Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Subject of the Invention] The present invention relates to a recycle-type banknote handling device, and in particular, in a device that handles deposits and withdrawals, such as an automatic teller machine in banking business, the present invention relates to a recycling-type banknote handling device that handles deposits and withdrawals. This invention relates to a device that automatically recycles banknotes for withdrawal.

[Background of the invention]

Conventionally, so-called recycle-type bill handling devices that automatically recycle banknotes input into the device for withdrawal have been used to store banknotes in storage boxes for each denomination, such as a 10,000-yen bill storage box and a 1,000-yen note storage box. Replenishment timing '74r: When the denomination storage box is empty at the end of the withdrawal transaction, or when it is detected that the amount remaining is low as it is below the standard, the denomination storage box is refilled from the safe of deposited banknotes that had been stored up to that point. I was trying to replenish the banknotes of Daikei at once until it was full. Banknotes can be sorted and stored by denomination from empty or low to full! Because the banknotes were being replenished, it took a relatively long time to replenish the banknotes.
If the banknote replenishment condition occurs during busy hours when customers are lining up, the waiting time for the first customers becomes long, which poses a problem in the operation of the device.

Next, the control 1 operation according to the present invention will be explained using FIGS. 1 and 2.

In FIG. 2, a reply message from a host device is decoded by a reply message decoder 22, and output signals 200, 201, 202 are output depending on the content of the message.
．． 20! l becomes the true value. The above signals correspond to instructions for permitting deposit transactions, prohibiting deposit transactions, permitting withdrawal transactions, and permitting withdrawal transactions, respectively.

First, the case of deposit transaction will be explained.

When deposited banknotes are inserted into the banknote receiving box 2, the completed banknote insertion detection circuit 28 detects the completion of banknote insertion, and the received banknote counting command circuit 29 is activated. After the deposited banknotes are transferred to the banknote separation box 6, they are separated one by one and fed out onto a conveyance path. When deposited banknotes pass through the banknote validation box 4, the banknote validation circuit 61 performs authenticity and denomination determination, and as a result, the 10,000-yen and 1,000-yen banknotes that can be recycled are sorted out at the gate 12 and sent to the banknote recycling box. On the other hand, worn-out 10,000 yen notes, 1,000 yen notes that cannot be recycled, and other denominations of banknotes that are approved for deposit handling are sorted at a gate 11 and placed in a temporary stacker 6 for banknote cassettes. They are stored by activating the swivel capture command circuits 62 and j56, respectively. In addition, the deposited banknotes other than those mentioned above are returned to the banknote receiving box 2 via the transport game) 16, 12.11. When the operation of all the deposited banknotes q is completed, the output signal of the deposited banknote counting completion detection circuit 60 becomes the true value. At this time, if the customer does not approve the amount of cash inserted, that is, if a cancellation operation is performed, the output signal of the AND circuit 62 becomes the true value, and the bill return command circuit 36 is sent via the OR circuit 96. When activated, the deposited banknotes held in each temporary stacker are returned to the banknote receiving box 2 via the transport gates i3, 12.11Y. If approved, the output signal from the AND circuit becomes the true value, and the make-up message created by the make-up message creation circuit 26 via the JR circuit 90 is gated by the sum circuit 60 and sent to the sending/receiving buffer 21. By setting this, a makeshift message is sent to the host device.

As a result of decoding the reply message received from the host device, if the deposit transaction is approved, the output signal 200 of the reply message decoder 22 becomes the true value, and the banknote storage command circuit 65 is activated via the OFL circuit 92. The deposited banknotes held in the temporary stackers 8 and 6 are stored in the banknote return box 7 and the banknote cassette 5, and one deposit transaction is completed. On the other hand, if the deposit transaction is prohibited by the host device, the output signal 201 of the response message decoder 22 becomes the true value, the bill return command circuit 36 is activated via the OR circuit 93, and the banknote return command circuit 36 is activated to send the banknotes to each temporary stacker. The deposited banknotes held are transferred to the transport gates 13, 12. Il'a-
'The banknotes are returned to the banknote receiving box 2 via '.

Next, the case of withdrawal transaction will be explained.

When all the manual operations necessary for a withdrawal transaction are completed, the output signal of the withdrawal transaction operation photon detection circuit 25 becomes the true value, and the output signal of the withdrawal transaction operation photon detection circuit 25 becomes the true value, and the answer message 'aj created by the response message creation circuit 23 via the OR circuit 904 is output by the AND circuit 6D. By gated and setting it in the transmission/reception buffer 21, a makeshift message is transmitted to the higher-level device.

As a result of decoding the response message received from the host device, if the withdrawal transaction is permitted, the output signal 202 of the response message decoder 22 becomes the true value, and the output signals of the withdrawal order designation circuits 5o and 51 change to the state. Accordingly, the operation of feeding out banknotes from the banknote return box 7 or the banknote storage boxes 9 and 1o by denomination is started.

In the 10,000 yen note withdrawal order designation circuit 50, set the switch to Mo.
- When connected to Ml, the output signal of the circuit becomes a value, which specifies withdrawal from the banknote recycling box, and the switch is turned to MO-M2.
The circuit is constructed in such a way that when connected to the bank, the output signal of the circuit becomes a false value and the withdrawal from the 10,000-ryo bill storage box 9 is designated.

Similarly, in the 1,000 yen bill withdrawal order designation circuit 51, when the switch is connected to so-81, the output signal of the circuit becomes the true value and the withdrawal from the bill recycling box 7 is designated, and the switch y
The circuit is configured so that when connected to So-82, the output signal of the circuit becomes a false value and the withdrawal from the thousand yen bill storage box 10 is designated. For example, as shown in Figure 2, switch '
When connected to Y1'vlO-Ml, the output/signal of the ten thousand yen note withdrawal order designation circuit 50 becomes the true value, and the AND circuit 70 passes through the AND circuit 66 and the OR circuit 94 By gating the condition that a yen bill is specified and the temporary stacker 8 or 6 is not full, the bill recycling box payout command circuit 38 is activated. When the switch is connected to MO-M2, the output signal of the 10,000 yen bill withdrawal order designation circuit 50 becomes a false value, and the inverter circuit 10n
, When there is an instruction to count 10,000 yen notes through the M-sum circuit 71 via the AND circuit 67, and by gating the condition that the temporary stacker 8 or 6 is not full, the 10,000 yen note storage box delivery command circuit 40 is activated. be done. The same applies to thousand yen notes.

When the banknotes fed out from each banknote storage box as described above pass through the discrimination box 4, if there is an instruction to count 10,000 yen and the banknote is a 10,000 yen note, the 10,000 yen note gate command circuit 45 is activated. If there is an instruction to count 1,000 yen and the bill is a 1,000 yen bill, the 1,000 yen bill gate command circuit 46 is activated, and the bill of the denomination specified for withdrawal is sent to the bill receiving box 2. Also,
If there is no instruction to count 1,000 yen notes and the banknote is a 10,000 yen note, the 10,000 yen note storage box import command circuit 47 is activated and the bill is stored in the 10,000 yen note storage box 9, and there is no instruction to count 1,000 yen notes. , and if it is a 1,000 yen note, the 1,000 yen note storage box import command circuit 4
8 is activated and the banknote is stored in the thousand yen note storage box 10.

By the above-described operation, banknotes can be simultaneously supplied to the ten thousand yen note storage box 9 and the one thousand yen note storage box 10 at the time of the withdrawal counting operation from the recycling box 7. Note that banknote storage box 9-1 by denomination:
or 10 is full, the -AND circuit 81 or 82 becomes the true value, the output signal of the AND circuit 86 becomes the true value,
The reflux box temporary stacker take-in command circuit 32 is activated via the OR circuit 98, and the sample is stored in the temporary stacker 8.

When the temporary stacker 8 becomes full, the output signal of the temporary stacker full detection circuit 39 becomes the true value, and the AND circuit 65 gates the condition that the conveying operation is stopped, and activates the banknote storage command circuit 35 to detect that the temporary stacker is full. The banknotes in the temporary stacker 8 are stored again in the banknote return box 7. - When the storage operation is completed, the temporary stacker 8 is no longer full, so the output signal of the temporary stacker full detection circuit 39 becomes a false value, and the output signal of the leg circuit 83 becomes a true value via the inverter circuit 106. The temporary stacker retrieval command circuit 52 for the recirculation box is activated, and the banknotes other than the denomination for which the withdrawal instruction is issued are
It is temporarily stored in the stacker 8 again.

When the prescribed withdrawal counting operation is completed as described above,
The output signal of the withdrawal counting completion detection circuit 41 becomes the true value and becomes 0.
The deposit/withdrawal opening command circuit 44 is activated via the output circuit 96 and the AND circuit 74, and the withdrawn banknotes in the bill receiving box 2 are discharged from the cash withdrawal section 1. When the ejected banknote is removed, the output signal of the removal detection circuit 42 becomes a true value, and the output signal of the AND circuit 74 becomes a false value via the inverter circuit 107, and the deposit/withdrawal window is closed and one withdrawal transaction is completed. ends. The banknotes held in the temporary stacker 8 are processed by activating the banknote storage command circuit 56 via the OR circuit 92 when all the banknotes have been counted.
The banknotes are stored in the banknote return box 7 again.

On the other hand, if the response message decoding result indicates that the withdrawal transaction is prohibited, the output signal 203 of the response message decoder 22 becomes the true value, the medium return command circuit 34 is activated, and all media used in the transaction are returned. The withdrawal transaction will then be terminated.

〔Effect of the invention〕

As explained above, according to the present invention, during the dispensing process in which bills are directly conveyed from the second storage box (bill recycling box) to the cash withdrawal department, bills of denominations other than those specified for withdrawal are They are simultaneously stored (supplied) in the first storage box (denomination-specific banknote storage box), and there is no special process for supplying recirculated banknotes to the denomination-specific banknote storage box, so the transaction time is reduced. Can be shortened. In particular, 10,000 yen notes with a high usage rate should be withdrawn from the reflux box first, and when the reflux box is full, the 10,000 yen notes should be withdrawn from the 10,000 yen note storage box. Tickets can be withdrawn from the 1,000 yen bill storage box first, and depending on the area where the cash transaction device is installed, the order of withdrawal is either from the recycling box first, or from the banknote storage box by denomination. By arbitrarily specifying the order in which funds are to be withdrawn first, the transaction time can be further shortened.
