It is possible to switch between the open state and the locked state in which money cannot be entered and exited.

  As a condition for this switching control, user verification is employed in the present embodiment. Specifically, for example, ID information (user information) of a user set in advance as an authorized person is stored in the hard disk drive 225g and is read by the ID card reader 228 (user information acquisition means). The information is collated with the ID information of the authorized person by the arithmetic control unit 225c as the user identifying means. Only when the result of the collation is YES, that is, when the ID information read by the ID card reader 228 matches the ID information of the user set as a permitted person in advance, the control device 225 opens and closes the open / close electromagnetic lock 211m˜ 215m can be controlled and it can be set as the open state in which money can enter and exit.

  As another switching control condition, in this embodiment, in addition to user verification, verification of operation information may be employed. The operation information is, for example, operation information set for each deposit / withdrawal operation, and is usually data of deposit / withdrawal denomination and amount, but may also include data regarding the procedure of deposit / withdrawal operation. As a specific mode of collation of operation information, for example, operation information of an operation set in advance as a permitted operation is transferred and stored in the RAM 225e, for example, using the communication function from the teller machine 100, while the operation is performed by the user. A 4-digit operation number corresponding to the information can be input by the keyboard type operation unit 226 (operation information acquisition means). Then, the input 4-digit operation number information can be collated with the operation information transferred and stored by the arithmetic control unit 225c as the operation identifying means. In this case, the control device 225 only opens / closes the electromagnetic locks 211m to 215m only when the collation result is YES, that is, when the input 4-digit operation number matches the operation information of the permitted operation transferred and stored. Can be set to an open state in which money can be inserted and withdrawn. In this aspect, preferably, the open / close electromagnetic locks 211m to 215m can be individually controlled in accordance with the specific contents of the entry / exit operation. Specifically, only the drawer that stores the denominations to be entered and exited can be switched to the open state. Furthermore, it is also possible to employ a control mode in which each drawer is sequentially switched to an open state so that a plurality of drawers are not simultaneously opened.

  In addition, in this Embodiment, the following structures are further employ | adopted using the money management apparatus 200 (money processing terminal machine) and the teller machine 100 (money processing main body machine) mutually communicating. ing.

  The control unit 15 of the teller machine 100 (money processing main body machine) uses a communication function to check and / or scrutinize the data of the money management device 200 (money processing terminal). It is configured to function as. Specifically, the control unit 15 of the teller machine 100 (money processing main body machine) can control the arithmetic control unit 225c, which is a scrutinizing means, via the communication interface (communication IF) 19 and the communication interface (communication IF) 229. It is like that.

  The control unit 15 of the teller machine 100 (money processing main body machine) can also control the open / close electromagnetic locks 211m to 215m via the communication interface (communication IF) 19 and the communication interface (communication IF) 229. Yes.

  Specifically, the communication interface (communication IF) 229 functions as an unlock signal receiving unit that receives an unlock signal for controlling the open / close electromagnetic locks 211m to 215m (lock devices) to be opened. Correspondingly, the control unit 15 of the teller machine 100 (money processing main body machine) transmits a lock release signal via a communication interface (communication IF) 19 under a predetermined condition. ) 229.

  In this way, when the control of the open / close electromagnetic locks 211m to 215m is performed on the cashier 100 side, the specific conditions of control can be set or adjusted on the cashier machine 100 side. It is possible to more intensively manage the operation, and hence the management of the money input / output operation.

  In this case, it is preferable that the open / close electromagnetic locks 211m to 215m are configured to be automatically locked after the drawers are opened / closed after the open / close electromagnetic locks 211m to 215m are opened. Alternatively, the open / close electromagnetic locks 211m to 215m are preferably configured to be automatically locked after a predetermined time has elapsed since the open / close electromagnetic locks 211m to 215m have been opened.

  More preferably, the communication interface (communication IF) 229 functions as a lock signal receiving unit that receives a lock signal for controlling the open / close electromagnetic locks 211m to 215m (lock devices) to be locked. Correspondingly, the control unit 15 of the teller machine 100 (money processing main body machine) sends a lock signal to the communication interface (communication IF) 229 via the communication interface (communication IF) 19 under a predetermined condition. May be configured to transmit.

  In this case, the money management apparatus 200 further includes closing operation detection devices 211c to 215c that detect changes of the drawers 211 to 215 from the open state to the closed state, and a detection signal from the closing operation detection device is sent to the teller machine 100. It is preferable that the lock signal is transmitted when the teller machine 100 receives the detection signal. In this case, management of lock control of each drawer can be performed more centrally on the cashier 100 side.

  Alternatively, it is preferable that the open / close electromagnetic locks 211m to 215m are configured to be automatically locked when a predetermined time has elapsed since the open / close electromagnetic locks 211m to 215m have been opened. Moreover, it is preferable that the money management apparatus 200 is further provided with the opening operation detection apparatuses 211o-215o which detect the change from the closed state of each drawer 211-215 to an open state.

  In addition, a notification device (alarm device) 280 that outputs a notification signal when the drawers 211 to 215 are open for a predetermined time or longer is further provided.

  A key detection unit 290 in FIG. 9 is a sensor device that detects when the drawer is opened and closed when the money management apparatus 200 is powered off. This is a new technology at least in the technical field, but since it is not directly related to the concept of the present invention, a description thereof is omitted here.

  Next, an operation example of the money handling system described above will be described with reference to a flowchart.

  FIG. 10 is a flowchart of an example of an entry / exit operation preparation process on the teller machine 100 side. First, ID information of the operator of the teller machine 100 is read by the ID card reader 15b (STEP 11). Based on the ID information, it is identified whether or not the operator is an operation authorized person of the teller machine 100 (STEP 12).

  If the user is an authorized person, the operation menu of the teller machine 100 is displayed on the display unit 15a (STEP 13). While viewing the display, the operator (operation authorized person) inputs the operation content using the keyboard type operation unit 16 (STEP 14). Here, in this example, in order to further improve the security, a password input is requested (STEP 15).

  After collating the passwords, the operator (operation authorized person) inputs details of the entry / exit operation using the keyboard type operation unit 16 (STEP 16). Specifically, data of the denomination and amount of money (the number of bundles or the number of bundles) may be entered. Thereafter, the input completion is detected by the operation of the input completion key by the operator (STEP 17). The teller machine 100 specifies (issues) an operation number (sometimes referred to as an interlocking number) as operation information with respect to the details of the input / output operation that has been input, and the operation number and the detailed contents of the actual input / output operation Is stored in the hard disk 15g (STEP 18). Further, a receipt displaying the operation number is issued from the receipt issuing device 18 (STEP 19).

  FIG. 11 is a flowchart of an example of an entry / exit operation preparation process in the cash management apparatus 200. First, the ID information of the operator of the cash management apparatus 200 is read by the ID card reader 228 (STEP 21). Based on the ID information, it is identified whether or not the operator is an operation authorized person of the cash management apparatus 200 (STEP 22).

  If it is an operation authorized person, the operation menu of the cash management apparatus 200 is displayed on the display unit 227 (STEP 23). While viewing the display, the operator (operation authorized person) inputs the operation content using the keyboard type operation unit 226 (STEP 24).

  First, the case where the interlocking process with the teller machine 100 is selected will be described first.

  When the interlocking process is selected, in this example, in order to further improve security, a password input is requested (STEP 25).

  After collation of the personal identification number, the operator (operation authorized person) uses the keyboard type operation unit 226 to input the operation number (interlocking number) issued by the teller machine 100 (STEP 26). Thereby, the cash management apparatus 200 uses the communication function, based on the association information stored in the hard disk 15g of the teller machine 100, the detailed information of the entry / exit operation corresponding to the operation number (called processing queue: (In addition to data on denominations and amounts of money to be entered / exited, data on drawer opening / closing procedures may be included) (STEP 27), and part of the information (may be all) may be used for operator confirmation It is displayed (STEP 28). After confirmation, completion of entry / exit preparation is detected by operation of the input completion key by the operator (STEP 29).

  Next, the case where the non-interlocking process with the teller machine 100 is selected will be described. The process in this case is substantially the same as the process of the conventional cash management apparatus.

  When the non-interlocking process is selected, in this example, in order to further improve the security, a password input is requested (STEP 125).

  After collation of the passwords, the operator (operation authorized person) inputs details of the entry / exit operation using the keyboard type operation unit 226 (STEP 126). Specifically, data of the denomination and amount of money (the number of bundles or the number of bundles) may be entered. Thereafter, the input completion is detected by the operation of the input completion key by the operator (STEP 127).

  Next, FIG. 12 is a flowchart of an example of a drawer opening / closing process in the cash management apparatus 200. Here, it is assumed that the order of drawers to be opened is determined based on the detailed information (processing queue) of the entry / exit operation.

  First, the lock of the electromagnetic open / close lock corresponding to the drawer that is initially opened is released (STEP 31). The unlock control may be performed by the control unit 225 in the cash management apparatus 200, or may be performed by the control unit 15 of the teller machine 100 through a communication function.

  The unlocked drawer is opened by the operator, and a money insertion / exit operation is performed. Here, if the drawer is not released even after a predetermined time has passed since the lock was released, the notification device 280 sounds an alarm (STEP 32). Further, even when a predetermined time has elapsed since the drawer was opened, the notification device 280 sounds an alarm (STEP 33).

  When the money entry / exit operation ends smoothly and the operator closes the drawer, the electromagnetic open / close lock corresponding to the drawer is locked (STEP 34). This lock control may also be performed by the control unit 225 in the cash management apparatus 200, or may be performed by the control unit 15 of the teller machine 100 via a communication function.

  If the entry / exit processing for the other drawer (denomination) remains and enters, the process is repeated for the next drawer to be opened. If there is no entry / exit processing for the other drawer (denomination), the entry / exit processing is performed. Finish and go to the scrutiny process.

  FIG. 13 is a flowchart of an example of a scrutiny process in the cash management apparatus 200.

  This scrutiny process is obtained based on the detailed information of the input / output operation obtained through the input of the operation number in the interlocking process with the teller machine 100, and is obtained through the input at the keyboard type operation unit 226 in the non-interlocking process. This is a process for determining whether or not the amount of money actually entered / exited matches the information based on the detailed information of the entered / exited operation. The amount of money actually entered and exited is calculated from the measurement result of money weight using a load cell (STEP 41).

  If the amount matches as a result of the scrutiny, the transaction content (including information on both the operation content and the operator) is stored in the hard disk 225g (STEP 42). If necessary, the processing result may be printed from a printer (not shown) (STEP 43).

  If the amount does not match as a result of the close examination, the drawer opening / closing process shown in FIG.

  As described above, according to the present embodiment, as a condition for making the cash management apparatus 200 usable (in / out operation possible), not only verification of user ID information but also verification of operation information is performed. By adopting the above, it is possible to effectively prevent a user's erroneous operation, and it is also very easy to manage operation records.

  In particular, the operation information employs a 4-digit operation number (preferably 3 digits or more) set (issued) for each deposit / withdrawal operation. There is no doubt that the operation content is known from the number.

  In addition, since the deposit / withdrawal data corresponding to the operation number is transferred from the cashier 100 to the cash management apparatus 200, it is not necessary for the user to manually input the deposit / withdrawal data itself. Is prevented.

  In addition, according to the present embodiment, it is possible to examine each input / output operation for an error in the input / output operation by performing a scrutinization process for each money input / output operation. Thereby, the user's erroneous operation can be effectively prevented, while it is also very easy to manage the operation record (entry / exit record) for each entry / exit operation. Furthermore, according to the present embodiment, user information can be easily managed in association with the entry / exit operation.

  Further, according to the present embodiment, the unlocking signal and / or the transmission condition of the lock signal can be set or adjusted on the teller machine 100 side. In this case, it is possible to centrally manage the operation of entering and exiting money. This is particularly effective in a system including a plurality of cash management apparatuses 200.

  In the above description, the collation of the user ID information and the collation of the operation information are performed on the cash management apparatus 200 side, but the place where the data is actually collated is not particularly limited. That is, these verifications may be performed on the cash management apparatus 200 side, may be performed on the cash machine 100 side, or may be performed using other hardware connected thereto. Also good. Also, the transfer timing of each data for collation is appropriately selected from various known modes and adopted.

  In addition to the weight sensor such as a load cell, a sensor for measuring the space occupation state of stored and stored money may be used as the means for measuring the stored money amount used for the scrutiny process. Depending on the amount of the stored money, the occupied volume in the storage container naturally varies, so that the space occupied state of the money (for example, up to which part of the storage container is occupied or stored by money) By detecting the number of bundled banknotes or the number of wrapping coins (how many are contained), the amount of stored coins stored in the storage container can be obtained. As such a sensor, for example, a line sensor composed of LEDs is used.
