Description

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION (a) Industrial field of application The present invention relates to bank tellers who dispense banknotes to a teller to hand over to a customer in response to a customer's request for cash payment. This article relates to a payment device, and more specifically, relates to a control system for a bill dispensing mechanism in such a teller bill payment device.

(Ron) Conventional technology In general, cash dispensing devices for tellers, and bill dispensing devices in particular, have a plurality of bill cartridges corresponding to each denomination. The banknotes are checked for balance verification, etc., and if payment is possible, a payment command is given from the host computer to each banknote cartridge.

Banknotes of the denomination corresponding to the payment amount are sequentially sent out and stored in a temporary holding section provided in the collar of the feeding path. When all the banknotes equivalent to the payment amount are stored in the temporary holding section, the banknotes are taken out at once and sent to the bank.The exit gate is automatically opened and the teller takes them out. is handed over to a customer, but there are enough banknotes in the cartridge.
Because of this, I was in the middle of an IA dispatch case.
When the banknotes above cannot be sent out, the 12U banknote cutter fL
When this occurs, the operation of the banknote dispensing device stops and 2'L
Suppressing the subsequent feeding operation and cutting the banknote rt '2
The ``1-4'' display prompts the banknotes to be refilled in the cartridge, and Teller's father asks the clerk in charge to replenish the banknotes. banknotes are transferred to the collection box in bulk.

When the replenishment of banknotes is completed, the above-mentioned feeding operation is restarted.

(c) Problems to be solved by the Invention As mentioned above, in the conventional banknote dispensing device, if a banknote leakage occurs in the cartridge during the banknote feeding operation,
All the sending operations up to 7-L are canceled, and after the missing banknotes are replenished, the sending operations are repeated from the beginning, which is not desirable as all the customer counters are forced to wait for a long time. The present invention makes it possible to pay the required amount of banknotes without making the customer wait even if the cartridge runs out of banknotes, and also prevents the teller from accidentally paying banknotes with insufficient amount. .

B) Embodiment FIG. 1 is a block diagram showing a banking system including a banknote dispensing device in which the present invention can be implemented.

A host computer 1 installed at the main branch of the bank stores the deposit ledger of customers who have accounts at the bank, and sends the deposit ledger from the keyboard 4 via the controller 2 and communication line 6 installed at the branch. In response to a request for cash payment for an incoming customer, the customer's bank account balance is checked and, if payment is available, a payment instruction is sent to the contact point 1 call 2. , the controller 2 displays the denomination and number of denominations on the display 5 according to the amount to be paid. The teller can change the combination of denomination and number of coins according to the customer's wishes. In this way, δ′n is determined
Each denomination and top 2 rizono 1. The number of bills is sent from the controller 2 to the banknote payment device 6 and the coin payment device 7 according to a command.
It is widely known. Since the payment device can dispense a specified amount of cash using a command, the teller can hand over the dispensed cash to the customer without having to re-count it.

2nd (8) is indicated in - The entire bill feeding route in the bill payment device B is conceptually shown 71 The bill payment device 6 has four bill cartridges, and each cartridge has an arbitrary It is possible to store up to a predetermined number (20'00) of banknotes of different denominations. For example, force-tringe 3 has a million-yen hole,
Cartridge 9 has a 5,000 yen bill, cartridge 10.11
It can store 1,000 yen bills and 500 yen bills. Also, five i
Instead of the cartridge for 5'lIl bills, cartridges for thousand yen bills or million yen holes, which are frequently paid, may be added, and the combination of cartridges for each denomination can be set arbitrarily. Each cartridge is provided with a banknote delivery mechanism 12, and
1, which operates to send out a specified number of banknotes;
The banknotes sent out from each cartridge pass through a feeding path 14 of a belt or roller and are stored in a temporary holding section 15, where they are stored. All the banknotes to be paid are sent out from the IJ and the sensor 1 installed on the feeding path 12
If an error condition such as double stacked banknotes or torn 1D banknotes is detected by 6, the banknotes in the temporary holding section 15 are sent all at once to the takeout port 17. If the detection type γ is detected, all the banknotes in the temporary holding section 15 are transferred to the collection box 18, and the banknote discharging operation for the transaction is repeated again. Further, a bill-out detection device 13 is provided corresponding to each cartridge, and when a bill-out detection device 13 is detected by the detection devices rL, 7fL, etc., the feeding operation in the corresponding cartridge is immediately stopped.

FIG. 3 shows the structure of the outlet 17. Although the gate 61 is shown in the open state in the figure, it is usually in the vertical force direction [21J] and in the closed state.
When a banknote is placed on the banknote receiving plate 32 at the takeout port from the temporary storage section, the belt 33 is rotated by the motor (not shown) in the opposite direction of the drive shaft 64.
The gate 51 f's opens as shown, so that the teller can take out the banknotes at 1 and hand them to the customer. The gate 31 is returned to the closed state by the spring 65 which receives the driving force from the bell l-36'7)1. Also, even if the belt 66 is not driven even though the banknotes have been fed through the exit reed,
Teller resisted the spring 65 and made one move, "1-1, 61.
You can open it and take out the banknotes, or you can use a push button etc.
By operating the bell 1-33i (not "JfL" shown in the figure) and driving the bell 1-33i, the banknotes may be taken out with a full gate opening force.

The present invention can be implemented in a banknote dispensing device as described above.

Now, in response to a command from the controller 2, the banknote payment device 6 sends 7 pieces of 10,000 yen to the 10,000 yen hole, 2 pieces of 5,000 yen bills, 18 pieces of 1,000 yen bills, and 4 pieces of 5000 yen bills. Assume that the banknote dispensing device 6 receives a request to dispense 7 banknotes from the cartridge 8 for 10,000 yen banknotes into the temporary storage unit 1.
6, then the car for the 5,000 yen bill) 1/Nji 9
Two banknotes are sent out to the temporary storage section 13. Furthermore, it is seen that 18 banknotes have started to be ejected from cartridge 101 for 1,000 yen banknotes, but for example, 15 banknotes have been fed out.
If the banknotes run out in 3, the banknote payment device will issue -t rt
When all of the banknotes are detected, the feeding operation from the cartridge 1o is stopped, and it is indicated that the cartridge 1o has run out of banknotes.
, 2 is displayed. However, the banknote sending operation does not end, and four banknotes are sent to the temporary holding section 16 from the next cartridge 11 for the 500 yen note. When all the cartridges have been discharged in this way, the temporary holding place 1
3. The accumulated banknotes t'' are collectively ejected to the ejection port 15, but the banknote cut n in the cartridge 1o is detected σ.
The gate cannot be opened because there is only one gate. The banknote payment device 5 receives information 1 representing the denomination and number of banknotes actually sent out.
1" Chika 1' - Ridge 8 Sword) et al. 7 pieces, Power - Tringe 9
2 banknotes, 15 banknotes from the cartridge 1-ridge 1G, and 4 banknotes from the cartridge 11 are sent out, and a signal indicating 7' is sent to the controller 2. The controller 2 compares and checks the denominations to be paid and the number of 7-L bills with the actual number of 4:il+ and σr bills sent out, and when it detects that three 1,000 yen bills are insufficient to send out, A command is issued to display the deficient denomination and number of denominations on the display 5. Then, the teller opens the gate with his own hands and throws out the banknotes and displays 5.
All you have to do is take out the missing banknotes shown in step 2 from the safe, add them together, and hand them to the customer.

The operations described above are controlled by a microprocessor in bill dispensing device B, and FIG. 4 is a general flowchart showing the steps of this operation.

According to the present invention, when a banknote runs out, the gate at the ejection port automatically opens, so the teller can easily lose the 1% f of the banknote. It is possible to completely prevent the mistake of handing over all the banknotes with insufficient amount to the customer as they are.
