In particular, when a machine is shared by two staff members in counter operations at banks, etc., the deposit and withdrawal routes that connect the deposit and withdrawal ports of the machine and the internal safe are common. During the transaction processing used by one of the agents, this −
The next transaction cannot be made until the transaction is completed, which results in a waiting time for the transaction, which causes congestion during busy hours when customers are concentrated. Therefore, it was desired to efficiently process deposits and withdrawals in a short period of time and to provide prompt customer service.

(c) Purpose of the Invention The present invention provides a banknote deposit/withdrawal processing device that enables high-speed parallel transactions of deposits and withdrawals without transaction waiting time when handling banknote withdrawals, and enables prompt customer service. purpose.

(d) Structure of the Invention The present invention is a banknote deposit/withdrawal processing device that discriminates deposited banknotes in a discrimination section, stores them in an internal denomination-specific safe, and dispenses the banknotes from the denomination-specific safe. At the top, there is a deposit/withdrawal transport processing group comprising a bill deposit slot for accepting the deposit and return of bills, a bill withdrawal port for withdrawing bills, and a store section for temporarily storing deposited bills. A group of safes each having a safe for each denomination that is allowed to be stored and dispensed from the deposit/withdrawal transport processing group for circulation use is installed at the lower part thereof, and a deposit route connecting the banknote deposit group and the banknote deposit slot. , the banknote deposit/withdrawal processing device is characterized in that a banknote deposit/withdrawal processing device is provided with an independent withdrawal route connecting the group of safes and the banknote withdrawal port.

(e) Effects of the Invention According to the present invention, both the independently provided deposit route and withdrawal route are used independently according to each transaction to perform deposit transactions and withdrawal transactions. In addition, if a deposit transaction and a withdrawal transaction overlap, the deposited banknotes are temporarily stored in the storage section of the transport system for the deposit processing, and in parallel, the banknotes to be withdrawn are fed out from the safe for each denomination and withdrawn. Process gold.

(f) Effects of the Invention Therefore, even in cases where deposit and withdrawal transactions overlap, both transactions can be performed simultaneously and in parallel.

Therefore, even during busy periods, we can respond quickly with high processing capacity that avoids transaction waiting times.
It is possible to accurately eliminate crowding of users.

In addition, we aim to improve fund management efficiency by installing safes for each denomination in a circulating manner for deposits and withdrawals, and because the deposit and withdrawal routes connected to these are configured independently, there is no possibility of jams, etc. Even if there is, only one transport route will stop,
The other conveyance path can be used as it is by being driven independently, and the operating rate of the device can be reliably improved.

Furthermore, since the deposit/withdrawal processing group and the safe group are separated into upper and lower sections, the internal mechanism can be simplified, and the area where jams, etc. occur can be identified on the upper side, making management easier.

(g) Examples of the invention An embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail below based on the drawings.

The drawing shows a banknote deposit/withdrawal processing device which is shared by two staff members and is held on both sides. In FIGS. A deposit/withdrawal conveyance processing group 13 is provided for holding and conveying banknotes 12, and a cartridge group 14 for storing and feeding banknotes 12 is provided at the bottom, so that the upper and lower parts of the main body 11 of the apparatus are separated into a conveyance system and a storage system. are doing.

A sixth Wi transfer path L6 is connected to the exit side of the deposit return pool section 21, which is connected to the deposit port 15 via one of the seventh transfer paths L7 branched from this, and these transfer paths L6. The banknotes 12, which have been redeemed once, are conveyed all at once to the original deposit slot 15 side via L7. Also, via the other branched eighth transport path L8,
It is connected to the first conveyance path L1 described above for conveyance processing in a circulation manner.

The above-mentioned third conveyance path L3 includes a bill reversing mechanism 22.
is connected, which is disposed at a rear position of the above-mentioned discriminating section 19, and only when the discriminating section 19 determines that the reverse side of the banknote is being conveyed, the reverse side banknote is reversed by the above-mentioned reversing mechanism 22. , the banknotes are transported to the lower cartridge group 14 with their front and back sides aligned. Further, the banknotes facing the front side are transferred from the third conveyance path 3 to the lower cartridge group 14 via the ninth conveyance path L9 in the front side conveyance state.
The 10th to 13th transport paths 110 to L13 for storage are connected in succession via the front-back reversing mechanism 22 and the 9th transport path L9, and the objects are guided to these transport paths LIO to L13. The deposited banknotes are transferred to the first to fourth
It is configured to be stored and collected in cartridges 01 to C4.

83 on this cartridge group 14 side, the above-mentioned 10W
A first cartridge C1 is disposed opposite to the first transport route 110, and banknotes transported from this tenth transport route LIO,
For example, a 5,000 yen bill is stored in this first cartridge C1.

Similarly, at a position corresponding to the eleventh conveyance path L11,
A second cartridge C2 for storing 1,000 yen bills is installed oppositely, and the same goes for No. 1211g! At a position corresponding to the feeding path L12, a third cartridge C3 for accommodating a million-yen hole is provided oppositely,
At a position corresponding to the thirteenth conveyance path L13, a fourth cartridge C4 for collecting dispensing error banknotes, defective banknotes, etc. is installed oppositely, and the banknotes conveyed from each of the conveyance paths L10 to L13 are collected in the respective corresponding positions. First to fourth cartridges C1 to C4
It is configured to be stored and processed.

In addition, when dispensing from each cartridge C1 to C4, in addition to the dispensing operation, the banknotes 12 in each cartridge C1 to C4 are It is configured to be delivered to the respective corresponding transport paths 110 to L13.

The 1412nd transport path LM is connected to the 13th transport path L13 on the downstream side of the cartridge, and connected to the dispensing port 16 via one of the 15th transport paths L15 branched from this, and branched to the other side. It is connected in a circulation manner to the above-mentioned first conveyance path L1 via the 16th conveyance path 11B, and is circulated during distribution.

In addition, a double-dispensing detector 29 is installed on the downstream side of the twelfth conveyance path 1.12, and detects the dispensing of two coins at the time of dispensing.
When two sheets are detected to be taken out, they are collected in the fourth cartridge C4.

At each branch of the above-mentioned transport routes 1 to 116, a distribution plate 30 and a transport guide member (not shown) are arranged.
These distributions are based on the function of the board 30... and the deposit slot 15.
From→L1→19→L2→L3→L4→20-+L5→
L6 → L8 → L1 → 19 → L2 → Shi3 → L9 (22
)→110-L13→C1 to C4.

Similarly, the distribution of the plate 30... is based on the action, and from each cartridge C1 to C4 → LIO → L11 → L12 →
The dispensing path 18 is a transport system that passes through a series of codes L13→L14→L15→dispensing port 16.

In this case, the deposit route 17 corresponding to the deposit port 15 and the withdrawal route 18 corresponding to the withdrawal port 16 are separated and have independent transport routes, so that deposit transactions and withdrawal transactions are Of course, it is possible to perform continuous processing, but when these two transactions overlap, it is possible to allow both transaction operations at the same time and perform parallel processing, and even if a jam occurs, one side's conveyance route can be processed in parallel. By simply stopping the transport path, the other transport path can be used as is, and the operating rate of the apparatus can be improved.

In addition, by separating the deposit/withdrawal processing group 13 of the transport system and the cartridge group 14 of the storage system into upper and lower sections, mutual interference can be avoided and the internal mechanism can be simplified.
The area where the jam occurs is identified on the upper side, making it easier to manage.

The first cartridge C1 mentioned above is set to store 5,000 yen bills, the second cartridge C2 is set to store 1,000 yen bills, the third cartridge C3 is set to store 10,000 yen bills, and the fourth cartridge C4 is set to store 1,000 yen bills. The 4th cartridge C4, which is exclusively used for loading and unloading, is set to be used for loading and unloading various banknotes such as 1,000 yen bills, 5,000 yen bills, and 10,000 yen bills. At the time of setting J3 and at the time of removal after operation, all banknotes of different denominations are stored in this fourth cartridge C4 at once, and this one cartridge C4
It can be attached and detached via.

This makes effective use of one cartridge, eliminates the work of attaching and detaching each cartridge, improves handling and management of banknotes, and reduces staff work.

FIG. 3 shows a control circuit block diagram of the banknote deposit/withdrawal processing device, in which the CPtJ'31 controls each circuit device according to a program stored in the ROM32, and stores the controlled input/output data in the RAM33.

The main motor 34 drives and controls each conveyance path based on input information from the CPU 31, and the sensor S is disposed in front of each of the cartridges C1 to C4 to manage the state in which banknotes 12 are taken in and taken out.

Next, the processing operation when the banknote deposit/withdrawal processing device is used with two staff members sandwiching it from both sides will be explained with reference to the flowchart of FIG. 4.

In the first step 41, when the bill 12 is inserted into the deposit slot 15 by the operation of one of the staff members, the deposit bill is transferred from the deposit slot 15 through the deposit path of →L1→19→L2→L3→L4. 17, and if there are banknotes that are poorly judged by the discrimination section 19, they are pooled in the deposit return pool section 21, and then returned all at once to the deposit slot 15, where they are re-discriminated. to process the deposit. If the deposit is canceled during this transaction, the banknotes temporarily stored in the store section 20 are returned to the deposit slot 15 all at once.

On the other hand, in a second step 42, it is determined that the banknote is normal;
If the deposit is confirmed without being canceled, the deposited banknotes are dispensed from the store 20 in the third step 43, and the dispensed banknotes are transferred in the fourth step 44 from L5→L6→L8→L1→19→
L2 → L3 → L9 (22) → L10 → L11 → [-
The coins are stored in cartridges 01 to C3 for each denomination via the storage path 12→L13. At this time, if there are banknotes that have been judged incorrectly, they are collected by the fourth cartridge C4 for collection. Then, in a fifth step 45, this storage operation is continued until the storage processing operation is completed, and when the storage processing operation is completed, the next deposit or withdrawal transaction is permitted.

By the way, when a withdrawal transaction signal is input, in a sixth step 46, it is confirmed that the banknotes deposited last time are not being stored, and in a seventh step 47, banknotes of a specific denomination are removed from a predetermined cartridge. Pay out, L10 → L11 → L12 → L13 → L
The money is withdrawn to the withdrawal port 16 via the withdrawal route 18 from 14 to L15.

In this case, even if the deposit transaction by one clerk and the withdrawal transaction by the other clerk overlap, the deposit processing and withdrawal processing are separated into two separate transaction functions. Therefore, it is possible to perform parallel processing operations by individually performing deposit transactions and withdrawal transactions.

FIG. 5 shows a flowchart of another processing operation of the present invention, and the 11th to 14th steps 51 to 54 are the steps 51 to 54 described above.
The same deposit processing as in the fourth steps 41 to 44 is carried out, and at this time, during the storing operation from the store section 20 to the cartridge, in the fifteenth step 55, for example, a signal for the next withdrawal transaction is received. Then, in the 16th step 56, the storing operation from the store section 20 to the cartridge is temporarily suspended to give priority to the next withdrawal transaction, and if there is no next transaction, then in the 17th step 57 , all the banknotes temporarily stored in the store section 20 are stored in each cartridge C1 to C of each denomination until the end.
4. Store and operate.

On the other hand, if a withdrawal transaction signal is input, the withdrawal processing operation similar to the above-mentioned sixth and seventh steps 46 and 47 is performed in the first, eighth, and nineteenth steps 58 and 59.

As mentioned above, even if deposits and withdrawals overlap, both transactions can be done in parallel, reducing transaction waiting time even during busy periods. It has high processing power and can be dealt with quickly.

In addition, we have a circulating system for depositing and withdrawing money into cartridges for each denomination type to improve fund management efficiency, and since the deposit route and withdrawal route connected to this cartridge are configured independently, even if a jam occurs, etc. , only one transport path stops,
The other conveyance path can be used as it is by being driven independently, and the operating rate of the device can be reliably improved.

Furthermore, since the deposit/withdrawal transport processing group and the cartridge group are separated into upper and lower sections, the internal mechanism can be simplified, and the area where jams occur can be identified on the upper side, making management easier.

In the correspondence between this invention and the configuration of the above-mentioned embodiment, the banknote deposit/withdrawal processing device of this invention corresponds to the device main body 11 of the embodiment, and similarly, the safe group corresponds to the cartridge group 14. However, the banknote deposit port corresponds to the deposit port 15, the banknote withdrawal port corresponds to the deposit port 16, and the safe corresponds to the first to fourth cartridges C1 to C4. The present invention is not limited to the configuration of the embodiment.
