Description

  The present invention relates to a wrapping coin transaction apparatus that performs cash transactions using wrapping coins in which coins are wrapped in a cylindrical shape.

  This type of wrapping coin transaction apparatus is installed in, for example, a lobby or a cash corner of a financial institution or the like, and is frequently used as a currency transaction apparatus (exchange machine) that performs currency exchange of banknotes. Various methods have been proposed in order to improve the convenience of users who wish to exchange money (for example, Patent Document 1).

Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2008-192098 JP-A-5-143822

  In these patent documents, a plurality of money storage trays and banknote cassettes are prepared for each denomination, and then the money storage trays and banknote cassettes are distinguished for each denomination to manage the balance during operation of the apparatus. With this balance management, money storage trays and banknote cassettes for each denomination requiring cash replenishment are detected while the apparatus is operating, and the detected money storage trays and banknote cassettes are replenished with cash while the apparatus is operating. By using them alternately, the continuity of transaction equipment is improved and the convenience of users is improved.

  By the way, since the transaction status of banknotes and wrapping coins for each denomination is diverse, the money storage tray to be replenished from among the multi-layered money storage trays shifts every time cash is replenished by maintenance personnel, Along with this, the remaining money storage trays that were not to be replenished are also transferred each time the cash is replenished. Then, during actual cash replenishment, cash transactions limited to banknotes stored in the remaining banknote cassettes or the like are continued. However, in the method proposed in the above-mentioned patent gazette, it cannot be said that the situation in which the state of the remaining money storage tray shifts and changes every time the cash is replenished, and the remaining amount of money until the cash is replenished. There is a concern that it will hinder the operation of cash transactions in money storage trays.

  The present invention has been made to solve at least a part of the above-described conventional problems, and an object thereof is to further improve the continuity of operation of the wrapping coin transaction apparatus.

  SUMMARY An advantage of some aspects of the invention is to solve at least a part of the problems described above, and the invention can be implemented as the following application examples.

[Application 1: Packaging coin transaction equipment]
A wrapping coin transaction apparatus that performs cash transactions using wrapping coins that wrap coins,
The wrapping coins are stored for the operation of cash transactions, and the wrapping coins are replenished with a plurality of wrapping coin storage units that are excluded from the operation of the cash transactions for each denomination,
A selection receiving unit that receives selection of a replenishment target packaging coin storage unit that is a target of replenishment of packaging coins from among the plurality of packaging coin storage units;
The packaging coin storage unit excluding the selected replenishment target packaging coin storage unit is set as an operation target packaging coin storage unit, and the balance of the packaging coins stored in the operation target packaging coin storage unit is calculated for each denomination. A balance calculation unit;
An operation regulation execution unit that restricts and operates the cash transaction using the operation target packaging coin storage unit by imposing a regulation based on the balance for each denomination calculated for each denomination. To do.

  In the wrapping coin transaction apparatus having the above-described configuration, a plurality of wrapping coin storage units for storing the wrapping coins for the operation of cash transactions are provided for each denomination, and when replenishing the wrapping coins to the plurality of wrapping coin storage units Accepts the selection of the replenishment target packaging coin storage unit to be replenished, and excludes the replenishment target packaging coin storage unit from the operation of cash transactions. On the other hand, the wrapping coin storage unit, excluding the replenishment wrapping coin storage unit, becomes the operation wrapping coin storage unit at the time of replenishment of wrapping coins. Is calculated. For cash transactions using the operation-use wrapping coin storage department, regulations based on the calculated balance of each denomination (hereinafter referred to as the balance of the stored wrapping coin denomination) are imposed for each denomination, Restrict cash transactions by the packaging coin storage department. For this reason, according to the wrapping coin transaction apparatus having the above-described configuration, it is possible to operate a cash transaction that satisfies the regulations based on the denomination balance of the wrapping coins stored in the wrapping coin storage unit to be operated. Continuity of cash transactions can be improved. In addition, detailed operation regulations can be made in accordance with the actual situation of the balance of the denomination of stored wrapping coins, and the continuity of operation can be increased accordingly. In this case, although it is subject to regulations based on the balance of stored wrapping coins by denomination, cash transactions that meet regulations in line with the actual balance of detained wrapping coins will continue to this Since it can be provided, the convenience of the user can be maintained.

  The above wrapping coin transaction apparatus can be configured as follows. For example, when imposing a regulation based on the balance of the detained wrapping coin type, the necessity of the regulation is judged based on the denomination of the detained packaged coin, and if regulation is necessary, It is also possible to impose restrictions on In this way, it is possible to operate cash transactions that meet the regulations based on the balance of denominations of wrapping coins stored in the target wrapping coin storage department, and to operate cash transactions that are not regulated. Continuity of cash transactions can be further improved.

  Further, upon accepting the selection of the replenishment target packaging coin storage unit, a plurality of selection modes with different selection units for selecting a plurality of the replenishment target packaging coin storage units are presented, and one of the presented plurality of the selection modes is presented. The selection of the selection mode can be accepted. In this way, the maintenance staff who performs the replenishment of packing coins presents the options for selecting a plurality of replenishment target packaging coin storage units in a plurality of selection modes in advance. It is possible to reduce the work load when selecting the storage unit and to simplify the work.

  In addition, at the time of the restriction operation based on the denomination balance of stored wrapping coins, at least the transaction upper limit restriction for each denomination of the wrapping coin and the transaction degeneration restriction so as not to be subject to cash transactions in one cash transaction One regulation can be imposed. If it carries out like this, the continuity of the cash transaction at the time of replenishment of a wrapping coin can be improved by the regulation according to the actual condition of the denomination balance of the stored wrapping coin. For example, if the balance of a denomination with stored wrapping coins is small, the transaction upper limit can be regulated only for the wrapping coin of that denomination. Alternatively, when replenishing wrapping coins for all wrapping coin storage units that store wrapping coins of a certain denomination, the transaction can be reduced so that the denominated wrapping coins are not subject to cash transactions. As a result of detailed regulations based on such circumstances, it is possible to further improve the continuity of operations, and to provide users with operations that match the actual circumstances.

  In addition, in the limited operation based on the balance of the denomination of stored wrapping coins, the transaction upper limit restriction for each denomination of the wrapping coins in one cash transaction, and the transaction degeneration restriction not to be subject to cash transactions And at least one regulation without trading regulation can be imposed for each denomination. Even in this way, as described above, the regulations based on the balance of the denomination of stored wrapping coins can increase the continuity of cash transactions when replenishing wrapping coins, and cash transactions without imposing transaction restrictions Can be continued.

  Further, after providing a notifying unit, the notifying unit can notify the contents of the restriction when imposing a restriction based on the denomination balance of the stored wrapping coin. By doing so, since the details of the operation regulations, for example, the details of the detailed operation regulations in accordance with the actual situation of the balance of the denomination of the stored wrapping coins described above can be notified, to the user by telling the operation regulations in advance, Whether or not the transaction desired by the user can be continued can be easily recognized, and convenience can be improved. On the other hand, if the maintenance personnel who replenish the packaging coins are notified, the maintenance personnel who have received the notification can recognize the contents of the operation regulation accompanying the replenishment of the packaging coins. For this reason, for example, when maintenance personnel select a wrapping coin storage unit that requires cash replenishment, it is possible to store wrapping coins to be replenished according to the situation by recognizing in advance the contents of operational regulations accompanying replenishment of wrapping coins. It is desirable to ensure the continuation of subsequent transaction operations. In this case, if the content of the regulation is notified in association with the selection of the replenishment target packaging coin storage unit received by the selection reception unit, the maintenance personnel who have received this notification can replenish the replenishment target packaging coins according to the situation. The storage unit can be selected more accurately, and the workload and simplification of the workload at that time are also increased.

  Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a front view of an automatic changer 1 as an embodiment of the present invention, and FIG. 2 is a rear side external view showing the back of the automatic changer 1 with its door opened.

  As shown in FIG. 1, the automatic currency exchange device 1 includes a touch panel 2, a bill deposit / withdrawal port 3, a coin outlet 4, a wrapping coin outlet 5, a card insertion port 6, a statement slip outlet 7, A transaction status display unit 8 is provided. The touch panel 2 serves as both a display unit and an operation unit, displays guidance to the user, and accepts operations from the user. While viewing the display on the touch panel 2, the user designates various designations relating to exchange, for example, a desired total exchange amount, a desired denomination, and the like. In response to such a user operation, the touch panel 2 transmits an exchange start message and various instructions described above to the main control unit 17 described later.

  The banknote deposit / withdrawal port 3, the coin outlet 4, and the packaged coin outlet 5 receive a user operation of the touch panel 2 and perform predetermined functions as follows. The banknote deposit / withdrawal port 3 is involved in the insertion of a user's banknote (banknote acceptance) through the opening and closing of the shutter, and the banknote discharge to the user. Since the automatic currency exchange apparatus 1 of the present embodiment assumes that high-value banknotes are exchanged for low-value banknotes and coins, it is not necessary to receive coins from the user. Therefore, both the coin outlet 4 and the wrapping coin outlet 5 only need to be involved in the coin release to the user, and after opening and closing the shutter, the coin outlet 4 releases the exchanged coins to the user, The take-out port 5 discharges the exchanged wrapping coins to the user. Here, a wrapping coin is a coin that is piled up in a column by stacking a certain number of coins, and is also called a “bar”. The card insertion slot 6 receives a card (for example, an exchange card or a customer card) from the user, and the statement slip outlet 7 releases the transaction statement to the user. The transaction state display unit 8 displays whether the state of the automatic currency exchange device 1 is in transaction operation or is in a transaction suspension state. Note that the guidance display on the touch panel 2 and the opening and closing of the shutters of the banknote deposit / withdrawal port 3 and the like are controlled by a main control unit 17 described later.

  As shown in FIG. 2, the automatic currency exchange apparatus 1 includes a rear door 18 that can be opened and closed on the back side thereof, and a banknote processing unit 11, a wrapping coin processing unit 12, and a loose coin processing in the door and the apparatus housing. A section 13 and a staff panel section 14 are provided. The banknote processing unit 11 performs banknote taking-in, discrimination, conveyance, feeding, and the like. The wrapping coin processing unit 12 performs identification, conveyance, discharge, etc. of the wrapping coins. FIG. 3 is an explanatory view schematically showing the wrapping coin processing unit 12 in a perspective view. As illustrated, the wrapping coin processing unit 12 includes a feeder unit 21 and a wagon unit 22 that are separated from each other and have a connectable structure. The feeder unit 21 is located below the wrapping coin outlet 5 (see FIG. 1) in the automatic money changer 1 and is used for the wrapping coin transportation / delivery among the wrapping coin discrimination, transportation, discharge, and the like carried by the wrapping coin processing unit 12. Perform the release function. That is, the feeder unit 21 includes an elevating bucket 23, receives wrapping coins one by one from a later-described denomination tray 25 of the wagon 22, and receives the wrapping coins in the wrapping coin collection. It is transported to the packaging coin outlet 24 below the outlet 5 and participates in its discharge.

  The wagon part 22 constitutes one specific example of the transaction module in the present application, and includes a left row packaging coin module 22L and a right row packaging coin module 22R. Each of the left and right wrapping coin modules is provided with multi-level denomination trays 25, and wrapping coins for each denomination are stored in the denomination tray 25 for each exchange. The multi-staged denomination trays 25 are respectively inclined and roll the wrapping coins to the tray front end side, specifically, the bucket 23 side of the feeder unit 21 described above. In addition, the denomination tray 25 is set with the denomination of the wrapping coins to be stored for each level, and in this embodiment, the denomination tray 25 from the top to the second level is a predetermined number of 1 yen packaging. Store and store coins. The 3rd and 4th tier denomination trays 25 are 5 yen wrapping coins, the 5th to 7th tier denomination trays 25 are 10 yen wrapping coins, and the 8th and 9th tier denominations. The tray 25 has 50 yen wrapping coins, the 10th to 12th denomination trays 25 have 100 yen wrapping coins, the 13th and 14th denomination trays 25 have 500 yen wrapping coins, A predetermined number of each denomination is stored and stored. Note that the number of denomination trays 25 for each denomination can be variously changed according to the installation environment of the automatic currency exchange apparatus 1. For example, in the case of a shopping street, it is assumed that the exchange frequency of relatively small amount of change coins is high, and it is assumed that there is a high demand for exchange of high-value coins in residential areas. It is also possible to sort the number of trays and the number of trays for each denomination.

  Although both the wrapping coin modules of the left row wrapping coin module 22L and the right row wrapping coin module 22R constitute the wagon part 22 as a unit, the wrapping coins are temporarily paid out by the withdrawal prohibition solenoid 33 or the like which will be described later. In addition, it can be individually excluded from the operation of the exchange transaction in software or hardware. This operation exclusion will be described later in connection with the withdrawal prohibition solenoid 33 and the like. In addition, both the wrapping coin modules of the left row wrapping coin module 22L and the right row wrapping coin module 22R store the wrapping coins in the respective money-type trays 25 for the operation of the exchange transaction. In, one coin module can be replaced with the other coin module. On the other hand, although the banknote processing unit 11 can be excluded from the operation of the exchange transaction by the software or hardware stop of the banknote dispensing mechanism, the type of cash stored for the exchange transaction is different. In particular, since banknotes are stored, it is not possible to replace the left row packaging coin module 22L or the right row packaging coin module 22R in the operation of currency exchange transactions.

  The bulk coin processing unit 13 shown in FIG. 2 performs coin discrimination, conveyance, discharge, and the like. Although the rose coin processing unit 13 can be excluded from the operation of the exchange transaction due to the software or hardware stoppage of the rose coin payout mechanism, the rose coin is stored for the exchange transaction. Is not possible to replace the left row packaging coin module 22L or the right row packaging coin module 22R. The clerk panel unit 14 also serves as an operation unit and a display unit, and is operated by a bank clerk or the like when, for example, replenishing or collecting banknotes or coins or maintaining the automatic currency exchange apparatus 1. For example, when a bank clerk or the like (hereinafter collectively referred to as “maintenance personnel” as appropriate) opens the back door 18 and operates the clerk panel unit 14, the automatic currency exchange apparatus 1 may not be operated at all. This is a transaction suspension state in which the operation of the exchange transaction is suspended, or an operation continuation state in which the operation of the exchange transaction is partially regulated as will be described later.

  This transaction is canceled because it is assumed that all transactions must be temporarily canceled due to natural disasters, man-made disasters, etc. or due to the occurrence of an abnormality in the entire device. A case of replenishment or a failure of a part of the apparatus (for example, a failure of a part of the bag-coin dispensing mechanism) is assumed. And if it will be in a transaction cancellation state, the display of the transaction status display part 8 and the touch panel 2 (refer FIG. 1) will change from the display in transaction to the display of transaction cancellation. When the cause of the transaction cancellation is removed, the automatic change apparatus 1 enters the transaction state after the completion of the recovery by the maintenance staff at the clerk panel unit 14, and the transaction status display unit 8 and the touch panel 2 display the transaction cancellation display. Change from transaction display to transaction display. On the other hand, in the operation continuation state in which the operation of the currency exchange transaction is partially restricted due to coin replenishment or failure of a part of the apparatus, the display of the transaction state display unit 8 and the touch panel 2 remains the transaction display. The state of partial regulation of the exchange transaction in this case and the details of the display on the touch panel 2 will be described later. In addition, it is good also as a structure which provides a door also in the rear surface of the packaging coin process part 12, and opens the said door, and a maintenance staff performs operations, such as replenishment of a packaging coin.

  Here, the rough flow of the exchange transaction by the automatic currency exchange apparatus 1 will be described. When a card is inserted into the card insertion slot 6 (see FIG. 1) by the user, the touch panel 2 performs guidance display including a transaction start key. A currency exchange transaction is started through a pressing operation of a transaction start key by a user. First, the automatic currency exchange apparatus 1 opens a shutter of the banknote deposit / withdrawal port 3 and waits for a banknote from the user to enter the banknote deposit / withdrawal port 3. When a bill is inserted, the bill processing unit 11 shown in FIG. 2 takes in, distinguishes, and counts the inserted bill. The automatic currency exchange apparatus 1 displays on the touch panel 2 the denomination and quantity that can be exchanged. In addition, the display at the time of the regulatory operation of the above-described exchange transaction will be described later. When the money exchange denomination and quantity are specified by the user operation of the touch panel 2, the automatic money exchange apparatus 1 changes the banknote processing unit 11, the wrapping coin processing part 12, and the loose coin processing part 13 according to the designated money exchange type and quantity. Use it to pay out money, identify and transport money. Next, the automatic exchange device 1 discharges the money exchanged from the banknote deposit / withdrawal port 3, the coin withdrawal port 4, and the wrapping coin withdrawal port 5. Moreover, the automatic money-changing apparatus 1 discharges the transaction slips from the statement slip outlet 7.

  Next, the electrical configuration of the automatic currency exchange device 1 and the detailed device configuration of each unit will be described. FIG. 4 is a block diagram schematically showing an electrical configuration of the automatic currency exchange apparatus 1. As shown in the figure, the automatic exchange device 1 includes a card processing unit 15 and a form processing in addition to the touch panel 2, the banknote processing unit 11, the wrapping coin processing unit 12, the loose coin processing unit 13, and the attendant panel unit 14 described above. Unit 16 and main control unit 17. The card processing unit 15 performs reading processing of the card inserted into the card insertion slot 6 (FIG. 1). The form processing unit 16 issues a statement such as a transaction. The statement slip is released from the statement slip outlet 7 (see FIG. 1). The main control unit 17 is configured as a so-called computer including a CPU that performs logical operations, a ROM that stores data in a nonvolatile manner, a RAM that temporarily stores data, and the like, and includes automatic exchange transaction processing described later. The operation of the entire currency exchange device 1 is controlled. For example, the main control unit 17 displays a guidance display or input acceptance command on the touch panel 2 and the staff panel unit 14, instructs the card processing unit 15 to accept / read / return the card, etc. Instructing the part 11 to deposit / withdraw, instructing the wrapping coin processing unit 12 and the loose coin processing unit 13 to withdraw, etc., and instructing the form processing unit 16 to print the statement form, etc. .

  The wrapping coin processing unit 12 has a mechanical configuration (see FIG. 3) as described above, and electrically includes a control unit 27 in the feeder unit 21. The control unit 27 is also configured as a so-called computer having a CPU that executes logical operations, a ROM that stores data in a nonvolatile manner, a RAM that temporarily stores data, and the like, like the main control unit 17. The And the control part 27 performs the exchange transaction process mentioned later in cooperation with this main control part 17, performing communication of data with the main control part 17, and the apparatus control by the side of the packaging coin process part 12 in the said process Take on. For example, when the control unit 27 receives a wrapping coin withdrawal command from the main control unit 17, a tray to withdraw based on the number of wrapping coins stored in each tray of the denomination tray 25 stored in the RAM Determine the number. Then, the bucket 23 is moved up and down to the corresponding tray to be withdrawn, and the amount to be withdrawn is fed from the money type tray 25 and accumulated in the bucket 23. The bucket 23 is moved to the packaging coin outlet 24. In this case, on the side of the main control unit 17, it is also possible to determine the tray to be dispensed and the number based on the number of wrapping coins stored for each tray of the denomination tray 25.

  The wrapping coin processing unit 12 includes a wagon unit 22, a denomination tray 25, a withdrawal prohibiting pin 31, a withdrawal prohibiting lever 32, a withdrawal prohibiting solenoid 33, a wrapping coin detection sensor 41, and a tray mounting sensor 42. These are connected to the control unit 27 and placed under the control. The wrapping coin detection sensor 41 has the mounted state, specifically the mounted state and the coins, for each type of denomination tray 25 belonging to the left row wrapping coin module 22L and the right row wrapping coin module 22R shown in FIG. Detects the removal state for replenishment and error recovery. The tray mounting sensor 42 detects the number of wrapping coins stored in the denomination trays 25 of each stage included in the left and right wrapping coin modules for each tray. Hereinafter, wrapping coin storage in the denomination tray 25 and its discharge, and detection by the wrapping coin detection sensor 41 and the tray mounting sensor 42 will be described.

  5 is a perspective view showing a schematic configuration of the denomination tray 25, FIG. 6 is an explanatory view showing the relationship between the denomination tray 25 and the bucket 23 in the mounted state, and FIG. 7 is a wrapping coin from the denomination tray 25 to the bucket 23 It is explanatory drawing which shows the mode of discharge | release.

  As shown in FIG. 5, the denomination tray 25 includes a plurality of wrapping coin detection sensors 41 along the longitudinal direction on the side surface, and the number of stored wrapping coins 30 is detected by the sensor. This detected number is transmitted to the control unit 27. As shown in FIG. 6, the denomination type tray 25 faces the bucket 23 toward the bucket 23 in a state where it is attached to each of the left row wrapping coin module 22 </ b> L and the right row wrapping coin module 22 </ b> R (see FIG. 3). . Since the tray mounting sensor 42 is located at the tip of the mounted tray 25 with respect to the mounted denomination tray 25 as described above, it detects the mounting state (mounting or non-mounting) of the denomination tray 25 and controls the result. To the unit 27.

  As shown in FIG. 7 (A), when each of the denomination trays 25 of both the wrapping coin modules of the left row wrapping coin module 22L and the right row wrapping coin module 22R is used for the operation of coin exchange, both wrapping coins Both the module-specific trays 25 of the module are in the mounted state with the tray tip positioned on the bucket 23 side. This mounting state is detected by the tray mounting sensor 42 described above, and becomes the original position toward the release of the wrapping coin 30 from the denomination tray 25 to the bucket 23. The release of the wrapping coins 30 from the denomination tray 25 causes the denomination denomination tray 25 to overhang the bucket 23 by one wrapping coin 30 as shown in FIG. 7B. The wrapping coin 30 can be released by this advance. After the release, the denomination tray 25 returns to the original position described above. The advancement / retraction of the above-described denomination tray 25 from the original position is performed by a tray advance / retreat mechanism (not shown). In this case, the number of wrapping coins desired by the user is discharged from the denomination trays 25 of the left and right wrapping coin modules so that the number of wrapping coins discharged from the left and right trays is substantially equal. On the other hand, when a wrapping coin shortage occurs or a failure occurs in one of the above wrapping coin modules, for example, the denomination tray 25 belonging to the left row wrapping coin module 22L, the coin shortage or failure denomination denomination tray 25 is changed. The coin module to be included, for example, the left side wrapping coin module 22L is excluded from the operation of the currency exchange transaction (FIG. 7C). In this case, the operation exclusion is made in units of coin modules, but each of the denomination trays 25 is retracted for the trays in which coin shortage or failure has occurred. When the failure recovery process is completed or when the coin replenishment operation is completed, the denomination tray 25 is reattached so that coins can be released and returned to the original position shown in FIG. The wrapping coin module, which was supposed to be, will also be used for exchange transactions. The operation of the exchange transaction when the operation is excluded will be described later.

  The release of the wrapping coins 30 from the denomination tray 25 to the bucket 23 is executed under the control of the main control unit 17. FIG. 8 is an explanatory diagram showing the relationship between the bucket 23 that moves up and down and the money type tray 25 at each stage. As shown in the drawing, the feeder unit 21 includes a bucket 23 that can be raised and lowered, and the bucket 23 is individually provided with a semi-rotatable arm unit 23a corresponding to the wagon unit 22 and the left row wrapping coin module 22L. The arm portion 23a and the tray advance / retreat mechanism for advancing / retreating the denomination tray 25 as described with reference to FIG. The books are taken out one by one and taken into the bucket 23. Thereby, discharge | release of the wrapping coin 30 to the bucket 23 is made | formed. In this case, the tray advancement / retraction by the tray advancement / retraction mechanism is performed only for the denomination type tray 25 to be released. As described above, since the coins are discharged from the denomination tray 25 to the bucket 23 by the arm part 23a and the tray advance / retreat mechanism, the arm part 23a and the tray advance / retreat mechanism are driven and controlled. By execution, both the wrapping coin modules of the left row wrapping coin module 22L and the right row wrapping coin module 22R having the denomination tray 25 can be used for the operation of the exchange transaction or excluded from the operation.

  FIG. 9 is an explanatory view showing a tray storage mechanism for mounting and retracting the denomination type tray 25. As shown in the drawing, in each tray storage lane for storing the denomination tray 25, a pull-in prohibition pin 31 that engages with the tray tip of the denomination tray 25 is disposed. Is engaged with a pull-out prohibiting solenoid 33. Normally, the control unit 27 controls the drawer prohibiting solenoid 33 in each tray storage lane to engage the drawer prohibiting pin 31 with the denomination tray 25 so that all the denomination trays 25 can be used for coin exchange in the mounted state. Let As a result, the denomination tray 25 at each stage cannot be retracted and maintains the mounted state. On the other hand, when receiving an instruction for coin replenishment / failure recovery from the maintenance staff, the control unit 27 stores the tray in order to retract the denomination tray 25 in accordance with the instruction (FIG. 7B). The drawer prohibiting solenoid 33 in the tray storage lane is controlled to disengage the drawer prohibiting pin 31 from the denomination tray 25. Thereby, the denomination tray 25 that has been disengaged can be retracted from the mounted state. In this embodiment, the tray withdrawal prohibiting mechanism has been described as having a tray withdrawal locking mechanism by the withdrawal prohibiting solenoid 33 provided in each tray storage lane inside the wagon 22 as described above. The withdrawal of the denomination tray 25 may be prohibited through software control of another controller or may be prohibited in hardware.

  The control unit 27 constantly monitors the tray mounting state through sensing of the tray mounting sensor 42 and updates and stores the detection result of mounting / non-mounting (retracting) for each denomination tray 25 in the RAM. In addition, the control unit 27 constantly monitors the number of wrapping coins stored for each denomination tray 25 through the sensing of the wrapping coin detection sensor 41 described above for each denomination tray 25 in the mounted state. The number of wrapping coins stored is updated and stored in the RAM. The storage result of the RAM is read out in each process of the exchange transaction operation control described below and used for the transaction process.

  FIG. 10 is a flowchart showing the procedure of the exchange transaction process in the automatic currency exchange apparatus 1. This exchange transaction process is executed by the main control unit 17 and is also executed jointly with the control unit 27 in the wrapping coin processing unit 12 as necessary. That is, the main control unit 17 and the control unit 27 construct an operation exclusion unit and an operation restriction execution unit according to the present invention by using a CPU and the like included therein and programs for various processes described below.

  The exchange transaction process shown in FIG. 10 is executed by the user inserting a card into the card insertion slot 6 of FIG. 1 or the exchange start operation by the user on the touch panel 2. Reading is instructed (step S1). Upon receiving this command, the card processing unit 15 reads card information from the card and transmits the read result to the main control unit 17. Based on the received card information, the main control unit 17 determines whether or not a currency exchange transaction is possible. In response to this command, the banknote processing unit 11 opens the shutter of the banknote deposit / withdrawal port 3 and prompts the user to deposit banknotes. When there is a banknote deposit, the banknote processing unit 11 closes the shutter and also reads the amount of the deposited banknote and determines the authenticity.

  Prior to the above-described deposit instruction, the main control unit 17 displays guidance necessary for the exchange transaction on the touch panel 2, for example, a transaction execution button (exchange start button). On the other hand, if the inserted card cannot be traded, the main control unit 17 displays on the touch panel 2 a message to that effect, for example, “You cannot trade with this card. Please come to the counter.” Return to the card insertion standby state. In the case of exchange without a card that does not use a card, an instruction for exchange transaction is received from the user by the guidance display on the touch panel 2 as described above, and the process proceeds to step S2.

  In the subsequent step S3, the main control unit 17 instructs the packaging coin processing unit 12 to prohibit all trays from being drawn out. FIG. 11 is a flowchart showing the procedure of the tray withdrawal prohibition process. As shown in the figure, when the control unit 27 of the wrapping coin processing unit 12 receives the above-described withdrawal prohibition command from the main control unit 17 (step S11), the withdrawal prohibiting solenoids 33 (FIG. 8) of the tray storage lanes of all the stages. Is driven to engage the withdrawal prohibiting pin 31 with the denomination tray 25 (step S12). As a result, all the denomination trays 25 belonging to both the wrapping coin module 22L and the right wrapping coin module 22R are prohibited from being pulled out (cannot be retracted) through the control command and the driving of the hardware device that receives the control command. It is said. In the state where withdrawal is prohibited, the wrapping coins can be discharged from the denomination tray 25. In the wrapping coin replenishment process described later, the prohibition of withdrawal of the denomination tray 25 in step S3 is canceled for each coin module of the left wrapping coin module 22L or the right wrapping coin module 22R.

  In subsequent step S4, the main control unit 17 displays the money amount of the deposited banknote (exchange money) read by the banknote processing unit 11 on the touch panel 2 and instructs the acceptance of the exchange transaction. That is, the main control unit 17 performs the display necessary for receiving the designation of the exchange denomination and the designation of the amount for each denomination from the user together with the above-described display of the exchange principal amount, and the exchange contents desired by the user, that is, Obtain exchange information necessary for exchange transactions. When the main control unit 17 obtains necessary information from the user in this manner, the main control unit 17 issues money to the banknote processing unit 11, the wrapping coin processing unit 12, and the loose coin processing unit 13 in order to operate the exchange transaction desired by the user. In addition to issuing a gold command, a transaction statement print command is sent to the form processing unit 16 (step S5). The details of the exchange transaction (wrapping coin withdrawal process) accompanying the money withdrawal instruction will be described later.

  When all the exchange money is withdrawn normally and the transaction details are also printed normally, the main control unit 17 then transfers the exchange money to the banknote processing unit 11, the wrapping coin processing unit 12, and the loose coin processing unit 13. In addition to instructing the user to wait for withdrawal, the user is instructed to wait for withdrawal of transaction details by the user to the form processing unit 16 and to wait for withdrawal of the card by the user to the card processing unit 15 (step S6). When the user removes all exchange money, transaction details, and cards, the main control unit 17 instructs the banknote processing unit 11 to store and store the exchange principal (step S7). finish. In response to this command, the banknote processing unit 11 transports and stores the exchange money banknote to the banknote box in the processing unit. Of the exchange money banknotes stored in this way, denominations of 1000 yen and 5000 yen can be exchanged for 10,000 yen bills to these small denomination banknotes. Is used for currency exchange transactions.

  Next, the wrapping coin dispensing process that has received the wrapping coin dispensing instruction from the main control unit 17 will be described. FIG. 12 is a flowchart showing the procedure of the wrapping coin dispensing process performed by the control unit 27 of the wrapping coin processing unit 12 that has received the wrapping coin dispensing command from the main control unit 17.

  As shown in the figure, in this wrapping coin dispensing process, when the control unit 27 of the wrapping coin processing unit 12 receives a wrapping coin dispensing command from the main control unit 17 (step S21), it is stored in the RAM in the control unit 27. The number of wrapping coins 30 stored for each denomination tray 25 is read out, and it is determined how many wrapping coins 30 are to be discharged from which denomination tray 25 (step S22). In this case, by reading the number of wrapping coins 30 stored, the amount of cash stored in each denomination tray 25 and the cash stored in the coin module unit of the left wrapping coin module 22L and the right wrapping coin module 22R. It turns out. In the above determination, each denomination tray 25 belonging to the left row packaging coin module 22L is distinguished from each denomination tray 25 belonging to the right row packaging coin module 22R, and the left row packaging coin module 22L and the right row are distinguished. For each coin module of the wrapping coin module 22R, the denomination tray 25 and the number of wrapping coins that are the targets of coin release are determined. Further, the contents of the exchange transaction obtained from the user, for example, the designated denomination and the designated amount of the wrapping coin 30 are also taken into consideration in the above-described tray determination.

  Next, the wrapping coin processing unit 12 sets the withdrawal prohibition solenoid 33 to the withdrawal prohibition with respect to the money type tray 25 scheduled to be withdrawn determined in step S22 (step S23). The solenoid control based on the prohibition of withdrawal is the same as that in step S12 shown in FIG. 11, so that the money type tray 25 scheduled to be withdrawn determined in step S22 is pulled out through the engagement with the withdrawal prohibition pin 31. It is prohibited (cannot be evacuated), and coins can be released. By prohibiting withdrawal of the money-type tray 25 in this way, it is possible to prevent a trouble that the money-type tray 25 that is scheduled to be withdrawn is inadvertently pulled out during the exchange transaction.

  In the following step S24, the control unit 27 drives the bucket 23 to move up and down to the position of the first money-type tray 25 to be withdrawn, and sets the number of wrapping coins 30 determined from the money-type tray 25 in step S22. Are discharged into the bucket 23 and accumulated (see step S25 / FIG. 7A). When the wrapping coin 30 is released, the above-described arm portion 23a (see FIG. 8) attached to the bucket 23 and the tray advance / retreat mechanism described with reference to FIG. 7B are driven and controlled. When the release of the wrapping coin 30 is normally completed from the money type tray 25 to be withdrawn, the control unit 27 prepares for the replenishment of the wrapping coin to the discharged money type tray 25 of the wrapping coin 30, and the control unit 27 performs the wrapping coin released money type. To return the tray 25 to the original position shown in FIG. 7B by the tray advancing / retreating mechanism (see FIG. 7C), the drawer prohibiting solenoid 33 of the tray is set to the drawer permitting side. (Step S26), the engagement between the drawer prohibiting pin 31 and the denomination tray 25 is released. Thereafter, it is determined whether or not the determined number of wrapping coins of the denomination currently being dispensed has been released (step S27). This determination is performed for the following reason.

  As described above, the wrapping coins are stored in multiple stages in a plurality of denomination trays 25 for each denomination (see FIGS. 3 and 8). It is prepared for each module 22L and each right wrapping coin module 22R. In step S22, since the denomination tray 25 and the number of wrapping coins to be coined are determined for each coin module of the left wrapping coin module 22L and the right wrapping coin module 22R, first in step S24. There are cases in which the user-desired number of wrapping coins cannot be satisfied with only the denomination tray 25 that is scheduled to be withdrawn. For example, if the user desires 30 wrapping coins of a denomination, in step S22, 10 wraps of both the left wrapping coin module 22L and the right wrapping coin module 22R from the tiered denomination tray 25, respectively. It is assumed that the number is determined equally so that five coins are taken out from the denomination trays 25 in the other stages of the coin module. Then, only the total of 20 coins can be discharged and accumulated by the coin modules in the left and right rows only by the denomination tray 25 at the stage scheduled for the first withdrawal in step S24 (step S25). Therefore, if it is determined that there is a money type tray 25 to be further withdrawn through the determination in step S27, the process proceeds to step S30 to move the bucket 23 to the next money type tray 25 to be withdrawn, By moving to step S25, the wrapping coins can be discharged and accumulated from the other-stage denomination tray 25.

  If it is determined in step S27 that all wrapping coins of the currently denominated type have been released, the control unit 27 prepares for the replenishment of the denominated wrapping coins, and the control unit 27 completes the denomination. In order to be able to retract the denominated tray 25 for storing the packaged coins, the drawer prohibiting solenoid 33 (see FIG. 8) of the tray storage lane of the tray storage stage is set to the pullable side (step S28), and the drawer is pulled out. The engagement between the prohibition pin 31 and the denomination tray 25 is released. In step S26, since the withdrawal prohibition solenoid 33 (see FIG. 8) is set to the withdrawable side whenever the wrapping coin is released, step S28 can be omitted, but in the sense of fail-safe. Step S28 is executed.

  In a succeeding step S29, it is determined whether or not the determined number (required number) of all wrapping coins of all denominations to be exchanged in the exchange transaction desired by the user has been released. If a negative determination is made here, the process proceeds to step S30 described above and the bucket 23 is moved to the denomination tray 25 for the next denomination to be dispensed, and then the process proceeds to step S25 and the above process is repeated. Thereby, if the discharge | release for the required number about the wrapping coin of all the denominations of exchange object is completed, the control part 27 will drive the bucket 23 up to the wrapping coin extraction opening 24 through the affirmation determination in step S29. Is set (step S31), and this routine is terminated.

  The main control unit 17 also performs banknote exchange dispensing using the banknote processing unit 11 in parallel with the above-described packaging coin dispensing process. That is, when the exchange transaction desired by the user is a mixed exchange of high-value banknotes and low-value banknotes and wrapping coins, the user-desired wrapping coin denomination and the number thereof are in accordance with the above-described wrapping coin dispensing process. Withdrawing money, the banknote processing unit 11 is used for the exchange transaction separately from the wrapping coin processing unit 12 for low-value banknotes. As will be described later, the withdrawal of the wrapping coins by the wrapping coin processing unit 12 is regulated by one operation exclusion of the left row wrapping coin module 22L or the right row wrapping coin module 22R. About the part 13, it will be continuously used for the exchange transaction regardless of the operation exclusion of such a wrapping coin module.

  Next, the state of replenishment of wrapping coins in the automatic currency exchange apparatus 1 will be described. FIG. 13 is a flowchart showing a procedure of wrapping coin replenishment processing performed by the main control unit 17 in cooperation with the control unit 27. As shown in the figure, the main control unit 17 scans for the presence or absence of replenishment notification from the control unit 27 of the packaging coin processing unit 12 (step S41). This replenishment notification is repeatedly created in a predetermined span by the control unit 27 and is transmitted to the main control unit 17 each time it is created. As described above, the control unit 27 always uses the wrapping coin detection sensor 41 for each denomination tray 25, and each denomination tray 25, more specifically, each denomination tray 25 belonging to the left row wrapping coin module 22L, For each denomination tray 25 belonging to the right row wrapping coin module 22R, the number of stored wrapping coins 30 is updated and stored in the RAM. And the control part 27 will transmit a replenishment notification to the main control part 17, when the storage number of the newest wrapping coin 30 about each money-type tray 25 is less than the required replenishment required number for every money type, for example. In addition, this replenishment notification can be generated by learning the actual operation status of the exchange transaction in the automatic currency exchange apparatus 1. For example, in the automatic currency exchange apparatus 1 installed in a shopping street, a restaurant street, etc., the frequency at which the exchange transaction is operated, the denomination type in a single exchange transaction, and the number of wrapping coins for each denomination Or, it depends on the day of the week. Therefore, the main control unit 17 or the control unit 27 learns such an operation state, and the learning result and the number of wrapping coins 30 for each actual denomination (that is, the amount of stored cash) A replenishment notification may be generated. By doing so, it is possible to generate a replenishment notification that matches the operational status of the automatic currency exchange apparatus 1.

  When the main control unit 17 receives the replenishment notification described above, the main control unit 17 sends a signal to that effect to the management device of the automatic exchange device 1, for example, the management computer of the bank where the automatic exchange device 1 is installed, Send to a management computer that can send and receive data. If it carries out like this, the maintenance computer arrangement for the coin replenishment can be arranged on the management computer side. Then, together with the replenishment notification signal, if the number of stored wrapping coins 30 (the amount of stored cash) for the denomination trays 25 belonging to the left and right wrapping coin modules read by the control unit 27 is transmitted to the management computer, In response to this, the management computer can also transmit to the maintenance staff the required number of wrapping coins to be transported for coin replenishment.

  When receiving the above-described replenishment notification (affirmative determination in step S41), the main control unit 17 performs initial display control on the staff panel unit 14 (step S42). The display by the initial display control can prompt a maintenance person who performs coin replenishment to perform a necessary operation. FIG. 14 is an explanatory diagram showing a first display screen of the clerk panel unit 14 by initial display control for maintenance personnel, and FIG. 15 is an explanatory diagram showing a second display screen of the clerk panel unit 14 by initial display control for maintenance personnel. FIG. 16 is an explanatory view showing a third display screen of the clerk panel unit 14 by the initial display control for maintenance personnel.

  In this step S42, first, the first display screen shown in FIG. 14 is displayed. In this case, since there is a time difference between the input timing of the replenishment notification in step S41 and the actual coin replenishment work start timing by the maintenance personnel, the display of the first display screen in FIG. (See FIG. 1). The coin replenishment by the maintenance personnel and the opening of the back door 18 at this time are operations on the so-called backyard side, which is the back side of the automatic currency exchange device 1, so the automatic currency exchange device 1 provides the maintenance personnel with the back door 18. Even if is opened, exchange transactions will be operated as before.

  The maintenance staff looks at the first display screen of FIG. 14 and presses the button displayed as the staff processing. The main controller 17 can instruct the operation of the maintenance personnel more clearly by highlighting the staff processing button 51 such as flash display or coloring display. The main control unit 17 receives the press of the clerk processing button 51, displays the second display screen shown in FIG. 52 is highlighted. When the cash processing button 52 is pressed by maintenance personnel, the main control unit 17 changes the display on the staff panel unit 14 to the third display screen shown in FIG. On this screen, the wrapping coin occasional replenishment button 53 is highlighted. It should be noted that highlighting may not be performed (the same applies hereinafter).

  In the above-described initial display control, when the wrapping coin occasional replenishment button 53 is pressed by the maintenance personnel, the main control unit 17 replenishes the wrapping coins according to the secondary display control of the clerk panel unit 14 and the button operation of the maintenance personnel. The device control command is performed (step S43). After the screen display of the clerk panel unit 14 by the secondary display control of the clerk panel unit 14, the coin replenishment work by the maintenance staff is substantially started, and according to the button operation of the maintenance staff at that time, as shown in FIG. Packaging coin withdrawal processing is regulated as described below. FIG. 17 is an explanatory diagram showing a first display screen of the clerk panel unit 14 by secondary display control for maintenance personnel.

  In step S43, first, the first display screen shown in FIG. 17 is displayed. On the first display screen, the main control unit 17 performs various displays for facilitating the replenishment of wrapping coins as needed, and a lane unit button 54 and a denomination unit button 55 that define the replenishment mode of the replenishment as needed. Then, an end tray button 56, an execution button 57, and a wrapping coin set status list 58 for each denomination tray are displayed. The automatic exchange device 1 of this embodiment includes a replenishment mode in lane units (lane replenishment mode), a replenishment mode in denomination units (denomination unit replenishment mode), and a replenishment mode in end tray units (end tray unit). The wrapping coin replenishment in the three replenishment modes (replenishment mode) is made possible, and the coin replenishment in these modes is presented to the maintenance staff by each button of the lane unit button 54, the denomination unit button 55, and the end tray button 56. The automatic changer 1, more specifically, the main control unit 17 accepts the mode selection (any one of the above buttons) of the maintenance personnel, and in the accepted mode (one of the above three modes). Coin replenishment is performed as described below.

  In the lane replenishment mode, the wrapping coins are replenished in units of either the left row wrapping coin module 22L or the right row wrapping coin module 22R, and in this case, the denomination tray included in the replenishment unit coin module is used. This is a mode in which wrapping coins of the corresponding denomination are replenished for the denomination tray 25 that has room for replenishment of wrapping coins. In this case, during the wrapping coin replenishment operation, as will be described later, all denomination trays 25 included in any of the wrapping coin modules selected as maintenance targets by the maintenance personnel are excluded from transaction operations. Details of this will be described later.

  The denomination unit replenishment mode is a mode for replenishing wrapping coins regardless of the left and right coin modules for the denomination tray 25 that stores wrapping coins of a certain denomination. For example, this is a mode in which a wrapping coin of a corresponding denomination (100 yen) is replenished for a denomination tray 25 in which there is room for replenishment of wrapping coins among denomination trays 25 loaded with wrapping coins of 100 yen. In this case, during the wrapping coin replenishment operation, as will be described later, all denomination trays 25 of denominations selected as maintenance target denominations are excluded from transaction operations. Details of this will be described later.

  In the end tray unit replenishment mode, the number of unwrapped coins remaining in the denomination tray 25 is in an end state, for example, the number of remaining coins is zero or the number of remaining coins is less than the number normally required for one exchange transaction. In this mode, the wrapping coins are replenished regardless of the left and right coin modules for the near-end denomination tray 25. In this case, during the wrapping coin replenishment operation, as described later, all of the above-described end-type denomination trays 25 selected as maintenance target denominations are excluded from transaction operations. Details of this will be described later.

  As described above, the automatic currency exchange apparatus 1 according to the present embodiment enables the replenishment of wrapping coins in the above three replenishment modes. It is initially set to the normal replenishment mode. For this reason, the main control unit 17 highlights the lane unit button 54. Coin replenishment in the denomination unit replenishment mode and the end tray replenishment mode is executed through a button operation of the denomination unit button 55 or the end tray button 56 by maintenance personnel. That is, even if the lane replenishment mode is initially set as the normal replenishment mode and the lane unit button 54 is highlighted, if the maintenance person operates the denomination unit button 55 or the end tray button 56, the operation button According to the coin replenishment (denomination unit replenishment mode or end tray unit replenishment mode). The details will be described after coin replenishment in the lane replenishment mode.

  When displaying the first display screen shown in FIG. 17, the main control unit 17 belongs to each of the above-described left-row wrapping coin module 22 </ b> L and right-row wrapping coin module 22 </ b> R upon receipt of the replenishment notification that triggers the display. With respect to the denomination tray 25, the control unit 27 receives the remaining number of wrapping coins scanned and displays it on the wrapping coin set status list 58. The blank in the wrapping coin set status list 58 indicates that wrapping coins equivalent to the number of storable coins are stored, and the end display indicates that the number of remaining coins is zero as described above, or one exchange It shows that the number of remaining coins, which is less than the number normally required for trading, is in a near-end state.

  The execution button 57 displayed on the first display screen of FIG. 17 is effective when the maintenance staff presses the lane unit button 54 and the denomination unit button 55 or the end tray button 56 described above. Then, when the maintenance person views the first display screen of FIG. 17 and presses the execution button 57 after the lane unit button 54, the maintenance person has selected the lane replenishment mode corresponding to the lane unit button 54. . Therefore, the main control unit 17 accepts this mode selection of the maintenance personnel and performs secondary display control corresponding to coin replenishment in the lane replenishment mode corresponding to the lane unit button 54. FIG. 18 is an explanatory view showing a second display screen of the clerk panel unit 14 by the secondary display control for maintenance personnel.

  On the second display screen, the main control unit 17 selects the execution button 57 and the wrapping coin set status list 58 described above, the selection button (left button 59) of the left row wrapping coin module 22L, and the right row wrapping coin module. A 22R selection button (right button 60) and an operation restriction list 61 are displayed. As the execution button 57 is pressed, the main control unit 17 receives the scan results of the control unit 27 for all the denomination trays 25, and the remaining coins in the wrapping coin set status list 58 on the second display screen of FIG. Update the display of the number and end status. The operation regulation list 61 shows that when the left row packaging coin module 22L out of the left row packaging coin module 22L and the right row packaging coin module 22R is excluded from the operation of the currency exchange transaction, the current right row packaging coin module 22R The regulation content in the case of operating the exchange transaction with the wrapping coins stored in the denomination tray 25 is displayed at the top. On the other hand, when the right wrapping coin module 22R is excluded from the operation of the exchange transaction, the contents of the regulation when the exchange transaction is operated with the wrapping coins stored in the respective denomination trays 25 in the current left wrapping coin module 22L. Is displayed at the bottom.

  Among the regulation details displayed in the operation regulation list 61, the withdrawal amount regulation is 1 yen which is a denomination used for the exchange transaction, specifically, a denomination for each denomination tray 25 belonging to each of the left and right coin modules. By regulating the maximum number of transactions that can be traded at one time for each denomination of 5, 10, 10, 50, 100, and 500 yen, the transaction upper limit for each denomination in a single cash transaction is regulated. Indicates. The main control unit 17 determines whether or not the withdrawal amount regulation (maximum number of transactions for each denomination) is necessary, and the number of currently stored coins for each wrapping coin displayed in the wrapping coin set status list 58 in FIG. ) And if this withdrawal amount regulation (maximum number of transactions for each denomination) is necessary, each denomination will be For example, the number of the normal 30 is set to 5, 10, 20, etc.

  The denomination regulation indicates that the upper limit of the number of transactions that can be traded at one time for a specific denomination among the above denominations is to regulate the trading limit of this particular denomination in a single cash transaction . The main control unit 17 also determines the necessity of this denomination regulation (maximum number of transactions for a specific denomination) as to the number of currently stored coins for each wrapping coin displayed in the wrapping coin set status list 58 in FIG. If this denomination regulation (maximum number of transactions for a specific denomination) is necessary, the specific amount will be determined based on the number of storable coins for each wrapping coin (remaining amount). About seeds, for example, five, ten, twenty, etc. are determined. In this case, the maximum transaction amount can be defined based on the number of stored coins (the amount of remaining money) for each wrapping coin. In carrying out such regulations, in addition to the above-mentioned amount of remaining money, the actual operation status of the exchange transaction in the automatic exchange device 1 (for example, the number of wrapping coins frequently used in one exchange transaction) is set as described above, for example. It is also possible to learn according to the place, time zone, day of week, etc., and to restrict the operation in consideration of the learning result. By so doing, it is possible to impose operational restrictions that are in line with the operational status of the automatic currency exchange device 1.

  The main control unit 17 displays the above-described restriction contents in the operation restriction list 61 shown in FIG. 18 and makes the maintenance person recognize the restriction contents. The operation regulation list 61 is displayed as follows. For example, if the left row wrapping coin module 22L is excluded from operation for replenishment of wrapping coins, the exchange transaction is only the right row wrapping coin module 22R. Therefore, the main control unit 17 determines whether or not the regulation is necessary for the operation only with the right side wrapping coin module 22R and the content thereof, as described above, the number of stored wrapping coin set status lists 58 in FIG. ) And the regulation contents are shown in correspondence with the packaging coin module excluded from operation. That is, in the separation lane “left” column of the operation regulation list 61, it is displayed that it is necessary to impose both the withdrawal amount regulation and the denomination regulation when the left-side wrapping coin module 22L is excluded from operation. In the separation lane “right” column, it is displayed that only the withdrawal amount regulation is necessary when the right-line wrapping coin module 22R is excluded from operation. Further, for example, in the wrapping coin set status list 58 in FIG. 18, the right-line wrapping coin module 22R is operated if the number of denominations (remaining amount of money) is sufficient so that both of the above-mentioned regulations are not required. In the restriction list 61, it is displayed that there is no restriction in the column of the separation lane “left” or that there is no restriction without displaying anything. If one of the left row wrapping coin module 22L and the right row wrapping coin module 22R is excluded from operation, the number of wrapping coins that can be exchanged is greatly limited. Regulations can also be imposed.

  In the automatic currency exchange apparatus 1 of the present embodiment, in order to ensure the continuity of the operation of the exchange transaction at the time of coin replenishment, the lane replenishment mode with the above-mentioned looser regulations is initially set to be the normal replenishment mode. Yes. Therefore, in the regulation shown in FIG. 18, the lower part of the operation restriction list 61 is looser with one kind of restriction. Therefore, the main control unit 17 highlights the lower part display and the display of the right button 60 in the operation restriction list 61. . In this case, it is possible to entrust the selection of the left button 59 and the right button 60 to the maintenance staff by displaying the operation regulation list 61 and the packaging coin set status list 58 without performing such highlighting.

  In FIG. 18, the work of the maintenance personnel before the right button 60 and the execution button 57 are pressed is performed in the backyard as described above, and is not related to the actual operation of the exchange transaction by the user. . On the other hand, pressing of the right button 60 and the execution button 57 by maintenance personnel selects the right row wrapping coin module 22R as a replenishment target of the wrapping coins, and this right row wrapping coin module 22R is operated for exchange transactions for coin replenishment. It means to exclude from. Since the above button operation is performed in the backyard as described above, the selection timing after the button operation (the operation exclusion start timing of the right wrapping coin module 22R) is the operation of the exchange transaction by the user. It can be inside. Therefore, after the execution of step 43 for controlling the screen display of FIG. 18, the main control unit 17 waits for the maintenance personnel to press both the right button 60 and the execution button 57, and the timing of the pressing operation is determined. It is determined whether or not the user is operating a currency exchange transaction (step S44). Hereinafter, for convenience of explanation, a case where the right button 60 and the execution button 57 are continuously pressed by maintenance personnel and the right-line wrapping coin module 22R is set as a replenishment target module (operation excluded coin module) will be described. FIG. 19 is an explanatory diagram showing the relationship between the selection timing of the replenishment target module (operation excluded coin module) and the execution timing of the exchange transaction by the user.

  The selection timing of the replenishment target module (operational exclusion coin module) in which the right button 60 and the execution button 57 in FIG. 18 are pressed is as shown in FIG. 19 during the operation of the exchange transaction by the user, It will be one of the periods not made. Here, if the above selection timing is during the operation of the exchange transaction by the user, an affirmative determination is made in step S44, and the main control unit 17 continues in step S45 until the current exchange transaction is completed. And wait for an operation exclusion order for replenishment of packaging coins. During this standby, since the wrapping coin dispensing process shown in FIG. 12 is being executed, the main control unit 17 increases the effectiveness of the operation exclusion standby while preventing the process from being hindered. The withdrawal prohibition solenoid 33 is set to prohibit withdrawal for all the denomination trays 25 belonging to both the packaging coin modules of the left row packaging coin module 22L and the right row packaging coin module 22R. The solenoid control by prohibiting the withdrawal is the same as that in step S12 shown in FIG. 11, and as a result, all the denomination trays 25 belonging to both packaged coin modules are prohibited from being pulled out through the engagement with the withdrawal prohibiting pin 31. (Cannot be evacuated). In this way, by prohibiting withdrawal of all denomination trays 25, it is possible to prevent troubles such that the denomination tray 25 is inadvertently pulled out and replenishment of direction coins is processed during the exchange transaction. can do. By the way, during the operation of the exchange transaction, the withdrawal is prohibited in step S23 of the wrapping coin withdrawal process shown in FIG. 12, but the target tray in this step is the money type tray 25 scheduled to be withdrawn.

  Further, the main control unit 17 controls the display of the attendant panel unit 14 during the above-described operation exclusion command standby so that the maintenance staff can recognize the standby. FIG. 20 is an explanatory diagram showing a display screen of the staff panel 14 for maintenance personnel when waiting for an operation exclusion command. As shown in the drawing, the main control unit 17 displays the notification column 62 and waits for the replenishment of wrapping coins until the current exchange transaction is completed because the user is currently operating the exchange transaction. So call attention to maintenance personnel. The operation exclusion command standby in step S45 is canceled during the idle period in preparation for the next exchange transaction after the current exchange transaction is completed, and through the cancellation, the operation exclusion command and the device control and operation regulation contents associated therewith are released. Display control is performed (step S46).

  On the other hand, if a negative determination is made in step S44 that the above selection timing by the pressing operation by the maintenance staff of the right button 60 and the execution button 57 in FIG. The process proceeds to S46, and an operation exclusion command described below and device control associated therewith are performed. That is, when the user's exchange transaction is not performed, the operation exclusion command, the device control associated therewith, and the display control of the contents of the operation regulation are promptly performed. FIG. 21 is an explanatory diagram showing a display screen of the staff panel unit 14 corresponding to the operation exclusion command.

  In step S46, the main control unit 17 performs an operation exclusion command, device control associated therewith, and display control of operation restriction contents. Then, in the operation exclusion instruction and the device control associated therewith, the image shown in FIG. 21 is provided to the maintenance staff, and the maintenance staff is required to replenish the right-side wrapping coin module 22R selected in FIG. Recognize that coin replenishment for the type tray 25 can be started, and encourage replenishment. In this case, the main control unit 17 cancels the tray withdrawal prohibition made in step S45 for all denomination trays 25 belonging to the right row coin module 22R together with the image display shown in FIG. 21 or prior to this. The wrapping coin release from the denomination tray 25 belonging to the right wrapping coin module 22R to the bucket 23 is prohibited.

  In order to cancel the tray withdrawal prohibition, the drawer prohibiting solenoid 33 shown in FIG. 9 is driven to the release side, and all the denomination trays 25 belonging to the right row coin module 22R can be retracted as shown in FIG. 7B. And In response to the image display shown in FIG. 21, the maintenance staff receives the denomination tray 25 included in the right-side wrapping coin module 22 </ b> R, which is the object of coin replenishment, and has a room for replenishment of wrapping coins With respect to 25, the corresponding coin type wrapping coins are replenished after being pulled out, and the denomination tray 25 is mounted after replenishment. The maintenance staff can confirm the room for coin replenishment by displaying the packaged coin set status list 58 included in FIG. Since the control unit 27 of the wrapping coin processing unit 12 always scans the number of wrapping coins stored in the denomination tray 25 with the wrapping coin detection sensor 41, After the tray 25 is mounted, the display number of the wrapping coin set status list 58 in FIG. 21 is updated as needed.

  In addition, prohibition of wrapping coins from the denominated tray 25 belonging to the right row wrapping coin module 22R to the bucket 23 is performed by using the arm portion 23a and the tray advancing / retreating mechanism shown in FIG. The device control is performed to prohibit driving. That is, in step S45, the right row wrapping coin module 22R is so-called through the tray withdrawal prohibition release via the drive control of the withdrawal prohibition solenoid 33 and the drive prohibition via the drive control of the arm portion 23a and the tray advance / retreat mechanism. It will be excluded from the operation of money exchange transactions in terms of software. And in the right row wrapping coin module 22R thus excluded from operation, the money type tray 25 to which it belongs is excluded from the wrapping coin discharge target in the wrapping coin dispensing process of FIG. 12, and its operation is regulated. Will be. That is, after the right-line wrapping coin module 22R is excluded from the exchange transaction, only the left-line wrapping coin module 22L that can replace the coin module is continuously used for the exchange transaction. And the content of the operation regulation at the time of the exchange operation by the left wrapping coin module 22L is shown in the operation regulation list 61 of FIG.

  When the right wrapping coin module 22R is excluded from the operation as described above, the main control unit 17 displays the operation restriction content on the touch panel 2 (see FIG. 1) in step S46. That is, as explained in FIG. 18, the main control unit 17 is based on the current number of stored coins (remaining amount of money) for each wrapping coin for the left wrapping coin module 22L displayed in the wrapping coin set status list 58. The regulation content of the operation of the exchange transaction using only the current left-side wrapping coin module 22L is displayed on the touch panel 2. As described above, the content is the content that regulates the maximum number of transactions for each denomination that can be traded at one time, or the content that regulates the maximum number of transactions that can be traded for a certain denomination at once. That is, the contents of restrictions shown in the operation restriction list 61 of FIG. 18 are presented on the touch panel 2 for the user. In this case, certain denominations can be regulated so that withdrawal is not possible, and the maximum transaction amount can be regulated. FIG. 22 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of display for the user when one coin module is excluded from transaction operation. As described above, the display in FIG. 22 is performed during an idle period in preparation for the next currency exchange transaction after the current currency exchange transaction is completed if the coin is being replenished during the exchange transaction by the user. If there is no currency exchange transaction, it will be displayed promptly. It is displayed on the touch panel 2 every time it is idle until coin replenishment is completed. The user who receives the presentation of such regulation contents can perform a currency exchange transaction in a range suitable for the contents.

  While the maintenance staff is replenishing the coins, the image display of FIG. 21 is performed on the staff panel 14 by the above-described step S46. When the maintenance staff completes the operation of coin replenishment, the end button 63 is pressed, and in the case of performing coin replenishment for the left row packaging coin module 22L instead of the right row packaging coin module 22R that has been the subject of replenishment, Then, the replenishment continuation button 64 is pressed. Therefore, the main control unit 17 scans the pressing state of both buttons (step S47), and continues the process according to the scan result.

  The time required for the coin replenishment work by the maintenance personnel started through step S46 differs each time depending on the denomination and total number of wrapping coins to be replenished, or by the above-mentioned replenishment continuation. Therefore, the main control unit 17 determines whether or not the end button 63 and the replenishment continuation button 64 are operated in order to grasp the relationship between the completion timing of the coin replenishment operation and the operation of the exchange transaction by the user (step S47). The process of step S46 is continued until there is a button operation. As a result, the operation exclusion of the right-line wrapping coin module 22R, which has been coin replenishment, is continued, and the operation of the currency exchange transaction in the left-line wrapping coin module 22L is continued within the limits shown in FIG. .

  If it is determined that there is any button operation in step S47, it is determined whether or not the timing of the pressing operation is during the exchange transaction by the user (step S48). FIG. 23 is an explanatory diagram showing the relationship between the completion or replenishment timing of coin replenishment and the execution timing of the exchange transaction by the user.

  The timing of coin replenishment completion or continuous replenishment when either the end button 63 or the replenishment continuation button 64 in FIG. Will not be any period. Here, if the above timing is during the operation of the exchange transaction by the user, an affirmative determination is made in step S48, and the main control unit 17 continues in step S49 until the current exchange transaction is completed. Wait for the return command to the operation of the exchange transaction after refilling the wrapping coins. During this waiting period, the wrapping coin dispensing process shown in FIG. 12 is being executed. Therefore, the main control unit 17 increases the effectiveness of the operation return waiting period without causing any trouble in the process. Then, the withdrawal prohibition solenoid 33 is set to the withdrawal prohibition for all the denomination trays 25 belonging to the coin module (for example, the right row packaging coin module 22R) that has been excluded from operation until then. The solenoid control by this prohibition of withdrawal is the same as step S12 shown in FIG. 11, and all the denomination trays 25 belonging to the coin modules that have been excluded from operation until now are engaged with the withdrawal prohibition pin 31, It is once again prohibited to be pulled out (cannot be retracted). Thereby, as described above, it is possible to prevent inadvertent extraction of the tray and subsequent replenishment of wrapping coins during the operation of the exchange transaction. The operation return command standby in step S49 is canceled during the idle period prepared for the next exchange transaction after the current exchange transaction is completed, and the following operation return command and device control associated therewith are performed after the release. (Step S50).

  On the other hand, if either the end button 63 or the replenishment continuation button 64 of FIG. If so, the process proceeds to step S50, and an operation return command and device control associated therewith described below are performed. That is, when the user's exchange transaction is not performed, the operation return command and the device control associated therewith are promptly performed.

  When the main control unit 17 performs the operation return instruction and the device control associated therewith in step S50, the main control unit 17 performs the following operations on all the denomination trays 25 belonging to the right-side wrapping coin module 22R for which the replenishment of the wrapping coins has been completed. A command to prohibit the withdrawal of the tray is issued again, and the release of the wrapping coins from the denominated tray 25 belonging to the right row wrapping coin module 22R to the bucket 23 is permitted. In order to prohibit the withdrawal of the tray, the withdrawal prohibition solenoid 33 shown in FIG. 9 is driven to the prohibition side, and all the denomination trays 25 belonging to the right row wrapping coin module 22R cannot be retracted as shown in FIG. 7A. .

  In addition, the permission to release the wrapping coins from the denomination type tray 25 belonging to the right row wrapping coin module 22R to the bucket 23 is as follows. The device control is performed to control the drive. In other words, in step S50, the right row wrapping coin module 22R is so-called soft through the tray withdrawal prohibition via the drive control of the withdrawal prohibition solenoid 33 and the drive via the drive control of the arm portion 23a and the tray advancing / retreating mechanism. Return to the operation of currency exchange. Thereafter, the exchange transaction is continued in both the wrapping coin modules of the left row wrapping coin module 22L and the right row wrapping coin module 22R.

  Following step S50, the main control unit 17 determines whether the button pressed by the maintenance personnel is the end button 63 or the replenishment continuation button 64 (step S51). If the maintenance staff presses the replenishment continuation button 64, it is necessary to again exclude operation and control associated with this in order to replenish the coin module that has not been replenished with coins, and in the above case, the left wrapping coin module 22L. If there is, the process proceeds to step S44 and the process is repeated. On the other hand, if the end button 63 is operated, it is determined that the coin replenishment is completed, the process proceeds to step S52, the current coin replenishment history is stored in the RAM, and the wrapping coin replenishment process in the lane replenishment mode is terminated.

  Next, in the first display screen of the staff panel 14 for maintenance personnel shown in FIG. 17, coin replenishment in the denomination unit replenishment mode when the denomination unit button 55 is pressed instead of the lane unit button 54 is performed. The coin replenishment in the end tray unit replenishment mode when the end tray button 56 is pressed will be described in this order. Even in the replenishment mode in denomination units and end tray units, the determination of the coin type tray 25 for coin replenishment, the withdrawal permission for the determined denomination tray 25, etc., are performed in the lane replenishment mode described above. This is the same as the process. Therefore, the wrapping coin processing procedure for the lane replenishment mode, that is, step S43 to step S52 in FIG. 13 will be described below. FIG. 24 is an explanatory diagram showing a guidance screen displayed on the staff panel 14 for maintenance personnel when the denomination unit button 55 and the execution button 57 of FIG. 17 are pressed in this order.

  When the maintenance person presses the denomination unit button 55 and the execution button 57 of FIG. 17 in this order, the maintenance person has selected the denomination unit replenishment mode corresponding to the denomination unit button 55. Therefore, the main control unit 17 accepts this mode selection of the maintenance staff and displays a guidance screen shown in FIG. 24 to perform coin replenishment in the denomination unit replenishment mode corresponding to the denomination unit button 55. The guidance screen includes the above-described wrapping coin set status list 58, a denomination button group 70 including six denomination denomination buttons, precautions for maintenance personnel above and below, and an execution button 57. It is displayed (step S43). In this case, the number of wrapping coins in the wrapping coin set status list 58 is newly calculated and updated when the denomination unit button 55 is pressed. The maintenance staff sees the current storage status for each denomination in the packaged coin set status list 58 to determine which denomination coin included in the denomination button group 70 is to be replenished, for example, a denomination with an end display. In order to replenish wrapping coins of denominations with few remaining coins, the corresponding denomination buttons (10 yen button, 500 yen button, etc.) are pressed. In the present embodiment, among the six denomination buttons of denominations, it is possible to simultaneously press a maximum of three denomination buttons. FIG. 24 shows a state where denomination buttons of 1 yen, 10 yen and 100 yen are selected, and these denomination buttons are highlighted or colored. The following description will be made assuming that these three types of denomination buttons are selected.

  In addition to the selection of denomination buttons by the maintenance personnel, the main control unit 17 simultaneously determines up to three denomination buttons to be replenished, highlights these buttons, and indicates to the maintenance personnel the replenishment targets. Species can be recognized. For example, the actual operation status of the currency exchange transaction in the automatic currency exchange apparatus 1, the frequency at which the currency exchange transaction is performed, the denomination type in a single currency exchange transaction, the number of currency exchange transactions per denomination such as every time zone or every day of the week Etc. are learned by the main control unit 17, and the denomination buttons to be replenished are simultaneously maximized by the learning result and the number of wrapping coins 30 for each actual denomination (ie, the amount of stored cash). Determine up to three. In this way, it becomes possible to select a depletion target denomination in accordance with the operational status of the automatic currency exchange apparatus 1, and it becomes unnecessary to determine a depletion denomination by maintenance personnel. Therefore, it is possible to reduce mistakes in selecting supplementary denominations by maintenance personnel, and to simplify the work. The maintenance personnel can also select a denomination button different from the denomination button determined by the main control unit 17 as described above. In this case, the selection of maintenance personnel (button operation) is given priority. The

  The denomination tray 25 to be replenished with coins in the denomination unit replenishment mode through the operation of the denomination unit button 55 stores denomination packaging coins corresponding to the denomination denomination buttons included in the denomination button group 70. It becomes all the money type trays 25 to be. For this reason, if a denomination having a denomination button group 70, for example, a denomination button of 1 yen, 10 yen, or 100 yen as described above is pressed, in preparation for replenishment of these denomination wrapping coins, 1 It is necessary to carry out a withdrawal reduction operation so that wrapping coins of yen, 10 yen and 100 yen coins are not used for exchange transactions. In order to alert the maintenance personnel to such matters, the main control unit 17 displays a message to that effect in the lower part of the denomination button group 70. The state of execution of the withdrawal withdrawal operation described above will be described later.

  The main control unit 17 determines whether or not the exchange transaction is being performed by the user at the pressing timing of the execution button 57 described above by the maintenance staff (step S44). This is because, as described in the lane replenishment mode, the replenishment of the packed coins in the backyard and the operation of the actual money exchange transaction by the user are matched. As described with reference to FIG. 19, if the pressing timing of the execution button 57 (start timing of the denomination unit replenishment mode) is during the operation of the exchange transaction by the user, an affirmative determination is made in step S44, and the main control unit 17 In the subsequent step S45, an operation exclusion command for replenishing the wrapping coins is put on standby until the exchange transaction currently being made ends. During this waiting period, the wrapping coin dispensing process shown in FIG. 12 is being executed, so that the main control unit 17 increases the effectiveness of the operation exclusion instruction waiting process without causing any trouble in the process. For this reason, even in the denomination unit replenishment mode, the process of step S45 described above is performed.

  The standby display control of the clerk panel unit 14 in step S45 in the denomination unit replenishment mode is maintained that the exchange transaction by the user is in operation although the display content is slightly different from that in the lane replenishment mode described above. Recognize to personnel. FIG. 25 is an explanatory view showing a display screen of the staff panel 14 for maintenance personnel when waiting for an operation exclusion command in the denomination unit replenishment mode. As shown in the figure, the main control unit 17 displays the notification column 62 and is currently operating a currency exchange transaction by the user. Therefore, in the denomination unit replenishment mode until the current currency exchange transaction is completed. Call attention to maintenance personnel to wait for refilling of packaging coins. The operation exclusion command standby in step S45 is canceled during the idle period in preparation for the next exchange transaction after the current exchange transaction ends.

  On the other hand, if the pressing timing of the execution button 57 (the start timing of the denomination unit replenishment mode) is within a period in which no exchange transaction has been made, the process proceeds to step S46, and the denomination unit replenishment mode described below is performed. Operation exclusion command and equipment control associated with it. That is, when the user's exchange transaction is not performed, the operation exclusion command in the denomination unit replenishment mode, the device control associated therewith, and the display control of the operation regulation contents are promptly performed. FIG. 26 is an explanatory view showing a display screen of the staff panel unit 14 corresponding to the operation exclusion command in the denomination unit replenishment mode. In FIG. 26, among the denomination buttons included in the denomination button group 70, the denomination buttons that have been selected as coin replenishment targets are continuously highlighted or colored.

  In step S46, the main control unit 17 performs an operation exclusion command in the denomination unit replenishment mode, device control associated therewith, and display control of operation restriction contents. 26 is provided to the maintenance staff at the time of the operation exclusion command and the device control associated therewith, and the denomination of the denomination selected from the denomination button group 70 of FIG. Recognize that coin replenishment can be started for the denomination type tray 25 of the denomination corresponding to the button (1 yen, 10 yen, 100 yen) and prompt the replenishment. In this case, the main control unit 17 stores the 1-yen, 10-yen, and 100-yen wrapping coins included in the left row wrapping coin module 22L and the right row wrapping coin module 22R together with or prior to the image display shown in FIG. For all the denomination trays 25 for use, the prohibition of the withdrawal of the tray made in step S45 is cancelled, and the release of the wrapping coins to the bucket 23 is prohibited. In other words, in the denomination unit replenishment mode, the left row wrapping coin module 22L and the left row wrapping coin module 22L are not distinguished and are treated equivalently.

  The release of the tray withdrawal prohibition is performed by driving the withdrawal prohibition solenoid 33 shown in FIG. 9 to the release side, and all types of money for storing the coins of 1 yen, 10 yen and 100 yen included in the left and right packaging coin modules. The tray 25 can be retracted as shown in FIG. In response to the image display shown in FIG. 26, the maintenance staff has room for replenishment of the wrapping coins among the 1-yen, 10-yen, and 100-yen wrapping coin storage denomination trays 25 to be replenished this time. With respect to a certain denomination tray 25, after pulling it out, the corresponding coin type (1, 10, 100 yen) is replenished, and after depletion, the denomination tray 25 is mounted. In addition, since the withdrawal tray for the denomination type tray 25 storing the wrapping coins of denominations other than 1 yen, 10 yen, and 100 yen, which is the target of coin replenishment this time, remains in the tray withdrawal prohibition. Thus, the money is not drawn out by the maintenance staff, and becomes the money type tray 25 to be withdrawn in FIG.

  The maintenance staff can confirm the room for coin replenishment by displaying the packaged coin set status list 58 included in FIG. Since the control unit 27 of the wrapping coin processing unit 12 always scans the number of wrapping coins stored in the denomination tray 25 with the wrapping coin detection sensor 41, Through the mounting of the tray 25, the number of display of the wrapping coin set status list 58 in FIG. 26 is updated as needed.

  In addition, the prohibition of the release of the wrapping coins from the denominated tray 25 to the bucket 23 is performed by using the arm portion 23a and the tray advancing / retreating mechanism shown in FIG. Driving is prohibited for all the denomination trays 25 for storage. Thereby, the 1-yen, 10-yen, and 100-yen wrapping coins that are the subject of coin replenishment this time are subject to the withdrawal reduction operation as described above, and this withdrawal reduction operation is performed by the arm portion 23a shown in FIG. It is secured through the prohibition of driving with the tray advance / retreat mechanism. That is, all the denomination trays 25 that store the above denominations that are targeted for withdrawal operation are excluded from the wrapping coin release targets in the wrapping coin dispensing process of FIG. Then, after the withdrawal operation is performed, the denomination tray 25 that stores wrapping coins of denominations other than the current coin replenishment target is continuously used for the exchange transaction. The main control unit 17 performs guidance display on the touch panel 2 on the front side of the apparatus in order to recognize to the user that such withdrawal withdrawal operation is in progress. FIG. 27 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of a guidance display for withdrawal reduction operation to be notified to the user. In the degenerate operation guidance screen shown in FIG. 27, along with the replenishment of wrapping coins in denomination units, the user is informed that 100 wrapping coins cannot be withdrawn during the replenishment. In addition, in the case of replenishing the above-mentioned three denominations of wrapping coins of 1 yen, 10 yen, and 100 yen, in FIG. It can also be displayed that it is limited to the release of wrapping coins of denominations other than 1 yen, 10 yen and 100 yen. In the latter display, the maximum number of wrapping coins released at that time can also be displayed. The maximum number of released coins is based on the number of currently stored coins (remaining amount of money) for each wrapping coin for each denomination displayed in the wrapping coin set status list 58 for denominations other than 1 yen, 10 yen, and 100 yen. It can be determined as described above.

  While the maintenance staff is replenishing the coins, the image display of FIG. 26 is performed on the staff panel 14 by the above-described step S46. When the maintenance staff completes the coin replenishment operation, the end button 63 is pressed, and instead of the 1 yen, 10 yen, and 100 yen, which have been targeted for replenishment, replenishment of coins of other denominations is also possible. When performing the above, the replenishment continuation button 64 is pressed. Therefore, the main control unit 17 scans the pressing state of both buttons (step S47), and continues the processing from step S48 according to the scan result in the same manner as the lane replenishment mode described above. In this case, in the lane replenishment mode, control for resuming operation is performed for all denomination trays 25 belonging to the left row wrapping coin module 22L or the right row wrapping coin module 22R, but in the denomination unit replenishment mode, The only difference is that the control is performed for all the denomination trays 25 that store the wrapping coins of denominations selected as replenishment targets.

  Next, coin replenishment in the end tray unit replenishment mode when the end tray button 56 is pressed instead of the lane unit button 54 on the first display screen of the staff panel 14 for maintenance personnel shown in FIG. explain. FIG. 28 is an explanatory diagram showing a guidance screen displayed on the staff panel 14 for maintenance personnel when the end tray button 56 and the execution button 57 of FIG. 17 are pressed in this order.

  When the maintenance person presses the end tray button 56 and the execution button 57 in FIG. 17 in this order, the maintenance person has selected the end tray replenishment mode corresponding to the end tray button 56. Accordingly, the main control unit 17 accepts this mode selection of the maintenance personnel, and displays a guidance screen shown in FIG. 28 in order to perform coin replenishment in the end tray unit replenishment mode corresponding to the end tray button 56. On this guidance screen, the wrapping coin set status list 58, the execution button 57, the end button 63, the denomination current status list 65, the number detection button 66, and precautions for maintenance personnel are displayed. (Step S43). In the wrapping coin set status list 58, since the current coin replenishment is in the end tray unit replenishment mode, the end state is displayed only for the denomination tray 25 in which the number of wrapping coins stored is the end state described above. ing.

  The denomination current status list 65 displays, for each denomination, the replenishable number, the presence / absence of withdrawal amount regulation, and the presence / absence of denomination regulation. The replenishable number is a replenishable number calculated based on the total number stored in the denomination tray 25 for each denomination. The withdrawal amount regulation and the denomination regulation are the regulations described in the operation regulation list 61 of FIG. 18. In the denomination current situation list 65, the necessity of such regulation is based on the current total number of storage for each denomination. Is displayed. For example, in FIG. 28, since only one tray is in an end state among the four denomination trays 25 for storing 500 yen wrapping coins, the main control unit 17 determines the amount of withdrawal in the total number of storage at this time. It is determined that no regulation or denomination regulation is necessary, and no regulation is displayed as shown. However, as shown in FIG. 28, when four trays out of the six denomination trays 25 for storing 100-yen wrapping coins are in an end state, for example, the withdrawal amount regulation and denomination regulation In order to impose both or one of the restrictions, it is displayed in the denomination current status list 65 that there is a restriction. In FIG. 28, it is displayed that the denomination restriction is imposed. Whether such regulation is necessary or not is determined based on the number of the remaining two denomination trays 25 for storing 100-yen coins (remaining amount of money). It is determined that there is a need to restrict the total number of stored items in the two types of trays 25, and display control of the current denomination list 65 is performed in order to impose the above restriction. In addition, depending on the amount of remaining money by denomination, there is a case where the regulation is not performed at all because the regulation is not necessary. Whether or not this regulation is necessary is determined based on the balance of the denomination displayed as the end state as described above. If all the denomination trays 25 are in an end state for a certain denomination, the denomination reduction operation is performed for that denomination as in the denomination unit replenishment mode. Moreover, although the display which shows the end state displayed by the wrapping coin set condition list | wrist 58 was shown in one Example, it can also be set as the display which shows a near end state.

  In the end tray unit replenishment mode, the end-type denomination tray 25 is a replenishment target, so that the tray selection by maintenance personnel is unnecessary. Therefore, the maintenance staff operates the execution button 57 on the display screen of FIG. 28 to enter the end tray unit replenishment mode. The main control unit 17 determines whether or not the exchange transaction is being performed by the user at the pressing timing of the execution button 57 described above by the maintenance staff (step S44). This is because, as described in the lane replenishment mode, the replenishment of the packed coins in the backyard and the operation of the actual money exchange transaction by the user are matched. As described with reference to FIG. 19, if the pressing timing of the execution button 57 (the start timing of the end tray unit replenishment mode) is during the operation of the exchange transaction by the user, an affirmative determination is made in step S44, and the main control unit 17 In the subsequent step S45, an operation exclusion command for replenishing the wrapping coins is put on standby until the exchange transaction currently being made ends. During this waiting period, the wrapping coin dispensing process shown in FIG. 12 is being executed, so that the main control unit 17 increases the effectiveness of the operation exclusion instruction waiting process without causing any trouble in the process. For this reason, even in the end tray unit replenishment mode, the processing in step S45 described above is performed in the same manner as in the denomination unit replenishment mode.

  In the end tray unit replenishment mode, since the denomination tray 25 to be replenished is determined in advance, the maintenance staff recognizes that the exchange transaction by the user is in operation by the display control of the staff panel 14 described above. Then, it waits for packaging coin replenishment. Further, in the operation exclusion command in the end tray unit replenishment mode and the device control associated therewith, the left row wrapping coin module 22L and the left row wrapping coin module 22L are treated equivalently as in the denomination unit replenishment mode. Then, the withdrawal of the tray withdrawal prohibition is performed for the denominated tray 25. As a result, the end-type denomination tray 25 can be withdrawn as shown in FIG. 7B, and the maintenance staff pulls out the end-state denomination tray 25 and then wraps the end-type denomination wrapping coin. After the replenishment, the denomination tray 25 is mounted. Note that the trays for denominations 25 that store wrapping coins of denominations other than the end state remain prohibited from being withdrawn, so these denomination trays 25 are not accidentally withdrawn by maintenance personnel. The money type tray 25 to be withdrawn.

  Further, even if the wrapping coin release from the denomination tray 25 to the bucket 23 is prohibited, it is applied to the denomination type denomination tray 25. As a result, the end-type denomination tray 25 is excluded from the wrapping coin release target in the wrapping coin dispensing process of FIG. 12, and the denomination tray 25 that stores wrapping coins of denominations other than the end state is used for currency exchange transactions. Will continue to be used. In this case, if the main control unit 17 displays the withdrawal amount and denomination restrictions on the denomination current status list 65 shown in FIG. 28, the touch panel 2 on the front side of the apparatus is required to recognize the contents of the restriction. A guidance screen as shown in FIGS. 22 and 27 is displayed.

  While the maintenance staff is replenishing coins, the image of FIG. 28 is displayed on the staff panel 14 by the above-described step S46. In the end tray unit replenishment mode, if the coin replenishment of the denomination tray 25 is completed in the end state, the replenishment of coins of the other denomination tray 25 is not necessary, so the maintenance personnel complete the operation of coin replenishment. And press the end button 63. The main control unit 17 scans the pressing state of the end button 63 (step S47), and continues the processing from step S48 according to the scan result in the same manner as the denomination unit replenishment mode described above. In this case, in the end tray unit replenishment mode, the control is performed for all denomination trays 25 that store the denominated wrapping coins that are in the end state.

  In the end tray unit replenishment mode, the end state denomination tray 25 is replenished, so that the maintenance personnel can recognize the end state. That is, the number detection button 66 is displayed on the guidance screen of FIG. 28, and the button operation is urged by precautions for maintenance personnel. When the number detection button 66 is pressed, the main control unit 17 performs final display control of the staff panel unit 14.

The wrapping coin set status list 58 on this screen allows maintenance personnel to recognize the completion of replenishment of wrapping coins for the denominated tray 25 in the end state. That is, in each denomination tray 25, the number of stored wrapping coins is automatically counted by the wrapping coin detection sensor 41, so the main control unit 17 receives the counting result from the control unit 27, and lists the wrapping coin set status list. The end display 58 is changed to a replenishment completion display.

  As described above, the automatic currency exchange apparatus 1 according to the present embodiment includes a plurality of denomination trays 25 each storing a wrapping coin 30 for the operation of a coin exchange transaction. When replenishing wrapping coins, the selection of the denomination tray 25 to be replenished is received from maintenance personnel. And about the money classification tray 25 of the replenishment object, this is excluded from operation | use of a coin exchange transaction. On the other hand, with respect to the denomination trays 25 excluding the depletion target denomination trays 25, these are used as denomination trays 25 for the replenishment of the wrapping coins, and the wrapping coins stored in the denomination tray 25 for the replenishment targets. 30 balances are calculated for each denomination (see FIG. 17). And in the case of the coin exchange transaction using the operation type denomination tray 25, a regulation based on the calculated balance of each denomination (hereinafter referred to as the denomination of the stored packaged coin 30) is imposed (FIG. 18, 22, 27, and 28), a coin exchange transaction using the money tray 25 to be operated is operated. For this reason, according to the automatic exchange device 1 of the present embodiment, it becomes possible to operate a cash transaction that satisfies the regulations based on the denomination balance of the packaged coins 30 stored in the denomination tray 25 to be operated. The continuity of cash transactions when replenishing coins can be improved. In addition, detailed operation regulation can be made in accordance with the actual situation of the balance of the denomination of the stored wrapping coin 30, and the continuity of operation can be increased accordingly. In this case, although it is subject to the regulation based on the balance of the denominated type of the stored wrapping coin 30, the cash transaction that meets the regulations in accordance with the actual situation of the denominated balance of the stored wrapping coin 30 will be continued to the user. Therefore, the convenience of the user can be maintained.

  Further, in the automatic currency exchange apparatus 1 according to the present embodiment, when imposing a regulation based on the denomination balance of the stored packaging coin 30, it is determined whether the regulation is necessary based on the denomination balance of the stored packaging coin 30. (Refer to FIG. 28) If the regulation is necessary, the regulation can be imposed as described above. By doing so, it becomes possible to operate a coin exchange transaction that satisfies the regulations based on the balance of the denominations of the packaged coins 30 stored in the denomination type tray 25 to be operated, and to operate a coin exchange transaction that does not regulate. The continuity of the coin exchange transaction when refilling the packaging coins can be further increased.

  Further, in the automatic currency exchange apparatus 1 according to the present embodiment, when receiving the selection of the denomination tray 25 to be replenished from the maintenance staff, it is included in either one of the left row packaging coin module 22L and the right row packaging coin module 22R. Lane replenishment mode for replenishment of denomination type tray 25, denomination unit replenishment mode for replenishment of denomination unit denomination tray 25, and replenishment of denomination type tray 25 with a small number of remaining storage of packaging coins 30 Three replenishment modes of the target end tray unit replenishment mode are presented to the maintenance staff with buttons corresponding to each mode. When the maintenance staff selects one of the three replenishment modes that have received this presentation, the automatic currency exchange apparatus 1 accepts the selected replenishment mode and prepares for the replenishment of packaging coins in the selected replenishment mode. Therefore, according to the automatic currency exchange apparatus 1 of the present embodiment, it is possible to reduce the work load when the maintenance staff selects a plurality of money-type trays 25 to be replenished, and to simplify the work.

  In addition, in the automatic currency exchange apparatus 1 of the present embodiment, when imposing a regulation based on the balance of the denomination of the stored wrapping coin 30, a transaction upper limit regulation for each denomination of the wrapping coin in one cash transaction, and a cash transaction At least one of the transaction degeneration regulations not to be targeted is imposed (see FIG. 22, FIG. 27, etc.). Therefore, the continuity of the cash transaction at the time of replenishment of the wrapping coins can be enhanced by the regulation according to the actual situation of the balance of the denomination of the stored wrapping coins 30. For example, if the balance of a denomination with stored wrapping coins 30 is small, the transaction upper limit can be regulated only for the wrapping coins of that denomination (see FIG. 22B). Alternatively, when a denomination is zero for a denomination, that is, when replenishing wrapping coins for all denomination trays 25 that store wrapping coins of a certain denomination, the wrapping coins of that denomination are not subject to cash transactions. The transaction can be reduced (see FIGS. 24 and 27). As a result of detailed regulations based on such circumstances, it is possible to further improve the continuity of operations, and to provide users with operations that match the actual circumstances.

  Moreover, the automatic currency exchange apparatus 1 of a present Example displays the content of the regulation accompanying wrapping coin replenishment with the staff panel part 14 and the touch panel 2 with respect to the maintenance staff who performs wrapping coin replenishment, and the user who desires a money exchange transaction. Thus, the contents of the regulations imposed when wrapping coins are replenished are recognized (see FIGS. 22, 24, and 27). Therefore, according to the automatic currency exchange apparatus 1 of the present embodiment, the user continues the desired transaction by informing the user of the operation regulation in advance via the regulation content display on the touch panel 2 on the front side of the apparatus. Therefore, the convenience can be enhanced. On the other hand, since the maintenance details are displayed on the staff panel unit 14 for maintenance personnel who replenish the packaging coins, the maintenance personnel can recognize the regulation details associated with the replenishment of packaging coins. For this reason, the maintenance personnel who select the denomination tray 25 that requires replenishment of the wrapping coins recognize the regulation contents accompanying the replenishment of the wrapping coins in advance, thereby selecting the denomination tray 25 to be replenished according to the situation. The above-mentioned three replenishment modes can be selected, which is desirable from the viewpoint of ensuring the continuation of subsequent transaction operations. Moreover, in the automatic currency exchange apparatus 1 according to the present embodiment, for the maintenance staff, the contents of the regulation are displayed on the staff panel unit 14 in association with the above-described three replenishment modes, so the maintenance staff displays this display. While watching, it is possible to more accurately select the replenishment-purpose money-type tray 25 according to the situation, and the work load at that time is reduced and simplified.
