Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to an improvement of a safe used in a device having a depositing / dispensing function such as an automatic vending machine, a money dispensing device, and a money changer.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A vending machine, a money dispenser, a money changer, and other devices having a deposit / withdrawal function generally store a received coin or coin in a safe or store a reserve for dispensing. Equipped with a safe, when the safe is full or when the collection time comes, the safe is taken out and replaced to collect bills and the like in the safe. FIG. 3 is a block diagram showing a configuration of a conventional device having a deposit / withdrawal function, and an identification / counter device 3 for performing authenticity determination and counting of currency such as bills and coins received from an insertion slot 2 in the device body 1. And a deposit safe 4 for accepting money that has passed through the identification and counting device 3, a payout safe 5 accommodating money for payout, and the money drawn from the safe 5, and then pays it out to a payout exit 7. A counting device 6, a control circuit 8 for controlling the above-mentioned constituent units, a storage unit 9 for storing the transaction amount, deposit / withdrawal data, etc. on the main body of the device, and the storage contents of the storage unit 9 are displayed on a display unit or printed. It has a display device or a printer 10 for printing out.

By the way, at the time of exchanging a safe, a collecting staff collates the transaction amount performed on the main body side between the time of mounting the safe and the time of exchanging it with the kind, the number and the number of money in the safe. It will be. The transaction amount on the device body side and the balance data in the safe are held on the device body side.

However, in the above-mentioned conventional depositing / withdrawing apparatus, since the transaction amount on the apparatus body side and the balance data in the safe are all held on the apparatus body side, the collecting member is held on the apparatus body side at the time of collecting the safe. It is necessary to read the data and manage the read data, which makes the work of collecting the safe complicated. That is, the collation work is
Normally, the safe is transported to a place different from the place where the main unit is installed, and because it is done after collecting multiple, the collection staff manages not only the safe but also the read data (data output, storage during transportation) , And discarding after completion of collation) will be required, and improvement of this point was desired. Further, since it is necessary to provide a display unit for displaying data and a printing device for printing out on the apparatus main body side, there is a limit to cost reduction.

[0005]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION The present invention has been made in view of the above, and in a safe equipped in a device having a deposit / withdrawal function such as a vending machine, transaction data and balance data in the safe are stored in the main body of the device. An object of the present invention is to provide a depositing / withdrawing apparatus provided with a safe with a memory circuit, which can eliminate the complication of the collation work accompanying the safe collecting work that occurs due to holding.

[0006]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a cash depositing / withdrawing apparatus equipped with at least one exchangeable safe, wherein a storage circuit for holding data relating to transfer of money is built in the safe. In a depositing / withdrawing apparatus having two exchangeable safes, a storage circuit for holding data relating to the transfer of money is built in the safe, and an identification / counter device for identifying and counting the type of money deposited in the safe, authenticity, and A counting device that counts the money to be withdrawn from the safe, controls each counting device, calculates the balance in each safe based on the data relating to the deposit / withdrawal from each counting device, and sends the data to the storage circuit. And a control circuit for
As a memory constituting the storage circuit, an EEPROM,
It is characterized by using a RAM or an IC card.

[0007]

BEST MODE FOR CARRYING OUT THE INVENTION The present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the embodiments shown in the accompanying drawings. Vending machine, cash dispenser,
An identification and counting device for authenticating money, such as banknotes and coins, received from an insertion slot 12 in a device main body 11 of a device having a deposit / withdrawal function such as a money changer (hereinafter referred to as a deposit / withdrawal device), type determination, and counting. 13, a deposit safe 14 that accepts currency that has passed through the identification and counting device 13, a payout safe 15 that stores payout money, and the money that is withdrawn from the safe 15 and then pays to a payout exit 17. Counting device 1
6, a control circuit 18 for controlling the above-mentioned constituent units, a storage circuit 19 incorporated in the deposit safe 14 in order to store data regarding money received in the deposit safe 14, the transaction amount on the apparatus body side, and the like, It has a storage circuit 20 incorporated in the payout safe 15 in order to store payout data and the like from the payout safe 15. In addition, each safe 14, 15
Is configured to be detachably attached to the apparatus main body, and electrically and detachably connected to the connector 21a of the wiring 21 connecting the control circuit 18, the identification / counter 13, and the counter 16 by the connectors 19a and 20a. There is.

As the memory of the storage circuits 19 and 20, an EEPROM, a RAM, or an IC card can be used. Further, in the above embodiment, the deposit safe and the withdrawal safe are specially provided, but the deposit and withdrawal may be combined into one safe.

As shown in FIG. 2, the safes 14 and 15 removed from the apparatus main body 11 are carried to a counting place and used for counting by a counting device 22 arranged at the counting place.

The totaling device 22 includes an output means 23 such as a printer and a display device, a storage circuit 24 for storing the storage contents of the storage circuit on the safe side, and a control circuit 25, and a connector 22.
By connecting a to the connector of each safe, the stored contents are read from the storage circuit on the safe side, stored in the storage circuit 24 of the totaling device, and at the same time provided in the CP provided in the control circuit.
U is used for tabulation, and tabulated data or the like is output from the output means 23 as required.

As described above, according to the present invention, data relating to the amount of money deposited in or withdrawn from the safe, data such as the transaction amount on the apparatus main body side are held in the storage circuit of each safe side, and the storage circuit is Since it is equipped in the safe itself, if the safe is carried to the collation location and the stored data is displayed or printed, easy and reliable management can be performed.

[0012]

As described above, according to the present invention, a simple recording section is added to a safe that is detachably accommodated in the depositing / dispensing apparatus main body, and the storage circuit is controlled by the control circuit on the apparatus main body side. Since it is configured to be electrically connectable with the unit, there is no need to carry print data or the like other than the safe, and there is no fear of loss of print data. Further, the correspondence management of the safe and the data becomes unnecessary, which is extremely effective in reducing the work load.
