2. Description of the Related Art As an example of a circulation type coin depositing and dispensing machine, there is known one disclosed in Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 10-97667. In this coin depositing and dispensing machine, when coins are inserted from an insertion slot, the inserted coins are discriminated and counted by a discriminating section, and then classified by denomination by a coin classifying section, and the gold disposed at the bottom is Deposit is temporarily stored in the storage unit of each type. Then, when an approval operation for approving the deposit amount is input, the coins temporarily stored in the storage units of the respective denominations are replaced with the coins of the respective denominations correspondingly arranged below the respective storage units of the respective denominations. Store in the storage section. On the other hand, the coins stored in the storing units of each denomination are dispensed outside the machine in accordance with the dispensed amount at the time of dispensing processing. Here, in the coin depositing and dispensing machine, when the inserted coin is discriminated and counted by the discriminating unit, the discriminated and counted coin will be stored in the storing unit for the denomination of the coin. The total number of stored coins and the number of coins already temporarily stored in the coin denomination storage unit in this deposit processing is the maximum number of coins that can be stored in the coin denomination storage unit. When the number of coins has been reached, the coins are temporarily stored as overflow coins in a collective storage unit provided separately from the storage units for the respective denominations without being stored in the storage unit for the denominations of the coins. It has become. Also, the overflow coins temporarily stored in the collective storage unit in this manner are:
When an approval operation for approving the deposit amount is input, the money is stored in a collective storage unit provided separately from the storage unit for each denomination.

[0003]

When the number of coins stored in the storage unit for dispensing is insufficient, a replenishment process for storing coins in the storage unit is performed in the same manner as the depositing process. However, in this replenishment process, a process of calculating the insufficient number of coins from the determination result or the like and preparing and replenishing the coins of the insufficient number of coins is not performed. Generally, in any case of any denomination, Also, replenishment is performed in units of a predetermined number of sheets (for example, a unit of 50 sheets, which is a unit for forming a bar). For this reason, coins of a denomination whose number of deficits is less than the predetermined number of units, the surplus coins are temporarily stored in the collective storage unit like the above-mentioned overflow coins, and finally stored in the collective storage unit. Will be. However, storing coins for replenishment processing in the collective storage unit is obviously useless from the viewpoint of fund management, and further reduces the possible storage capacity of the collective storage unit. was there. For this reason, a mechanism for exclusively returning the overflow coins has been considered, but a new problem arises in that the cost is greatly increased. Therefore, an object of the present invention is to provide a coin depositing and dispensing machine capable of returning overflow coins during replenishment processing without a significant increase in cost.

And a RAM (temporary storage number storage means, storage number storage means) 203 for storing a variable value such as a temporary storage number and a storage number of denominations of stored coins stored in denomination storage sections 22a to 22f. Have been.

Next, control contents will be described. The denomination storage units 76 a to 76 a are determined by the determination unit 60 or the sensor 73.
The number of coins of each denomination stored in 6f is counted, and the withdrawal counting sensor 111 stores the coins in the storage sections 22a to 22f.
Since the number of coins of each denomination fed from 22f is also counted, the control unit 200 sets the denomination storage unit 7
Except during the transfer of coins from 6a to 76f to the storage units 22a to 22f, each denomination storage unit 22a to 22f
Number of money stored in each denomination and storage unit 7 for each denomination
The number of temporarily stored denominations temporarily stored in 6a to 76f is always known.

When the selection of the deposit processing mode is input from the “payment processing mode” operation section 17, the CPU 201
The shutter motor 43a is driven to open the slot shutter 14. Then, when a coin is inserted into the insertion slot 13 and the execution of the payment processing is input from the operation unit 17, the CP
U201 drives the shutter motor 43a to close the insertion port shutter 14, and when the coins remain in any of the rotating disk 49, the coin discriminating passage 51, and the coin sorting passage 54 after the closing, the feeding and transporting drive unit. 59
a is maintained in the driving state. As a result, coins are fed out from the rotating disk 49, transported one by one in the coin discrimination passage 51, and the discrimination unit 60 discriminates the authenticity.

Then, the CPU 201 counts coins determined to be true by the discriminating section 60 by denomination, stores the counted value in the RAM 203, and furthermore, the coin branching section so as not to be excluded by the rejection slot 18. Pass through 61.
On the other hand, coins determined to be fake by the discriminating unit 60 are eliminated by the coin removing unit 18 by the coin branching unit 61.

Here, in the deposit processing mode, the CPU 201 monitors the number of denominations to be temporarily stored in the denomination storage units 76a to 76f in the current deposit processing from the count value stored in the RAM 203. The number of coin types already stored in the storage units 22a to 22f stored in the RAM 203 is added to the number of coin types temporarily stored in the denomination storage units 76a to 76f in the deposit processing this time. The number is also monitored.

By comparing with the reference values of the denominations stored in the ROM 202, the number of sheets temporarily stored in the denomination storage units 76a to 76f in the current deposit processing reaches the maximum number of sheets that can be temporarily stored. When there is a seed, the coins after reaching the maximum number of coins that can be temporarily stored are temporarily stored in the storage unit 76A by the coin branching unit 62.
Further, by comparing each of the denomination reference values stored in the ROM 202 with the denomination reference value, the number of sheets to be temporarily stored in the denomination storage units 76a to 76f in the current deposit processing is already stored in the storage unit 2.
If the number of coins stored in 2a to 22f added to the denomination reaches the maximum number of coins that can be stored from the empty state in the storage units 22a to 22f, the denomination can also be stored. After reaching the maximum number of coins, the coin branch unit 6
In step 2, the storage part 76A is temporarily stored. Coins other than these are passed through the coin branching unit 62 and temporarily stored in the denomination storage units 76a to 76f.

Then, all the coins deposited in the deposit processing this time are the reject port 18, the collective storage section 76A, the denomination storage section 7.
When the sensor detects that the data has been sent to any of 6a to 76f, the CPU 201 causes the display unit 16 to display the count value counted in the current deposit processing. When the operator confirms this display and performs an operation input of payment confirmation on the operation unit 17, C
The PU 201 drives the swing cam motor 87a to incline the collective storage unit 76A and the belt conveyor 74 of the denomination storage units 76a to 76f downward toward the rear, and
A state in which the rear gate member 80 is opened rearward,
All belt conveyors 7 by conveyor drive motor 74a
4 is operated so as to move the coin storing it backward. As a result, the coins stored in the collective storage section 76A are stored in the safe 23, and the denomination storage section 7
The coins that have been stored in the denominations 6a to 76f are stored in the denomination storage units 22a to 22f according to the denomination.

On the other hand, when the operator performs an operation input for canceling the deposit on the operation unit 17 with respect to the display on the display unit 16, the CPU
Reference numeral 201 denotes the sensor 20a that the tray 19
When it is confirmed that the coin is loaded at a position where the coin can be received, the swing cam motor 87a is driven in the opposite direction to the above, and the collective storage section 76A and the denomination storage sections 76a to 76f are operated.
The belt conveyor 74 is tilted downward in the forward direction, and the gate member 79 in the forward direction is opened in the forward direction, and coins storing all the belt conveyors 74 by the conveyor drive motor 74a are removed. Operate to move forward. Thereby, the coins stored in the batch storage unit 76A and the denomination storage units 76a to 76f are
All are discharged through the coin chute 113 to the tray 19, that is, outside the machine.

When the selection of the dispensing processing mode is input together with the number of coins of the denomination to be dispensed from the "dispensing processing mode" operation section 17, the CPU 201 causes the dispensing dispensing motor 1 to operate.
04a is driven to drive the reverse rotation roller 104 and the dispensing roller 107, and among the driving motors 109 of the storage sections 22a to 22f, those of the denomination type to be dispensed are driven to drive the belt conveyor 101, After the coins are separated one by one by the reverse rotation roller 104, the coins are fed to the coin chute 113 by the payment roller 107 while being counted by the timing sensor 110 and the payment counting sensor 111. In this way, the set number of coins of the denomination are discharged through the coin chute 113 to the tray 19, that is, to the outside.

[Recovery Processing Mode] In the state where the safe setting section 24 is pulled out, horizontally turned, abutted against the front side of the machine body 11 and locked, the selection of the recovery processing mode is input from the operation section 17. Then, the CPU 201 drives the dispensing delivery motor 104a to drive the reverse rotation roller 104 and the dispensing roller 107, and stores the storage units 22a to 22a.
The 22m drive motor 109 drives the denomination that is to be collected, drives the belt conveyor 101 of the denomination, and separates the coins one by one by the reverse rotation roller 104. Gold counting sensor 11
The coins are fed by the dispensing roller 107 while counting at 1. Then, the fed coin is transferred to the safe 2 via the collection chute 116 which is swung by being fixed to the safe setting section 24.
Collected in 3.

When a selection of the replenishment processing mode is input from the “replenishment processing mode” operation unit 17, the CPU 201
As shown in the flowchart of FIG. 26, as the insertion processing accompanying the start, the shutter motor 43a is driven to open the insertion port shutter 14, and coins are inserted into the insertion port 13 to execute the replenishment processing from the operation unit 17. When input, the shutter motor 43a is driven to close the inlet shutter 14 (step S1). And CP
U201 indicates that the coin is a rotating disc 49, a coin discriminating passage 51,
Then, it is determined whether or not the coin remains in any one of the coin sorting passages 54 (step S2). In the remaining state, the feeding / conveying drive unit 59a is driven, and coins are fed from the rotary disk 49. The sheets are conveyed one by one, and the authenticity is determined by the determination unit 60 (step S3).

The coins determined to be true by the determination section 60 are counted for each denomination, and the counted value is stored in the RAM 203 (step S4). Here, the count values of the denominations stored in the RAM 203 are stored in the denomination storage units 76a to 76f in the current replenishment process.
Is the number of denominations to be temporarily stored. CPU201
In the replenishment processing mode, all coins determined as true coins are temporarily stored in the denomination storage units 76a to 76f irrespective of the number of coins that can be stored in the denomination storage units 22a to 22f (step S5). Then, the process returns to step S2. Therefore, coins are not temporarily stored in the collective storage section 76A. On the other hand, the CPU 201 causes the coin branching unit 61 to remove the coin determined to be false by the determination unit 60 in step S3 into the removal port 18 (step S6), and returns to step S2.

If it is determined in step S2 that any coin remains in any of the rotating disk 49, the coin discriminating passage 51, and the coin sorting passage 54, the process proceeds to step S3.
Steps S5, S3, and S6 are repeated until no more coins remain. On the other hand, if it is determined in step S2 that no coin remains, the display unit 16 displays a message prompting an operation input as to whether to end the replenishment processing mode, and determines whether to end the replenishment processing mode. (Step S7). If it is determined that the replenishment processing mode is not to be ended from the operation input, the CPU 201 proceeds to step S1
Returning to step, additional coins are inserted.

On the other hand, if it is determined in step S7 that the replenishment processing mode is to be ended from the operation input, the CPU 201
Are denomination storage units 76a-
The number of temporarily stored denominations temporarily stored in 76f and RA
The number of denominations stored in the denomination storage units 22a to 22f stored in M203 is added to each denomination, and the denomination storage stored in the ROM 202 is calculated from the added value for each denomination. The overflow number X for each denomination is obtained by subtracting the maximum number of sheets that can be stored from the empty state of the denominations of the units 22a to 22f for each denomination (step S8).

That is, in step S8, the denomination storage by denomination is performed based on the added value of the number of 1-yen coins temporarily stored in the denomination storage unit 76a and the number of 1-yen coins stored in the denomination storage unit 22a. The overflow number X for 1-yen coins is obtained by subtracting the maximum number of 1-yen coins that can be stored from the empty state in the section 22a, and the number of 50-yen coins temporarily stored in the denomination storage section 76b and the denomination storage section 22b The number of overflows X for 50-yen coins obtained by subtracting the maximum number of 50-yen coins that can be stored from the empty state in the denomination storing section 22b from the addition value with the number of 50-yen coins stored in From the sum of the number of 5-yen coins temporarily stored in the storage section 76c and the number of 5-yen coins stored in the denomination storage section 22c, the empty state of the 5-yen coin in the denomination storage section 22c 5 which is obtained by subtracting the stored maximum possible number of al
The number of overflows X for yen coins is obtained, and the denomination storage is performed based on the sum of the number of 100-yen coins temporarily stored in the denomination storage unit 76d and the number of 100-yen coins stored in the denomination storage unit 22d. The number of overflows X for 100-yen coins obtained by subtracting the maximum number of 100-yen coins that can be stored from the empty state in the section 22d is obtained, and the denomination-specific storage section 76e
Number of 10-yen coins temporarily stored in the coin storage unit 22
e from the value added to the number of 10-yen coins stored in
The number of overflows X for 10-yen coins obtained by subtracting the maximum number of 10-yen coins that can be stored from the empty state in the denomination-specific storage unit 22e is obtained, and the number of 500-yen coins temporarily stored in the denomination-specific storage unit 76f and the denomination The number of overflows X for 500-yen coins is obtained by subtracting the maximum number of 500-yen coins that can be stored from the empty state in the denomination-type storage unit 22f from the added value with the number of 500-yen coins stored in the storage unit 22f. .

Next, the CPU 201 determines whether or not there is an overflow number X, that is, whether or not X is greater than 0 for all denominations (step S9), and X> 0.
If there is a denomination, it is determined by the sensor 20a whether or not the tray 19 is set at the discharge port 20 (step S10), and the process stands by until the tray 19 is set. When it is confirmed in step S10 that the tray 19 has been set in the discharge port 20, the CPU 201 drives the dispensing and feeding motor 104a to drive the reverse rotation roller 104 and the dispensing roller 107, and also stores the storage sections 22a to 22a.
After driving all the denominations having the overflow number X among the 2f drive motors 109 to drive the belt conveyor 101 of the denominations and separating the coins one by one by the reverse rotation roller 104, the timing sensor 110 And the number of overflows X while counting by the withdrawal counting sensor 111
Until is counted, coins are fed to the coin chute 113 by the dispensing roller 107. In this way, all the coins of the overflow number X are stored in the denomination storing sections 22a to 22a.
From the corresponding one of f, the coin is fed out to the tray 19, that is, the outside via the coin chute 113 (step S11).

That is, in steps S9 to S11, if the number of overflows X for 1-yen coins is X> 0, the 1-yen coins from the denomination storing section 22a are placed in the receiving tray 19 by X.
When the number of overflows X for 50 yen coins is X> 0, X pieces of 50 yen coins are fed out from the denomination storing section 22b to the tray 19, and the number of overflows X for 5 yen coins is X> 0. In the case of X, five X yen coins are fed out from the denomination storage unit 22c to the tray 19, and if the number of overflows X for 100 yen coins is X> 0, 100 yen coins are received from the denomination storage unit 22d. When the number of overflows X for 10-yen coins is X> 0, 10-yen coins are received from the denomination storing section 22e in the receiving tray 1.
9 is fed out, and if the number of overflows X for a 500-yen coin is X> 0, 5
X coins are fed out to the saucer 19. Of course, the denomination of X ≦ 0 is not paid out. At this time, coins of the denomination with the number of overflows X>X> 0 are simultaneously fed, but the denomination with the number of overflows X>X> 0 may be fed for each denomination. That is, an overflow coin of one denomination is paid out, a tray is taken out, and after the tray is reset, overflow coins of another denomination are paid out. By repeating this, coins of a denomination of which the number of overflows X is X> 0 may be paid out.

After the execution of step S11 and when it is determined in step S9 that the number of overflows X is equal to or less than 0, the CPU 201 drives the swing cam motor 87a to execute the collective storing section 76A and the denomination storing sections 76a to 76a.
f, the belt conveyor 74 is tilted downward in the rearward direction, and the gate member 80 in the rearward direction is opened rearward, and coins storing all the belt conveyors 74 by the conveyor drive motor 74a Is moved backward (step S12). As a result, all the coins that have been sorted and stored in the denomination storage units 76a to 76f are stored in the denomination storage units 22a to 22f.
It is stored in denomination in f.

After execution of step S12, the RAM 203 stores the number of temporarily stored denominations in the denomination storage units 76a to 76f stored in the RAM 203 and the number of overflows calculated for each denomination. The stored data of the number of stored denominations stored in the denomination storing units 22a to 22f is updated (step S13).

As described above, according to the coin depositing and dispensing machine of this embodiment, when an operation input in the replenishment processing mode is performed on the operation unit 17, the coin is dispensed from the insertion slot 13 and the discrimination unit 60 determines whether the input is correct. The coin determined to be a coin is stored in the denomination storing unit 22.
Regardless of the number of sheets that can be stored in a to 22f, all the denomination storage units 76a to 76f are temporarily stored by denomination. Then, the CPU 201 stores the number of coins temporarily stored in the denomination storage units 76 a to 76 f stored in the RAM 203 and the denomination storage units 22 a to 22 f stored in the RAM 203. From the number of stored coins by denomination and the maximum number of denominations that can be stored in the denomination storage units 22a to 22f from the empty state stored in the ROM 202, the denomination storage units 76a to 76f are temporarily stored. Deposited coins are stored as denomination storage units 22a-2
The overflow number X that overflows when stored in 2f is determined for each denomination. And the CPU 201
The coins of the number of overflows X of the denominated denominations are previously sent out from the corresponding denomination storage units 22a to 22f to the outside and returned, and then the denomination storage unit 76a
The coins temporarily stored in the denominations of Nos. To 76f are all stored in the denomination storing units 22a to 22f by the denominations.

As described above, the overflow number X is returned to the outside from the denomination storing sections 22a to 22f in advance, and thereafter, all the replenished coins are stored in the denomination storing section 76a.
Since the refilling is performed by storing the coins in the denomination storing units 22a to 22f from. Therefore, it is possible to return the overflow coins at the time of the replenishment process without a significant increase in cost.

In the above description, in the replenishment processing mode, a case has been described as an example in which all true coins passing through the preceding coin branching section 61 are temporarily stored by denomination in the denomination storage sections 76a to 76f. In the replenishment processing mode, of the true coins that have passed through the coin branching section 61 in the preceding stage, for each denomination, the true coins up to the maximum number of coins that can be temporarily stored in the denomination storage units 76a to 76f are denominated. Regardless of the number of sheets that can be stored in the storage units 22a to 22f, all of them are temporarily stored in the denomination storage units 76a to 76f. When the surplus coins of the denomination reaching the number of coins are conveyed, the drive of the rotary disk 49 is stopped at the time when the surplus coins are discriminated, and the coin discrimination passage 5
1. All the coins on the coin sorting passage 54 and the coin sorting passage 55 are stored in the denomination storage units 76a to 76f, the number of overflows X is calculated here, and the denomination storage units 22a to 22f are stored.
The number of overflows is fed out from f and the denomination storage unit 7
The coins 6a to 76f are stored in the denomination storing units 22a to 22f. After the storage, the rotating disk 49 is driven to restart coin transport, and when all coins are stored in the denomination storage units 76a to 76f, it is preferable to perform control so as to perform the operations of step S7 and subsequent steps in FIG.

[0062]

As described in detail above, claim 1 of the present invention
According to the coin depositing and dispensing machine described above, when the operation input of the replenishment processing mode is performed by the mode setting unit, the first control unit stores the coin determined as a true coin by the determination unit in the denomination storage unit. Regardless of the possible number of sheets, the denomination storage unit is temporarily stored for each denomination. Then, the overflow number calculating means stores the temporarily stored number of coins of the coin type temporarily stored in the denomination storing unit by the first control means and the stored number of stored coins stored in the temporarily stored number storing means. The number of coins stored in the denomination storage unit by denomination and the maximum number of denominations that can be stored in the denomination storage unit from the empty state stored in the denomination storage unit in the denomination storage unit. Then, the number of overflows for each denomination is calculated. Then, the second control means sends out the coins of the number of overflows of the denomination determined by the overflow number identification means from the denomination storing section to the outside and returns them, and then temporarily stores the coins in the denomination storing section for the denominations. All the stored coins are stored in the denomination storing section by denomination. In this way, the number of overflows is returned from the denomination storage unit to the outside in advance,
After that, replenishment coins will be stored in the denomination storage unit from the denomination storage unit and replenished, so overflow coins will be stored in a separate lump storage unit or returned by a dedicated return mechanism. Eliminates the need. Therefore, it is possible to return the overflow coins at the time of the replenishment process without a significant increase in cost.

According to the coin depositing and dispensing machine of the second aspect of the present invention, the number of stored coins stored in the denomination storing section stored in the stored number of sheets storing unit is set to the third number.
The control means updates the temporary storage number of the denomination stored in the temporary storage number storage means and the overflow number of the denomination stored in the overflow number determination means. As described above, by updating the number of stored coins stored in the denomination storing unit by denomination, it is possible to always check the number of coins stored in the denomination storing unit.

According to the coin depositing and dispensing machine of the third aspect of the present invention, only when the detecting means detects the tray for receiving coins fed out of the denomination storing section to the outside, the fourth coin receiving and dispensing machine can be used.
The controller allows the coins of the number of overflows to be fed out of the denomination storing section by the second controller. As described above, only when the tray is detected, the overflow coins are reliably fed onto the tray by allowing the number of coins to overflow from the denomination storing section.

According to the coin depositing and dispensing machine of the fourth aspect of the present invention, the temporary storage number of the denomination stored in the temporary storage number storage means and the maximum number of denominations stored in the maximum storage capacity storage means And the fifth control means interrupts the transfer of coins to the denomination storage unit when the temporary storage unit of any denomination matches or exceeds the maximum number of denominations,
At the time of the interruption, the overflow number determining means determines the number of overflows of the denomination, the second discriminating means feeds out the coins of the overflow number of the denomination, and stores the coins from the denomination storing unit to the denomination storing unit. After that, the transport of coins to the denomination storage unit is restarted. In this way, the transport of coins to the denomination storage unit is interrupted, the overflow number is indexed, overflow coins are fed out, and the denomination storage unit is stored in the denomination storage unit. By resuming the transport of coins to the temporary storage unit, the replenishment operation can be performed even for the number of coins exceeding the number stored in the temporary storage unit.
