Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a bill depositing / dispensing machine capable of easily and reliably managing reject bills.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art As a bill depositing / dispensing machine capable of reusing deposited bills as dispensed bills, for example, Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2-184990.
The one shown in Japanese Patent Publication is known. This banknote depositing / dispensing machine stores the deposited banknotes of which the deposit has been confirmed through the circulation type depositing temporary pool section in a denomination mixed state in a storage stacking type deposit stacker, and further stores the banknotes stored in this deposit stacker, In the interim of transactions, etc., through the circulating deposit temporary pool section,
It is configured so that it can be distributed to each type of money in the circulation type stacker for withdrawal, and the stored banknotes stored in the circulation type stacker for withdrawal are regenerated as withdrawal banknotes. It is being used. On the other hand, this banknote depositing / dispensing machine dispenses a traveling abnormal ticket that is determined to be near-feed, double feed, etc., when the deposited banknotes are distributed from the deposit stacker to the denomination-type circulation type stacker and the denomination-type circulation type stacker. Similarly, when the stored banknotes are dispensed to the coin slot, the abnormal running ticket determined to be near-feed, double-feed, or the like is stored in the reject box as a reject banknote.

[0003]

By the way, in the banknote depositing / dispensing machine configured as described above, when the deposited banknotes are distributed from the deposit stacker to the denomination-type circulation type stacker, and when the denomination-type circulation type stacker is dispensed. When dispensing banknotes stored in the mouth, reject tickets, which are running abnormal tickets, are stored in a common reject box, and if there are reject banknotes during the distribution process, the type of money Even if the number of sheets stored in the circulation stacker can be confirmed by a passage sensor (not shown) in front of each stacker, it becomes unclear how many banknotes were actually delivered from the removable safe, and as a result In addition, there was a problem that the amount of money on the removable safe side became unknown. In other words, once the reject banknotes determined during the distribution process are stored in the reject box, it is determined whether they were dispensed during the distribution process or those dispensed during the withdrawal process. There is a problem that the total number (total amount) of the bills paid out from the deposit stacker is unknown and the amount of money in the deposit stacker is unknown.

Further, such a bill depositing / dispensing machine is usually used in a financial institution, usually in a state of being connected to an online system. Therefore, the bill depositing / dispensing machine must accurately recognize how much cash is always stored (inventory information). On the other hand, such a banknote pay-in / pay-out device is desired to be able to load and collect the banknotes into and from the banknote pay-in / pay-out device with only one cassette, from the viewpoint of simplicity and stability in cash management. In order to realize such a system, a configuration is provided in which one cassette can be detachably attached.

When the above-mentioned bill depositing / dispensing machine adopts a construction in which one cassette is attached / detached, for example, it is recognized how much the total amount of money is reduced by removing the cassette from the machine body. Therefore, it is necessary to completely understand the inventory information of the cassette itself. Then, based on such a background, when the removable cash box in which the deposited banknotes are stored is a removable cassette for loading and recovery, the distribution process from the removable cash box to the denomination-type circulation stacker is performed. When rejected banknotes occur, the amount of money in the removable safe becomes unknown, so the removable safe is taken out of the machine only after the re-identification processing of all the banknotes in the removable safe. There was a problem that I could not do it.

The present invention has been made in view of the above circumstances, and it is possible to clearly grasp the amount of money of a banknote in a removable cash box, and thus all the banknotes in the removable cash box. It is an object of the present invention to provide a banknote depositing / dispensing machine that can immediately take out the removable safe from the machine body without performing the re-discrimination processing step by step.

[0007]

In order to achieve the above object, in the first aspect of the invention, a bill storing section for discriminating banknotes deposited from a deposit opening by a discriminating section and storing only receivable banknotes based on the discrimination result. Having a deposit system having a denomination and a denomination type stacker in which banknotes are stored for each denomination, and after determining the banknotes in the denomination type stacker by the withdrawal determination unit, only the banknotes that can be withdrawn from the withdrawal opening A banknote having a withdrawal system for withdrawing, and at the time of distribution, after the banknotes in the banknote storage section are discriminated by the discriminating section of the deposit system, only the distributable banknotes are guided to the withdrawal type stacker. A depositing / dispensing machine, wherein the depositing system is provided with a first reject box for storing banknotes that are not distributable at the time of distribution as reject banknotes, and the dispensing system is disallowed when dispensing. Store bills as reject bills A second reject box
The deposit banknote storage unit and the first reject box are detachably attached to the machine body.

According to the second aspect of the present invention, a counting means for counting the amount of deposited banknotes deposited in the withdrawal type stacker is provided.

[0009]

According to the present invention, after the bills in the bill storage unit of the deposit system are discriminated by the discriminating unit, only the receivable bills are guided to the withdrawal type stacker by the discriminating unit during the distribution process. The banknotes that cannot be distributed are stored as reject banknotes in the first reject box of the deposit system, while the banknotes in the denomination-type stacker are discriminated,
During withdrawal processing that only withdraws banknotes that can be withdrawn,
The banknotes that cannot be dispensed by the discriminating unit are stored as reject banknotes in the second reject box of the dispensing system. In other words, when the banknotes are distributed from the deposit system banknote storage unit to the withdrawal system type stacker, the reject banknotes detected by the discriminating unit are different from the deposit system second reject box. Since it is arranged to be stored in the first reject box of the
After subtracting the amount of money to be dispensed (the amount of deposit (the amount of deposit) deposited in the denomination stacker) during the distribution process from the amount of banknotes in the reject box, the banknote storage unit and the first reject box are displayed after the distribution process. It is possible to grasp the money amount of the banknotes inside the banknotes, and in particular, it is possible to take out the banknote storage section and the first reject box from the machine body at any time except during the depositing process and the dispensing process.

(1) Deposit Counting Process (Refer to FIG. 4) In the deposit counting process, the bill inserted into the deposit port 2 is taken into the machine 100 via the deposit route 1, and the bill is discriminated by the discriminating unit 3 as to whether it is genuine or not. , Denominations, abnormal running tickets, etc. are discriminated, and as a result of the discrimination, fake bills, abnormal running bills are sorted to the deposit reject port 4, and other genuine and unfit bills are transferred to the deposit stacker 7 via the storage route 6. The money is temporarily stored in the temporary pool 40. In addition, in the temporary deposit pool 40, the distribution fork 5
The banknotes whose front and back are aligned are stored by the sorting operation of 2. Then, after the banknotes have been conveyed from the deposit port 2 to the temporary deposit pool unit 40, and the deposit key is pressed by the depositor to confirm the deposit, the next operation is performed. The deposit storage processing ((2) deposit storage processing method A, (3) deposit storage processing method B) is performed.

(2) Deposit A Receipt Processing Method A (See FIG. 5) This deposit accommodating operation method A is performed between transactions and when none of the stackers 29 to 31 of the type of money is full. , The banknotes stored in the temporary deposit pool unit 40 in the cassette body 41 ((1) the correct bills and the unfit bills accumulated in the temporary deposit pool unit 40 in the deposit counting process) are paid out, and the payout route 8 and the payout route 1 , The first distribution route 10 and the deposit route 1 in order, and then sent to the discrimination unit 3, and the bills discriminated as genuine bills by the discrimination unit 3 are sequentially passed through the second distribution route 12 and the withdrawal route 13 The type stackers 29 to 31 are sorted according to denominations and stored, and the reject banknotes that are discriminated as unfit or running abnormality by the discriminating unit 3 are sequentially passed through the deposit route 1 and the reject route 15 to the first reject box. Put it in the box 16. In addition, this depositing and storing method A is based on the counting sensors 21C to 23C.
If it is detected that any one of the gold-type stackers 29 to 31 is full based on the count in
It will be canceled.

(3) Deposit receipt processing method B (see FIG. 6) In this receipt receipt processing method B, an instruction for the next transaction processing at the deposit port 2 is issued or each of the stackers 29 to 31 of each deposit type. This is a process performed when any one of them is full, and the banknotes in the deposit temporary pool section 40 in the deposit stacker 7 are dropped and stored in the storage section 44 below. It should be noted that the method B of the deposit storing processing is based on the instruction of the next transaction processing at the deposit port 2 during the method A of the deposit storing processing or based on the counting by the counting sensors 21C to 23C. Even if any one of the gold-type stackers 29 to 31 detects the stacker full, the stacker is immediately executed.

(4) Withdrawal process (see FIG. 7) This withdrawal process is a process performed when a withdrawal instruction is issued from the operation panel (not shown). The banknotes of the corresponding denomination are paid out one by one, transported via the dispensing route 13, and discharged to the dispensing port 35. It should be noted that the withdrawal determination unit 35 causes a traveling abnormality (near feed, double feed, skew), or
The reject banknotes that have been discriminated as different denominations (other than the withdrawal denomination) are reject routes 3 branched from the withdrawal route 13.
After passing 4 and 20, the second reject box 28 is stored. In addition, this withdrawal process ends based on the determination result of the withdrawal determination unit 32 if the banknotes corresponding to the withdrawal instruction amount are paid out from the money type stackers 29 to 31.

(5) Safe loading process (I) (see FIG. 8) This safe loading process (I) is, for example, a process performed before work, and is a detachable safe in which deposit bills are stored in the deposit stacker 7. It is designed to be performed after 101 is set in the machine body 100.

The bills are fed one by one to the gold route 13 and conveyed, and further, the bills are guided to the deposit route 1 via the collection route 37, and are discriminated by the discriminating unit 3 in the middle of the deposit route 1. Is stored in the storage unit 44 of the deposit stacker 7, while a traveling abnormal ticket, a different denomination ticket (for example, a bill from the 10,000-note stacker is being fed out,
If the 1,000 tickets are discriminated), the second ticket is stored in the second reject box 28 via the second distribution route 12, the withdrawal route 13, and the reject route 20. It should be noted that this safe collecting process is performed until all the money type stackers 29 to 31 are empty.

(8) Safe replenishing process (see FIG. 11) This safe replenishing process is performed between transactions, and the banknotes stored in the storage section 44 of the deposit stacker 7 are transferred to the stackers 29 to 29 of different denominations. 31 is the replenishing process, which is almost the same as the method A of the deposit storing process described above.
The safe replenishing process is slightly different from the deposit storing process method A, whereas the deposit storing process method A is adapted to pay out the banknotes in the deposit temporary pool section 40 of the deposit stacker 7. In the replenishment process, the bills in the storage section 44 of the deposit stacker 7 are fed out.

(9) Deposit Port Replenishment Process (I) (Refer to FIG. 12) This deposit port supplement process (I) supplements the deposit pool 2 of the deposit stacker 7 from the deposit port 2 performed between transactions. The process is the same as the deposit counting process of (1) described above, except that the banknotes that have overflowed from the unfit bills and the stackers 29 to 31 of the denominations are returned to the deposit reject port 4. That is, in this deposit port replenishment process, the unfit banknotes, the abnormal traveling banknotes, and the overflow banknotes of the stackers 29 to 31 of the denominations are sorted to the deposit reject port 4 based on the discrimination result of the discriminating unit 3, and other normal banknotes are The money is stored in the temporary deposit pool 40 of the deposit stacker 7 via the storage route 6. Then, after the banknotes have been conveyed from the deposit port 2 to the temporary deposit pool unit 40, and the deposit key is pressed by the depositor to confirm the deposit, the next operation is performed. (10) The deposit port replenishment process (II) is performed.

(10) Deposit Port Replenishment Process (II) (See FIG. 13) This deposit port supplement process (II) is performed by the deposit port supplement process (I) described above, and the deposit temporary pool section 4 of the deposit stacker 7 is used.
This is a process for replenishing the replenishment banknotes stored in 0 into the denomination-type stackers 29 to 31, and the operation is almost the same as the system A of the deposit storage process. However, in this deposit port replenishment process (II), unlike the deposit deposit process method A, the unsuccessful bill is returned to the deposit reject port 4 in the preceding deposit port supplement process (I). In the middle, the discriminating unit 3 does not discriminate the unfit banknotes. That is, it is possible to prevent the unfit banknotes from being mixed into the denomination type stackers 29 to 31 from the deposit temporary pool section 40 of the deposit stacker 7.

(11) Collective deposit return processing (see FIG. 14) This deposit collective return processing is performed from the deposit port 2 through the deposit temporary pool in (1) deposit counting process and (9) deposit replenishment process (II). This is a process performed when the deposit key does not confirm the deposit key (the cancel key is depressed) after the banknote has been conveyed to the section 40 and the deposit key does not press the confirmation key in the operation panel (not shown). The banknotes stored in the temporary deposit pool 40 are dispensed one by one and discharged to the deposit reject port 4 through the dispensing route 8 and the deposit route 1.

In the bill depositing / dispensing machine according to the first embodiment, which performs the above-described processing, the depositing / dispensing operation is shown in FIG. 5 as a deposit storage processing method A and in FIG. When a near-feed or double-feed running abnormal ticket and an unfit ticket are detected from the banknotes dispensed from the stacker 7, the running abnormal ticket and the unfit ticket are detected by the first reject box 16 of the deposit system N1. On the other hand, in the withdrawal process shown in FIG. 7, the banknotes withdrawn from the gold-type stackers 29 to 31 are discriminated from the abnormal running ticket and the different denomination (other than the withdrawal denomination). Since the bills thus converted are stored in the second reject box 28, the following operational effects can be obtained.

That is, the deposit stacker 7 in the deposit system N1.
When the banknotes are distributed into the money-type stackers 29 to 31 of the withdrawal system S, the reject banknotes detected by the discrimination unit 3 are deposited separately from the second reject box 28 of the withdrawal system S. First reject box 16 of system N1
Since the bills are stored in the deposit stacker 7 and the first reject box 16 before the distribution process,
If the withdrawal amount of the banknotes during the distribution process (the deposit amount (deposit amount) in the denomination-based stackers 29 to 31 stored in the storage unit 90) is subtracted, the deposit stacker 7 and the first reject box after the distribution process. It is possible to know the amount of money in the banknotes in 16.
