Compared with the mass and the total recovered mass stored in the total recovered mass storage means 60, when the total stored mass reaches the total recovered mass, the display unit 17 has a function of displaying and notifying.

  Further, the control unit 51 has a function of continuing the deposit of the wrapping coin 20 even after the stored total mass reaches the recovered total mass by the operation of the continuation unit 57, and when the full detection unit 45 detects a full state, the display unit 17 It has a function to display and inform.

  Next, the operation of the wrapping coin deposit machine 11 will be described.

  First, the depositing process when the recovered total mass is not set will be described.

  When the operator designates a deposit process using the operation unit 15, the shutter 13 is opened and the receiving port 14 is opened. The wrapping coin 20 to be deposited by the operator is moved from the receiving port 14 to the wrapping coin receiving position below the receiving port 14 and placed on the receiving tray 21 waiting. At this time, as shown in FIG. 4 (a), a plurality of the wrapping coins 20 are placed in parallel in the front-rear direction in a posture in which the axis of the wrapping coins 20 is horizontal and is oriented in the left-right direction of the machine body 12. . The receiving tray 21 that has moved to the wrapping coin receiving position and is waiting is closed at the front side by the gate 27 and the presser part 28 has moved rearward so that the wrapping coin 20 can be received. The coin 20 is brought forward by the inclination of the bottom plate 25.

  When the operator instructs the start of the depositing process with the operation unit 15, the shutter 13 is closed, the presser part 28 of the receiving tray 21 is moved forward, and a plurality of wrapping coins are placed between the presser part 28 and the gate 27. As shown in FIG. 4B, each wrapping coin 20 is identified by the identifying means 31 while moving the receiving tray 21 rearward.

  In the identification, the diameter detection lever 37 of the diameter detection means 32 swings around the shaft 37a as a fulcrum by contact with the peripheral surface of each wrapping coin 20 in the receiving tray 21 moving from the front to the rear, and this diameter detection lever 37 The denomination corresponding to the diameter of the wrapping coin 20 is identified from the amount of rocking. Further, the hole sensor 33 identifies whether each wrapping coin 20 is a denomination having a hole. The magnetic sensor 36 detects the material of the wrapping coin 20 and identifies the denomination. Based on these, the denomination of each wrapping coin 20 in the receiving tray 21 moving from the front to the rear is identified.

  At this time, when the wrapping coins 20 are normally aligned on the receiving tray 21 in the trough sensor 34, the wrapping coins 20 on the receiving tray 21 are translucent. When is inclined, it is not translucent, so that it is detected that the wrapping coin 20 is inclined and rejected.

  Further, in the length detection means 35, as shown in FIG. 5 (a), for example, if the wrapping coin 20 is a package of 50 500 yen coins, the wrapping coin 20 is detected by the length detection means 35 on both sides. Then, as shown in FIG. 5 (b), for example, if there is an abnormal packaging coin 20 in which 20 500 yen coins are packaged less than 50, one length detection means 35 Only the wrapping coin 20 is detected, and the other length detection means 35 does not detect the wrapping coin 20, so that it is identified as a packaging abnormality and an error occurs.

  If a rejection occurs during the identification process, the recognition tray 21 is moved to the identification completion position behind the receiving tray 21 to complete the identification, and then the receiving tray 21 is returned to the front wrapping coin receiving position, and the shutter 13 is moved. open. The operator checks the wrapping coins 20 in the receiving tray 21, and if there is a wrapping coin 20 that is slanted, aligns it correctly, or if there is a wrapping coin 20 that is abnormally packed, removes it and eliminates the cause of the rejection. . After that, when the operator re-commands the start of the deposit process with the operation unit 15, the identification process described above is resumed.

  Further, as shown in FIG. 4 (c), when all the wrapping coins 20 in the receiving tray 21 moving from the front to the rear are normally identified, the receiving tray 21 is stopped at the identification completion position that has passed the position of the identification means 31. In addition, the identification result is displayed on the display unit 17.

  When the operator who has approved the identification result instructs storage by the operation unit 15, as shown in FIGS. 4 (d) and 4 (e), the receiving tray 21 is further moved to the rear packaging coin discharging position, and the receiving tray 21 is moved. The gate 27 is opened and the presser part 28 is moved forward so that the wrapping coins 20 are sequentially discharged from the front side of the receiving tray 21 and stored in the storage 23 through the chute 22.

  After the completion of the release of the wrapping coin 20 from the receiving tray 21, as shown in FIG. 4 (a), the receiving tray 21 is returned to the front wrapping coin receiving position, the gate 27 is closed, and the holding portion 28 is moved backward. , Wait for the next deposit process. When the receiving tray 21 is returned to the front wrapping coin receiving position, the remaining confirmation of the wrapping coin 20 is confirmed by the identification means 31, and when the remaining is confirmed, the display unit 17 notifies the user with a display or sound.

  Further, every time the wrapping coins 20 are stored in the storage 23, the storage 23 stores the identification result by the identification means 31 and the mass per denominated wrapping coin 20 stored in the wrapping coin mass storage means 59. The stored total mass of the stored wrapping coins 20 is calculated, and the calculated stored total mass is displayed on the display unit 17.

  Therefore, the operator can confirm the stored total mass displayed on the display unit 17, and can determine whether or not to collect the wrapping coins 20 in the storage 23 from the total stored mass. Then, when collecting the wrapping coins in the storage 23, the recovery door 18 is unlocked and opened, the storage 23 is taken out from the machine body 12 and transported to the collection place, and the wrapping coins 20 in the storage 23 are collected. Recover. After the collection, the empty storage 23 is mounted in the airframe 12, and the collection door 18 is closed and locked, thereby enabling the deposit process.

  Thus, every time the wrapping coins 20 are stored in the storage 23, the storage total mass of the wrapping coins 20 stored in the storage 23 can be notified, and the operator can check it. It is possible to collect the storage 23 when the total amount of the wrapping coins 20 that can be easily collected by an operator is reached, and the collection work of the storage 23 can be easily and efficiently performed.

  Further, when the deposit process is continued without collecting the wrapping coins 20 in the storage 23, the wrapping coins 20 stored in the storage 23 become full. When the full state of the wrapping coins 20 stored in the storage 23 is detected by the full detection means 45, the deposit processing after that (until the full state is canceled) is stopped, and the display unit 17 notifies that and collects it. Encourage work.

  Next, the depositing process when setting the total recovery mass will be described.

  In advance, the operator inputs an arbitrary recovered total mass by the input means 55 of the operation unit 15, and sets the input recovered total mass in the recovered total mass storage means 60. Alternatively, the operator selects any one of a plurality of selectable recovery total masses stored in advance in the recovery total mass storage unit 60 by the selection setting unit 56 of the operation unit 15, and the selected recovery total is selected. The mass is set in the recovered total mass storage means 60.

  After the setting, as in the case of the depositing process when the above-described total recovery mass is not set, the depositing process for identifying the wrapping coin 20 and storing it in the storage 23 is performed.

  Each time the wrapping coin 20 is stored in the storage 23, the identification result by the identification means 31 and the mass per piece of the denominated wrapping coin 20 stored in the wrapping coin mass storage means 59 are stored in the storage 23. The total storage mass of the stored wrapping coins 20 is calculated and compared with the calculated total storage mass of the wrapping coins 20 and the total recovery mass set in the recovery total mass storage means 60 in advance.

  If the stored total mass does not reach the recovered total mass, that fact may be displayed on the display unit 17, or the current stored total mass may be displayed on the display unit 17.

  When the stored total mass reaches the recovered total mass, the display unit 17 displays that effect. For this reason, the operator confirms that the total storage mass has reached the total recovery mass on the display unit 17, and performs the recovery operation. That is, the recovery door 18 is unlocked and opened, the storage 23 is taken out from the machine body 12 and transported to a recovery place, and the wrapping coins 20 in the storage 23 are recovered. After the collection, the empty storage 23 is mounted in the airframe 12, and the collection door 18 is closed and locked to enable the deposit process.

  Thus, every time the packaging coins 20 are stored in the storage 23, the total storage mass of the packaging coins 20 stored in the storage 23 is calculated, and the calculated total storage mass of the packaging coins 20 is set in advance. In order to notify when the total storage mass reaches the total recovery mass compared to the total recovery mass, for example, the total recovery mass of the wrapping coins 20 that can be easily recovered by one worker is set in advance. As a result, the collection operation of the storage 23 can be performed at the set total recovery mass, and the collection operation of the storage 23 can be easily and efficiently performed.

  In addition, an arbitrary total recovery mass suitable for the recovery operation can be input and set by the input means 55. Alternatively, since any one of a plurality of collection total masses that can be selectively set prepared in advance can be selected and set, it is possible to easily set the total recovery mass suitable for the collection operation.

  In addition, even after the total stored mass reaches the total recovered mass, the continuation means 57 is used when the operator continues the deposit process or when the operator can easily perform the recovery operation even if the total mass is heavier than the total recovered mass. By performing the operation, the wrapping coin 20 can be continuously deposited.

  In addition, if the wrapping coins 20 are stored in a pile up to the lower side of the receiving port 44 even if the wrapping coins 20 are not aligned and stored in the storage 23 and the total storage mass does not reach the total recovery mass, Even if it is determined that the total storage mass has not reached the total recovery mass, the wrapping coin 20 has become full, or the deposit process has continued even after the total storage mass has reached the total recovery mass. In this case, the wrapping coins 20 actually stored in the storage 23 may become full. When the full state of the wrapping coins 20 actually stored in the storage 23 is detected by the full detection means 45, the deposit process after that (until the full state is resolved) is stopped, and a notification to that effect is given on the display unit 17. Encourage collection work.

  The notification means 16 can be easily confirmed by the operator by displaying on the display unit 17, but may be notified by voice, or the display and voice may be used in combination.

  Further, the wrapping coin depositing machine 11 can be operated so as to be communicably connected to a higher-order machine such as a cash-out machine (not shown) and operate according to a command from the higher-order machine. These wrapping coin depositing machines 11 and the host machine constitute a wrapping coin depositing system. In this case, the notification means 16 may be provided in the host machine, or may be provided in both the wrapping coin deposit machine 11 and the host machine. When the notification means 16 is provided in the host machine, the same effect as that provided in the wrapping coin deposit machine 11 can be obtained.
