Abstract

PURPOSE:To prevent bank bills from stopping even under heavy load by providing a means for energizing a backup body which energizes the body in a specified direction and moves the bank bill to a takeout position. CONSTITUTION:In moving a bank bill A in a storing member 301, a backup body 310 is once stopped so as to rise only a push-in plate 309, releases pushing against the bill A on the body 310, and raises the bill by a spring 370 pushing the body upwards at all times. The body 310 descends against the force of a returning spring 407 with the push-in action of the board 309 and is retained at that position against the force of the spring by putting an electromagnetic brake 405 ON. When the electromagnetic brake 405 is put OFF, the back up body 310 moves upward at a stroke due to the force of the spring 407.

Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Objective of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) The present invention is applicable to automatic deposit/withdrawal devices installed in, for example, mechanized corners of banks, which automatically deposit and withdraw banknotes. Relating to trading devices.

(Prior art) In recent years, in this type of automatic transaction device, in order to improve the efficiency of operating funds, a paper-doubling type automatic transaction type LCt has been put into practical use, in which banknotes that have been fully deposited are applied to banknotes to be withdrawn. .

This automatic transaction device usually uses a safe cassette which stores deposited banknotes that have been taken in and conveyed through a conveyance path and has a function of taking them out as bills for withdrawal.

Figure 31 shows the four components of a conventional safe cassette.
The field is a storage part, and a collection roller C and a beating wheel d are provided as a collection means in correspondence with a receiving opening formed on one side of the upper part of the storage part a. The deposited banknotes A are taken in and conveyed by the accumulating roller C and the beating wheel d via a conveyance path (not shown), and are fed into the storage section a and stacked horizontally.

In addition, there is an outlet/outlet formed on the other edge side of the upper part of the storage part a.
Correspondingly, a take-out roller f and a gout roller g are provided as take-out means, and these take-out rollers f and gout roller g are adapted to take out one banknote A from the storage section a one by one.

Further, flappers 1, 1 as partitioning means are provided below the beating wheel d and the gut roller g to hold the banknotes A stored in the storage section a and form an accumulation space. It has become.

In addition, a pushing plate j is provided at the upper part of the storage section a, and by the downward movement of this pushing plate J, the banknotes A accumulated in the accumulation space above the flappers 1, 1 are pushed 7 times l, l. In addition, the storage part a is provided with a backup plate k that is always urged upward by a spring (not shown), so that the stored banknotes A are constantly pushed upwards and withdrawn. During operation, the uppermost banknote is brought into contact with the take-out roller f.

In addition, since the accumulation space is formed as described above and the deposited banknotes A are temporarily accumulated in this accumulation space, when storing the banknotes or taking out the banknotes A, the banknote At-storage part a is In such a case, a method is used in which the banknote is moved by being sandwiched between a pusher plate j and a backup plate that is always urged upward by a spring.

(Problem to be Solved by the Invention) However, in such a conventional configuration, when the number of banknote storage sections in the storage section a increases, the contact resistance between the inner wall of the storage section a and the edge of the banknote A increases. However, in the method of moving banknotes A by sandwiching them from above and below, the backup plate k cannot be pushed up only by the biasing force of the spring, and banknotes A stop midway, resulting in poor stacking of banknotes and problems during the first transaction. There was a problem that withdrawal failures may occur when withdrawing money.

The present invention has been made based on the above-mentioned circumstances, and its purpose is to maintain the stability of bills during movement even when the contact resistance between the inner wall of the storage section and the edges of the banknotes increases as the number of storage sections for banknotes increases. To provide an automatic transaction device equipped with a safe cassette that can stably accumulate and store banknotes without stopping, and can maintain stable withdrawal.

[Structure of the Invention] (Means for Solving the Problems) In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a system in which deposited banknotes taken in and conveyed by a conveyance path are stored, and the stored banknotes are used as withdrawal banknotes. In an automatic transaction device equipped with a safe cassette having a retrieval function, the metal cassette stores a stacking means for stacking deposited banknotes taken and conveyed by the conveyance path, and banknotes stacked by the stacking means. a storage section for storing banknotes; a partition means for holding banknotes stored in the storage section to form a stacking space; a take-out means for taking out the banknotes stored in the storage section as bills to be dispensed; a pushing plate that pushes the banknotes into the storage unit and retreats from the path of movement of the banknotes during a banknote removal operation; a backup body that supports the banknotes in the storage unit;
A backup body biasing means for biasing the backup body in a predetermined direction and moving the banknote to the ejection position; After the banknote is evacuated from the bank, the holding operation of the backup body is released and the bill is moved only by the urging force of the backup body urging means.

(Function) That is, with the above configuration, the backup body can be moved all at once by using inertia force when the banknotes in the storage section are moved to the removal means side, and the storage amount of banknotes can be reduced. Even if the contact resistance is large and the contact resistance is large, the banknotes will not stop midway, and it is possible to maintain a stable stacking and storage of banknotes and a stable ejection function for the next transaction.

Nine lights are emitted from the light emitting element 320* between the light receiving element 320b and the pushing plate 309 and the backup 31.
The light-receiving element 320 passes through the transmission holes 309h and 310h while being tilted obliquely with respect to the moving direction of 0, that is, the vertical direction.
It is designed to be incident on b.

Further, the pushing plate 309 has notches in various places outside the above-mentioned transmission hole 309*, and the take-out rollers 304...

Feed rollers 305, 305, accumulation guide 351°3
51 and an integrated row 2302 (not shown). Further, high friction members 345, 345 are provided on a part of the lower surface facing the banknote A, and serve to hold down the banknote holder when pushing the banknote. High 4 friction member 34
5,345 is a rubber plate, for example, and the feed roller 3
05.305 and the feed roller 305,3
05, so it is pasted to prevent it from coming into contact with the banknote person when it is taken in. Also, at the time of accumulation ij.

The accumulation guides 351, 351 are high friction members 345°345
The high friction member 34 is used to guide people with one banknote.
5,345 will not be fused to the stacked banknotes and cause friction.

FIG. 17 shows how the pushing plate 309 pushes the banknote, and shows the pushing roller 304, gate row') 306,
Tee sandwiched between the pick-up roller 307 and the pick-up roller 307 indicate a state in which the tip is returned to the tip by pulling back the tip A''.

No, the push plate 309 has a high friction member (rubber plate) 345.
If not pasted, the coefficient of friction between the pushing plate 309 and the bill person is μS1, the coefficient of friction between the bills is μB, and the pushing plate 309 is
If 09 pushes in the bill A against the elastic lifting force of the /4 pick-up 310 and the pushing force is W, then the force Flμ that pulls out the banknote A is maximum F1 = (μS 10 μB) W. Become.

On the other hand, as in the present invention, the pushing plate 309 has 7tS, JL
When the j+ member (rubber plate) 345 is attached, the height of the push plate 309 is J:X between the rubbing member 345 and the paper? Let μB be the dominant coefficient with IfA, and if we think in the same way as above, Choro ticket A”
The force F2 that pulls out is the maximum F, = (μR + μB)W. Unless these FlnFm become larger than Kranshika R in the intake row 2304 section, it will not be possible to extract Ciro Deho A''.Kranshika R is.

A part of the take-out row 2304, the f-) row 2306, the pick-up roller 307, etc. are generally made of rubber, and the take-out roller 304 and the y-troller 30 are generally made of rubber.
Considering that the gap between the ball and the 6 is small, depending on the degree of Ciro's appearance, it can be a relatively large force.

In the above friction coefficient, considering that the push plate 309 is made of metal or plastic, generally μB〉μB〉μ
B>O. Therefore, the pulling forces F1 and F2 satisfy Fs>Ft. Therefore, the high friction member 345 is attached to the push plate 309.
By pasting it, you can increase the force to pull out the tile A#, and when pushing it in, it can be pulled out securely without causing any slippage between the pushing plate 309 and the tile A#. It is possible to stably perform the movement of exit and return.

FIG. 18 shows the configuration of an accumulation stopper guide 350 as an accumulation guide member. The accumulation stop/'P guide 350 is provided with a hole 350* and a long hole 350b,
These are fitted into the pin 315a of the flapper 315 and the pin 353hVC of the disk 353 and are supported. The hook/4315 rotates around the shaft 315b and attaches to the disk 3.
53 is rotatable around a fulcrum 353b. The link 352 is a link that connects the fulcrum 315c of the flapper 315 and the fulcrum 353C of the disk 353. As described above, the hook/4315 is the shaft 315.
If it is rotated by b, the fruit-shaped stump guide 350 will move in conjunction with this.

Normally, a rotational force is transmitted to the flapper 1315b by a spring 359 (see J in FIG. 1) built into the safe cassette 16, and the hook 14315 is moved outside the storage chamber 301 as shown by tJ (&) in FIG. It's out. At this time, the guide end surface 350d of the accumulation stopper guide 350 is substantially flush with the take-out floor 316.

18), a rotational force in the opposite direction to the rotational force by the spring described above is transmitted to the hook shaft 315b from a drive source outside the safe cassette 16 (not shown), and the flapper 4315 is ejected [70a 315]. It shows a state in which it protrudes from the inner wall surface. The flapper 315 is stopped at a predetermined position when its stop A/portion 315d abuts against the outer wall surface of the outlet floor 316.

At this point, the guide end surface 35 of the integrated stopper guide 350
0du, it protrudes from the inner wall surface of the take-out floor 316 by a dimension C and guides the end face of the banknote A, and its upper end 350c is nested with the take-out roller 304, so that the banknote A is placed between the take-out roller 304 and the gut roller 306. It is designed to prevent it from entering.

Moreover, when the stored banknotes A are held in this state, the stored banknotes A... push up the banknote support part 315e of the hook/4315 by the lifting force of the pack-ag body 310, so that the hook/'? 315 (particularly from the driving source) can maintain a state of protruding into the storage section 301 even if no rotational force is applied, and can reliably press and hold the stored banknotes A.

Figure 19 shows the accumulated stock! The guide 3500at is shown in FIG. 19(,) as it is being stacked, FIG. 19(b) is as it is being pushed in by the pushing plate 309, and FIG. State of being stored in the 19th
Is the figure (d) a person with stored banknotes? It shows how it is taken out.

That is, the stacked banknotes A shown in FIG.
Since the banknotes A are guided and stacked by the stacking stop/IP guide 350 with the tip d protruding, the leading edge of the banknote A does not enter the gap between the take-out row 2304 and the gut roller 306, and is aligned and stacked.

Here, when the storage section 3010 width is H1 and the banknote AO width is L, the protrusion C of the accumulation stopper guide 350 is C=H
−L, therefore, the stacked banknotes A
While maintaining a gap C between the paper money and the inner wall surface of the take-out floor 316, the paper money is aligned and stacked to a width approximately equal to the width of the banknotes.

When the banknotes accumulated in this manner are pushed in and stored, the stored banknotes A are kept between the banknote C and the inner wall surface of the take-out floor 316 with a width of about l, as shown in FIG. 19(c). Stored neatly.

Note that the tip of bill A, which is curled and curled, is stacked with the tip floating upward, and as shown in FIG. Without entering the gap between the rollers 306, they fall on the stacking horn 4 guide 3501, and are horizontally stacked on the top of the flats/moss 315, 315. Therefore, the advance and accumulation of banknotes A3 which will enter next time is not obstructed.

The banknotes are accumulated while being properly aligned.

In addition, since the banknote stopper guide 350 operates in conjunction with the flanno 9315, when a stacked state is formed by the seven flapper 315 during stacking, the stacking stopper guide 350 is always nested with the take-out roller 304, and
It is possible to arrange the stacked banknotes by a traveling machine, and it is possible to realize a highly reliable collection fjt without any malfunctions.

The rear end side of the stored banknote AO is in contact with the inner wall surface of the entrance side floor 318 of the storage section 30, and when the banknote A moves up and down in the storage section 301, a resistance force is generated. The resistance force is smaller than the resistance force of the banknotes stored in the misaligned state, and the rate of increase as the amount of banknotes A increases is almost constant. Therefore, when taking out the banknotes stored in this way, the frictional resistance that the banknote A receives against the inner wall of the storage section 30 is extremely small, as shown in FIG. Accordingly, in order to maintain a stable thick shape, by raising the banknote A with an appropriate pack-up force, it is possible to keep the pressing force between the take-out roller 304 and the banknote person substantially constant. Also, banknote A
Even when there are a large number of banknotes A, the stored banknotes A can generate the same pressing force as when they are set by an attendant, so even a large number of banknotes A can be held stably. It becomes possible to take it out.

Also, during the accumulation shown in Fig. 19 (,), the backup body 3
Due to the oppression of 10 people, the furanos 31
5 is in a locked state and does not move. Therefore, the accumulation stopper guide 350 does not move, and the accumulation stopper guide 350 does not become unnested during accumulation.

In addition, after the first storage operation shown in FIG. 19(c) is completed, the bill person is not pushed up from the backup body 310 and a gap is not created between the bill A and the Furano 4315.315, and the next There is no possibility that the banknotes A will get into the gap during the deposit transaction and cause stacking failure.

In addition, the pushing plate 309 temporarily stops at the position of the flannel 4315, 315 during storage as shown in FIG.

Also, during the withdrawal preparation operation, when moving the banknotes A in the storage section 301 to the take-out roller 304f4.

The backup body 310 is temporarily stopped and only the push plate 309 is raised to release the pressure on the banknote A on the backup body 310, and the spring 370 (FIG. 20(c) The bill A is raised only by the urging force (see ), and the backup body 310 is pushed up at once using inertia force. Thereby, even when the amount of banknotes A stored is large and the contact resistance force is large, the banknote handler does not stop midway and the banknotes are brought into contact with the take-out roller 30i reliably.

Therefore, troubles such as being unable to take out or taking out in a skinny state can be prevented, and a stable taking out function can be maintained.

In addition, at the time of withdrawal, as shown in FIG. 19(d), the stacking stopper guide 350 is retracted from the take-out roller 304 so that it does not get in the way of the banknotes A being unnested and taken out. 304 and gate low 230
It is taken out from the gap r=j with 6.

Figure 20A shows the external appearance of the gold layer cassette 16 and the Furano J
? The operating mechanism 360 is shown, and the upper part of the osmanthus cassette 16 forms a conveyance path so that part of the outer periphery of the collecting roller 302 and the take-out roller 304 is exposed from the safe cover 344.

In addition, a guide roller 3 is arranged so that a part of the upper surface part protrudes.
42... are arranged, and are in rolling contact with rollers 345... provided in the sheet feeding section 3o.

In addition, seven flapper operating levers 370, 370, which are integrated with IIt 1315b, 315b of the flapper maters 315, 315, are arranged on one side of the outer wall surface of the safe cassette 16, and these flapper operating levers 370° 370 are placed on the second side of the main body of the device. By rotating the flapper operating mechanism 360 provided in the flapper 315, the flapper 315 is operated.

The flapper actuation mechanism 360 is a flapper actuation lever 370.370, as shown in FIGS. 20A and 20B.
The guide rollers 371 and 371 attached to the free end side are pushed up by the upper surface of the upper horizontal portion 372a of the drive plate 372. The drive plate 372 has a plurality of rollers 374 attached to the frame 373 of the device main body 2.
The vertical plate portion 372bf is vertically movably guided by ..., and the vertical plate portion 372bVC is guided by the long hole 375.
is formed and the drive grate operates/? ,? The free Mi4K-spreading guide roller 377 of 71j is in an engaged state. Further, a plunger solenoid 318 is connected to the pivot end side of the drive plate operating lever 316.

When the plunger solenoid 378 is in the "off" state, the drive plate 372
The flapper operating levers 370 and 370 have not been raised to rotate, and the flan/#315 is in an open state (vertical state). Further, when the plunger solenoid 378 is in the "on" state, the drive plate 372 rises as shown in FIG.
is in a closed state (horizontal state).

Further, FIG. 20C shows a moving vJ mechanism 379 of the pushing plate 309,
and a moving mechanism 380 of the backup body 310.

First, the push plate movement @ structure 329 will be explained.

In the figure, reference numeral 308 denotes a slide shaft provided vertically, and a push plate stay 362 is attached to this slide shaft 308 via a linear ball bearing 281 so as to be vertically movable. A pusher asas is rotatably attached to the tip side of the pusher plate stay 3670 via a fixture 382.

The base end side of the pushing plate 361 is connected to an endless timing belt 391 stretched through a timing pulley 389 and an idler boot 1.1390. The timing pulley 389 is integrally provided with a driven gear 392 and a spring reversing pulley 393.
Drive gear 395 attached to the drive shaft of Luz motor 394
It is designed to mesh with the In addition, the push plate stay 36
One end of a push plate return spring 396 is connected to the base end of the push plate 7, so that the push plate 309 is constantly urged upward.

The other end of the push plate return ring 396 is wrapped around a spring reversing pulley 393 and folded downward to be fixed to a spring retaining pin 397 provided near the idler pulley 390.

Then, by moving the push plate driving/mother motor 394fi, the push plate 309 and the push plate return spring 396 are moved.
The lowered paper sheet WfA is pushed into the storage section 301 against the urging force of the pushing plate 309μ, and the motor 394 is made inactive, so that the pushing plate 309μ is pushed into the upper home position by the urging force of the spring 396. It will be configured to return.

Next, the backup body moving mechanism 380 will be explained. A backup body stay 368 is attached to the slide shaft 308 via a linear ball bearing 381 so as to be vertically movable. A knock-up body 310 is attached to the tip side of the backup body stay 368 via a fixture 369 so as to be freely rotatable in two directions (three dimensions) so as to press the banknote A evenly against the take-out roller 304. . The base end side of the backup body 310 is connected to an endless timing belt 402 stretched through a timing pulley 400 and an idle pulley 401 .

The timing pulley 400 is integrally provided with a gear 403 and a spring reversing pulley 404, and the driven member 403 is provided on the device main body 2 side.An electromagnetic brake 4 for controlling the backup body as pull-up body holding means
It meshes with a gear 406 attached to the output shaft of 05. Furthermore, one end of the backup body return ring 407 is connected to the base end of the pull-up body stay 368), so that the backup body 310 is constantly urged upward. 4 other than the backup body return spring 407 is a spring reversal pulley 4
The spring catch 74 is wrapped around 04 and folded downward.
It is fixed at 08.

Then, the backup body 310 descends against the biasing force of the backup body return spring 407 as the pushing plate 309 pushes, and by turning on the electromagnetic brake 405, the backup body 310 is moved by the biasing force of the spring 407. It can be held in that position by resisting. When the electromagnetic brake 405 is turned off, the backup body 310 is moved upward by the biasing force of the spring 407.

A magnet 410 is attached to the base end of the push plate stay 367 and the backup body stay 368, and a reed switch 41 is attached to the device main body 2 side.
1... (only the negative portion is shown) are arranged to detect the positions of the push plate 309 and the pack-up body 310.

Next, the storage and production of the safe cassette 16 configured as described above will be explained.

First, during standby, as shown in FIG. is placed, and this banknote A is elastically suppressed from below by a backup body 310. Therefore, when stacking banknotes A, the stacking roller 30
2 and the beating wheel 303, the banknotes A are sequentially taken in, and the stacking state is regulated by the stacking block 350, and the stacking space 301a is placed above the flappers 4'315, 315.
[See FIG. 21(b)].

When the taking in of banknotes A is completed, a storage operation is performed.

This operation will be explained with reference to FIG. 22 as well.

The push plate 309 is lowered and the accumulation space (-time storage section) 301
m of banknotes A are pushed up together with the flat motherboards 315, 315 and the backup body 310 and moved to the specified storage position [FIG. 22 (Step 1)].

After this, in this state, the backup body moving mechanism 38
The backup body 310 is fixed by turning on the electromagnetic brake 405 [FIG. 21(c)] [FIG. 22 (Step 2)]. Here, banknotes A for the accumulation space 301a
A residual check is performed by the burnt banknote detector 320, and if no residual is detected, only the push plate 309 is raised with the backup body 310 fixed. Tefurano 14315゜3
Stop at position 15 [Figure 22 (Step 4)].

After this, the solenoid 378 [Furano 9
315, 315 are closed [Fig. 22(d)
(Step 5) After this, in this state, by turning off the electromagnetic brake 405 as a backup body holding means, the backup body 310 and the banknote A are raised [FIG. 21 (e).

As a result, the banknotes A are retained by the flappers 315, 315 and held in a stacked state below them [FIG. 22 (Step 6)].

Also, the push plate 309 is raised and returned to the standby position [second
Figure 1 (f) [Figure 22 (Stella 7"7)].

On the other hand, in FIG. 22 (step 3), if residual bills are detected and the pick-up bill existence detector 320 is "dark", the push plate 309 is raised with the backup body 310 fixed. and return it to the standby position [22nd Prisoner (Step 8)].

After this, the backup body 310 is raised by turning off the magnetic brake 404 [22nd garden (step 9)]
], the above-mentioned accumulation and storage process is repeated again.

On the other hand, the 23rd recess is for the operation when taking out one banknote A.

This will be explained with reference to FIG. From the standby state shown in FIG. 23(,), the pushing plate 309 is lowered, the flappers 315, 815 are opened, the accumulation stopper guide 350 is retracted from the take-out roller 304, and the pushing plate 309 is placed on the upper surface of the banknote A.
9 hits [Figure 23 (b)] [Figure 24 (Step 1)
Ko. After this, in this state, the electromagnetic brake 404 is
turn on" and fix the backup body 310 [24th
Figure (Stella f2)]. After that, only the push plate 309 is raised and returned to the standby position [Fig. 23 (c)] [Fig. 24 (
Step 3) Ko. In this state, the electromagnetic brake 404
By [OFF], the back-up 310 and bill Ai are raised and returned to the standby position, and the bill A comes into contact with the take-out roller 304 and the feed roller 305 [FIG. 23(d)] [FIG. 24 (Stella 7'4) )Ko.

In this state, the action of the take-out row 2304 and the feed roller 305 causes the comb surface 3 of the take-out roller 304 to
04&, and when a predetermined number of bills have been taken out, the taking-in timing detection switch 32
In response to the signal No. 3, the take-out roller 304 is stopped in a state where the IRk is maintained so that the surface 3041 does not come out onto the transport path surface of the banknote A and does not come into contact with the banknote AK remaining in the storage section 301.
Figure 23 (・)].

By the way, the banknotes are taken out only when the rubber surface 3Q4& of the takeout row 2304 comes into contact with the banknote A.
The leading edges of the other banknotes A, except for the banknote A that is being taken out, should remain flush with the removal side floor 316 of the storage section 301. Normally, this is because the removal is done using a goo roller 306.

The leading edge of bill A may have been guided to the position of the guide roller 306, or the timing of taking it out may have been delayed for some reason. Green is pickup roller 30
Sometimes it even reaches the 7 position.

However, when banknotes A are stored in a stack, as shown in Fig. 21 (
, ), push the bill A in the storage section 301 below the flappers 315, 315,
Since the accumulation space 301a must be formed above the banknote 315, if there is a banknote A (hereinafter referred to as "Choro Deho A") whose leading edge protrudes from the withdrawal side floor 316 as described above, this Choro Deho A When " is pressed by the push-in plate 309, its tip edge may break and it may become impossible to take out when taking it out. For this reason, move the Chillo Debutsu A" to a position where it is flush with the take-out side floor 316. need to pull back.

Therefore, when the banknotes are taken out one by one and a predetermined number of sheets have been taken out, if the leading edge of the banknote is protruding to the pickup roller 307, this is detected by the removal detector 317. Based on this, the banknote is taken out as a reject ticket and stored in a reject warehouse.

Next, if there is a "cheer 0 out 8 A" whose leading edge protrudes into the groove roller 306, that is,
Regarding the operation when the take-out detector 317 is “bright”, the 25th
This will be explained with reference to FIGS.

First, the push plate 309 is lowered. At this time, the push plate 309
The high friction member 345 contacts and presses the tip A'' while reliably pulling it back from the groove roller 306.
Figure 25)] [Figure 26 (Step 1)]. moreover]
The banknotes A and the banknotes At accumulated on the backup body 310 are pressed by the pushing plate 309 and moved downward integrally with the backup body 310.

Then, at the point where it has moved to a certain position, the electromagnetic brake 4
o 41r on" to fix the backup body 310.
Figure 26 (Step 2) Pushing plate 3 in this state
Raise only 09 and return it to the standby position [Figure 25 (b)
[Figure 26 (Step 3)].

In response to this, the suppression of the banknote A on the backup body 310 is released. Thereafter, in this state, the electromagnetic brake 404 is turned off to raise the backup body 310 [Fig. 25 (C)] [Fig. 26 (Step 4)]
)].

At this time, since the pressure on the banknotes A on the backup body 310 has been released, the banknotes DA" located on the top layer are freely moved and aligned due to friction with the take-out floor 316. Ru.

Here, the push plate 309 is lowered again and pushed below the banknote Afc [Fig. 26 (Step 5)], and then, in this state, the electromagnetic brake 404 is turned on to fix the Δ pull-up body 310. [Figure 26 (Step 6). Here, the remaining banknotes A in the upper accumulation space 301a are detected by the banknote presence/absence detector 320 [FIG. 26 (Step 7)]
, if this banknote presence/absence detector 320 is "dark".

Since the positioning of the "Pulse A" is insufficient, the push plate 309 is returned to the standby position with the backup body 310 fixed [Fig. 26 (Step 8)], and then the electromagnetic Turn off the brake 404 and turn off the backup body 310.
The above-mentioned alignment operation of raising the position is repeated [FIG. 26 (Step 9)]. Also.

If the banknote presence/absence detector 320 is "bright" in FIG. 26 (step 7), it means that the alignment of the banknote exit A#O is completed, and the push plate 3 is moved with the backup body 310 fixed.
Raise only the flapper 09 and stop it at the position of the flappers 315, 315 [Fig. 26 (step 10)]. After this,
The flappers 315, 315 are brought down via the solenoid [Fig. 26(d)] [Fig. 26 (step 11)], and then, in this state, the backup body 310 and the banknote A are 25 (@) [Fig. 26 (Step 12)].

Also, the push plate 309 is raised and returned to the standby position [25th
Figure (f) [Figure 26 (Step 13)].

On the other hand, when taking out banknotes A, when all the banknotes A in the storage section 301 are taken out, as shown in FIG. Accordingly, the banknote presence/absence detector 320 is turned on, and the backup body 310 is pressed by the push plate 309 and lowered together with the push plate 309 (FIG. 27(b)).

And, the jerk-up body 310 is Furano A4315,
315, these Furano A315
315 is the solenoid 378 of the flapper operating mechanism 360
Closed by "on" of these flappers f315.31
5 locks the backup 310, and the push plate 3
09 rises and returns to the standby position [Fig. 27(c)].

At this time, the emitted light from the one banknote presence/absence detector 320 is transmitted through the transmission hole 309.
h, 309b, but this emitted light passes through the push plate 3
09 and the backup body 310, the emitted light becomes transmitted light 309m relative to the movement of the push plate 309 and the backup body 310.

310 & is in a state where it sequentially transitions from one end side to the other end side, so that the wide area S on the upper surface of the backup body 310
Nitrogen detection for [see Figure 27 (,)] becomes possible,
Therefore, even if a banknote A such as a folded ticket or a coin roll remains on the backup body 310, it can be accurately detected without missing it.

FIG. 28 is for explaining the electric circuit. That is, the main control section 450 controls the entire system, and the deposit/withdrawal mechanism control section 45 receives signals from the main control section 450 and f.

Next, the operation in such a configuration will be explained. For example, first of all, a customer (customer) must look at the information display section (CRT i).
(Reception part) Insert the card into the card insertion slot 5 while referring to the operation guide "Please insert your card or passbook" displayed on the IOIIC. Then, the data on the magnetic stripe of the card is read by a reader (not shown),
The signal is supplied to the main control section 450. As a result, the main control unit 4
Check the validity of the 50f'i card. If the card is valid, the main control unit 450 displays information on the guide display unit 10.
ΔThen, the customer presses the operation button 8 to enter the PIN.
, the main controller 5450 checks whether the password read from the card and the password input using the operation button 8 match or are related. If it matches,
Or, if the relationship satisfies a predefined rule, the main control unit 450 displays the guidance display unit 10 to “select a transaction type” and also displays “deposit, withdrawal, exchange transfer, balance inquiry.” ” selection will display the instructions for the tongue.

When a transaction item is selected and the operation button 8 corresponding to deposit is pressed, the main control section 450 enters a deposit acceptance state and outputs a deposit command to the deposit/withdrawal mechanism 12. As a result, the person withdrawing money Isomizo 12 opens the shutter 115 of the depositing and dispensing lower part. Next, when the customer inserts the bundle of banknotes A, both front and back denominations, into the accumulator 154, which serves as a banknote receptacle, in a three-dimensional form, and then closes the shutter 115, the shutter close detector 119
detects that the shutter 115 is closed.

Next, the floor 1 drive motor 111 rotates at high speed.

Accordingly, the first floor 107 at the bottom of the accumulation section 154
vibrates up and down, and this vibration aligns the bill A.

At this time, when the detector 157 detects a failure in stacking banknotes A, the main control unit 450 opens the shutter 115 and displays on the guide display unit 10, ``Please insert the banknotes correctly and close the door.''
I will guide you. When the shutter 115 is closed, the sorting operation is performed again, and after the main control unit 450 determines that the banknotes have been correctly deposited into the stacking section 154 based on the detection by the detectors 157 and 151, the banknotes A are transferred to the take-in roller. 103, one by one, starting from the 414th one. This taken-in banknote A is conveyed via the taking-in conveyance path 38h (shown in FIG. 3). At this time, the paper board passage detector 40a detects the intake of the paper sheets A, and the main control unit 450 counts the number of sheets to be captured based on the detection signal. In addition, when the banknote A passes through the hill portion 35, the "short length" and "longitudinal length" are determined.

"Magnetic pattern matching", "Color separation of transmitted light", "
By detecting things such as "division matching of minute parts by reflected light", it is possible to "distinguish the ticket type", "distinguish authenticity",
“Mounting determination” and “new/old ticket determination” are performed, and the results are supplied to the main control unit 450. Thereby, the main control unit 450 counts the inspection results using a counter (not shown). In addition, the main control unit 450 controls the deposit/withdrawal mechanism 12 when the banknote A is found to be "false" in the authenticity determination, is overlapped, is significantly skewed, or is damaged and cannot be recognized as a valid banknote. Outputs an exclusion signal. As a result, when the leading edge of the paper #A reaches the banknote passage detector 4Of, the third sorting dart 39C moves leftward to the fourth shaking dart 39.
d is rotated to the left. Then, the banknotes A are temporarily accumulated in the withdrawal-time accumulation section 36.

On the other hand, it was determined to be "gu" by the authenticity determination, and "gu" was determined by the front/back determination.
In the case of a banknote that is determined to be "back", the banknote controller 450 outputs the signal to the deposit/withdrawal mechanism 12.

As a result, the banknote A is distributed to the banknote 39c.

39d, the money is sorted through the left conveyance path, and then accumulated in the deposit-time accumulation section 37. In addition, banknotes A that are determined to be "true" by the Genki authenticity determination and "front" by the front/back determination are sorted by the sorting gate 39c and deposited through the right-hand bank transfer path.
The time is accumulated in the time accumulation section 37.

Further, when the inspection result is that the note is an old note, the deposit/withdrawal mechanism 12 turns on the Branjan renoid 236, and as shown in FIG.
The stacking guide 234 moves to the position shown by the two-dot chain line to widen the width of the stacking a. - Once turned on, the deposit/withdrawal mechanism 12 maintains the on state until the receiving process is completed.

On the other hand, when the detector 151 detects that there are no banknotes in the stacking section 154, the rotation of the taking-in row 2103 is stopped and the taking-in process is ended.

Next, when the discarded banknotes A are accumulated in the dispensing-time accumulation unit 36, an arm (not shown) moves downward and the discarded paper is transferred to the conveyor bell (IgO and 181). They are then conveyed to the stacking section 154 [Fig. 11 (
,)reference]. The rejected banknotes A thus returned to the stacking section 154 and stacked are taken in and conveyed again, and a deposit process is performed.

In this way, all the input papers are accumulated and then counted and collated. Out of the genuine bills judged by the Tsumashi check section 35, the number of 10,000 yen bills, 5,000 yen bills, and 1,000 yen bills are detected as they pass along the conveyance path to the deposit-time accumulation section 37. The number of sheets counted by each of the counters 401 and 40h is verified by the main control section 450, and the count is guaranteed by double checking.

After the counts are verified in this way, the main control unit 45
0 displays the number of tickets on the type side and the total amount deposited on the guide display section 10 of the operation panel section 3, prompting the customer to confirm the amount of money to be deposited and the number of tickets on the type side. Customer confirmed? When the button is pressed, after online communication, if the acceptance is "acceptable", the paper money in the deposit-time accumulation section 37 is transferred to the accumulation section 154 of the banknote loading/unloading device 15.
transported to. That is, the timing belt 205 of the deposit-time accumulation section 37 is lowered, and the pedestal 220 is further retracted below the conveyor belt 214. Therefore, the banknotes A accumulated on the pedestal 220 are held between the timing belt 205 and the conveyor belt 214 and conveyed from the stacking section 230 [see FIG. 13(C)].

Next, in the banknote loading/unloading device 15, the backup 1
02 and Front i! The flannel 101 moves to the opposite side of the take-in roller 103, and it clicks! 102 movable part 145
opens outward to receive the paper money conveyed from the deposit/time accumulation section 37 via the discharge roller 127 and accumulate it in the accumulation section 154.

Further, the taking-in roller 103 is rotated and the banknotes A are taken in one by one. This taken-in paper belt A is taken in by the taking-in conveyance path 38*
It is transported via f. At this time, paper transfer is detected by the banknote passage detector 4Qa, and the main control unit 450 counts the number of paper sheets taken in based on the detection signal. In addition, at 91 when the banknote A passes through the i section 35, the "short side length" is again set.
, "Longitudinal length", "Magnetic pattern matching", "Color separation of transmitted light", "Separation and matching of minute parts using reflected light", etc. are performed, and "bill type discrimination" is performed.
“Authenticity determination” and “fit/failure determination” are performed, and the results are supplied to the main control unit 450.

Thereby, the main control unit 450 counts the inspection results using a counter (not shown). In addition, if the main control unit 450 picks up a banknote A1 that is found to be "false" in the authenticity determination, if it cannot be recognized as a valid banknote due to slight force, extremely skewed banknotes, or damaged banknotes, the main control unit 450 causes the deposit/withdrawal mechanism 12 to reject the banknote A1. Output a signal. As a result, the tip of the bill suction A is connected to the bill passage detector 40j.
When it reaches , the 70th vibration molecule -) 39 g is rotated to the left. Then, that banknote A is 5,000 yen/exclusion ticket/
The collected banknotes are accumulated in the collected banknote storage section 22.

On the other hand, if the 5,000 yen paper is determined to be "true" in the authenticity determination, the main control unit 450 outputs the signal to the deposit/withdrawal machine ↑Jg12. As a result, the banknote A has a oscillating molecule f −t3
9 g and are accumulated in the third safe cassette 18. At this time, in safe cassette 18, Furano mother 31
5, 315 are held in a closed state protruding into the storage section 22 (301), and a collection space 301a is formed above the banknotes A315, 315.
, the beating wheel 303 , and the accumulation stopper 350 .

On the other hand, 1,000 yen banknotes and 10,000 yen banknotes operate in the same manner and are accumulated in the accumulation spaces 3o1hVC of the first and second safe cassettes 16 and 17, respectively. During the above-mentioned stacking operation, the main control unit 450 counts the number of stacked bills of 5,000 yen, 1,000 yen, and -10,000 yen using a counter (not shown) based on the detection signals of 40 m and 40 o sent to the passage detector 40.

On the other hand, when the banknote presence/absence detector 151 detects that there are no banknotes in the stacking section 154, the rotation of the loading section-momme 104 is stopped, and the loading process is ended.

When the taking in is completed, the banknote storing operation shown in the 22nd cause is carried out, and the taken in paper money is latched to the Furano + 315 t315 and held under it in an unstacked state [Fig. 21 (f)] reference].

Next, when selecting a transaction item, when the operation button 8 corresponding to withdrawal is fully inserted, the main control unit 450 displays the guidance text "Please press the button for the amount and finally press the Yen Gotan" on the guidance display. Show it by IQ. Next, the customer inserts the amount using button 8 according to the instructions. By inserting this amount, the main control section 450 causes the guidance display section 10 to display a message saying, ``If the amount is correct, press the 4' confirmation button, or if the exchange button is incorrect, press the correction button.''. this? By pressing down on the tongue,
The main control section 450 causes the guidance display section 10 to display the guidance text "Communication in progress. Please wait for a while."

At this time, the main control unit 450 performs online communication and outputs a withdrawal command to the deposit/withdrawal device 12. As a result, the deposit/withdrawal device 12 deposits the first banknote A1 corresponding to the above amount. The money is removed from the second safe cassette 16, 17 and accumulated in the withdrawal-time accumulation section 36.

That is, from the standby state shown in FIG. 23(a) to the 24th
The withdrawal preparation operation shown in the figure is performed, and the banknote A is transferred to the take-out roller 3.
04 and the feed roller 305 [FIG. 23(d)]. In this state, the take-out roller 304 and the feed roller 305 operate so that the take-out roller 30
The banknotes A are sequentially taken out through the rubber surfaces 304&f of 4, and when a predetermined number of sheets have been taken out, the rubber surface 304m brings out the banknotes A onto the transport path surface and does not contact the banknotes AK remaining in the storage section 30. Take out row 2 while maintaining the position.
304 stops [Fig. 23(-)]. 39 m of bill Al″i sorting darts were taken out in this way.

39b, 39c, 39d, 39m, 39fj39g.

39b and 391 and accumulated in the withdrawal-time accumulation section 36. At this time, the banknote A taken out from the first safe cassette 16 for 10,000 yen is detected by the banknote passage detector 40n, and based on the detection signal, the main control unit 450 counts the number of banknotes taken out. Further, the banknote A taken out from the second safe cassette 17 for 1,000 yen is detected by the banknote passage detector 401.
The extraction is detected by the main 1σ1
j Mito 450 is counting the number of sheets taken out. Also, when the removed banknote A passes through the inspection section 35, "bill type discrimination" etc. is performed, and the result is sent to the main 1lfilJ control section 45.
It is supplied to 0. Thereby, the main control unit 450 counts the inspection results using an h counter (not shown).

Furthermore, the banknotes A to be stacked in the payout-time stacking unit 36 are detected by the banknote passing detector 40g, and based on the detection signal, the main control unit 450 calculates the number of banknotes to be stacked.

λ And one bill passing detector 40! When the number of sheets to be taken out by the first .I. The removal of banknotes A from the second safe cassette 16° 17 is completed. In addition, the main control unit 450 performs number verification based on whether the added number of thousand yen banknotes and ten thousand yen banknotes according to the inspection result matches the accumulated number of banknotes.

At this time, the taken out banknote A passes through the inspection section 35 and is
Safe cassette 16.1 corresponding to each ticket by "ticket type discrimination"
It is reconfirmed that this is the type of ticket taken out. Normally, re-examination is not necessary for this "discrimination of ticket type," but it is best to re-examine the ticket since it cannot be said that there are no errors when setting the missing amount.

Regarding "determination of fitness and loss", depending on the operation mode at the time of deposit,
It will be determined whether classification based on fitness or loss is necessary. In other words,
For deposits, we will accept any dirt, tear, or repaired bill with cellophane chips, as long as it is a "true" bill and the type of bill can be determined. The first safe cassette for withdrawals is 16. It may be stored in the second safe cassette 17 for 1,000 yen banknotes or in the third safe cassette 18 for 5,000 yen/discarded/recovered banknotes; In the latter case, it is not particularly necessary.In any case, unfit notes must be avoided as banknotes to be paid out to customers.

When carrying out fitness/damage sorting control, unfit bills are abnormally conveyed bills that are extremely skinny (1) that occurred when normal banknotes are taken out, or have a pitch error exceeding the standard, and cannot be distinguished by the inspection unit 35. Similar to the rejected banknotes, the banknotes are guided to the 9M3 safe cassette 18, where they are accumulated and stored. In addition, when an exclusion red occurs, the gate 39 & is rotated to the right, and the red is accumulated and stored in the third safe cassette 18 as it is. The storage location for rejected banknotes can be switched to the rejected banknote accumulation section.

When rejected banknotes are generated in this manner, additional withdrawal is performed to replenish the designated number of banknotes.

The payout banknotes A that have been delivered to the second payout stacking section 36 are sent out all at once by the mechanism shown in FIG. Ru. Thereafter, after online communication, when the transaction is "permitted", the deposit/withdrawal lower is opened, banknote A is handed over to the customer, and the process ends.

[Effects of the Invention] As explained above, according to the present invention, when moving the banknotes in the storage section to the ejecting means side, the backup body can be moved all at once using inertia force, and the storage amount of one banknote can be reduced. An automatic teller machine equipped with a safe cassette that prevents banknotes from stopping midway even when there is high contact resistance, and enables stable accumulation and storage of banknotes and stable retrieval functions for the next transaction. This reduces the effectiveness of being able to provide
