The control unit 11 controls the bill depositing / dispensing machine 1 in accordance with a command from the main body control unit 106 of the apparatus and the state detection of the bill depositing / dispensing machine 1, and requires the state of the bill depositing / dispensing machine 1. In response to the request, it is sent to the main body control unit 106. Although the banknote transport path 5 is shown by a line in the figure, a switching gate is provided at the branch point of the transport path to transport the banknotes in one direction of the arrow, and the deposited banknote determination unit 3 and Money bill discriminating unit 10
The control unit 11 controls the conveyance based on the result of each of the above.

The details and operation of each constituent element 2 to 11 of this embodiment will be described below with reference to FIGS. 3 to 8.

The pay-in / pay-out port 2 has a shutter 26, and the shutter 26 is slid to open and close so that a user can take out a bill at the time of withdrawal and insert a bill at the time of withdrawal. The inserted banknotes are pressed against the feed roller 21 by the push plate 23, and are fed out by the rotation of the feed roller 21, and the two-sheet feeding is prevented by the gate roller that does not rotate in the feeding direction. In this way, the banknotes in the deposit / withdrawal port 2 are delivered to the banknote transport unit 5 and taken into the apparatus. In addition, the banknotes dispensed from the inside of the apparatus and the banknotes rejected for the reason that the banknotes cannot be discriminated at the time of deposit are sent between the stack roller 25 and the brush roller 24 via the banknote transport path 5 and continuously. The bills can be stored without being interfered with each other and can be taken out by the user.

The deposited bill discriminating unit 3 comprises a pair of rollers, and detects a displacement of the rollers when a bill is conveyed between the rollers to detect whether or not two bills are overlapped.
And a discrimination unit 32 that discriminates the denomination and authenticity of the bill by detecting printing of the bill with an image sensor or the like, and reports the discrimination result of each passing bill to the control unit 11.

The temporary storage 4 includes a stainless steel guide tape 43, a rotary drum 41 for winding the banknotes conveyed with the guide tape 43, a winding shaft 42 for winding only the guide tape 43, and a rotary drum. It is composed of an entrance roller 45 that guides the entrance of the bill to 41 and rotates together with the guiding tape 43, and a backup roller 44 facing the entrance roller 45. Rotating drum 4 supporting both ends of the guiding tape 43
1 and the take-up shaft 42 are connected to separate drive sources (not shown), and a torque limiter is interposed between the take-up shaft 42 and the drive source. Before the deposit transaction, the guide tape is wound around the winding shaft 42. When the deposited banknotes are taken into the temporary storage 4, the rotating drum 41 is rotated in the direction in which the guiding tape 43 is wound so that the traveling speed of the guiding tape 43 is almost the same as the entry speed of the banknotes, and the deposited banknotes are sequentially transferred. It is wound around the rotating drum 41. On the other hand, the winding shaft 42 is driven through a torque limiter so that tension is applied to the guide tape 43 by another drive source, that is, the guide tape 43 is not sagging. The bill is wound around the rotary drum 41 together with the bill. At this time, the bill wound on the rotary drum 41 is a bill whose denomination is discriminated by the deposit bill discriminating unit 3, and the control unit 11 monitors the entry of the bill into the temporary storage 4. , Stores denomination information for each sheet. When the deposit transaction for the bills stored in the temporary storage 4 is established, the rotating drum 41 is rotated in the opposite direction, and the winding shaft 42 is wound in the winding direction while applying tension to the guiding tape 43 via the torque limiter. The bills thus picked up are sent to the bill feeding path 5 in the reverse order of the time they were stored.

In this embodiment, one safe deposit box 6 is mounted, and as shown in FIG. 4, a rotating stack roller 61 driven by a gear from a drive source (not shown) outside the safe.
A stack mechanism is configured by the backup rollers 62 and 63 facing the stack roller 61, the brush roller 64 on the same axis as the backup roller 63, in which elastic members are radially arranged, and the stack guide 65. The banknotes conveyed in the direction of the arrow 69 are conveyed by the rotation of the stack roller 65, the rotation of the brush roller 64 pushes the incoming banknotes toward the stack guide 65 side to enter the banknotes, and the lower end of the stacked banknotes is brushed by the brush roller. While the bills 64 are pushed in a direction away from the stack guide 65, the bills are stored so that they do not interfere with each other. In addition, the stored bills are stored in a storage space surrounded by a bottom plate 68, a push plate 66, a bottom belt 67 suspended from the bottom plate 68 so as to support the lower face of the bill, and a stack guide 65. The push plate 66 and the bottom belt 67 move integrally in the storage space, and are stored by a drive source (not shown) outside the safe so that the incoming banknotes and the stored banknotes do not interfere with each other as the stored banknotes increase. The bills are controlled to move away from the stack guide 65.

In the present embodiment, one outgoing cash box 7 is mounted, and as shown in FIG. 5, a rotating feed roller 71 driven by a gear from a drive source (not shown) outside the cash box.
The backup roller 72 that rotates in opposition to the feed roller 71, the gate roller 73 that opposes the feed roller 71 and does not rotate in the feeding direction, and the separation guide 75 constitute a separation mechanism. Banknotes for withdrawal are aligned by a staff member in a storage space surrounded by a bottom plate 78, a pressing plate 76, a bottom belt 77 suspended so as to support the banknote lower surface on the upper surface of the bottom plate 78, and a separation guide 75. The bill on the front side is pressed against the feed roller 71 by the pressing leaf spring 70. The push plate 76 and the bottom belt 77 are integrally movable to move in the storage space.
The pressing leaf spring 70 moves the stored bills so that the fed-out bills apply a predetermined pressing force to the feed roller 71 as the stored bills decrease. The banknotes pressed against the feed roller 71 are delivered by the rotating feed roller 71 and do not rotate in the feeding direction.
In step 3, the sheets are conveyed one by one in the direction of arrow 79 while preventing the two sheets from being fed.

In this embodiment, one recycle box 8 is mounted, and the structure is shown in FIG. The recycle box 8 has the functions of the deposit box 6 for continuously storing the above-mentioned banknotes and the deposit box 7 for continuously separating and delivering the banknotes, and is a safe capable of storing and separating and delivering the banknote. A stack / feed roller 81 having the same shape as the mechanism, a backup roller 82 that rotates, a gate roller 83 that rotates in the stack direction and does not rotate in the feeding direction, and an elastic member that is on the same axis as the gate roller 83 and has a radial shape. A stacking / separating mechanism is constituted by the brush roller 84 arranged in the above position and the separating / stacking guide 85 movable during separation and stacking. Banknotes are stored in a storage space surrounded by a bottom plate 88, a push plate 86, a bottom belt 87 suspended above the bottom plate 88 so as to support the lower surface of the banknote, and a separation / stack guide 85. During the separating operation, the separating / stacking guide 85 moves to the position indicated by the broken line 85a, the pressing plate 86 and the bottom belt 87 are integrally moved in the storage space, and the pressing plate spring 80 causes the bills to be fed out. Moves the stored banknotes so that a predetermined pressing force is applied to the stack feed roller 81. The banknotes pressed against the stack feed roller 81 are fed by the rotating stack feed roller 81, and are fed one by one in the direction of arrow 89a while the gate roller 83, which does not rotate in the feeding direction, prevents the two bills from being fed. . During the stacking operation, the separation / stack guide 85 moves to the position shown by the solid line 85, and the push plate 86 and the bottom belt 87 move integrally in the storage space by a drive source (not shown) outside the safe. As the stored bills increase, the stored bills are controlled to move away from the separating / stacking guide 85 so that the incoming bills conveyed in the direction of arrow 89 do not interfere with the stored bills.

The reject store 9 has the same structure as the deposit box 6. Therefore, since a box used in a safe deposit box can be used in the reject box, it is highly versatile and can be manufactured at low cost. This is a special effect that can be applied to all banknote storages.

The loading / recovery box 12 has the same structure as the recycle box 8.

The withdrawal banknote discriminating section 10 discriminates the banknotes fed out from the withdrawal safe 7 and the recycle box 9 at the time of withdrawal transaction. In this embodiment, the withdrawal banknote 7 and the recycle box are described later. The 9 banknotes are classified for each denomination, and since it is not necessary to discriminate between the denomination and the authenticity and only two sheets are overlapped, the same as the two-sheet detecting section 31 of the deposit banknote discriminating section 3 described above. Of a pair of rollers, the displacement of the rollers when a bill is conveyed between the rollers is detected to detect whether or not two sheets overlap.

The banknote transport path 5 passes through the deposit banknote discriminating section 3 and the dispensed banknote discriminating section 10 and annularly transports the vicinity of each unit in one direction, and a main transport path 50 and a main transport path 50.

Shown, temporary storage 4
Is divided into a downstream main transport path 59 which passes through the dispensed bill discriminating section 10 and returns to the deposit / withdrawal port 2. The main transport path 50 can be configured as a simple loop (the bills are transported counterclockwise) in a loop as illustrated.

By omitting the portion of the dotted transport path that is used for withdrawal following the deposit / withdrawal opening and the transport path used for depositing that continues from the deposit / withdrawal opening into the apparatus, The depositing / dispensing device of the invention is non-refluxing. That is, the deposited banknotes are dispensed into a dedicated deposit box, and the dispensed banknotes are dispensed from a dedicated dispense box. As a result, it is possible to provide a highly versatile depositing / withdrawing device to both domestic and foreign countries. Further, by omitting the transport path to some extent, it is possible to provide a deposit / withdrawal device that is inexpensive and does not complicate processing.

The upstream main transport path 58, the unit transport path 51 of the temporary storage 4, and the unit transport path 59 of the separating portion of the deposit / withdrawal port 2 are driven by rotating a first drive motor (not shown) in one direction. . The downstream main transport path 59 and the unit transport paths 52 to 57 of the recycle box 8, the exit box 7, the deposit box 6, the reject box 9, and the loading / recovering box 12 rotate the second drive motor (not shown) in one direction. And drive. At the time of deposit transaction, usually only the first drive motor rotates and the temporary storage 4
In the second drive, the banknotes that are once stored but cannot be discriminated by the deposit banknote discriminating unit 3 and the rejected reject banknotes in which the inclination and the interval between the banknotes are abnormal are not taken into the temporary storage box 4. The motor is rotated to be conveyed to the downstream main conveyance path 59, and if the succeeding bill is not similarly deposited reject, the second drive motor is stopped and the receipt reject bill is retained on the downstream main conveyance route. In addition, the unit transport paths 51 to
As shown in FIG. 7, reference numeral 57 has a common structure. A conveyor belt (not shown) is suspended between two pulleys 506 and 507 to form a conveyor path indicated by a solid arrow 504 and a broken arrow 504a, and the main conveyor is provided. The storage gate 501 that switches the branch from the path 50 and the S / F switching gate 502 that switches the storage and the delivery to and from the unit are respectively shown by solid lines and broken lines (501 and 501a,
02 and 502a) are switched and controlled. Storage gate 501 and S / F switching gate 502 when stored in a unit
At the position of the solid line, the sheet is conveyed as indicated by solid arrows 505, 504, and 503. At the time of delivery from the unit, the storage gate 501a and the S / F switching gate 502a are both conveyed at the positions indicated by broken lines as indicated by broken line arrows 503a, 504a, 505a.

As shown in FIG. 8, the control unit 11 is connected to the main body control unit 106 of the apparatus via the bus 106a, and the control unit 11 of the bill depositing / dispensing mechanism 1 receives commands from the main body control unit 106 and bills. The bill depositing / dispensing machine 1 is controlled according to the state detection of the depositing / dispensing machine 1, and the state of the bill depositing / dispensing machine 1 is sent to the main body control unit 106 as necessary. In the banknote deposit / withdrawal mechanism 1, each unit (the deposit / withdrawal port 2, the deposit banknote discriminating unit 3, the temporary storage 4, the banknote transport path 5, the deposit box 6, the deposit box 7, the recycle box 8, the reject box 9, the dispense bank) It is connected to a drive motor, an electromagnetic solenoid, and a sensor of the money bill discriminating unit 10 and the loading / collecting box 12), and drives and controls the actuator while monitoring the state by the sensor according to the transaction.

Next, the operation for each transaction, especially the handling of rejected bills, will be described.

At the time of the deposit transaction, the bills inserted into the deposit / withdrawal port 2 are separated one by one and temporarily stored in the temporary storage 4 through the upstream main transport path 58. In step 3, the banknotes that cannot be discriminated or the rejected banknotes in which the inclination or the interval between the banknotes is abnormal are not taken into the temporary storage box 4 but are transferred to the downstream main transfer path 59, and the subsequent banknotes are similarly processed. If it is not the deposit reject, the second drive motor is stopped and the deposit reject banknote is held on the downstream main transport path. Each time a deposit rejection occurs, the downstream main transport path 59 is driven and stopped repeatedly, and the money can be continuously held. After counting the deposited banknotes, the push plate 23 of the deposit / withdrawal port 2 is moved, and after the stack preparation, the downstream main transport path 59 is driven again to store the reserved banknotes in the deposit / withdrawal port 2 for use. Return to the person.

After the deposit transaction is completed, the temporary storage 4
The rotating drum 41 of is rotated in the opposite direction,
It is delivered to the downstream main transport path 59 in the reverse order of the storage,
According to the denomination information stored at the time of storage, it is stored in any of the deposit box 6, the recycle box 8 and the reject box 9. At the time of withdrawal, a predetermined number of coins are withdrawn from the withdrawal safe 7 and the recycle box 8 for each denomination, and the withdrawal banknote discriminating unit 10 discriminates them and stores them in the deposit / withdrawal port 2 to be paid to the user. When a withdrawal reject occurs, the banknote is stored in the reject box 9, and the shortage of banknotes is additionally fed out.

Further, if the user forgets to take the banknotes from the deposit / withdrawal port 2, the transaction can be stopped by leaving the deposit / withdrawal port 2 as it is, and the subsequent transaction is continued. Therefore, in the present embodiment, the banknotes that have been forgotten may be separated from the deposit / withdrawal port 2, discriminated and stored in the reject box 9 as in the deposit transaction.

Further, in this embodiment, the loading / recovery box 12 is used to load / recover the two recycle boxes 8.
Scrutiny operations can be performed.

For the loading operation, the clerk does not set the banknotes desired to be set for each denomination in the two recycle boxes 12 individually, but collectively sets them in the loading / collecting box 12 and automatically sets them in the apparatus. Specifically, the operation is to store the denominations in the recycle box 12. The banknotes unloaded from the loading / recovery box 12 are
The deposit bill discriminating unit 3 discriminates the denomination, and the bills are sorted and stored in the recycle box 12 for each denomination. In the deposit banknote discrimination unit 3,
The banknotes that could not be discriminated, or the rejected banknotes that were tilted or had an abnormal interval between banknotes, were temporarily stored in the temporary storage box 4 and then temporarily stored after all the banknotes were delivered from the loading / collecting box 12. The loading reject banknotes are sent from the storage 4 and stored in the loading / collecting storage 12. Alternatively, they may be stored in the reject box 9 as reject banknotes.

In the collecting operation, when one of the recycle boxes 12 becomes full, the clerk does not individually pull out the bills from the recycle box, but the recycle box 12 automatically.
From the above, an operation of loading a predetermined number of sheets into the loading / recovery box 12 is performed.
The banknotes delivered from the recycle box 8 are discriminated by the banknote discriminating section 10 for dispensing and stored in the loading / collecting box 12. When a reject occurs, the banknote is stored in the reject box 9.

In the scrutinizing operation, the clerk may manually take out the amount of the banknotes in the apparatus and take out the banknotes in all the safes of the deposit box 6, the exit box 7, the recycle box 8 and the reject box 9. Instead, it is an operation for automatically counting the amount of money in the recycle box 9 in the apparatus to save the staff. The clerk sets an empty bill loading / recovery box 12 (the same recycle box 8 may be structurally the same) in the apparatus and carries out a detailed examination operation. First, all the banknotes fed from one recycle box 8 are stored in an empty loading / collecting box 12, are again fed from the loading / collecting box 12, and the deposit banknote discriminating unit 3 counts the denomination and the number of coins.
Store in an empty recycle bin. The denomination and the number of coins are counted in the same manner for the other recycle box 8. After the operation is completed, the inventory amount of the two recycle boxes is reported from the control section 11 to the staff by the output means of the apparatus.

Next, the structure and function that characterize this embodiment will be described in detail.

In this embodiment, as described above, the deposit box 6 is set to 1.
There are 1 for the deposit box 7, 1 for the recycle box 8, 2 for the reject box 9, and 1 for the loading / recovery box 12. The deposit box 6, the deposit box 7, the recycle box 8, and the reject box 9 have the same external dimensions and are attachable to and detachable from the banknote deposit / withdrawal mechanism 1, and the unit transport paths 52 to 57 are commonly divided. The deposit box 6, the deposit box 7,
It has a general-purpose configuration in which it is easy to change the setting of the total number of the recycle box 8, the reject box 9, and the loading / collecting box 12 and the setting of the number distribution of individual safes.

For example, when depositing and withdrawing money, the bank side can select the recycle box 8 from the viewpoint of financial efficiency, rather than using the deposit box 6 and the deposit box 7 separately.
Depending on the circulation of banknotes, there is a risk of counterfeit banknotes and a risk of jam due to damage of banknotes when recycled. Therefore, it is possible to select a configuration in which the deposit box 6 and the deposit box 7 are separate.

When two or more recycle boxes 8 are mounted, it is possible to select a structure with a loading / recovery box 12 in order to save the labor of the staff, and in terms of cost or in the apparatus. Since the banknotes are transported more frequently and there is a risk of jams due to damage of the banknotes, it is possible to select a configuration without the loading / collecting box 12 as shown as the second embodiment in FIG. Furthermore, the configuration of FIG. 9 may be selected, and one of the three recycle boxes 9 mounted may be replaced as a loading / recovering box to perform the above-described loading, recovery, and inspection operations.

For the bank side, at the beginning of the operation, the configuration shown in FIG. 1 is used, and depending on the operating status of the deposit / withdrawal transaction, for example, if there are more withdrawal transactions than the deposit / deposit transactions and want to increase the deposit box,
Store the deposited banknotes in the reject box 9 instead of the deposit box 6,
All that is necessary is to replace the deposit box 6 with the deposit box 7. Or
Depending on the operating status, it is possible to change between weekdays and holidays, for example. For example, comparing the recycle box 8 and the deposit box 7 of this embodiment, the recycle box 8 has a small banknote capacity because it has a space in front of the storage portion for the storage operation. On holidays when a large amount of withdrawal transactions are expected, the recycle box 8 may be used instead of the recycle box 8.

Of course, it can be used as a depositing machine or a dispensing machine that handles only deposits and withdrawals. In particular, when it is used as a dispensing machine, the deposit banknote discrimination unit 3 and the temporary storage 4 are provided. It is advantageous in terms of cost to have a configuration without.

When the total number of the deposit box 6, the deposit box 7, the recycle box 8, the reject box 9, and the loading / recovering box 12 is changed and the total number is larger than that of the present embodiment, the banknote depositing / dispensing machine 1 has a high value. It is only necessary to enlarge the size and stack the safes. When the number is smaller than that of the present embodiment, it is possible to operate with the unnecessary portion left open, and the height of the banknote depositing / dispensing machine 1 is reduced to reduce the size. May be turned into.

As described above, the deposit box 6, the deposit box 7, the recycle box 8, the reject box 9, and the loading / recovering box 12 are respectively in the deposit box 6 and the reject box 9, and the recycling box 8 and the loading / collecting box 12. Because of compatibility and compatibility in the case where a plurality of deposit boxes 7 are also installed, each safe is provided with an indicator and a storage means to distinguish the safe, the denomination, the number of stored coins, etc. If the information is displayed and stored, it is possible to improve handleability, prevent accidental attachment / detachment, and tighten cash management.

In the present embodiment, the deposit box 6, the deposit box 7, the recycle box 8, the reject box 9, the loading / collecting box 12, and the dispensing banknote discriminating section 10 are arranged as follows: In consideration of the degree of freedom in selecting the recycle box 8, the recycle box 6, the withdrawal box 7, and the recycle box 8 are arranged downstream, but the remittance box 6 and the withdrawal banknote discriminating unit 10 are replaced and arranged. Good. As a result, the distance between the dispensing banknote discriminating unit 10 and the switching gate for transporting to the reject storage 9 can be increased, and in the present embodiment, the depositing bill discriminating unit 10 can secure a determination time. It is not necessary to secure a vertical space between the safe 6 and the reject box 9, and the overall height can be reduced.

Next, the present embodiment realizes a small and simple structure in the following points.

First, as shown in the recycle box 8 of the conventional example and the present example, the temporary storage box 4 basically has the same function even if it is a stack / feed mechanism that separates and feeds out one by one after stacking them in the storage section. However, as shown in this embodiment,
The mechanism of winding and storing the bills around the rotary drum together with the guide tape is stable because the bills are separated from each other by the guide tape when the bills are discharged. Therefore, it is not necessary to mount the bill discriminating unit on the bill transport path for transporting from the temporary storage 4 to the deposit box 6.

Secondly, by mounting the dispensed bill discriminating unit 10 which is simpler than the deposit bill discriminating unit 3, a bill transport path for transporting from the deposit box 7 to the deposit / withdrawal port 1 without passing through the deposit bill discriminating unit 3 is provided. can do.

Thirdly, by temporarily holding the deposited reject banknotes on the downstream conveying path 50b as described above, it is not necessary to mount a storage unit for accumulating the deposited reject banknotes.

Fourth, even if the depositing port and the dispensing port are separately provided as in the fifth embodiment described later, the same function is achieved, but as in this embodiment, the depositing and dispensing port is formed integrally. As a result, the banknotes that have been forgotten at the time of withdrawal can be unwound from the deposit / withdrawal port and stored in the reject box 9, and a forgotten recovery box as in the conventional example can be installed near the withdrawal port. You don't have to.

Fifthly, as shown in FIG. 7, the unit transport paths 51 to 57 of the banknote transport path 5 are in the storage direction 503 and the feeding direction 503a with respect to each unit, The pulleys 506 and 507 may be driven in one direction, and a drive source common to the main transport path 50 may be used.

Due to the synergistic effect of the above five points, the banknote transport path 5
Is not a complicated structure in which a bill discriminating unit as in the conventional example is combined and branched in a branch shape around the bill discriminating unit.
A main transport path 50 that passes through the dispensed bill discriminating unit 10 and transports the vicinity of each unit in an annular shape, and a main transport path 50 is branched from the middle of the main transport path 50 and stored between each unit.
Alternatively, it has a simple structure including unit transport paths 51 to 59 for feeding.

Further, in the present embodiment, the deposit box 6, the deposit box 7, the recycle box 8, and the reject box 9 which are normally operated by the staff member.
Are stacked and arranged on the rear surface of the device, and each safe can be pulled out horizontally from the rear surface individually, and the operability is good. If there is an abnormality such as a jam, these safes and the unit transport path 51
Although it is likely to occur between ~ 57, the jam can be easily removed because the safe is easily attached and detached. When removing or adding a bill from the safe, even if only the relevant safe is removed, it does not hinder the continuation of transactions without using the safe and there is no need to bring down the device.

Furthermore, the present embodiment has a structure in which the bills to be handled have versatility.

In order to handle not only Japanese yen but also a wide range of foreign bills having different sizes, each unit (the deposit / withdrawal port 2, the deposit box 6, the deposit box 7, the recycle box 8, the reject box 9, the loading / collecting box 12). ), The short dimension is about 100 mm, the longitudinal dimension is about 200 mm, and the width of the transport section (the deposited bill discriminating unit 3, the temporary storage 4, the bill transport path 5, the dispensed bill discriminating unit 10) is About 220mm is secured. Also, the minimum bill size to be handled is a short dimension of about 60 m.
m, longitudinal dimension about 120 mm, entrance safe 6, exit safe 7
The storage section where staff members and users such as set the banknotes arrange adjustable regulation guides (not shown) in order to regulate the alignment in the longitudinal direction and the lateral direction according to the size of the banknotes to be handled. .

As described above, the recycle box 8 discharges from the lower side to the upper side during storage, discharges it downwards at the time of feeding, and stacks the stored banknotes in the horizontal direction. Different banknotes, particularly even banknotes having different sizes in the short-side direction corresponding to the transport direction, the lower ends of the banknotes are aligned along the bottom plate 88 due to the gravity of the banknotes when stored, so that the front ends of the banknotes are aligned at the time of delivery. Easy to secure stable feeding performance.

By the generalization of the handling bill size, the bill depositing / dispensing machine of this embodiment can handle paper sheets other than bills. For example, when issuing a ticket or a guidebook, a staff member may set it in the deposit box 7. In the case of a device that requires printing such as issuance of transaction details slips and issuance of checks, a printing mechanism may be provided in the middle of the banknote transport path, but instead of the deposit box 7, a storage unit and a payout mechanism are provided. It may be replaced with a special case with a built-in printing mechanism. Even when a means for reading a sheet on which a number is printed such as issuance of a traveler's check is required, the same mounting as the printing means may be performed. Alternatively, the bill may be passed through the deposit bill discriminating unit 3, the number may be read, and the bill may be discharged to the deposit / withdrawal port 2.

Further, in the present embodiment, each unit (the deposit / withdrawal port 2, the deposited bill discriminating unit 3, the temporary storage 4, the deposit box 6, the deposit safe 7, the recycle store 8, the reject store 9, the dispensed bill discriminating unit). As described above, the loading / recovery box 10 and the loading / recovery box 12) are independent of each other, and the banknote transport path 5 is configured to connect the respective units, so that it is easy to handle such as assemblability and transportability. Instead, the respective units can be rearranged and connected by a banknote transport path different from that of the present embodiment, and another banknote depositing / dispensing machine according to the intended function can be realized. Another embodiment shown in FIGS. 10 to 15 will be described below.

The banknote pay-in / pay-out device 1b of the third embodiment shown in FIG. 10 has a safe structure which is different from that of the first embodiment.
1 deposit box 6, 2 recycle boxes 8, 1 reject box 9 and 1 loading / collecting box 12, no dispensed banknote discriminating section 10, deposit / withdraw port 2b is recycled As in the case 8, the feeding section and the storage section have a common opening, and the transport path 5b passes through the deposited bill discriminating section 3,
The banknotes are sequentially conveyed to the temporary storage 4, the deposit / withdrawal port 2, the reject storage 9, the deposit box 6, the recycle storage 8, and the loading / recovery storage 12, which is the opposite direction to the first embodiment.
different. According to the present embodiment, the dispensed bill discriminating unit 10 is not provided, and the dispensed bill discriminating unit 3 can discriminate the denomination and the number of coins even at the time of dispensing, which is advantageous in terms of cost and performance. Also,
The deposit / withdrawal port 2b is also simple, which is advantageous in terms of cost.

The banknote pay-in / pay-out device 1c of the fourth embodiment shown in FIG. 11 is different from that of the second embodiment in the banknote transport path 5c.
Among them, there is no transfer path below the deposit / withdrawal port 2 of the upstream main transfer path 58c. The transport path is a transport path that does not pass through a depositing / dispensing operation, but passes only during a loading or scrutiny operation,
According to the present embodiment, the bill depositing / dispensing machine 1c that does not perform loading and scrutiny is advantageous in terms of cost.

In the banknote pay-in / pay-out device 1d of the fifth embodiment shown in FIG. 12, the pay-in / pay-out port 2d has a pay-in port into which a user inserts a banknote and a pay-out port from which a banknote is taken out. That is, two safe deposit boxes 6, three safe deposit boxes 7 and one reject box 9 are arranged in two rows in the front and rear, and these safe section and other units are vertically separated.
Is different from the fourth embodiment in that the layout is such that both the banknotes transported from the deposit / withdrawal port 2d and the banknotes transported from the deposit box 7 pass through the banknote discrimination unit 3. In this embodiment, the front deposit box 6, the exit deposit box 7, and the reject box 9 are moved forward and backward 2
By arranging them in rows, the overall height dimension can be suppressed and the size can be reduced. Further, it is not necessary to separately provide the dispensed bill discriminating unit, which is advantageous in terms of cost and performance.

In the bill depositing / dispensing machine 1e of the sixth embodiment shown in FIG. 13, three deposit boxes 6, three deposit boxes 7 and one reject box 9 are arranged in two rows in front and rear. This is different from the fourth embodiment in that the parts and other units are divided into upper and lower parts. In this embodiment, the deposit box 6, the deposit box 7, and the reject box 9 are arranged in two rows in the front and rear,
The number of safes to be mounted can be increased without increasing the overall height dimension, resulting in improved functionality.

In the banknote depositing / dispensing machine 1f of the seventh embodiment shown in FIG. 14, one deposit box 6, two deposit boxes 7 and one reject box 9 are stacked, and other units are provided. The mounting is different from the fourth embodiment. By implementing this embodiment, downsizing can be realized as a small-scale device having about four or less safes, and when it is implemented in an automated teller machine, the lower part corresponding to the user's foot is the deposit / withdrawal port 2f.
Since it is more dented, the operability is good for the user.

In the banknote pay-in / pay-out device 1g of the eighth embodiment shown in FIG. 15, three recycle boxes 8g and one reject box 9 are equipped with rollers and the like so that the stacking direction of banknotes is vertical. It is different from the fourth embodiment in that it is a modified safe and that these safes are mounted side by side in the horizontal direction. The present embodiment is effective for a device that handles recyclable banknotes, and can be reduced in height and depth.

In the fourth, sixth, seventh and eighth embodiments, the loading / recovery box 1 is given priority to low cost and miniaturization.
No. 2 is not mounted, and the banknote conveying path 5 does not have an annular structure passing through the banknote discriminating section, so that loading, collection, scrutiny, etc. cannot be performed, but as in the first embodiment, a deposit / withdrawal port. By connecting the transportation path in an annular shape at the lower part of the and adding a loading / recovery box, a bill depositing / dispensing machine capable of loading, collecting, and scrutiny can be obtained.

In any of the second to eighth embodiments, the setting of the total number of safes and the setting of the distribution of the number of individual safes can be changed as in the first embodiment described above, which is easy. It is possible to realize a general-purpose configuration and a configuration that has versatility in handling bills.

In the fifth to eighth embodiments, the safe part and the other parts are vertically separable, and it is necessary to enclose the cash storage part in a more rigid casing than the main body casing in terms of crime prevention. In this case, only the lower safe part needs to be enclosed. By the way, as in the first embodiment, in the configuration in which the safe part and other parts can be divided into front and rear, if only the safe part is surrounded by a rigid housing, it becomes impossible to withdraw the bill depositing / dispensing machine from the rear surface of the device. , It is necessary to enclose the entire bill depositing / dispensing machine in a solid case.

In all of the above-mentioned embodiments, the temporary storage box 4 for temporarily storing the deposited banknotes is mounted. However, even in the banknote depositing / dispensing mechanism without the temporary storage box 4, the deposited banknotes are discriminated by the banknote discriminating section 3 According to the determination result of 1, the same depositing / withdrawing function can be obtained by directly storing in the recycle box 8 and, when it is necessary to cancel and return the recycle box, withdraw from the recycle box 8.
