The product guarantee tape confirmation device 3 determines whether or not the sealing product guarantee tape 55 is correctly applied according to a specific method described later (STEP 3).
[0067]
Then, the sealed securities thousand-sheet bundle 51 is sent from the product guarantee tape confirmation device 3 to the product guarantee tape exclusion bundle collecting device 5. At this time, the thousand pieces of sealed securities bundle 51 determined that the product guarantee tape 55 for sealing is not correctly applied by the product guarantee tape confirmation device 3 is removed from the product guarantee tape exclusion bundle stacking device 5 outside the securities processing system. (STEP 4). On the other hand, the sealable securities thousand bundle 51 determined by the product warranty tape confirmation device 3 that the sealing product warranty tape 55 has been correctly applied is sent from the product warranty tape exclusion bundle stacking device 5 to the serial number display slip confirmation device 7. Sent to.
[0068]
When the sealed securities thousand pieces bundle 51 is sent to the serial number display slip confirmation device 7, the serial number display slip confirmation device 7 is displayed on the serial number display slip 42 attached to the sealed securities thousand pieces bundle 51. And the serial number of the uppermost securities 30 of the sealed securities thousand bundle 51 are read to perform serial number collation judgment and serial number duplication check judgment (STEP 5).
[0069]
As a result of various determinations in the serial number display form confirmation device 7, the sealed securities thousand sheets bundle 51 determined to be defective is compared with data indicating a non-defective product transmitted from another system (not shown). (STEP 5-1). That is, in another system (not shown), the display slip serial number displayed on the serial number display slip and the serial number of the securities are read to determine whether or not they match. Data indicating that the product is a non-defective product is input and stored in the system via a magnetic disk or a communication line. As a result of this comparison (STEP 5-1), when there is no data indicating that the product is a non-defective product, the data is sent from the serial number display slip confirmation device 7 to the serial number display slip removal device 9 and is stored in the securities processing system. It is excluded outside (STEP 6).
[0070]
Further, as a result of the comparison (STEP 5-1), when there is data indicating that the product is a non-defective product, and as a result of various determinations in the serial number display slip confirmation device 7, the sealed securities thousand that have been determined to be good The sheet bundle 51 is sent from the serial number display form confirmation device 7 to the ten bundle accumulation device 10. Further, the serial number printed on the serial number display slip 42 of the sealed securities thousand bundle 51 determined to be good, that is, the serial number of the securities 30 positioned at the bottom of the sealed securities thousand bundle 51. Is sent from the serial number display form confirmation device 7 to the TLC 17a.
[0071]
Thousands of sealed securities bundles 51 sent to the ten-bundle stacking apparatus 10 are stacked in a form of five bundles × two rows to produce an integrated ten-bundle product.
[0072]
The ten bundle products are sent from the ten bundle collecting apparatus 10 to the ten bundle enclosing apparatus 11 and sealed with a film. That is, the ten bundle product is pushed into the film without breaking the product form, and is wrapped in the caramel fold by this film. And the film which encloses ten bundle products is welded with a heater etc., and ten bundle products are sealed with a film. When enclosing ten bundles with a film, the film is controlled to a constant tension to prevent loosening of the envelope, the film is prevented from being charged with an electrostatic removal bar, etc., or a heater for welding the film, etc. It is preferable that the temperature can be automatically adjusted.
[0073]
The ten bundle products encapsulated with the film are sent from the ten bundle encapsulating apparatus 11 to the shrink apparatus 12. The ten bundle products are sent into the shrink tunnel and hot air is blown by the hot air blower. Thereby, a film softens and shrinks, and ten bundle products are sealed with a film. When the ten bundle products are discharged from the shrink tunnel, the ten bundle products are blown with normal temperature air by the normal temperature air blower, and the residual heat of the film is removed. In this way, the ten bundle product is sealed with the film, and the securities thousand bundle bundle ten bundle seal 70 is produced (STEP 7).
[0074]
Then, the securities thousand bundles 10 bundles 70 are sent from the shrink device 12 to the barcode printing and pasting device 15. The barcode printing and pasting device 15 uses the two side barcodes to identify the ten bundle seal ID for identifying the sent thousand bundle bundle ten bundle seal 70 from the other securities thousand bundle bundle bundle 70. Printing is performed on the label 61 and the two upper bar code labels 63. Then, as shown in FIG. 5, the side bar code labels 61 are respectively attached to the opposing side surfaces of the thousand securities bundles 10 bundles 70, and are opposed to each other on the upper surface of the securities thousand bundles bundles 70. An upper bar code label 63 is attached in the vicinity of each side surface.
[0075]
Such a thousand securities bundle 10 bundle seal 70 is sent from the barcode printing / applying device 15 to the 10 bundle ID determination device 18. The ten-bundle ID determination device 18 is printed on the two side bar code labels 61 and the two top bar code labels 63 that are affixed to the sent thousands of securities ten bundles 70. Read the bundled ID. Then, the ten bundle seal determination device 18 inspects whether or not the ten bundle seal ID printed on each side bar code label 61 and each top bar code label 63 can be read normally, and each side bar code. It is determined whether or not the ten bundle seal ID is appropriate by inspecting whether or not the ten bundle seal ID printed on the code label 61 and each upper bar code label 63 is the same. (STEP8). As a result of this determination, if it is determined that the read ten bundle seal ID is not appropriate, the serial number of the securities 30 located at the bottom of the securities thousand bundle ten seal 70 stored in the TLC 17a. Are deleted from the TLC 17a. On the other hand, if it is determined that the read ten bundle seal ID is appropriate, the ten bundle seal ID of the securities thousand bundle ten bundle seal 70 is sent from the ten bundle seal determination device 18 to the TLC 17a.
[0076]
Then, the thousand securities bundle 10 bundle seal 70 is sent from the 10 bundle ID determination device 18 to the bar code label pasting bundle removal device 16. At this time, the thousand-card bundle ten-bundle seal 70 determined to be inappropriate by the ten-bundle seal ID judging device 18 is excluded from the bar code label sticking ten-bundle seal removing device 16 to the outside of the securities processing system ( (STEP 9).
[0077]
On the other hand, the thousand-card bundle ten-bundle seal 70 determined to be appropriate by the ten-bundle seal ID judgment device 18 passes through the visual confirmation area 59 from the bar code label pasting ten-bundle seal device 16 to the ten-bundle seal stacking device. 13 is sent.
[0078]
In the visual confirmation area 59, it is possible to visually confirm the thousand thousand bundles of ten securities 70 sent to the ten bundle seal stacking device 13. Thereby, it is possible to prevent the thousands of bundles of securities with a bad state, such as a large hole in the packaging film or peeling of the adhesive part, from being sent to the bundle of stacking devices 13. .
[0079]
The thousands of securities bundles 10 bundles 70 sent to the ten-bundle stacking device 13 are sequentially stacked on the pallet 37 determined to be good in the process described later (STEP 10). At this time, as shown in FIG. 6, the pallet 37 is loaded with a bundle of ten thousand bundles of valuable securities of two packages in the vertical direction, two packages in the horizontal direction, and ten packages in the height direction. Therefore, on one pallet 37, a total of 40 securities thousand bundles of ten bundles 70 sent from the ten bundle sealing device 13 are loaded. Then, the top plate 43 is loaded on the uppermost stage of the 40 securities thousand bundles 10 bundles 70 loaded on the pallet 37 to produce a 10 bundles pallet.
[0080]
The ten bundle sealed loading pallet is sent from the ten bundle sealed loading device 13 to the binding device 40. The binding device 40 binds a predetermined portion of the sent ten bundle sealed pallet with the ester band 39 to produce the tied ten bundle sealed pallet 52 (STEP 11). As a result, each of the securities bundles of ten bundles 70 of the tied and bundled stacking pallet 52 is held loaded by the ester band 39 and prevented from collapsing.
[0081]
The tied and bundled pallet 52 is sent from the binding device 40 to the pallet ID determination device 19. The pallet ID determination device 19 receives the pallet ID printed on the pallet barcode label 65 affixed to the bound ten bundle sealed pallet 52 and the ten thousand bundles of securities of each ten bundle sealed pallet. The ten bundle seal ID printed on the side bar code label 61 affixed to the seal 70 is read. At this time, the pallet ID determination device 19 is printed on the pallet ID of the pallet bar code label 65 and the side bar code label 61 of each securities bundle of ten bundles 70 loaded and bound on the pallet 37. Based on whether or not the ten bundle seal ID can be read normally, the quality of the tied ten bundle sealed pallet 52 is determined. (STEP 12). When the pallet ID determination device 19 determines that the bound and bundled sealed pallet 52 is normal, the pallet ID and the bundled ID are sent to the PLC 17b and associated with each other to form the PLC 17b. Is remembered. The tied and bundled pallet 52 is sent from the pallet ID determination device 19 to the entry label sticking device 66.
[0082]
On the other hand, the tied and bundled pallet 52 determined to be not normal by the pallet ID determination device 19 is determined again by a handy bar code reader or the like. As a result of this re-determination, the bound ten bundle sealed pallet 52 determined to be normal is sent to the entry label attaching device 66, and the pallet ID and ten bundle sealed ID are sent to the PLC 17b to correspond to each other. Attached and stored in the PLC 17b.
[0083]
The attached label 67 is attached to the tied and bundled stacking pallet 52 sent to the entry label attaching device 66 (STEP 13). On the entry label 67, various kinds of information such as the ticket type, the total amount, the date of manufacture, the person in charge / responsible person, the manufacturer name, etc. of the securities 30 loaded on the tied and bundled pallet 52 are printed. be able to. Therefore, the symbols printed on the entry label 67 can be used to easily identify the contents of the bound and bundled pallet 52.
[0084]
The tied ten bundle sealed pallet 52 to which the entry label 67 is attached is sent from the entry label attaching apparatus 66 to the pallet transport apparatus 38. Then, the bound and bundled pallet 52 determined to be normal by the pallet ID determination device 19 is unloaded by the pallet transport device 38 and sent from the securities processing system to the subsequent stage (STEP 14). On the other hand, the tied and bundled sealed pallet 52 determined to be not normal by the pallet ID judging device 19 is sent from the pallet conveying device 38 to the tied and bundled sealed pallet removing device 28, and the outside of the securities processing system. (STEP 15).
[0085]
By the way, the serial number of the securities 30 included in each of the securities bundles 50 sent from the serial number display form confirmation device 7 to the TLC 17a, and the ten bundle ID determination device 18 are sent to the TLC 17a. The ten-pack seal ID is associated with each other and stored in the TLC 17a. Then, the serial number and the ten bundle ID that are associated with each other are sent from the TLC 17a to the BCS 17c. Further, the associated pallet ID and ten bundle ID stored in the PLC 17b are sent from the PLC 17b to the BCS 17c.
[0086]
The BCS 17c associates the pallet ID with the ten bundle seal ID and the serial number based on the serial number and ten bundle seal ID sent from the TLC 17a and the pallet ID and ten bundle seal ID sent from the PLC 17b. And remember. For example, in this embodiment, as shown in FIG. 11, 40 pallet IDs are associated with one pallet ID, and ten serial numbers are associated with one pallet ID. It is done.
[0087]
In this way, by storing each of the pallet ID, the ten bundle ID, and the serial number in association with each other, each securities thousand bundle 50, each securities thousand bundle ten bundle 70, and each pallet are stored. The correspondence with 37 can be clarified.
[0088]
Next, processing steps in the product guarantee tape confirmation device 3 will be described.
[0089]
In the product guarantee tape confirmation apparatus 3 shown in FIG. 8, the sealed securities thousand sheets bundle 51 is disposed at a predetermined confirmation position. The thousands of sealed securities bundles 51 arranged at the predetermined confirmation positions are irradiated with light in the visible wavelength region and ultraviolet rays by the illumination devices 20a and 20b for confirmation devices, respectively. At this time, the sealed securities thousand-sheet bundle 51 reflects the irradiated light in the visible wavelength range, and the fluorescent substance contained in the sealing product guarantee tape 55 of the sealed securities thousand-sheet bundle 51 is irradiated with ultraviolet rays. It emits ultraviolet excitation light.
[0090]
The reflected light (visible reflected light) of light in the visible wavelength region by the thousands of sealed securities 51 and the ultraviolet excitation light from the sealing product guarantee tape 55 are imaged at once by the confirmation device area sensor 21, and the confirmation device image. Obtained as a visible image by the obtaining unit 22. That is, in the confirmation device image acquisition unit 22, the entire securities 30 located at the top of the sealed securities thousand bundle 51 and the band 41 for bundling the securities 30 are acquired as visible images by visible reflected light, Further, the sealing product guarantee tape 55 is acquired as a visible image by ultraviolet excitation light.
[0091]
The visible image acquired by the confirmation-apparatus image acquisition unit 22 is sent to the band position detection unit 23. The band position detection unit 23 determines the presence and position of the horizontal band 41a and the vertical band 41b that enclose the securities 30. To detect. The visible image acquired by the confirmation device image acquisition unit 22 is also sent to the tape detection unit 24, which detects the presence and position of the sealing product guarantee tape 55.
[0092]
The presence / absence and position of the horizontal band 41a and the vertical band 41b detected by the band position detection unit 23 and the presence / absence and position of the sealing product guarantee tape 55 detected by the tape detection unit 24 are good / bad for the confirmation device. It is sent to the determination unit 25. The confirmation device pass / fail determination unit 25 determines whether the quality of the bundle of sealable securities 51 that is a quality check target based on the position of the horizontal band 41a, the vertical band 41b, and the position of the product guarantee tape 55 for sealing. Determine.
[0093]
At this time, the quality determination unit 25 for the confirmation device determines whether the quality of the thousand bundles 51 of the sealed securities that are the quality confirmation target is good or not, depending on whether or not the product guarantee tape 55 for sealing is affixed at the specified position. Is done. Here, the specified position where the sealing product guarantee tape 55 is affixed is determined by the relative position of the sealing product guarantee tape 55 with respect to the positions of the horizontal band 41a and the vertical band 41b.
[0094]
That is, in the confirmation device pass / fail determination unit 25, as shown in FIG. 12, the distance x at which the sealing product guarantee tape 55 protrudes to the right side of the vertical belt 41b. _r And the distance x protruding to the left _l And the distance y that the horizontal band 41a protrudes above the sealing product guarantee tape 55 _u And the distance y protruding downward _d Is required. And the required x _r , X _l , Y _u , Y _d , Is a predetermined distance x ₁ , X ₂ And y ₁ , Y ₂ Whether the quality of the sealed bundle of thousands of securities 51 is good or not is determined by whether or not the conditions defined in the following formulas (1) and (2) expressed using
[0095]
x ₁ ≤ x _r , X _l ≤ x ₂ ... (1)
y ₁ ≤ y _u , Y _d ≤ y ₂ ... (2)
When both of the expressions (1) and (2) are satisfied, it is determined that the quality of the sealed securities thousand sheets bundle 51 is good, while at least one of the expressions (1) and (2) is satisfied. If not, it is determined that the quality of the sealed securities thousand sheets bundle 51 is not good.
[0096]
The sealed securities thousand-sheet bundle 51 determined to have good quality by the confirmation device pass / fail determination unit 25 passes through the product guarantee tape exclusion bundle stacking device 5 and is sent to the serial number display slip confirmation device 7. On the other hand, the sealed securities thousand-sheet bundle 51 determined by the confirmation device pass / fail judgment unit 25 to be of poor quality is sent to the product guarantee tape exclusion bundle stacking device 5 and discharged out of the securities processing system.
[0097]
Next, processing steps in the serial number display form confirmation device 7 will be described.
[0098]
In the serial number display slip confirmation apparatus 7 shown in FIG. 9, the sealed securities thousand sheets bundle 51 is arranged at a predetermined confirmation position. The sealed securities thousand bundle 51 arranged at a predetermined confirmation position is irradiated with light in the visible wavelength range by the display card illuminators 71a and 71b. The reflected light from 51 is picked up at once by a display slip area sensor or the like to obtain a visible image. As a result, the display slip area sensor 72 has the serial number printed on the securities 30 positioned at the top of the sealed securities thousand bundle 51 and the notes attached to the sealed securities thousand bundle 51. A visible image including the serial number printed on the number display slip 42 is acquired. The visible image is sent from the display form area sensor 72 to the display form image acquisition unit 73.
[0099]
Based on the visible image sent from the display slip area sensor 72, the display slip image acquisition unit 73 and the serial number printed on the securities 30 positioned at the top of the bundle of sealed securities thousand sheets 51 Then, the serial number printed on the serial number display tag 42 affixed to the sealed securities thousand bundle 51 is read. The information read by the display form image obtaining unit 73 is sent to the serial number matching unit 74 and also sent to the duplication checking unit 75 via the serial number matching unit 74.
[0100]
The serial number collation unit 74, based on the information sent from the display form image obtaining unit 73, the serial number printed on the securities 30 located at the top of the bundle of sealed securities thousand sheets 51, and this The consistency with the serial number printed on the serial number display tag 42 affixed to the bundle of sealed securities 1000 is checked.
[0101]
In the present embodiment, the serial number display slip 42 is printed with the serial number of the security 30 located at the bottom of the sealed securities thousand bundle 51, whereas the security 30 acquired from the visible image. The serial number printed on is the serial number of the securities 30 located at the top of the bundle of thousand sealed securities 51. For this reason, the serial number collation unit 74 appropriately determines the serial number printed on the securities 30 and the serial number printed on the serial number display slip 42 based on the information from the display slip image acquisition unit 73. It is determined whether or not the consistency is appropriate by checking whether or not there is a proper correspondence. The result of this collation inspection is sent from the serial number collation unit 74 to the display card pass / fail determination unit 76 via the duplication inspection unit 75.
[0102]
On the other hand, the duplication inspection unit 75 inspects whether or not the serial numbers of the sealed securities thousand bundle 51 are duplicated based on the information sent from the display form image acquisition unit 73. Specifically, the serial number sent from the display form image acquisition unit 73 and the serial number of other sealed securities 1000 bundles 51 already stored in the TLC 17a or BCS 17c connected to the duplication inspection unit 75. The number is checked against. If the serial number already stored in the TLC 17a or BCS 17c is the same as the serial number sent from the display form image acquisition unit 73, there is an overlap and the inspection result is not appropriate. Is done. The result of this duplication inspection is sent from the duplication examination unit 75 to the pass / fail judgment unit 76 for display form.
[0103]
The pass / fail judgment unit 76 for display slips is a sealed securities subject to quality confirmation based on the collation inspection result sent from the serial number collation unit 74 and the duplicate inspection result sent from the duplication inspection unit 75. The quality of the thousand-sheet bundle 51 is determined. That is, when at least one of the above-described verification inspection results and duplicate inspection results is not appropriate, it is determined that the thousand sealed securities bundle 51 is not good. Then, the sealed securities 1000-sheet bundle 51 is sent to the serial number display form exclusion bundle stacking device 9 and is excluded from the securities processing system. On the other hand, when both the above-described verification inspection result and duplicate inspection result are appropriate, the sealed securities thousand bundle 51 is sent to the ten bundle stacking apparatus 10 and printed on the serial number display slip 42. The number is sent from the serial number display form confirmation device 7 to the TLC 17a.
[0104]
Next, a method for supplying the pallet 37 on which the thousands of securities bundles 10 bundles 70 are loaded by the bundle bundle loading device 13 will be described.
[0105]
First, an empty pallet 37 is prepared by the pallet supply unit 36 a of the ten bundle sealed stacking device 13. A pallet barcode label 65 is affixed to the empty pallet 37 in advance, and a pallet ID for identifying the empty pallet 37 is printed on the pallet barcode label 65. Then, the pallet barcode determination device 36c determines whether or not the pallet ID printed on the pallet barcode label 65 attached to the empty pallet 37 can be normally read. If the pallet barcode determination device 36c determines that the pallet ID can be read normally, the pallet 37 is determined to be good and is sent to the subsequent stage to seal a bundle of thousands of securities. 70 is loaded. On the other hand, when the pallet barcode determination device 36c determines that the pallet ID cannot be read normally, it is excluded from the ten-pack sealed stacking device 13 after an alarm by a buzzer and a lamp is issued. It has become. As a result, the thousand securities bundles 10 bundles 70 are loaded only on the pallet 37 to which the appropriate pallet barcode label 65 is attached.
[0106]
As described above, according to the present embodiment, the serial number and the ten bundle seal ID are associated with each other and stored in the TLC 17a, and the pallet ID and the ten bundle seal ID are associated with each other and stored in the PLC 17b. The number, ten bundle seal ID, and pallet ID are associated with each other and stored in the BCS 17c. For this reason, the serial number of the securities 30 is changed to the ten bundle ID of the securities bundle of ten bundles 70 including the serial number and the pallet ID of the pallet 37 including the securities bundle of ten bundles 70 of the securities. The securities processing system can be managed in association with Therefore, for example, after a thousand bundles of securities bundles 70 are loaded and bound on the pallet 37, it is necessary to investigate a predetermined bundle of securities 50 due to some abnormality or failure. However, it is easy to identify which pallet 37 is loaded with a predetermined bundle of securities 50 based on the correspondence relationship between the pallet ID, the ten bundle ID and the serial number stored in the BCS 17c. Can do. As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to easily and surely specify each thousand thousand bundles of securities.
[0107]
Further, the product guarantee tape attaching apparatus 1 seals the thousand securities bundle 50 with the sealing product guarantee tape 55 provided separately from the horizontal band 41a and the vertical band 41b. As a result, when a fraudulent act is performed on the thousand securities bundle 50, it becomes possible to identify the cheating easily and reliably, and to assure the quality of the securities bundle 50 appropriately. Can do. Further, since the sealing product guarantee tape 55 contains a fluorescent material, the presence and position of the sealing product guarantee tape 55 can be easily specified by irradiating with ultraviolet rays. Further, since the sealing product guarantee tape 55 is made of a transparent material that can read information immediately below from the outside, the sealing product guarantee tape 55 is information such as a serial number display tag 42 directly below the sealing product guarantee tape 55. The reading of the sealed securities 1000 bundles 51 can be facilitated. Further, since the sealing product guarantee tape 55 has a strong adhesive property, it is very difficult to cleanly remove the sealing product guarantee tape 55 from the horizontal band 41a and the vertical band 41b. For this reason, even if the sealing product guarantee tape 55 is peeled off and an illegal act is performed, the illegal act can be easily and reliably specified.
[0108]
Further, the product guarantee tape confirmation device 3 can quickly and efficiently confirm the presence and position of the sealing product guarantee tape 55 of the sealed securities thousand bundle 51. In particular, the horizontal band 41a, the vertical band 41b, and the securities 30 can be confirmed by reflected light in the visible wavelength range, and the sealing product is excited by the fluorescent substance contained in the sealing product guarantee tape 55. The guarantee tape 55 can be easily confirmed. For this reason, it is possible to accurately determine the quality of the thousand sealed securities bundle 51 based on the presence / absence and position of the product guarantee tape 55 for sealing. It can be easily removed to the outside.
[0109]
The serial number display slip confirmation device 7 is displayed on the serial number display slip 42 and the serial number displayed on the securities 30 positioned at the top of the bundle of sealed securities thousand sheets 51 by the serial number verification unit 74. It is possible to easily check the consistency between the serial number and the serial number of the sealed bundle of securities 51 from the serial number read by the display form image acquisition unit 73. Can be easily inspected. Furthermore, it is possible to accurately determine the quality of the sealed securities thousand bundle 51 based on these verification inspection results and the inspection results of duplicate serial numbers.
[0110]
In addition, the serial number displayed on the serial number display slip 42 should just be what can identify the securities 30 contained in each securities 1000 bundle 50. For this reason, the serial number displayed on the serial number display slip 42 may be a number, a symbol, a character, or a combination thereof, and the serial number display slip 42 may simply be a number slip.
[0111]
Further, the confirmation device illuminators 20a and 20b included in the product guarantee tape confirmation device 3 may be any device as long as they can irradiate light and ultraviolet rays in the visible wavelength range appropriately to the bundle of sealed valuable securities 51. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 4, a plurality of (two) confirmation device illuminators 20a and 20b are provided, and light and ultraviolet rays in the visible wavelength region are separately sealed by each confirmation device illuminator 20a and 20b. The bundle of thousands of sheets 51 may be irradiated, or the bundle of thousands of sealed securities 51 may be irradiated with both light in the visible wavelength region and ultraviolet rays by a single illuminator for confirmation device. Similarly, the thousands of sealed securities bundles 51 may be irradiated with light in the visible wavelength range by a single display card illuminator.
[0112]
In addition, the ultraviolet rays emitted by the confirmation device illuminator excite the fluorescent substance contained in the sealing product guarantee tape 55 to generate excitation light, so that the presence and position of the sealing product guarantee tape 55 can be confirmed. Irradiation. Therefore, it is not always necessary to irradiate the entire bundle of sealed securities 51 with ultraviolet rays, as long as the sealing product guarantee tape 55 affixed to the specified position can be appropriately irradiated with ultraviolet rays. Good.
[0113]
The band position detection unit 23 detects the presence and position of the band 41 based on the visible image captured by the confirmation device image acquisition unit 22, and the tape detection unit 24 includes the confirmation device image acquisition unit. The presence / absence and position of the sealing product guarantee tape 55 are detected based on the visible image captured at 22. For this reason, in the present embodiment, an example in which the confirmation-apparatus image acquisition unit 22 captures visible reflected light and ultraviolet excitation light as a visible image at a time has been described. However, a visible image by visible reflected light and a visible image by ultraviolet excitation light have been described. The image may be captured separately.
[0114]
In addition, the duplication inspection part 75 of the serial number display form confirmation apparatus 7 inspects the duplication of serial numbers based on the serial number printed on the securities 30 read by the display form image acquisition part 73. Also good.
[0115]
In the present specification, the securities 30 refer to strictly number-controlled printed matter such as banknotes, stamps, checks, securities, lotteries, and the like.
[0116]
【The invention's effect】
As described above, according to the securities processing system of the present invention, the label ID for identifying each bundle of thousands of securities and the serial number for identifying each bundle of thousands of securities are mutually assigned. Managing securities on the basis of first storage means for storing in association with each other and second storage means for storing in association with each other a label ID and a pallet ID for identifying each pallet. it can. As a result, it is possible to clarify the correspondence relationship between each bundle of thousands of securities, each bundle of thousands of securities, and each pallet. It is possible to easily and reliably identify a bundle of thousands of securities.
[0117]
In addition, only a thousand bundles of sealed securities whose inspection results by the product guarantee tape inspection means for sealing and the inspection results by the serial number inspection means are correct are packaged with a film by the packaging means. For this reason, only a good bundle of thousands of sealed securities can be packaged with a film.
