  The present invention relates to a valuable medium processing apparatus, a valuable medium processing system, and a valuable medium processing method for processing damaged money, and in particular, a valuable medium processing apparatus for performing authenticity determination while visually checking an image obtained by imaging damaged money, The present invention relates to a valuable medium processing system and a valuable medium processing method.

  Conventionally, in a financial institution such as a bank, various operations such as a deposit / withdrawal operation received from a customer and a deposit / withdrawal operation for managing money handled in a bank are performed. The operations performed at these financial institutions are often performed using a money handling apparatus without human intervention from the viewpoint of safety, certainty, and labor saving. The money handling apparatus has a function of executing various processes related to valuable media such as deposit and withdrawal processing and management of securities such as coins, banknotes and checks (hereinafter collectively referred to as “valuable media”). . By using the money handling apparatus, for example, the denomination of banknotes is automatically identified and the total amount is calculated, or each banknote is stored in a predetermined storage unit according to the identification result and managed. The banknote corresponding to the money type and amount designated from the stored banknotes can be withdrawn.

  A financial institution may receive a torn banknote or a partially missing banknote from a customer. Banknotes that are severely damaged or dirty and cannot be transported normally even if they are inserted into the money handling apparatus, or banknotes whose denomination cannot be identified, are provided in the vicinity of the equipment without being inserted into the money handling apparatus. It is stored in the post (outside box). Information such as the denomination of the banknote stored in the post is visually confirmed by a bank clerk and manually input to the money handling apparatus (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

  However, according to the above-described prior art, there is a possibility that the damaged currency cannot be processed strictly and efficiently because the information input regarding the damaged currency is not accurate. Specifically, information regarding the denomination and authenticity of damaged money is manually entered into the money handling device by a bank employee who visually confirms the damaged money. There is a possibility of making a mistake.

  In particular, in authenticity judgment that determines whether or not it is true money, since forged money is forged to look like true money, it is difficult to make an accurate judgment by visual confirmation. Become. For example, various anti-counterfeiting techniques such as watermarks are used for banknotes, but many of them cannot be easily confirmed visually. Further, in the case of damaged money, it may be difficult to determine authenticity due to missing or dirty features. In addition, there is a problem that a financial institution that is required to perform deposit processing promptly and accurately cannot take time to determine the authenticity of damaged money.

  The present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems caused by the prior art, and can be used to easily and accurately determine the authenticity in a short time using an image obtained by capturing damaged money. It is an object to provide a medium processing apparatus, a valuable medium processing system, and a valuable medium processing method.

  In order to solve the above-described problems and achieve the object, the present invention provides a valuable medium processing system including a valuable medium processing apparatus that processes a valuable medium including damaged money and a terminal connected to the valuable medium processing apparatus.

  Further, the present invention is the above invention, wherein the feature image acquisition condition includes, for each type of money, an imaging condition for acquiring an image with which the feature of the feature part can be visually confirmed, and the control The unit controls the image acquisition unit to acquire an image of the damaged money based on the imaging condition.

  Further, the present invention is the above invention, wherein the partial image acquired from the damaged coin is an enlarged image, a transmission image, an infrared light image, or an ultraviolet light image captured so that the feature of the feature portion can be visually confirmed. At least any one of them is included.

  Further, the present invention is characterized in that, in the above-mentioned invention, the terminal is a dedicated terminal assigned to an operator different from an operator who operates the valuable medium processing apparatus.

  Further, the present invention is the above invention, wherein the terminal is a superior terminal assigned to a superior who manages an operator who operates the valuable medium processing apparatus, and the portion acquired by the valuable medium processing apparatus The image is restricted in view and is displayed so as to be viewable only on the superior terminal.

  Further, according to the present invention, in the above-described valuable medium processing device, the control unit acquires the partial image at a resolution that allows visual confirmation of the characteristic portion, and lowers the entire damaged money lower than the partial image. A whole image captured at a resolution is acquired.

  In the invention described above, the present invention is characterized in that a plurality of partial images acquired from one damaged coin are managed in association with the damaged coin.

  In addition, the present invention is a valuable medium processing apparatus that receives and stores a valuable medium including damaged money, an image acquisition unit that images the damaged money and acquires an image, and a type of the damaged money An operation unit, a storage unit set for each type of money, storing a feature image acquisition condition including position information of the feature unit used for authenticity determination, and the type of the damaged currency input by the operation unit And a control unit that acquires a partial image in which the feature of the feature part can be visually confirmed from an image captured by the image acquisition unit with reference to the feature image acquisition condition.

  According to the present invention, when a user inserts damaged money into the valuable medium processing device and inputs the type of the damaged money, the characteristic part that can be used for authenticity determination with this type of money is a part that can be visually confirmed. Since it is automatically acquired as an image, authenticity can be easily determined by displaying the acquired partial image on a terminal and visually confirming it.

  In addition, according to the present invention, a partial image obtained by imaging a characteristic portion with damaged money and a partial sample image obtained by imaging the characteristic portion with true money can be displayed side by side, so that both images coincide with each other. Whether or not the damaged money is authentic can be determined easily and accurately in a short time.

  Further, according to the present invention, the imaging conditions are changed, for example, a reflected image and a transmitted image are acquired at a creased portion called a watermark with a banknote to check the presence or absence of the watermark, or light is emitted with light of a predetermined wavelength. In the portion, it is possible to display and confirm an image picked up under the light emitting condition and an image picked up under the non-light emitting condition, so that the authenticity determination can be performed easily and accurately in a short time.

  Further, according to the present invention, it is possible to acquire a partial image used for authenticity determination from an enlarged image, an infrared light image, an ultraviolet light image, or the like based on the forgery prevention technology used for damaged money. Even if it is an image that is not visible under visible light, it is displayed side by side with the partial sample image that should be acquired with true money, so it is easy and accurate in a short time comparing both images Authenticity can be determined.

  Further, according to the present invention, for example, the counter in the valuable medium processing device confirms the authenticity of the damaged money and makes a deposit, and the terminal determines the authenticity of the damaged money in which a person other than the counter is deposited. By performing the above, since it is possible to perform the authenticity determination by two persons, it is possible to reliably perform the authenticity determination of the damaged money.

  Further, according to the present invention, for example, the security can be ensured by encrypting the partial image acquired by the valuable medium processing device and making it an image that can be viewed only by a superior having a predetermined authority.

  Exemplary embodiments of a valuable medium processing apparatus, a valuable medium processing system, and a valuable medium processing method according to the present invention will be described below in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the present embodiment, a case where a valuable medium processing apparatus is installed at a bank branch and deposits damaged money will be described as an example. In addition, since it can process similarly to the case where a damaged banknote (damaged ticket) is received also when accepting a coin as damaged money, suppose that the case where a damaged ticket is received is demonstrated to an example below.

  First, a difference between a damaged ticket and a damaged ticket, which are targets of processing by the valuable medium processing apparatus in the present embodiment, will be described. A bank uses a money handling apparatus for assisting money handling related to deposits and withdrawals, and banknotes that are not suitable for distribution in the market are processed as non-payments. Specifically, the outer shape of the bill is kept, and it is clear that the bill is a true bill from the result of the identification processing by the money handling apparatus, but the bill is determined not to be suitable for market distribution from the degree of damage. Is processed as a non-payment.

  On the other hand, a banknote that cannot be recognized as a banknote by the money handling apparatus and needs to be judged whether or not it is a true banknote is processed as a damaged ticket. For example, a banknote that is partially missing and does not retain its outer shape as a banknote is processed as a damaged ticket. For example, a banknote finely divided into three or more pieces varies in value depending on the remaining area, and is therefore processed as a damaged ticket that requires an appraisal process for determining the value. Also, when a foreign matter such as oil or glue adheres to a banknote and cannot be inserted into the money handling apparatus or cannot be transported, it is processed as a damaged ticket. What banknotes are accepted as damaged tickets is determined according to the operation of the bank, for example.

  Banknotes that are torn or burned and partially lost, banknotes that have been shattered by shredders, banknotes that are so dirty that it is difficult to determine whether they are banknotes, banknotes that have oil or glue, etc. Various banknotes that cannot be accepted by a generally used money handling apparatus are processed as damaged tickets. In the following, a partially damaged ticket will be described as an example.

  Next, the damaged ticket process performed by the valuable medium processing apparatus will be described. FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram for explaining processing contents of a damaged ticket performed using the valuable medium processing apparatus 1. FIG. 1A shows a process performed when the banknote counter at the bank deposits the damaged ticket 100 received at the window into the valuable medium processing apparatus 1. FIG. 1B shows an example of a screen displayed when the authenticity determination of the damaged ticket 100 deposited in the valuable medium processing apparatus 1 in FIG. 1A is performed. FIG. 1C shows an example of a screen displayed when the authenticity determination is completed.

  When a customer makes a request to exchange the partially damaged ticket 100 for normal money at the bank counter, the counter staff who receives the request throws the damaged ticket 100 into the valuable medium processing apparatus 1 ( FIG. 1 (a) A-1). In the valuable medium processing device 1, an image obtained by imaging the inserted damaged ticket 100 and information for assisting the determination of the ticket type and value of the damaged ticket 100 are displayed. The information such as the ticket type and value of the damaged ticket 100 is input based on (A-2).

  The bill type of the banknote refers to the type of banknote denomination and old and new types. Specifically, for example, in the case of Japanese banknotes, a combination of banknote issue time (A ticket to E ticket) and denomination is combined. Enter the ticket type, such as “10,000 yen ticket”.

  Moreover, if the value of a banknote is demonstrated concretely, the value of the correct ticket which does not have a defect will become equivalent to the money type of this banknote. On the other hand, the value of a non-performing banknote (a banknote that does not maintain the shape of a rectangular banknote or has a hole) is not equivalent to the denomination depending on the level of the defect. So enter its value. The criteria for determining the value of banknotes that are partially broken and missing are regulated by, for example, the central bank (the Bank of Japan in the case of Japan).

  When the damaged ticket 100 is inserted, the valuable medium processing device 1 acquires the entire image 101 obtained by imaging the entire damaged ticket 100 and stores it in the storage unit (A-3). Further, the valuable medium processing apparatus 1 acquires the partial image 102 used for authenticity determination of the ticket type based on the ticket type of the damaged ticket 100 input by the counter and stores it in the storage unit (A- 4). From one damaged ticket 100, two whole images 101 on the front and back sides and a plurality of partial images 102 corresponding to the ticket type are acquired and stored in the storage unit.

  The entire image 101 is stored as, for example, a low resolution image of 75 to 100 dpi. By using a low-resolution image, the data capacity in the storage unit can be reduced. Further, when the entire image 101 is printed by a printer, it is possible to prevent the image from being misused by making it a rough image that can be easily recognized as not being a true banknote.

  For example, the partial image 102 is stored as a high-resolution image of 200 to 240 dpi. Since the partial image 102 is used for authenticity determination of the damaged ticket 100, it is a high-resolution image so that the features appearing in the partial image 102 can be easily visually confirmed. However, the partial image 102 is an image obtained by capturing only a partial area of the banknote. Therefore, even if it is printed by a printer, it is not abused.

  The area to be the partial image 102 on the damaged ticket 100 is set in advance for each ticket type. Specifically, a partial area that can be used for authenticity determination is set in advance based on the forgery prevention technology used for the ticket type, and an image obtained by capturing the partial area is defined as a partial image 102. For example, in Japan's 10,000-yen bill, anti-counterfeiting techniques such as micro characters, pearl ink, holograms, latent image patterns, special light-emitting inks, etc., are used in addition to a watermark pattern called a watermark. Since these are used in a predetermined area on the front and back surfaces for each bill type, a high-resolution image obtained by capturing a predetermined area on the front and back surfaces is specified as the partial image 102 after specifying the ticket type of the damaged ticket 100. save. The partial image 102 is picked up based on the characteristics of each partial area to which the anti-counterfeit technology is applied so that the characteristics can be visually confirmed.

  For example, in the case of micro characters printed with small characters that are difficult to see with the naked eye, a reflected image captured at a resolution at which the characters can be easily visually confirmed is stored as the partial image 102. In the penetration pattern, the reflection image and the transmission image are stored as the partial image 102 so that the presence of the penetration can be visually confirmed. By making the two images into a set of partial images 102, if the reflected image cannot be confirmed as a watermarked pattern, and if the transparent image can be confirmed as a watermarked pattern, the reflected image is determined to be a true banknote. If the watermarked design can be confirmed in both the transparent image and the transparent image, or if the design cannot be confirmed in both, it can be determined that the image is counterfeit.

  In special luminescent ink that emits light when irradiated with light of a predetermined wavelength range such as ultraviolet light, it is possible to visually check that the special luminescent ink is used, and to capture an image captured without light emission and ultraviolet light etc. An image captured in a state where the light is emitted and emitted is stored as a set of partial images 102. If the presence of the ink pattern can be confirmed only under a predetermined condition such as ultraviolet light, it is determined that the banknote is a true banknote, and if the pattern can be confirmed regardless of the condition or if the pattern cannot be confirmed regardless of the condition, forgery It can be determined that

  In the latent image and pearl ink, in which the pattern emerges when the banknote is tilted, the image capturing condition is changed, and an image captured in a state where the pattern cannot be visually confirmed and an image captured in a state where the pattern can be visually confirmed Saved as image 102. Similarly, in a hologram whose color and pattern change when the banknote is tilted, an image obtained by imaging a predetermined color and pattern by changing the imaging condition and an image obtained by imaging a color and / or pattern different from the image are 1 Stored as a set of partial images 102. Also in these cases, the authenticity can be determined from the difference in images obtained by changing the imaging conditions. The latent image, the pearl ink, and the hologram partial image 102 may be changed by changing the position of the light source by fixing the position of the light source, such as a line sensor used for imaging in the apparatus, or by fixing the position of the light source. Images are taken by changing the position of the sensor.

  Thus, based on the ticket type of the damaged ticket 100, an image captured so that the features in this area can be visually confirmed is stored as the partial image 102 for each predetermined partial area. The imaging conditions of the partial image 102 are set in advance according to the characteristics. In addition to the case where one partial image 102 is captured in one partial area, a plurality of reflection images, transmission images, and imaging conditions are changed. In some cases, a plurality of partial images 102 are acquired from one partial region such as an image.

  The low-resolution whole image 101 is acquired from a reflection image obtained by imaging the damaged ticket 100 under visible light. For example, under visible light, the entire damaged ticket 100 is imaged at a high resolution, and a predetermined area used for authenticity determination is cut out as a partial image 102 from the obtained high resolution image as necessary. An image obtained by converting a resolution image into a low-resolution image is defined as an entire image 101.

  The high-resolution partial image 102 is a transmission image or an infrared light image or an ultraviolet light image obtained by irradiating light in a predetermined wavelength range by a forgery prevention technique used in the ticket type of the damaged ticket 100. In some cases. For example, while the damaged ticket 100 passes the position of the line sensor, by performing alternating lighting control that switches a light source to be lit at a high speed among a plurality of light sources, a reflected image, a transmitted image, an infrared light image, an ultraviolet light image A plurality of images are acquired. When there are a plurality of line sensors, different types of images may be acquired for each line sensor. Moreover, at the time of imaging, only a partial area necessary as a characteristic part may be imaged and used as the partial image 102, or after the entire damaged ticket 100 is imaged, the necessary partial area may be cut out and used as the partial image 102. Moreover, the aspect which picks up several types of images by conveying so that the damage ticket 100 may reciprocate the imaging position by the line sensor with the fixed position may be sufficient. Since the method of acquiring the image of the damaged ticket 100 to be conveyed in the apparatus can use the technology used in the conventional banknote processing apparatus, detailed description thereof is omitted.

  In this way, the low resolution whole image 101 and the high resolution partial image 102 acquired as shown in FIG. 1A are managed inside by the management number or the like, inside the valuable medium processing apparatus 1 or in the valuable medium. It is stored in a server connected to the processing device 1.

  Then, at a predetermined timing, the authenticity determination of the damaged ticket 100 deposited in the valuable medium processing apparatus 1 is performed. Specifically, after the acceptance of the deposit processing at the bank is closed, the superior who manages the work by the teller performs a true / false judgment on the damaged ticket 100 deposited on the day by the teller on the superior terminal. .

  However, after the cashier inputs the ticket type of the damaged ticket 100 during the deposit process, that is, immediately after the completion of the processing shown in FIG. After approval, the counter may complete the deposit process. If the entire image 101 and the partial image 102 are acquired in the valuable medium processing apparatus 1, the timing for performing the authenticity determination is not particularly limited, and is set according to the operation for each bank.

  In addition, for example, at the stage where the depositing process of the damaged ticket 100 by the counter is completed, in exchange for the damaged ticket 100, normal money corresponding to the value of the damaged ticket 100 is paid to the customer. The normal money paid to the customer may be a form in which a banknote for withdrawal stored in the valuable medium processing apparatus 1 is paid out, or may be a banknote withdrawn from another money processing apparatus. I do not care. Since the withdrawal process by the valuable medium processing apparatus 1 or another money processing apparatus can be performed using the conventional technology, a detailed description is omitted, and the details of the authenticity determination of the damaged ticket 100 will be described below. To do.

  FIG. 1B is a diagram illustrating an example of a screen that is displayed when the superior uses the superior terminal to determine the authenticity of the damaged ticket 100. In this way, the entire image 101 and the partial image 102 acquired from the damaged ticket 100 are displayed on the upper side of the screen. In addition, an entire sample image 201 of the entire true banknote of this bill type and a partial sample image 202 obtained when an area corresponding to the partial image 102 is captured with the true banknote are displayed on the lower side. In addition, the entire image 101 on the screen displays a frame 103 indicating which area of the damaged ticket 100 the partial image 102 and the partial sample image 202 are. Note that the entire image 101 and the partial image 102 are read from the valuable medium processing apparatus 1 or the server in which they are stored and displayed on the superior terminal.

  In the upper part of the screen, the damaged ticket 100 or a management place number assigned to the deposit process including the damaged ticket 100 is displayed, and an arrow button capable of manually switching the image of the damaged ticket 100 is displayed on the right side. In the lower part of the screen, a button capable of manually switching between the front and back images of the damaged ticket 100 is displayed. Further, on the right side of the screen, information on the number of partial images 102 captured with the damaged ticket 100 is displayed, and a button capable of manually switching the displayed partial image 102 is displayed. In the example of FIG. 1B, in the damaged ticket 100, partial images 102 are acquired at a total of 12 positions on the front and back surfaces. It shows that one partial image 102 is displayed as a determination target image.

  On the screen, the superior visually checks the partial image 102 acquired from the damaged ticket 100 and the partial sample image 202 to be observed with the true banknote, and determines whether or not both match. If they match, press the match button. If they do not match, press the mismatch button. When the determination input is made, the display on the screen is automatically switched, and the partial image 102 to be confirmed next by the superior and the partial sample image 202 corresponding to the partial image 102 are displayed.

  In this way, when the superior finishes the process of visually confirming the partial image 102 and the partial sample image 202 sequentially displayed on the screen and determining whether or not they match, FIG. 1C shows. Thus, the screen which shows the authenticity determination result of the damaged ticket 100 is displayed. The left figure of FIG.1 (c) is an example of a screen when the determination result of all the partial images 102 determines with the damaged ticket 100 being a genuine note. Moreover, the right figure of FIG.1 (c) is an example of a screen when it determines with it being a fake ticket by the partial image 102 of one place among the partial images 102 acquired by 12 places.

  Upon confirming the authenticity determination result displayed on the screen, the superior presses the completion button on the screen to complete the authenticity determination process. If there is a partial image 102 in which the damaged ticket 100 is determined to be a fake ticket, the user can return to the display screen of the partial image 102 and the partial sample image 202 determined to be inconsistent by pressing the return button so that they can be reconfirmed. It has become. Then, the determination result can be corrected according to the result of reconfirmation.

  The authenticity determination performed by the valuable medium processing apparatus 1 is a determination by visual confirmation and also a determination of the damaged ticket 100 having a tear or a stain, so that the determination may be erroneous. Considering this, all partial images 102 are always determined. For example, when all the determinations are completed, if it is determined that there is a mismatch in only one of the 12 locations, the authenticity determination is made more accurate by reconfirming this one location. Can do.

  However, the authenticity determination method can be changed by setting. Specifically, if the partial image 102 and the partial sample image 202 do not coincide with each other while proceeding with the authenticity determination, the authenticity determination is performed without checking the remaining partial images 102. It can also be set to end.

  For example, when authenticity determination is performed in order to approve the deposit process by the counter in the business hours at the counter, priority is given to the time, and if it is determined that there is a mismatch at one location, the authenticity determination is terminated. In the case of performing authenticity determination after completion of the counter service, priority is given to determination accuracy so that authenticity determination is performed at all locations.

  It should be noted that information such as the low-resolution whole image 101, the high-resolution partial image 102, the determination result of each partial image 102, the authenticity determination result of the damaged ticket 100, and the like are associated with each other by the management number in the valuable medium. It is stored in the processing device 1 or the server.

  Next, a configuration example of a system including the valuable medium processing device 1 will be described. FIG. 2 is a block diagram showing a configuration example of a money handling system constructed between the headquarter 52 and the branch 51 of the bank.

Data 122c is managed.

  FIG. 4 is a diagram showing the types of data managed as the image data 122a and the damaged ticket data 122b. The image data 122a and the damaged ticket data 122b are managed in association with each other by a management number.

  The damaged ticket data 122b includes the ticket type information and value information input by the valuable medium processing device 1, the authenticity determination result of the damaged ticket 100 input by the superior terminal 8, and the processing history. As the processing history, for example, the identification information (counter ID) of the counter who processed the damaged ticket 100 using the valuable medium processing device 1, the date when the processing was performed, and the superior terminal 8 are used. Thus, the identification information (superior ID) of the superior who performed the authenticity determination of the damaged ticket 100 and the date on which the processing was performed are stored. In the valuable medium processing apparatus 1, user authentication is performed at the start of use of the apparatus, and the identification information of the counter is acquired from the information obtained by the authentication. Further, since the superior terminal 8 is individually assigned to each superior, the identification information of the superior can be obtained by specifying the superior terminal 8 during communication between the branch server 6 and the superior terminal 8. To get.

  The image data 122a includes a low-resolution whole image 101 and a high-resolution partial image 102. The low-resolution whole image 101 is, for example, a reflected image by visible light. Further, the high-resolution partial image 102 is an image obtained by imaging a feature set for a ticket type, in addition to a reflected image and a transmitted image obtained by irradiating light of a predetermined wavelength such as ultraviolet light or infrared light. The reflection image and the transmission image captured by changing the position of the light source or the image sensor are included.

  The superior terminal 8 is configured by a computer device and includes a control unit 110 and an operation display unit 140. When the authenticity terminal 8 determines whether the damaged ticket 100 is true or false, data communication is performed between the control unit 110 and the branch server 6, and the entire image 101 managed in the damaged ticket management database 122; All the partial images 102 stored in association with the whole image 101 can be displayed on the operation display unit 140. Similarly, the control unit 110 includes the entire sample image 201 managed in the authenticity determination database 121 of the branch server 6 and all the partial sample images 202 stored in association with the entire sample image 201. Can be displayed on the operation display unit 140. At this time, the control unit 110 recognizes the correspondence between the partial image 102 and the partial sample image 202 and displays the corresponding partial image 102 and partial sample image 202 side by side. In the superior terminal 8, the operation display unit 140 can input a determination result indicating whether the partial image 102 and the partial sample image 202 match. With the above function, the superior can use the superior terminal 8 to determine the authenticity of the damaged ticket 100 by visual confirmation, as described with reference to FIGS. 1B and 1C. it can.

  When the authenticity determination is performed in the superior terminal 8, each determination result determined for each partial image 102 is transmitted from the superior terminal 8 to the branch server 6 and registered in the authenticity determination data 122c. Moreover, the determination result which determined the authenticity of the damaged ticket 100 is also registered into the damaged ticket data 122b. When the ticket type, value, and authenticity determination result regarding the damaged ticket 100 are required, the damaged ticket data 122b is referred to, and when it is desired to check the determination result individually determined for each partial image 102, the authenticity determination data. Reference is made to 122c.

  The superior terminal 8 has a function of assisting the authenticity determination performed by the superior, and the auxiliary function can be used by setting. In the setting using the auxiliary function, the control unit 110 of the superior terminal 8 uses a pattern matching technique or the like between the partial image 102 acquired from the damaged ticket 100 and the partial sample image 202 corresponding thereto. Perform image matching processing. Then, the degree of coincidence of both images is displayed on the screen.

  FIG. 5 is a diagram illustrating an example of a screen when performing authenticity determination with a setting using an auxiliary function. In the valuable medium processing device 1, a transmission image and a reflection image are acquired so that it can be visually confirmed that there is a clearance in a region with a clearance known as a watermark. Then, as shown in FIG. 5, at the time of authenticity determination of the area 103 including the clearance, the transmission image 102a and the reflection image 102b acquired from the damaged ticket 100 are displayed on the upper side of the screen, and below the corresponding part A transmission image 202a and a reflection image 202b, which are sample images, are displayed. At this time, information 203 indicating the degree of coincidence is displayed between the two images as auxiliary information for determining whether or not the corresponding upper and lower images match. The superior can refer to the auxiliary information displayed during the visual confirmation of the upper and lower images.

  In addition, although the aspect which preserve | saves the low-resolution whole image 101 which imaged the damaged ticket 100 whole and the high-resolution partial image 102 which imaged the characteristic part utilized for authenticity determination was shown, the image preservation | save method is this. It is not limited to. For example, as illustrated in FIG. 6, the image may be stored as one image 301 in which the low-resolution whole image 101 is combined with the high-resolution partial image 102. In this case, when the authenticity determination is performed by the superior terminal 8, the partial area corresponding to the partial image 102 may be enlarged and displayed from the composite image 301.

  Further, the screen display when the authenticity determination is performed by the superior terminal 8 is not limited to the mode in which the entire image 101 and the partial image 102 are displayed as shown in FIGS. 1 and 5. For example, the upper terminal 8 may display only the partial image 102 and the partial sample image 202 without displaying the entire image 101 and the entire sample image 201.

  Further, the upper terminal 8 may be configured to display the image 401 shown in FIG. 7 instead of the entire image 101 of the damaged ticket 100. The image 401 shown in FIG. 7 is an image in which only the area from which the partial image 102 has been acquired is left and other areas are filled with a single color, so that the position and content of the partial image 102 to be confirmed can be easily recognized. it can. If the image stored in the branch server 6 as well as the display on the superior terminal 8 is the image 401 shown in FIG. 7, the pixel information of the original image is unnecessary in the area other than the partial image 102. Data capacity required for image storage can be reduced. Further, in the images shown in FIGS. 6 and 7, since the plurality of partial images 102 are combined into one image, it is not necessary to store the plurality of partial images 102 in association with each other, and image management becomes easy.

  Next, the processing flow of the damaged ticket 100 performed in the money handling system including the branch 51 and the head office 52 will be described. FIG. 8 is a diagram for explaining an outline of processing performed in the branch 51 and the headquarters 52. FIG. 8 shows processing related to image data including the entire image 101 and the partial image 102 and processing performed on the actual damaged ticket 100.

  First, the counter staff puts the actual damaged ticket 100 into the valuable medium processing apparatus 1 and starts processing (step S11). In the valuable medium processing device 1, the damaged ticket 100 is imaged by the image acquisition unit 11, and a feature portion is cut out and resolution conversion is performed by the image processing unit 13 from the captured image, so that the entire image 101 and the partial image 102 are obtained. Obtained (step S12). The entire image 101 and the partial image 102 are stored in the storage unit 20 as image data 22a.

  When information such as a damaged ticket image is displayed on the operation display unit 40 in a state in which the damaged ticket 100 is stored in the temporary holding unit 31, the counter person who has confirmed this operates the operation display unit 40 to operate the damaged ticket. Damaged ticket data such as 100 ticket types and values are input (step S13). The input damaged ticket data 22 b is stored in the storage unit 20 as damaged ticket management data 22. When the teller inputs necessary data and completes the deposit processing of the damaged ticket 100, the damaged ticket 100 stored in the temporary holding unit 31 is paid out and a predetermined banknote assigned to the damaged ticket 100 is delivered. It is stored in the storage unit 32 (step S14).

  When the damaged ticket depositing process in the valuable medium processing device 1 is completed, the image data 22a stored in the storage unit 20 is transmitted to the branch server 6 (step S15) and registered in the image data 122a of the damaged ticket management database 122. (Step S20). Similarly, the damaged ticket data 22 b is also transmitted from the valuable medium processing device 1 to the branch server 6 and registered in the damaged ticket data 122 b of the damaged ticket management database 122.

  After the payment process for the damaged ticket 100 is completed, the superior terminal 8 starts the authenticity determination process for the damaged ticket 100. First, the control unit 110 of the superior terminal 8 is registered from the branch server 6 in the whole image 101 and the partial image 102 of the damaged ticket 100 registered in the damaged ticket management database 122 and the authenticity determination database 121. The whole sample image 201 and the partial sample image 202 corresponding to the damaged ticket 100 are received and displayed on the operation display unit 140 (step S31). The superior performs a process of comparing the partial image 102 and the partial sample image 202 displayed on the operation display unit 140 to determine whether or not they match (step S32). The result of the determination process of each partial image 102 by the superior is transmitted from the superior terminal 8 to the branch server 6 and registered in the authenticity determination data 122 c of the damaged ticket management database 122. The authenticity determination result of the damaged ticket 100 based on the determination result of each partial image 102 is also registered in the damaged ticket data 122b of the branch server 6.

  After it is determined by the superior that the damaged ticket 100 is a genuine note, further confirmation work is performed on the value of the damaged ticket 100 and the approval process of the superior for the damaged ticket depositing process is completed. On the other hand, if it is determined that the damaged ticket 100 is a fake ticket, the actual damaged ticket 100, the ticket type entered by the counter, etc. are confirmed and corrected as necessary. Approval by the superior will be performed again.

  The actual damaged ticket 100 approved by the superior is collected from the valuable medium processing apparatus 1 at a predetermined timing (step S41) and transferred to the head office 52. At this time, the barcode printer 7 prints a barcode including a management number for identifying the damaged ticket 100 to be collected (step S42).

  The actual damaged ticket 100 collected at the branch 51 is transferred from the branch 51 to the headquarters 52 together with the barcode printed by the barcode printer 7, and reception processing at the headquarters 52 is started. In the headquarters 52, when receiving the damaged ticket 100, the barcode reader 53 reads the barcode brought in with the damaged ticket 100, and information such as a management number included in the barcode is input to the headquarter terminal 54. (Step S51). Thereafter, the headquarter 52 confirms the damaged ticket 100 and performs processing related to the actual damaged ticket, such as replacement with a bankable banknote corresponding to the value (step S52). At this time, the headquarter 52 can use the management number read from the barcode to receive the damaged ticket data 122b in which the ticket type and value of the damaged ticket 100 are registered from the branch server 6 and use them. In this way, the processing of the actual damaged ticket at the headquarters 52 is completed.

  While the actual damaged ticket 100 is processed, the headquarter server 56 starts processing to receive the entire image 101 and the partial image 102 of the damaged ticket 100 using the management number read from the barcode. First, the head office server 56 transmits a signal requesting image data related to the damaged ticket 100 together with the management number to the branch server 6 (step S61).

  The branch server 6 that has received the management number and the image request signal reads the entire image 101 and the partial image 102 managed as the image data 122a from the damaged ticket management database 122 based on the received management number (step S62). It transmits to the headquarters server 56 (step S63).

  The headquarter server 56 stores the entire image 101 and the partial image 102 received from the branch server 6 (step S64) and verifies whether the stored image is normal (step S65). When the stored image data is damaged as a result of the verification, the headquarter server 56 requests the branch server 6 to retransmit the damaged image. Then, this process (steps S61 to S65) is repeated until it is verified that all the images have been normally stored.

  When it is verified that there is no problem in the data of the whole image 101 and the partial image 102 stored in the headquarter server 56, the headquarter server 56 transmits a completion notification signal to the branch server 6 (step S66).

  When the branch server 6 recognizes that all the images related to the damaged ticket 100 have been normally stored in the headquarter server 56 by the completion notification signal from the headquarter server 56, the branch server 6 determines from the image data 122a of the damaged ticket management database 122 that the headquarter server All the images moved to 56 are deleted (step S70). As with the entire image 101 and the partial image 102, the damaged ticket data 122b and the authenticity determination data 122c are also moved from the branch server 6 to the headquarter server 56.

  In this way, by printing a barcode including a management number for managing the damaged ticket 100 and transferring it together with the actual damaged ticket 100, the processing relating to the damaged ticket 100 can be performed easily and reliably. In addition, as the damaged ticket 100 is transferred, the related data such as the entire image 101 and the partial image 102 are moved from the branch 51 to the headquarters 52, so that the data related to the place where the damaged ticket 100 is managed is stored. State. Since the same data is not stored in multiple locations, the data capacity of the entire system can be reduced. In addition, when data is moved, since it is confirmed that the data is normally stored in the destination headquarter server 56, the data is deleted in the branch server 6 of the movement source. There is no loss.

  Since the image of the damaged ticket 100 is an image of banknotes, it is desirable to handle in consideration of security. For this reason, for example, immediately after an image is acquired by capturing the damaged ticket 100 with the valuable medium processing device 1, the image data is encrypted, and the encrypted data is transmitted and received between the devices. Also good. For example, image data encrypted only for a person who has a certain authority, such as a superior who makes a determination of authenticity by referring to the partial image 102 at the branch 51, or a person in charge of processing the damaged ticket 100 at the headquarters 52. If key data for decrypting is added so that the contents of the image can be viewed and confirmed, security relating to the image data can be ensured.

  In the present embodiment, the partial image 102 acquired by the valuable medium processing device 1 and the partial sample image 202 acquired by a true banknote are displayed on the superior terminal 8 to determine the authenticity of the damaged ticket 100. However, the terminal that performs the authenticity determination is not limited to the superior terminal 8. For example, an aspect in which authenticity determination is performed using the operation display unit 40 of the valuable medium processing device 1 may be performed, or an authenticity determination may be performed using the branch server 6. When authenticity determination is performed using the valuable medium processing device 1, the entire image 101 and the partial image 102 stored as the image data 22a in the damaged ticket management data 22 of the storage unit 20 may be used. In addition, the authenticity determination database 121 including the entire sample image 201 and the partial sample image 202 is not limited to the mode managed by the branch server 6, but is a mode managed in the superior terminal 8 or the valuable medium processing apparatus 1. It doesn't matter. For example, if the authenticity determination database 121 is managed in the valuable medium processing apparatus 1, it is possible to perform all the processes from the imaging of the damaged ticket 100 to the authenticity determination by the valuable medium processing apparatus 1 alone.

  As described above, according to the valuable medium processing device 1 according to the present embodiment, the partial image 102 obtained by capturing the characteristic portion that can be used for the authenticity determination of the banknote with the damaged ticket 100 at a high resolution, and corresponding to this. Since the partial sample image 202 is displayed on the terminal, it is possible to easily and accurately determine the authenticity of the damaged ticket 100 in a short time by comparing both images and visually confirming whether or not they match. it can.

  Moreover, in the valuable medium processing apparatus 1, since the feature part that can be used for authenticity determination based on the ticket type of the damaged ticket 100 is automatically acquired and stored as a high-resolution image, By confirming the acquired features in order, the authenticity of the damaged ticket 100 can be determined accurately and quickly.

  In addition, when the counter staff inserts the damaged ticket 100 into the valuable medium processing device 1 of the damaged ticket 100, the ticket type and authenticity are confirmed, and then the superior performs the authenticity determination. As a result, the authenticity determination of the damaged ticket 100 can be ensured.

  In addition, since only the feature portion that can be used for authenticity determination is stored as a high-resolution image, the data capacity can be reduced compared to the case where the whole is stored as a high-resolution image. Since the image is moved with the actual movement of the damaged ticket 100, the image can be stored only in a place where the damaged ticket is managed, and the data capacity of the entire system can be reduced. Further, when moving image data, it is confirmed that the image has been properly stored in the destination, and then the source image is deleted. Therefore, loss of the image due to communication failure or the like can be avoided.

  As described above, the present invention is a useful technique for a financial institution such as a bank to determine the authenticity of a damaged ticket and manage image data related to the damaged ticket.
