By the way, in such a conventional money deposit / withdrawal apparatus, when paying out change in the normal operation mode, the money entered into the deposit port is denominated and counted by the money counting identification means, and the total amount is the product This is notified to a host machine (for example, POS register) that executes sales data processing. Then, the host machine calculates the change amount by subtracting the purchase amount of the product etc. from the total amount of input money, and outputs the change amount to the control unit of the money deposit / withdrawal device. Then, the money depositing / withdrawing apparatus starts a dispensing operation for dispensing money as change money based on the output of the change amount.
Here, when the money depositing / withdrawing device, for example, withdraws the bills to the withdrawal port, after the change amount is output from the higher-level machine to the control unit of the money depositing / withdrawing machine, first, the banknote storage unit first makes the withdrawal port. After the driving unit of the conveying unit that conveys the banknote is driven and the driving unit reaches a certain driving state (for example, the state in which the conveying speed of the conveying belt reaches the steady state), the feeding unit of the banknote storing unit is driven. Then, the banknotes in the banknote storage unit are fed out one by one, and a predetermined number of banknotes are conveyed to the withdrawal port. Therefore, it takes some time for the bill to be conveyed to the withdrawal port after the money as the purchase price of the product is inserted into the insertion port of the money depositing and dispensing device. For this reason, when the cashier counter is congested, there is a problem that the waiting time for clearing the customer becomes long.

In the money processing apparatus for withdrawing change from the bank, when stopping the deposit operation based on the deposit end instruction, any one of change present, change no, return is set as the deposit end method, and the deposit end method When the change is set, the change dispensing operation is started in advance.

Also, based on the deposit permission from the host machine that executes the sales merchandise data processing, the deposited money is discriminated and counted, and stored in the storage provided for each denomination or the storage of the mixed denomination, In the money processing apparatus that stops the deposit operation based on the deposit end instruction from the higher-level machine, determines the denomination and the number of sheets based on the withdrawal instruction from the higher-level machine, and withdraws change from the storage, When the deposit operation is stopped based on the deposit end instruction, the change dispensing operation is started in advance only when there is no thousand yen bill deposited at the time of deposit.

  According to these, when the deposit operation is stopped based on the deposit end instruction from the higher-order machine, the change dispensing operation is started, so the change dispensing operation is started based on the withdrawal instruction. Compared to a conventional machine, it is possible to shorten the time from deposit of a deposit as a purchase price or the like to the insertion slot until the fishing money is dispensed to the withdrawal slot.

Also, based on the deposit permission from the host machine that executes the sales merchandise data processing, the deposited money is discriminated for each denomination and counted, and the storage provided for each denomination or the storage of the mixed denomination housed in the refrigerator, to stop the payment operation based on the deposit end instruction from the host machine, dispensing the storage case or we change to determine the denomination and number based on the withdrawal instruction from the host machine In the money processing apparatus, when the deposited money is discriminated and counted, and the storage location of the money is determined, the money receipt data is notified to the higher-order machine, and the higher-order machine sends the received money to the receipt data. Based on this, the payment end instruction is performed.

According to this, when the storage location of the deposited money is determined, the deposit data of the money is notified to the host machine, and based on this, the host machine issues the deposit end instruction. notified payment data of the money is from money is stored in the storage case or mixed denominations storages provided for each denomination to the upper machine is, it performs the deposit end instruction based on this Compared with the conventional machine, it is possible to shorten the time from depositing a deposit as a purchase price to the input slot until the fishing money is withdrawn from the output slot.

  As described above, according to the present invention, it is possible to shorten the time from when a deposit as a purchase price or the like is deposited into the insertion slot until when the change money is dispensed into the withdrawal slot as compared with the conventional machine. Therefore, it is possible to provide a money processing apparatus that can reduce the waiting time of the customer at the cashier counter that settles the purchase price and the like and can improve the convenience of the customer.

FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing the contents of the deposit / withdrawal process of the banknote storage unit 20 performed by the deposit / withdrawal control unit 55 of the control means 50 shown in FIG. The banknote depositing / withdrawing operation in the money handling machine will be described with reference to this flowchart.
In the deposit / withdrawal processing operation shown in FIG. 5, the deposit / withdrawal control unit 55 of the control means 50 first monitors the deposit permission instruction from the POS register device 90 through the communication control unit 51 (step S101). When depositing is permitted from the POS register device 90 (step S101: YES), the conveyance path motor 29b of the banknote storage unit 20 is driven toward the depositing / storing side, and then the take-in motor 29a is driven (step S102). ). And by the drive of the taking-in motor 29a, the banknote thrown into the banknote insertion slot 21 is taken in into the banknote conveyance path 23 one by one, and is identified by the banknote discrimination sensor 24 (step S103: YES). When a banknote is identified by the banknote identification sensor 24, the banknote storage 25 in which it is stored is determined by the deposit conveyance destination determination unit 59, and depending on the determination result, each banknote is a thousand yen banknote storage 25b, or It is stored in the mixed banknote storage 25c. Then, the deposited banknote is counted up, and the deposited amount is notified to the POS register device 90 through the communication control unit 51 (step S104). This operation is repeated until all the bills inserted into the bill insertion slot 21 are taken into the bill conveyance path 23 and are not detected by the insertion detection sensor 26 (step S105: YES). And if the banknote of the banknote insertion slot 21 is no longer detected by the insertion detection sensor 26 (step S105: NO), the take-in motor 29a is stopped, and further the conveyance path motor 29b is stopped (step S106). Next, the payment end instruction from the POS register device 90 is monitored (step S107). If there is a deposit end instruction (step S107: YES), a deposit end method is set based on the purchase amount information and the deposit amount information of the POS register device 90 (step S108).

 Here, when the withdrawal of the fishing tag is predicted, the method of ending the deposit is set to “with fishing (with fishing)” (step S108: with fishing), and then the transport path motor 29b is set to the withdrawal / return side. The banknotes carried out from the banknote storages 25b and 25c are transported toward the banknote dispensing port 22, and the withdrawal conveyance setting (flag) of the banknote conveyance path 23 is recorded as “in operation”. Then, a withdrawal instruction waiting time (for example, 3 seconds) is set (step S109). Then, the withdrawal instruction from the POS register device 90 is monitored (step S110). If there is a withdrawal instruction from the POS register device 90 (step S110: YES), it is determined whether the withdrawal conveyance setting of the banknote conveyance path 23 is “in operation” (step S111). When the conveyance setting is recorded as “in operation” (step S111: YES), the feeding motor 28b is driven (step S113), the thousand yen banknote is fed out from the thousand yen banknote storage 25b, and it is used as a fishing tag. As shown in FIG. In this case, the bill discrimination sensor 24 or the like counts out the number of thousand yen bills, and monitors whether the number of thousand yen bills instructed to be dispensed has been delivered (step S114). When the number of thousand yen bills instructed to be dispensed is dispensed (step S114: YES), the dispensing motor 28b is stopped, the conveyance path motor 29b is subsequently stopped, and the dispensing conveyance setting is “stopped”. Is recorded (step S115), and the deposit / withdrawal process is completed. In addition, when there is a withdrawal instruction from the POS register device 90 (step S110: YES), when the withdrawal conveyance setting of the banknote conveyance path 23 is not in the “in operation” state (step S111: NO), the withdrawal is performed. After the money instruction waiting time has elapsed (see step S117: YES described later), the conveyance path motor 29b is stopped, the conveyance of the banknote conveyance path 23 is stopped, and the withdrawal conveyance setting is recorded as “stopped”. Because of the state (see step S118), the conveyance path motor 29b is driven again toward the withdrawal / return side, and the withdrawal conveyance setting of the banknote conveyance path 23 is recorded as “in operation” (step S112). Do.

Further, in the case where the withdrawal instruction from the POS register is monitored (step S110), when there is no withdrawal instruction from the POS register device 90, the withdrawal conveyance setting of the banknote conveyance path 23 is recorded as “in operation”. (Step S116), and if the withdrawal conveyance setting is set to “in operation” (Step S116: YES), it is judged whether the withdrawal instruction waiting time has elapsed (Step S117), If the money instruction waiting time has elapsed (step S117: YES), the transport path motor 29b is stopped, the withdrawal transport setting of the banknote transport path 23 is recorded as “stopped” (step S118), and POS is again performed. Monitor withdrawal instructions from the register. In this case, also when the withdrawal conveyance setting of the banknote conveyance path 23 is not “operating” (step S116: NO), and when the withdrawal instruction waiting time has not elapsed (step S117: NO). Similarly, the withdrawal instruction from the POS register device 90 is monitored again.
Further, when there is an instruction to end payment (step S107: YES), when the deposited banknote is returned (when payment is canceled, etc.), the payment end method is set to “return” (step S108: return). Then, the conveyance path motor 29b is driven toward the withdrawal / return side, the withdrawal conveyance setting of the banknote conveyance path 23 is recorded as “in operation”, and the feeding motors 28b and 28c are further driven (step S119). The banknotes deposited from the banknote storages 25b and 25c are fed out and returned and conveyed toward the banknote dispensing port 22. In this case, the number of returned banknotes is counted by the banknote discrimination sensor 24 or the like, and it is monitored whether all the deposited banknotes have been returned (step S120). Then, when all the deposited banknotes are returned (step S120: YES), the feeding motors 28b and 28c are stopped, the transport path motor 29b is subsequently stopped, and the withdrawal transport setting is recorded as “stopped”. In step S121, the deposit / withdrawal process is completed.
In addition, when there is an instruction to end the deposit (step S107: YES), when the deposit process is terminated without performing other operations such as withdrawal of the bill, the deposit termination method is set to “no fishing (no change)”. "(Step S108: no fishing), the deposit process is terminated as it is.

By the way, when the depositing end method is set to “with fishing” (step S108: with fishing), “when there is no deposit of a thousand yen bill” may be set as a condition. That is, since it is rare to deposit a thousand yen banknote and withdraw a thousand yen banknote as a fishing tag, when the deposit end method is set to “with fishing” (step S108: with fishing), the withdrawal is performed. It is possible to reduce the frequency of occurrence of a case where there is no instruction (step S110: NO), and to reduce unnecessary operations of the apparatus.
Further, in the present embodiment, when depositing is permitted from the POS register device 90 (step S101: YES), the bill inserted into the bill insertion slot 21 is taken into the bill transport path 23 and identified (step S103: YES), when the banknote is stored in the banknote storage 25b, 25c, the deposit amount is notified to the POS register device 90 through the communication control unit 51 (step S104). The timing of notifying 90 may be a time when a deposited banknote is identified and its storage destination is determined by the deposit conveyance destination determination unit 59. By doing so, the timing for notifying the POS register device 90 of the deposit amount can be advanced, and the payment end instruction of the POS register device 90 can thereby be performed earlier, so that the deposit processing time can be shortened. . Note that the timing for notifying the POS register device 90 of the deposit amount is performed after the storage location of the deposited banknote is determined. Therefore, if the banknote storage 25b, 25c is not stored because the banknote storage 25b, 25c is full, the deposited amount is counted. The payment amount can be notified with high accuracy without being uploaded.

  As described above, the money processing apparatus according to the present invention discriminates and counts the deposited money based on the deposit permission instruction from the POS register apparatus 90, and stores the bin 25b or the mixed money provided for each denomination. It is stored in the seed storage 25c, the deposit operation is stopped based on the deposit end instruction from the POS register device 90, the denomination and the number of coins are determined based on the withdrawal instruction from the POS register device 90, and the store 25b. , 25c, when the depositing operation is stopped based on the deposit end instruction, the driving of the transport path motor 29b, which is a change dispensing operation, is started in advance.

  In addition, the money processing apparatus of the present invention sets any one of change present, change nothing, or return as the payment end method when there is the deposit end instruction from the POS register device 90, and as the payment end method, When the change is set, the driving of the conveyance path motor 29b, which is a change dispensing operation, is started in advance.

  Moreover, the money processing apparatus of this invention can start the drive of the conveyance path motor 29b etc. which are change | payout operations of a change beforehand, etc. only when there is no deposit of a 1000 yen bill at the time of the said payment.

According to these, when the depositing operation is stopped based on the deposit end instruction from the POS register device 90, the driving of the conveyance path motor 29b, which is a change dispensing operation, is started. Compared to the conventional machine where the change dispensing operation is started based on this, it shortens the time from when the deposit as a purchase price etc. is deposited into the insertion slot until the change is dispensed to the withdrawal slot. be able to.
Further, the money processing apparatus according to the present invention discriminates and counts the deposited money, and notifies the POS register device 90 of the money deposit data when the storage location of the money is determined. Reference numeral 90 designates the deposit end instruction based on the deposit data.
According to this, when the storage location of the deposited money is determined, the money deposit data is notified to the POS register device 90, and based on this, the POS register device 90 issues the deposit end instruction. Compared to the conventional machine that receives the money deposit data from the POS register device after the deposited money is stored in the storage provided for each denomination, and issues a payment termination instruction based on this. It is possible to shorten the time from when the deposit as a purchase price or the like is deposited into the insertion slot until the fishing money is dispensed into the withdrawal slot.
Accordingly, it is possible to provide a money processing apparatus that can reduce the waiting time of the customer at a cashier counter that settles the shopping price and the like and can improve the convenience of the customer.
Needless to say, the present invention is not limited to the apparatus shown in this embodiment mode, and application changes can be made within the scope of the spirit of the present invention. For example, the configuration and shape of the coin storage unit 10 and the bill storage unit 20 constituting the money processing apparatus, the display mode and configuration of the display unit 30 or the input unit 40 are limited to those shown in this embodiment. It is not something.
