BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a plurality of inspecting machines for inspecting paper sheets, an excluding ticket processing machine for processing and collating rejected tickets from these inspecting machines, and an inspecting machine and an excluded ticket processing machine. The present invention relates to a paper sheet processing system configured by a centralized control console that integrates the whole.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A plurality of inspecting machines for inspecting paper sheets, an excluding ticket processing machine for processing and collating rejected tickets from these inspecting machines, and a centralized control for integrating the entire inspecting machine and the rejected ticket processing machine. A paper sheet processing system composed of a desk has been put into practical use.

In such a system, when the collation by the rejected ticket of the inspecting machine is batch-processed, when a non-collation occurs, there is a small amount of accumulated information as supporting data.
The small bundle accumulation information is summarized in a list of all the good tickets, the number of defective tickets, and the number of reject factors processed in small bundles.

[0004] For example, the bundle number 1 is 98 good sheets, 2 defective sheets, and 100 sheets in total, and no rejected sheets have occurred. The small number 2 means 95 good tickets, 1 bad ticket, and 4 cases in which inspection is excluded. If one inspection is considered as 1 ticket, the total is 100. Small number 13
Is a case where there were not 100 good tickets, bad tickets and rejected tickets (mismatch occurred).
Has been repeated. However, it was not clear whether this stacking was made up of two tickets or three tickets, and it was impossible to explain the non-matching. Therefore, there is a drawback in that it is not possible to provide information on the number of rejected tickets for estimating the number of rejected tickets.

[0005]

As described above, the drawback of not being able to provide information on rejected tickets for determining the number of rejected tickets is eliminated, and it is possible to estimate the number of rejected tickets. An object of the present invention is to provide a paper sheet processing system that can newly store information and can easily retrieve this sheet number estimation information as needed.

.. 89g is composed of 1 byte (8 bits), and as shown in FIG. 15, H1, H2 ... H7 from the least significant bit LSB to the upper bits.
Is assigned. For example, the first line is H1 to H7
When all the detection sensors 89a, ..., 89g are judged to be one sheet, "1" is set. If only H4 on the fourth line is the two-sheet determination, only that portion is set to "1".

Further, the comprehensive judgment unit 39 is supplied with the detection results from the respective detection units within a predetermined time after the passage of the ticket, and the detection result indicates whether the ticket is a rejected ticket or a defective ticket.
It is to judge whether it is a good ticket. In this judgment logic, the priority order is decided in the order of "rejected ticket judgment> bad ticket judgment> good ticket judgment". Is judged to be a good ticket, otherwise is judged to be a bad ticket, and leaf information as a result of the judgment is output to the control unit 31.

This leaf information is, as shown in FIG. 16, a ticket number, a judgment result, and (A) overlapping as a judgment factor,
It consists of (B) catch-up, (C) skew, slide, (D) inspection exclusion, and search number. The information of (A) to (D) is set to "1" when the factor occurs. It is like this.

Further, the control section 31 controls the gate control section 45 in accordance with the result of the determination so that the branch section 7
4 and 77 are driven to be stacked at a stacking destination corresponding to the above determination result.

The control unit 31 totalizes this leaf information for each small bundle (100 sheets) of a processing unit and creates small bundle information as shown in FIG. The small bundle information includes the small bundle number, (F) the number of good tickets, (U
F) number of shreds, (F + UF) inspection machine 4a (4b,
4c) the total number of processed sheets, (A) the number of overlapping sheets,
(B) catch-up number, (C) skew, slide number,
(D) It is composed of the number of rejected inspections and the search number.

The ticket exclusion information is (A) the number of sheets stacked, (B) the number of catchups, (C) the skew, the number of slides, (D) the number of rejected inspections, and the search number. Also,
The control unit 31 sends this small bundle information to the main control unit 6 of the centralized control console 6.
It outputs to 1.

The main control section 61 of the centralized control console 6 accumulates the small bundle information for each inspecting machine 4a, ... In the table 64a of the memory 64 to create small bundle storage information as shown in FIG. ing.

The above is the description up to the generation of the small bundle storage information, and FIG. 19 shows a flowchart thereof. The feature of this time is to search the ticket type area judgment information and the thickness information as small bundle number estimation information for estimating (confirming) the number of tickets as necessary by providing a search number in the small bundle storage information. There is a point that made it possible.

As a specific example of the ticket type area determination information and the thickness information, consider a case where a ticket as shown in FIGS. 20 (a) and 21 (a) (b) is determined. This is because two tickets overlap each other over half the area, and the preceding ticket is taped, and some of the subsequent tickets have holes. According to the ticket type area determination of such a ticket, the areas 1, 3, and 4 are determined to be the front surface forward direction “D1FF” of the ticket A, but the area 2 has the tape type determination because the tape is present. It is determined to be “NG”.

The detection result of the bill type in this case is as shown in FIG. On the other hand, the detection result of the thickness detection is shown as "1" since each of the detection sensors 89a, ... 89g determines one sheet from the first line to the seventh line, as shown in (c) of FIG. Has been done, and the eighth, ninth, tenth, twelve, one
Since there are two tickets up to the 3rd and 14th lines, "2" is shown. In addition, since the tape is attached to the 11th line, the detection sensors 89d to 89f judge three sheets,
It is shown as "3". Similarly, in the latter half portion, "1" is shown for one sheet and "0" is shown for a holed portion.

Small piece number estimation information as small piece number confirmation information from these data is stored in a format in the small piece number estimation information table 32a in the memory 32 with a search number. A part of the data is shown in FIG.

When a mismatch as in the example described at the beginning occurs from these data, the search number is checked from the small accumulated information displayed on the display unit 63 of the centralized control console 6 using this mismatch number as a key. Then, by designating from the search number with the operation unit 62 of the centralized control console 6, the request signal of the small number of sheets estimation information is sent together with the search number, and the control unit 3 of the inspecting machine 4a, ....
It is output to 1. As a result, the control unit 31 of each inspecting machine 4a, ...
The search number stored in the table is compared with the requested search number, and if there is a matching search number, the small number estimation information corresponding to the search number is calculated as the small number estimation information table 32a.
Read out and output to the central control console 6. This allows
The main control unit 61 of the centralized control console 6 displays the supplied small number estimation information on the display unit 63. The number of tickets can be estimated (confirmed) from the displayed contents.

That is, in the present example, the exclusion factor data as shown in FIG. 23 is displayed, the two tickets overlap each other over half the area, and the preceding ticket is pasted with a tape and the succeeding ticket is followed. It is possible to assume that some of the tickets have holes, and it can be determined that the number of tickets is two. Therefore, in this case, the total number of processed sheets of the inspecting machine 4a is clearly 97, and the number of rejected sheets is 2, which is 99 in total, which clearly proves that one sheet is insufficient.

As described above, an inspection machine for inspecting a good ticket, a defective ticket, and a rejected ticket of a predetermined number of tickets, and a rejected ticket from the inspector and a check result from the inspector are obtained. In the ticket processing system that is configured by a centralized control console that integrates the reject ticket processing machine that performs matching according to the above, and the above-described inspecting machine and the above-described reject ticket processing machine, the inspecting machine removes the ticket that is rejected by the inspection. When the judgment is made, the small number of pieces of rejected ticket confirmation information (small piece number estimation information) is provided as detailed data for the rejected ticket.

Further, when a mismatch is generated in the rejected ticket processing device, the number of rejected tickets can be determined by checking the rejected ticket detailed data retrieved by the retrieval number as the supporting data, which is highly reliable. A ticket processing device having a matching function can be provided.

That is, when an rejected ticket whose number of tickets cannot be determined occurs, such as stacking or catching up tickets,
By designating the search number of the small bundle information, it becomes possible to know the thickness information and the ticket type information, and the state of the excluded ticket can be estimated based on these information, and the number of sheets can be estimated.

Thus, the small number of pieces of rejected ticket confirmation information (small number of pieces estimation information) capable of confirming the number of rejected tickets is newly stored, and the small number of pieces confirmation information of the excluded ticket can be easily retrieved as necessary.

That is, if there is information that can confirm the number of rejected tickets with high accuracy when the counting mismatch occurs based on the rejected ticket small number confirmation information, the reason for supporting the non-matching can be taken. As a result, reliability can be improved.

[0052]

As described above, it is possible to provide a ticket processing system in which information that can estimate the number of rejected tickets is newly stored and that this information can be easily searched when necessary.
