【Example】

 Embodiments of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. FIG. 1 is a schematic configuration diagram when the valuable resource processing device is an automatic ticket vending machine.

Like the well-known automatic ticket vending machine, the main body 1 includes a change inspection unit 2 for detecting the authenticity of money such as coins and bills (only bills are disclosed in the example shown in the figure), and a change. When a change occurs, the change unit 3 for discharging change to the discharge port a and the selection button (not shown) are pressed, and the amount of money inserted into the main body 1 corresponds to the pressed selection button. It has a ticket issuing unit 4 which discharges the ticket to the outlet a when satisfying the fare, and a controller 5 formed by a microcomputer which controls each unit in a centralized manner.

In FIG. 1, reference numeral 6 denotes a video camera, which is provided so that the user of the main body 1 can be photographed. Reference numeral 7 denotes a communication control unit, which is configured to notify the management center when a counterfeit product is inserted into the main body 1.

FIG. 2 is a detailed view of the coin inspection unit 2, which is a coin inspection unit 2a for discriminating the authenticity of the banknotes B and a recovery for collecting when the coin inspection unit 2a judges the banknotes B to be genuine. There are provided a so-called safe 2b and a holding section 2c for holding a banknote B inserted by the money section 2a with a probability of not less than a predetermined value without returning it to the user.

FIG. 3 shows an example of the judgment rank of the public inspection department 2a. The public inspection unit 2a determines authenticity by determining a plurality of check items such as the shape of a bill, as in the well-known public inspection unit.

In FIG. 3, the judgment rank A is, for example, a case where all the check items are cleared and it is judged that the bill is 100% genuine, and the judgment rank B has a probability of 90 to 100 as a genuine bill. 99 (%), C has a probability of 70-90 (%), D has a probability of 1-69 (%), and E has a probability of 0 (%) (probability of being a counterfeit 100%). It has been decided.

Among the above judgment ranks, A performs a predetermined ticket issuing process, and judgment ranks B to D return the inserted bill D to the user. Of course, in this case, ticketing processing is not performed. It should be noted that, based on these determination results, the user may be instructed to insert the bill D in the opposite direction to the previous one and re-insert the bill.

In the case of the judgment rank E, the controller 5 drives the camera 6 to record the user, and also notifies the management center that the counterfeit product has been put in, via the communication control unit 7. Further, the inserted bills are held in the holding unit 2c and are not returned to the user. Of course, in this case, the ticket issuing process is not performed.

As described above, in the apparatus of this embodiment, only when it is determined that the inserted banknote B is a perfect counterfeit, the camera 6 captures an image, reports the message, and performs a retention process. Therefore, for example, when genuine banknotes are used up and some check items cannot be cleared, they are excluded. In other words, it does not cause any inconvenience to users of genuine banknotes.

In the above-described embodiment, the determination rank E is set to 0% as the probability of genuineness. However, for example, if a specific check item among a plurality of check items cannot be cleared, it is determined as a complete counterfeit product. You may do it. Therefore, such a determination is also included in the "when it is determined as a counterfeit with a probability higher than a predetermined value" of the present invention.

Further, in the above-mentioned embodiment, the valuables are bills, but they may be coins or SF cards. Further, the valuable resource processing device may be an automatic settlement machine, a money changer, an ATM, or the like, instead of the automatic ticket vending machine.
