If it is not empty, it is checked whether 100 bills have been taken out from the deposit box 18 (ST48), and when 100 bills have been taken out, the taking out operation is temporarily stopped. The banknotes A2 and the backup 310b accumulated in the accumulation section 301b of the thousand yen warehouse 17 are pushed down by the push plate 309b to below the flappers 315b, 315b. At this time, the flapper 315b. 315b is hooked on the banknote A2 under the push plate 309b, and is rotated downward by the pushing force of the push plate 309b. The banknote A2 then slips under the flapper 315b. The banknote A2 is completely under the flapper 315b.
When it sinks in, the pressing force on the flappers 315b, 315b disappears, and the flappers 315b, 315b return to their original states. Thereafter, the pushing plate 309b returns to the top, and the backup 310b also attempts to return to the top. and,
The storage operation ends with the banknote A2 being sandwiched between the backup 310b and the flappers 315b, 315b (
ST49). Then, it is confirmed whether or not the safe deposit box 18 is empty, and if it is not empty, the operation of taking out the banknote A2 from the safe deposit box 18 is restarted, and by repeating the above series of operations, the banknote A2 is placed in the thousand yen safe 17. loaded. The above operation is repeated, and when it is confirmed that there are no banknotes A2 in the deposit box 18, the loading operation is ended. If a rejected ticket is generated during this loading, the rejected ticket is sent to the reject conveyance path at the sixth gate 39f and stored in the deposit section 24 of the deposit box 18 via the ninth gate 39iS and the tenth gate 39j. In the embodiment described above, banknotes AI and A2 loaded from the loading box 19 and the deposit box 18 are stored in the stacking section 301a. 301b and then storing it in the storage section 20.21, when the stacking section 301a, 3
01b is not formed, it is not possible to take out for loading. Therefore, as shown in FIGS. 13 and 24(c), the loading box 19 and the deposit box 18 can be loaded alternately. That is, when the loaded banknotes are separated in advance into 10,000 yen and 1,000 yen, the denominations are set separately, such as 10,000 yen notes in the loading box 19 and 1,000 yen notes in the deposit box 18 (ST50). Then, in the same manner as described above, the 10,000 yen bills are taken out from the loading warehouse 19, counted and inspected, and the stacking section 301a of the 10,000 yen warehouse 16 is
The accumulated banknotes are stored (ST51 to 5T57). Then, while the ten thousand yen notes are being stored, a specific number of thousand yen notes are similarly taken out from the deposit box 18 and stored in the one thousand yen safe 17 (ST61 to 5T66). Note that while the 1,000 yen bill is being taken out, the loading warehouse 19 is in a standby state (S
T58). When the removal of the thousand yen note from the deposit box 18 is completed, (
ST58), it is confirmed whether or not it is loading storage 19 (ST59).
) Removal of 10,000 yen notes is started again. By repeating this parallel operation, the loaded banknotes are always being taken out from the loading box 19 or deposit box 18, and the taking out operation does not stop, so the loading time is shortened by the time required for storage. be able to. Then, when both the loading box 19 and the deposit box 18 are empty, (
S759.60) The loading operation ends. In the above embodiment, in the inspection operation, the banknotes are loaded into the loading box 19, but it is also possible to lock the banknotes into the deposit box 18. An example in which banknotes are closely inspected in both the loading box 19 and the deposit box 18 will be described in detail with reference to FIGS. 14, 15, and 24(f). The ten thousand yen banknotes A3 stored in the ten thousand yen storage 16 are taken out one by one by the takeout roller 304a (ST67).
The denomination and the like are determined by the inspection section 36 through the eighth gate 39h (ST69), and the coins are accumulated in the stacking section 301d of the loading warehouse 19 via the first gate 39a and the second gate 39b (ST70). When it is confirmed that 100 sheets have been accumulated in the stacking section 301d or that the 100,000 yen box 19 is empty (S
T71.72), the removal of banknotes A3 from the 10,000 yen warehouse 16 is temporarily stopped. Banknotes A3, backup 310d, and push plate 309d accumulated in the stacking section 301d of the loading warehouse 19
is lowered to below the flappers 315d, 315d. At this time, the flappers 315d, 315d are caught on the bill A3 under the push plate 309d, and rotated downward by the push force of the push plate 309d. And banknote A3 is flapper 315d. Dive under 315d and completely flapper 315d.

Again, the banknotes A4 are taken out one by one from the 1,000-yen storage 17, and this operation is repeated until there are no banknotes A4 left, thereby scrutinizing (tightening) the 1,000-yen banknotes. If the ticket is determined to be a rejected ticket by the inspection section 36 during inspection, it is stored in the deposit section 24 via the first gate 39a, sixth gate 39f1, ninth gate 3911, and tenth gate 39j. In the above embodiment, 10,000 yen is stored in the loading box 19, and 1,000 yen is stored in the deposit box 1.
Although the denominations have been tightened by denomination in step 8, it is also possible to tighten the denominations starting from 10,000 yen to the loading box 19, and then tighten the coins to the deposit box 18 after the loading box 19 is full. In the above-mentioned inspection operation using the loading box 19 and deposit box 18,
In either case, after the stacking and storing in the loading warehouse 19 is completed, the stacking and storing in the safe deposit box 18 is performed, but the stacking and storing in the loading vault 19 and the safe deposit box 18 can be performed alternately. This method will be explained using FIGS. 16 and 24. For example, a safe for inspection is set up in advance for each denomination, such as loading box 19 for 10,000 yen notes and deposit box 18 for 1,000 yen notes. ,
While the banknotes accumulated in the loading warehouse 19 are being stored in the manner described above, banknotes A4 are taken out from the thousand yen storage 17 and stored in the deposit box 18 in parallel. By repeating this parallel operation, processing time can also be reduced. That is, similar to the inspection operation described above, ten thousand yen bills are taken out from the ten thousand yen storage 16, counted and inspected, and stacked in the loading storage 19 (ST82-85). When the 10,000 yen bank 16 becomes empty or 100,000 yen notes are taken out and stacked (S T 86 , 87 ), the 10,000 yen banknotes are stored in the loading storage 19. At the same time as this storage operation begins, the removal of banknotes from the safe deposit box 18 begins (5T92), and after counting and inspection (ST93-95), it is determined whether the 1,000-yen bank is empty or there are only 100,000-yen bills.
When the coins are taken out (S T 98), the withdrawal from the deposit box 18 is stopped, and the amount of money is recorded (ST 98).
ST98). Removal from the deposit box 18 is stopped, and a storage operation is started (ST98). While the 1,000 yen note is being taken out, the unloading operation of the loading storage 19 is in a standby state (ST89), and when the 1,000 yen note is finished taking out, the unloading operation starts again in parallel with the 1,000 yen note storage operation. be done. In this way, 10,000 yen notes and 1,000 yen notes are examined alternately. Then, when both the 10,000-yen and 1,000-yen safes are empty (ST
90.91) The scrutiny operation ends. The operation mode of loading and inspection described above is carried out by the staff operating the internal monitor, and when loading, inspection, and completion, the number of loaded sheets and the number of examined sheets are counted, the number of sheets by denomination, the amount, and the total amount are displayed. The document is printed and emitted by the slip processing unit, and is also displayed on the internal monitor.
