  Upon receipt of the start signal, the CPU 70 simultaneously outputs drive signals to the first rotary disk motor 80, the second rotary disk motor 81, and the conveyor belt motor 82, respectively, and the first rotary disk is output. While rotating the 1st and 2nd rotation disc 2, the conveyance belt 5 is driven.

  Next, the CPU 70 causes the display panel 105 to display a message prompting the operator to insert a coin.

  When a message to the effect that coins should be inserted is displayed on the display panel 105, the operator inserts coins into the coin wrapping machine.

  The coin wrapping machine according to the present embodiment is configured such that coins can be put into the coin wrapping machine via either the upper hopper 1 or the lower hopper 35, and the coins are placed in the upper hopper 1. When inserted, the coin falls onto the first rotating disk 2 through the opening 1 a of the upper hopper 1.

  On the other hand, when a coin is thrown into the lower hopper 35, it is detected by a sensor (not shown) provided in the lower hopper 35 that the coin has been thrown into the lower hopper 35. A detection signal is output from the sensor to the CPU 70.

  When the CPU 70 receives a coin detection signal from a sensor provided in the lower hopper 35 and determines that the coin has been inserted into the lower hopper 35, it sends a drive signal to the lower conveyance belt motor 94, the lift motor 95 and the supply belt motor 96. Then, the conveyor belt 36, the coin lift belt 37, and the supply belt 38 are driven.

  As a result, the coins thrown into the lower hopper 35 are transferred to the coin lift belt 37 by the transport belt 36 that forms the bottom of the lower hopper 35.

  The coins transferred from the transport belt 36 to the coin lift belt 37 are locked at their lower edges by comb-shaped protrusions 37 a provided on the coin lift belt 37, and are placed on the surface of the coin lift belt 37. Then, the coin surface is conveyed from the lower hopper 35 toward the upper hopper 1.

  As the coin lift belt 37 is driven, the coins delivered to the coin lift belt 37 are respectively sent upward and a scraper plate (not shown) provided near the upper end of the coin lift belt 37. ) Is scraped off from the coin lift belt 37 and falls onto the supply belt 38.

  Thus, the coins dropped on the supply belt 38 are respectively supplied into the upper hopper 1 by the supply belt 38 and fall onto the first rotating disk 2 through the opening 1 a of the upper hopper 1.

  The coins that have dropped onto the first rotating disk 2 are sent onto the second rotating disk 3 by the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the first rotating disk 2.

  An annular guide (not shown) is provided around the second rotating disk 3, and the coins fed into the second rotating disk 3 are rotated by the second rotating disk 3. Is moved along the annular guide by the centrifugal force generated by the above, and is fed out one by one into the coin passage 4 from a delivery port (not shown) provided in the annular guide.

  The coins fed out from the second rotating disk 3 to the coin passage 4 are transported through the coin passage 4 while being sandwiched between the upper surface of the coin passage 4 and the conveyor belt 5.

  In the direction change part 4a, the coin changes its conveyance direction over the main body of the coin wrapping machine over approximately 90 degrees, and then the coin detection part 7 provided in the coin passage 4 on the downstream side of the direction change part 4a. Sent to.

  Although not shown in FIG. 1, the coin discriminating unit 7 detects an optical sensor (not shown) for detecting optical data such as a coin diameter and a surface pattern, and material data such as a magnetic property of the coin. A magnetic sensor (not shown) is provided, the coin discriminating unit 7 detects the optical data and material data of the coin, and the coin discriminating unit 7 detects the detected optical data and material data of the coin. 7 to the CPU 70.

  When the CPU 70 receives the optical data and material data of the coin from the coin discriminating unit 7, it reads out the reference optical data and the reference material data of the coin stored in the ROM 71 in the ROM 71 and is inputted from the coin discriminating unit 7. Compared with the optical data and material data of the coin, it is determined whether the coin is an acceptable coin or an unacceptable coin such as a counterfeit coin or a foreign coin. Further, the denomination of the coin is determined, and the determination result is written in the RAM 72.

  When the coin is further conveyed toward the downstream side in the coin passage 4, and the coin is detected by the sensor 8a, a coin detection signal is output from the sensor 8a to the CPU.

  When receiving a coin detection signal from the sensor 8a, the CPU 70 reads the coin discrimination result stored in the RAM 72.

  When the coin is determined to be an unacceptable coin such as a counterfeit coin or a foreign coin, and the fact is written in the RAM 72, the CPU 70 outputs a drive signal to the first solenoid 83, One projecting member 8d is rotated from the retracted position retracted into the guide rail 6a to the projecting position projecting into the coin passage 4.

  As a result, the coin determined to be an unacceptable coin is pushed toward the guide rail 6b by the first projecting member 8d, separated from the inner wall of the guide rail 6a, and not guided by the inner wall of the guide rail 6a. Then, it is sent to the first coin collecting port 8.

  Therefore, the distance L2 between the inner wall of the guide rail 6a and the tip of the first protruding member 8d at the protruding position is such that the first coin collecting port 8 has a distance L2 between the inner wall of the guide rail 6a and the first coin collecting port. 8 is formed so as to be slightly larger than the distance L3 to the edge on the guide rail 6a side, and therefore, a coin that has been determined to be an acceptable coin such as a counterfeit coin or a foreign coin is The edge on the rail 6a side is not supported by the upper surface of the coin passage 4 between the guide rail 6a and the first coin recovery port 8, falls into the first coin recovery port 8, and the first coin recovery The coins are collected in the coin collection box 31 via the first coin collection passage 30 connected to the mouth 8.

  On the other hand, when it is determined that the coin detected by the sensor 8a is an acceptable coin, the CPU 70 does not output any signal.

  As a result, the coins determined to be acceptable coins have both edges at the upper surface of the coin passage 4 between the guide rail 6a and the first coin collection port 8, and the first coin collection port 8. While being supported by the upper surface of the coin passage 4 between the guide rail 6b, the coin is fed to the first coin collecting port 8, and the first coin collecting port 8 includes the inner wall of the guide rail 6a and the first coin collecting port. 8 is formed so that the distance L1 with the edge on the guide rail 6b side is slightly smaller than the diameter of the coin with the smallest diameter to be processed. It passes through the first coin collecting port 8 without falling.

  The coin that has passed through the first coin collection port 8 passes over the sensor 8b.

  As a result, a coin detection signal is output from the sensor 8 b to the CPU 70.

  When the CPU 70 receives the coin detection signal from the sensor 8b, the CPU 70 reads the coin discrimination result written in the RAM 72, and reads the number of coins detected by the sensor 8b into the memory area of the RAM 72 corresponding to the denomination of the coin. Write.

  The coin determined to be an acceptable coin is further conveyed downstream in the coin passage 4, and when the coin is detected by the sensor 9a, a coin detection signal is output from the sensor 9a to the CPU 70. The

  When the CPU 70 receives a coin detection signal from the sensor 9 a, the CPU 70 reads the coin discrimination result stored in the RAM 72 and reads the denomination of the coin to be wrapped stored in the RAM 72.

  The CPU 70 determines whether or not the coin denomination matches the denomination of the coin to be packaged based on the coin determination result stored in the RAM 72 and the denomination of the coin to be packaged stored in the RAM 72. Determine whether.

  As a result of determining whether or not the denomination of the coin matches the denomination of the coin to be wrapped, when it is determined that the denomination of the coin does not match the denomination of the coin to be wrapped, the CPU 70 Then, a drive signal is output to the second solenoid 84 to rotate the second projecting member 9d from the retracted position retracted into the guide rail 6a to the projecting position projecting into the coin passage 4.

  As a result, the coin determined that the denomination does not match the denomination of the coin to be wrapped is pushed toward the guide rail 6b by the second projecting member 9d, and is separated from the inner wall of the guide rail 6a. It is sent to the second coin collecting port 9 without being guided by the inner wall of the guide rail 6a.

  Therefore, the distance L5 between the inner wall of the guide rail 6a and the tip of the second protruding member 9d at the protruding position is such that the second coin collecting port 9 has a distance L5 between the inner wall of the guide rail 6a and the second coin collecting port. 9 is formed so as to be slightly larger than the distance L6 with the edge on the guide rail 6a side, so that the coin determined to be inconsistent with the denomination of the coin to be wrapped is The edge on the guide rail 6a side is not supported by the upper surface of the coin passage 4 between the guide rail 6a and the second coin recovery port 9, falls into the second coin recovery port 9, and the second It is collected in the lower hopper 35 via the second coin collecting passage 32 connected to the coin collecting port 9.

  On the other hand, when it is determined that the denomination of the coin detected by the sensor 8a matches the denomination of the coin to be wrapped, the CPU 70 does not output any signal.

  As a result, the coin determined that the denomination matches the denomination of the coin to be wrapped has a coin passage 4 between the guide rail 6a and the second coin collecting port 9 at both edges. , And the second coin recovery port 9 is guided to the guide rail while being supported by the upper surface of the coin passage 4 between the second coin recovery port 9 and the guide rail 6b. The distance L4 between the inner wall of 6a and the edge of the second coin recovery port 9 on the guide rail 6b side is formed to be slightly smaller than the diameter of the smallest coin to be processed. Passes through the second coin collecting port 9 without falling into the second coin collecting port 9.

  The coin C that has passed through the coin collection port 9 passes over the sensor 9b.

  As a result, a coin detection signal is output from the sensor 9b to the CPU 70.

  When the CPU 70 receives the coin detection signal from the sensor 9b, the CPU 70 reads the coin discrimination result written in the RAM 72, and the memory area of the RAM 72 corresponding to the denomination of the coin, that is, the denomination of the coin to be wrapped. The number of coins detected by the sensor 9b is written.

  The coin of the denomination to be packaged is further sent downstream in the coin passage 4 toward the end portion of the coin passage 4.

  The coin of the denomination to be wrapped that has reached the end portion of the coin passage 4 is sent to the coin accumulating portion 10 connected to the end portion of the coin passage 4.

  The denomination coin to be packaged sent to the coin accumulating portion 10 is supported at its peripheral edge by a spiral projection 12 formed on the outer periphery of a pair of rotatable accumulating drums 10a and 10b.

  The CPU 70 outputs a drive signal to the accumulating drum motor 86 at the timing when the denominated coins to be packaged are fed into the coin accumulating unit 10, rotates the pair of accumulating drums 10a and 10b by a predetermined amount, and lowers the coins downward. Move to.

  Similarly, coins of denominations to be packaged pass through the first collection port 8 and the second collection port 9 and each time they pass the sensor 9b, the CPU 70 stores the money to be packaged stored in the RAM 72. The number of seed coins is updated, and the coins are successively fed from the coin passage 4 into the coin accumulating unit 10.

  The pair of stacking drums 10a and 10b is controlled by the CPU 70 to rotate by a predetermined amount each time the denomination of coins to be wrapped is fed into the coin stacking unit 10, and thus the pair of rotatable drums 10a and 10b can rotate. The coins whose peripheral portions are supported by the spiral projections 12 formed on the outer circumferences of the accumulation drums 10a and 10b are successively moved downward as the pair of accumulation drums 10a and 10b rotate. , Coins of denominations to be wrapped are stacked between the pair of stacking drums 10a and 10b.

  Thus, one after another, coins of denominations to be packaged are fed into the coin accumulating unit 10, and as a result, the number of coins of denominations to be packaged stored in the RAM 72 is equal to the number of coins to be packaged. When the determination is made, the CPU 70 sets the number of coins of denominations to be wrapped written in the RAM 72 to zero, and the CPU 70 outputs a drive signal to the stopper solenoid 85 and is provided at the end of the coin passage 4. The rotating shaft 11 c of the stopper 11 is rotated, and the protruding portion 11 a of the stopper 11 is positioned in the coin passage 4.

  At the same time, the CPU 70 outputs a drive stop signal to the first rotating disk motor 80, the second rotating disk motor 81, and the conveyor belt motor 82, and the first rotating disk 2 and the second rotating disk 3 are output. , And the conveyor belt 5 is stopped.

  As a result, subsequent coins are prevented from being sent to the coin accumulating unit 10.

  Thus, even after a predetermined number of coins to be packaged are accumulated between the pair of accumulation drums 10a and 10b, the CPU 70 outputs a drive signal to the accumulation drum motor 85, and the pair of accumulation drums 10a and 10b become one. When a predetermined number of accumulated coins are placed on the upper surface of the shutter 13, the rotation of the pair of accumulation drums 10a and 10b is stopped.

  When a predetermined number of coins of denominations to be wrapped are sent to the coin accumulating unit 10, the CPU 70 outputs a drive signal to the post moving mechanism 88 so that the coin support post 22 is connected to the pair of accumulating drums 10a and 10b. When rotating, the space between the three wrapping rollers 21, 21, 21 is raised so as to be positioned at the standby position immediately below the shutter 13, and when the coin support post 22 reaches the standby position directly below the shutter 13, A drive stop signal is output to the post moving mechanism 88.

  When a drive stop signal is output to the post moving mechanism 88, the CPU 70 outputs a drive signal to the shutter solenoid 87, opens the shutter 13, and the accumulated coins placed on the upper surface of the shutter 13 are stored in the coin support post 22. It is transferred to the upper surface.

  Next, the CPU 70 again outputs a drive signal to the post moving mechanism 88 to lower the coin support post 22 between the three wrapping rollers 21, 21, and 21, and to the wrapping roller drive mechanism 89. Is output, and the three wrapping rollers 21, 21, and 21 are moved so as to be close to each other while being rotated.

  When the coin support post 22 wraps the packaging film around the accumulated coins and reaches a packaging position where the accumulated coins can be packaged, the CPU 70 outputs a drive stop signal to the post moving mechanism 88 and supplies rollers. A drive signal is output to the motor 90 to cause the supply roller 24 to pull out the packaging film from the packaging film roll 23 and supply it between the packaging rollers 21, 21, 21 and the accumulated coins.

  As a result, the accumulated coins are sandwiched between the packaging rollers 21, 21, 21 through the packaging film.

  Further, when the wrapping rollers 21, 21, 21 and the supply roller 24 are rotated and a wrapping film having a predetermined length is wound around the accumulated coins, the CPU 70 sends a drive stop signal to the supply roller motor 90. The rotation of the supply roller 24 is stopped by outputting.

  Even after the rotation of the supply roller 24 is stopped, the packaging rollers 21, 21, 21 are rotated, and the packaging film is pressed against the cutter 25 by the tension generated in the packaging film by the rotation of the packaging rollers 21, 21, 21. To be cut.

  Next, the CPU 70 outputs a drive signal to the caulking claw driving mechanism 91 and caulks the upper and lower ends of the packaging film wound around the accumulated coins by a pair of caulking claws (not shown). A predetermined number of coins of denomination to be packaged produce a wrapping coin roll C that is wrapped in a cylindrical shape by a wrapping film.

  When the wrapping coin roll C is generated, the CPU 70 outputs a drive signal to the crimping claw drive mechanism 91 so that the pair of crimping claws are retracted from between the packaging rollers 21, 21, 21 to the retracted position. At the same time, a drive signal is output to the post moving mechanism 88 to move the coin support post 22 from between the wrapping rollers 21, 21, 21 to the retracted retracted position, and then driven to the wrapping roller driving mechanism 89. A signal is output to stop the rotation of the three packaging rollers 21, 21, 21 and to separate the three packaging rollers 21, 21, 21 from each other.

  As a result, the wrapping coin roll C falls into the chute 50 provided below the wrapping rollers 21, 21, 21, and the upper surface of the support portion 53 a of the first wrapping coin support member 53 and the second wrapping coin support. It is held between the member 54.

  Next, the wrapping coin roll C is subjected to the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a and the second wrapping coin storage subbox group by the wrapping coin distribution means 51 in accordance with an instruction from the operator or selection by the CPU 70. It is sent to one of the packed coin storage sub-boxes 40b.

  The operator designates the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a as the wrapping coin storage subbox to store the wrapping coin roll C, or the CPU 70 according to the wrapping coin storage subbox selection data stored in the ROM 71. However, if the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a is selected as the wrapping coin storage subbox to store the wrapping coin roll C, and the fact is written in the RAM 72, the wrapping coin roll C is generated. Then, the CPU 70 outputs a first drive signal to the distribution means motor 92 to move the first wrapping coin support member 53 of the wrapping coin distribution means 51 from the wrapping coin support position shown in FIG. 8 and 9, it is swung around the support shaft 52 by about 100 to 110 degrees in the clockwise direction.

  As a result, the wrapping coin roll C held between the upper surface of the support portion 53 a of the first wrapping coin support member 53 and the second wrapping coin support member 54 is supported by the first wrapping coin support member 53. It guide | induces on the 1st guide surface 57a of the guide member 57 via the distribution part 53b of the 1st packaging coin support member 53 which makes an obtuse angle and continues with respect to the part 53a.

  The wrapping coin roll C guided onto the first guide surface 57a of the guide member 57 falls into the first wrapping coin storage sub-box 40a through the first opening 41, and the first wrapping coin. It is stored in the storage sub-box 40a.

  On the other hand, the operator designates the second packaging coin storage sub-box 40b as the packaging coin storage sub-box to store the packaging coin roll C, or the packaging coin storage box selection data stored in the ROM 71. Accordingly, the CPU 70 selects the second wrapping coin storage subbox 40b as the wrapping coin storage subbox to store the wrapping coin roll C, and if this is written in the RAM 72, the wrapping coin When the roll C is generated, the CPU 70 outputs a second drive signal to the distribution means motor 92, and the first wrapping coin support member of the wrapping coin distribution means 51 as shown by the broken line in FIG. 53 from the wrapping coin support position shown in FIG. 8 to about 60 degrees clockwise around the support shaft 52 in FIG. 8 and FIG. Over 0 degree, it is swung.

  As a result, the wrapping coin roll C held between the upper surface of the support portion 53 a of the first wrapping coin support member 53 and the second wrapping coin support member 54 is distributed to the first wrapping coin support member 53. It is sent to the part 53 b and held on the distribution part 53 b of the first packaging coin support member 53.

  Thus, when the wrapping coin roll C is held on the distribution portion 53b of the first wrapping coin support member 53, the CPU 70 outputs a third drive signal to the distribution means motor 92, and in FIG. As shown in FIG. 8, the first wrapping coin support member 53 of the wrapping coin distributing means 51 is further swung around the support shaft 52 by about 90 degrees in the clockwise direction in FIGS.

  As a result, the wrapping coin roll C held on the distribution portion 53 b of the first wrapping coin support member 53 is guided onto the second guide surface 57 b of the guide member 57.

  The wrapping coin roll C guided onto the second guide surface 57b of the guide member 57 falls into the second wrapping coin storage sub-box 40b through the second opening 42, and the second wrapping. It is stored in the coin storage sub-box 40b.

  In the same manner, a predetermined number of coins specified as denomination coins to be packed are packed by the operator, and a wrapping coin roll C is generated by the operator. Accordingly, the first wrapping coin storage sub-box group constituting the first wrapping coin storage sub-box group is selectively stored in the second wrapping coin storage sub-box 40b.

  In this way, coins of denominations to be wrapped are successively wrapped, and a wrapping coin roll C including a predetermined number of coins of denominations to be packaged is generated, thereby constituting the first wrapping coin storage sub-box group. Among the one wrapping coin storage sub-box 40a and the second wrapping coin storage sub-box 40b, it is stored in the wrapping coin storage sub-box designated by the operator or the wrapping coin storage sub-box selected by the CPU 70 and put into the coin wrapping machine. When all the coins that have been sent are sent into the coin collection box 31, the lower hopper 45, and the coin stacking unit 10, the number of coins sent to the coin stacking unit 10 written in the RAM 72 is the predetermined number to be wrapped. When it is determined that the number is not less than the number, the CPU 7 prior to the coins accumulated in the coin accumulation unit 10 being transferred to the coin packaging unit 20. 8 outputs a first drive signal to the distribution means motor 92 and moves the first wrapping coin support member 53 of the wrapping coin distribution means 51 from the wrapping coin support position shown in FIG. In FIG. 5, the shaft 52 is swung about 100 to 110 degrees clockwise.

  As a result, fractional coins that are less than the predetermined number to be wrapped are sent from the coin wrapping unit 20 to the chute 50 and are not supported by the first wrapping coin support member 53 of the wrapping coin distribution means 51, but wrapping coins. It passes through the distribution means 51 and is collected via a guide plate 56 in a fraction coin recovery box 55 provided below the wrapping coin distribution means 51.

  On the other hand, as a result of successively wrapping coins of denominations to be wrapped, generating a wrapping coin roll C, and storing them in a wrapping coin storage subbox designated by the operator or a wrapping coin storage subbox selected by the CPU 70, Until then, a part of the wrapping coin roll C stored in the first wrapping coin storage sub-box 40a or the second wrapping coin storage sub-box 40b that has stored the wrapping coin roll C is the first opening. 41 or the second opening 42 and the first wrapping coin sensor 43 or the second opening corresponding to the first wrapping coin storage sub-box 40a provided in the first opening 41. When a wrapping coin detection signal is input to the CPU 70 from the second wrapping coin sensor 44 corresponding to the second wrapping coin storage sub-box 40b provided in the section 42. When the wrapping coin roll C is further stored in the corresponding wrapping coin storage subbox of the first wrapping coin storage subbox group, jamming of the wrapping coin roll C occurs. Since it is determined that the wrapping coin roll C cannot be stored therein, the CPU 70 has stored the wrapping coin roll C until then according to the wrapping coin storage subbox selection data stored in the ROM 71. Instead of the first packaging coin storage sub-box 40a or the second packaging coin storage sub-box 40b, another packaging coin storage sub-box constituting the first packaging coin storage sub-box group, that is, the second packaging coin. The storage sub-box 40b or the first packaging coin storage sub-box 40a is newly Select a wrapped coin storage sub box should be housed roll C, it determines from the wrapped coin sensor corresponding to the wrapped coin storage sub box selected, whether wrapped coin detection signal is input. At this time, the packaging that constitutes the first packaging coin storage sub-box group other than the first packaging coin storage sub-box 40a or the second packaging coin storage sub-box 40b that has been storing the packaging coin roll C until then. Since the wrapping coin roll C is not stored in the coin storage subbox, that is, the second wrapping coin storage subbox 40b or the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a, it corresponds to the selected wrapping coin storage subbox. No wrapping coin detection signal is input from the wrapping coin sensor to be operated. Accordingly, the wrapping coin storage subbox constituting the first wrapping coin storage subbox group is selected from the wrapping coin storage subbox. Since the wrapping coin roll C can be stored, the CPU 70 has the alarm means 10. It is impossible to store the wrapping coin roll C in the wrapping coin storage sub-box that has been storing the wrapping coin roll C until then. In place of the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a or the second wrapping coin storage subbox 40b, the wrapping coin storage subboxes constituting the first wrapping coin storage subbox group were selected. A message that suggests that the packaging coin roll C should be stored in the second packaging coin storage sub-box 40b or the first packaging coin storage sub-box 40a is displayed on the display panel 105.

  Based on the message displayed on the display panel 105, when the operator operates the predetermined key of the operation unit 100 and inputs an agreement to the proposal of the CPU 70, or the message displayed on the display panel 105 On the other hand, when the operator does not input any signal to the operation unit 100 within a predetermined time, the CPU 70 selects from among the packaging coin storage sub-boxes constituting the first packaging coin storage sub-box group. The selected and proposed second packaging coin storage sub-box 40b or first packaging coin storage sub-box 40a is newly determined as the packaging coin storage sub-box in which the packaging coin roll C is to be stored, and the selected packaging The memory area of the RAM 72 that stores data about the coin storage sub-box is stored by the operator. The fact that wrapped coin rolls C constant denomination of the coin is housed, as wrapped coin roll storage data is written.

  On the other hand, the operator operates a predetermined key of the operation unit 100 to put a wrapping coin roll in the second wrapping coin storage subbox 40b or the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a proposed by the CPU 70. When it is input to the operation unit 100 that it does not agree to store C, the first wrapping coin storage sub-box group located in the coin wrapping machine further stores the wrapping coin roll C. Since no wrapping coin storage sub-box is left and it is impossible to continue the coin wrapping process, the CPU 70 causes the alarm means 106 to generate an alarm, and further to the second wrapping coin storage sub-box. In addition to the box 40b or the first packaging coin storage sub-box 40a, a packaging coin storage sub-box that can store the packaging coin roll C The fact that hex is not present, causes the display panel 105, a message requesting to reconsider the operator to be displayed on the display panel 105.

  As a result, the operator operates a predetermined key of the operation unit 100 to put the wrapping coin roll C in the second wrapping coin storage subbox 40b or the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a re-proposed by the CPU 70. Is entered into the operation unit 100 to agree that it is stored, or when the operator does not input any signal to the operation unit 100 within a predetermined time in response to the CPU 70 re-suggestion. The CPU 70 stores the coin coins C of the denominated coins designated by the operator in the memory area of the RAM 72 for storing data about the second packaging coin storage sub-box 40b or the first packaging coin storage sub-box 40a. The fact that it is stored is written as packaging coin roll storage data, and the alarm means 106 generates an alarm. To, the second wrapped coin storage sub box 40b or the first packaging coin accommodating sub box 40a, a message to the effect that storing the wrapped coin roll C, again, is displayed on the display panel 105.

  Thus, instead of the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a or the second wrapping coin storage subbox 40b that has previously stored the wrapping coin roll C, the first wrapping coin storage subbox group is configured. When the second wrapping coin storage subbox 40b or the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a is newly determined as a wrapping coin storage subbox in which the wrapping coin roll C is to be stored, the CPU 70 changes the wrapping coin roll C to The coin wrapping and wrapping is performed in the same manner as the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a or the second wrapping coin storage subbox 40b that forms the first wrapping coin storage subbox group. Other packaging coin storage sub-boxes constituting the first packaging coin storage sub-box group of the coin roll C Resume housing to the generated wrapped coin roll C, it is accommodated in the second wrapped coin storage sub box 40b or the first packaging coin accommodating sub box 40a.

  Thus, as a result of continuing to store the packaging coin roll C in the second packaging coin storage sub-box 40b or the first packaging coin storage sub-box 40a, the second packaging coin storage sub-box group constituting the first packaging coin storage sub-box group is formed. Part of the wrapping coin roll C stored in the wrapping coin storage subbox 40b or the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a is present in the second opening 42 or the first opening 41. The second wrapping coin sensor 44 corresponding to the second wrapping coin storage subbox 40 b provided in the second opening 42 or the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40 a provided in the first opening 41. When a wrapping coin detection signal is input to the CPU 70 from the first wrapping coin sensor 43 corresponding to the When the housed wrapped coins roll C, resulting jamming of the wrapped coin rolls C, more, that the wrapped coin accommodating sub box, can not be accommodated wrapped coins roll C. However, at this time, the inside of the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a and the second wrapping coin storage subbox 40b constituting the first wrapping coin storage subbox group is already filled with the wrapping coin roll C, To the first wrapping coin storage sub-box 40b provided in the first wrapping coin sensor 43 or the second opening 42 corresponding to the first wrapping coin storage sub-box 40a provided in the first opening 41. Since the wrapping coin detection signal is input to the CPU 70 from the corresponding second wrapping coin sensor 44, the first wrapping coin set below the first opening 41 and the second opening 42. In the storage sub-box group, there is no wrapping coin storage sub-box that can store the wrapping coin roll C. You can not kick it. Therefore, the CPU 70 outputs a drive stop signal to the first rotary disk motor 80, the second rotary disk motor 81, and the conveyor belt motor 82, respectively, so that the first rotary disk 2 and the second rotary disk motor 82 are output. The rotation of the rotating disk 3 is stopped, the driving of the conveyor belt 5 is stopped, the coin wrapping process is interrupted, an alarm is generated in the alarm means 106, and the second wrapping coin storage sub-box group is configured. The packaging coin storage box so that the third packaging coin storage sub-box 40c and the fourth packaging coin storage sub-box 40d are set below the first opening 41 and the second opening 42, respectively. 40 is slid to display on the display panel 105 a message urging the operator to place it in the second position.

  On the other hand, the wrapping coin roll C cannot be stored any more in the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a or the second wrapping coin storage subbox 40b constituting the first wrapping coin storage subbox group. The CPU 70 causes the alarm means 106 to generate an alarm, and further stores the wrapping coin roll C in addition to the second wrapping coin storage subbox 40b or the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a. Although the display panel 105 displays that there is no wrapping coin storage sub-box that can be stored on the display panel 105 and the display panel 105 displays a message for reconsidering the operator, The key is still operated and the first proposed by the CPU 70 is still It is input to the operation unit 100 that it is not agreed to store the wrapping coin roll C in the second wrapping coin storage subbox 40b or the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a constituting the wrapping coin storage subbox group. When the first wrapping coin storage sub-box group of the wrapping coin storage box 40 set below the first opening 41 and the second opening 42 is included in the second wrapping coin storage sub-box 40b. Alternatively, since there is no packaging coin storage subbox for storing the packaging coin roll C other than the first packaging coin storage subbox 40a, it is impossible to continue the coin packaging process. However, on the other hand, the wrapping coin roll C is not stored in the third wrapping coin storage subbox 40c and the fourth wrapping coin storage subbox 40d constituting the second wrapping coin storage subbox group. First, the wrapping coin storage sub-box constituting the second wrapping coin storage sub-box group can store the wrapping coin roll C. Therefore, in order to continue the coin wrapping process, the second wrapping coin storage The wrapping coin storage box 40 is attached to the coin wrapping machine so that the wrapping coin roll C can be stored in the third wrapping coin storage subbox 40c or the fourth wrapping coin storage subbox 40d constituting the subbox group. It is necessary. Therefore, the CPU 70 outputs a drive stop signal to the first rotary disk motor 80, the second rotary disk motor 81, and the conveyor belt motor 82, respectively, so that the first rotary disk 2 and the second rotary disk motor 82 are output. The rotation of the rotary disk 3 is stopped, the driving of the conveyor belt 5 is stopped, the coin packaging process is interrupted, an alarm is generated in the alarm means 106, and the second packaging coin storage sub-box group is The wrapping coin storage is such that the third wrapping coin storage sub-box 40c and the fourth wrapping coin storage sub-box 40d are set below the first opening 41 and the second opening 42, respectively. The box 40 is slid to display on the display panel 105 a message that prompts the operator to place the box 40 in the second position.

  As a result, when the operator determines that the predetermined time has elapsed without sliding the packaging coin storage box 40 to the second position, the CPU 70 determines whether the first rotary disk motor 80, A drive stop signal is output to each of the second rotating disk motor 81 and the conveyor belt motor 82 to stop the rotation of the first rotating disk 2 and the second rotating disk 3, and The driving is stopped, and the wrapping process of the coins put into the coin wrapping machine is finished.

  On the other hand, the third packaging coin storage sub-box 40c and the fourth packaging coin storage sub-box 40d constituting the second packaging coin storage sub-box group respectively include the first opening 41 and When the packaging coin storage box 40 is slid so as to be set at the second position so as to be set below the second opening 42, the second formed on the outer wall surface of the packaging coin storage box 40. Is detected by the optical sensor 60, and an identifier detection signal is output to the CPU 70. Therefore, based on the identifier detection signal input from the optical sensor 60, the CPU 70 can determine whether or not the wrapping coin storage box 40 has been slid and set to the second position.

  When the CPU 70 determines that the packaging coin storage box 40 is slid and set at the second position based on the identifier detection signal input from the optical sensor 60, the CPU 70 determines that the first packaging coin storage subbox is used. 40a and the second packaging coin storage sub-box group of the packaging coin roll C are erased while erasing the packaging coin roll storage data written in the memory area of the RAM 72 for storing data about the second packaging coin storage sub-box 40b. The storage process in the 3rd packaging coin storage subbox 40c or the 4th packaging coin storage subbox 40d which comprises is performed.

  That is, first, the CPU 70 stores the generated wrapping coin roll C in the third wrapping coin storage subbox 40c or the fourth wrapping coin storage subbox 40d constituting the second wrapping coin storage subbox group. The display panel 105 displays that it is possible, and the generated wrapping coin roll C is used for the third wrapping coin storage sub-box 40c and the fourth wrapping coin constituting the second wrapping coin storage sub-box group. A message prompting the user to specify in which of the storage sub-boxes 40d should be stored is displayed on the display panel 105.

  As a result, a predetermined key of the operation unit 100 is operated by the operator, and the wrapping coin storage to store the wrapping coin roll C from the wrapping coin storage subboxes constituting the second wrapping coin storage subbox group. When the third wrapping coin storage sub-box 40c or the fourth wrapping coin storage sub-box 40d is designated as the sub-box, at this point, the third wrapping coin storage sub-box group is configured as the third wrapping coin storage sub-box group. The wrapping coin roll C is not stored in either the coin storage subbox 40c or the fourth wrapping coin storage subbox 40d, and the third wrapping coin storage subbox 40c and the fourth wrapping coin storage subbox 40d. Since the wrapping coin roll C can be accommodated in any of the above, the CPU 70 is operated by the operator. The designated third packaging coin storage sub-box 40c or the fourth packaging coin storage sub-box 40d is determined as a packaging coin storage sub-box in which the packaging coin roll C is to be stored. The fact that the wrapping coin roll C of the coin of the denomination designated by the operator is stored in the memory area of the RAM 72 for storing data is written as the wrapping coin roll storage data.

  On the other hand, when the operator does not designate a wrapping coin storage subbox for storing the wrapping coin roll C over a predetermined time, the CPU 70 follows the wrapping coin storage subbox selection data stored in the ROM 71. The third wrapping coin storage sub-box 40c or the fourth wrapping coin storage sub-box 40d is stored in the wrapping coin storage sub-box constituting the second wrapping coin storage sub-box group, and the wrapping coin roll C is stored. The denomination specified by the operator is determined in the memory area of the RAM 72 that stores data on the third packaging coin storage sub-box 40c or the fourth packaging coin storage sub-box 40d. The wrapping coin roll storage that the coin wrapping coin roll C is stored As over data, it writes.

  Thus, the third wrapping coin storage sub-box 40c or the fourth wrapping coin storage sub-box 40d is generated from the wrapping coin storage sub-boxes constituting the second wrapping coin storage sub-box group. CPU 70 causes display panel 105 to display a wrapping coin storage subbox to store the denomination of the coin to be packed and the generated wrapping coin roll. .

  Next, the operator operates a predetermined key of the operation unit 100 to input a start signal.

  Upon receipt of the start signal, the CPU 70 generates a wrapping coin roll C, and the generated wrapping coin roll C is used as the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a or the second wrapping coin storage subbox group. The wrapping coin roll C is generated in the same manner as that stored in the wrapping coin storage subbox 40b.

  Therefore, the operator can restart the coin wrapping process simply by sliding the wrapping coin storage box 40 to the second position.

  The generated wrapping coin roll C falls inside the chute 50 and is held between the upper surface of the support portion 53 a of the first wrapping coin support member 53 and the second wrapping coin support member 54.

  Next, the wrapping coin roll C is directed to either the third wrapping coin storage sub-box 40c or the fourth wrapping coin storage sub-box 40d by the wrapping coin distribution means 51 in accordance with an instruction from the operator or the selection of the CPU 70. ,Sent.

  Here, at this time, the third wrapping coin storage sub-box 40c is located below the first opening 41 of the coin wrapping machine, and the fourth wrapping coin is below the second opening 42. Since the storage sub-box 40d is positioned, the operator designates the third packaging coin storage sub-box 40c as the packaging coin storage sub-box to store the packaging coin roll C, or the packaging stored in the ROM 71. In accordance with the coin storage subbox selection data, the CPU 70 selects the third packaging coin storage subbox 40c as the packaging coin storage subbox to store the packaging coin roll C, and the fact is written in the RAM 72. If the wrapping coin roll C is generated, the CPU 70 outputs a first drive signal to the distribution means motor 92 to wrap the wrapping coin distribution hand. The first wrapping coin support member 53 of 51 is swung from the wrapping coin support position shown in FIG. 8 by about 100 degrees to 110 degrees in the clockwise direction around the support shaft 52 in FIGS. Let

  As a result, the wrapping coin roll C held between the upper surface of the support portion 53 a of the first wrapping coin support member 53 and the second wrapping coin support member 54 is supported by the first wrapping coin support member 53. It is guided onto the first guide surface 57a of the guide member 57 via the distribution portion 53b of the first wrapping coin support member 53 that forms an obtuse angle with the portion 53a, and passes through the first opening 41. Then, it falls into the third wrapping coin storage sub-box 40c and is stored in the third wrapping coin storage sub-box 40c.

  On the other hand, the operator designates the fourth packaging coin storage sub-box 40d as the packaging coin storage sub-box to store the packaging coin roll C, or the packaging coin storage box selection data stored in the ROM 71. Accordingly, the CPU 70 selects the fourth wrapping coin storage subbox 40d as the wrapping coin storage subbox to store the wrapping coin roll C, and if this is written in the RAM 72, the wrapping coin When the roll C is generated, the CPU 70 outputs a second drive signal to the distribution means motor 92, and the first wrapping coin support member of the wrapping coin distribution means 51 as shown by the broken line in FIG. 53 from the wrapping coin support position shown in FIG. 8 to about 60 degrees clockwise around the support shaft 52 in FIG. 8 and FIG. Over 0 degree, it is swung.

  As a result, the wrapping coin roll C held between the upper surface of the support portion 53 a of the first wrapping coin support member 53 and the second wrapping coin support member 54 is distributed to the first wrapping coin support member 53. It is sent to the part 53 b and held on the distribution part 53 b of the first packaging coin support member 53.

  Thus, when the wrapping coin roll C is held on the distribution portion 53b of the first wrapping coin support member 53, the CPU 70 outputs a third drive signal to the distribution means motor 92, and in FIG. As shown in FIG. 8, the first wrapping coin support member 53 of the wrapping coin distributing means 51 is further swung around the support shaft 52 by about 90 degrees in the clockwise direction in FIGS.

  As a result, the wrapping coin roll C held on the distribution portion 53 b of the first wrapping coin support member 53 is guided onto the second guide surface 57 b of the guide member 57, via the second opening 42. Then, it falls into the fourth wrapping coin storage sub-box 40d and is stored in the fourth wrapping coin storage sub-box 40d.

  Similarly, a predetermined number of coins specified as coins of denominations to be packed are packed by an operator, and a wrapping coin roll C is generated by an operator. It is selectively stored in the third packaging coin storage sub-box 40c or the fourth packaging coin storage sub-box 40d constituting the second packaging coin storage sub-box group.

  Thus, one after another, coins of denominations to be wrapped are packaged, a wrapping coin roll C is generated, and an operator instructs from among the wrapping coin storage subboxes constituting the second wrapping coin storage subbox group. As a result of storing in the wrapping coin storage sub-box or the wrapping coin storage sub-box selected by the CPU 70, the third wrapping coin storage sub that has been storing the wrapping coin roll C until then in accordance with the instruction of the operator or the selection of the CPU 70. Part of the wrapping coin roll C stored in the box 40c or the fourth wrapping coin storage sub-box 40d is present in the first opening 41 or the second opening 42, and the third The first packaging coin storage sensor 43 or the fourth packaging coin storage subbox 40d corresponding to the packaging coin storage subbox 40c. When a wrapping coin detection signal is input to the CPU 70 from the corresponding second wrapping coin sensor 44, if the wrapping coin roll C is further stored in the corresponding wrapping coin storage subbox, Since jamming occurs and it is determined that the wrapping coin roll C cannot be stored in the wrapping coin storage subbox any more, the CPU 70 follows the wrapping coin storage subbox selection data stored in the ROM 71. Until then, the wrapping coins constituting the second wrapping coin storage subbox group instead of the third wrapping coin storage subbox 40c or the fourth wrapping coin storage subbox 40d that has stored the wrapping coin roll C From the storage sub-box, the fourth packaging coin storage sub-box 40d or the third packaging coin collection Whether the sub-box 40c is newly selected as a packaging coin storage sub-box for storing the packaging coin roll C, and whether a packaging coin detection signal is input from the packaging coin sensor corresponding to the selected packaging coin storage sub-box Determine whether or not.

  At this time, the generated wrapping coin roll C is stored in the third wrapping coin storage subbox 40c or the fourth wrapping coin storage subbox 40d, and the fourth wrapping coin storage subbox 40d or the third wrapping coin storage subbox 40d. In the packaging coin storage sub-box constituting the second packaging coin storage sub-box group other than the packaging coin storage sub-box 40c, that is, in the fourth packaging coin storage sub-box 40d or the third packaging coin storage sub-box 40c. Since the wrapping coin roll C is not stored, no wrapping coin detection signal is input from the wrapping coin sensor corresponding to the selected wrapping coin storage subbox. A wrapping coin storage subbox selected from the wrapping coin storage subboxes that make up the box group In the box, it is determined that the wrapping coin roll C can be stored, and an alarm is generated in the alarm means 106, and the wrapping coin storage sub-box in which the wrapping coin roll C has been stored until then, Further, it is impossible to store the wrapping coin roll C, and instead of the third wrapping coin storage sub-box 40c or the fourth wrapping coin storage sub-box 40d that has been storing the wrapping coin roll C until then. The packaging coin roll C is placed in the fourth packaging coin storage sub-box 40d or the third packaging coin storage sub-box 40c selected from the packaging coin storage sub-boxes constituting the second packaging coin storage sub-box group. A message for suggesting that it should be stored is displayed on the display panel 105.

  Based on the message displayed on the display panel 105, when the operator operates the predetermined key of the operation unit 100 and inputs an agreement to the proposal of the CPU 70, or the message displayed on the display panel 105 On the other hand, when the operator does not input any signal to the operation unit 100 within a predetermined time, the CPU 70 selects from among the packaging coin storage sub-boxes constituting the second packaging coin storage sub-box group. The selected and proposed fourth packaging coin storage sub-box 40d or third packaging coin storage sub-box 40c is newly determined as the packaging coin storage sub-box in which the packaging coin roll C is to be stored, and the selected packaging. The memory area of the RAM 72 that stores data about the coin storage sub-box is stored by the operator. The fact that wrapped coin rolls C constant denomination of the coin is housed, as wrapped coin roll storage data is written.

  On the other hand, the operator operates a predetermined key of the operation unit 100 to wrap the wrapping coin roll in the fourth wrapping coin storage subbox 40d or the third wrapping coin storage subbox 40c proposed by the CPU 70. When it is input to the operation unit 100 that it does not agree to store C, the second wrapping coin storage sub-box group set below the first opening 41 and the second opening 42 is used. In addition, since no wrapping coin storage sub-box capable of storing the wrapping coin roll C is left, and it is impossible to continue the coin wrapping process, the CPU 70 issues an alarm to the alarm means 106. In addition to the fourth packaging coin storage sub-box 40d or the third packaging coin storage sub-box 40c, the packaging coin roll C is collected. The fact that there is no wrapped coin storage sub box which can be, causes the display panel 105, a message requesting to reconsider the operator to be displayed on the display panel 105.

  As a result, the operator operates a predetermined key of the operation unit 100 to put the wrapping coin roll C in the fourth wrapping coin storage subbox 40d or the third wrapping coin storage subbox 40c re-proposed by the CPU 70. Is entered into the operation unit 100 to agree that it is stored, or when the operator does not input any signal to the operation unit 100 within a predetermined time in response to the CPU 70 re-suggestion. The CPU 70 stores the coin coins C of the denominated coins designated by the operator in the memory area of the RAM 72 for storing the data about the fourth packaging coin storage sub-box 40d or the third packaging coin storage sub-box 40c. The fact that it is stored is written as packaging coin roll storage data, and the alarm means 106 generates an alarm. , The Fourth of wrapped coin storage sub box 40d or the third wrapped coin storage sub box 40c, a message to the effect that storing the wrapped coin roll C, again, is displayed on the display panel 105.

  Thus, instead of the third wrapping coin storage subbox 40c or the fourth wrapping coin storage subbox 40d that has previously stored the wrapping coin roll C, the second wrapping coin storage subbox group is configured. When the fourth wrapping coin storage sub-box 40d or the third wrapping coin storage sub-box 40c is newly determined as a wrapping coin storage sub-box in which the wrapping coin roll C is to be stored, the CPU 70 changes the wrapping coin roll C to The coin wrapping and wrapping is performed in the same manner as that generated and stored in the third wrapping coin storage subbox 40c or the fourth wrapping coin storage subbox 40d constituting the second wrapping coin storage subbox group. Other packaging coin storage sub-boxes constituting the second packaging coin storage sub-box group of the coin roll C Resume housing to the generated wrapped coin roll C, it is accommodated in the fourth wrapped coin storage sub box 40d or the third wrapped coin storage sub box 40c.

  In this way, as a result of continuing to store the wrapping coin roll C in the fourth wrapping coin storage subbox 40d or the third wrapping coin storage subbox 40c, the fourth wrapping coin storage subbox group constitutes the fourth wrapping coin storage subbox group. Part of the wrapping coin roll C stored in the wrapping coin storage subbox 40d or the third wrapping coin storage subbox 40c is present in the second opening 42 or the first opening 41. The second packaging coin sensor 44 corresponding to the fourth packaging coin storage sub-box 40d provided in the second opening 42 or the third packaging coin storage sub-box 40c provided in the first opening 41. When the wrapping coin detection signal is input to the CPU 70 from the first wrapping coin sensor 43 corresponding to the fourth wrapping coin storage sub-box 40d or When the packaging coin roll C is further stored in the third packaging coin storage sub-box 40c, jamming of the packaging coin roll C occurs, and the packaging coin roll C is stored in the packaging coin storage sub-box. It is not possible. However, at this time, the insides of the third packaging coin storage sub-box 40c and the fourth packaging coin storage sub-box 40d constituting the second packaging coin storage sub-box group are already filled with the packaging coin roll C, The first packaging coin sensor 43 corresponding to the third packaging coin storage sub-box 40c provided in the first opening 41 or the fourth packaging coin storage sub-box 40d provided in the second opening 42 Since the wrapping coin detection signal is input to the CPU 70 from the corresponding second wrapping coin sensor 44, the second wrapping coin set below the first opening 41 and the second opening 42. There is no packaging coin storage sub-box that can store the packaging coin roll C in the storage sub-box group, and the coin packaging process continues. And it is impossible. At this time, both or one of the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a and the second wrapping coin storage subbox 40b constituting the first wrapping coin storage subbox group is filled with the wrapping coin roll C. ing.

  Therefore, the wrapping coin storage box so that the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a and the second wrapping coin storage subbox 40b are positioned below the first opening 41 and the second opening 42, respectively. Even if 40 is set at the first position, it is impossible to store the wrapping coin roll C in the wrapping coin storage subbox constituting the first wrapping coin storage subbox group, or The wrapping coin roll C can be stored only in one of the wrapping coin storage subboxes constituting one wrapping coin storage subbox group. Even if it is set at the position, it is necessary to immediately suspend the coin wrapping process again, which is inefficient. A drive stop signal is output to each of the first rotary disk 2 and the second rotary disk 3, and the rotation of the first rotary disk 2 and the second rotary disk 3 is stopped. The driving of the conveyor belt 5 is stopped, the coin wrapping process is interrupted, an alarm is generated in the alarm means 106, the wrapping coin storage box 40 is removed from the coin wrapping machine, and the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a. The packaging coin roll C stored in the second packaging coin storage sub-box 40b, the third packaging coin storage sub-box 40c, and the fourth packaging coin storage sub-box 40d is collected, and the packaging coin storage box 40 is removed. Set again in the coin wrapping machine, or remove the wrapping coin storage box 40 from the coin wrapping machine and store the wrapping coin roll C. The have no new packaging coin accommodating box 40, the PC 10_1 sets the coin wrapping machine, a message prompting the operator to be displayed on the display panel 105.

  On the other hand, if the packaging coin roll C cannot be stored any more in the third packaging coin storage subbox 40c or the fourth packaging coin storage subbox 40d constituting the second packaging coin storage subbox group. Then, the CPU 70 may cause the alarm means 106 to generate an alarm, and further store the wrapping coin roll C in addition to the fourth wrapping coin storage subbox 40d or the third wrapping coin storage subbox 40c. The display panel 105 displays that there is no wrapping coin storage sub-box that can be used, and the operator displays a message on the display panel 105 that asks the operator to reconsider. And the second proposed again by the CPU 70 It is input to the operation unit 100 that it does not agree to store the wrapping coin roll C in the fourth wrapping coin storage subbox 40d or the third wrapping coin storage subbox 40c that constitutes the loaded coin storage subbox group. When the second wrapping coin storage sub-box group set below the first opening 41 and the second opening 42 is the fourth wrapping coin storage sub-box 40d or the third wrapping coin. There is no packaging coin storage subbox that can store the packaging coin roll C other than the storage subbox 40c, and it is impossible to continue the coin packaging process. At this time, both or one of the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a and the second wrapping coin storage subbox 40b constituting the first wrapping coin storage subbox group is filled with the wrapping coin roll C. ing.

  Therefore, the wrapping coin storage box so that the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a and the second wrapping coin storage subbox 40b are positioned below the first opening 41 and the second opening 42, respectively. Even if 40 is set at the first position, it is impossible to store the wrapping coin roll C in the wrapping coin storage subbox constituting the first wrapping coin storage subbox group, or The wrapping coin roll C can be stored only in one of the wrapping coin storage subboxes constituting one wrapping coin storage subbox group. Even if it is set at the position, it is necessary to immediately suspend the coin wrapping process again, which is inefficient. A drive stop signal is output to each of the first rotary disk 2 and the second rotary disk 3, and the rotation of the first rotary disk 2 and the second rotary disk 3 is stopped. The driving of the conveyor belt 5 is stopped, the coin wrapping process is interrupted, an alarm is generated in the alarm means 106, the wrapping coin storage box 40 is removed from the coin wrapping machine, and the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a. The packaging coin roll C stored in the second packaging coin storage sub-box 40b, the third packaging coin storage sub-box 40c, and the fourth packaging coin storage sub-box 40d is collected, and the packaging coin storage box 40 is removed. Set again in the coin wrapping machine, or remove the wrapping coin storage box 40 from the coin wrapping machine and store the wrapping coin roll C. The have no new packaging coin accommodating box 40, the PC 10_1 sets the coin wrapping machine, a message prompting the operator to be displayed on the display panel 105.

  As a result, based on the identifier detection signal input from the optical sensor 60, a predetermined time elapses without the operator removing the wrapping coin storage box 40 from the coin wrapping machine, or the wrapping coin storage box 40 is replaced with the coin wrapping machine. The specified time has elapsed without being set in the coin wrapping machine again, or the wrapping coin storage box 40 is removed from the coin wrapping machine, and the wrapping coin storage box 40 is again wrapped in coin wrapping. When the CPU 70 determines that a predetermined time has passed with the wrapping coin detection signal being input from at least one of the first wrapping coin sensor 43 and the second wrapping coin sensor 44, the CPU 70 Then, the wrapping process of the coins put into the coin wrapping machine is terminated.

  On the other hand, based on the identifier detection signal input from the optical sensor 60 and the determination result regarding whether the packaging coin detection signal is input from the first packaging coin sensor 43 and the second packaging coin sensor 44, the operator The packaging coin storage box 40 is removed from the coin packaging machine, and the first packaging coin storage sub-box 40a, the second packaging coin storage sub-box 40b, the third packaging coin storage sub-box 40c, and the fourth packaging coin storage. The wrapping coin roll C stored in the sub-box 40d is collected, and the wrapping coin storage box 40 is set again in the coin wrapping machine, or the wrapping coin storage box 40 is removed from the coin wrapping machine and packed. It is determined that a new wrapping coin storage box 40 in which the coin roll C is not stored is set in the coin wrapping machine. When the CPU 70 determines whether the packaging coin storage box 40 is set at the first position or the second position based on the identifier detection signal input from the optical sensor 60. Then, according to the determination result, the coin wrapping process is performed in the same manner as the coin wrapping process is started, and the generated wrapping coin roll C is used as the first wrapping coin storage sub-box group. One of the coin storage subbox 40a and the second packaging coin storage subbox 40b or the third packaging coin storage subbox 40c and the fourth packaging coin storage subbox 40d constituting the second packaging coin storage subbox group. Store in one.

  Thus, the coin wrapping and the wrapping coin roll C are continuously stored in the wrapping coin storage sub-box, and all the coins put into the coin wrapping machine are all collected in the coin recovery box 31, the lower hopper 45, the coin stacking unit 10 and the fraction. If it is determined that the coin has been sent into the coin collection box 55, the CPU 70 accesses the RAM 72, and if it is determined by the operator that the first packaging processing mode has been specified, the coin of the denomination specified by the operator. A message to the effect that packaging has been completed is displayed on the display panel 105, and simultaneously, a drive stop signal is output to the first rotary disk motor 80, the second rotary disk motor 81, and the conveyor belt motor 82, respectively. Then, the rotation of the first rotating disk 2 and the second rotating disk 3 is stopped and the driving of the conveyor belt 5 is stopped. Te, and it terminates the packaging process of coins thrown into the coin wrapping machine.

  When the coin wrapping process is finished, the wrapping coin storage box 40 is pulled out from the coin wrapping machine by the operator, the wrapping coin roll C stored in the wrapping coin storage box 40 is taken out by the operator, and fractional coins are collected. The box 55 is pulled out from the coin wrapping machine, and the fractional coins of the denomination to be packaged collected in the fractional coin collection box 55 are collected by the operator.

  Furthermore, the lower hopper 45 is pulled out from the coin wrapping machine by the operator, and coins that can be received in denominations other than denominations to be packaged collected in the lower hopper 45 are collected. Unacceptable coins such as fake coins and foreign coins drawn out from the coin wrapping machine and collected in the coin collection box 31 are collected separately from the accepted coins.

  On the other hand, when the operator has designated the second packaging processing mode, the coin wrapping machine further denominated coins other than those designated by the operator as denomination coins to be wrapped. The packaged coin roll C that is packaged and generated is stored in the packaged coin storage box 40.

  That is, the CPU 70 accesses the RAM 72, and first, accepts the coin of the denomination that has the largest number of detected coins other than the denomination designated as the denomination to be wrapped by the operator. Then, it is determined as a denomination coin to be wrapped, written in the RAM 72, an alarm is generated in the alarm means 106, and the denomination of the second coin to be wrapped is displayed on the display panel 105. .

  Since the wrapping coin rolls C of different denominations are preferably collected separately, in this embodiment, the wrapping coin rolls C of different denominations are configured to be stored in different wrapping coin storage sub-boxes. Therefore, first, the CPU 70 is not set below the first opening 41 and the second opening 42 based on the packing coin roll storage data written in the RAM 72 at that time. It is determined whether or not the wrapping coin roll C is stored in the pair of wrapping coin storage subboxes that constitute the wrapping coin storage subbox group.

  As a result, the wrapping coin roll C is stored in the pair of wrapping coin storage subboxes that constitute the wrapping coin storage subbox group that is not set below the first opening 41 and the second opening 42.

The CPU 70 determines that the third packaging coin storage sub-box 40c and the fourth packaging constitute the second packaging coin storage sub-box group based on the packaging coin roll storage data written in the RAM 72. It is determined whether or not the wrapping coin roll C is stored in the coin storage sub-box 40d.

  As a result, when it is determined that the wrapping coin roll C is not stored in the third wrapping coin storage subbox 40c and the fourth wrapping coin storage subbox 40d, the CPU 70 notifies the alarm means 106. The third packaging coin storage sub-box 40c and the fourth packaging coin storage sub-box 40d, which generate an alarm and constitute the second packaging coin storage sub-box group, have a first opening 41 and a second packaging sub-box 40d, respectively. A message prompting the user to slide the wrapping coin storage box 40 to the second position is displayed on the display panel 105 so as to be positioned below the opening 42.

  On the other hand, the wrapping coin roll C is stored in at least one of the third wrapping coin storage subbox 40c and the fourth wrapping coin storage subbox 40d constituting the second wrapping coin storage subbox group. If it is determined, the CPU 70 causes the alarm means 106 to generate an alarm, removes the wrapping coin storage box 40 from the coin wrapping machine, and the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a and the second wrapping coin storage subbox. 40b, the packaging coin roll C stored in the third packaging coin storage sub-box 40c and the fourth packaging coin storage sub-box 40d is collected, and the packaging coin storage box 40 is set again in the coin packaging machine. Or remove the wrapping coin storage box 40 from the coin wrapping machine and store the wrapping coin roll C Is a new wrapped coin storage box 40 is not, the PC 10_1 sets the coin wrapping machine, a message prompting the operator to be displayed on the display panel 105.

  On the other hand, when packaging of the coin of the denomination designated by the operator is completed based on the identifier detection signal input from the optical sensor 60, the packaging coin storage box 40 is set to the second position, and the second packaging coin A third wrapping coin storage subbox 40c and a fourth wrapping coin storage subbox 40d constituting the storage subbox group are respectively positioned below the first opening 41 and the second opening 42. When it is determined, the CPU 70, based on the wrapping coin roll storage data written in the RAM 72, the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a and the second wrapping that constitute the first wrapping coin storage subbox group. It is determined whether or not the wrapping coin roll C is stored in the coin storage sub-box 40b.

  As a result, when it is determined that the wrapping coin roll C is not stored in the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a and the second wrapping coin storage subbox 40b, the CPU 70 notifies the alarm means 106. The first packaging coin storage sub-box 40a and the second packaging coin storage sub-box 40b, which generate an alarm and constitute the first packaging coin storage sub-box group, have a first opening 41 and a second packaging respectively. A message prompting that the wrapping coin storage box 40 should be slid to the first position is displayed on the display panel 105 so as to be positioned below the opening 42.

  On the other hand, when it is determined that the wrapping coin roll C is stored in at least one of the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a and the second wrapping coin storage subbox 40b, the CPU 70 sets the alarm means 106. , An alarm is generated, and the packaging coin storage box 40 is removed from the coin packaging machine, and the first packaging coin storage sub-box 40a, the second packaging coin storage sub-box 40b, the third packaging coin storage sub-box 40c, and The wrapping coin roll C stored in the fourth wrapping coin storage sub-box 40d is collected, and the wrapping coin storage box 40 is set again in the coin wrapping machine, or the wrapping coin storage from the coin wrapping machine. The box 40 is removed, and a new wrapping coin storage box 40 in which the wrapping coin roll C is not stored is The PC 10_1 sets the packaging machine, a message prompting the operator to be displayed on the display panel 105.

  Here, at least one of the third packaging coin storage sub-box 40c and the fourth packaging coin storage sub-box 40d or at least one of the first packaging coin storage sub-box 40a and the second packaging coin storage sub-box 40b, The CPU 70 is configured to display on the display panel 105 that the wrapping coin storage box 40 should be removed from the coin wrapping machine when it is determined that the wrapping coin roll C is stored. In this case, at least, the wrapping coin roll C can be stored only in the wrapping coin storage subbox constituting each wrapping coin storage subbox group, and the wrapping coin storage process is interrupted. Even if 40 is set to the first position or the first position, the coin wrapping process is immediately started again. Must be interrupted, because inefficiencies.

  In the following, when packaging of the coin of the denomination designated by the operator is completed, the packaging coin storage box 40 is set at the second position, and the third packaging constituting the second packaging coin storage sub-box group. Assume that the coin storage sub-box 40c and the fourth wrapping coin storage sub-box 40d are located below the first opening 41 and the second opening 42, respectively.

  Therefore, the CPU 70 first stores the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a and the second wrapping coin storage that constitute the first wrapping coin storage subbox group based on the wrapping coin roll storage data written in the RAM 72. It is determined whether or not the wrapping coin roll C is stored in the sub box 40b, and both the wrapping coin roll C in the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a and the second wrapping coin storage subbox 40b. Is determined not to be stored, an alarm is generated in the alarm means 106, and the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a and the second wrapping coin storage sub, which constitute the first wrapping coin storage subbox group. Boxes 40b are located below the first opening 41 and the second opening 42, respectively. Sea urchin, a message urging the effect of packaging coin accommodating box 40 to be slid to the first position, is displayed on the display panel 105.

  As a result, based on the identifier detection signal input from the optical sensor 60, when the operator determines that the predetermined time has elapsed without sliding the packaging coin storage box 40 and positioning it in the first position, The CPU 70 outputs a drive stop signal to the first rotary disk motor 80, the second rotary disk motor 81, and the transport belt motor 82, respectively, so that the first rotary disk 2 and the second rotary circle are output. While stopping the rotation of the plate 3, the driving of the conveyor belt 5 is stopped, and the wrapping process of the coins put into the coin wrapping machine is finished.

  On the other hand, when the operator determines that the packaging coin storage box 40 is slid and set at the first position based on the identifier detection signal input from the optical sensor 60, the gold specified by the operator is used. The seeded coins are wrapped and the generated wrapping coin roll C is selectively used as the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a and the second wrapping coin storage subbox 40b constituting the first wrapping coin storage subbox group. In the same manner as stored, one of the first wrapping coin storage sub-box 40a and the second wrapping coin storage sub-box 40b wraps the coin of the denomination to be packed second, and is generated. It is determined as a packaging coin storage sub-box in which the coin roll C is to be stored.

  On the other hand, when determining that the wrapping coin roll C is stored in at least one of the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a and the second wrapping coin storage subbox 40b, the CPU 70 gives an alarm to the alarm means 106. At the same time, the wrapping coin storage box 40 is removed from the coin wrapping machine, and the first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a, the second wrapping coin storage subbox 40b, the third wrapping coin storage subbox 40c, and the fourth wrapping coin storage subbox 40c. The wrapping coin roll C stored in the wrapping coin storage sub-box 40d is collected and the wrapping coin storage box 40 is set again in the coin wrapping machine, or the wrapping coin storage box 40 is removed from the coin wrapping machine. A new wrapping coin storage box 40 in which the wrapping coin roll C is not stored is removed from the coin wrapping machine. The PC 10_1 sets, a message prompting the operator to be displayed on the display panel 105.

  As a result, based on the identifier detection signal input from the optical sensor 60, a predetermined time elapses without the operator removing the wrapping coin storage box 40 from the coin wrapping machine, or the wrapping coin storage box 40 is replaced with the coin wrapping machine. The specified time has elapsed without being set in the coin wrapping machine again, or the wrapping coin storage box 40 is removed from the coin wrapping machine, and the wrapping coin storage box 40 is again wrapped in coin wrapping. When the CPU 70 determines that a predetermined time has passed with the wrapping coin detection signal being input from at least one of the first wrapping coin sensor 43 and the second wrapping coin sensor 44, the CPU 70 Then, the wrapping process of the coins put into the coin wrapping machine is terminated.

  On the other hand, based on the identifier detection signal input from the optical sensor 60 and the determination result regarding whether the packaging coin detection signal is input from the first packaging coin sensor 43 and the second packaging coin sensor 44, the operator The packaging coin storage box 40 is removed from the coin packaging machine, and the first packaging coin storage sub-box 40a, the second packaging coin storage sub-box 40b, the third packaging coin storage sub-box 40c, and the fourth packaging coin storage. The wrapping coin roll C stored in the sub-box 40d is collected, and the wrapping coin storage box 40 is set again in the coin wrapping machine, or the wrapping coin storage box 40 is removed from the coin wrapping machine and packed. It is determined that a new wrapping coin storage box 40 in which the coin roll C is not stored is set in the coin wrapping machine. When the CPU 70 determines whether the packaging coin storage box 40 is set at the first position or the second position based on the identifier detection signal input from the optical sensor 60. Then, according to the determination result, the coin of the denomination to be wrapped second is wrapped and the generated wrapping coin roll C is stored in the same manner as when the denomination coin specified by the operator is started. A wrapping coin storage sub-box group and a wrapping coin storage sub-box to be determined are determined.

  Thus, when the coin of the denomination to be wrapped second is packed and the packaging coin storage subbox to store the generated packaging coin roll C is determined, the CPU 70 determines the data about the packaging coin storage subbox. Is stored in the memory area of the RAM 72 for storing the coin coin C of the denomination to be packed as packing coin roll storage data, and the denomination of the coin to be packed and the second A wrapping coin storage sub-box that stores the wrapping coin roll C of the denomination coin to be packed is displayed on the display panel 105.

  Next, the denomination coins to be packaged secondly and the generation of the generated wrapping coin roll C into the wrapping coin storage sub-box are started.

  First, the CPU 70 outputs drive signals to the lower conveyance belt motor 94, the lift motor 95, and the supply belt motor 96 to drive the conveyance belt 36, the coin lift belt 37, and the supply belt 38.

  As a result, coins other than those designated by the operator as coins of the denomination to be wrapped and recovered in the lower hopper 35 are lifted by the transport belt 36 forming the bottom of the lower hopper 35. Delivered to the belt 37.

  The coins transferred from the transport belt 36 to the coin lift belt 37 are locked at their lower edges by comb-shaped protrusions 37 a provided on the coin lift belt 37, and are placed on the surface of the coin lift belt 37. Then, the coin surface is conveyed from the lower hopper 35 toward the upper hopper 1.

  As the coin lift belt 37 is driven, the coins delivered to the coin lift belt 37 are respectively sent upward and a scraper plate (not shown) provided near the upper end of the coin lift belt 37. ) Is scraped off from the coin lift belt 37 and falls onto the supply belt 38.

  Thus, the coins dropped on the supply belt 38 are respectively supplied into the upper hopper 1 by the supply belt 38 and fall onto the first rotating disk 2 through the opening 1 a of the upper hopper 1.

  The coins that have dropped onto the first rotating disk 2 are sent onto the second rotating disk 3 by the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the first rotating disk 2.

  The coins fed into the second rotating disk 3 move along the annular guide due to the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the second rotating disk 3, and the delivery port provided in the annular guide ( (Not shown) are fed one by one into the coin passage 4.

  The coins fed out from the second rotating disk 3 to the coin passage 4 are transported through the coin passage 4 while being sandwiched between the upper surface of the coin passage 4 and the conveyor belt 5.

  In the direction change part 4a, the coin changes its conveyance direction over the main body of the coin wrapping machine over approximately 90 degrees, and then the coin detection part 7 provided in the coin passage 4 on the downstream side of the direction change part 4a. Sent to.

  The coin optical data and material data are detected by the coin discriminating unit 7, and the optical data and material data of the coin detected by the coin discriminating unit 7 are output from the coin discriminating unit 7 to the CPU 70.

  When the CPU 70 receives the optical data and material data of the coin from the coin discriminating unit 7, it reads out the reference optical data and the reference material data of the coin stored in the ROM 71 in the ROM 71 and is inputted from the coin discriminating unit 7. Compared with the optical data and material data of the coin, it is determined whether the coin is an acceptable coin or an unacceptable coin such as a counterfeit coin or a foreign coin. Further, the denomination of the coin is determined, and the determination result is written in the RAM 72.

  In the case of generating a wrapping coin roll C of denomination coins to be secondly packed, unacceptable coins such as counterfeit coins and foreign coins among the coins put into the coin wrapping machine are already in the coin collection box. Therefore, the CPU 70 determines that the coin is an acceptable coin, determines the denomination of the coin, and writes the determination result in the RAM 72.

  When the coin is further conveyed toward the downstream side in the coin passage 4, and the coin is detected by the sensor 8a, a coin detection signal is output from the sensor 8a to the CPU.

  When generating a wrapping coin roll C of denominated coins to be secondly packed, unacceptable coins such as counterfeit coins and foreign coins among the coins put into the coin wrapping machine are already in the coin collection box Therefore, even if a coin detection signal is input from the sensor 8a, the CPU 70 does not output any signal, and the coin passes through the first coin recovery port 8 and is detected by the sensor 8b. Detected.

  When the sensor 8b detects a coin, a coin detection signal is output to the CPU.

  When the CPU 70 receives the coin detection signal from the sensor 8b, the CPU 70 reads the coin discrimination result written in the RAM 72, and reads the number of coins detected by the sensor 8b into the memory area of the RAM 72 corresponding to the denomination of the coin. Write.

  The coin is further conveyed toward the downstream side in the coin passage 4, and when the coin is detected by the sensor 9a, a coin detection signal is output to the CPU 70 from the sensor 9a.

  When the CPU 70 receives a coin detection signal from the sensor 9 a, the CPU 70 reads the coin discrimination result stored in the RAM 72 and reads the denomination of the coin to be wrapped stored in the RAM 72.

  The CPU 70 matches the denomination of the coin to be packed with the second denomination of the coin based on the coin determination result stored in the RAM 72 and the denomination of the coin to be packed stored in the RAM 72. It is determined whether or not to do.

  When it is determined that the denomination of the coin matches the denomination of the coin to be wrapped second, and it is determined that the denomination of the coin does not match the denomination of the coin to be wrapped The CPU 70 outputs a drive signal to the second solenoid 84 to rotate the second projecting member 9d from the retracted position retracted into the guide rail 6a to the projecting position projecting into the coin passage 4.

  As a result, the coin determined that the denomination does not match the denomination of the coin to be wrapped second is pushed toward the guide rail 6b by the second projecting member 9d, and the inner wall of the guide rail 6a And is sent to the second coin collecting port 9 without being guided by the inner wall of the guide rail 6a.

  The second coin recovery port 9 has a distance L5 between the inner wall of the guide rail 6a and the tip of the second protruding member 9d at the protruding position so that the inner wall of the guide rail 6a and the second coin recovery port 9 Since it is formed so as to be slightly larger than the distance L6 with the edge on the guide rail 6a side, the coin determined to be inconsistent with the denomination of the coin to be wrapped second is The edge on the guide rail 6a side is not supported by the upper surface of the coin passage 4 between the guide rail 6a and the second coin recovery port 9, falls into the second coin recovery port 9, and the second The coins are collected in the lower hopper 35 through the second coin collecting passage 32 connected to the coin collecting port 9.

  On the other hand, when it is determined that the denomination of the coin detected by the sensor 8a matches the denomination of the coin to be wrapped second, the CPU 70 outputs no signal.

  As a result, the coin determined that the denomination matches the denomination of the coin to be packaged secondly, both edges are between the guide rail 6a and the second coin collecting port 9. While being supported by the upper surface of the coin passage 4 and the upper surface of the coin passage 4 between the second coin recovery port 9 and the guide rail 6b, the second coin recovery port 9 is sent to the second coin recovery port 9. The distance L4 between the inner wall of the guide rail 6a and the edge of the second coin recovery port 9 on the guide rail 6b side is formed to be slightly smaller than the diameter of the smallest coin to be processed. Therefore, the coin passes through the second coin collecting port 9 without falling into the second coin collecting port 9.

  The coin C that has passed through the coin collection port 9 passes over the sensor 9b and is detected by the sensor 9b.

  When the sensor 9b detects a coin, a coin detection signal is output to the CPU.

  When the CPU 70 receives a coin detection signal from the sensor 9b, the CPU 70 reads out the coin discrimination result written in the RAM 72, and the RAM 72 corresponding to the denomination of the coin, that is, the denomination of the coin to be wrapped second. The number of coins detected by the sensor 9b is written in the memory area.

  The coin of the denomination to be packaged second is further sent downstream in the coin passage 4 toward the end of the coin passage 4.

  The coin of the denomination to be wrapped second that has reached the end portion of the coin passage 4 is sent to the coin accumulating portion 10 connected to the end portion of the coin passage 4.

  The coin of the second denomination sent to the coin stacking unit 10 is accumulated in the same manner as the coin designated as the denomination coin to be wrapped by the operator, and a predetermined number of accumulated coins are collected. Generated.

  The generated accumulated coins are sent to the coin wrapping unit 20 in the same manner as the coins designated as denomination coins to be wrapped by the operator, and are wrapped around by the wrapping rollers 21, 21, 21. The film is wound, and the upper and lower ends of the packaging film wound around the accumulated coins are crimped, and a wrapping coin roll C of a denomination coin to be packaged second is generated.

  Thus, the generated wrapping coin roll C wraps the coin of the denomination designated by the operator, and the generated wrapping coin roll C is used as the first wrapping coin storage sub-box group. One of the coin storage subbox 40a and the second packaging coin storage subbox 40b or the third packaging coin storage subbox 40c and the fourth packaging coin storage subbox 40d constituting the second packaging coin storage subbox group. One of the first wrapping coin storage sub-box 40a and the second wrapping coin storage sub-box 40b constituting the first wrapping coin storage sub-box group or the second wrapping coin storage in the same manner as stored in one side. Third packaging coin storage sub-box 40c and fourth packaging coin storage constituting the sub-box group It is selectively accommodated in one of the probe box 40d.

  Hereinafter, coins of denominations designated by the operator are packaged, and the generated wrapping coin roll C is used as a first wrapping coin storage sub-box 40a and a second wrapping coin storage sub-box in the wrapping coin storage box 40. 40b, the second denomination coin storage sub-box 40c or the fourth package coin storage sub-box 40d is packed in the second denomination type coin in the same manner as it is selectively stored. The generated wrapping coin roll C is a first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a, a second wrapping coin storage subbox 40b, a third wrapping coin storage subbox 40c, or a fourth wrapping coin storage box 40. It is selectively stored in the wrapping coin storage sub-box 40d.

  In this way, the coins of the denominations to be secondly wrapped are successively wrapped, a wrapping coin roll C containing a predetermined number of coins is generated, stored in a predetermined wrapping coin storage sub-box, and designated by the operator. After the coins of denominations to be wrapped are completely packed, all the coins sent from the lower hopper 45 to the second rotating disk 3 via the upper hopper 1 are transferred to the lower hopper 45, the coin accumulating unit 10 and When it is sent into the fraction coin collection box 55, the coin of the denomination designated as the denomination to be wrapped by the operator is wrapped, and when the wrapping coin roll C is generated, the receipt collected in the lower hopper 45 is received. The wrapping of denomination coins and the generation of the wrapping coin roll C with the most possible coins detected is completed.

  When the second packaging processing mode is selected by the operator, when the coin of the denomination designated as the denomination to be packaged by the operator is packaged and the packaging coin roll C is generated, the lower hopper 45. When the wrapping of the denominated coins collected in 45 and the generation of the wrapping coin roll C having the highest number of detected coins is completed, the denomination designated as the denomination to be packed by the operator Wrapping the coins and generating the wrapping coin roll C, the wrapping process of the coins of the denominated coins with the second largest number of detected coins collected in the lower hopper 45 is started Is done.

  That is, when the CPU 70 first accesses the RAM 72 and wraps the coin of the denomination designated as the denomination to be wrapped by the operator and generates the wrapping coin roll C, it is collected in the lower hopper 45. The coin with the second largest number of accepted coins is selected, the third is determined as the coin of the denomination to be wrapped, written to the RAM 72, and the alarm means 106 is alarmed. And the third denomination of the coin to be wrapped is displayed on the display panel 105.

  Thus, when the denomination of the coin to be packaged third is determined, the CPU 70 wraps the coin of the denomination to be packaged second and stores the generated wrapping coin roll C in the first wrapping coin storage. One of the first packaging coin storage sub-box 40a and the second packaging coin storage sub-box 40b constituting the sub-box group, or the third packaging coin storage sub-box 40c constituting the second packaging coin storage sub-box group and In the same way as selectively stored in one of the fourth packing coin storage sub-boxes 40d, the third type of coin to be packed is packed and the generated packing coin roll C is stored. A coin storage sub-box is determined, and drive signals are output to the lower conveyor belt motor 94, the lift motor 95, and the supply belt motor 96, so that the conveyor belt 36, the coin belt Seatbelt 37 and drives the feed belt 38.

  As a result, coins other than those designated by the operator collected in the lower hopper 35 as denomination coins to be wrapped are transferred to the coin lift belt 37 by the transport belt 36 that forms the bottom of the lower hopper 35. Delivered.

  The coins transferred from the transport belt 36 to the coin lift belt 37 are locked at their lower edges by comb-shaped protrusions 37 a provided on the coin lift belt 37, and are placed on the surface of the coin lift belt 37. Then, the coin surface is conveyed from the lower hopper 35 toward the upper hopper 1.

  As the coin lift belt 37 is driven, the coins delivered to the coin lift belt 37 are respectively sent upward and a scraper plate (not shown) provided near the upper end of the coin lift belt 37. ) Is scraped off from the coin lift belt 37 and falls onto the supply belt 38.

  Thus, the coins dropped on the supply belt 38 are respectively supplied into the upper hopper 1 by the supply belt 38 and fall onto the first rotating disk 2 through the opening 1 a of the upper hopper 1.

  The coins that have dropped onto the first rotating disk 2 are sent onto the second rotating disk 3 by the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the first rotating disk 2.

  The coins fed into the second rotating disk 3 move along the annular guide due to the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the second rotating disk 3, and the delivery port provided in the annular guide ( (Not shown), one coin at a time in the coin passage 4, and the third denominated coin is selectively used in the same manner as the second denominated coin, The coins are sent to the coin accumulating unit 10 to generate an accumulated coin in which a predetermined number of coins are accumulated.

  The generated accumulated coins are sent to the coin wrapping unit 20 in the same manner as the coins of the denominated second type, and the wrapping film is wound around the wrapping rollers 21, 21, 21, The upper and lower ends of the packaging film wound around the accumulated coins are crimped, and a denomination coin wrapping coin roll C to be packaged third is generated.

  The wrapping coin roll C generated in this way is stored by the CPU 70 in a wrapping coin storage subbox determined in advance.

  Further, the coin of the second denomination is packaged, and in the same manner as the generated packaging coin roll C, the first packaging coin storage sub-box 40a, the second packaging coin storage sub-box 40b, the third In the packaging coin storage sub-box 40c and the fourth packaging coin storage sub-box 40d, the coins of the denominations to be packaged are sequentially packaged, and the packaging coin roll C to be generated is stored. A coin storage sub-box is determined, and the generated wrapping coin roll C is stored.

  Similarly, after all the accepted coins put into the coin wrapping machine have been packed with the denomination coins to be packed specified by the operator, the number of coins stored in the lower hopper 45 is in descending order. The wrapping coin rolls C are sequentially generated and stored in a predetermined wrapping coin storage sub-box.

  Thus, when the packaging process of all the accepted coins input to the coin wrapping machine, the generation process of the wrapping coin roll C, and the storage process in the wrapping coin storage box are completed, the CPU 70 performs the first rotating disk motor 80. A drive stop signal is output to each of the second rotary disk motor 81 and the conveyor belt motor 82 to stop the rotation of the first rotary disk 2 and the second rotary disk 3, and the conveyor belt. The driving of 5 is stopped, and the wrapping process of the coins put into the coin wrapping machine is finished.

  When the coin wrapping process is finished, the wrapping coin storage box 40 is pulled out from the coin wrapping machine by the operator, the wrapping coin roll C stored in the wrapping coin storage box 40 is taken out by the operator, and fractional coins are collected. The box 55 is pulled out from the coin wrapping machine, and the fractional coins of the denomination to be packaged collected in the fractional coin collection box 55 are collected by the operator.

  Furthermore, the lower hopper 45 is pulled out from the coin wrapping machine by the operator, and coins that can be received in denominations other than denominations to be packaged collected in the lower hopper 45 are collected. Unacceptable coins such as fake coins and foreign coins drawn out from the coin wrapping machine and collected in the coin collection box 31 are collected separately from the accepted coins.

  According to this embodiment, the wrapping coin storage box 40 has a first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a, a second wrapping coin storage subbox 40b, a third wrapping coin storage subbox 40c and a second wrapping coin storage box 40c having the same internal volume. Since it is divided into four wrapping coin storage sub-boxes 40d, even when a wrapping coin storage box having the same internal volume is used, a predetermined denomination of denominations is placed in the wrapping coin storage box that is not divided into a plurality of sub-boxes. Compared to the case where coins are packed and the generated wrapping coin roll C is stored, a large number of wrapping coin rolls C can be stored, and coins are efficiently packaged to generate a wrapping coin roll. It becomes possible.

  That is, when storing the generated wrapping coin roll in the wrapping coin storage box that is not divided into a plurality of sub-boxes, the wrapping coin roll stored in the wrapping coin storage box is the opening of the coin wrapping machine. The sensor is provided at the opening of the coin wrapping machine, even though it is possible to store the wrapping coin roll in the wrapping coin storage box. The coin roll is detected, and it is easy to determine that the inside of the wrapping coin recovery box is filled with the generated wrapping coin roll. Therefore, the operation of the coin wrapping machine is frequently stopped and stored in the wrapping coin storage box. However, according to the present embodiment, there is a problem that it is very inefficient. The first wrapping coin storage subbox 40a, the second wrapping coin storage subbox 40b, the third wrapping coin storage subbox 40c, and the fourth wrapping coin storage subbox 40d have the same internal volume. Even if the wrapping coin roll C is stacked and raised in the wrapping coin storage subbox below the first opening 41 or the second opening 42, it is divided into a plurality of subboxes.
