<Configuration of money handling apparatus 100>
A money handling apparatus 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. FIG. 1 is an external perspective view of the money handling apparatus 100 according to the embodiment. FIG. 2 is an internal configuration diagram of the money handling apparatus 100. FIG. 3 is a functional block diagram of the money handling apparatus 100. In addition, although the money processing apparatus 100 demonstrated by this embodiment is a banknote processing apparatus, the money processing apparatus which concerns on this invention is not restricted to this, A coin processing apparatus may be sufficient.

  The money handling apparatus 100 has a deposit function, a withdrawal function, a loading (replenishment) function, and a collection function. The deposit function is a function for storing money received from a customer in the apparatus. The withdrawal function is a function for withdrawing money in the apparatus from the dispensing unit (withdrawal port) in order to deliver money to the customer. The loading function is a function for replenishing the money handling apparatus 100 with money. The recovery function is a function for recovering the money in the apparatus outside the apparatus in order to appropriately maintain the amount of money in the apparatus. The collection of money includes a total collection for collecting all the money in the device (case 1 described later) and a remaining collection for collecting some money in the device and collecting other money. .

  As shown in FIGS. 1 to 3, the money handling apparatus 100 includes a housing 1, a receiving unit 2, a transport unit 3, an identification unit 4, storage units 5 a, 5 b, 5 c, 5 d, and 5 e, and a collection. The method setting part 6, the control part 7, the collection | recovery part 8, the throwing-out part 9, the input part 10, the communication part 11, the memory | storage part 12, and the interpretation part 13 are provided. Hereinafter, each component will be described.

  The receiving unit 2 is configured to receive money in the housing 1. As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the receiving unit 2 includes a bill feeding unit 2 a that can feed bills. This banknote feeding unit 2a is a banknote receiving unit that receives banknotes from the outside and feeds them one by one. Note that the bill feeding unit may be a bill cassette that houses bills therein and feeds out the stored bills.

  The transport unit 3 is configured to transport the money received by the receiving unit 2. More specifically, the banknote fed out from the banknote handling unit 2a and received in the housing 1 is transported to a predetermined transport destination. For example, the conveyance unit 3 conveys banknotes to the storage units 5a to 5e, the external rejection unit 31, the internal rejection unit 32, or the like. The transport unit 3 transports the banknotes stored in the storage units 5a to 5e to the dispensing unit 9 or the collection / stacking unit 33 (collection unit 8).

  The identification unit 4 includes various sensors (such as a magnetic sensor, a fluorescence sensor, a metal thread sensor, a thickness sensor, and an image sensor) and is configured to identify the type of money conveyed by the conveyance unit 3. Here, the “type” of money is the type of currency, denomination, true / false, old and new (new ticket / old ticket), correct / loss (correct ticket / loss ticket), and the like. The type of currency is, for example, a currency unit such as yen, US dollar, euro, British pound or the like. The type of currency may be a home currency and a foreign currency (for example, euro and other currencies).

  In the case of euro banknotes, the type of banknotes may be “category”. This category is a classification when euro banknotes are classified according to their properties. According to the five divisions defined by the European Central Bank (ECB), banknotes are classified into two types, genuine or fake, within the range of identification capabilities of a given banknote processing device. Called a fake ticket. The genuine bills are further classified into two types according to the degree of damage, and those that do not hinder use are called genuine bills, and those that significantly damage the use are called spoiled bills. Therefore, the five classifications include a genuine note and a genuine note, a true note and a damaged note, a fake note, a genuine / indeterminate ticket that cannot be clearly determined by the bill processing device, and a reject ticket.

  The storage units 5 a to 5 e store the money transported by the transport unit 3. For example, the storage units 5a to 5e store the banknotes identified by the identification unit 4 for each denomination. The storage units 5a to 5e are configured to be able to feed out stored banknotes one by one. The fed banknotes are conveyed by the conveyance unit 3 to the collection unit 8, the dispensing unit 9, and the like.

  In addition, you may use at least any one among the accommodating parts 5a-5e in order to collect | recover banknotes. For example, the storage unit 5e may be used for overflow of the collection unit 8. In this case, when the collection unit 8 is full, banknotes collected thereafter are conveyed to the storage unit 5e and stored.

  The collection unit 8 stores money to be collected. More specifically, the collection unit 8 collects money stored in the storage units 5a to 5e. As shown in FIG. 2, the collection unit 8 includes an attachment unit 8a and a storage bag (pouch) 8b. The attachment portion 8a is configured to be capable of attaching the storage bag 8b with a fixing pin or the like. The storage bag 8b is a flexible and sealable storage bag. The storage bag 8b is made of a soft material such as vinyl or cloth, and can be folded small according to the amount of money stored.

  The collection unit 8 may have a cassette type gold box (not shown) instead of the storage bag 8b. This cassette type gold box may be a recycle type capable of feeding out stored banknotes or a dedicated storage type in which stored banknotes cannot be fed out.

  The storage bag 8b (or cassette type gold box) can be attached to and detached from the housing 1 via the attachment portion 8a. Further, in order to store the money to be collected, the collection unit 8 may have a box placed in the housing 1 or a drawer slidably attached to the housing 1.

  The collection unit 8 may include a plurality of storage bags 8b (or a plurality of cassette-type gold boxes). In this case, the number of storage bags 8b (or cassette-type gold boxes) included in the collection unit 8 is smaller than the number of types of money identified by the identification unit 4. In addition, when the collection | recovery part 8 has both a storage bag and a cassette type gold box, the total of those numbers is less than the number of the types of money. Therefore, as will be described in detail later, it is necessary to set a collection method for each type of money.

  As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the dispensing unit 9 is configured to throw out the money stored in the storage units 5 a to 5 e to the outside of the housing 1.

  The input unit 10 is configured to accept an operator's instruction. For example, as shown in FIG. 1, the input unit 10 is a touch panel attached to the housing 1 and receives instructions from an operator and displays various messages, results of money processing, and the like. The input unit 10 is not limited to a touch panel, and may be buttons, a keyboard, a card reader, or the like.

  The communication unit 11 is provided to communicate with an external information processing apparatus. This information processing apparatus is, for example, a money settlement apparatus disposed in a management apparatus, a checkout counter, or the like of the money handling apparatus 100. The communication unit 11 is configured to receive setting information used by the collection method setting unit 6 (described later) to set a money collection method from an external information processing apparatus.

  The storage unit 12 includes a non-volatile memory (ROM, HDD, SSD, etc.) that stores various programs and data for controlling the money handling apparatus 100, and a volatile memory (RAM) that serves as a program load area and a work area during program execution. Etc.).

  In addition, the memory | storage part 12 may memorize | store the information (a denomination, the quantity according to loss, etc.) regarding the money accommodated in storage part 5a-5e and the collection | recovery part 8. FIG. Moreover, the memory | storage part 12 may memorize | store the processing content which the money processing apparatus 100 performed. The processing contents are processing date and time, processing contents, money transport destination, processed money denominations and correct numbers, operator ID, and the like.

  The interpretation unit 13 grasps the money collection method based on the money collection pattern number input from the operator via the input unit 10. More specifically, the interpretation unit 13 refers to a money collection pattern list (described later) stored in the storage unit 12 and grasps details of the collection method (collection destination, collection category, collection order) from the money collection pattern number. Then, the collection method setting unit 6 is notified.

  The collection method setting unit 6 sets a money collection method for each type of money identified by the identification unit 4. Here, the “money collection method” refers to a method of collecting money stored in the storage units 5a to 5e, and specifically refers to a money collection destination, a collection category, and a collection order. In this embodiment, the collection destination is the collection unit 8 (storage bag 8b) or the dispensing unit 9.

  The recovery category is exchange recovery, mixed recovery or selective recovery. In “exchange collection”, the collection unit 8 (the storage bag 8b) is sequentially attached to the inside of the housing 1 to collect money for each type of money. For example, when the type of money is currency (home currency / foreign currency), the following is performed. First, after the money handling apparatus 100 collects the home currency in the first storage bag, the operator takes out the first storage bag from the housing 1. Next, when the operator installs a new second storage bag in the housing 1, the money handling apparatus 100 collects the foreign currency in the second storage bag. Thereafter, the operator takes out the second storage bag from the housing 1 and attaches a new third storage bag in the housing 1.

  In “mixed collection”, a plurality of types of money are collected in a mixed state in the collection unit 8 (or the dispensing unit 9). In “selective recovery”, when performing recovery, the operator selects one of exchange recovery and mixed recovery.

  The collection method setting unit 6 can designate at least one of a money collection destination, a collection classification, and a collection order by setting a money collection method. For example, the collection method setting unit 6 designates the collection unit 8 or the dispensing unit 9 as the collection destination. The collection method setting unit 6 designates exchange collection, mixed collection, or selective collection as the collection category. In addition, the collection method setting unit 6 designates a collection number (a number indicating what number is collected) as the collection order.

  When a plurality of types of money are collected at a predetermined collection destination, the collection method setting unit 6 can designate the collection order to the predetermined collection destination for each type. When the type of money is currency, the collection method setting unit 6 can specify a collection order to a predetermined collection destination for each currency. For example, after the local currency is collected in a predetermined collection destination (such as the dispensing unit 9), the foreign currency is collected in the predetermined collection destination. In this case, the control unit 7 controls the transport unit 3 so that the foreign currency is collected at the predetermined collection destination after the home currency is collected at the predetermined collection destination.

  The collection method setting unit 6 sets a money collection method based on an operator instruction received via the input unit 10. The collection method setting unit 6 may set a money collection method based on the setting information received by the communication unit 11. This setting information includes information for setting at least one of the collection destination, the collection category, and the collection order.

  The control unit 7 is configured to execute the program stored in the storage unit 12 and control the entire money handling apparatus 100. The control unit 7 controls the transport unit 3 so that the money stored in the storage units 5 a to 5 e is collected according to the money collection method set by the collection method setting unit 6.

  The collection method setting unit 6 may be realized by the control unit 7 executing a predetermined program.

  Next, with reference to FIGS. 4-8, the example of a screen displayed on the input part 10 in order for an operator to instruct | indicate a money collection method is demonstrated. Note that these screen examples show cases where the currency type is two types of currencies, the home currency and the foreign currency.

  When the operator clicks the collection method setting button from the main menu, the screen shown in FIG. 4 is displayed. When the operator clicks the button B1 on this screen, the screen of FIG. 5 is displayed. On this screen, the operator inputs the collection destination of the home currency and the foreign currency. In the example of FIG. 5, the collection destination 8 is set for both the home currency and the foreign currency collection destination by radio buttons.

  Note that when performing the collection process, the input unit 10 may display all or part of the screen of FIG. For example, when performing the collection process, the input unit 10 displays only the foreign currency portion of the screen of FIG. Thereby, when collecting, the operator can select any one of the collecting unit and the dispensing unit as the collecting destination of the foreign currency each time the collecting is performed.

  Next, when the operator clicks the button B2 on the screen of FIG. 4, the screen of FIG. 6 is displayed. On this screen, the operator inputs the collection category. In the example of FIG. 6, the collection category is set to exchange collection by a radio button. Note that the recovery category options presented to the operator are not limited to all three of the replacement recovery, the mixed recovery, and the selective recovery, and more generally at least any two of the replacement recovery, the mixed recovery, and the selective recovery. is there.

  Next, when the operator clicks the button B3 on the screen of FIG. 4, the screen of FIG. 7 is displayed. On this screen, the operator inputs the collection order. In the example of FIG. 7, the collection order of the home currency is set first and the collection order of the foreign currency is set second by the text input.

  Note that the above screen example is merely an example. For example, as shown in FIG. 8, the collection destination, the collection category, and the collection order may be input on one screen. Further, when the collection destinations of the home currency and the foreign currency are different, they may be grayed out so that the three collection buttons cannot be selected.

  Next, four examples according to the collection process by the money handling apparatus 100 will be described. In any of the embodiments, the euro is the home currency and the other currencies are the foreign currency.

<Example 1>
Example 1 will be described with reference to FIGS. 9 and 10. FIG. In this embodiment, the collection destination of both the home currency and the foreign currency is set in the collection unit 8, the collection category is set to exchange collection, the collection number of the home currency is set to 1, and the collection number of the foreign currency is set to 2. It is an example of the collection process when set.

  As shown in FIG. 9, before collection, the storage units 5a, 5b, 5c, 5d and 5e have 5 euros (EUR5), 10 euros (EUR10), 20 euros (EUR20), US dollars (USD) and British pounds (GBP). ) Are stored.

  First, the control unit 7 determines whether or not the collection button is clicked by the operator (step S11). The collection button is, for example, a button displayed on the input unit 10 of the touch panel. The collection button may be a button provided on the housing 1 or a button displayed on an external information processing apparatus that is communicably connected to the money handling apparatus 100 via the communication unit 11. It may be.

  When the collection button is clicked (S11: Yes), the control unit 7 collects the home currency in the storage bag 8b (pouch A) (step S12). More specifically, the control unit 7 controls the transport unit 3 so that the euro banknotes stored in the storage units 5a, 5b, and 5c are collected in the storage bag 8b.

  When the collection of the euro banknote as the home currency is completed, the input unit 10 displays a message prompting the operator to replace the storage bag 8b (for example, “Please replace the pouch”) (step S13). In this step, a screen explaining a pouch replacement method may be displayed.

  After displaying the message, the control unit 7 determines whether or not a new storage bag is attached (step S14). This determination is performed, for example, by detecting that the door of the housing 1 for the operator to access the collection unit 8 is opened and closed. Or you may perform determination by detecting that the accommodating part 8b was attached or detached with the sensor provided in the attachment part 8a. Alternatively, the storage unit replacement completion button may be displayed on the input unit 10, and it may be determined that a new storage bag is attached when the operator clicks the button.

  When it determines with the new storage bag having been attached (S14: Yes), the control part 7 collect | recovers the US dollar banknote and the British pound banknote which are other countries' currency in a new storage bag (pouch B) (step S15).

  When the collection of US dollar bills and British pound bills as foreign currencies is completed, the input unit 10 displays a message prompting the operator to replace the storage bag 8b (for example, “please replace the pouch”) (step). S16).

  After displaying the message, the control unit 7 determines whether or not a new storage bag is attached (step S17).

  As described above, in the first embodiment, the home currency is collected in the pouch A, and the foreign currency is collected in the pouch B. As described above, since the pouch is flexible, the pouch can be folded small even if the currency of another country (or the home currency) is small. Accordingly, it is possible to avoid occupying a fixed volume regardless of the amount of storage as in a cassette-type gold box, and it is possible to reduce the labor and cost of money conveyance. Furthermore, since the pouch can be sealed, it is possible to prevent unauthorized removal of money. In addition, once the pouch is opened, evidence of opening remains, so that unauthorized opening can be prevented.

<Example 2>
Next, Example 2 will be described with reference to FIG. The difference between Example 2 and Example 1 is that the collection category is set to mixed collection. The storage status of each currency before collection is the same as that in the first embodiment as shown in FIG.

  When the collection button is clicked, the control unit 7 collects the home currency in the pouch A as in the case of the first embodiment. When the collection of the euro banknote as the home currency is completed, the control unit 7 collects the US dollar banknote and the British pound banknote as the other country currency in the same pouch A.

<Example 3>
Next, Example 3 will be described with reference to FIG. In the present embodiment, the difference between the third embodiment and the first embodiment is that the collection category is set to selective collection. In addition, the storage situation of each currency before collection | recovery is the same as Example 1. FIG.

  In the present embodiment, when the collection button is clicked, the screen shown in FIG. Here, the operator selects whether to perform exchange recovery or mixed recovery. When the operator selects replacement collection, the steps after step S12 described in the first embodiment are executed. On the other hand, when the operator selects mixed recovery, the recovery process described in the second embodiment is executed. In this way, by allowing the operator to select a collection category, for example, it is possible to flexibly respond to a request from a customer or a security company (whether mixed collection is possible).

<Example 4>
A fourth embodiment will be described with reference to FIG. In this embodiment, the collection destination of the home currency is set to the collection unit 8, the collection destination of the foreign currency is set to the output unit 9, the collection number of the home currency is set to 1, and the collection number of the foreign currency is 2 It is an example of the collection process when set to. Note that the storage status of each currency before the collection is the same as that of the first embodiment as shown in FIG.

  When the collection button is clicked, the control unit 7 collects the home currency in the collection unit 8. When the collection of the euro banknote, which is the home currency, is completed, the control unit 7 collects (throws out) the US dollar banknote and the British pound banknote, which are the foreign currency, to the dispensing unit 9.

<Setting of money collection method by pattern number>
Next, the setting of the money collection method using the interpretation unit 13 will be described. FIG. 14 shows an example of the money collection pattern list. This money collection pattern list is stored in the storage unit 12. The money collection pattern list may be stored in a storage unit of an external information processing apparatus that is communicably connected to the money processing apparatus 100 and may be acquired via the communication unit 11.

  As described above, the interpretation unit 13 grasps the money collection method based on the money collection pattern number input by the operator. For example, when the operator inputs a pattern number (pattern No.) 1 via the input unit 10, the interpretation unit 13 refers to the money collection pattern list so that the collection destinations of the home currency and the foreign currency are both It is grasped that it is the collection unit 8, the collection classification is exchange collection, the collection number of the home currency is 1, and the collection number of the foreign currency is 2. Then, the interpretation unit 13 notifies the collection method setting unit 6 of the grasped money collection method. The collection method setting unit 6 sets a money collection method for each type of money according to the notification content from the interpretation unit 13.

  In the money collection pattern list of FIG. 14, pattern number 1 indicates the money collection method corresponding to the first embodiment. The pattern number 2 is different in the collection order from the pattern number 1 and collects the foreign currency after collecting the foreign currency. Pattern number 3 indicates a money collection method corresponding to the above-described second embodiment. Pattern number 4 is different from pattern number 3 in the collection order. Pattern number 5 indicates a money collection method corresponding to the above-described third embodiment. Pattern number 6 is different from pattern number 5 in the collection order.

  Pattern number 7 indicates a money collection method corresponding to the above-described fourth embodiment. In pattern number 8, the collection destination of the home currency is the dispensing unit 9, and the collection destination of the foreign currency is the collection unit 8.

  Pattern number 9 indicates a money collection method in which the collection destination of the home currency is fixed (collection unit 8), and the collection destination of another country currency can be selected every time the collection is made (collection unit 8 or dispensing unit 9). . In the case of this collection pattern, the collection method setting unit 6 sets a money collection method for collecting money to the collection unit 8 for the home currency, and collects money to the collection unit 8 for another country currency. A first money collection method or a second money collection method for collecting money is set in the dispensing unit 9. About the setting of the 1st money collection method or the 2nd money collection method, collection method setting part 6 sets up according to an operator's selection, when performing collection processing.
