Abstract

PURPOSE:To secure a pulling back force of a slightly projecting paper money and surely recover said paper money into an accommodation part by arranging a pushing-in plate having a high frictional member onto a surface opposed to a paper money piled by a piling means and pushing in said paper money into the accommodation part. CONSTITUTION:When a paper money A taken in by a piling roller 302 and a tapping wheel 303 is piling-accommodated, the paper money A in an accommodation part 301 is pushed under a flapper 315, and a piling space 301a is formed, and if, in this case, a paper money whose top edge part projects from a gate roller 306 exists, a taking-out detector 137 detects said projection, and a pushing-in plate 309 lowers. At this time, the high frictional member 345 of the pushing-in plate 309 contacts and presses the projected paper money, and surely pulls back the top edge of the projecting paper money from the gate roller 306 part. Further, the projecting paper money and the piled paper money A on a back-up body 310 are pressed and shifted downwardly. Thus, the paper money can be piled and accommodated in stable ways.

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, a banknote circulation type automatic transaction device has been put into practical use in which deposited banknotes are used as banknotes for withdrawal in order to improve the efficiency of operating funds.

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

Figure 31 shows the configuration of a conventional safe cassette.
Reference numeral 1 denotes a storage section, and an accumulation roller C and a beating wheel d are provided as accumulation means in correspondence with a reception opening formed on one side edge of the upper part of the storage section a). The nine deposited banknotes A are taken in and conveyed via a conveyance path (not shown) by C and beating wheel d, and are fed into the storage section a, where they are 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 o-5f and f-
) The banknotes A in the storage section a are taken out one by one by the roller g.

Further, a furano #l #i as a partitioning means is provided below the beating wheel d and r-) roller g, and holds the banknotes A stored in the storage section a to create a collection space. It has become a trap to form.

Further, a pushing plate j, which is often made of metal or glass, is provided at the upper part of the storage part a, and the lowering movement of this pushing plate j causes the flat A1. The banknotes A accumulated in the accumulation space on L are pushed into the bottom side of the flanno 41゜l, and the storage part a is provided with a back-up plate k to keep the banknotes A stored upward at all times. When the bill is pushed up, the topmost banknote A is brought into contact with the take-out roller f during the withdrawal operation.

First, when taking out banknotes from the safe cassette as described above, it is conceivable that for some reason a small exit ticket A" may have passed through the gout roller g section at the end of the takeout. If this is done, the banknote A may become jammed or cannot be taken out.

Therefore, as a way to cancel this Choro A't-
By sandwiching the banknotes in the storage section a from above and below between the push-in plate j and the back-up plate, the banknotes can be easily dispensed.
A method is used to pull it back into the exit part a.

(Problem to be Solved by the Invention) However, in the conventional push plate Jt made of a material such as gold metal or plastic that has a small coefficient of friction against banknotes A, In order to reliably pull it back to the position, when pushing down the cholo exit # between the push-in board j and the back-up board, the push-in board j and the back-up board #
I was unable to pull back the exit ticket AI due to a gap, and when I moved the push plate jt up and down to repeat the release action, the exit ticket AI was placed on the top side of the push board j. There was a problem that "" could be inserted.

The present invention has been made based on the above-mentioned circumstances, and its purpose is to prevent the return operation at the time of the occurrence of a slip-out, that is, the return of the drawn ticket to the storage section, to be performed normally, and to stabilize the bill. An object of the present invention is to provide an automatic transaction device equipped with a safe cassette that can be stored in an integrated manner and maintain a stable takeout function.

[Structure of the Invention (!l!Means for Solving the Problem) In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a system for storing deposited banknotes taken and conveyed by a conveyance path, and for dispensing the stored banknotes. In an automatic transaction device comprising a safe cassette having a function of taking out banknotes, the safe cassette includes a stacking means for stacking deposited banknotes taken and conveyed by the conveyance path, and a stacking means for stacking the banknotes stacked by the stacking means. A storage section for storing banknotes, a partition means for holding the banknotes stored in the storage section to form a stacking space, and a high friction member on a surface facing the banknotes stacked by the stacking means, and the banknotes. The present invention is configured to include a pushing plate for pushing banknotes into the storage part, and a take-out means for taking out the banknotes stored in the storage part as dispensing banknotes.

(Function) That is, in the present invention, by having the above configuration, the frictional force between the pushing plate and the cholo stepping is increased during the release operation of the first stepping, thereby eliminating slippage.

As a result, a large pullback force can be secured for each exit of the banknotes, and the banknotes can be reliably collected into the storage section, allowing stable stacking, storage and removal of banknotes.

The push plate 309 and the back-up body 310 have a 16th
As shown in the figure, long transmission holes 309* and 310m are formed extending from one end to the other end. In addition, these push plates 309 and backup 31
A banknote presence/absence detector 320 is provided between the top and bottom of the banknote. This banknote presence/absence detector 320 has a light emitting element 320a.
and a light receiving element 320b, and the light emitted from the light emitting element 320g is transmitted to the push plate 309 and the pack array 7', ?
The light receiving element 3 passes through the transmission holes 309m and 310h while being tilted obliquely with respect to the moving direction of J (7), that is, the vertical direction.
20b.

In addition, the push plate 309 has cutouts at various places outside the above-mentioned transmission hole 309*, and includes takeout rollers 304..., feed rollers 305, 305, accumulation guides 351, 351, etc.
It forms a nest with a collecting roller 302 (not shown). Further, a high Jll friction member 345° 345 is provided on a part of the lower surface facing the banknote A, and functions to press down the banknote AI during pushing. High friction member 34
5,345 is a rubber plate, for example, and the feed roller 3
05゜305 and feed roller 3Q5゜3
05 so that it does not protrude, so it will not come into contact with banknote A when it is taken in. In addition, when stacking, the stacking guides 351, 351 protrude from the high friction members 345, 345 and guide the banknotes A, so the high friction members 345,
345 does not come into contact with the stacked banknotes and cause friction.

FIG. 17 shows how the bill A is pushed in by the pushing plate 309.
``It shows a state of gradual return when the body is pulled back.

Note that when the high friction member (rubber plate) 345 is not attached to the push plate 309, the coefficient of friction between the push plate 309 and the banknote A is μB, and the coefficient of friction between the banknotes is μB, and the push plate 30
If 9 is a pushing force 1w for pushing in the banknote A against the elastic rising force of the backup 310, then the maximum force F8 for pulling out the departure A' is F1=(μS 10μB)W.

On the other hand, when the high friction member (rubber plate) 345 is attached to the push plate 309 as in the present invention, the friction coefficient between the high friction member 345 of the push plate 309 and the banknote A is assumed to be μB, and the same consideration as above is made. For example, the force F! that pulls out the exit ticket A" is the maximum F, = (μR 0 μB) W. Unless these F, , F become larger than the clamping force R at the take-in roller 304 section. , it is not possible to pull out Choro Deho A〃.The clamping force R is
Considering that part of 4, f-) roller 306, pickup roller 307, etc. are generally made of rubber, which is a high-friction member, and that the gap between take-out row 2304 and gut roller 306 is small, Depending on the degree of output, it can be a relatively large force.

In the above friction coefficient, considering that the push plate 309 is made of metal or glass, generally μB〉μB〉μ
B>O. Therefore, the pulling forces F1 and F become F,)Fl. Therefore, the push plate 30GtlC high friction member 3
By pasting 45, it is possible to increase the force for pulling out the Choro Deshū AI, and it is possible to pull it out reliably without causing slippage between the push plate 309 and the Choro exit ticket A/f when pushing.
H, four-out return operation can be performed stably.

FIG. 18 shows the configuration of a stacking horn 9 guide 350 as a stacking guide member. The integrated stopper guide 350 is provided with a hole 350& and a long hole 350h, which are connected to the pin 315a of the flapper 315 and the disc 3.
53 and is supported by fitting into the bin 3531. The flappers 315 rotate around the shaft 315b and the disc 353
is rotatable around the fulcrum 35 Jb'i. The link 352 is a link that connects the fulcrum 315@ of the flapper 4315 and the fulcrum 353e of the disk 353. Since the link 352 is configured as 0 or more, the hook A 315 is attached to the shaft 315.
When it is rotated by b, the accumulation stopper guide 350 moves in conjunction with this rotation.

Normally, rotational force is transmitted to the flapper shaft 315b by a spring 359 (see FIG. 1) built in the safe cassette 16, and the flapper 315 is moved outside the storage chamber 301 as shown in FIG. 18(a). It's out. At this time, the accumulation stopper guide 350 has its end face 350d on the extraction side 7.
It is almost the same surface as 0a 316.

18), a rotational force in the opposite direction to the rotational force by the above-mentioned spring is transmitted to the 7rats/matrix 315b from an external drive source of the safe cassette 16 (not shown), and the 7ratsupper 315 moves to the extraction side cloak 316. It shows a state in which it protrudes from the inner wall surface. 7 Ratsupa 315 is its strami 4 part 3
15d is stopped at a predetermined position υ by hitting the outer wall surface of the extraction side crawler 316.

At this time, the guide end surface 5s of the integrated stopper guide 350
The oa protrudes from the inner wall surface of the extraction source 70a 316 by a dimension C and guides the end surface of the banknote A, and its upper end 350e is nested with the extraction roller 304, so that the banknote handle can be inserted into the extraction row 2304 and r-). It is designed so that it does not get between the rollers 306.

In addition, when the stored banknote person is held down in this state, the stored banknote person... pushes up the banknote support portion 315@ of the flapper 315 by the lifting force of the back-up body 310, and the Even if no rotational force is applied, it is possible to maintain the state of protruding into the storage section 301, and it is possible to reliably press and hold the stored banknotes.

Fig. 19 shows the function of the stacking stopper guide 350, and Fig. 19 (,) shows how banknotes A are stacked;
FIG. 19(b) shows how the first
FIG. 9(C) shows a state in which the banknotes are stored in the storage section 301, and FIG. 19(d) shows a state in which the stored banknotes At- are taken out.

That is, the stacked banknotes A shown in FIG.
The take-out row 2304 and the dirt roller 3 are guided by the accumulation stopper guide 350 that protrudes
The leading edge of the banknote A does not enter the gap between the banknote A and 06, and the banknote A is aligned and stacked.

Here, when the width of the storage section 301 is the width of H1 paper banknotes L, the protrusion amount C of the stacking stopper guide 350 is C=H
Therefore, the stacked banknotes A are aligned so that the banknotes A are approximately equal to the banknotes @L, and -s@, while maintaining the gap C between the banknotes A and the inner wall surface of the take-out floor 316. and accumulate. When the banknotes A accumulated in this way are pushed in and stored, the banknotes are stored while maintaining a wide gap C between the banknotes A and the inner wall surface of the take-out floor 316, as shown in FIG. 19(C). Stored neatly.

Note that the tip of bill A, which is curled and curled and stacked with the tip floating upward, hits the stacking tip # guide 350 as shown in FIG. Without entering this gap, it falls along the collection stack guide 350 and is collected horizontally on the top of the flan/4315.315. Therefore, the banknotes A1 are stacked while being correctly aligned without interfering with the progress and stacking of the next banknote A1.

Further, since the banknote stopper guide 350 operates in conjunction with the flapper 315, when a stacked state is formed by the flapper 315 during stacking, the stacking stop/f guide 350 is always nested with the take-out roller 304, and
It is possible to arrange banknotes on a business trip, and highly reliable stacking can be achieved without any malfunctions.

The rear end side of the stored banknotes A is in contact with the inner wall surface of the entrance floor 318 of the storage section 301, and when the banknotes A move 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 A stored in the misaligned state, and the rate of increase as the amount of banknotes A increases is also approximately constant. Therefore, when taking out the banknotes A stored in this way, the frictional resistance that the banknotes A receives from the inner wall of the storage section 301 is very small, as shown in FIG. By raising the bill A with an appropriate pack-up force in order to maintain a stable size, it is possible to keep the pressing force between the take-out row 2304 and the bill person almost constant. Also, banknote A
Even when there are a large number of banknotes A, the stored banknotes can generate the same pressing force in almost the same condition as when the banknotes are set by the clerk, so even a large number of banknotes A can be taken out stably. .

Also, during the stacking shown in FIG.
5 is in a locked state and does not move, so the integrated stopper guide 350 does not move.
There is no chance that the stacking stopper guide SSO will become unnested during stacking.

Furthermore, after the storage operation shown in FIG. 19(c) is completed, the banknote A is surely pushed up by the back-up body 310, and there is no possibility that a gap will be created between the banknote A and the seven flaps 315, 315. Also, there is no possibility that banknotes will be inserted into the gap at the time of the next deposit transaction, resulting in unaccumulated banknotes.

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

In addition, during the withdrawal preparation operation, when moving the banknotes A in the storage section 301 to the take-out row 2304 side, the back-up body 310 is temporarily stopped and only the push plate 309 is raised.
The pressure on the banknote on the back-up body 310 is released, and the banknote A is applied only by the urging force of the spring 370 (see FIG.
The structure is such that 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 banknotes A are brought into contact with the take-out roller 304 without stopping midway.

Therefore, it is possible to prevent troubles such as failure to take out, gaps, or taking out in a negative state, and to maintain a stable taking out function.

In addition, when withdrawing money, as shown in FIG. 19(d), the stacking stopper guide 350 must be retracted from the take-out roller 304 so that it does not get in the way of the banknotes A that are being unnested and taken out. Take-out roller 304 and r-troller 30
It is taken out through the gap between 6 and 6.

FIG. 20A shows the appearance of the safe cassette 16 and the flapper operating mechanism 360.
4 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 conveying section 30.

Additionally, a flat A is provided on one side of the outer wall surface of the safe cassette 16.
7 flapper operating levers 370, 370 are arranged integrally with the shafts 315b, 315b of 315, 315, and these flapper operating levers 370°j 70t are rotated by a flapper operating mechanism 360 provided on the device main body 2 side. K is configured to operate the flapper 9315.315.

As shown in FIGS. 20A and 20B, the flapper operating mechanism 360 drives guide rollers 371 and 371 attached to the free ends of the seven flapper operating levers 310 and 370. The structure is such that it is pushed up by the top surface. The drive plate 372 includes a plurality of rollers 374 attached to the frame 373 of the device main body 2.
The vertical plate portion 372b is guided by the vertical plate portion 372b to be movable up and down. A long hole 375 is formed in the vertical plate portion 372b, and a guide roller 377 attached to the free end of the drive plate operating lever 376 is guided by the vertical plate portion 372b. It is in an engaged state. Furthermore, a plunger solenoid 378 is connected to the pivot end side of the drive plate operating lever 376.

When the plunger solenoid 378 is in the "off" state, the drive grate 372 is
is not raised to rotate the flapper operating levers 370, 370, and the flapper 315°315 is open (
vertical state). Also, plunger solenoid 378
is in the "on" state, the drive plate 372 rises and the flapper operating lever 370 is moved as shown in FIG. 20B.
By rotating the lever 370, the flappers 315, 315 are in a closed state (horizontal state).

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

First, the push plate moving mechanism 379 will be explained.

In the figure, reference numeral 308 denotes a slide shaft provided vertically, and a push plate stay 367 is attached to this slide shaft 308 via a near mail bearing 381 so as to be vertically movable. A push plate 309 is rotatably attached to the tip side of the push plate stay 367 via a fitting 382.

The base end side of the pushing plate 362 is connected to an endless timing belt 391 which is stretched through a timing pulley 389 and an idle pulley 390. The timing pulley 389 is integrally provided with a driven gear 392 and a spring reversing pulley 393.
92 meshes with a drive gear 395 attached to a drive shaft of a pushing plate drive pulse motor 394 provided on the device main body 2 side. Further, one end of a push plate return spring 396 is connected to the base end of the push plate stay 367, so that the push plate 309 is constantly urged upward.

The other end of the push plate return spring 396 is wound around the spring reversing pulley 393 and bent downward, and is fixed to a spring retaining pin 397 provided near the idle pulley 390.

By driving the pushing plate driving pulse motor 394, the pushing plate 309 is lowered against the biasing force of the pushing plate return spring 396, and the banknote A is pushed into the storage section 301. By setting it in the inactive state, the pushing plate 309
It is configured to return to the upper home position with a biasing force of 96.

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 bearing 381 so as to be vertically movable. The backup body 310 is attached to the distal end side of the backup body stay 368 via a fitting 369f so as to be rotatable in two directions (three dimensions) so as to uniformly press the banknotes against the take-out roller 304. One end of the back-up 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 an electromagnetic brake 40 for controlling the back-up body as a back-up body holding means provided on the device main body 2 side.
K so as to mesh with a gear 406 attached to the output shaft of No. 5. Further, one end of a backup body recovery spring 407 is connected to the base end of the backup body stay 368, so that the backup body 310 is always urged upward. The other end of the Bakkuag body return spring 407 is a spring reversal googly 404
The spring hanging bottle 408 is wrapped around and folded downward.
is fixed.

Then, the back-up body 310 descends against the biasing force of the back-up body return spring 407 as the push-in plate 309 pushes, and by turning on the electromagnetic brake 405, the /4 pull-up body 310 is moved by the spring 407. It can be held in that position against the urging force of. 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.
(only the negative part is shown) are arranged to detect the positions of the push plate 309 and the i4 pickup body 310.

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

During standby, the flappers 315, 315 are held in a closed state protruding into the storage section 301, as shown in FIG. is placed, and this banknote A is elastically pressed by a back-up body 310 from below. Therefore, when stacking banknotes A, the stacking roller 30
2 and the beating wheel 303, the stacking state is regulated by the stacking stopper guide 350, and the banknotes A are suddenly and temporarily stacked in the stacking space 301 above the flannel A315, 315 [Fig. b) see].

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
The banknote A of a is pushed up together with the flappers 315, 315 and the back-up body 310 and moved to a specified storage position [FIG. 22 (Step 1)].

After this, in this state, the backup body moving mechanism 38
The electromagnetic brake 4os2 of 0 is turned on to fix the backup body 310 [FIG. 21 (C)] [FIG. 22 (Step 2)]. Here, a check for the remaining banknotes A in the accumulation space 301* is performed by the banknote presence/absence detector 320.
[Fig. 22 (Step 3)] If no residue is detected, leave the backup body 310t in the fixed state and raise only the push plate 309 and move the
Stop at position 5 [Figure 22 (Step 4)]. After this, by turning on the solenoid 378, the furano 43
15.315 is closed [Fig. 22(d)) (Second
2 (Step 5)], then in this state, by turning off the electromagnetic brake 405 as the back-up body holding means, the back-up body 310 and the banknote A are raised [FIG. 21 (e) ].

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

In addition, the push plate 309f is raised and returned to the standby position [Fig. 21(f)] (Fig. 22 (Stella f7)).

On the other hand, in FIG. 22 (Stella 7'3), if residual bills are detected and the pick-up bill presence/absence detector 320 is "dark", the push-in board is It is raised 309ft and returned to the standby position [Figure 22 (Step 8)].

After that, the electromagnetic brake 404 is turned off to raise the backup body 310 [Fig. 22 (Step 9)].
, the above-described accumulation and storage process is repeated again.

On the other hand, FIG. 23 shows the operation when taking out banknotes A.

This will be explained with reference to FIG. From the standby state shown in FIG. 23(a), the pushing plate 309 descends and the seven latches 315, 315 open, the accumulation stopper guide SSO retreats 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)
]. After this, under this condition, the electromagnetic brake 404'f
t "ON" to fix the back-up body 310 [Fig. 24 (Stella 7° 2)]. After that, only the push plate 309 is raised and returned to the standby position [Fig. 23(c)] [
FIG. 24 (Step 3)]. In this state, the electromagnetic brake 404 is turned off to raise the banknote A and return it to the standby position.
4 and feed roller 305 [Fig. 23 (
d) ) Figure 24 (Stella f4)].

In this state, the operation of the take-out roller 304 and the feed roller 305 causes the take-out roller 304 to move toward the mu surface 30.
4&, and when a predetermined number of bills have been taken out, the taking-in timing detection switch 323
In response to the signal, the take-out row 2304 is stopped in a state where the rubber surface 304m is kept in a position where the rubber surface 304m is exposed to the transport path surface of the banknotes A and does not come into contact with the banknotes A remaining in the storage section 301.
Figure 3 (・)].

By the way, since the banknote A is taken out only when the comb surface 304a of the takeout roller 304 comes into contact with the banknote A, the leading edges of the banknotes A other than the banknote person being taken out are on the takeout side floor of the storage section 301. However, due to the alignment of the person taking out the banknotes and the use of the multi-sheet ty troller 306, the leading edge of the banknote A is normally in the f- ) The leading edge of the bill A may have reached the position of the pickup roller 307 because the bill A has not been guided to the position of the roller 306 or due to some reason the timing of take-out is shifted.

However, when banknotes A are stored in a stack, as shown in Fig. 21 (
e) As shown in K, push the banknote A in the storage section 301 below the flapper 315, 315,
Since the accumulation space 3011 must be formed above the banknote 315, if there is a banknote A whose leading edge protrudes from the withdrawal side 70a 316 (hereinafter referred to as a banknote AI), the problem arises. (b) When the exit AI is pressed by the push-in plate 309, its leading edge may break, making it impossible to take out the exit ticket A'. It is necessary to pull it back to the position where .

Therefore, if the leading edge of the banknote A protrudes to the pickup roller 307 when a predetermined number of banknotes have been taken out one by one, this is detected by the removal detector 317. The banknote A based on
The ticket is taken out as a reject ticket and stored in the reject storage.

Next, we will explain the operation when the leading edge of banknote A has "Te1 Hideho AI" protruding in the f-)low') 306 part, and the tab and removal detector 317 are "bright". Second
This will be explained with reference to FIGS. 5 and 26.

First, the push plate 309 is lowered. Konoto-kushimi board 309
The high-friction member 345 makes contact with the AIK and reliably pulls it back from the dirt roller 306 while pressing it.
Fig. 25 (,)) [Fig. 26 (Stella f1)]. Furthermore, the issued coins A and banknotes A accumulated on the back-up body 310 are pressed by the pushing plate 309 to move them downward together with the back-up body 310.

Then, at the point where it has moved to a certain position, the electromagnetic brake 40
Turn on 4 to fix the back-up body 31°.
Figure 6 (Step 2)], the push plate 309 in this state
Raise the chisel and return it to the standby position [Figure 25 (b)]
C Fig. 26 (Step 3)].

In response to this, the suppression of the banknotes AK 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 back-up body 310 has been released, the banknotes AI located at the topmost layer are freely moved and aligned by friction with the take-out floor 316.

Here, the push plate 309 is lowered again and pushed toward the banknote AiT (FIG. 26 (step 5)), and then, in this state, the electromagnetic brake 404 is turned on to fix the back-up body 310. [Figure 26 (Stella 766). Here, the remaining banknotes in the upper accumulation space 301a are detected by the banknote detector 320 [FIG. 26 (Step 7)], and if the banknote presence/absence detector 320 is "dark", the banknote is dispensed. Due to insufficient alignment of AN, back-up body 31
0 is fixed, the push plate 309f is returned to the standby position [FIG. 26 (Step 8)], and then the electromagnetic brake 4o42 is turned off to raise the pack-up body 310 as described above. Repeat the operation [Figure 26 (Stella f9)]. In addition, if the bill presence/absence detector 320 is "bright" in FIG. 26 (step 7), it means that the alignment of the exit ticket AI has been completed, and the pushing plate 309 is moved with the back-up body 310 fixed. Fully raise only Furano/43
Stop at position 15,315 [Figure 26 (Step 10)]. After this, the flapper 315
, 315 [FIG. 26(d)] [FIG. 26 (Step 11): l. Next, in this state, the electromagnetic brake 404 is turned OFF to raise the backup body 310 and the banknote A, The banknote A is transferred to these flappers 315, 31.
5 (FIG. 25(e)) (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, when all the banknotes A in the storage section 301 are taken out, the takeout detector 317 remains "bright" for a certain period of time as shown in FIG. In response, the banknote presence/absence detector 320 is turned on, and the back-up body 310 is pressed by the pusher plate 309 and lowered together with the pusher plate 309 (FIG. 27). And, ・9 backup body 310 is Furano'315,3
15, these flappers 315, 315 are closed by turning on the solenoid 378 of the flapper operating mechanism 360, and these flappers 315, 315 are closed.
The PATSUKUATSU f310 is locked, and the push plate 30 is
9 rises and returns to the standby position [Fig. 27 (C)].

At this time, the emitted light from the banknote presence/absence detector 320 passes through the transmission hole 309.
*, 309b, but this emitted light passes through the push plate 3
09 and the back-up body 310, the emitted light is relatively directed from one end side of the transmitted light 309 & 1310m as the pushing plate 309 and the back-up body 310 move. The state is such that the back-up body 310 is in a state of being sequentially shifted to the other end side 9, so that empty detection is possible for a wide range S of the upper surface of the backup body 310 (see FIG. 27(a)).
Even if a folded ticket or an unrolled banknote A remains on top of the paper, 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 451 controls the deposit/withdrawal mechanism 12 according to signals from the main control section 450 and signals from the inspection control section 455.

Next, the operation in such a configuration will be explained. For example, first, a customer (customer) inserts a card into the card insertion slot 5 after seeing the operation guide ``Please insert your card or passbook'' displayed on the information display section (CRT display section) 10. Then, the data on the magnetic stripe of the card is read by a reading section (not shown) and supplied to the main control section 450. Thereby, the main control unit 450 checks the validity of the card. Then, if the card is valid, the main control unit 450 causes the guidance display unit 10 to display an operation guide saying "Please enter your password." Then, when the customer inputs the PIN number using the operation button 8, the main control unit 450 inputs the PIN number read from the card and the operation input button 8, and then checks whether the PIN number matches or is related to the next PIN number. . If they match, or if the relationship satisfies predefined rules, the main control unit 450 displays the guidance display unit 10 to “Please select a transaction type,” and also displays “Deposit, Withdrawal, Transfer , "Balance Inquiry" selection button instructions.

When a transaction item is selected, when the button 8 is pressed to perform an operation corresponding to a deposit, the main control section 450 enters the deposit acceptance state and outputs a deposit instruction to the deposit/withdrawal mechanism 12. As a result, the deposit/withdrawal mechanism 12 opens the shutter 115 of the deposit/withdrawal lower.Then, the customer inserts the banknote bundle A in a three-dimensional state into the stacking section 154, which serves as a bill receiving section, with mixed denominations (front and back), and then closes the shutter. When the shutter 115 is closed, a shutter close detector 119 detects that the shutter 115 is closed.

Next, the floor drive motor 111 rotates at high speed, and in response, the first floor 107 at the bottom of the stacking section 154 vibrates up and down, and the banknotes A are aligned by this vibration. At this time,
When the detector 157 detects a failure to accumulate banknotes A,
The main control unit 450 opens the shutter 115 and guides the display unit 10.
``Please insert the banknotes correctly and close the door.'' When the shutter 115 is closed, the alignment operation is performed again, and the main control unit 4
50 determines that the banknotes A have been correctly deposited into the stacking unit 154, the banknotes A are taken in one by one via the take-in roller 103 starting from the frontmost one. This taken-in banknote A is conveyed via the taking-in conveyance path 38& (see FIG. 3). At this time, the bill A is detected by the bill passing detector 40mK, and the detection signal is sent to the main control unit 450.
is counting the number of sheets taken in. In addition, the banknote A is
Detection of "short length", "longitudinal length", "magnetic gloss turn matching", "color separation of transmitted light", "division matching of minute parts using reflected light", etc. is performed when passing through the In particular, "discrimination of certificates", "discrimination of authenticity", "discrimination of front and back sides", and "discrimination of new/old certificates" are performed, and the results are supplied to the main control section 450. As a result, the main control unit 45
0 counts the inspection results with a counter (not shown). However, if the main control unit 4501-1 determines the authenticity of the banknote as "false" and the banknote A cannot be recognized as a valid banknote due to overlapping, extremely skewed or damaged banknotes, the deposit/withdrawal will be processed. A rejection signal is output to the mechanism 12. In this case, when the tip of the bill reaches the bill passing detector 40f, the third sorting gate 39c moves leftward to the fourth sorting dart 39d.
is rotated to the left. Then, the banknote A is accumulated in the withdrawal accumulation section 36.

On the other hand, it is determined as "true" in the authenticity discrimination, and "true" in the front/back discrimination.
In the case of a bill that is determined to be "back", the main desk section 450 outputs a signal to the deposit/withdrawal mechanism 12.

As a result, the banknote A is sorted into the dart 39e.

39d, and are accumulated in the deposit-time accumulation section 37 via the left conveyance path. In addition, banknotes A that are determined to be "true" in the above-mentioned authenticity determination and "front" in the front/back determination are sorted by the sorting dart 39C, and are deposited through the right conveyance path.
The time is accumulated in the time accumulation section 37.

Further, when the inspection result is an old note, the deposit/withdrawal mechanism J2 turns on the plunger solenoid 236, and as shown in FIG.
The stacking guide 234 moves to the position shown by the two-dot chain line to widen the stacking width. - 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 roller 103 is stopped and the taking-in process is ended.

Next, when the rejected banknotes A are accumulated in the dispensing time stacking section 36, an arm (not shown) moves downward and the rejected banknotes A are sandwiched between the conveyor bells 180 and 181. , - are collectively conveyed to the stacking section 154 [Fig. 11 (
See a)]. 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, after all the inserted banknotes A are accumulated, they are counted and verified. l) The number of 10,000 yen banknotes, the number of egg yen banknotes and the number of 1,000 yen banknotes among the genuine notes judged by the inspection unit 35 and the number of banknotes determined by the inspection unit 35 and the passage detector on the conveyance path to the accumulation unit 37 The number of sheets counted by 401.40b is checked by the main control unit 450, and counting is guaranteed by double checking.

After the count is verified by this method, the main control unit 45
0 displays the number of tickets and the total amount deposited on the information display section 10 of the operation panel section 3, and asks the customer to confirm the amount inserted and the number of tickets deposited.'f! : Rinakasu. Customer confirmed? When the button is pressed, the banknotes A in the deposit-time stacking section 37 are conveyed to the stacking section 154 of the bill loading/unloading device 15 when the banknotes are accepted as "acceptable" after online communication. 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. For this reason, the pedestal 22
The banknotes A that were stacked on top of 0 are timing paper k)
The stacking section 230 is sandwiched between the 2 o 5 and the conveyor belt 214.
[See Fig. 13(c)].

Next, in the banknote loading/unloading device 15, the backup 1
The 02 and front/4 channel 101 move to the opposite side of the take-in roller 103, the movable part 145 of the backup 102 opens outward, and the banknotes A conveyed from the deposit-time accumulation section 37 through the discharge roller 127 are transferred. It is accumulated in the receiving accumulation section 154.

Further, the taking-in roller 103 is rotated and the banknotes A are taken in one by one. This taken-in nine banknotes A are taken in by the taking-in conveyance path 38*
It is transported via f. At this time, the banknote passing detector 40h detects the number of banknotes taken in, and the main control unit 450 counts the number of banknotes taken in based on the detection signal. In addition, when the banknote A passes through the inspection section 35, the "short side length"
Detection of "longitudinal length", "magnetic/f-turn matching", "color separation of transmitted light", "decomposition matching of fine parts by reflected light", etc. is carried out, and "roll weight determination"
, “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, the main control unit 450 controls the deposit/withdrawal mechanism 12 when the banknote A is found to be "false" in the authenticity determination, the banknote is stamped, the banknote is extremely skewed, or the banknote is damaged and cannot be recognized as a correct banknote. Outputs an exclusion signal to

As a result, the tip of the bill suction A is connected to the bill passing detector 40.
When j is reached, the seventh root molecule -) 39 g is rotated to the left. Then, that banknote A is egg yen/exclusion ticket/
The collected banknotes are accumulated in the collected banknote storage section 22.

On the other hand, if the yen bill AO is determined to be “true” in the authenticity determination, the main control unit 450 outputs the signal to the deposit/withdrawal mechanism 12 . As a result, the banknotes A are divided into losses by the sorting dart 39g and accumulated in the third safe cassette 18. At this time, in the safe cassette 18, the Furano sound is 315, 315.
is held in a closed state protruding into the storage section 22 (30), and a collection space 301a is formed above the flappers 315, 315.
03 and is well integrated via the integration stopper 350.

On the other hand, in the case of 1,000 yen banknotes and 10,000 yen banknotes, the operation is similar, and the first. They are accumulated in the accumulation space 301a of the second safe cassette 16°17. During the above-described stacking operation, the main control unit 450 counts the number of stacked yen bills, thousand yen bills, and ten thousand yen bills using a counter (not shown) based on the detection signals of 40rn and 40o sent to the passage detector 40.

On the other hand, when the banknote presence detector 151 detects that there are no banknotes in the stacking section 154, the rotation of the retrieval drive motor 104 is stopped and the retrieval process is ended.

When the taking in is completed, the banknote storage operation shown in FIG. 22 is carried out, and the taken banknotes A are retained by the flappers 315 and 315 and held in a stacked state under the flappers 315 (FIG. 21(f)).

Next, when selecting a stock to trade, when the operation button 8 corresponding to withdrawal is pressed, the main control unit 450 displays a guide message saying, "Press the button for the amount and finally press the button for yen." It is displayed on the display unit 10. Next, the customer follows the instructions and inserts the amount using Gotan 8. By inputting this amount, the main control section 450 causes the guidance display section 10 to display the guidance text "If the amount is correct, please press the confirmation button or, if you wish to change the exchange button, press the correction button." When this button is pressed, the main control unit 450 displays "Communication in progress, please wait for a while."
The guidance display section 10 displays the guidance characters. 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 banknotes A corresponding to the above amount into the first .
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 (IL), the second

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 the main control unit 450 counts the number of banknotes taken out based on the detection signal. The banknote A taken out from the second safe cassette 17 for 9,000 yen is detected by the banknote passage detector 401.
Detection of the removal is performed, and the main control unit 450 counts the number of sheets taken out based on the detection signal. (9) When the removed bill A passes through the inspection section 35, "bill type discrimination" and the like are performed, and the results are supplied to the main control section 450.

Thereby, the main control unit 450 counts the inspection results using a counter (not shown).

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

Then, when the number of bills taken out by the bill passing detectors 40n and 40t reaches the set number, the main control unit 450 controls the corresponding first . 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. Tsumashi,
For deposits, we will accept any dirt, tear, or repaired bill with cellophane chips, as long as it is a ``true'' bill and can be determined to be a genuine bill. These are stored in a first safe cassette 16 for 10,000 yen, a second safe cassette 17 for 1,000 yen, or in a third safe cassette 18 for yen/excluded/collected banknotes for withdrawal. However, in the former case, it is necessary to determine the fitness of the money at the time of withdrawal, and 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 with mold marks that occur when normal banknotes are taken out, significant skew, and pitch head errors that exceed the standard, and are judged to be unidentifiable by the inspection unit 35. Similar to the rejected banknotes, the banknotes are guided to the third safe cassette 18, where they are accumulated and stored. In addition, if an exclusion ticket occurs, will it be sorted? -) J9at- Rotate to the right, and as it is, the third safe cassette 1gVC is accumulated and stored.

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.

Thus, the payout banknotes A accumulated in the payout-time accumulation section 36 are sent out all at once by the mechanism shown in FIG.
The money is accumulated in the accumulation section 154 facing the deposit/withdrawal lower. 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 and as follows, according to the present invention, there is provided a safe cassette that can normally perform the return operation when a slippage occurs, can stably accumulate and store banknotes, and can maintain a stable takeout function. This has the advantage of being able to provide automatic transaction equipment.
