The gate 206 and the transport path 207 are controlled. Next, the operation in such a configuration will be described.

First, the operation of loading bills into the cash cassette 3 by the cashier 2 for cash accounting will be described. For example, as shown in FIG. 1, the cash cassette 3 is set in the cash handling machine 2 for cash, and bills P to be loaded in the cash cassette 3 are inserted into the deposit port 112. It is assumed that a predetermined amount of banknotes is stored in the denomination stackers 201a to 201e in advance.

When the cash cassette 3 is set in the cash handling machine 2, the control unit 21 of the cash handling machine 2 will be described.
0 and the control unit 99 of the cash cassette 3 are connected via the interfaces 101 and 212, and the control unit 210 is connected by returning a connection permission signal in response to a connection request signal from the control unit 99.

Using the keyboard of the operation unit 113, the information of the banknotes to be loaded into the cash cassette 3 (banknote loading information), for example, the number of denominations of the banknotes to be loaded is specified. Then, when the processing start key in the operation unit 113 is pressed, the banknotes P inserted into the deposit port 112 are sequentially taken out one by one by the takeout mechanism 114 and sent to the first inspection unit 115. The first inspection unit 115 discriminates the denomination and the fitness of the sent bill, and sends the discrimination result to the control unit 210.

The banknotes determined to be genuine by the first inspection unit 115 are transferred to the conveyance paths 116 and 118 and the denomination classification unit 11.
It is sent to the cash cassette 3 via 9 and loaded therein. At this time, the control unit 210 counts the number of stored banknotes in the cash cassette 3 for each denomination according to the determination result of the first inspection unit 115.

When the counted number of stored denominations reaches the number of denominations designated in advance by the operation unit 113, the control unit 210 determines the denomination according to the discrimination result of the first inspection unit 115. By controlling the sorting unit 119, bills thereafter are not stored in the cash cassette 3, but the conveyed bills are classified into denominations and guided to the corresponding denomination stackers 201a to 201e. At this time, the control unit 210 counts the number of stored banknotes in the denomination stackers 201a to 201e for each denomination in accordance with the determination result of the first inspection unit 115. Thereby, the deposit port 11
The bills are all stored in the apparatus without being left in the banknote 2 and managed by the apparatus.

When all the banknotes P in the depositing port 112 have been taken in and the counted number of banknotes stored in the cash cassette 3 has not reached the predetermined number of denominations, the controller 210 Determines that the amount of bills set in the deposit opening 112 is not enough, takes out the insufficient bills from the denomination stackers 201a to 201e, and stores them in the cash cassette 3.

That is, when it is determined that all of the banknotes P in the depositing port 112 have been taken in and the number of stored bills has not yet reached the designated number of denominations, the control unit 210 controls the takeout mechanisms 202a to 202e. Thereby, the banknotes in the denomination stackers 201a to 201e are sequentially taken out one by one, and the transport path 203, the second inspection unit 204, the transport path 20
5, the cash cassette 3 is loaded via the gate 206 and the denomination classification section 119.

At this time, the control unit 210 controls the second inspection unit 2
The number of stored banknotes in the cash cassette 3 is counted for each denomination in accordance with the denomination determination result of 04. In this case, the counting is continuously performed in such a manner as to be accumulated in the count value of the denomination at the time of the loading process from the deposit port 112 performed first. Then, when the counted number of stored denominations reaches the number of denominations specified in advance by the operation unit 113, the control unit 210
Stops the operation of the unloading mechanisms 202a to 202e, and ends the process of loading the cash cassette 3.

As a result, the specified number of banknotes can be loaded into the cash cassette 3, and even when a large number of banknotes are loaded into the cash cassette 3, the banknotes are set in the deposit port 112 a plurality of times. Work can be omitted.

When the loading of the bills into the cash cassette 3 is completed, the control unit 210 of the cash handling machine 2 for cashing is
The counted number of stored sheets of each denomination is stored in the data memory 211 and transmitted to the control unit 99 of the cash cassette 3 via the interfaces 212 and 101. Thereby, the control unit 99 causes the data memory 100 to store the denomination and the number of stored banknotes stored in the cash cassette 3.

In this case, each time a bill passes through the first inspecting unit 115 or the second inspecting unit 204 and is stored in the cash cassette 3 in real time, not after the completion of loading of the bills, The stored number data may be transmitted from the control unit 210 to the control unit 99 and stored in the data memory 100.

The stackers 201a to 201e are classified by money.
Only the banknotes stored in advance in the cash cassette 3
Can also be loaded into In this case, after the number of banknotes to be loaded is designated by the operation unit 113 and the process start key is pressed, the take-out mechanisms 202a to 202e operate according to the designated contents, and thereafter, the same operation as described above is performed. The designated number of bills is loaded into the cash cassette 3, and the loaded contents are stored in the data memory 100.

Next, a description will be given of the operation of replenishing bills into, for example, the automatic teller machine 1a by the cash cassette 3. That is, the cash cassette 3 loaded with a predetermined number of bills by the cash handling machine 2 for cash as described above is set at a predetermined position in the automatic teller machine 1a. At this time, the main controller 31 of the automatic teller machine 1a and the controller 99 of the cash cassette 3 are connected via the interfaces 44 and 101, and the main controller 31 is connected to a connection request signal from the controller 99. The connection is established by returning the permission signal. Thereby, the control unit 99 reads data such as the denomination and the number of banknotes stored in the cash cassette 3 stored in the data memory 100 and transmits the data to the main control unit 31.

Then, the main controller 31 reads out the number of stored banknotes of the corresponding denomination from the RAM 39 and compares it with the appropriate cash balance. If this comparison results in a shortage of cash balance,
The replenishment of the shortage amount is determined, and a replenishment instruction for the shortage amount is transmitted to the control unit 99. As a result, the banknotes corresponding to the shortage amount are sent out from the cash cassette 3 and replenished to the safes in the automatic teller machine 1a.

When the shortage amount is replenished by this replenishment processing, the main control unit 31 transmits a loading end signal to the control unit 99, and also transmits the machine number, the cash balance of each safe, and the number of sheets stored by denomination. Transmit. Thereby, the control unit 99
The storage denomination and the number of cash cassettes 3 stored in the data memory 100 are updated in accordance with the replenishment contents,
In addition, the data memory 100 stores the machine number, the cash balance of each safe, and the number of sheets stored for each denomination. This completes the bill replenishment process.

According to the cash handling machine for accounting as described above, there are provided denomination stackers 201a to 201e in which bills are stored in denominations in advance. When the bill set in the mouth 112 alone is less than the amount to be loaded into the cash cassette 3, the desired number of bills can be loaded by replenishing the bills in the stackers 201a to 201e by denomination. Therefore, it is not necessary to set the bills in a plurality of times as in the related art, and the operator does not have to take time and is very convenient.

In the above embodiment, the case where the present invention is applied to a cash handling machine for handling bills is described. However, the present invention is not limited to this. For example, a cash handling machine for handling coins and the like may be used. The same can be applied to
