DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (1) Technical Field of the Invention This invention relates to a paper sheet storage device for sorting and storing paper sheets such as an automatic teller machine or the like.

(2) Tech*o'w In order to streamline the counter operations at Jing Bank Road, an automatic deposit machine that performs deposit and payment operations without the intervention of staff or automatically distinguishes and counts bundles of banknotes inserted one by one. A banknote accommodating device is used that classifies and stores banknotes into O safes by type.

(3) Prior Art and Problems An example of such a banknote accommodating device is shown in FIG. The input section IK is provided with a banknote input slot 2 and a take-in roller 3, and the input banknotes are taken one by one into the apparatus along a conveyance path 5 by a take-in mechanism 23. The banknotes moving on the conveyance path 5 are checked in the checking section 4 for authenticity, type 111, and front and back sides. Based on the discrimination result, if the banknote is a fake banknote, the gate 6 is driven to store the banknote in the reject box 7. In the case of genuine banknotes, the gate 6 does not operate, and the banknotes pass through the reset gate 6 and are stored along the conveyance path 5 in a predetermined banknote according to the type of banknote among the four banknote storage boxes 13. It is transported to the position of the storage box 13. When the banknote is on the front side, the first gate 8 is driven and the banknote is put into the front side ott pool box 1 box 0, and when the banknote is on the back side, the banknote is passed through without driving the first gate 8. Then, the second gate 9 is driven, the front and back sides of the banknotes are reversed, and the banknotes are taken into the pool box 10.

It should be noted that it is not necessary to provide the second gate 9 to the pool box 10 on the final banknote storage box 13.The nine sheets of paper are transported until they are empty, and all of the nine papers are turned inside out and stored in the final pool box 10. When all the banknotes in the bundle of banknotes inputted into the input unit 1 are discriminated, classified according to type, and stored in a predetermined pool box 1O, and the gold II is S1g, the bottom plate 11 of each pool box 1o is moved by the arrow M0. The bottom plate 1 of the open pool 1110
The banknotes placed on the banknote 1 fall into the banknote storage box 13 and are stored there.

The pool box 10 of such a bill storage device has a limit on the number of bills it can accommodate, and when more bills than this limit are inserted into the input section IK, one pool box 10 is -jI! When the number of bills is reached, charging is temporarily stopped, the bills in the pool box 10 are collected, and then the bills are stored in the pool box again. Therefore, if there is a discrepancy in the amount of banknotes input, the banknotes in the pool box are collected during the process, so it is not possible to determine at what stage an error occurred, and all banknotes must be counted again.

(4) Purpose of the Invention The present invention is an improvement to the above point, and when more than the limit number of banknotes is put into one pool box, the operation of the device is stopped midway and the banknotes are collected. To provide a banknote accommodating device capable of continuously accommodating banknotes without any interruption.

(5) Structure of the invention Therefore, in the present invention, when a predetermined limited number of paper sheets is stored in a 1-piece paper sheet storage box (pool box), an additional 0 paper sheets of the same type as the 0-piece paper sheet storage box (pool box) is stored. A storage box for over 7D- for storing paper sheets is provided, and the drive circuit of the switching gate for introducing paper sheets into the storage box for over 7P is discriminated by the above-mentioned discrimination section. It is connected to a counter circuit and manual switch for counting the number of sheets.

(6) Examples of the invention FIG. 2 is a diagram II of the banknote accommodating device according to the present invention.

After leaving the discrimination section 4, move the banknote at a suitable position along the banknote transport path 6 (
In this example, an overflow box 19 is provided at the direction change drive (2200 position), and an overflow box 19 is provided with an overflow 7a switching gate 18 for introducing banknotes. FIG. 2 shows an example of Oa*O for driving this over 7o switching gear 18. There are 04 counter circuits 24a to 2 in order to separately count the four types of banknotes discriminated by the banknote discrimination device 22#iζζ in the discrimination section 4.

, c, and d are sent to each counter circuit 241-2411K. Jin0 paper Ww different signals a, b, c.

d further includes a counterfeit banknote 41e and a front/back discrimination signal f.
The signal is configured to be sent to the gate drive circuit 23 at the same time. The output side of each of the counter circuits 248 to 24d is connected to an OS* circuit 27 for converting the number of banknotes counted by each counter circuit into a monetary amount and totaling the total amount, and the HIO totaling circuit 27 is further connected to a display 28 for inputting the banknotes. The total amount of banknotes issued will be displayed. The output side of each counter circuit 241 to 24d is further connected to an overflow gate drive circuit 26 via a logic circuit 25. This logic circuit 25 is for driving the overflow gate drive circuit 26 when any one of the counter circuits 241 to 24d counts a predetermined number of zero sheets corresponding to the limited number of pool boxes accommodated. A manual switch 29 is further connected to the overflow gate drive circuit 26, so that the overflow gate 1g can be operated regardless of the signal from the counter circuit.
