Abstract

The invention provides an apparatus for processing a paper money, which enables a frequency at which an operation stops temporarily for collection work of paper money when one storage becomes full to be reduced. The apparatus for processing the paper money is characterized in that if a display operation unit 15 receives an input indicating that a storage 8d among storages 8a to 8d is to be used as an all-denomination-currency storage for storing all the denominations of the paper money thrown during payment transaction processing, the paper money is stored in the storage 8d in storing the paper money thrown in a paper money receiving unit 2 during the payment transaction processing when the paper money should be stored in the storage 8a on the basis of its denomination, but the target storage 8a is already full.

Description

  The present invention relates to a banknote processing apparatus installed in a financial institution or the like, and more particularly to a technique for changing the operation of each storage for storing banknotes according to the use of the apparatus.

  The conventional banknote processing apparatus separates the banknotes inserted into the deposit / withdrawal port at the time of deposit transaction, conveys the banknotes to the banknote discriminating unit through the main banknote transport path, and determines the authenticity and denomination by the banknote discriminating unit. Banknotes that were genuine tickets are temporarily stored in a temporary storage, and when a deposit transaction is established, the banknotes that are temporarily stored are determined again, and then a recycling store, a reject store, or a banknote is stored for each denomination. It is transported and stored in any of the safes that are stored separately (see, for example, Patent Document 1).

Japanese Unexamined Patent Publication No. 2000-11237 (paragraph “0033”, FIG. 3)

  However, in the conventional technology described above, a safe, a recycle box, and a reject box are provided, but the usage of each box cannot be changed. On the other hand, the frequency of various transactions with customers varies depending on the area where the automatic transaction apparatus is installed. In an area where there are many deposit transactions, for example, a deposit box that stores banknotes that are frequently deposited, such as 10,000 yen bills. Even though only one place is full and the other places are not full, it is necessary to collect banknotes from that one place, and the automatic transaction device must be stopped. There is a problem that it falls.

  An object of the present invention is to provide means for solving the above problems.

In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a money receiving unit that accepts money input by a customer in a deposit transaction and accumulates money to be paid to the customer in a withdrawal transaction, and a withdrawal transaction that is input to the money receiving unit. Banknote storage for storing money of denominations that are not used in the bank, a plurality of storages for storing money of denominations used for withdrawal transactions for each denomination, and an operation unit for the staff to perform input operations When the input to change the denomination of the money to be stored is made to the specific storage of the plurality of storages by the operation unit, the input content is stored. The storage unit has a storage unit, and the storage unit stores a specific storage unit among the plurality of storage units as a deposit money storage unit that stores money of a denomination that is not used in a withdrawal transaction. Make money storage a denomination that is not used in the withdrawal transaction If the denomination of money entered into the money accepting part is a denomination that is not used in a withdrawal transaction, the denomination of that money is mixed. Instead, the money is stored in the deposit money storage .

  As a result, the present invention makes it possible to store all denominations of banknotes in a part of a plurality of storages, so that the storage of the storage destination according to the denomination of banknotes is already full. However, since it can be stored in a storage that stores all denominations of banknotes, it is possible to reduce the frequency of banknote collection work due to the storage being full, and to improve the work efficiency. can get.

  Reference numeral 14 denotes a storage unit that stores a control program, a processing result by the control unit 13, and the number of banknotes stored in the storages 8a to 8d.

  The storage unit 14 includes a counter for storing the number of banknotes stored in the storages 8a to 8d, the reject banknote storage 10, the forgotten banknote storage 11, and the damaged bill storage 12, and the control unit 13 The number of banknotes transported to the forgotten banknote storage 11 and the lost banknote storage 12 is counted, and the counted value is stored in addition to the counter value.

  Furthermore, the storage unit 14 stores the maximum number of banknotes that can be stored in the storage boxes 8a to 8d, the reject banknote storage 10, the forgotten banknote storage 11, and the damaged banknote storage 12, and the maximum number and the counter described above. It is assumed that the free capacity of the number of banknotes that can be stored from the current state based on is stored.

  Reference numeral 15 denotes a display operation unit, which includes a display screen such as an LCD and an operation unit such as an audit key that is inserted into a touch panel having a transparent input key on its surface and switches the operation mode of the automatic transaction apparatus 1. Become.

  The display operation unit 15 is an operation mode for performing transaction processing with a customer during business hours, during which a transaction selection screen in which various transaction keys such as deposit transaction and withdrawal transaction are arranged is displayed, and an audit key is displayed. Is switched to an operation mode for executing processing exclusively for financial institution staff, in order to execute processing such as loading and collection of banknotes in the automatic transaction apparatus 1, or in the storage boxes 8a to 8d. An operation screen for changing the banknote storage destination such as changing the denomination of the banknote to be stored is displayed, and information defined in the key pressed on the operation screen is received.

  The operation of the above configuration will be described.

 In this embodiment, the clerk switches in advance to an operation mode for executing processing exclusively for the clerk by the display operation unit 15, and the display operation unit 15 causes the storage 8d to store all denomination banknotes. When it is assumed that an input operation for storing is performed, and the control unit 13 recognizes the input operation, the storage unit 14 stores the input content of the storage 8d as a denomination banknote storage for storing all denomination banknotes. In the subsequent processing, the storage 8d is operated as a full denomination bill storage.

  FIGS. 3A and 3B are explanatory views showing the storing of banknotes in stages. FIG. 3A shows a state in which banknotes are inserted into the banknote receiving unit 2, FIG. 3B shows a state in which banknotes are accumulated in the temporary storage unit 7, and FIG. Shows a state in which banknotes are conveyed from the temporary holding unit 7 to the storage 8d.

  Here, the operation in the case of storing banknotes in the storage 8d is shown, and it is assumed that the banknotes are already stored in the storages 8a and 8c and the non-payment storage 12 in full.

  The control unit 13 of the automatic transaction apparatus 1 stands by displaying a transaction selection screen on the display operation unit 15, and when the customer presses the deposit transaction key from the transaction selection screen, the customer's transaction card is displayed on a card reader (not shown). After recognizing that the transaction card has been inserted, a screen that prompts the user to insert the banknote into the banknote receiving unit 2 is displayed on the display operation unit 15.

  The customer inserts banknotes into the banknote receiving unit 2 as shown in FIG.

  The control unit 13 separates and feeds out the banknotes inserted into the banknote receiving unit 2 one by one and transports them to the banknote discrimination unit 5 through the transport path 3.

  When the banknote discriminating unit 5 discriminates the banknotes and confirms that the banknotes are correct, the control unit 13 conveys the banknotes to the temporary storage unit 7 and accumulates them as shown in FIG. To do.

  The control unit 13 counts the number of banknotes identified by the banknote discrimination unit 5, stores the counted number in the storage unit 14 as a reserved number before deposit transaction, and reads the stored reserved number before deposit transaction, A transaction confirmation screen is displayed on the display operation unit 15 with a reserved number before deposit transaction and a message asking whether or not to perform a deposit transaction, a “Yes” key for inputting whether or not the deposit transaction is executed, a “No” key, and the like.

  When the customer presses the “Yes” key, the control unit 13 separates the banknotes one by one from the temporary storage unit 7, feeds them to the transport path 3, and transports them to the banknote discrimination unit 5.

  The control unit 13 discriminates whether or not the banknote discriminating unit 5 is torn or dirty to the extent that the banknote cannot be used as a banknote to be paid to the customer in a withdrawal transaction, and the denomination can be discriminated from the discrimination result. A non-paid ticket with dirt that cannot be used for gold transactions is transported to the non-slip ticket storage box 12, while a genuine ticket without tears or dirt is transported to any of the storage boxes 8 a to 8 d.

  At this time, the banknote is transported and stored as it is to a place where banknotes are not stored, such as the storage box 8b in FIG. 3, and the banknotes are transferred to the storage boxes 8a and 8c in FIG. If it is already full, it is transported and stored in the storage 8d.

  Specifically, based on the denomination of the banknote separated from the temporary storage unit 7 and identified by the banknote discrimination unit 5, the control unit 13 uses the counters of the storage boxes 8a to 8c corresponding to the denomination of the banknote. It is determined whether or not the banknote can be stored, and it is determined that the banknote transport destination is the storage box 8b and the banknote can be stored without being full from the counter of the stored storage box 8b. Then, it conveys and stores in the storage 8b.

  On the other hand, when the banknote transport destination is, for example, the storage 8a that is already full, it is determined that the banknote cannot be stored from the counter of the storage 8a stored in the storage unit 14, and then stored. After confirming that banknotes can be stored in the storage box 8d from the counter of the storage box 8d, the banknotes are conveyed and stored in the storage box 8d.

  In this way, banknotes already stored in a full storage such as the storage 8a are conveyed to the storage 8d that is set to store all denominations in this embodiment.

  In addition, the banknotes separated from the temporary holding unit 7 and identified by the banknote discrimination unit 5 are banknotes that are stored in the non-payment bill storage box 12 due to damages or wrinkles that cannot be used for the withdrawal transaction. However, if the damaged bill storage 12 is already full, it is transported and stored in the storage 8d.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, one of a plurality of storages is used as a full denomination banknote storage that stores all denominations of banknotes, and other types of banknotes of predetermined denominations are stored. When there are banknotes that cannot be stored because the storage is full, the banknotes are stored in a storage with all denominations stored in the banknotes, so only the banknotes with specific denominations are full. By collecting the banknotes from the storage that is full, it is possible to reduce the temporary stop of the automatic transaction apparatus and improve the work efficiency.

  In addition, even when the non-payment bill storage is full, because the non-debitable bill storage can be used to store non-payable tickets that cannot be used for withdrawal transactions, It is possible to eliminate the temporary stop of the operation and improve the work efficiency.

  Although the structure of the automatic transaction apparatus of a present Example is the same as that of the said Example 1, in a present Example, the deposit | payment banknote storage (payment | payment) which stores a deposit | depositing banknote in two storages in storage 8a-8d. This is different from the first embodiment in that it is a money storage.

  In the present embodiment, the clerk switches to the operation mode for executing the process exclusively for the clerk by the display operation unit 15 in advance, and for example, the input operation for determining the banknotes to be stored in the respective storages 8a to 8d is stored in the storage 8c. Assume that input is made with a banknote to be stored as a 2,000-yen bill and a banknote stored in the storage 8d as a 5,000-yen bill.

  And the control part 13 memorize | stores the input content in the memory | storage part 14, and uses the storage 8c and 8d with the deposit banknote storage which accommodates a deposit-only banknote in subsequent processes.

  When performing the deposit transaction processing, the control unit 13 separates and feeds out the banknotes inserted into the banknote receiving unit 2 one by one and transports them to the banknote discrimination unit 5 through the transport path 3.

  The control part 13 discriminate | determines a banknote by the banknote discrimination part 5, will confirm that a banknote is a correct note from the discrimination result, will convey a banknote to the temporary storage part 7, and will accumulate | store it.

  The control unit 13 displays the transaction confirmation screen of the first embodiment on the display operation unit 15, and separates the banknotes one by one from the temporary storage unit 7 when the “Yes” key is pressed by the customer. 3 is fed to the banknote discrimination unit 5.

  The control unit 13 discriminates whether or not the banknote discriminating unit 5 is torn or dirty to the extent that the banknote cannot be used as a banknote to be paid to the customer in a withdrawal transaction, and the denomination can be discriminated from the discrimination result. A non-paid ticket with dirt that cannot be used for gold transactions is transported to the non-slip ticket storage box 12, while a genuine ticket without tears or dirt is transported to any of the storage boxes 8 a to 8 d.

  At this time, when the bill is a 2000 yen bill that is a deposit-only bill, the bill is transported to the storage 8c, and when it is 5,000 yen that is a deposit-only bill, it is transported to the storage 8d to store each bill.

  As explained above, in this embodiment, when a deposit-only banknote such as a 2,000 yen bill or a 5,000 yen bill that is not used for a withdrawal transaction is stored in a non-payment storage in a store with many deposit transactions. If the ticket storage is almost full, the two storages will be used to store banknotes for deposit, one will store 2,000 yen bills and the other will store 5,000 yen bills. By doing so, it is possible to reduce the temporary stopping of the automatic transaction apparatus for the attendant to collect banknotes by filling up the non-performing bill storage, and it is possible to improve business efficiency .

  In addition, when stored in a non-contained bill storage, a plurality of denominations of bills are mixed and stored, so it is necessary to separate the bills by denomination during the tightening process. In the example, the deposit-only banknotes are stored in the storage for each denomination, so the deposit-only banknotes stored in the loss ticket storage are reduced, and the banknotes in the banknote storage are separated by denomination during the tightening process. It is possible to reduce the time and effort of the system and to improve the work efficiency.

  Although the structure of the automatic transaction apparatus of a present Example is the same as that of the said Example 1, in this Example, the banknote discriminated from the reject banknote among the banknotes withdrawn from storage 8a-8d is rejected banknote storage. 10 is different from that in FIG.

  In the present embodiment, the clerk switches to the operation mode for executing the process exclusively for the clerk by the display operation unit 15 in advance, and the input operation for determining the banknotes to be stored in the non-slip ticket storage unit 12 causes the banknotes to be output to the non-slip ticket storage unit 12. It is assumed that an input for storing reject banknotes generated in the gold transaction process is performed.

  And the control part 13 memorize | stores the input content in the memory | storage part 14, and it operates so that the rejection banknote which generate | occur | produced by the payment | withdrawal transaction process may be accommodated also in the loss ticket accommodating part 12 by subsequent processes.

  The operation of the configuration of this embodiment will be described.

  FIG. 4 is an explanatory view showing the flow of banknotes when rejected banknotes are stored in the withdrawal transaction processing of the third embodiment, (a) is a state before feeding banknotes from the storage 8a, and (b) is stored. A state in which the banknotes fed from the storage 8a are transported to the banknote receiving unit and the temporary storage unit 7, (c) is a transport path of reject banknotes accumulated in the temporary storage unit 7, and (d) is a state of transporting the reject banknotes. ing.

  The control unit 13 stands by displaying a transaction selection screen on the display operation unit 15, and when the customer presses the withdrawal transaction key, a word prompting the input of the withdrawal amount, its input field, and a numeric keypad for input Display the withdrawal amount input screen.

  When the customer inputs the withdrawal amount according to the withdrawal amount input screen, the control unit 13 starts paying out banknotes according to the input withdrawal amount.

  In this embodiment, the banknotes are taken out from the storage 8a, and the fed banknotes are conveyed to the banknote discrimination unit 5. From the banknote discrimination result by the banknote discrimination unit 5, the banknotes are received to the banknote acceptance unit 2 if the banknotes are correct. The rejected banknotes are conveyed and accumulated in the temporary storage unit 7. As a result, from the state in which the banknotes shown in FIG. 4 (a) are still accumulated in the storage 8a, as shown in FIG. And the rejected banknotes are accumulated in the temporary storage unit 7 and divided into the respective states.

  Here, when the banknote corresponding to the withdrawal amount is conveyed to the banknote receiving unit 2, the banknote is paid to the customer by opening a shutter of the banknote receiving unit 2 (not shown), and the result of the withdrawal transaction is printed by a printer (not shown). The completed slip is discharged and the withdrawal transaction is terminated.

  Next, the control unit 13 stores the reject banknotes accumulated in the temporary storage unit 7 in the reject banknote storage 10 or the damaged bill storage 12 and stores the reject banknote storage 10 stored in the storage unit 14. It is determined whether the reject banknote storage 10 is full or not, and when the reject banknote 10 is empty and the reject banknote can be transported, the banknotes in the temporary storage unit 7 are transported to the reject banknote storage 10. And store.

  On the other hand, when the reject banknote storage 10 is full, the reject banknote is transported to the damaged bill storage 12 as shown by the arrow in FIG. Then, as shown in FIG. 4 (d), all reject banknotes in the temporary storage unit 7 are stored in the non-payment storage 12.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, banknotes fed out from the storage in the withdrawal transaction process are identified by the banknote discriminating unit, and the banknotes that have been rejected are also stored in the banknote storage as well as the reject banknote storage. Since the reject banknote storage that normally stores reject banknotes is small, the reject banknote storage is full and the clerk is full of reject banknotes in the reject banknote storage It is possible to reduce the temporary stoppage of the automatic transaction apparatus in order to perform the collection operation, and to obtain the effect that the business efficiency can be improved.

  In the third embodiment, the case where the banknote storage is used as the transfer destination of reject banknotes in the withdrawal transaction processing is described as an example. However, the present invention is not limited to the banknote storage, for example, one of a plurality of storages. May be the transport destination, or may be a banknote storage forgetting to remove.

  The configuration of the present embodiment is the same as that of the first embodiment, but is different in that, in addition to the forgotten banknote storage 11, the lost bill storage 12 is added as a storage location for forgotten banknotes.

  Here, the clerk switches to the operation mode for executing the process exclusively for the clerk by the display operation unit 15 in advance, and in addition to the forgotten banknote storage 11 by the input operation for setting the storage destination of the forgotten banknote, It is assumed that an input for storing banknotes to be forgotten to be taken is also performed in the damaged bill storage box 12.

  And the control part 13 memorize | stores the input content in the memory | storage part 14, and it operate | moves so that a banknote which it forgets to take may be accommodated in the non-payment ticket storage 12 in subsequent processes.

  About the effect | action of the structure of a present Example, the subsequent operation | movement when the banknote picked up from storage 8a-8d by payment | withdrawal transaction processing is integrated | stacked on the banknote acceptance part 2, and a customer forgot to take the banknote is demonstrated.

  FIGS. 5A and 5B are explanatory views showing an operation until a banknote forgotten by a customer in Example 4 is stored. FIG. 5A shows a banknote in a banknote receiving part, and FIG. 5B shows a banknote in a temporary holding part. A state, (c) shows a conveyance route of banknotes from the temporary holding unit, and (d) shows a state in which the banknotes are stored from the temporary holding unit into the damaged bill storage.

  As shown in FIG. 5A, the control unit 13 moves the bill press 2a of the banknote receiving unit 2 toward the feeding roller 2b, thereby pressing the banknote in the banknote receiving unit 2 against the feeding roller 2b, and the feeding roller 2b. , The banknotes are fed out one by one to the transport path 3 and the banknotes are transported to the temporary storage unit 7 as shown in FIG.

  The control part 13 compares the capacity | capacitance of the banknote number which can be accommodated from the present state in the banknote storage 11 and the banknote storage 12 to forget from the counter etc. which the memory | storage part 14 has memorize | stored, and it is capacity from the comparison result. The bills in the temporary storage unit 7 are sequentially conveyed toward the larger side.

  Here, as shown in FIG. 5 (c), when the banknote storage 12 can store more banknotes than the banknote storage 11 forgotten, the control unit 13 stores the banknotes. The banknotes are judged to be transported to the storage box 12, and the banknotes in the temporary holding unit 7 are transported to and stored in the non-payment storage box 12, as shown in FIG. To do.

  As described above, in this embodiment, in addition to the forgotten banknote storage, by storing the banknote forgotten by the customer in the lost banknote storage, the banknote storage is filled up and the clerk becomes full. However, since the banknote collection operation is performed from the inside of the banknote storage that is forgotten to be removed, it is possible to reduce the temporary stoppage of the automatic transaction apparatus and to improve the business efficiency.

  Although the structure of the automatic transaction apparatus 1 of a present Example is the same as that of the said Example 1, the point which changed the kind of banknote accommodated in the storage 8d and the banknote storage 12 differs.

  Here, the clerk turns the audit key of the display operation unit 15 in advance to determine the banknotes to be stored in the non-payment bill storage 12 in a state in which the clerk is switched to the operation mode for executing the process exclusively for the clerk of the financial institution. It is assumed that an operation is performed and an input operation for determining a bill to be stored in the storage 8d is performed.

  The control unit 13 stores the input content in the storage unit 14, thereby operating the storage 8 d and the damaged bill storage 12 according to the content stored in the storage unit 14 in the subsequent processing.

  In the present embodiment, the banknote storage 12 is used for the same purpose as the reject banknote storage 10, that is, among banknotes withdrawn from the storage 8a, 8b, 8c, 8d, the banknote discrimination unit 5 rejects the banknote. It is used to store banknotes identified as (for example, multi-feed banknotes).

  Further, the storage 8d is the same denomination banknote storage as in the first embodiment, but in addition to this, the banknote inserted by the customer in the deposit transaction processing, and a failure occurs during the withdrawal transaction processing. It operates as a storage destination when storing banknotes accumulated in the banknote receiving unit 2 in the initial operation after restoration.

  In the deposit transaction processing in the configuration of the present embodiment, the control unit 13 discriminates the banknotes that the customer has inserted into the banknote receiving unit 2 by the banknote discrimination unit 5 and stores the banknotes in which the correct bills are accumulated in the temporary storage unit 7. The banknotes in the temporary holding section 7 are conveyed to the banknote discrimination section 5 to discriminate the banknotes, and the denominations (thousand yen, 10,000 yen, etc.) of the banknote denominations can be used in the withdrawal transaction processing from the discrimination results. If it is a banknote, it is determined whether or not the storages 8a to 8c that are the storage destinations of the banknotes are full. If they are not full, the banknotes are stored in the corresponding storages 8a to 8c. Is stored in the storage 8d.

  Further, in the withdrawal transaction process, the control unit 13 accumulates the banknotes that are identified from the rejected banknotes in the banknote discrimination unit 5 among the banknotes fed from the storages 8a to 8c, and pays out the banknotes to the customer. When the banknotes in the temporary storage unit 7 are stored later, the banknotes are stored in either the banknote storage 11 or the non-payment storage 12.

  Here, when the control unit 13 determines which of the banknote storage 11 and the banknote storage 12 to forget to store, the number of banknotes in the banknote storage 11 and the banknotes in the banknote storage 11 by the counter of the storage unit 14 are determined. You may make it determine by comparing with the number of banknotes in the storage 12, and the empty capacity of the number of banknotes which can be stored in the banknote storage 11 which is forgotten to take, and the empty of the number of banknotes which can be stored in the lossy bill storage 12 It may be determined by comparing the capacity.

  Here, FIG. 6 is explanatory drawing which shows the accommodation operation | movement of the banknote after the failure recovery by conveyance jam by the withdrawal transaction processing of Example 5, (a) is a mode that the banknote was conveyed to the banknote acceptance part after conveyance jam generation | occurrence | production. (B) has shown the mode that the banknote was conveyed to the temporary storage part, (c) has shown the mode that the banknote was conveyed to the storage 8d.

  The control unit 13 that performs an operation for recovering the failure after the banknote that causes the transport jam is removed by the attendant's hand due to the occurrence of the transport jam in the withdrawal transaction processing is stored in the storage 8a for the withdrawal transaction processing. All the banknotes fed from ˜8c are conveyed to the banknote receiving unit 2 and accumulated in the banknote receiving unit 2 as shown in FIG.

  And the control part 13 pays out the banknote in the banknote acceptance part 2, and conveys it to the banknote discrimination part 5, discriminate | determines a banknote in the banknote discrimination part 5, and after temporary discrimination as shown in FIG.6 (b) 7 To be collected.
