Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to a plurality of banknotes, such as an automatic teller machine or an automatic teller machine that automatically deposits and withdraws money, placed in each branch of a bank, etc. Regarding a banknote processing system that manages automatic handling machines in groups (so that the banknotes can be recycled and used by each other), in particular, it is possible to count and distribute banknotes from each automatic banknote handling machine from a central machine. The present invention relates to a banknote processing system.

[Technical use of the invention and its problems]

In recent years, various types of automation have progressed at banks, etc., and not only the main branch of banks but also each branch has been mechanized. A-l
Hetai-1tsuf"r-nsmachine: Ai"M) and automatic payment 1 (i (Kiki Tsun J dispenser-;
Cf)) and automatic banknote handling machines such as currency exchange machines have been installed, allowing customers to automatically withdraw or deposit banknotes (62) using transaction media such as cards or passbooks. It is now possible to operate the banknote handling machines for extended periods even after the bank's business hours have closed. The number of machines installed at many branches is expected to increase in the double digits, and it is predicted that the number of machines installed will continue to increase in the future.Moreover, recently, deposited banknotes are circulated inside the aircraft and withdrawn directly. An automatic cash deposit/withdrawal machine in the form of a circular cycle has been developed and put into practical use, and an A-line cash machine (01'M) exclusively for bank employees (pullers) has also been installed.

By the way, as mentioned above (even with advances in mechanization, each automatic banknote handling machine operates independently, and they are not managed and operated together. Therefore, in fact, each automatic banknote handling machine There are large and small differences in the number of depositors who make withdrawals, and the difference varies depending on the day, and also depends on the environmental fee of Ki V Tsuji 7.1ll-No. There were aircraft with a lot of money and aircraft with a small amount of money, and there was a problem in which during operation, the banknotes on board would spill over or overflow, resulting in operational shutdowns and 4t (). In addition, in order to prevent such problems from occurring, bank employees must constantly manage the banknotes, which would result in an increase in staff. Even though there was a shortage, the other machine had an excess of banknotes (-, ), which made it difficult to manage funds effectively.

Therefore, in recent years, with the increase in the number of automatic banknote handling machines mentioned above, it has become possible to improve the efficiency of operating funds by managing the four types of automatic banknote handling machines in the middle of a suitable group (') and reusing the banknotes in these machines. There has been an increasing demand for a group recycling system that aims to reduce waste.

However, in order to realize this system, it was necessary to centrally manage operating funds so that banknote handling operations such as tabulation could be performed efficiently.

[Purpose of the invention]

The present invention was developed in consideration of the above circumstances, and it is possible to install multiple automatic banknote handling machines such as automatic teller machines and automatic teller machines and two exchange machines. It is possible to use -C recycle in common with each other, and it is possible to prevent cash shortages or cash surpluses that occur during the operation of each automatic banknote handling machine, and to prevent the occurrence of an operation stoppage EI= in the middle of operation. Second, the banknotes used in each automatic banknote handling machine can be managed from a central machine in one place (distribution is possible, and banknote handling and East J

The purpose is to capture and provide four systems.

(Summary of the Invention) The banknote processing system of the present invention reciprocates between a plurality of automatic banknote handling machines each having a banknote storage cassette therein, and provides a banknote storage capacity for these automatic banknote handling machines. It is equipped with a cassette transporting means having a function of inserting and removing the cellar 1, and the banknotes of each of the automatic banknote handling machines can be mutually recycled and used by the banknote storage cassette that is inserted and removed and transported by the cullet transporting means. The banknotes carried into each of the above-mentioned automatic banknote handling machines are stored in the banknote storage tray 1 while managing the number of banknotes, and are transferred to the automatic banknote handling machine by the banknote storage cassettes marked UlxcJ'-J. There is a configuration in which a centralizing machine is provided, and the centralizing machine centrally manages the number of banknotes conveyed to each automatic banknote handling machine.

If you do not want to confuse banknotes P from one group with those from another group, it is possible to avoid mixing up banknotes by using separate mobile safes for each group. .

Furthermore, as shown in Fig. 14, each automatic banknote handling machine is operated by a central system such as the head office (118 and 103 are connected online via a modem 104), Since the automatic banknote handling machine 101 is not directly connected to the central control unit 103, each automatic banknote handling machine can be independently operated or suspended. It is also possible to operate them for small group recycling. For example, the 4 online tellers machines 7 in the lobby counter 3 or the slot machine corner 4
The automatic teller machine 8 and the automatic teller machine 9 are operated as a master-slave system if the above-mentioned group recycling system is to be applied. In other words, if the control device 105 for the small group recycle is installed in the mask of one of the small groups in C, and if the banknotes ``)'' are always held in the movable safe 1. If the opening control device 105 is disposed in a distributed manner so that each banknote is automatically handled, ζb can be realized instead of the master-slave system. In this case, the number of banknotes stored in the mobile safe 14 is managed and notified to the staff. In other words, the inflow and outflow of banknotes is audited by each banknote automatic handling side and the mobile safe 1/1 side.
The number of banknotes is managed by the banknotes, and then the banknotes are automatically handled by optical communication via the transceivers 29 and 50. It issues a warning of a shortage or fullness of recycle banknotes, informs the number of remaining ω banknotes, and executes C management operations.

13 tons of banknotes that cannot be automatically checked and loaded by yourself, such as 13 tons, after pulling out the banknote storage capacity 1-16 and moving it to a suitable location (central machine 12, etc.), move it to the -C mobile safe. It is necessary to increase the banknote storage capacity from 14 to 16. Therefore, in this case, the time taken to move the mobile safe 14 increases, and the efficiency of group recycle is reduced accordingly. Naozo Ushita automatic payment (Iku 8
If the automatic teller machine 9 were to have a banknote circulation type configuration such as the automatic teller machine 9, the above problems would be eliminated, but then the automatic teller machine 8 would be complicated and there would be four dolls, which would increase the cost. This could lead to a significant increase.

Furthermore, as mentioned above, the banknote storage capacity 1 to 16 is for each automatic banknote handling machine's denomination/scrutiny '3IN filling and mobile safe 1.
The banknotes inserted and removed by the banknotes 4 are all the same for the group banknotes and the banknotes for banknotes, making it easy to manage and handle, and also allow staff to carry and manually recycle banknotes between groups. Become.

In addition, the bill storage baskets 1 to 17 are provided with the bill storage baskets 1 of each automatic bill handling machine by means of a movable safe 14.
