Prism 53 as light guide section is mounted on the lower surface of the base portion 36A (Fig. 5) in the shutter 36 of inside, whole shape The prism-shaped elongated as front-rear direction.The front surface of prism 53 becomes the plane substantially vertical relative to front-rear direction, penetrates Detection light.On the other hand, the rear surface 53R of prism 53 become by lower end than upper end rearward in a manner of inclined plane, formed Reflect the reflecting surface of detection light.

According to above structure, if inside shutter 36 is in closed state, prism 53 makes the inspection from front surface incidence It surveys light rearward to advance, be reflected in rear surface 53R, make the detection light near the rear end of lower surface towards rear row obliquely downward Into.In the following, the detection light being emitted from prism 53 is referred to as detection light L1.Detection light L1 in accommodating space 12S, approximately along Up and down direction is to advance along from access hole 30H towards the direction of the bottom surface of accommodating space 12S.On the other hand, such as corresponding with Fig. 3 Fig. 6 shown in, if inside shutter 36 is in opening-wide state, from the rear surface of light-path 52 be emitted detection light it is not incident To front surface, therefore, prism 53 can not make detection light L1 advance into accommodating space 12S.

The light-path 54 and light-path 52 for passing through portion as detection light equally, are made of the resin material through detection light, It is generally formed into the elongated prism-shaped of up and down direction.The light-path 54 is mounted on the rear side and upper surface 54T of foreign matter receptacle 37 The position that will not be covered by the front surface for the banknote press machine 33 for being located at reception position.Also, the conduct of light-path 54 accommodates face Upper surface 54T through being inserted into the hole portion 31H2 worn on bottom plate 31.As shown in Figure 7 A, 7 B, so that upper surface 54T ratio The slightly lower mode in the upper surface of bottom plate 31 installs upper surface 54T.The light-path 54 keeps the detection light from upper surface 54T incidence downward Fang Hangjin is emitted downward from lower surface.

The downside of light-path 54 is arranged in and the position opposite with its lower surface in light receiving element 55.With test section 41 etc. by Optical element is same, which receives detection light, generate the detection signal for indicating whether to receive the detection light and by its It is sent to bank note control unit 11.

Bank note control unit 11 according to the detection signal received from light receiving element 55, judge in the optical path of detection light L1 whether there is or not Bank note.Specifically, bank note control unit 11 is judged as the detection in the case where receiving detection light L1 in light receiving element 55 Bank note is not present in the optical path of light L1.On the other hand, in the case where not receiving detection light L1, bank note control unit 11 judges For there are one or more bank note in the optical path of detection light L1.

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

But each component for constituting test section 50 is configured in the lateral direction at the center of the access hole 30H with shell 30 Comparable position.Here, for example, the length W1 (Fig. 4) from the left side of light-path 54 to right side side plate 35 compares banknotes in and out The length of 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 inside shutter 36 is closed is located at shell 30 in the longitudinal direction Access hole 30H substantial middle.Here, from the front end of access hole 30H to the distance D1 of the rear end of rear surface 53R and from out Enter the rear end of hole 30H to the front end of rear surface 53R distance 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 offset and with Any one side all around in access hole 30H abuts, and deposit/withdrawal unit 12 also can interdict detection light L1 by the paper.

[judgement that 1-3. is horizontally arranged the taking-up of bank note]

But in deposit/withdrawal unit 12, user will not be interfered to put into or take out bank note for accommodating space 12S, also, Detection light L1 is set to advance in accommodating space 12S approximately along up and down direction.Therefore, it in deposit/withdrawal unit 12, is opened and closed in inside The downside of device 36 is equipped with prism 53.

Therefore, in the state that inside shutter 36 are 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 inside shutter 36 is in opening-wide state, bank note control unit 11 Horizontal positioned bank note can not 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 Inside shutter 36 so that user is inserted notes here, closing outside shutter 5A and inside shutter 36.

At this point, firstly, 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 where being able to detect that bank note, be judged as exist so that paper be approximately towards front and back and make long side along left and right directions just Normal posture puts into the bank note in accommodating space 12S.At this point, bank note control unit 11 is believed according to the detection received from test section 43 Number, judge whether to have accommodated bank note without overflowing from accommodating space 12S, in the case where being judged as spilling, urges and utilizing Person puts into again.

On the other hand, bank note control unit 11 is judged as receiving in the case where that can not detect bank note by test section 41,42 The bank note of normal posture is not present 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 being able to detect that bank note, bank note control unit 11 is judged as in the presence of horizontal positioned bank note BL1.It is another Aspect, in the case where that can not detect bank note, bank note control unit 11 is judged as that there is no horizontal positioned bank note BL1.

Here, in the case where being judged as in the presence of horizontal positioned bank note BL1, bank note control unit 11 opens wide outside shutter 5A With inside shutter 36, user is made to take out horizontal positioned bank note BL1, or it is made to put into receiving sky again with normal posture Between in 12S.

At this point, bank note control unit 11 opened wide inside 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 inside shutter 36 The testing result for playing monitoring test section 43 is judged as in the case where detecting again after detection light is interdicted for the time being by utilizing The hand of person has taken out horizontal positioned bank note BL1, or is put into accommodating space 12S again with normal posture.

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