As described above, when all the banknotes A are accumulated in the stacking section of each safe, the pushing plates 24 to 26 in each safe are used to
The stacked banknotes are pushed downward, locked by the flapper 315, and stored under the flapper 315, completing the deposit operation.

Next, the withdrawal operation will be explained using FIG. 11.

First, in each safe, the stored banknotes are pressed downward by the push plates 24 to 26 to release the flapper 315, and the push plates 24 to 26 are further raised to bring the stored banknotes into contact with the take-out roller 304. - Preparation operations are completed.

When the semi-m operation is completed, ten thousand yen bills are taken out from the Manda 16, and thousand yen bills are taken out one by one from the thousand yen 17 by the rotation of the take-out U-roller 304, and transported horizontally forward to the upper unit 14a. and transported to the inspection section 36. The banknotes inspected as genuine by the inspection section 36 are sent to the first gate 39.
a, the money is accumulated in the withdrawal-time accumulation unit 37 via the second gate 39b, the third gate 39C1, and the fourth gate 39d. The accumulated bills to be paid out are directly discharged into the bill storage chamber 454, the door 8 is opened, and the bills are paid to the customer.

The deposit return rA operation will be explained using FIG. 12. In the above-described deposit operation, when the cancel key on the CRT display section 9 is pressed after the banknotes A have been accumulated in the deposit-time accumulation section 38, the control section 92 releases the banknotes A as they are into the banknote storage chamber 454. After that, the door 8 is opened and the product is returned to the customer.

On the other hand, the operation for collecting items left behind will be explained using FIG. ,
If the customer does not take out the banknotes for withdrawal even after a certain period of time has elapsed after the door 8 is opened, the control unit 92 closes the door 8 and takes in the banknotes A one by one, and the control unit 92 closes the door 8 and takes in the banknotes A one by one. First gate 39a

Next, the loading (replenishment) operation of banknotes A will be explained using FIGS. 14 and 15.

First, banknotes A are set in the device II warehouse 19 and loading is started. The banknotes A are taken out one by one by the take-out rollers 3.4d of the loading warehouse 19 and passed through the second gate 39b.

The third gate 39C2 is transported forward through the third gate 39c, guided to the inspection section 36, and inspected for denomination, etc.

After inspection, the banknote A is conveyed downward from the first gate 39c, passes through the sixth gate 39fS and the seventh gate 39o, and the 1,000-yen note is changed direction at the seventh gate 39q. It is accumulated in the accumulation section 301b.

On the other hand, the ten thousand yen note passes through the seventh gate 39Q, is changed direction at the eighth gate 39h, and is transferred to the Manda 16 stacking section 30.
1a, and are pushed and stored in each storage section 20°21.

In addition, the banknotes that are inspected as being rejected by the inspection unit 36 at the time of ``!A loading are sorted upward at the first gate 39a, and are collected at the time of withdrawal via the second gate 39b and third gate 39c. The tickets are accumulated in the section 37.At this time, the tickets taken out from the VT storage 19 and passed through the second gate 39b,
The rejected ticket overlaps with the conveyance path R4 between the second gate and the third gate. For this reason, as shown in the illustration, there is a method to immediately stop taking out when a reject ticket is issued and resume taking out again after the rejected ticket has passed through the conveyance path R4, or to combine the taken out ticket and the rejected ticket. A method is adopted in which the rejected tickets and the loaded loaded tickets are conveyed in a stacked state and accumulated in the withdrawal-time accumulation section 37 together.

When the banknotes △ in the loading warehouse 19 run out, loading ends. When a rejected ticket is generated, the rejected ticket is carried from the withdrawal-time accumulation section 37 to the bill storage section 454, and is transported to the bill storage section 454,
03, the bills are inspected again by the inspection section 36, and the denominations are determined. The bills are guided downward through the first gate 39a and stored in the safes of each denomination. Here, the rejected ticket again is guided upward through the first gate 39a, and then redirected through the second gate 39b to the empty loading FI! It is stored in 19.

Next, the inspection operation will be explained using FIG. 16. For Manda 16. The banknotes A taken out from the 1,000 yen warehouse 17 are conveyed to the second unit, are discriminated by the inspection section 36, are changed direction from the first gate 39a to the second gate 39b, and are accumulated in the loading warehouse 19. It will be stored. When the inspection section 36 finds a pasted ticket that cannot be identified, it is conveyed downward from the first gate 39a, and passed through the sixth gate 30f, the ninth gate 391, and so on. The money is accumulated in the deposit section (reject section) 22b of the safe deposit box 18 via the tenth gate 39j.

In the 5A loading operation of the above embodiment, banknotes are loaded only from the loading box 19, and the loaded banknotes are set in the safe banknote storage section 22a of the safe deposit box 18, so that loading can also be performed from the safe deposit box 18.

Using FIG. 17 and FIG. 18, loading warehouse 19 and safe deposit box 1
The operation of loading banknotes from both safes in step 8 will be described in detail.

For example, 10,000 yen bills set in the loading warehouse 19 are sequentially taken out one by one by the take-out roller 304d, and the second gate 39b1 third gate 39C1 fifth gate 398

At that time, when it is confirmed that 100 thousand yen bills A2 have been taken out from the deposit box 18, the taking out operation is temporarily stopped.

The backup 310b is for backing up the banknotes accumulated in the 17 stacking units 301b for 1,000 yen by the pushing plate 25.
It is pushed down to the bottom of b. At this time, the flapper 315b is caught on the bill under the push plate 25, and rotated downward by the push force of the push plate 25. The banknote then slips under the flapper 315b. completely,
When the bill slips under the flapper 315b, the pushing force against the flapper 315b disappears, and the flapper 315
b returns to its original state. The bond, the push plate 25, returns to the uppermost position, and the backup 310b also attempts to return to the upper position. Then, the operation ends with the bill being sandwiched between the backup 310b and the flapper 315b.

Then, the operation of taking out the bill A2 from the deposit box 18 is resumed, and the banknote A2 is loaded into the thousand yen Jit 17 by repeating the above series of operations.

The above operation is repeated, and when it is confirmed that there are no banknotes Δ2 in the deposit Jii 18, the loading operation is ended.

Also, if a reject ticket is generated during loading, the reject ticket is sent to the reject conveyance path at the sixth gate 39f.
It is stored in the ejection part 22b of the safe deposit box 18 via the ninth gate 39c1 and the first o gate 39j.

In the above embodiment, when the banknotes loaded in the loading box 19 and the deposit box 18 are being pushed into the storage section 20.21 after being accumulated in the stacking sections 301a and 301b, the banknotes for loading are Unable to extract. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 19, the loaded banknotes are divided into denominations of 10,000 yen and 1,000 yen, such as 10,000 yen notes in the togi loading box 19 and 1,000 yen notes in the deposit box 18. are set separately, a specific number of 10,000 yen bills are taken out from the device aJi 119, and when the banknotes accumulated in the stacking section 301a of 10,000 yen 116 are being stored as described above, (~)

The inspection section 36 identifies the birch and the like, and the materials are accumulated in the accumulation section 301d of the storage 19 via the first gate 39a and the second gate 39b. Then, the accumulation section 301d
When it is confirmed that 100 banknotes have been accumulated, the removal of banknotes A3 from the Manda banknote 16 is temporarily stopped. The banknotes and backup 310d accumulated in the stacking section 301a of the loading warehouse 19 are pushed down to below the seven flapper 315d by the pusher plate 27, and at this time, the flapper 315d is caught by the banknotes under the pusher plate 27, and is released. - It rotates downward by the pushing force of the pushing plate 27.

The bill A3 then slips under the flapper 315d. When the banknote completely sinks under the flapper 315d, the pressing force on the flapper 315d is removed and the flapper 315d returns to its original state. after that,
The pushing plate 27 returns to the top and the backup 310d also tries to return to the top.

Then, the operation ends with the banknotes being sandwiched between the backup 310d and the flapper 315.

Then, the banknotes A3 are taken out one by one from the Manda banknote 16 again, and the above operation is repeated until all banknotes A3 are used up, thereby inspecting the ten thousand yen banknotes (N-up).

Next, when it is confirmed that the banknote A3 in the 10,000 yen 116 is gone, the 1,000 yen banknote A4 set in the 1,000 yen banknote 17 is
The sheets are taken out one by one by the take-out roller 304b,

The operation ends with the bill being sandwiched between the paper money 15c.

The banknotes are again taken out one by one from the 1,000-yen banknotes 17, and the above operation is repeated until all banknotes A4 are used up, thereby scrutinizing (tightening) the 1,000-yen banknotes.

Further, during the inspection, the receipt tickets that are determined to be rejected tickets by the inspection section 36 are stored at the first gate 39a and the sixth gate 3.
9f, the 9'7'-th gate 37i, and the o-th gate 39j, and are stored in the reject section 22b.

In the above embodiment, 10,000 yen is transferred to 1ltJi 119, 1,000 yen is transferred to the safe deposit box 18 by denomination, and the first 10,000 yen is transferred to the loading box 19. After the loading box 19 is full, the deposit box 18 is locked. You can also raise it.

In addition, in the inspection operation that asks if there is a deposit error, the accumulation and storage in the deposit box 18 is performed after the accumulation and storage in the loading warehouse 19 is completed, but the accumulation and storage in the device tn19 and the deposit box 18 are performed alternately. It is also possible to examine two safes alternately. This alternate examination of the two safes will be explained using FIG. 22.

For example, 10,000 yen bills are sent to the device 11j4i19, and 1,000 yen bills are sent to the safe deposit box 18, so that the denominations are separated and scrutinized. While carrying out the storing operation as described above, the banknotes accumulated in the
is taken out and stored in the deposit box 18. By repeating this parallel operation, processing time can also be shortened.

Next, referring to FIG. 23, the attachment of the deposit/withdrawal unit 12 to the housing 2 will be explained.

The unit 14a and the lower unit 14b are fixed and held on the inside of the housing 2 and the inner wall 2c of the housing by a slide rail a and a slide rail b, respectively. A gap d is maintained between the upper unit 14a and the lower unit 14b. Low 5110 is
It is attached to the lower surface of the upper unit 14a, and
It is provided so as to maintain the gap d and roll into contact with the upper surface of the lower unit 14b, so that the gap d does not become small. The vertical connection gear G transmits the power of the drive motor provided in the lower unit 14b to the upper unit 14a to drive the conveyance system. In this way, the upper unit 14a and the lower unit 14
Since b is held by a slide rail b, it can be pulled out to the front or rear of the housing 2 as necessary.

As shown in FIGS. 1 and 23, the casing 2 has a door 2a and an operation section 3 at the front, and a door 2b at the rear, which can be opened and closed. The unit can be pulled forward or backward. Also, depending on whether the unit is pulled out forward or backward, the upper and lower connecting gear G is

Next, the case where the unit is pulled out rearward and operated will be described using FIGS. 24 to 26.

In the rear operation, the upper and lower connecting gear, AG, is the upper unit 14.
a, it is possible to pull out the upper unit 14a and lower unit 14b at the same time (FIG. 24) or to pull out only the lower unit 14b (FIG. 25). As in the case of front operation, the loading storage 19 can be pulled out by opening the loading transport section R8a upward with the upper unit 14a and lower unit 14b pulled out.

In FIG. 25, only the lower unit 14b is pulled out to the rear, the lower conveyance path 48 rotates and opens, and the ten thousand yen piece 16.
The thousand yen box 17 and deposit box 18 can each be pulled out upward.

In addition, for rear operation, pull out the upper unit and
Alternatively, as shown in FIG. 26, with the upper unit 14a and the lower unit 14b housed in the housing 2, the loading Jff 119 and the deposit box 18 can be pulled out rearward. In other words, the rear end R8 of the device a transport section

can be pulled out backwards. Similarly, for the deposit box 18, the rear end 48b of the lower transport section 48 is flipped upward, and the deposit R18 can be pulled out rearward using the handle 111.

Next, the operation of this embodiment will be explained with reference to the processing flowcharts of FIGS. 27(a) to 27(j) and FIG. 28.

First, after power is turned on to the device, trading operations are started. After the start of business, if the customer requests a deposit transaction, the process proceeds to subroutine 100, and if the customer requests a withdrawal transaction, the process proceeds to subroutine 200.

On the other hand, if the banknotes are loaded from the operator operation panel provided at the back side of the device, the process goes to subroutine 300, and if banknotes of different types are to be loaded alternately, the process goes to subroutine 400. If it is a two-metal inspection, which is the tightening of banknotes, the process proceeds to step 500, and if banknotes of different types are to be examined alternately, the process proceeds to subroutine 600.Furthermore, the staff member operates the deposit/withdrawal unit 1 from the operator operation panel.
If the safe cassette 72 is replaced, the process proceeds to subroutine 700, if the safe cassette is removed, the process proceeds to subroutine 800, and if the safe is installed, the process proceeds to subroutine 900 (steps 10 to 90).

When proceeding to the deposit transaction, the customer inserts banknotes from the deposit/withdrawal lower. When banknotes are inserted from the deposit/withdrawal lower, the door 8 is closed and the banknotes are taken out one by one from the banknote storage chamber 454.

The taken out banknotes are conveyed via the take-in conveyance path R,
The number of bills is counted by the bill passage detector 40a (steps 100 to 115).

The banknotes detected by the banknote passage detection 40a are inspected by the inspection unit 3
6, the front and back of the banknotes are discriminated, and the banknotes are stacked in the deposit-time stacking section 37 via the first gate 39a and the third gate 39c. When the banknotes are accumulated, the control unit 92 of the deposit/withdrawal unit 12 prompts the customer to input approval or approval from the CRT display unit 9, and if the customer approves, the process proceeds to step 140; if not approved, the process proceeds to step 165 (step 120～
135).

Proceeding to step 140, the control unit 92 conveys the banknotes in the deposit box-time accumulation unit 37 to the banknote storage chamber 454, and sequentially takes out the banknotes from the take-out roller 403. The banknotes are transported to the banknote storage section 20a. Further, if the bill is a thousand yen bill, the control unit 92 transports and stores it in the 17 thousand yen bill storage section 21a for thousand yen. When the deposit processing is completed, the main control unit 51 of the device 1 stores the processing and number of banknotes deposited at a predetermined address in the RAM 53. The main control unit 51 also transmits the number and type of banknotes stored in each safe to the host computer via the transmission control unit 65 (
Steps 140-160).

Proceeding to step 165, the control unit 92 transports the banknotes accumulated in the deposit-time accumulation unit 37 to the banknote storage chamber 454 and opens the door 8. When the door 8 is opened, the control unit 92 closes the door 8 when the banknote is returned to the customer (steps 165 to 1).
80).

When proceeding to the withdrawal transaction, the customer deposits the withdrawal amount from the CRT display section 9. Inside each safe, the stored banknotes are pressed downward by the push plates 24 to 26 to release the flapper 315 and come into contact with the takeout roller 304 (steps 200 to 2).
05).

The control unit 92 sequentially takes out stored banknotes from each safe using the take-out roller 304 in response to the withdrawal amount.

The number of removed banknotes is counted by banknote detectors 4011 to 40s, and then conveyed to the inspection section 36. When the banknote is transported to the inspection unit 36, the control unit 92 performs step 2 if the denomination of the taken-out banknote matches the denomination of the withdrawal amount.
Proceed to step 35, and if the denominations do not match, return it to the safe from which it was taken out and store it.
The number of sheets returned is memorized (steps 225 to 2.30).
).

Proceeding to step 235, if the control unit 92 takes out two bills from the safe, they are returned to each safe and stored. Further, the control section 92 counts up an area for the number of times of taking two sheets at a predetermined address of the EEPROM 95, and proceeds to step 255. On the other hand, if two bills are not taken, the control section 92 causes the withdrawal-time accumulation section 37 to accumulate the bills taken out from each safe, and proceeds to step 255 (steps 235 to 250).
).

Proceeding to step 255, if the control unit 92 does not accumulate banknotes corresponding to the withdrawal amount in the withdrawal-time accumulation unit 37, the control unit 92 returns to step 210 and takes out banknotes from each safe. On the other hand, when the banknotes corresponding to the withdrawal amount are accumulated in the withdrawal-time accumulation unit 37, the control unit 92 discharges the accumulated banknotes to the banknote storage chamber 452. After discharging, the control section 92 opens the door 8. When the banknote 8 is opened and a banknote is extracted by the customer, the process proceeds to step 275 (steps 255 to 270).

Proceeding to step 275, the control section 92 closes the door 8 and compares the ratio between the total number of sheets stored in the EEPROM 95 of each safe and the number of sheets determined by the inspection section 36 to take two sheets or to be picked. If the compared ratio exceeds the allowable range, the control unit 92 sets a flag indicating an abnormality. This flag indicates that the banknotes cannot be removed from the safe set 72 in question. On the other hand, the main control unit 51 of the device 1 reduces the number of bills to be withdrawn from the number of bills stored in each safe and
It is stored in a predetermined address of M53. Record 9! i, the main control unit 51 transmits the number of coins stored in each safe to the host computer via the transmission control unit 65 (steps 275 to 29).
5).

When proceeding to two-metal loading, the staff member sets ten thousand yen notes in one loading box and one thousand yen notes in the deposit box 18.

When the setting is completed, the control unit 92 causes the device I7 to take out ten thousand yen bills one by one from the warehouse using the take-out roller 304d and count the number of bills using the bill detector.

In the post-control unit 92, the extracted ten thousand yen note is conveyed to the inspection unit 36, where the type of note is determined by the inspection unit 36. When the inspection is completed, the ten thousand yen note is transferred to the Manda bank via a conveyance path. 16
are accumulated in the ten thousand yen bill storage section 20a (step 300
~320).

When the above-mentioned loading is performed, the control unit 92 stores the 10,000 yen note in the 10,000 yen 116 when one loading storage is empty, and
If it is not empty, continue loading up to 100 100,000 yen bills. 1
When the loading of the 00-yen notes is completed, the control section 92 stores the 10,000-yen notes in the Manda 16. If the loading compartment 19 becomes empty after storing banknotes in the Manda 16, the process advances to step 345; if it is not empty, the process returns to step 305 and continues loading (step 3
25-340).

Proceeding to step 345, the control unit 92 sequentially takes out the thousand yen bills from the safe storage section 22a of the safe deposit box 18 using the take-out roller 304C. The taken out 1,000 yen bills are counted by a banknote detector and conveyed to the inspection section 36, where the inspection section 36 discriminates the bills by seconds and then stacks them in a 17 for 1,000 yen bills. When the deposit 118 becomes empty, the control section 92 stores the thousand yen bills accumulated in the thousand yen bank 17 into the thousand yen banknote storage section 21a.

On the other hand, if the deposit box 18 is not empty, up to 100 thousand yen bills are accumulated in the thousand yen banknote 17 and stored in the thousand yen banknote storage section 21a. After storage, the control unit 92 returns to step 345 if the deposit box 18 is not empty.

On the other hand, when the deposit box 18 becomes empty, the main control section 51 adds up the loaded numbers of 10,000 yen bills and 1,000 yen bills, stores it in the RAM 53, and then transmits it to the host computer via the transmission control section 65 (365 to 390 ).

When the process proceeds to alternate loading of two safes, ten thousand yen notes are set in the loading box 19, and thousand yen notes are set in the deposit box 118. The control unit 92 takes out ten thousand yen bills from one loading warehouse, counts the number of bills, and after the bill type is determined by the inspection unit 36, stacks the bills in the Manda bank 16, and when the loading cabinet 19 becomes empty, the banknotes are counted. Store the yen notes in 10,000 yen n16. On the other hand, if the loader 119 is not empty, up to 100 100,000 yen notes are loaded and stored in the Manda charger 16.

Once stored in the Manda 16, the control unit 92 temporarily suspends loading (steps 400 to 435).

If the 1,000 yen bill is not taken out from the deposit 118 and the loading warehouse 19 is not empty, the control unit 92 returns to step 405 and resumes loading. On the other hand, if the loading/119 is empty and the deposit box 18 is also empty, the control unit 51 controls the II

If it is not empty, the control unit 92 takes out the 1,000 yen bills from the deposit PJ 18, counts the number of them, and after the inspection unit 36 determines the ticket type, accumulates the 1,000 yen bills (steps 440 to 4).
75).

If the deposit box 18 is empty, the control unit 92 transfers the 1,000 yen bill to 1,000 yen.
Store it in 7. On the other hand, if the deposit box 18 is empty, the control section 92 loads 100 1,000 yen bills and stores them in the 1,000 yen bank 17. After storing, the control unit 92 returns to step 445 if the H charger n19 is not being taken out and the deposit box 18 is empty, and returns to step 460 if the deposit box 18 is not empty (
Steps 480-495).

Proceeding to step 497, the main control section 51 transmits the number of stored sheets for Manda 16 and thousand yen 17 to the host computer via the transmission control section 65 (step 497).

Proceeding to the inspection of the second safe, the control section 92 takes out ten thousand yen bills from the ten thousand yen banknote 16, counts the number of bills using the banknote detector 40s, and after determining the bill type by the inspection section 36, accumulates them in the @ deposit [19]. After stacking, if the ten thousand yen counter 16 is empty, the control unit 92 transfers the stacked bills to the load/ll 19 to the bill storage unit 2.
Store in 3.

On the other hand, if the million yen bill 16 is not empty, up to 100 million yen bills are taken out and stored in the loading storage 19. After storage, control unit 9
2, if the loading storage 19 is full, proceed to step 545;
If loading [19 is not full and million yen jF16 is empty, proceed to step 545, and if million yen jF 19 is not empty, return to step 500 (steps 500 to 540)
.

Proceeding to step 545, the lil m section 92 takes out thousand yen bills from the thousand yen bill 17, counts the number of bills, and then accumulates them in the deposit box 18 upon completion of the bill type discrimination by the inspection section 36. When the 1,000 yen jl 17 is empty, the accumulated 1,000 yen 17 is stored in the 1,000 yen bill storage section 21a, and if the 1,000 yen 17 is not empty, the 1,000 yen bill is stored.

Take out up to 1,000 yen from Jii17. After taking out the money, the control unit 92 stores it in the banknote storage section 22a of the deposit JIR, 18 (steps 545 to 575).

After storage, if the deposit box 18 is full, the control unit 92 sets the number of sheets to be inspected in the loading box 19 and the deposit #1 in the loading box 118 and the deposit #.

~597).

When proceeding to the alternating examination of the two-denomination order, the control section 92 sequentially takes out ten thousand yen bills from the ten thousand yen bill 16 and stacks them in the loading warehouse 19 after the bill type is determined by the inspection section 36. After the stacking, when the ten thousand yen bag 16 becomes empty, the control unit 92 stores it in the loading storage 19. On the other hand, if the million yen note 16 is not empty, the control unit 92 takes out up to 100 million yen notes and then stores them in the loading warehouse 19. After storage, the control unit 92 returns to step 600 if no thousand yen bill is taken out from the thousand yen bill 17, the ten thousand yen bill 16 is not empty again, and one loading storage is not full. If the loading box 19 is full, the 1,000 yen bank 17 is not empty, and the deposit box 18 is full, the control unit 92 writes the addition σ of the number of sheets to be examined in the EEPROM 95 of the loading/Ii 19 and the deposit box 18. It's crowded.

On the other hand, if the thousand yen 17 is not empty and the deposit box 18 is full, the process advances to step 665 (steps 600 to 65).
5).

Proceeding to step 665, the control section 92 takes out thousand yen bills from the thousand yen bill 17, counts the number of bills, and after the inspection section 36 determines the bill type, accumulates them in the deposit box 18. 17 for 1,000 yen
If it is empty, the control unit 92 stores the thousand yen bill in the deposit box 18. On the other hand, if the thousand yen 17 is not empty, up to 100 thousand yen bills are taken out and stored in the safe 18. After storage, if the banknotes from the million yen 16h1 are not taken out and the thousand yen 1iJ17 is empty, the process returns to step 640, and if it is not empty, the process returns to step 665 (steps 665 to 690).

Proceeding to step 692, the main control unit 51
The number of sheets to be inspected for 16 million yen and 17 for thousand yen is reduced and written in the RAM 53, and the number of stored sheets for 16 million yen and 17 for thousand yen is transmitted to the host computer via the transmission control unit 65 (steps 692 to 694 ) Money n (When proceeding to the exchange, the control unit 92 stops the loading operation, and if the safe is removed by the detection signal from the reed switch 78 and the safe is set, the EEPROM 95 of the set safe is
The type and number of banknotes stored are read (steps 700 to 730).

When the safe fails, the control unit 92 stops the operation when a signal for decontamination instruction is input from the main control unit 51. After the operation is stopped, the control unit 92 loads the safe cassette 72 that stores information in the memory (EEPRO-195) of the set safe (steps 800-830).

When proceeding to loading the safe, the control section 92 stops the operation when a loading instruction signal is input from the main control section 51. When the safe cassette 72 is installed, the memory of the installed safe (EE
Information such as the number of banknotes stored in the safe is read from the PROM 95 (steps 900 to 930).

Next, the operation of loading banknotes from the banknote sorting machine 100 into the safe cassette 72 will be described using the processing flowchart of FIG. 28.

First, the clerk inserts the ID card at 103 when inserting the ID card. After insertion, the clerk sets the safe cassette 72, for example the loading bin 19, into the storage unit 102. After setting, the control section (not shown) of the device controls the set B filler 1.
19(7) Information is read from the EEPROM 95 and if the set safe cassette 72 is not empty, a warning light (not shown) is emitted as a warning and the process ends. On the other hand, if the set loading storage 19 is empty and the safe has been removed incorrectly, the above-mentioned warning will be issued and the process will be terminated. Insert the banknotes you want. After inputting the banknotes, when the clerk presses the start key, the banknotes are taken out from the hopper 104 and transferred to the inspection section 10.
5. The inspection unit 105 inspects the front and back sides of the banknotes and determines the denomination, then counts the number of genuine banknotes and conveys them to the conveyance path R12. The transported banknotes are accumulated in the banknote storage section 23 of the V4 loading dock 19 via the transport path R12. If the accumulated number has reached the storage number, the banknote storage section 2
It is stored in 3. On the other hand, if the number of stored sheets has not been reached, 1
When up to 00 bills have been accumulated, they are stored in the bill storage section 23. After storage, the number of stored EPROMs is 19 in the loading compartment.
Information on the number of stored sheets is stored in 95, and the process ends (steps 1000 to 1150).

The loading box 19 into which banknotes have been inserted can be set and loaded in the automatic transaction device 1 as described above.

As explained above, when replenishing the safe cassette 72 of the deposit/withdrawal unit 12 with banknotes, replenishing the banknotes is completed by simply storing the banknotes in the safe cassette 72 and setting them in the automatic transaction device 1. The banknotes stored in the bank can be strictly managed. Furthermore, since the opening and closing of the lid 74 of the safe cassette 72 can be controlled, banknotes can be strictly managed when carrying the safe cassette 72.

[Effects of the Invention J] As explained below, according to the present invention, a large number of coins are removed from a plurality of safes storing coins for each type of coins.
When the ratio between the number of C coins and the number of coins that have been removed incorrectly exceeds a predetermined value, information to the effect that they cannot be used is stored in the memory, so that the currency that cannot be traded due to being removed from the safe is stored in the memory.
