Since the deposit reject coin is discharged to the region 31 of the coin withdrawal port 22, a dedicated deposit reject port for receiving the deposit reject coin is not provided in the money depositing / dispensing apparatus 10 separately from the coin withdrawal port 22.

  Next, the coin processing by the coin processing unit 15 in the money depositing and dispensing apparatus 10 of the first embodiment will be described.

"Deposit processing"
At the start of one transaction, when a deposit operation is input to a host machine (not shown) with a coin inserted into the coin deposit slot 21, the host machine outputs a deposit processing signal to the money deposit / withdrawal apparatus 10. Then, the money deposit / withdrawal apparatus 10 starts the deposit process by the coin processing unit 15. That is, first, the money depositing / dispensing apparatus 10 swings the chute 87 of the discharge allocating unit 81 to the left side so that the introduced coin is discharged only to the region 31 of the coin dispensing port 22. Then, the coins in the coin deposit slot 21 are separated one by one by the belt conveyor 56 and a separation roller (not shown), fed to the deposit coin transport unit 53, and identified by the coin identification unit 61 while being transported by the deposit coin transport unit 53. On the basis of the identification result of the coin identification unit 61, the deposit rejected coin, which cannot be identified, is dropped from the reject hole 63 by the opening / closing reject unit 62 of the discharge mechanism 82, and the left end of the coin dispensing port 22 is discharged by the discharge distribution unit 81. The deposit reject process to be discharged to the area 31 is performed. Thereby, the deposit reject coin is accommodated in the region 31 at the left end of the coin dispensing port 22, and the operator can take out the deposit reject coin from the region 31 of the coin dispensing port 22.

  On the other hand, the received coins identified as acceptable based on the identification result of the coin identifying unit 61 are moved as they are to the downstream side of the deposited coin transport unit 53 by the open / close reject unit 62 in the closed state. As a result, the received coins are sorted by the corresponding ones of the sorting holes 65 to 70 and stored in the corresponding ones of the coin dispensing storage units 71 to 76. That is, if it is a 1-yen coin, it is stored in the coin dispensing storage part 71 through the sorting hole 65, if it is a 50-yen coin, it is stored in the coin dispensing storage part 72 through the sorting hole 66, and if it is a 5-yen coin, it is sorted out. 67, the coins are stored in the coin dispensing storage unit 73. If the coins are 100 yen coins, the coins are stored in the coin dispensing storage unit 74 through the sorting hole 68. If the coins are 10 yen coins, they are stored in the coin dispensing storage unit 75 through the sorting hole 69. If it is a 500 yen coin, it is stored in the coin dispensing storage unit 76 through the sorting hole 70.

  When all the coins inserted into the coin deposit / withdrawal port 21 are accommodated in either the region 31 of the coin / withdrawal port 22 or the coin withdrawal / collection storage units 71 to 76, the coin deposit / withdrawal apparatus 10 does not show the processing result. Output to the higher-level machine. Then, the host machine displays a result of counting the coins accepted in the current deposit process and a display for prompting a selection operation for canceling the deposit or confirming the deposit.

  In response to the above question of whether to cancel payment or confirm payment, if the operator inputs the confirmation operation input, which is the confirmation of payment input, to the higher-level machine, the higher-level machine accepts this payment process. The count value of the coins is confirmed and stored, and the depositing process by the money depositing / dispensing apparatus 10 is ended.

"Payment return processing"
On the other hand, in response to the above-mentioned question of whether to cancel the payment or confirm the payment, if the operator inputs a deposit cancellation selection operation, which is a cancellation operation input, to the higher-level machine, the higher-level machine A return command signal for returning the same amount of coins as return coins is output to the money depositing and dispensing apparatus 10. Then, the money depositing / dispensing device 10 first swings the chute 87 of the discharge sorting unit 81 to the right so that the introduced coin is discharged only to the right end region 33 of the coin dispensing port 22. . Next, a return coin having the same amount as the amount received is fed out from the coin withdrawal storage units 71 to 76 of the release mechanism 82 while being counted by the respective delivery mechanisms 79, and the coins are similarly dispensed by the release distribution unit 81 of the release mechanism 82. Deposit / return processing to be discharged to the right end region 33 of the withdrawal port 22 is performed. Thereby, the return coin having the same amount as the deposited amount is accommodated in the right end region 33 of the coin dispensing port 22, and the operator can take out the return coin from the region 33 of the coin dispensing port 22.

"Withdrawal processing"
At the time of the withdrawal process, the host machine outputs a withdrawal command signal to the money depositing / withdrawing apparatus 10 for dispensing a coin having a predetermined withdrawal amount as a withdrawal coin. Then, the money depositing / dispensing apparatus 10 first sets the chute 87 of the discharge allocating unit 81 along the vertical direction so that the introduced coin is discharged only to the central region 32 of the coin dispensing port 22. Next, a withdrawal coin of a predetermined withdrawal amount is fed out while being counted by the respective dispensing mechanisms 79 from the coin dispensing storage units 71 to 76 of the release mechanism 82, and coins are dispensed by the discharge distribution unit 81 of the release mechanism 82. A withdrawal process for discharging to the central region 32 of the mouthpiece 22 is performed.
