Primary address counter 14, primary memory 15, primary input control means 16, printing means 17, display means 1
8, data transfer control means 19. The primary memory 15 mainly stores input and output money amounts by denomination, and the secondary memory 12 mainly stores cash balances by denomination.

The money dispensing device includes data transfer control means 20,
Money dispensing control means 21, denomination-specific dispensing drive means 2
2, storage means 23, payout currency counting means 24, tray 25, and payout completion detection means 26.

Next, the operation of this conventional device will be explained separately in setting mode and registration mode.

FIG. 2 shows a flowchart of the setting mode program. In order to use this cash teller system, the operator must first set the data necessary for transaction registration in the cash teller device.

That is, the mode selection switch 1 is selected to the setting mode, and the mode information is stored in the mode information storage means 2. In this state, when the operator presses any key of the numerical input means 3 or the function key group 4 to input setting data, the key input detection means 5 is activated and the mode information is sent to the CPU.
Input and store in area a of 6. When the setting mode information is stored in area a in this way, the CPU
6 processes the data input thereafter as setting data according to a setting program stored in advance in the ROM 7.

Next, the operator sets whether or not to link the cash teller device with the money dispensing device.
The interlock selection switch 8 is operated to set a flag in area b of the CPU 6 indicating interlocking of the money dispensing device. Next, in order to input the total amount of cash on hand in the cash teller device () and the cash amount in the money dispensing device for each denomination, amount information is input to the CPU 6 via the key encoder 9 from the numerical input means 3. The denomination key t of the function key group 4 is used to instruct the CPU 6 via the key discrimination means 10 which denomination the previously inputted information relates to. Upon receiving this instruction, the CPU 6 transfers the information to the secondary memory 12 specified by the secondary address counter 11.
Each denomination amount is input and stored in the denomination area via the input/output control means 13. Furthermore, the operator
Data necessary for transaction registration is input and set, but the explanation is omitted because it is not particularly related to the gist of the present invention.

FIG. 3 shows a flowchart of the registration mode program. Assume that various data settings have been completed through the operations described above, and transaction registration has now occurred. The operator selects the mode selection switch 1 to the registration mode in the same manner as described above, and
Register mode information is input and stored in area a of the CPU 6. When this registration mode information is input and memorized,
The CPU 6 processes subsequent input data as registration data according to a registration processing program (shown in FIG. 3) written in advance in the ROM 7.

Specifically, first, the account to which the transaction belongs, such as ordinary deposit or current account, is input by pressing the item keys I to N of the function key group 4. Indicates which account the transaction belongs to. Next, the operator inputs the total amount of the transaction into the numerical input means 3.
input to the CPU 6 via the key encoder 9,
Subsequently, the withdrawal instruction key of the function key group 4 is pressed to instruct the CPU 6 via the key discrimination means 10 that the amount information previously input is related to withdrawal processing.

Upon receiving this instruction, the CPU 6 inputs and stores the withdrawal amount in the withdrawal area of the primary memory 15 specified by the primary address counter 14 via the primary input/output control means 16. Further, this information is printed on paper such as a receipt by the printing means 17 and displayed by the display means 18.

Next, in order to enter the breakdown of the withdrawal amount by denomination, the operator inputs the amount information of each denomination from the input means 3 to the CPU 6 via the key encoder 9, and presses the denomination key of the function key group 4. t is used to instruct the CPU 6 via the key discrimination means 10 to input which denomination of the previously input amount is. Upon receiving this instruction, the CPU 6 temporarily stores this denomination amount in a predetermined area of the primary memory 15 specified by the primary address counter 14 via the primary input/output control means 16. Further, this data is printed on a receipt or the like in the same manner as above.

Furthermore, the CPU 6 determines whether or not there is a flag in area b, and determines whether or not the money dispensing device is interlocked.
In this case, since the money dispensing device is interlocked,
The CPU 6 determines whether each input denomination amount can be paid out by the money dispensing device, and if it is possible to pay out and the data of all the denomination amounts is completed, the CPU 6 determines whether the input denomination amount can be paid out by the money dispensing device. An instruction to pay out money is given to the user via the data transfer control means 19.

The money dispensing device receives this dispensing instruction via the data transfer control means 20.
1, the currency stored in the storage means 23 is dispensed into the receiving tray 25 by the drive means 22 for each denomination. The payout coins are counted by the counting means 24, and the count signal is input to the payout completion detection means 26. When the payout of each denomination is completed, the detection means 26 gives a payout completion signal to the payout control means 21.

In this way, when the payouts of all denominations are completed, the payout control means 21 transfers the payout to the data transfer control means 2.
A payout completion command is transferred to the cash teller device via 0.

Upon receiving this command, the CPU 6 determines whether the total withdrawal amount entered earlier matches the total amount of each denomination just paid out, and if they match, it is stored in the secondary memory 12. The amount of each denomination that has just been paid out is subtracted from the amount of each denomination of cash in stock.

When one transaction registration is completed in this way, the necessary data in the primary memory 15 is transferred to and stored in the secondary memory, and a slip is issued in the printing section 17, so that the contents stored in the primary memory 15 are prepared for the next transaction registration. to clear.

The above explained the case where the money dispensing devices are linked, but if they are not linked, when the input of the amount data for each denomination is completed, the operator will be able to check the previously input total withdrawal amount and the total amount of all denominations. To check whether or not they match, the collation key A of the function key group 4 is pressed to give a collation instruction to the CPU 6.

Upon receiving this instruction, the CPU 6 subtracts the current withdrawal amount for each denomination from the current balance of each denomination in the secondary memory 12 if the matching results match, and also saves the data stored in the primary memory 15. is transferred to and stored in the secondary memory, a slip is issued by the printing means 17, and the stored contents of the primary memory 15 are cleared in preparation for the next registration process as described above.

<Problems to be Solved by the Invention> As mentioned above, in conventional cash teller systems, the cash teller and money dispenser are usually connected one to one, as shown in Figure 4a. However, recently there has been a demand for a practical system in which two cash teller machines A and B and one money dispensing machine are shared, as shown in FIG. 4b.

However, simply connecting two cash teller devices to the money dispensing device with the conventional configuration described above
Since the denomination data dispensed by the money dispensing device is distributed to and subtracted from the secondary memory 12 of the cash dispensing device to which it is linked, the current balance of the money dispensing device is not stored in any of them. Therefore, there is a problem that the current balance of the entire system cannot be accurately managed.

<Object of the invention> In order to eliminate the above problems, the present invention has the following features:
To provide a money teller system that can accurately manage the cash balance in the system even in a system in which a plurality of money teller machines are connected to one money dispenser.

<Means for Solving the Problems> The cash accounting system of the present invention has the following technical means for solving the above problems.
That is, a money teller device that registers and processes various money transaction information and a money dispenser that dispenses money in a designated denomination corresponding to the payout amount generated in each transaction registration are connected via a data transfer control means. When the money teller device and the money dispensing device are set to be interlocked, the amount instructed to be paid out from the money teller device via the data transfer control means is paid out from the money dispensing device, and the two devices are interlocked. In a cash teller system that allows withdrawals by manual operation in the cash teller device when the above cash teller device is not set, a first step that processes input data to the cash teller device based on a set data processing program is provided.
CPU, and each time the cash is paid out by hand operation in this cash teller device, the payout amount is transferred to the first CPU.
a first storage means for storing the cash inventory by denomination after subtraction by denomination, and a first storage means for storing the cash inventory by denomination of the money of the money dispensing device in the money dispensing device. and a second CPU that causes the second storage means to subtract the amount paid out by the money dispensing device for each denomination from the cash inventory stored in the second storage means and store the result in the second storage means. In preparation, the first CPU stores whether or not the amount entered at the time of the interlock setting can be paid out in each designated denomination, and the cash inventory for each denomination stored in the second storage means. It is characterized by the addition of a function to compare and judge.

<Function> With the above configuration, when multiple cash teller devices are connected to one money dispenser, the denominations and amounts paid out by hand operation from each money teller device are transferred to those devices. The denominations and amounts that will be paid out from now on when the money dispensing device is in an interlocked state are stored in the first storage means built in each individual, and are stored in the second storage means built in the money dispensing device. Therefore, each storage means stores the current amount of money for each denomination of the device in which it is installed. Therefore, the current balance of the entire system can be managed accurately.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the block diagram of FIG. 5 and the flowcharts of FIGS. 6 and 7.

The embodiment shown in FIG. 5 is different from the embodiment shown in FIG. 1 in that the money dispensing device has a CPU 30, an address counter 31, an input/output control means 32, a tertiary memory 33, and a ROM 34, which are independent of the memory in the money teller device. The two main points are that the ROM 7 is provided as a ROM 7, and the contents of the program written in the ROM 7 are different. Components that are the same as those in the embodiment shown in FIG.

FIG. 6 shows a flowchart of a program related to setting various data.

As before, the operator presses mode selection switch 1.
is selected as the setting mode, the setting mode information is input and stored in area a of the CPU 6, and the setting program of the ROM 7 is selected and specified. Also, select the coin dispensing device interlocking selection switch 8 to the interlocking side, and CPU 6
A flag indicating interlocking is set in area b.

Next, the operator inputs the amount data into the CPU 6 via the key encoder 9 from the numerical input means 3 in order to set the cash amount of the cash denomination to be dispensed, and presses the denomination key t of the function key group 4.
is used to instruct the CPU 6 via the key discrimination means 10 which denomination the amount data previously input is. Upon receiving this instruction, the CPU 6 uses the secondary memory 12 specified by the secondary address counter 11.
The cash stock for each denomination is input and stored in a predetermined area of the controller via the secondary input/output control means 13 (61).

Once the setting of the data of the denomination amount to be dispensed is completed in this way, the operator can input the denomination amount to be paid out from the money dispensing device one after another using the numerical input means 3.
The denomination data is input to the CPU 6 using the denomination key t of the function key group 4.

When the input of the cash denomination amount of the money dispensing device to the CPU 6 is completed in this way, the operator then presses the data transfer instruction key B of the function key group 4 to input the previously input denomination data to the CPU 6. Give transfer instructions. CPU that received this instruction
6 transfers each denomination data to the money dispensing device via the data transfer control means 19.

The CPU 30 receives this data via the data transfer control means 20 on the money dispensing device side, and transfers this cash inventory by denomination to a predetermined area of the tertiary memory 33 specified by the address counter 31. Enter and store via (62).

In this way, when the storage of the cash amount for each denomination on the money dispensing device side is completed, the CPU 30 transfers a command indicating the completion of data storage to the cash dispensing device side. Upon receiving this command, the CPU 6 completes the setting of the amount in stock for each denomination and sets other data.

Next, transaction data registration processing will be explained.
After completing the various information settings as described above, if a certain transaction registration occurs, the operator sets the mode selection switch 1 to the registration mode and sets the registration mode information in area a of the CPU 6 in the same manner as described above. If so, the data input from now on will be
Processing is performed by a registration processing program stored in the ROM 7.

Specifically, in order to specify which account the transaction belongs to, such as ordinary deposit or current account, operate the subject keys I to N of function key group 4,
The key determination means 10 instructs the CPU 6 which account the transaction belongs to.

Next, the operator enters the transaction amount in the transaction using the input means 3 via the key encoder 9.
The transaction is input to the CPU 6, and then the deposit or withdrawal key of the function key group 4 is pressed to instruct whether the transaction is a deposit or a withdrawal, and an instruction is given to the CPU 6 via the key discrimination means 10. Here, it is assumed that a withdrawal instruction has been given.

Upon receiving this instruction, the CPU 6 inputs and stores the withdrawal amount and item information into a predetermined area of the primary memory 15 specified by the primary address counter 14 via the primary input/output control means 16. Further, this data is printed on a slip or the like by the printing means 17.

At this time, the CPU 6 refers to area b and determines whether or not the money dispensing device is linked to the cash teller device. If it is linked, when the metal data for each denomination is input, It is determined whether or not the metal can be paid out in each designated denomination by comparing it with the cash inventory by denomination read from the tertiary memory 33 via the input/output control means 32, and if it is determined that the metal cannot be paid out. If it is determined that this is the case, a display or the like is performed to inform the operator of this fact.

On the other hand, if it is determined that the payout is possible and all the data for each denomination has been input, the operator presses the payout instruction key T of the function key group 4.
Give instructions for paying out each denomination to the CPU 6. Upon receiving this instruction, the CPU 6 sends a money dispensing instruction to the money dispensing device via the data transfer means 19 along with the data on each denomination and amount.

The CPU 30 receives this data by denomination and the payout instruction via the data transfer control means 20, and the ROM 34
The payout control means 2 according to the program stored in the
1, and the driving means 22 sequentially transfers the coins stored in the storage means 23 to the receiving tray 25 for each denomination.
pay out to At this time, the number of coins to be paid out is counted by the counting means 24, and this counting signal is also input to the payout confirmation means 26 to confirm the payout, and then the payout completion signal is input to the payout control means 21. do. Upon receiving this signal, the payout control means 21 gives a payout completion signal to the CPU 30.

In this manner, when all denominations have been paid out, the CPU 30 subtracts the amount of each denomination just paid out from each denomination data stored in the tertiary memory 33 (71). Next, the CPU 30 transfers the payout completion command to the cash accounting device side via the data transfer control means 20.

The CPU 6 that received this payout completion command,
It is determined whether the previously input transaction total amount matches the total amount of all denominations that have just been paid out, and if they match, each stored data in the primary memory 15 is transferred to the secondary memory. 12 areas, and the contents of the primary memory 15 are cleared in preparation for the next transaction registration.

On the other hand, if the money dispensing device is not interlocked, the operator presses the collation instruction key A of function key group 4 after completing input of each denomination and amount.
The CPU 6 is instructed to determine whether or not the previously input withdrawal amount matches the total amount of each denomination (72).

Upon receiving this instruction, the CPU 6 makes the determination,
If the two amounts match, the denomination amount stored in the primary memory 15 is subtracted from each denomination amount stored in the secondary memory 12 (73). Next, the CPU 6 accumulates and stores the various data in the primary memory 15 in the secondary memory 12 together with the transaction amount by the above-mentioned money dispensing device, and then stores the stored contents in the primary memory 15 in preparation for the next transaction registration. clear.

<Effects of the Invention> As explained above, according to the present invention, each time a cash is dispensed from a cash teller machine by hand operation, the cash balance by denomination of the machine is updated and stored in the built-in first storage means. , each time the money dispensing device is disbursed in the linked state, the cash inventory by denomination of the device is updated and recorded in the built-in second storage means, so that the cash amount by denomination on both the cash dispensing device side and the money dispensing device side is updated and recorded. It is possible to clearly understand each cash balance, and therefore, even when a system is configured in which multiple cash dispensing devices are connected to a single money dispensing device, it is possible to accurately manage the cash balance of the entire system. It can be performed. Furthermore, when withdrawing money from a money dispensing device, it is determined whether or not it is possible to pay out the specified denomination based on the cash inventory by denomination on the device side.
This can be easily checked on the cash teller side, and the system as a whole can be highly reliable.
