(Abbreviated as) in FIG. 2 regardless of the amount of bills.
20-a, 21-a, and therefore, the interval of the accumulation space 19 between the support portion 20 and the lower surface of the delivery belt 29 at this fixed position, and the pressing portion 21 and the upper surface of the transfer belt 34. It is assumed that a smaller amount of banknotes will be dispensed and stored than the interval between.

A pair of transmissive sensors Sa, Sa are provided above and below the pulley 32 and the guide roller 59a to detect the insertion of the deposited paper currency, lower the guide roller 59a, and guide the tip of the deposited paper currency. Roller 5
9a and the transfer belt 34, and then the fed-in banknotes are fed toward the regulation guide 35 by the low-speed normal rotation of the transfer belt 34 after the transfer. During the feeding of the deposited banknotes, the pressing portion 21 is at a fixed position indicated by reference numeral 21-a and guides the upper surface of the deposited banknotes.

When the tip of the deposited banknote comes into contact with the regulation guide portion 35, the pair of transmission sensors Sb, Sb detect the transmission state of the deposited banknote as it passes, and the transfer belt 34 stops. Next, the pressing portion 21 descends to a position where it presses the upper surface of the deposited banknotes. Immediately thereafter, the feeding belt 34 rotates forward at a high speed, and one banknote is separated and fed.

When the last bill is fed, the reflection sensor Sc detects that there is no bill, and stops the feeding belt 34. In addition, due to the loss of the bills,
4 (the position of which is indicated by reference numeral 2 in FIG. 2).
1-c) rises and stops at the fixed position indicated by reference numeral 21-a in FIG.

On the other hand, the support portion 20 moves up and down integrally with the pressing portion 21, and moves to a position (reference numeral 21) indicated by reference numeral 20-a in FIG.
The position indicated by reference numeral 20-b (corresponding to reference numeral 21-b) is the highest position, and the position indicated by reference numeral 20-c (corresponding to reference numeral 21-c) is the lowest position. .

At the time of depositing, the shutter 58 of the dispensing port 2 is opened by detecting the bill insertion by the sensors Sa and Sa, while the support portion 20 presses the deposited bills from the position indicated by reference numeral 20-a in FIG. When the bills are exhausted, they move downward as a result of the lowering of the pressing portion 21 due to the movement of the push-in portion 21, and also decrease as the number of deposited banknotes decreases, and move to the position indicated by reference numeral 20-c in FIG. In the meantime, when the deposit transfer bill is identified as the deposit reject bill by the deposit identification unit 17, the bill is placed on the support unit 20.

The delivery belt 29 and the roller 30 are interlocked with the feeding belt 34. When the feeding belt 34 rotates forward at a high speed, the delivery belt 29 and the roller 30 rotate at a high speed in a direction for feeding the bills into the stacking space 19, At this time, the regulating piece 19a on the front side (right side in FIG. 2) of the stacking space 19 is placed in a vertical position by the control of a solenoid (not shown) to prevent bills from jumping out of the stacking space 19.

Further, the last deposited bill is fed out and identified, and when a predetermined time has elapsed (the deposited reject bill is accumulated in the accumulation space 1).

Also stopped). At that time, the support portion 20 is at the lowest position (the position indicated by reference numeral 20-C in FIG. 2).

In this state, when the deposit recognition unit 17 detects the deposit reject bill and the transmission type sensors Sd, Sd detect the deposit reject bill, first, the support unit 20 is activated.
Rises, and pushes the deposited banknotes against the delivery belt 29.
Next, the regulating piece 19a moves to the retracted position (the position shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG. 2), and then the delivery belt 29 rotates at a low speed to deliver the deposit reject bill to the deposit outlet 2.

The trailing end of the deposit reject bill passes through the transmission type sensors Se, Se, and when the sensors Se, Se enter a transmission state, the delivery belt 29 stops. At this time, the leading end of the deposit reject bill is stopped at a position protruding similarly to the leading end of the stacked bill P in FIG.

When the operator pulls out the deposit reject bill from between the delivery belt 29 and the support section 20, the transmission sensor S
f and Sf are in a transmission state, and the support portion 20 is denoted by reference numeral 2 in FIG.
It descends to the fixed position shown by 0-a and stops. Further, the restricting piece 19a returns to the vertical posture in FIG.

When the deposit recognition section 17 completes the temporary hold of the deposited bill without detecting the rejected bill, the support section 20 moves from the position indicated by the reference numeral 20-c to the position indicated by the reference numeral 20-a in FIG. Ascends and stops, preparing for a deposit approval or deposit non-approval operation.

If the sensors Sd and Sd do not detect the rejected bill even though the deposit recognizing unit 17 detects the rejected bill, it is determined that the paper jam has occurred, the sensor Sd has failed, and the machine is down. Let it.

Next, the payment approval operation and the payment non-approval operation will be described.

When the operator performs the deposit approval operation, the shutter 58 of the dispensing port 2 is closed, the deposited regular bills temporarily stored are stored, and the bill dispensing unit 10 and the deposited bill storage and transfer unit 12 are moved. The deposit operation is completed in a state before the deposit approval operation, and the system is ready for the next deposit or withdrawal operation.

When the deposit non-approval operation is performed, the temporarily deposited regular bills that have been temporarily held are fed out and accumulated on the support portion 20 (the position indicated by reference numeral 20-a in FIG. 2) at a fixed position. At that time, the delivery belt 29 and the roller 30 are rotated forward at high speed.

When all of the deposited and returned banknotes have been accumulated on the support unit 20 (when a predetermined time has elapsed after the last bill has passed through the withdrawal identifying unit 18), when returning the temporarily deposited banknotes, the withdrawal identification is performed. The delivery belt 29 is stopped at the same time as the part 18 is identified), and at the same time, the payment accumulation banknote support portion 20 is raised, and the deposit return banknote is pressed against the delivery belt 29.

Next, the regulating piece 19a is retracted, and the delivery belt 2
9 rotates forward at a low speed and sends out a deposit return banknote (in some cases, there is only one, but almost all are stacked). When the trailing end of the deposit-return bill passes the sensors Se and Se, the delivery belt 29 stops. At this time, the leading end of the bill is at the same position as the leading end of the stacked bill P in FIG.

When the bill is withdrawn from the dispensing port 2, the sensors Sf and Sf enter a transparent state, and the support portion 20 descends and stops at a fixed position indicated by reference numeral 20-a in FIG. The restricting piece 19a is also converted to a vertical position by a solenoid (not shown), and the shutter 58 of the dispensing port 2 is closed to prepare for the next deposit or dispensing.

Next, the dispensing operation will be described.

At the time of dispensing, the support portion 20 is at a fixed position (position 20-a in FIG. 2), the regulating piece 19a is at a vertical position, and the shutter 58 of the dispensing port 2 is at a closed position.

In this state, the delivery belt 29 and the roller 3
The banknotes 0 are rotated forward at a high speed, and the dispensed bills are sent to the accumulation space 19 and accumulated on the support portion 20. The number of stacked bills is set to 50, and even if the set number of bills are stacked, a sufficient gap is guaranteed between the delivery belt 29 and the upper surface of the stacked bills.

The bills sent from the denomination stackers 9 ₁ , 9 ₂ are identified by the withdrawal identifying section 18 and then the bill dispensing section 10.
When a predetermined amount of time has passed after the regular bill of the amount of money to be dispensed (the denomination and the number or the amount of money) has passed through the dispensing identification unit 18, the delivery belt 29 and the roller 3
0 high-speed normal rotation stops.

Next, the regulating piece 19a moves to the retracted position,
The shutter 58 of the dispensing port 2 is opened, and then the dispensing bill is clamped between the delivery belt 29 and the supporting portion 20 by raising the support portion 20. Immediately thereafter, the delivery belt 29 rotates forward at a low speed, and the dispensed bill is delivered to the dispensing port 2. At this time, the trailing end of the dispensed bill passes through the sensors Se, Se, and is in a transparent state, the delivery belt 29 stops, and the leading end of the bill at that time is located at the same position as the leading end position of the stacked bill P in FIG. .

When the operator pulls out the bill to be dispensed, the sensor Sf,
Sf enters a transparent state, the solenoid (not shown) converts the restricting piece 19a to the vertical position, closes the shutter 58 of the dispensing port 2 and performs the operation of the reference numeral 20-
The dispensing operation is finished in the state where the descending stop is performed to the a position. Then, it is in a standby state for the next deposit or withdrawal.

When the pin 61 moves to the left in the drawing, the pin 65 is also moved to the right end of the long hole 67 by the urging force of the spring 68. It moves to the left in the figure while keeping the contact, and rotates the lever 63 counterclockwise in the figure around the shaft 62.

In FIG. 4 (C), the pressing force of the pressing portion 21 on the upper surface of the deposited banknotes acts as the main pressing force of the weight of the pressing portion 21 and the X lifter 46. Note that the position shown by the solid line of the lever 47 in FIG. 4C is the position when the pressing portion 21 descends on the retracting belt 34 and stops due to its own weight as described above. Therefore, when there is a deposited bill, the pressing portion 21 is placed on the bill by the action of its own weight and applies a pressing force to the transfer belt 34.

All the deposited bills are taken in,
In the case where the pressing portion 21 is in the state of reference numerals 20-C and 21-C in FIG. 2 and there is no deposit reject banknote (based on the detection of the deposit identification portion 17 and the sensors Sd and Sd), FIG.
The drive shaft 69 rotates counterclockwise from the state shown in FIG. 4C, returns to the position shown in FIG.

When a deposit reject banknote is present (by detection of the deposit identification unit 17 and the sensors Sd, Sd), the drive shaft 69 is moved from the state shown in FIG. rotates in the counterclockwise direction, leading to the state shown in FIG. 4 (B) via the state of FIG. 4 (a), the sensor S ₁ is transmitted, the sensor S ₂ is stopped becomes light.

At this time, the deposit reject bill is sandwiched between the delivery belt 29 and the support portion 20, and the support portion 20 is located at a position lowered by the amount of the deposit reject bill from the contact position with the delivery belt 29. I have.

In FIG. 4B, the lever 47 swings clockwise in the figure about the shaft 50 by an amount corresponding to the deposit reject bill (for example, the position shown by a dashed line in FIG. 4B), and is connected. The piece 66 is also pulled to the right in the figure, and the slot 67 is located at an intermediate position with respect to the pin 65 at a fixed position. In this state, the deposit reject bill is sent to the delivery belt 2
9 and the support portion 20, the bill is sent out, and the trailing end of the deposit reject bill passes through the sensors Se, Se, which detect the same, and the sending belt 29 stops to deposit the bill. The state continues until the rejected banknote stops (a state in which the tip of the deposited rejected banknote partially protrudes from the dispensing port 2).

When the operator pulls out the deposit reject bill from the dispensing port 2 and the sensors Sf and Sf change from the light-shielded state to the transparent state, the drive shaft 69 rotates clockwise in FIG. When the state of (A) is reached, the sensor S ₁
And S ₂ is the drive shaft 69 becomes transmissive state stops.
As a result, the support portion 20 and the pressing portion 21 are denoted by reference numeral 20 in FIG.
-A, 21-a.

The support portion 20 in the above embodiment is
At the time of dispensing, the dispensing bills are accumulated while being at the fixed position (position 20-a in FIG. 2), but the present invention is not limited to this.
20-B, and is lowered by a predetermined amount each time a dispensing bill is fed into the accumulation space 19, and at the end of accumulation of the dispensing bills, the support portion 20 is raised from that position and the delivery belt 29 is moved. And the dispensing bills may be held between them.
