Description

  The present invention relates to a deposit / payment processing device for banknotes installed in a store of a game store such as a pachinko store, and in particular, a sales amount that can change the storage location of banknotes according to use according to the operation mode of the game store. The present invention relates to a deposit processing apparatus.

The applicant of the present application disclosed in a previous application (see Patent Document 1) a sales deposit processing apparatus having a function suitable for cash management in a game store such as a pachinko parlor.
In the sales receipt processing apparatus, a storage destination for each usage is fixed. That is, the gross profit is stored in the banknote cassette, the special prize exchange price is stored in the rose storage section, and the exchange reserve (in-store reserve) is stored in the bundle storage section.
The above configuration was based on the prediction that the gross profit generated at an amusement store would be entrusted to a security company to be deposited into the bank. Because it was necessary to make it impossible to touch the cash directly.

However, it turns out that there are some amusement stores that deposit gross profits into banks under their own control without entrusting to a security company, and if so, it is not necessary to store gross profits in banknote cassettes. It disappears (for example, you may store in a rose storage part).
In addition, in the above-mentioned conventional example, the special prize exchange fee is sent to the rose storage department, but this is often close to the amusement store and the special prize purchase store, and the rose remains (the case where it is locked). This is based on the prediction that it will be safe to transport.
However, in some cases, there are cases where there is a special gift purchase store far away from the amusement store, and it has become necessary to carry the special gift exchange price in a locked case. Alternatively, if it is stored in a sealed case from the beginning, it is possible to have the gift purchaser come directly to collect cash. In addition, if you hand over the special prize exchange price with a bundling, you can easily check the amount of money and work easily.

  The present invention has been made in view of the operational circumstances at the amusement stores as described above, and by making it possible to variably set storage destinations according to usage according to the operational form at each amusement store, It is an object to provide a sales receipt processing apparatus that enables certain operations.

  The present invention relates to a banknote sales deposit processing apparatus installed in a store of a game store such as a pachinko store, the above-mentioned object of the present invention is a sales deposit processing apparatus installed in a store of a game store, The apparatus is located on the downstream side of the banknote receiving unit that collectively receives banknotes to be processed, the feeding and feeding unit that feeds and transports the banknotes received in the banknote receiving unit one by one, A denomination identifying unit for identifying the denomination of the banknotes conveyed by the feeding and conveying unit, a monetary amount information input unit capable of inputting and storing the amount-specific money information and the storage destination for each purpose, and the denomination identifying unit A sorting unit that is located on the downstream side and sorts the banknotes to be transported according to their use, and the storage destination is a bundle storage unit that stores the bundled banknotes, and can store / retrieve rose banknotes Rose bill storage part and rose bills in it In addition, the banknotes are taken out and transported by three types of storage units including banknote cassettes that are performed for each cassette, and the banknotes received by the banknote receiving unit are input by the money amount information input unit. This is achieved by a sales receipt processing apparatus characterized by further comprising a control unit that performs sorting based on the amount-specific usage amount information and stores it in each storage destination assigned in advance.

  The object of the present invention is further provided with an ID recognizing unit for discriminating the operator's attribute from the input operator's ID, and according to the operator's attribute, taking out bills from the storage units. This is achieved more effectively by the sales receipt processing apparatus in which whether or not is determined.

  According to the sales deposit processing apparatus according to the present invention, the storage location of banknotes according to use can be changed according to the attributes of the operator, so it can be set according to the characteristics of the amusement store to be introduced, and flexible Operation becomes possible.

A sales deposit processing apparatus according to the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 shows the appearance of a sales deposit processing apparatus of the present invention. In FIG. 1, 1 is a banknote receiving unit, 2 is an amount information input unit, and 21 is a card reader as an ID recognition unit.
FIG. 2 is a cross-sectional view showing the inside of the sales deposit processing apparatus. In the figure, 1 is a banknote receiving unit, 2 is an amount information input unit (this amount information input unit calls not only a key input mode but also an external communication input, a value stored in advance that is not input each time. 3 is a feeding and conveying unit, 4 is a denomination identifying unit, 5 is a sorting unit, 6 is a binding unit, and 7 is a bundle for storing bundled banknotes bound by the binding unit 6. A storage unit, 8 is a rose storage unit for storing banknotes in a rose state, 9 is a banknote cassette in which banknotes are stored in a rose state, and the banknotes are taken out and transported together with the cassettes. Reference numeral 10 denotes a temporary storage unit connected to the banknote cassette 9. 21 is a card reader as an ID recognition unit.

  FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing a control system of the sales deposit processing apparatus. The control unit 11 controls the denomination information input unit 2, the denomination identification unit 4, the sorting unit 5, the binding unit 6 and the card reader 21 according to a predetermined control program. The control unit 11 includes a CPU 111 that performs arithmetic control, a ROM 112 that stores the control program, and a RAM 113 that is a working memory. Further, a storage unit 12 is connected to the control unit 11 for storing data such as the denomination and number of bills taken and correspondence between usage and storage unit.

表１は、売上金の使途と、それが収納される収納部との対応を一覧にしたものである。
「標準」パターンでは、両替準備金は束収納部に、特殊景品交換代金はバラ収納部に、粗利益は紙幣カセットに収納されるように設定されている。これは粗利益について警備会社への委託を行っている遊技場の場合である。
また、下段は前記各収納部から紙幣を取り出す権限を有する者を示しており、ＩＤ認識部で認識された操作者の属性がこの条件に合致しなければ、紙幣を取り出すことができないようになっている。 With the above configuration, the sales deposit processing apparatus according to the present invention will be specifically described with reference to Table 1. Since the basic operation of the sales receipt processing apparatus is as described in Patent Document 1, description of common parts is omitted.

Table 1 lists the correspondence between the usage of the sales proceeds and the storage units in which the sales are stored.
In the “standard” pattern, the exchange reserve is set in the bundle storage unit, the special prize exchange fee is stored in the rose storage unit, and the gross profit is stored in the banknote cassette. This is the case for amusement arcades that outsource gross profits to security companies.
In addition, the lower row shows a person who has the authority to take out banknotes from the respective storage units. If the operator's attribute recognized by the ID recognition unit does not match this condition, the banknotes cannot be taken out. ing.

  The money exchange reserve is band-sealed and stored in the bundle storage unit, but this removal is permitted to all store clerks including general store clerk. This is because banknotes are bundled every predetermined number (for example, in units of 100) and are easy to handle, and it is considered that there is little risk of mistakes even by an inexperienced general store clerk. In addition, the bill cassette storing the gross profit can be taken out only by a staff member of a security company with a consignment contract. In this way, the responsibility sharing can be clarified.

  The special gift exchange fee is stored in the rose storage part, but it is expensive and can be touched directly with the banknotes, so it can be set up so that only highly responsible clerks can take it out. It is considered desirable. These take-out permission settings are also set when setting storage destinations according to usage. For example, when sales are deposited in a “standard” pattern, the take-out operator inserts the ID card into the card reader. Then, the control unit 11 determines whether or not the banknotes can be taken out from each storage unit with reference to the permission setting using the input attribute as a clue.

  Next, the case of “Modification 1” in the setting pattern will be described. This is not the case where the gross profit is entrusted to a security company and carried to a financial institution as in the “standard” pattern described above, but the amusement shop clerk (mainly a clerk of the senior class or higher) carries it to the financial institution. It is an example. Then, it becomes unnecessary to put the gross profit in the banknote cassette, and for example, it becomes possible to assign a special prize exchange fee to the banknote cassette. In this case, if it is set so that the special prize purchaser can take out the banknote cassette directly, the prize purchaser can take out the banknote by inputting his / her ID. On the other hand, with respect to the exchange reserve, a storage destination is allocated to the bundle storage unit in order to take advantage of the characteristic that the banding process is performed and it is easy to handle. This removal is permitted to all store clerk including general store clerk for the same reason as described above. As a result, the gross profit is inevitably stored in the rose storage that can be touched by hands, but the amount is large and the banknotes can be touched directly. It is desirable to set so that only the store clerk can take out.

  Next, the case of “Modification 2” in the setting pattern will be described. This is an example where the gross profit is not entrusted to a security company and transported to a financial institution as in the “standard” pattern, but is transported to a financial institution by a store clerk of an amusement store, particularly a general store clerk. In this case, in order to prevent mistakes, it is necessary to put the banknote in a banknote cassette in which the banknote cannot be directly touched. In addition, with regard to the special prize exchange price, a storage destination is assigned to the bundle storage unit in order to take advantage of the characteristics such as the banding process for each denomination and the easy confirmation of the number of sheets. If the takeout is set so that the special prize purchaser can directly take out, the prize purchaser can take out the banknote from the bundle storage unit by inputting his / her ID.

In addition, if the gift purchaser does not come to pick up directly, it may be set so that the store clerk can pick it up, but since the amount is large and the banknote can be touched directly, more than the responsible chief class or higher It is desirable to set so that only the store clerk can take out. As a result, the exchange reserve is inevitably stored in the rose storage section that can be touched by hand, but since the banknote can be touched directly, only the clerk of the responsible senior class or higher is responsible. It may be desirable to set it so that it can be removed.
It should be noted that the storage destinations for each usage may be set each time, or may be selected, recalled and executed in advance by being stored in advance.
The preferred embodiments of the sales deposit processing apparatus according to the present invention have been described above, but the present invention is not limited to these, and various modifications are possible.

It is a figure which shows the external appearance of the sales deposit processing apparatus which concerns on this invention. It is a cross section which shows the inside of the sales deposit processing apparatus which concerns on this invention. It is a block diagram which shows the control system of the sales deposit processing apparatus which concerns on this invention.
