The amount of 1,000-yen bills prepared for these purposes is, for example, 2700. The majority of this money is spent for gaming by players, and will be left in the Daima ball / machine medals machine at the end of business hours.
[0010]
If the above-mentioned conventional device is used, these approximately 2,700 1,000-yen bills are also collected and collected in a bill cassette, and the security guard brings approximately the same number of 2,700-yen bills for the next day. In other words, for a security company that has a consignment relationship with the store, it becomes extremely complicated.
[0011]
In such a case, if a change store can be prepared at the game store, there is no need to bring it from a security company, which is convenient for crime prevention.
[0012]

Here, the communication connection unit 13 in the figure is for online connection with a hall computer installed in a game arcade, but is not essential.
[0019]
FIG. 4 is a diagram showing an online connection state between a currency exchange machine and other devices installed in a game arcade and a hall computer. In this figure, the sales and deposit processing apparatus of the present invention is shown as being connected online to a hall computer, but this is merely an example, and online connection is not essential.
[0020]
FIG. 5 exemplifies the number of components for each denomination of banknotes processed in a store.
[0021]
FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing the flow of the sales payment processing by the sales payment processing apparatus according to the present invention.
[0022]
The in-store banknote total amount in FIG. 5 is, specifically, (1) the amount of the banknote present in the currency exchange machine, (2) the amount of the banknote present in the gaming card vending machine, and (3) the inter-ball lending machine / This is the sum of the amounts of the bills present in the stand-to-box medal lending machine.
[0023]
Each of these currency exchange machines, gaming card vending machines, daima ball lending machines / daily medal lending machines are connected to the hall computer for communication, and the respective money information is collected by the hall computer. The denomination can be obtained from the hall computer.
[0024]
The in-store reserve is reserved for business on the next day, and is specifically loaded into a currency exchange machine and a game card vending machine, and is composed of only a 1,000-yen bill.
[0025]
The special prize exchange price is a price for purchasing a special prize from a special prize purchaser, and is prepared in three denominations of a 10,000 yen bill, a 5,000 yen bill, and a 1,000 yen bill.
[0026]
The special prize is provided to the player according to the number of balls and medals obtained by the player in the game. The provided player goes to a special prize purchaser and has the special prize purchased for cash.
[0027]
The gross profit is the remainder obtained by subtracting the in-store reserve and the special prize exchange price from the in-store banknote total amount.
[0028]
Hereinafter, taking the case where the total amount of banknotes present in the store at the end of the business in the game store is as shown in FIG. 5 as an example, the deposit processing by the sales deposit processing apparatus according to the present invention is shown in the flowchart of FIG. It will be described based on.
[0029]
First, the amount information input unit 2 inputs 2700 1,000 yen bills as in-store reserves and 975 thousand yen bills / 5,000 yen bills 250 / 1,000 yen bills 300 as special premium exchange charges ( Step S1).
[0030]
Here, if the sales and payment processing device is connected online to the hall computer as shown in FIG. 4, the information may be obtained directly from the hall computer instead of the above input.
[0031]
Next, the banknotes collected from the currency exchange machine, the gaming card vending machine, the tama ball lending machine / the medal coin lending machine are collectively fed into the bill receiving unit (step S2). After the above operation is completed, the start button is pressed (step S3). The processing is started in response to the pressing of the start button, and the banknotes are sequentially fed out from the lowest layer, passed through the denomination discriminating section, and the denomination is discriminated, and sorting by use is performed (step S4).
If the result of the denomination determination is that the bill is a thousand-yen bill, the bill is sent to the binding unit 6 and the count value is stored in the storage unit 12 (step S5). When the number of sheets reaches 100 in this way, the feeding conveyance is stopped, the sheets are bundled and sent to the bundle storage section 7, and the number of thousand-yen bills in the bundled section is reset (step S6). As described above, the binding process is performed on the 1,000-yen bill until 27 bundles are accumulated in the bundle storage unit 7.
[0032]
On the other hand, if the result of the denomination determination is a value other than the 1,000-yen bill (5,000-yen bill or ten-yen bill), the denomination is sent to the rose storage unit 8, and the denomination and the count value are stored (step S7).
[0033]
The 1,000-yen bills after the bundle of 1,000-yen bills in the bundle storage section 7 has become 27 bundles are sent to the rose storage section 8, where the denomination and the count value are stored (step S8).
[0034]
In this way, the number of coins for each denomination in the rose storage unit 8 is equal to the number of the special prize exchange price entered first (10,000-yen bill = 975, 5,000-yen bill = 250, 1,000-yen bill = When the number of bills reaches 300, each bill thereafter is sent to the bill cassette 9 (or the temporary holding unit 10 is also possible), and the denomination and the count value are stored (step S9). This process is repeated until the bill receiving unit 1 runs out of bills. The amount remaining in the banknote cassette 9 becomes the gross profit in the business on that day.
[0035]
Since the order of the denominations of the bills to be inserted into the bill receiving unit 1 is expected to be random, the bills do not always advance in the order of the in-store reserve, the special premium exchange price, and the gross profit.
[0036]
Since the banknote cassette 9 is operated by a security guard of an external security company that has a consignment relationship with the store, in order to clarify the division of responsibility, the banknote cassette 9 is not sent to the banknote cassette 9 immediately but above the banknote cassette 9. The gross profit obtained from the hall computer (the numerical value at the bottom of the table in FIG. 5) and the processing amount by the device (meaning the amount in the temporary storing unit, (Stored in the storage unit 12), and after confirming the match, the operation may be performed in which the temporary storage unit 10 is moved to the bill cassette 9.
[0037]
In this way, it is possible to sort the banknotes left in the store and the gross profit, which is the surplus, in one processing for all the banknotes in the game store.
[0038]
【The invention's effect】
All bills present in the gaming store are collectively received by the bill accepting unit, and the banknotes are sorted for each purpose only by inputting the in-store reserve and the special premium exchange price.
[0039]
Here, the purpose of use includes the type of management responsibility.
[0040]
That is, the sorting according to the management responsibility can be completed in one process, and as a result, the surplus (gross profit) can be taken back by the security guard and the necessary amount can be left in the store. Therefore, it is very convenient for the store side.
[0041]
The store that stores the necessary banknotes on the next day at the store (operating money storage) can be handled by the store staff, and the banknote cassette that stores gross profits is guarded by a security company that has a consignment relationship with the store. Only members can handle it.
[0042]
By adopting such a function, the security company does not need to prepare / bring a change reserve for the store, and has the effect of being freed from complexity.
