of the combination of the light-emitting component for sending regulation detection light and the photo detector for receiving the detection light.Light-emitting component and light Element is each configured to make detection light cross in receiving space (referring for example to Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication 2012-238247 publications the (the 1st Figure)).

Control unit for example makes the stage that user inserts notes here to deposit/withdrawal unit in income transaction, is not detected by test section To bank note in the case of, it is identified as user and does not insert notes here, terminate the income transaction, proceeds by next trading processing.

The content of the invention

The invention problem to be solved

But, in the deposit/withdrawal unit of said structure, the prespecified paper that can be properly separated by separating mechanism and be taken into The posture (calling it as normal posture below) of coin.The normal posture be, for example, make the length direction of bank note towards left and right directions, Make short side direction towards above-below direction, make posture of the paper towards fore-and-aft direction.Further, deposit/withdrawal unit is for example made in receiving space Fore-and-aft direction length it is shorter, it is particularly short than the minor face of bank note, accordingly, it is difficult to beyond normal posture posture input paper Coin, promotes with the input of normal posture.

Intersect with the light path of detection light in bank note and in the case of having interdicted the detection light, photo detector cannot receive the inspection Light-metering, thus, the test section of deposit/withdrawal unit detects the presence of the bank note of more than one.Generally, the thickness of bank note is minimum (such as 0.1mm etc.), it is difficult to the thickness for passing through the bank note of one or several sheets or so interdicts completely the light path of detection light.Therefore, exist In deposit/withdrawal unit, such as to make light path configure test section along in the way of fore-and-aft direction so that the light path of detection light with normal The paper of the bank note that posture is housed intersects.

But, in deposit/withdrawal unit, unskilled user may be inserted notes here with the posture different from normal posture, example As making long side towards before and after and make paper approximately along bank note (the calling it as horizontal positioned bank note below) load of level Put in the top of receiving space.In this case, the test section of deposit/withdrawal unit is configured to the light path of detection light along fore-and-aft direction, Therefore, it is impossible to detect whether to have put into whether bank note and the bank note are horizontal positioned bank note.

Therefore, in cash ATM, for example user is thrown with the state of horizontal positioned bank note in income transaction In the case of having entered bank note, it is impossible to detect the horizontal positioned bank note, therefore, it is mistakenly identified as not inserting notes here.Thus, cash is automatic Automatic teller machine terminates income transaction and does not return the bank note put into receiving space sometimes.

Light-emitting component 51 is located at the position of the forward side in front end when closed state is in than inner side shutter 36.The luminous unit Part 51 is constituted in the same manner as the light-emitting component of test section 41, and towards rear detection light is sent.Light-path 52 is by through detection light Resin material is constituted, and is formed as the elongated prism-shaped of fore-and-aft direction.The light-path 52 is arranged on light-emitting component 51 and is opened and closed with inner side Between device 36, make to be directly toward rear traveling and from rear surface outgoing from the incident detection light of front surface.

On the lower surface of the base portion 36A (Fig. 5) being arranged in inner side shutter 36 as the prism 53 of light guide section, overall shape Become the elongated prism-shaped of fore-and-aft direction.The front surface of prism 53 becomes relative to the substantially vertical plane of fore-and-aft direction, passes through Detection light.On the other hand, the rear surface 53R of prism 53 become by lower end than upper end rearward in the way of inclined plane, formed The reflecting surface of reflection detection light.

According to said structure, if inner side shutter 36 is in closed state, prism 53 is made from the incident inspection of front surface Light-metering is rearward advanced, and is reflected in rear surface 53R, makes the detection light from the rear end of lower surface nearby towards tiltedly lower rear row Enter.Below, detection light L1 will be referred to as from the detection light of the outgoing of prism 53.Detection light L1 in receiving space 12S, approximately along Above-below direction is advanced along the direction from access hole 30H towards the bottom surface of receiving space 12S.On the other hand, it is such as corresponding with Fig. 3 Fig. 6 shown in, if inner side shutter 36 is in opening-wide state, the detection light from the rear surface outgoing of light-path 52 is incident To front surface, therefore, prism 53 cannot make detection light L1 advance into receiving space 12S.

It is same with light-path 52 through the light-path 54 in portion as detection light, it is made up of the resin material through detection light, It is generally formed into the elongated prism-shaped of above-below direction.The light-path 54 is arranged on the rear side and upper surface 54T of foreign matter receptacle 37 Will not be by the position of the front surface masking of the banknote forcing press 33 positioned at reception position.Also, the conduct of light-path 54 houses face Upper surface 54T through being inserted into hole portion 31H2 worn on base plate 31.As shown in Figure 7 A, 7 B, so that upper surface 54T ratios The mode that the upper surface of base plate 31 is slightly lower installs upper surface 54T.The light-path 54 makes downward from the incident detection lights of upper surface 54T Fang Hangjin, from lower surface outgoing downward.

Photo detector 55 is arranged on the downside of light-path 54 and the position relative with its lower surface.With receiving for the grade of test section 41 Optical element is same, and the photo detector 55 receives detection light, generation indicate whether to receive the detection signal of the detection light and by its It is sent to bank note control unit 11.

Bank note control unit 11 judges whether there is in the light path of detection light L1 according to the detection signal received from photo detector 55 Bank note.Specifically, in the case of detection light L1 is received in photo detector 55, bank note control unit 11 is judged as the detection There is no bank note in the light path of light L1.On the other hand, in the case where detection light L1 is not received, bank note control unit 11 judges For the bank note for having more than one in the light path of detection light L1.

Thus, it is such for bank note BL1 for example as shown in Figure 3, to be clamped in inclining for the upside drawn in guiding piece 32 Mode between the sloping portion of the upside in inclined portion point and banknote forcing press 33 make paper approximately along level bank note (below Call it as horizontal positioned bank note), bank note control unit 11 also can correctly judge that it has according to the light result of detection light L1 Nothing.

But, each part of composition test section 50 is configured in the lateral direction the center with the access hole 30H of housing 30 Suitable position.Here, for example, length W1 (Fig. 4) from the left surface of light-path 54 to right side side plate 35 compares banknotes in and out The length on the most short long side in machine 10 in bank note to be processed is short.

Also, the rear surface 53R (Fig. 3) of the prism 53 when inner side shutter 36 is closed is located in the longitudinal direction housing 30 Access hole 30H substantial middle.Here, from the front end of access hole 30H to the rear end of rear surface 53R apart from D1 and from going out Enter the rear end of hole 30H to the front end of rear surface 53R apart from D2 than in bank note to be processed in banknotes in and out machine 10 most The length on short side is short.

Therefore, minimum bank note to be processed becomes horizontal positioned bank note BL1 in banknotes in and out machine 10, though skew and with Any one side all around in access hole 30H abuts, and deposit/withdrawal unit 12 also can be by paper blocking detection light L1.

[judgement of the taking-up of 1-3. horizontal positioned bank note]

But, in deposit/withdrawal unit 12, user will not be hindered to put into for receiving space 12S or take out bank note, also, Detection light L1 is set to advance approximately along above-below direction in receiving space 12S.Therefore, in deposit/withdrawal unit 12, in inner side opening and closing The downside of device 36 is provided with prism 53.

Therefore, in the state of inner side shutter 36 is only enclosed in deposit/withdrawal unit 12, bank note control unit 11 being capable of basis Detection light L1 determines whether horizontal positioned bank note.In other words, when inner side shutter 36 is in opening-wide state, bank note control unit 11 Horizontal positioned bank note cannot be determined whether according to detection light L1.

For example, bank note control unit 11 opens wide the outside shutter 5A and deposit/withdrawal unit 12 into bank note dispensing port 5 in income transaction Inner side shutter 36 make user insert notes here, closing outside shutter 5A and inner side shutter 36.

Now, first, bank note control unit 11 judges whether to detect bank note by test section 41 and 42.Bank note control unit 11 exists In the case of being able to detect that bank note, be judged as exist so that paper be approximately towards before and after and make long edge left and right directions just Often posture puts into the bank note in receiving space 12S.Now, bank note control unit 11 is according to the detection letter received from test section 43 Number, judge whether to have housed that bank note, without overflowing from receiving space 12S, in the case where being judged as overflowing, is urged and utilized Person puts into again.

On the other hand, bank note control unit 11 is judged as housing in the case where detecting bank note by test section 41,42 There is no the bank note of normal posture in the 12S of space.In this case, bank note control unit 11 further determines whether to be examined by test section 50 Measure bank note.In the case where bank note is able to detect that, bank note control unit 11 is judged as there is horizontal positioned bank note BL1.It is another Aspect, in the case where detecting bank note, bank note control unit 11 is judged as there is no horizontal positioned bank note BL1.

Here, in the case where being judged as there is horizontal positioned bank note BL1, bank note control unit 11 opens wide outside shutter 5A With inner side shutter 36, make user take out horizontal positioned bank note BL1, or make it put into collecting sky again with normal posture Between in 12S.

Now, bank note control unit 11 opened wide inner side shutter 36, therefore, it is impossible to using the light result of detection light L1 come Judge whether user has taken out horizontal positioned bank note BL1.Therefore, time point of the bank note control unit 11 from unlimited inner side shutter 36 The testing result of monitoring test section 43 is played, in the case of detecting again after detection light is interrupted for the time being, is judged as by utilizing The hand of person has taken out horizontal positioned bank note BL1, or is put into again in receiving space 12S with normal posture.

So, in the state of inner side shutter 36 has been opened wide, test section 50 is not that direct detection has to bank note control unit 11 It is so-called to judge whether user takes out indirectly without horizontal positioned bank note BL1, but by using the testing result of test section 43 Horizontal positioned bank note BL1.
