Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method for processing sheet material, in particular securities such as banknotes, checks, etc., in which different groups of sheet material are processed one after the other.
  • banknote processing machines are used to process different groups of sheet material in succession.
  • the different groups of sheet material are formed by different groups of banknotes, which in turn correspond to different deposits or deliveries, such as result from the billing of different customers of a bank.
  • the different groups of banknotes can also come from a single customer of the bank, for example from a department store.
  • the different groups of banknotes are then, for example, the daily income from different cash registers.
  • the banknotes are generally checked for authenticity, the value of the banknotes is determined, each group of banknotes forming a billing unit for which the total value of the banknotes is determined.
  • the individual banknotes are also sorted and filed, for which purpose, for example, the value of the banknotes is used. Two methods have become known for processing the groups of banknotes or the billing units.
  • a billing unit is opened for each group of banknotes, to which the respective group of banknotes is assigned during processing with the banknote processing machine.
  • the operator then inserts the banknotes into the banknote processing machine and the processing takes place.
  • Banknotes that could not be recognized correctly during processing, for example because they were identified as counterfeit or suspected of being counterfeit the or because of a malfunction in processing in the banknote processing machine are stacked in a special output unit. These banknotes have to be processed again, either by a further processing operation in the banknote processing machine or by the operator.
  • the billing unit is then closed by the operator and the processing of a further billing unit can - as described above - take place.
  • the different groups of banknotes are divided by means of separating cards before processing with the banknote processing machine.
  • the operator assigns each separation card to a billing unit in the banknote processing machine.
  • a batch consisting of several groups of banknotes separated by separation cards is automatically and continuously processed by the banknote processing machine.
  • the banknotes are processed in the same way as described above for the first method.
  • the banknote processing machine ne the separation cards are observed during processing.
  • the banknote processing machine recognizes the end or the start of a billing unit, and on the other hand, by assigning the separation cards to certain billing units by the operator, it can credit the billing unit with the data determined for the associated group of banknotes.
  • the second known method has advantages over the first known method in terms of the time required for the billing of the different groups of banknotes, but on the one hand the problem arises that the separation of the different groups of banknotes by the operator by means of separation cards is prone to errors. On the other hand, it is in the event of a malfunction in the banknote processing machine in which it is e.g. B. comes to a jam or overlap of the banknotes, almost impossible to assign all banknotes to a group of banknotes the correct accounting unit or the correspondingly assigned separation card. As a result, it is no longer possible to correctly bill the various groups of banknotes and assign them to the respective supplier.
  • the object of the present invention is therefore to specify a method for processing sheet material, in particular securities such as banknotes, checks, etc., in which different groups of sheet material are processed one after the other, which allows simple and less error-prone operation.
  • the advantage of the invention is particularly to be seen in the fact that the saving of inputs by an operator enables accelerated processing of different groups of sheet material, which results in a higher throughput, which is further improved by the fact that an identification for a group of Sheet material can be detected while another group of sheet material is being processed.
  • processing is less susceptible to errors that would otherwise occur during operation, since operator input is no longer necessary.
  • Figure 1 shows a basic structure of a processing machine for processing different groups of sheet material
  • Figure 2 shows an embodiment of a flow chart for processing different groups of sheet material.
  • FIG. 1 shows a basic structure of a processing machine 1 for processing various groups of sheet material.
  • the processing machine 1 and the processing sequence are described below using the processing of different groups of banknotes as an example.
  • the bank note processing machine 1 has an input 3 for the input of bank notes 2 to be processed, a separating unit 4 in order to transfer individual pieces of the bank notes 2 to a transport system 5.
  • the transport system 5 transports the individual banknotes through a sensor unit 6, which checks the individual banknotes together with a control device 20.
  • the separated banknotes are transported by the transport system 5 in output units 8, 9, 11, 13, 15, 17, switches 7, 10, 12, 14 being operated by the control device 20, depending on the result of the check feed the sheet material to the respective output unit.
  • the output units can be designed as so-called spiral compartment stackers, which have a rotating unit 8 with spiral compartments, into which the separated banknotes are inserted by the transport system 5 in order to stack them in the output 9.
  • the control unit 20 is connected to the components of the bank note processing machine 1 via control lines 21 and evaluates data originating from the components in order to control the components.
  • further data relate, for example, to the input 3 and the output unit 8, 9, which, for. B. have light barriers to determine whether there are banknotes in the input 3 or in the output 9.
  • a reading unit 23 e.g. B. a bar code reader connected to the control device 20 in order to be able to capture information.
  • processing for different groups of banknotes, for each of which an accounting unit AE is to be formed is started. This can be done for example by means of the input / output unit 22, by selection from a menu control.
  • no accounting unit AE is open, i. H. has not yet been finally settled, and the transport system 5 is at a standstill.
  • an identification number AE number which is assigned, for example, to a consignor or is assigned later, is read in for the accounting unit to be formed.
  • This can be done, for example, with the bar code reader 23, with which a bar code is read from, for example, a separation card.
  • a separation card is particularly suitable because it can be used in further processing.
  • it is also possible to enter a corresponding identification number AE number using the input / output unit 22.
  • the first accounting unit AE1 is opened by the control unit 20, the transport system 5 is stationary.
  • a third processing step 102 e.g. B. by evaluating the signals of the light barrier, checks whether banknotes are in the input 3. However, this can be the case when processing the first accounting unit AE1 remain under.
  • the transport system 5 is then started automatically or by the operator pressing a start button.
  • a fourth processing step 104 the separation card is transferred to the rejection compartment RF (8, 9). This can be done, for example, by the operator inserting the separation card into the rejection compartment 9. However, it is also possible to insert the separating card in the input 3 in order to detect it by the singling unit 4 and to transfer it from the transport system 5, under the control of the control unit 20 and actuation of the switch 7, to the rejection compartment 9.
  • a fifth processing step 105 the first group of bank notes, which form the first billing unit AE1, is inserted into the input 3. Instead of inserting the separation card individually into the input 3, as described above, this can also be inserted together with the associated group of banknotes.
  • the processing of the banknotes is then started, the banknotes are checked and billed as described above in connection with FIG. 1. The result of the billing, in particular the number and denomination of the banknotes and the total value, are assigned by the control unit 20 to the first billing unit AE1.
  • a sixth processing step 106 it is checked whether bank notes could not be recognized during the check and were therefore transported into the rejection compartment 9, e.g. B. by the operator or by evaluating the light barrier by the control unit 20. If such banknotes are present, they can be processed again by the banknote processing machine 1 by removing them from the rejection compartment 9 and again into the input 3 be inserted.
  • the checking and assignment to the accounting unit AE1 is carried out analogously as described above. If there are still banknotes in rejection compartment 9 after the repeated check, further repetitions are possible.
  • the separation card and banknotes - if still present - are removed from the rejection compartment 9 in order to be able to check them again at a later point in time and to enable the possibly still existing banknotes to be assigned to the accounting unit AE1 by means of the separation card.
  • the banknotes can also remain in the rejection compartment 9 together with the associated separating card, since the banknotes of different groups of banknotes, ie different accounting units, are separated by the separating cards.
  • a seventh processing step 107 it is checked whether a further billing unit AE2 is to be processed.
  • the operator can be asked by the control device, for example via the display 22, to enter or read in an additional identification number for the further billing unit AE2.
  • the processing is ended by the operator, for example by pressing a stop button. If the processing is ended, the accounting unit AE1 is closed by the control device 20. The billing data of the billing unit AE1 are thus available for later evaluation. The billing data of the billing unit AE1 can be made available to other processing stations by means of data carriers such as floppy disks or a network connection or by means of a printout. The bank note processing machine 1 or the transport system 5 can be switched off or stopped by the control device 20. If the further accounting unit AE2 is to be processed, the processing described above is resumed in the second processing step 101. First, the identification number of the accounting unit AE2 is read from a separation card.
  • the processing of the new billing unit AE2 can therefore not be started 103 until these banknotes have been processed. If the input 3 is empty, the processing of the previous billing unit AE1 is complete and the billing unit AE1 is closed by the control unit 20. The new billing unit AE2 can thus be opened by the control unit 20 and the further processing can be carried out analogously to the above description. In contrast to the processing of the first billing unit AE1 described above, the transport system 5 is already switched on in the subsequent billing unit AE2.
  • the singling unit 4 is only started if no new identification number for a new accounting unit has been entered for an open, ie not yet completed accounting unit, and if bank notes are in the input 3.
  • the identification number of the separation card can also be detected with the sensor unit 6 instead of the bar code reader 23 as described above if the separation card is inserted into the input 3 together with the banknotes. If in the rejection compartment 9 a further sensor, not shown, e.g. B. a bar code reader is provided, the identification number of the separation card can also be recorded in the rejection compartment 9 if the separation card, as described above, has been transported either by the user or by the transport system 5 in the rejection compartment 9.
  • the separating card - in the example described - is placed on top of the group of banknotes before these are inserted into input 3.
  • the separation card is separated last and, if bank notes were rejected, the last one is placed in rejection compartment 9.
  • the separation card can also be inserted into the rejection compartment 9 after the operator has finished processing.
  • the identification number of the separation card can - as described above - be detected by means of the bar code reader 23, the input / output unit 22, the sensor unit 6 or by means of an additional sensor in the rejection compartment 9. If the additional sensor of the rejection compartment 9 is used when the separation card is processed last, the identification number of the separation card is only assigned to the accounting unit at the end of the processing.
  • the order in which the separation card was last processed follows, has the advantage that the separation cards or the associated banknotes stored in the rejection compartment 9 can be checked by the operator at a glance, as a result of which the correct completion of the processing of a group of banknotes or an accounting unit can be ascertained. This check can also be carried out automatically by the additional sensor.
  • a clipboard can be provided in the rejection compartment 9, e.g. B. in the form of an intermediate floor on which the banknotes or the separating cards are placed during the processing of a billing unit. If, after the billing unit has ended, only the separating card has been placed on the intermediate floor, it is automatically removed or the operator is requested to do so by the control unit 20 via the input / output unit 22. If banknotes have been rejected, the intermediate bottom is pulled out of the rejection compartment 9, so that the banknotes and the associated separating card are stored in the rejection compartment 9. The intermediate shelf for processing the next accounting unit is then reinserted into the rejection compartment 9.
  • a superordinate accounting unit For example, the accounting units, which correspond to the daily income of all the checkouts in a department store, can be combined to form a superordinate accounting unit, which is the Represents department store.
  • Another higher-level billing unit can e.g. B. for all processed on a banknote processing machine 1 accounting units.
  • Another higher-level billing unit can be formed for all the billing units that have been processed by an operator, e.g. B. within a processing layer.
