Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a money dispensing device used for preparing change, and particularly to an operating section for replenishing change.

In retail stores such as supermarkets and department stores,
Each sales floor is equipped with a cash register, and it is necessary to prepare change of a certain denomination and amount in each cash register every morning.

Also, even in the middle of the day, you often run out of change and need to exchange money. A device for mechanizing such change preparation is a money dispensing device, and the operator of each sales floor operates the money dispensing device as necessary to receive and take change. To improve a replenishment operation section for replenishing change when there is a shortage of change to be dispensed. The people who use the money dispensing device to withdraw change and exchange money are usually the operators of each sales floor who are not very familiar with operating the money dispensing device, so it is necessary to make the operation as simple as possible. However, since the operator who refills the change is only a specialized staff member, it is preferable to simplify the operation spring even if the operation becomes a little complicated. This is because there is a change in the denominations handled in the future.

This is because it can be easily countered without changing the bird wear.

The denomination button group 23 is easy to operate.
It consists of buttons for each denomination: 1,000-note button, blind button, and 50-piece button. The lt button group 24 is used as a key for specifying the quantity of a specified denomination. Further, the function key button group 25 includes a batch correction button, a staff change button, and a balance optional button.

FIG. 3 shows the spring 2 of the rear operating section 6. As shown in FIG.

In FIG. 3, an input display section 30 is provided for displaying numerical values input from a numeric keypad 32. Mode key 31 is preset, normal, and refill.

This key is used to set each mode such as release X, Z, and collection, and to switch the mode. The function keys 33 include a ticket button, a bar button, a puff button, which are keys for specifying the shape of the denomination, and other function key buttons. Here, the ticket button indicates banknotes, the bounty button indicates a set of 50 coins in a bar shape, and the rose indicates a single coin.Next, Fig. 4 shows the operation of the rear operation section 6. memory 12
The storage area provided in will be explained.

The horizontal length indicates the size of the memory and capacity 0
In this figure, a key code buffer 41 is a buffer that temporarily stores the code given to the pressed key of the rear operation unit 6, and a display buffer 42 is a buffer that stores the content to be displayed on the input display unit 30. It is. The number counter 43 is a buffer for storing the number of digits to be displayed, and the denomination buffer 44 is a buffer for storing the denomination code.

Now, when an operator operates the front operation section 7 to exchange money in one or more money dispensing devices, he first deposits desired bills into the bill receiving machine 11. Subsequently, each button of the denomination button group 23 and the quantity button group 24 of the operation spring μ shown in FIG. 2 is pressed alternately to input the desired banknotes or coins.

In this way, the front operation panel is provided with unique buttons for each denomination so that it can be easily operated by a large number of operators.

On the other hand, when replenishing money to this money release device, the third
The rear operation unit 6 shown in the figure is operated by, for example, specifying the denomination using the numeric keypad 32 and the shaped function keys 33 as shown in FIG. How to operate like this? lj! m, but the rear operation spring μ itself can be greatly simplified.

Next, the procedure for specifying the denomination of the change replenishment pool according to the present invention will be explained with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG. 6.7. The symbols attached to each part indicate each step. Immediately after starting replenishment, the program enters a numeric keypad reading block 70 shown in FIG. In the numeric keypad reading sag μm key 70, the number counter 43 is cleared in step 71, and it is checked whether any key has been pressed. (Step 72) If the numeric keypad 32 other than the clear key is depressed, it is checked in step 74 whether or not the number counter 43 is zero. Since the initial position counter 43 has been cleared, the process proceeds to step 75, where the display buffer 42 is cleared, and then it is checked whether or not the "00" key in the numeric keypad 32 has been pressed (step 76). If the input value is #olT~"9", the display buffer 42 is shifted one digit to the left in step 77, and the pressed numeric keypad code is entered at the lowest position. Set the value of the number counter to l
(step 78), and display the contents of the display buffer 42 on the input display section 30 (step 79).
If the key pressed in step 80 is the "00" key, the display buffer is shifted to the left by two digits, the value "00" is entered into the lower two digits (step 80), and the number counter 43 is The numerical value of is increased by 2. Then, in step 79, the contents of the display buffer 42 are displayed, and in step 72
Return to Repeat this operation until the display buffer 4
Denomination 1 to be added to 2 For example, '5000 for a 5,000 yen bill.
”. If the clear key is pressed, step 8
2, the display buffer 42 and the ltk counter 43 are cleared and the denomination can be set again (step 83). When the denomination setting is completed, as shown in FIG.
Press the shape key in the function keys 33 6 For example, if you press the "ticket" key after inputting "5000",
Returning to the main routine from the numeric keypad reading .mu.-chin 70, the process proceeds from step 60 to step 61 since the "ticket" key in the shape key is pressed, and the contents of the display buffer are checked. And the number where the ticket exists i.e. 5000
.

If either 1000.500 is in the display buffer 42, that number is the denomination of the note, so the denomination code is input into the denomination buffer 44. In the case of pressing the ``bar'' key and ``puff'' key, do the same in steps 62 and 63.
The respective denominations are determined and the denomination codes are input into the denomination buffer 44. Then, the numeric keypad reading subroutine 70 is entered again. Here, enter the number of denominations to be replenished using the numeric keypad.
Enter by 2. After that, when the "lung quantity key" in the function keys 33 is pressed, the keypad 32 is entered and the subroutine 70 returns to the main routine 9, step 64.
The suppression of the “quantity key” is checked.

Then, in step 65, the denomination and quantity to be replenished are printed out. In this way, one process for replenishing change in the money dispensing device is completed. If the key operation is not correct, the process jumps to step 66 and an error message is displayed.

As described above, according to the present invention, the denomination and number are specified using the numeric keypad, so only three types of shaped keys need be provided on the rear operation surface, greatly simplifying the key configuration. can do. Furthermore, even if the number of denominations to be handled increases in the future, it is only necessary to change the processing for checking the denominations, and there is no need to change the hardware itself, making the process easier.
