And

  The invention according to claim 8 is the invention according to claim 4, wherein the forward path inspection operation, the forward path re-storage operation, the backward path inspection operation and the return path re-storing operation are a series of operations, and the series of operations is denominated. It is performed every time.

  According to the first aspect of the present invention, at the time of the withdrawal process, the banknote is fed out from the denomination circulation section and identified by the identification section, and the banknote that has not been identified as normal is stored in the temporary storage section and is identified as normal. Withdrawing banknotes to the transaction gate. Then, when there are banknotes stored in the temporary storage unit that cannot be identified as normal, the banknotes are identified by the payout identification unit, and the unacceptable banknotes that are not identified as normal are stored in the transaction port, Temporary storage unit loading and unloading operation for storing the banknotes identified as normal in the denomination circulation unit, and banknotes stored in the transaction port are identified by the feeding identification unit, and unacceptable banknotes not identified as normal are temporarily When the banknotes identified as normal are stored in the storage section, the transaction opening / closing operation for storing the banknotes identified in the denomination circulation section alternately is repeated, and when there are no banknotes that cannot be stored, Exit. Therefore, a dedicated unit for storing banknotes that have not been identified as normal during the dispensing process and separating them one by one is dispensed with. Also, since the banknotes that were not identified as normal at the time of withdrawal processing were previously identified as normal and stored in the denomination circulation part, there is no need for a dedicated part such as a posture correction mechanism. By alternately repeating the temporary storage unit exit / storage operation and the transaction port exit / storage operation, it can be identified as normal and stored in the denomination circulation unit. Therefore, it is possible to effectively use the banknotes once identified as normal and stored in the denomination circulation part without unnecessarily storing them unusable while suppressing an increase in cost.

  According to the second aspect of the present invention, during the storage process, the banknote is fed out from the temporary storage unit and identified by the identification unit, and the banknote that has not been identified as normal is stored in the transaction port, while the banknote identified as normal is stored. The storing operation to store in the denomination circulation part is performed. After that, when there is a banknote that is not identified as normal and is stored in the transaction port, this banknote is identified by the payout identification unit, and the non-acceptable banknote that is not identified as normal is stored in the temporary storage unit, Transaction opening / closing operation for storing banknotes identified as normal in the denomination circulation section, and banknotes stored in the temporary storage section are identified by the feeding identification section, and unacceptable banknotes not identified as normal are traded The re-storing operation of alternately storing and storing the banknotes identified as normal in the denomination circulation part while being stored in the mouth is repeated, and when the banknotes that cannot be stored disappear, this re-storing operation Exit. Therefore, a dedicated unit that stores banknotes that have not been identified as normal during the storage process and separates and feeds them out one by one becomes unnecessary. In addition, since the banknote that was not identified as normal at the time of the storing process is a banknote that was once identified as normal at the time of the depositing process and temporarily stored in the temporary storage unit, By alternately repeating the transaction opening / closing operation and the temporary storage unit storage operation, it can be identified as normal and stored in the denomination circulation portion. Therefore, it is possible to effectively use the banknote once identified as normal and temporarily stored in the temporary storage unit without unnecessarily storing the banknote while being unusable.

  According to the third aspect of the invention, during the self-scrutiny process, the banknotes are identified from the denomination circulation section and identified by the identification section, and the banknotes that are not identified as normal are stored in the transaction port and identified as normal. After the banknotes are stored in the temporary storage unit, the banknotes stored in the temporary storage unit are identified by the feeding and identification unit, and the banknotes that are not identified as normal are stored in the transaction port, while the banknotes identified as normal are stored. Performs scrutiny operation to be stored in the denomination circulation part. After that, when there is a banknote that is not identified as normal and is stored in the transaction port, this banknote is identified by the payout identification unit, and the non-acceptable banknote that is not identified as normal is stored in the temporary storage unit, Transaction opening / closing operation for storing banknotes identified as normal in the denomination circulation section, and banknotes stored in the temporary storage section are identified by the feeding identification section, and unacceptable banknotes not identified as normal are traded The re-storing operation of alternately storing and storing the banknotes identified as normal in the denomination circulation part while being stored in the mouth is repeated, and when the banknotes that cannot be stored disappear, this re-storing operation Exit. This eliminates the need for a dedicated unit for storing banknotes that are not identified as normal during the self-examination process and separating and feeding them one by one. Also, the banknotes that were not identified as normal during the self-scrutiny process were previously identified as normal and stored in the denomination circulation part, so there is no dedicated part such as a posture correction mechanism. By alternately repeating the transaction opening / closing operation and the temporary storage unit storing / operating operation, it is possible to identify normal and store the money in the denomination circulation portion. Therefore, it is possible to effectively use the banknotes once identified as normal and stored in the denomination circulation part without unnecessarily storing them unusable while suppressing an increase in cost.

  According to the invention of claim 4, during the self-scrutiny process, the banknotes are identified from the denomination circulation part and identified by the identification part, and the banknotes that are not identified as normal are stored in the transaction port and are identified as normal. When there is a banknote stored in the transaction port that cannot be identified as normal after that, the banknote is identified as normal by the payout identification unit. While storing the banknote that cannot be stored in the forward path in the denomination circulation section, the banknote identified as normal is stored in the temporary storage section. After that, when there are banknotes stored in the denomination circulation part, the banknotes are fed out from the denomination circulation part and identified by the identification part, and the forward storage impossible banknotes that have not been identified as normal are stored in the transaction port. The outgoing money type circulating part exit / restore operation for storing the banknote identified as normal in the temporary storage part is performed. In this way, it is possible to identify a banknote that has not been identified as normal and store it in the temporary storage unit by performing the outbound transaction outlet / reservoir operation and, in some cases, further performing the outbound money type recirculation unit exit / restore operation. Increases nature. Next, the banknote is fed out from the temporary storage unit, identified by the identification unit, and the banknote that has not been identified as normal is stored in the transaction port while the banknote identified as normal is stored in the denomination circulation unit. If there is a banknote that cannot be identified as normal and is stored in the transaction port, the banknote is identified by the payout identification unit, and the unrecognized banknote that cannot be identified as normal is stored in the temporary storage unit. On the other hand, the return transaction opening and closing operation for storing the banknote identified as normal in the denomination circulation part, and the banknote is fed out from the temporary storage part and identified by the identification part, and the return path unacceptable banknote not identified as normal is stored. While storing in the transaction port, performing a return path re-storing operation that alternately and repeatedly performs a return path temporary storage part storing and storing operation for storing the banknote identified as normal in the denomination circulation part, and when there are no return path storing banknotes, This return path re-storing operation To completion. This eliminates the need for a dedicated unit for storing banknotes that are not identified as normal during the self-examination process and separating and feeding them one by one. Also, the banknotes that were not identified as normal during the self-scrutiny process were previously identified as normal and stored in the denomination circulation part, so there is no dedicated part such as a posture correction mechanism. , After the outbound path scrutiny operation, perform the outbound route outlet storage operation and the outbound money type recirculation part exit / storage operation. Thus, it can be identified as normal and stored in the temporary storage unit or the denomination circulation unit. Therefore, it is possible to effectively use the banknotes once identified as normal and stored in the denomination circulation part without unnecessarily storing them unusable while suppressing an increase in cost.

  According to the invention according to claim 5, the scrutiny operation and the re-storing operation are set as a series of operations, and when this series of operations is performed for one denomination, the next one denomination is performed. Since this is performed for each denomination, the amount of banknotes fed out to the transaction port at one time without being identified as normal can be reduced. Therefore, even if there is little bill capacity of a transaction slot, it can respond.

  According to the invention according to claim 6, when the scrutiny operation is completed for one denomination, the denomination is performed for each denomination, such as for the next denomination, and then collectively. Since the re-storing operation is performed, the entire processing time can be shortened.

  According to the invention of claim 7, when the scrutiny operation is performed for a plurality of denominations for each denomination as described above, when the banknote of the transaction port reaches a predetermined amount, that is, the banknote may be full. If the denomination of the denomination that is currently in scrutiny is completed, the re-storing operation is performed once, and the banknotes of the transaction account are stored in the denomination circulation section. Since the scrutinizing operation is performed for the remaining denominations that are not operating, it is possible to suppress the banknotes at the transaction port from becoming full. Therefore, processing can be performed smoothly.

  According to the invention of claim 8, when the forward pass scrutiny operation, the forward pass re-storing operation, the return pass scrutiny operation, and the return pass re-storing operation are set as a series of operations, Since it is performed for each denomination, such as for one denomination, it is possible to reduce the amount of banknotes fed out to the transaction port at one time without being identified as normal. Therefore, even if there is little bill capacity of a transaction slot, it can respond.

It is conveyed to the banknote store 39 as a temporary storage unit, and stored in the banknote store 39.

  After the transaction opening / closing operation is started, when the presence / absence detection sensor 21b detects that there is no bill remaining in the transaction port 21, and a transport path sensor (not shown) detects that there are no bills in the bill transport path 41, The transaction opening / closing operation is terminated. And at the time after this transaction opening / closing operation | movement, the presence detection sensor 39b detects the presence or absence of the banknote which cannot be stored stored in the banknote warehouse 39 as a temporary storage part. If there are no banknotes that cannot be stored in the banknote bank 39, the re-storing operation is terminated and the storage process is terminated. On the other hand, if there are unacceptable banknotes stored in the banknote bank 39, all the unacceptable banknotes stored in the banknote bank 39 are identified by the feed-out identifying unit 28 as shown in bold lines in FIG. While storing unidentifiable banknotes that have not been identified in the transaction port 21, banknotes identified as normal are corresponding to banknotes 35 to 37 as denomination circulation parts and banknote storage 38 as a denomination mixed storage part. The temporary storage part storage / retraction operation of the re-storage operation to store is performed.

  Specifically, in the temporary storage unit take-out and storage operation, the payout unit 39a separates the banknotes in the banknote bank 39 one by one from the top one and feeds them out at a predetermined interval. As shown by a thick solid line, the conveyance path 41A of the bidirectional conveyance unit 51 passes through the conveyance path 41F and is conveyed again to the identification unit 28 through a route passing through the conveyance path 41A. At this time, the banknote enters the identification unit 28 from one end side and exits to the other end side, and the identification unit 28 identifies and counts the banknote moving in this direction. Then, banknotes identified as normal based on the identification result of the identification unit 28, as indicated by thick solid lines in FIG. 37 and the corresponding ones in the banknote storage 38. Thereby, the banknote identified as normal is accommodated in the thing corresponding to the banknote storage 35-37 and the banknote storage 38 similarly to the above.

  On the other hand, as shown by the thick solid line to the thick broken line in FIG. Temporary storage section exit and storage operation by a route that passes through the transport path 41G of the bidirectional transport section 51, passes through the transport path 41F of the bidirectional transport section 51, and the transport path 41L as the branch transport section.

Interrupt.

  When the presence / absence detection sensor 39b detects that no banknotes are left in the banknote storage 39 after the temporary storage unit exit / storage operation is started, and a conveyance path sensor (not shown) detects that no banknotes are left in the banknote conveyance path 41, The storage section exit / storage operation is terminated. And at the time after this temporary storage part taking-out / storage operation | movement, the presence detection sensor 21b detects the presence or absence of the banknote which cannot be stored stored in the transaction port 21. FIG. If there is no bankable banknote stored in the transaction port 21, the re-storing operation is terminated and the storage process is terminated. On the other hand, if there are unacceptable banknotes stored in the transaction port 21, the above described transaction account storage operation is performed for the route shown in FIG. If there is a banknote, the temporary storage part taking-in and storing operation of the route shown in FIG. 4 is performed, and thereafter, the transaction slot taking-out and storing operation and the temporary storage part taking-in and storing operation are repeated alternately. Thus, in the re-storage operation of the storage process, until there are no banknotes that cannot be stored in the banknotes 35 to 37 and the banknote 38, in other words, all banknotes are handled by the banknotes 35 to 37 and the banknote 38. The transaction opening / closing operation and the temporary storage unit loading / unloading operation are alternately repeated until the bills are stored, and when there are no banknotes that cannot be stored, the re-storage operation is terminated and the storage process is terminated.

  In addition, since the banknote which becomes the object of re-storage operation | movement by storage processing is the banknote temporarily identified by the identification part 28 at the time of a money_receiving | payment process, and was temporarily stored in the banknote store | warehouse | chamber 39 as a temporary storage part, The reasons for not being identified as normal at the time of identification are all due to single-shot factors such as identification scan failure due to noise, optical / magnetic pattern mismatch due to misalignment of identification point, near feed due to feeding failure / conveyance failure, feeding failure / conveyance failure This is either double feed due to, skew feeding due to feeding failure or conveyance failure. For this reason, the banknotes are always identified as normal by alternately repeating the transaction opening / closing operation and the temporary storage unit storage operation. Therefore, as described above, in the re-storage operation, the transaction opening / closing operation and the temporary storage unit storage / reception operation are alternately repeated until there are no banknotes that cannot be stored. Specifically, since noise is instantaneous, normal identification is possible by re-identification. In addition, since the optical / magnetic pattern mismatch mainly affects the bill scanning direction in the identification unit, it is particularly effective in the difference in the transport direction in the identification unit, and normal identification is possible by re-identification. Since near-feed and double-feed are eliminated by re-separation / feed-out, normal identification can be performed by re-identification. Since skew is corrected by accumulation at the transport destination, normal identification is possible by re-identification.

  In addition, the replenishment process which replenishes banknotes 35-37 as a money-type circulation part is performed similarly to the above-mentioned deposit process and storage process.

Until this time, the temporary storage part storing operation and the transaction slot storing operation are repeated alternately. When there are no banknotes that cannot be stored, the restorage operation is terminated and the loose banknote dispensing process is terminated.

  In addition, the banknote which becomes the object of re-storing operation | movement in a rose banknote withdrawal process was once recognized as normal by the identification part 28 at the time of a money_receiving | payment process and a storage process, and was accommodated in the banknote storage 35-37 which is a money-type circulation part. Since it is a thing, the reason why it is not identified as normal at the time of identification of the rose banknote dispensing process is the same as the above-described storage process. For this reason, a banknote is always identified as normal by repeating said transaction opening / closing operation | movement and temporary storage part storage / storage operation | movement alternately.

"Bundling process"
The thick line in FIG. 10 indicates a banknote from the specified denomination of the banknote bank 35, the banknote bank 36, and the banknote bank 37 as the denomination circulation unit based on the bundle dispensing operation input to the operation unit 14. It shows the route of the bundle withdrawal process for binding and dispensing. In the bundle withdrawal process, the banknote delivery destination that has been fed to the transaction port 21 by the withdrawal operation of the loose banknote withdrawal process is used as the alignment unit 30.

  In the bundle withdrawal process, first, banknotes are identified from the banknote storage 35-37 as the denomination circulation part by the feeding identification unit 28, and the banknotes that are not identified as normal are shown by thick solid lines to thick broken lines in FIG. As shown in FIG. 10, the banknotes identified as normal while being stored in the banknote storage 39 as the temporary storage unit are fed out to the alignment unit 30, and the predetermined bank specified by the alignment unit 30 is stored. A withdrawal operation for feeding out the denomination and the number of withdrawal banknotes and a binding operation for binding and dispensing the withdrawal banknotes are performed.

  Specifically, in the dispensing operation, the banknotes stored in the designated denominations of the banknote storage 35 to 37 are separated one by one from the upper ones corresponding to the feeding sections 35a to 37a, and a predetermined amount As shown by the thick solid line in FIG. 10, the fed banknotes are dispensed at intervals, and the corresponding ones of the conveyance paths 41B to 41D of the bidirectional conveyance unit 51 and the conveyance path 41A are transferred to the identification unit 28. Transport. At this time, the banknote enters the identification unit 28 from the other end side and exits to the one end side, and the identification unit 28 identifies and counts the banknote moving in this direction. Then, banknotes that are identified as normal based on the identification result of the identification unit 28, as indicated by the thick solid line in FIG. Is required to be reversed by the front / back reversing unit 43 via the conveyance path 41J, and then conveyed to the alignment unit 30 by the conveyance paths 41A and 41K. Thereby, the banknote of the designated single denomination is fed out to the aligning unit 30 by the unit number of unity. Then, by the binding operation, the stacked banknotes in the alignment unit 30 are conveyed to the binding unit 31 by the transfer unit 33, bound by the binding unit 31, and fed to the bundle dispensing unit 32. Such processing is performed for the designated number of bundles for each designated denomination.

  Further, in the dispensing operation, banknotes that are not identified as normal by the identification by the identification unit 28 are conveyed from the conveyance path 41A of the bidirectional conveyance unit 51 to the conveyance path, as shown by a thick solid line to a thick broken line in FIG. The route passes through 41F and again passes through the transport path 41A, and is transported to the banknote store 39 as an empty temporary storage unit at the time when the dispensing operation is started, and stored in the banknote store 39.

  When it is confirmed that the specified predetermined denomination and the number of withdrawal banknotes are fed out to the aligning unit 30 after the withdrawal operation is started, the withdrawal operation is terminated. Then, at the time after this dispensing operation, the presence / absence detection sensor 39b detects the presence / absence of banknotes stored in the banknote storage 39 as a temporary storage unit. If there is no banknote stored in the banknote bank 39, the bundle dispensing process is terminated. On the other hand, if there are banknotes stored in the banknote bank 39, in the same way as the rose banknote withdrawal process, until there are no banknotes that cannot be stored in the banknote bank 35-37, in other words, all banknotes are stored in the banknote bank 35. Until the storage in the corresponding one of ~ 37, a re-storage operation that alternately repeats the temporary storage section storage operation of the route shown in FIG. 8 and the transaction outlet storage operation of the route shown in FIG. When there are no banknotes that cannot be stored, the re-storing operation is terminated, and the bundle dispensing process is terminated on condition that the binding operation is terminated.

  Note that banknotes subject to re-storing operations in the bundled withdrawal process are also temporarily identified as normal by the identification unit 28 during the depositing process and the storing process, and stored in the banknote storage 35 to 37 that are denomination circulation units. Therefore, the reason why it is not identified as normal at the time of identifying the withdrawal process is the same as in the above-described storage process. For this reason, a banknote is always identified as normal by repeating said transaction opening / closing operation | movement and temporary storage part storage / storage operation | movement alternately.

"Self-examination processing"
The self-scrutiny process is a process of detecting the height of the designated ones (including all designations) of the banknotes 35 to 37 as the denomination circulation part and the banknotes 38 as the denomination mixed storage part. The thick line in FIG. 11 shows all the banknotes stored in the corresponding ones in the banknote storage 35 to 37 and the banknote storage 38 based on the self-scrutiny processing operation input to the operation section 14 as a temporary storage section. The forward route of the self-scrutiny process stored in the banknote bank 39, and the thick line in FIG. 12 indicates the return path of the self-scrutiny process for returning the banknotes once stored in the banknote bank 39 to the original banknote bank 35-37 and banknote bank 38. Each route is shown. In the first embodiment, when a plurality of banknotes 35 to 37 and banknote bank 38 are designated as the scrutiny object, self-scrutiny processing is performed individually. That is, the process of performing the self-scrutiny process for the first scrutinization object warehouse, and performing the self-scrutiny process for the second scrutiny object warehouse is performed sequentially for all designated scrutiny objects.

  In the self-scrutinization processing, the banknotes are identified by the feeding identification unit 28 from one of the banknote warehouses 35 to 37 as the denomination circulation part and the banknote bank 38 as the denomination mixed storage part and identified as normal. As shown by the thick solid line to the thick broken line in FIG. 11, the banknote identified as normal while the shutter 24 is stored in the transaction port 21 in the closed state is shown by the thick solid line in FIG. In addition, the forward inspection operation stored in the banknote store 39 as a temporary storage unit, and then the banknote stored in the banknote store 39 is identified by the feeding identification unit 28, and the banknotes that are not identified as normal are shown in FIG. As shown by the thick solid line to the thick broken line, the banknotes 35 to 37 and the banknotes identified as normal while the shutter 24 is stored in the transaction port 21 in the closed state are shown in FIG. Said one of the banknotes 38 Perform a scrutiny working consisting of a return path scrutiny working to be stored in the object repository.

  Specifically, in the forward scrutiny operation of the scrutinization operation, the banknotes stored in the set one of the banknote stores 35 to 37 and the banknote store 38 are transferred from the upper end to the feeding portions 35a to 38a. Corresponding ones will be fed out, and the fed banknotes will be transferred to the discriminating unit 28 by the corresponding ones of the conveying paths 41B to 41E of the bidirectional conveying unit 51 and the conveying path 41A as shown by the thick solid line in FIG. Transport. At this time, the banknote enters the identification unit 28 from the other end side and exits to the one end side, and the identification unit 28 identifies and counts the banknote moving in this direction. Then, the banknotes identified as normal based on the identification result of the identification unit 28 are again transferred from the conveyance path 41F of the bidirectional conveyance unit 51 via the conveyance path 41A, as shown by a thick solid line in FIG. It is conveyed to 39. Thereby, all the banknotes identified as normal among the banknotes stored in the one of the banknote stores 35 to 37 and the banknote bank 38 are stored in the banknote store 39.

  On the other hand, the banknotes that are not identified as normal by the identification by the identification unit 28 of the forward path scrutinization operation are scrutinized by the route passing through the conveyance path 41A of the bidirectional conveyance unit 51 as shown by the thick solid line to the thick broken line in FIG. At the time of starting operation, it is transported and stored in the transaction port 21 that is empty and has the shutter 24 closed.

  After the start of the outbound scrutiny operation, there is no banknote in one of the banknote stores 35 to 37 and one of the banknote stores 38 provided in the one of the scrutinization boxes 35b to 38b. When the transport path sensor (not shown) detects that there are no banknotes in the banknote transport path 41, the forward path inspection operation is terminated. Then, the return path inspection operation is continued.

  In the return path inspection operation, the banknote once transferred to the banknote bank 39 as described above passes through the transport path 41F from the transport path 41A of the bidirectional transport unit 51 and again passes through the transport path 41A as shown by a thick solid line in FIG. It conveys to the identification part 28 by the route | root which passes. At this time, the banknote enters the identification section 28 from one end side and exits to the other end side, and the identification section 28 identifies and counts the banknote moving in the opposite direction to the forward path inspection operation. . And based on the identification result of the identification part 28, as shown by the thick solid line in FIG. 12, the banknotes 35-37 and banknotes are passed through the corresponding ones of the transport paths 41A-41E. The corresponding one of the warehouses 38 is stored in the corresponding examination object warehouse.

  On the other hand, as shown by a thick solid line to a thick broken line in FIG. The shutter 24 is closed by a route that passes through the conveyance path 41G of the bidirectional conveyance unit 51, the conveyance path 41F of the bidirectional conveyance unit 51, the conveyance path 41L as the branch conveyance unit, and again through the conveyance path 41A of the bidirectional conveyance unit 51. It is transported to the state transaction port 21 and stored. At this time, the banknote passing through the conveyance path 41F without being identified as normal by the identification unit 28 is prioritized, and while the banknote passes through the conveyance path 41F, the banknote is fed from the banknote box 39 toward the identification unit 28. Interrupt.

  After the return path scrutiny operation is started, the presence / absence detection sensor 39b detects that there are no banknotes in the banknote storage 39 as a temporary storage unit, and a conveyance path sensor (not shown) detects that there are no banknotes in the banknote conveyance path 41. Then, the return path check operation, that is, the return path check operation and the return path check operation are finished. Then, at the time after this scrutiny operation, the presence / absence detection sensor 21b detects the presence / absence of banknotes stored in the transaction port 21. If there is no banknote stored in the transaction port 21, the self-scrutiny process for the one scrutinization target warehouse is terminated. On the other hand, if there are banknotes stored in the transaction port 21, all the banknotes stored in the transaction port 21 are identified by the feeding identification unit 28, and unacceptable banknotes that are not identified as normal are shown in FIG. As shown by the thick broken line from the solid line, the banknotes identified as normal while being stored in the banknote 39 as the temporary storage unit, as shown by the thick solid line in FIG. 37 and the banknote storage 38 as a denomination mixed storage part, the transaction opening / closing operation | movement of the re-storage operation | movement accommodated in said one said close | scrubbing object storage is performed.

  Specifically, in the transaction slot storing operation, the feeding unit 21a separates the banknotes on the placement plate 22 of the transaction slot 21 one by one in order from the top one and feeds them all at a predetermined interval. The banknotes are transported by the transport path 41A of the bidirectional transport unit 51 as shown by a thick solid line in FIG. At this time, the banknote enters the identification unit 28 from one end side and exits to the other end side, and the identification unit 28 identifies and counts the banknote moving in this direction. And the banknote recognized as normal by the identification part 28 is shown by the thick solid line in FIG. Transport to one of the warehouses to be examined. Thereby, the banknote discriminated as normal is stored in the corresponding one of the banknote warehouses 35 to 37 and the banknote bank 38 in the same manner as described above.

  On the other hand, unacceptable banknotes that have not been identified as normal by the identification unit 28 are empty at the start of the transaction opening / closing operation on the conveyance path 41A of the bidirectional conveyance unit 51, as shown by a thick solid line to a thick broken line in FIG. It is conveyed to the banknote store 39 as a temporary storage unit, and stored in the banknote store 39.

  After the transaction opening / closing operation is started, when the presence / absence detection sensor 21b detects that there is no bill remaining in the transaction port 21, and a transport path sensor (not shown) detects that there are no bills in the bill transport path 41, The transaction opening / closing operation is terminated. And at the time after this transaction opening / closing operation | movement, the presence detection sensor 39b detects the presence or absence of the banknote which cannot be stored stored in the banknote warehouse 39 as a temporary storage part. If there are no banknotes that cannot be stored in the banknote bank 39, the re-storing operation is terminated, and the self-scrutiny process for the one scrutiny object is terminated. On the other hand, if there are unacceptable banknotes stored in the banknote bank 39 as a temporary storage unit, all the unacceptable banknotes stored in the banknote bank 39 are identified by the feeding identification unit 28 and are not identified as normal. As shown by a thick solid line from a thick solid line to a thick broken line in FIG. 4, a banknote identified as normal while being stored in the transaction port 21, as shown by a thick solid line in FIG. The temporary storage part storing / retracting operation of the re-storing operation to be stored in the corresponding one of the banknote stores 38 to 37 corresponding to the banknote stores 35 to 37 and the banknote store 38 as the denomination mixed storage unit is performed.

  Specifically, in the temporary storage unit take-out and storage operation, the payout unit 39a separates the banknotes in the banknote bank 39 one by one from the top one and feeds them out at a predetermined interval. As shown by a thick solid line, the conveyance path 41A of the bidirectional conveyance unit 51 passes through the conveyance path 41F and is conveyed again to the identification unit 28 through a route passing through the conveyance path 41A. At this time, the banknote enters the identification unit 28 from one end side and exits to the other end side, and the identification unit 28 identifies and counts the banknote moving in this direction. And the banknote identified as normal based on the identification result of the identification part 28 respond | corresponds among the banknote storage 35-37 and the banknote storage 38 by the thing of the conveyance paths 41A-41E of the bidirectional | two-way conveyance part 51. Transport to the one scrutinized warehouse. Thereby, the banknote discriminated as normal is stored in the corresponding one of the banknote warehouses 35 to 37 and the banknote bank 38 in the same manner as described above.

  On the other hand, as shown by the thick solid line to the thick broken line in FIG. Temporary storage section exit and storage operation by a route that passes through the transport path 41G of the bidirectional transport section 51, passes through the transport path 41F of the bidirectional transport section 51, and the transport path 41L as the branch transport section. At the start time, it is transported and stored in the transaction port 21 that is empty and has the shutter 24 closed. At this time, the banknote passing through the conveyance path 41F without being identified as normal by the identification unit 28 is prioritized, and while the banknote passes through the conveyance path 41F, the banknote is fed from the banknote box 39 toward the identification unit 28. Interrupt.

  When the presence / absence detection sensor 39b detects that no banknotes are left in the banknote storage 39 after the temporary storage unit exit / storage operation is started, and a conveyance path sensor (not shown) detects that no banknotes are left in the banknote conveyance path 41, The storage section exit / storage operation is terminated. And at the time after this temporary storage part taking-out / storage operation | movement, the presence detection sensor 21b detects the presence or absence of the banknote which cannot be stored stored in the transaction port 21. FIG. If there are no banknotes that cannot be stored in the transaction port 21, the re-storing operation is terminated, and the self-scrutiny process for the one scrutiny object is terminated. On the other hand, if there are unacceptable banknotes stored in the transaction port 21, the above described transaction account storage operation is performed for the route shown in FIG. If there is a banknote, the temporary storage part taking-in and storing operation of the route shown in FIG. 4 is performed, and thereafter, the transaction slot taking-out and storing operation and the temporary storage part taking-in and storing operation are repeated alternately. Thus, in the re-storing operation of the self-scrubbing process, until there are no banknotes that cannot be stored in the banknote bank 35 to 37 and banknote bank 38, in other words, all banknotes are stored in the banknote bank 35 to 37 and banknote bank 38. The transaction opening / closing operation and the temporary storage unit loading / unloading operation are repeated alternately until the corresponding one of the scrutinized warehouses is stored. The process ends.

  By the above self-scrutinization processing, the counting result of the identification unit 28 matches the number of banknotes stored in the one scrutinization target warehouse that has performed the self-scrutiny processing of the banknote storage 35 to 37 and the banknote storage 38. Become. When the self-scrutiny process is performed for a plurality (including all) of the banknotes 35 to 37 and the banknote bank 38, the self-scrutiny process in which the above-described scrutiny operation and re-storage operation are performed as a series of operations is performed. The set items of 35 to 37 and the banknote storage 38 are individually set as one scrutiny target storage. That is, when performing self-scrutiny processing for a plurality of denominations (including all denominations) in the banknote storage 35 to 37, the scrutiny operation and the re-storing operation are set as a series of operations, and this series of operations is performed for each denomination. To do. In other words, unless the deliberation operation of one denomination is completed, it does not shift to the next denomination.

  Note that banknotes subject to re-storing operation in the self-scrubbing process are also identified as normal once by the identification unit 28 during the depositing process and the storing process, and the banknote storage 35-37 and the denomination mixed storing part as denomination circulation parts The reason why it is not identified as normal at the time of identification of the self-scrutinization processing is the same as that of the above-described storage processing. For this reason, a banknote is always identified as normal by repeating said transaction opening / closing operation | movement and temporary storage part storage / storage operation | movement alternately.

"Local organization processing"
The thick line in FIG. 13 indicates the outbound route of the local organization process for identifying and counting the rose banknotes inserted into the transaction port 21 from outside the machine. That is, when a loose banknote is placed on the placement plate 22 of the transaction port 21 and an input operation for performing local organization processing is performed on the operation unit 14 together with the denomination designation, the feeding unit 21 a The banknotes on the loading plate 22 are separated one by one from the top one in order and fed out at a predetermined interval, and the fed banknotes are transported by the transport path 41A as shown by a thick solid line in FIG. It will be. The identification unit 28 identifies and counts the banknotes during conveyance on the conveyance path 41A, and the banknotes determined by the identification unit 28 as the designated denomination are conveyed to the banknote store 39 via the conveyance path 41A. The banknote determined to be other than the designated denomination is transported from the transport path 41A to the deposit reject unit 26 through the transport paths 41G, 41F, and 41H as shown by the thick solid line to the thick broken line in FIG. As a result, banknotes of the specified denomination are temporarily stored in the banknote bank 39, and banknotes other than the specified denomination are discharged to the deposit reject unit 26.

  The thick line in FIG. 14 indicates the return route of the local organization process. As described above, the banknote 39 once stored in the banknote bank 39 is fed out from the upper end by the feeding section 39a, and the fed banknote is transferred to the identification section 28 by the conveyance path 41A as shown by the thick solid line in FIG. Based on the identification result of the identification unit 28, those that do not need to be reversed are transported to the alignment unit 30 by the transport paths 41A and 41K, and those that need to be reversed by the front / back reversing unit 43 via the transport path 41J. After being reversed, the sheet is conveyed to the alignment unit 30 by the conveyance paths 41A and 41K. In this way, banknotes of a designated single denomination are fed out to the aligning unit 30 by the number of unity bundles. Then, the stacked banknotes in the alignment unit 30 are conveyed to the binding unit 31 by the transfer unit 33, bound by the binding unit 31, and fed to the bundle dispensing unit 32. Such processing is repeated as long as the unit number of binding units is accumulated in the alignment unit 30. In addition, even when fractional banknotes less than the unit number of bundles are accumulated in the alignment unit 30, they are bound and fed to the bundle dispensing unit 32 with identification indicating that they are fractional banknotes. In addition, about the banknote identified as the double feed etc. by the identification part 28 in the local arrangement | positioning process, as shown by the thick solid line to the thick broken line in FIG. 14, it conveys to the money_receiving | payment rejection part 26 by conveyance path 41A, 41I, 41H, The money is discharged to the deposit reject unit 26.

  According to the banknote depositing / dispensing machine according to the first embodiment described above, the banknotes are identified from the banknote storage 35-37 as the denomination circulation part at the time of the bulk banknote dispensing process, and are identified as normal. Withdrawing the banknote identified as normal to the transaction port 21 is performed while storing the banknote that has not been identified in the banknote storage 39 as a temporary storage unit. Thereafter, when there are banknotes that cannot be identified as normal and are stored in the banknote bank 39, the banknotes are identified by the feeding identification unit 28, and unacceptable banknotes that are not identified as normal are stored in the transaction port 21. On the other hand, the temporary storage unit loading and unloading operation for storing the banknotes identified as normal in the banknote storage 35 to 37 and the banknotes stored in the transaction port 21 are identified by the feeding identification unit 28 and not identified as normal. While storing the banknotes that cannot be stored in the banknote bank 39, the banknote storage operation for storing the banknotes identified as normal in the banknote bank 35 to 37 is repeated, and the banknotes that cannot be stored disappear. And this re-storing operation is finished. Therefore, a dedicated unit for storing banknotes that have not been identified as normal during the dispensing process and separating them one by one is dispensed with. Moreover, since the banknote which was not identified as normal at the time of withdrawal processing is a banknote previously identified as normal and stored in the banknote storage 35-37 as a denomination circulation part, a posture correction mechanism, etc. Even if there is no dedicated part, it can be identified as normal and stored in the banknotes 35 to 37 by alternately and repeatedly performing the temporary storage part taking out and storing operation and the transaction opening and closing operation. Accordingly, it is possible to effectively use the banknotes once identified as normal and stored in the banknote storage 35 to 37 without unnecessarily storing the banknotes unusably. In addition, since the direction of the banknote which passes the identification part 28 becomes reverse by the payment | withdrawal operation | movement, the temporary storage part taking-out / accounting operation, and the transaction slot taking-out / accommodating operation, it can re-identify suitably.

  Moreover, at the time of a storage process, a banknote is drawn out from the banknote store | warehouse | chamber 39 as a temporary storage part, is identified with the identification part 28, and the banknote identified as normal is stored in the transaction port 21, and the banknote identified as normal is gold | metal | money. The storing operation | movement accommodated in the banknotes 35-37 as a kind circulation part and the banknote bank 38 as a money type mixing accommodation part is performed. Thereafter, when there are banknotes that cannot be identified as normal and are stored in the transaction port 21, the banknotes are identified by the feeding identification unit 28, and unacceptable banknotes that are not identified as normal are stored in the banknote bank 39. On the other hand, banknotes stored in the banknote storage 39 and banknote storage operation for storing the banknotes identified as normal in the banknote storage 35 to 37 as denomination circulation sections and the banknote storage 38 as a denomination mixed storage section. The banknote storage 35-37 and denomination mixing as a denomination circulation part for the banknote discriminated as normal while storing the banknotes that cannot be stored as normal and storing them in the transaction port 21. The re-accommodating operation of alternately repeating the temporary storage unit exiting and storing operation stored in the banknote storage 38 as the storing unit is performed, and when the banknotes that cannot be stored are exhausted, the re-accommodating operation is terminated. Therefore, a dedicated unit that stores banknotes that have not been identified as normal during the storage process and separates and feeds them out one by one becomes unnecessary. Moreover, since the banknotes that were not identified as normal at the time of the storing process are the banknotes that were once identified as normal at the time of the depositing process and temporarily stored in the banknote storage 39, there is no dedicated part such as a posture correcting mechanism, By alternately repeating the transaction opening / closing operation and the temporary storage / removal operation, the transaction is identified as normal and stored in the banknote storage 35-37 as the denomination circulation portion and the banknote storage 38 as the denomination mixed storage portion. can do. Therefore, it is possible to effectively use the banknotes once identified as normal and temporarily stored in the banknote store 39 without being unnecessarily stored unusable.

  Further, during the self-scrutiny processing, banknotes are fed out from the banknotes 35 to 37 as denomination circulation parts and the banknotes 38 as denomination mixed storage parts are identified by the identification part 28, and the banknotes not identified as normal are traded. After storing the banknotes identified as normal in the banknote store 39 as a temporary storage unit while being stored in the mouth 21, the banknotes stored in the banknote store 39 are identified by the feeding identification unit 28 and identified as normal. The banknotes identified as normal are stored in the banknotes 35 to 37 as denomination circulation parts and the banknote bank 38 as a denomination mixed storage part while storing the banknotes that have not been stored in the transaction port 21. Thereafter, when there is a banknote that cannot be identified as normal and is stored in the transaction port 21, the banknote is identified by the feeding identification unit 28, and the banknote that is not identified as normal is stored as a temporary storage unit. The transaction opening / closing operation for storing the banknote identified as normal while storing in the bank 39 in the banknote storage 35-37 as the denomination circulation section and the banknote storage 38 as the denomination mixing storage section, and as a temporary storage section The banknotes stored in the banknote bank 39 are identified by the payout identification unit 28, and the banknotes that are identified as normal are stored in the transaction port 21 while the banknotes that are not identified as normal are stored in the transaction port 21. When the banknotes 35 to 37 and the temporary storage part storing and storing operation stored in the banknote bank 38 as the denomination mixed storage part are alternately repeated, the re-storing operation is performed when the banknotes that cannot be stored disappear. Exit . This eliminates the need for a dedicated unit for storing banknotes that are not identified as normal during the self-examination process and separating and feeding them one by one. Banknotes that were not identified as normal during the self-examination process were once identified as normal before and stored in the banknotes 35 to 37 as denomination circulation parts and the banknote bank 38 as a denomination mixed storage part. Therefore, even if there is no dedicated part such as a posture correction mechanism, the transaction outlet and storage operation and the temporary storage part storage and storage operation are alternately repeated, so that it can be identified as normal and used as a denomination circulation part. Can be stored in the banknote storage 35 to 37 and the banknote storage 38 as a denomination mixed storage section. Therefore, the banknotes once identified as normal and stored in the banknotes 35-37 as the denomination circulation part and the banknote storage 38 as the denomination mixed storage part are effectively used without being stored unnecessarily. Can be realized while suppressing an increase in cost. In addition, since the direction of the banknote passing through the identification unit 28 is reversed in the forward path scrutinization operation, the return path scrutiny operation, the temporary storage unit storage / retraction operation, and the transaction port storage / retraction operation, re-identification is possible.

  Also, during the self-scrutiny process, the scrutinization operation and the re-storing operation are taken as a series of operations, and when this series of operations is completed for one denomination, the next denomination is performed. Therefore, it is possible to reduce the amount of banknotes fed out to the transaction port 21 at a time without being identified as normal. Therefore, even if there is little bill capacity of transaction mouth 21, it can respond.

  In the above, when performing self-scrutiny processing using a plurality of banknotes 35 to 37 as denomination circulation parts and a banknote bank 38 as a denomination mixed storage part (including all) as a scrutiny object, The scrutinization operation and the re-storing operation are set as a series of operations, and this series of operations is performed individually for each scrutiny target. However, only the scrutiny operation is performed without performing the re-storing operation. It is possible to individually perform the re-storing operation for the banknotes stored in the transaction port 21 from the plurality of scrutinized warehouses. If it controls in this way, it will be performed for a plurality of scrutiny objects for each scrutiny object, such as when the scrutiny operation is performed for one scrutiny object, and then the next one scrutiny object, and then, Since the re-storage operation is performed collectively, the entire processing time can be shortened.

  In this case, looking at the banknotes 35 to 37 as denomination circulation stores, a scrutiny operation is performed for a plurality of denominations for each denomination, and then a re-accommodation operation for a plurality of denominations is performed. Therefore, when the scrutiny operation is completed for one denomination, the denomination is performed for a plurality of denominations for each denomination, such as for the next denomination, and then the re-accommodation operation is performed collectively. Therefore, the entire processing time can be shortened.

  In addition, as described above, only the scrutiny operation is individually performed for a plurality of scrutinized warehouses among the banknotes 35 to 37 and the banknote bank 38, and thereafter, the banknotes stored in the transaction port 21 are collectively collected and re-stored. In this case, when it is detected that the banknote of the transaction port 21 has reached a predetermined amount that is near full during the scrutiny operation, the scrutiny operation of the scrutiny target that is performing the scrutiny operation at that time is performed. At the time of completion, the re-accommodation operation is performed to store the banknotes of the transaction port 21 in the corresponding ones of the banknote stores 35 to 37 and the banknote store 38, and then the scrutinization operation is performed on the scrutiny object that has not been scrutinized. May be performed. By controlling in this way, when the scrutiny operation is performed for a plurality of scrutinized warehouses as described above, when the banknote of the transaction port 21 reaches a predetermined amount, that is, when the possibility of becoming full increases. In this case, once the scrutiny operation of the scrutiny target that is scrutinizing at that time is completed, the re-storing operation is performed once, and the banknotes of the transaction port 21 are stored in the banknotes 35 to 37 and the banknote bank 38, Then, since the scrutinization operation is performed for the remaining scrutinization target warehouses that have not been scrutinized, it is possible to suppress the banknote of the transaction port 21 from becoming full. Therefore, processing can be performed smoothly.

  In this case, looking at the banknotes 35 to 37 as denomination circulation boxes, when the banknote of the transaction port 21 reaches a predetermined amount while performing for a plurality of denominations for each denomination, When the denomination operation of the denomination that has been scrutinized is completed, the re-storing operation is performed once, and then the remaining denominations that have not undergone the scrutiny operation are performed. Therefore, when performing the scrutiny operation for multiple denominations for each denomination as described above, when the banknote of the transaction port 21 reaches a predetermined amount, that is, when the possibility of becoming full increases, At the time when the scrutiny operation of the denomination that has been scrutinized at that time is completed, the re-storing operation is performed once, and the banknote of the transaction port 21 is stored in the banknote storage 35-37 as the denomination circulation part, Since the scrutinization operation is performed for the remaining denominations that have not been scrutinized, it is possible to suppress the banknote of the transaction port 21 from becoming full. Therefore, processing can be performed smoothly.

  Moreover, when performing self-scrutinization processing by using plural (including all) of the banknotes 35 to 37 of the denomination circulation part and the banknotes 38 as the denomination mixed storage part as a scrutiny object banknotes 35 to 37. Only when the total number of banknotes stored in a plurality of scrutinized warehouses in the banknote bank 38 based on the data stored in the control unit 55 is less than or equal to the maximum number of banknotes 39 stored. Instead of performing individual self-examination processing as described above, all may be performed collectively. That is, instead of the above-described scrutiny operation, banknotes are fed out sequentially from all designated scrutinized warehouses among the banknotes 35 to 37 as denomination circulation parts and the banknote 38 as a denomination mixed storage part. A bank pass that has been identified as 28 and is not identified as normal is stored in the transaction port 21 in which the shutter 24 is in a closed state, while a banknote identified as normal is stored in the banknote store 39 as a temporary storage unit. Operate and empty all scrutinized warehouses once. Thereafter, the banknotes stored in the banknote store 39 are identified by the pay-out identifying unit 28, and the banknotes that are not identified as normal are identified as normal while being stored in the transaction port 21 in which the shutter 24 is in the closed state. A return path scrutiny operation is performed in which the banknotes are stored in the corresponding scrutiny objects among the banknote boxes 35 to 37 and the banknote bank 38. Then, the re-storage operation which stores all the banknotes which cannot be stored in the banknote 35-37 and the banknote bank 38 corresponding inspection object warehouse is performed.

  A bill depositing / dispensing machine according to a second embodiment of the present invention will be described mainly with reference to FIGS. 4, 5, 11, 12, 15, and 16, with a focus on differences from the first embodiment. . In the second embodiment, the self-examination process is different from the first embodiment.

"Self-examination process"

  In the self-scrutinization processing of the second embodiment, first, banknotes are fed out from one scrutinization target warehouse among the banknote warehouses 35 to 37 as denomination circulation sections and the banknote bank 38 as a denomination mixed storage section. The banknotes that are identified as normal while the banknotes that are not identified as normal are stored in the transaction port 21 in which the shutter 24 is closed as shown in FIG. As shown by a thick solid line in FIG.

  Specifically, in the outbound scrutiny operation, the banknotes stored in the set one of the banknote stores 35 to 37 and the banknote store 38 corresponding to the feeding portions 35a to 38a from the upper end are stored. As shown by a thick solid line in FIG. 11, the fed banknotes are conveyed to the identification unit 28 by the corresponding ones of the conveyance paths 41B to 41E of the bidirectional conveyance unit 51 and the conveyance path 41A. At this time, the banknote enters the identification unit 28 from the other end side and exits to the one end side, and the identification unit 28 identifies and counts the banknote moving in this way. And the banknote identified as normal based on the identification result of the identification part 28 passes through the conveyance path 41F of the bidirectional conveyance part 51 and again passes through the conveyance path 41A as shown by a thick solid line in FIG. Transport to banknote 39. Thereby, all the banknotes identified as normal among the banknotes stored in the one of the banknote stores 35 to 37 and the banknote bank 38 are stored in the banknote store 39.

  On the other hand, as shown by a thick solid line to a thick broken line in FIG. 11 for a banknote that has not been identified as normal by the identification by the identification unit 28 of the outbound path review operation, the outbound path inspection operation is started by the transport path 41A of the bidirectional transport unit 51. At that time, the product is transported and stored in the transaction port 21 that is empty and has the shutter 24 closed.

  What is provided in the one of the scrutiny objects among the presence / absence detection sensors 35b to 38b after the start of the outbound scrutiny operation has no banknotes in one of the scrutiny objects of the banknotes 35 to 37 and the banknote bank 38. When the conveyance path sensor (not shown) detects that there are no more banknotes in the banknote conveyance path 41, the forward path inspection operation is terminated. At the time after this forward pass inspection operation, the presence / absence detection sensor 21b detects the presence / absence of banknotes stored in the transaction port 21. If there is no banknote stored in the transaction port 21, the return path scrutiny operation described later is subsequently performed. On the other hand, if there are banknotes stored in the transaction port 21, all the banknotes stored in the transaction port 21 are identified by the feeding identification unit 28. As indicated by the thick solid line to the thick broken line, the corresponding one of the banknotes 35 to 37 as the denomination circulation part and the banknote 38 as the denomination mixing and storing part (the empty check in the forward check operation) The banknotes identified as normal while being stored in the banknote storage 39 as a temporary storage unit are stored in the banknote storage 39 as a temporary storage unit, as shown by a thick solid line in FIG. I do.

  Specifically, in the outbound transaction port exit and storage operation, the feeding unit 21a separates the banknotes on the placement plate 22 of the transaction port 21 one by one in order from the upper end, and delivers them all at a predetermined interval. The fed banknotes are transported on the transport path 41A of the bidirectional transport unit 51 as shown by a thick solid line in FIG. At this time, the banknote enters the identification section 28 from one end side opposite to the outward inspection operation and exits to the other end side, and the identification section 28 identifies and counts the banknote moving in this way. Become. And the banknote identified as normal by the identification part 28 is conveyed to the banknote store | warehouse | chamber 39 as a temporary storage part by the conveyance path 41A of the bidirectional | two-way conveyance part 51, as shown by the thick solid line in FIG. Store. Thereby, the banknote identified as normal is stored in the banknote bank 39 similarly to the above.

  On the other hand, as shown in FIG. 15 by the thick solid line to the thick broken line, the banknote storage 35 is configured to correspond to the transport paths 41A to 41E of the bidirectional transport unit 51. To 37 and the banknote bank 38 are transported to the one scrutinized warehouse in an empty state. As a result, the banknotes 35 to 37 and the banknote bank 38 corresponding to the corresponding one of the scrutinized warehouses store the banknotes that cannot be stored in the forward pass.

  When the presence / absence detection sensor 21b detects that no banknote remains in the transaction port 21 after the outbound transaction port exit / storage operation is started, and a conveyance path sensor (not shown) detects that there are no banknotes in the banknote conveyance path 41. The outbound transaction opening / closing operation is terminated. Then, at the time after the outbound transaction opening / closing operation, what is provided in the one scrutiny target of the presence / absence detection sensors 35b to 39b is stored in the one scrutiny target unacceptable banknote. The presence or absence of is detected. If there is no forward passable banknote stored in the one scrutinized warehouse, the forward pass re-storing operation is terminated and a return pass scrutiny operation described later is performed. On the other hand, if there is a banknote that cannot be stored in the forward pass stored in the one scrutinized warehouse, all the banknotes that cannot be stored in the forward scrutinized warehouse are identified by the feeding identification unit 28 and identified as normal. The banknotes identified as normal are stored temporarily as shown by the thick solid line in FIG. 16, while the banknotes that have not been forwarded are stored in the transaction port 21 as shown by the thick solid line to the thick broken line in FIG. The recirculation part exit / restore operation of the forward path money type of the forward path re-storage operation stored in the banknote bank 39 as a part is performed.

  Specifically, in the outgoing portion money type recirculation portion out and storage operation, among the feeding portions 35a to 39a, the one provided in the one scrutiny object separates the banknotes in the one scrutiny object one by one from the top one. Then, all the banknotes are fed out at a predetermined interval, and the fed banknotes are transported to the identification unit 28 by the corresponding ones of the transport paths 41A to 41E of the bidirectional transport unit 51 as shown by thick solid lines in FIG. . At this time, the banknote enters the identification unit 28 from the other end side and exits to the one end side, and the identification unit 28 identifies and counts the banknote moving in the opposite direction to the forward transaction opening / closing operation. become. And the banknote identified as normal based on the identification result of the identification part 28 is conveyed to the banknote warehouse 39 as a temporary storage part by the conveyance path 41A and the conveyance path 41F of the bidirectional | two-way conveyance part 51, Store. Thereby, the banknote identified as normal in the banknote store 39 is stored similarly to the above.

  On the other hand, as shown by a thick solid line to a thick broken line in FIG. At the time of starting the circulating portion exit / storage operation, it is transported and stored in the transaction port 21 that is empty and the shutter 24 is closed.

  After the start of the operation of exit / reservation of the recirculation part according to the outbound route, the one provided in the one scrutinized object storage among the presence / absence detection sensors 35b to 39b detects that no banknote is left in the one scrutinized object warehouse and is illustrated. When an abbreviated conveyance path sensor detects that there are no banknotes in the banknote conveyance path 41, the outbound money type recirculation part exit / storage operation is terminated, and the outbound path exit / storage operation and the outbound money type circulation part exit / storage operation are completed. After completing the re-storage operation, the return path inspection operation described later is performed.

  In this way, when a banknote stored in the transaction port 21 without being identified as normal in the forward path inspection operation is generated, the forward transaction port exit / storage operation is performed once, and the banknote that cannot be stored in the forward path is not lost. In this case, instead of performing the forward re-reserving operation to perform the outbound route re-storing operation once per outbound money type, the forward transaction outlet storing operation and the outbound money type recirculating portion storing operation are alternately performed. It is also possible to repeat the forward path re-storage operation until there are no banknotes that cannot be stored in the forward path.

  In the return path scrutiny operation, the banknotes stored in the banknote store 39 are identified by the payout identification unit 28, and the banknotes that are not identified as normal are closed by the shutter 24 as shown by the thick solid line to the thick broken line in FIG. The banknotes identified as normal while being stored in the transaction port 21 in the state are stored in the one of the banknote bank 35 to 37 and the banknote bank 38 as shown in FIG. .

  In the return path inspection operation, the banknote once transferred to the banknote bank 39 as described above passes through the transport path 41F from the transport path 41A of the bidirectional transport unit 51 and again passes through the transport path 41A as shown by a thick solid line in FIG. It conveys to the identification part 28 by the route | root which passes. At this time, the banknote enters the identification section 28 from one end side and exits to the other end side, and the identification section 28 identifies and counts the banknote moving in the opposite direction to the forward path inspection operation. And based on the identification result of the identification part 28, as shown by the thick solid line in FIG. 12, the banknotes 35-37 and banknotes are passed through the corresponding ones of the transport paths 41A-41E. The corresponding one of the warehouses 38 is stored in the corresponding examination object warehouse.

  On the other hand, as shown by a thick solid line to a thick broken line in FIG. The shutter 24 is closed by a route that passes through the conveyance path 41G of the bidirectional conveyance unit 51, the conveyance path 41F of the bidirectional conveyance unit 51, the conveyance path 41L as the branch conveyance unit, and again through the conveyance path 41A of the bidirectional conveyance unit 51. It is transported to the state transaction port 21 and stored. At this time, the banknote passing through the conveyance path 41F without being identified as normal by the identification unit 28 is prioritized, and while the banknote passes through the conveyance path 41F, the banknote is fed from the banknote box 39 toward the identification unit 28. Interrupt.

  After the return path scrutiny operation is started, the presence / absence detection sensor 39b detects that there are no banknotes in the banknote storage 39 as a temporary storage unit, and a conveyance path sensor (not shown) detects that there are no banknotes in the banknote conveyance path 41. Then, the return path check operation, that is, the return path check operation and the return path check operation are finished. Then, at the time after this scrutiny operation, the presence / absence detection sensor 21b detects the presence / absence of banknotes stored in the transaction port 21. If there is no banknote stored in the transaction port 21, the self-scrutiny process for the one scrutinization target warehouse is terminated. On the other hand, if there are banknotes stored in the transaction port 21, all the banknotes stored in the transaction port 21 are identified by the feeding identification unit 28, and the unreturnable banknotes that are not identified as normal are shown in FIG. 5. As shown by the thick solid line to the thick broken line, the banknotes identified as normal while being stored in the banknote bank 39 as the temporary storage unit, as shown by the thick solid line in FIG. .About.37 and the banknote bank 38 as the denomination mixing and storing unit are stored in the corresponding one of the scrutinized warehouses, and a return transaction opening / closing operation of the return path restorage operation is performed.

  Specifically, in the return transaction opening and closing operation, the payout unit 21a separates the banknotes on the placement plate 22 of the transaction opening 21 one by one in order from the top one, and pays out all at a predetermined interval. The fed banknotes are transported on the transport path 41A of the bidirectional transport unit 51 as shown by a thick solid line in FIG. At this time, the banknote enters the identification unit 28 from one end side and exits to the other end side, and the identification unit 28 identifies and counts the banknote moving in this direction. And the banknote recognized as normal by the identification part 28 is shown by the thick solid line in FIG. Transport to one of the warehouses to be examined. Thereby, the banknote discriminated as normal is stored in the corresponding one of the banknote warehouses 35 to 37 and the banknote bank 38 in the same manner as described above.

  On the other hand, as shown by a thick solid line to a thick broken line in FIG. 5, a banknote that is not recognized as normal by the identification unit 28 is started at the start of the return transaction opening / closing operation on the transport path 41A of the bidirectional transport unit 51. Then, it conveys to the banknote storage 39 as an empty temporary storage part, and stores it in the banknote storage 39. FIG.

  After the return path transaction opening / closing operation is started, when the presence / absence detection sensor 21b detects that there is no bill remaining in the transaction port 21, and a conveyance path sensor (not shown) detects that there are no bills in the bill conveyance path 41. Then, the return-path transaction opening / closing operation is terminated. Then, at the time after the return-path transaction opening / closing operation, the presence / absence detection sensor 39b detects the presence / absence of unreturnable banknotes stored in the banknote storage 39 as a temporary storage unit. If there is no return path storing banknote stored in the banknote bank 39, the return path re-storing operation is terminated, and the self-scrutiny processing for the one scrutinization target warehouse is terminated. On the other hand, if there are banknotes that cannot be stored in the return path stored in the banknote bank 39 as a temporary storage unit, all the banknotes that cannot be stored in the return path stored in the banknote bank 39 are identified by the feeding identification unit 28 and are identified as normal. As shown by the thick solid line to the thick broken line in FIG. 4, the banknotes identified as normal while storing the banknotes that cannot be stored in the return path as shown by the thick solid line in FIG. The return path temporary storage part storing / retracting operation of the return path re-storing operation stored in the corresponding one of the banknote stores 38 to 37 of the banknotes 35 to 37 and the banknote bank 38 as the denomination mixed storage unit is performed.

  Specifically, in the return path temporary storage part taking-out and storing operation, the feeding part 39a separates the banknotes in the banknote bank 39 one by one from the top one and feeds them out at a predetermined interval. As shown by a thick solid line in FIG. 4, the conveyance path 41A of the bidirectional conveyance unit 51 passes through the conveyance path 41F and is conveyed again to the identification unit 28 through a route passing through the conveyance path 41A. At this time, the banknote enters the identification section 28 from one end side through the conveyance path 41A and exits to the other end side, and the identification section 28 identifies and counts the banknote moving in this direction. And the banknote identified as normal based on the identification result of the identification part 28 respond | corresponds among the banknote storage 35-37 and the banknote storage 38 by the thing of the conveyance paths 41A-41E of the bidirectional | two-way conveyance part 51. Transport to the one scrutinized warehouse. Thereby, the banknote discriminated as normal is stored in the corresponding one of the banknote warehouses 35 to 37 and the banknote bank 38 in the same manner as described above.

  On the other hand, as shown by the thick solid line to the thick broken line in FIG. 4, the return path unacceptable banknote that has not been identified as normal by the identification by the identification unit 28, as shown in FIG. The return path temporary storage section exits by a route that passes through the transport path 41G of the bidirectional transport section 51, the transport path 41F of the bidirectional transport section 51, and the transport path 41L of the branch transport section, and again passes through the transport path 41A of the bidirectional transport section 51. At the time of starting the storage operation, it is transported and stored in the transaction port 21 that is empty and has the shutter 24 closed. At this time, the banknote passing through the conveyance path 41F without being identified as normal by the identification unit 28 is prioritized, and while the banknote passes through the conveyance path 41F, the banknote is fed from the banknote box 39 toward the identification unit 28. Interrupt.

  After the return path temporary storage section exit / storage operation is started, the presence / absence detection sensor 39b detects that there are no banknotes in the banknote storage 39, and a conveyance path sensor (not shown) detects that there are no banknotes in the banknote conveyance path 41. The return path temporary storage section exit / storage operation is terminated. The presence / absence detection sensor 21b detects the presence / absence of unreturnable banknotes stored in the transaction port 21 at the time after the return path temporary storage unit is put out and stored. If there is no return path storing banknote stored in the transaction port 21, the return path storing operation is terminated, and the self-scrutiny process for the one scrutiny object is terminated. On the other hand, if there is a banknote that cannot be stored in the return path stored in the transaction port 21, the above described return path transaction slot storage operation of the route shown in FIG. If there is a banknote that cannot be stored on the return path, the return path temporary storage section exit / storage operation shown in FIG. 4 is performed, and thereafter, the return path transaction opening / closing operation and the return path temporary storage section output / storage operation are repeated alternately. Thus, in the return pass re-accommodating operation of the self-scrutiny process, until there are no return pass refusable banknotes that cannot be stored in the banknote stores 35 to 37 and the banknote store 38, in other words, all banknotes are stored in the banknote stores 35 to 37 and the banknote store. The return-path transaction opening / closing operation and the return-path temporary storage section exit / storage operation are alternately repeated until they are stored in the corresponding one of the scrutinized warehouses. To finish the self-examination process.

  By the above self-scrutinization processing, the counting result of the identification unit 28 matches the number of banknotes stored in the one scrutinization target warehouse that has performed the self-scrutiny processing of the banknote bank 35-37 and banknote bank 38. It will be. When the self-scrutiny process is performed for a plurality (including all) of the banknotes 35 to 37 and the banknote bank 38, the above-described forward path check operation, forward path re-storage operation, return path check operation, and return path re-storing operation are performed in series. The self-scrutinization processing performed as the operation of is performed individually with the set one of the banknotes 35 to 37 and the banknote bank 38 as one scrutiny object. That is, when performing self-scrutiny processing for multiple denominations (including all denominations) in the banknote storage 35 to 37, a series of operations including a forward scrutinization operation, a forward re-storing operation, a return scrutiny operation, and a return stub operation This series of operations is performed for each denomination.

  According to the banknote depositing / dispensing machine according to the second embodiment described above, the banknotes 35 to 37 as denomination circulation parts and the banknote bank 38 as a denomination mixed storage part are fed out at the time of self-scrutiny processing. Is identified by the pay-out identifying unit 28, and the banknotes that are not identified as normal are stored in the transaction port 21, while the banknotes that are identified as normal are stored in the banknote store 39 as a temporary storage unit, Thereafter, when there is a banknote that cannot be identified as normal and is stored in the transaction port 21, this banknote is identified by the payout identification unit 28, and a banknote that is not identified as normal can not be stored as a denomination circulation unit. The banknotes 35 to 37 and the banknote bank 38 serving as a denomination mixed storage unit are stored in the banknote bank 39 serving as a temporary storage unit while storing the banknotes identified as normal while being stored in the banknote bank 38 serving as a denomination mixed storage unit. Operation Cormorant. Thereafter, only when banknotes 35 to 37 as denomination circulation parts and banknotes stored in a banknote bank 38 as a denomination mixed storage part are stored in banknotes 35 to 37 and gold The banknote is again identified from the one of the banknote storage 38 as the seed mixing storage unit by the delivery identification unit 28, and the forward storage impossible banknote that has not been identified as normal is stored in the transaction port 21 while being normal. An outward money type circulating part exit / restore operation is performed to store the identified banknote in the banknote storage 39 as a temporary storage part. In this way, the banknote storage as a temporary storage unit is performed by discriminating the banknotes that have not been identified as normal by performing the outbound transaction outlet / reservoir operation, and further performing the outbound money type recirculation unit exit / restore operation in some cases. The possibility of storing in 39 increases. Next, the banknote is fed out from the banknote store 39 as a temporary storage unit and identified by the identification unit 28, and the banknote that has not been identified as normal is stored in the transaction port 21, while the banknote that has been identified as normal is stored in the denomination circulation unit. If the banknotes 35 to 37 as the banknotes and the banknote bank 38 as the denomination mixed storage unit are operated in a return pass, and then there are banknotes that cannot be identified as normal and are stored in the transaction port 21, The banknote is identified by the payout identification unit 28, and the banknotes that are identified as normal are stored in the banknote storage 39 as the temporary storage unit while the banknotes that cannot be stored in the return pass are identified as normal, and the banknotes as the denomination circulation unit are stored. 35-37 and a return transaction outlet storing operation stored in the banknote bank 38 as a denomination mixed storage unit, and a banknote 39 is identified from the banknote 39 as a temporary storage unit, and is not identified as normal. Return trip While storing unpaid banknotes in the transaction port 21, banknotes identified as normal are stored in the banknote storages 35 to 37 as denomination circulation parts and the banknote storage 38 as a denomination mixed storage part. The return path re-storing operation is performed in which the operation is alternately repeated. When there are no banknotes that cannot be returned, the return path re-storing operation is terminated. This eliminates the need for a dedicated unit for storing banknotes that are not identified as normal during the self-examination process and separating and feeding them one by one. Banknotes that were not identified as normal during the self-examination process were once identified as normal before and stored in the banknotes 35 to 37 as denomination circulation parts and the banknote bank 38 as a denomination mixed storage part. Therefore, even if there is no dedicated part such as a posture correction mechanism, after the forward scrutinization operation, the forward transaction outlet / reservoir operation and the outbound money type recirculation part storage / restore operation are performed. By alternately repeating the outlet storage operation and the return path temporary storage portion storage operation, the banknote storage 39 as the temporary storage portion or the banknote storage 35 to 37 as the denomination circulation portion and denomination mixing are identified as normal. It can be stored in the banknote storage 38 as a storage unit. Therefore, the banknotes once identified as normal and stored in the banknotes 35-37 as the denomination circulation part and the banknote storage 38 as the denomination mixed storage part are effectively used without being stored unnecessarily. Can be realized while suppressing an increase in cost.

  In addition, it is said that the forward pass inspection operation, the forward pass re-storing operation, the return pass reexamination operation and the return pass re-storing operation are performed as a series of operations, and when the series of operations are performed for one denomination and finished, the next denomination is performed. Thus, since it carries out for every denomination, the quantity of the banknote drawn | fed out to the transaction port 21 at once without being identified as normal can be decreased. Therefore, even if there is little bill capacity of transaction mouth 21, it can respond.

  Also in the second embodiment, when the self-scrutiny process is performed with a plurality of (including all) the banknote bank 35 to 37 of the denomination circulation part and the banknote bank 38 as the denomination mixed storage part as a scrutinization object warehouse, The total number of banknotes stored in the banknotes 35 to 37 and the banknote bank 38 based on the data stored in the control unit 55 so far is less than or equal to the maximum number of banknotes 39 stored. Only when there is a case, it is possible to perform all of them in a lump instead of individually performing the self-examination process as described above. That is, instead of the above-described outbound inspection operation, banknotes are fed out in order from all designated inspection objects in the banknotes 35 to 37 as denomination circulation parts and the banknote 38 as a denomination mixed storage part. Outward path for storing banknotes identified as normal and banknotes identified as normal in banknote storage 39 while storing banknotes that are not identified as normal in transaction port 21 in which shutter 24 is closed. Perform a scrutinization operation and empty all scrutiny objects. Thereafter, the forward re-reserving operation similar to the above is performed to re-store the banknote of the transaction port 21 in the banknote storage 39 as a temporary storage unit. At this time, in the forward transaction outlet and storage operation, the banknotes that cannot be stored in the forward transaction are stored in any one of the banknotes 35 to 37 and the banknote storage 38, and in the outbound money type circulation portion storage and storage operation, Re-feed from one banknote. Next, the banknotes stored in the banknote store 39 are identified by the pay-out identification unit 28, and the banknotes that are not identified as normal are identified as normal while being stored in the transaction port 21 in which the shutter 24 is closed. A return path scrutiny operation is performed in which the banknotes are stored in the corresponding scrutiny objects among the banknote bank 35 to 37 and the banknote bank 38. Then, the return path re-storing operation | movement which re-stores the banknote of the transaction port 21 in the banknote 35-37 and the corresponding scrutiny object bank of 38 is performed.
