Definitions

  • the invention relates to a bill dispensing machine according to the generic part of claim 1.
  • a bill dispensing machine of that kind is known from US-A-3.828.166.
  • a cash register is disclosed containing a storage compartment with an empty-contact device for each denomination of banknotes and providing bill feed- and take-out means.
  • a banknote access station having a pivoted outlet flap for closing the access to a front aperture.
  • the outlet flap is normally locked and is only released for enabling a customer to remove banknotes. For that purpose the customer has to lift the outlet flap, because the flap will always fall under the influence of gravity into its closed position.
  • a cash issuing machine operated by a teller particularly a bill dispenser
  • the requested bill amount which is inputted by the teller through a keyboard responding to a customer's request is generally checked on the balance etc. by a host computer. If the dispensing is allowable, the host computer provides a dispensing command to cause some denomination of bills corresponding to the requested amount to be successively fed out from the cartridges and then to be stacked in a temporary store in a bill feed path.
  • the operation of the bill dispenser stops to suppress the subsequent feed-out operation and calls a teller's attention to fill up the exhausted cartridge. Accordingly, the teller or a person in charge can fill up the cartridge. In this case, the insufficient amount of bills stacked in the temporary store are collectively transferred into a reject box.
  • the above-mentioned bill feed-out operation is restarted from the beginning.
  • a controllable gate is provided that normally is opened in the case of a successful completion of the feed-out operation. But in the case of an uncompleted feed-out operation, that means when one or more bills are not fed out, the gate remains closed. Due to the closed gate the operator becomes aware of the fact that the feed-out operation was not successful. In consequence the operator can remove all other bills out of the dispenser machine by manually opening the gate and then can take the missing bills for example out of a safe. As a result, although the dispenser machine fed out an insufficient number of bills, the operator makes no error in handling the correct number of bills to the customer.
  • FIG. 1 is a block diagram of a banking system including a bill dispenser which can use this invention.
  • a host computer 1 installed in the head office of a bank stores the deposit files of customers who have accounts with this bank, checks the balance of a customer in response to request for dispensing bills that is transmitted from a keyboard 4 in a branch through a controller 2 over a communication line 3 and, if the dispensing is permissible, sends a dispensing command to the controller 2.
  • the controller 2 indicates on a display 5 the denominations and the numbers of the bills corresponding to the amount to be dispensed.
  • the teller may change the combination of the denomination and number of the bills according to the wish of the customer.
  • the number of bills on each denomination as determined above are sent to a bill dispenser 6 and a coin dispenser 7 from the controller 2 by a command. Because these dispensers do dispense exactly the amount of cash specified by the command, the teller can hand the dispensed cash to the customer as is without checking.
  • Figure 2 shows the bill feed paths schematically in the above-mentioned bill dispenser 6. It has four bill cartridges, each of which can hold any denomination of bills up to a predetermined amount (e.g. 200 bills) respectively.
  • a cartridge 8 can hold ten-thousand-yen bills
  • a cartridge 9 five-thousand-yen bills
  • cartridges 10 and 11 one-thousand-yen and five-hundred-yen bills respectively.
  • another cartridge for one-thousand-yen or ten-thousand-yen bills which is frequently dispensed may be provided instead of the cartridge for five-hundred-yen bills. Any combination of cartridges for any denominations may be chosen.
  • Each cartridge has a mechanism operable to feed out the specified amount of bills.
  • the bill(s) fed from each cartridge passes through a feeding path 14, which consists of belts or rollers, and is stacked in a temporary reservoir or store 15.
  • a feeding path 14 which consists of belts or rollers, and is stacked in a temporary reservoir or store 15.
  • a feeding path 14 which consists of belts or rollers, and is stacked in a temporary reservoir or store 15.
  • an no error condition such as overlapped bills or torn bills is detected by a sensor 16
  • all of the bills in the temporary store 15 are collectively transferred to a take-out port 17. If an error condition is detected, all of the bills in the temporary store are transferred into a reject box 18, and the operation for dispensing the bills is repeated for the transaction.
  • Each cartridge is also provided with a device 13 for detecting the bill exhaustion in the cartridge. If any of the detecting devices 13 detects an empty cartridge, the bill feed-out operation from the associated cartrigde is immediately stopped.
  • Figure 3 shows the construction of the take-out port 17. While a gate 31 is shown in its open state in Figure 3, it is usually in an upright position, namely the closed state.
  • the belt 33 is driven by a motor (not shown) to rotate a shaft 34 counter-clockwise to open the gate 31 to the illustrated position. Then, the teller can take out the bills and hand them to the customer.
  • the gate 31 is returned to its closed state by a spring 35.
  • the teller may open the gate 31 by hand to take out the bills, or may open the gate by driving the belt 33 through the operation of a push button or the like (not shown) to take out the bills.
  • the bill dispenser 6 is requested by the controller 2 to dispense one-hundred-thousand-yen, for example, in seven ten-thousand-yen bills, two five-thousand-yen bills, eighteen one-thousand-yen bills, and four five-hundred-yen bills.
  • the bill dispenser 6 feeds out seven bills from the cartridge 8 for ten-thousand-yen bills, and then two bills from the cartridge 9 for five-thousand-yen bills to the temporary store 15. Further eighteen bills begin to be fed out from the cartridge 10 for one-thousand-yen bills.
  • the bill dispenser detects it, stops the feed-out operation in the cartridge 10, and informs the teller of the bill exhaustion by turning on a lamp indicating that the cartridge is empty.
  • the operation of the bill dispenser is continued to feed out four bills from the next cartridge for five-hundred-yen bills to the temporary store 13.
  • the bills stacked in the temporary store 13 are collectively transferred to the take-out port 17 but the gate 31 does not open because the bill exhaustion has been detected in the cartridge 10.
  • the bill dispenser 6 sends to the controller 2 the signals representing information on the denominations and numbers of the bills actually fed out, namely seven bills actually fed out, namely seven bills from the cartridge 8, two from the cartridge 9, fifteen from the cartridge 10 and four from the cartridge 11.
  • the controller 2 compares the denominations and numbers of the bills to be dispensed with those of the bills actually fed out and, when it is detected that the feeding-out of the bills comes short by three one-thousand-yen bills, the controller issues to the display 5 a command for causing it to display the denominations and numbers for the shortage. Then, the teller opens the gate 31 by hand to take out the bills fed out there and also takes out bills corresponding to the shortage displayed on the display 5 from a safe to hand them together to the customer.
  • Figure 4 is a flow chart generally illustrating its operating steps.
  • the teller can easily become aware of the bill exhaustion in the cartridge because the gate of the take-out port does not open automatically when such a problem occurs, making an error in handling the wrong amount of bills to the customer can be prevented.
