Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Technical Field of the Invention] The present invention relates to a deposit/withdrawal device for an automatic transaction device installed in a bank or the like, and particularly to a circulating deposit/withdrawal device that allows deposited banknotes to be circulated and used as withdrawn banknotes. .

[Technical background of the invention and its problems] Automatic transaction devices called ATVs are widely used in banks, etc., and automation and speeding up of counter operations have been achieved. Recently, however, banks have begun to adopt a two-day work week, and ATMs are no longer available when banks are closed, resulting in a corresponding decline in service to customers, and measures to improve this situation are being considered. Unmanned operation of automated corners is being considered as a way to solve this problem. but,
Conventional ATMs have separate units for deposits and withdrawals, so the deposit unit only collects money, while the withdrawal unit only takes money out.

For this reason, it is frequently necessary to take out banknotes from the deposit unit and replenish money to the withdrawal unit, which is a disadvantage of automation. In order to solve these problems, a circulation type (recycling type) depositing and dispensing device has been developed in which deposited banknotes are used as disbursed banknotes, and the banknotes are circulated and used.

This recycled warrior withdrawal device has a BX function for replenishing banknotes and collects banknotes in the deposit/withdrawal device to fal
Thorough examination! There are 51 abilities. The loading function stores banknotes from the bulk storage box into the denomination-specific storage box, and the inspection function stores banknotes from the denomination-specific storage box into the bulk storage box.

The clerk takes in and out banknotes through this bulk storage box. Therefore, handling of banknotes is required, which hinders unmanned automation. Further, when using deposited banknotes as disbursed banknotes, it is necessary to remove in advance banknotes that are inappropriate for withdrawal during banknote recycling. Further, even though the payer performs a withdrawal operation and the banknotes are withdrawn, the payer may forget to take the banknotes, and it is necessary to collect such forgotten banknotes.

[Object of the Invention] It is an object of the present invention to provide a circulating military withdrawal device that can automatically handle various banknotes generated in the cycle of withdrawal at once.

FIG. 8 shows the flow of banknotes when depositing money, and this depositing operation will be explained according to the flow shown in FIG. 11. When the button corresponding to the deposit display is pressed in accordance with the guidance on the CRT display 112a, the motor M1 is rotated normally so as to open the deposit/withdrawal port #12. When the deposit/withdrawal port #12 is completely opened, the deposit/withdrawal opening switch SW2 is turned on and the motor M1 is stopped.

In this state, when the depositor inserts banknotes into the deposit/withdrawal hopper 13 through the deposit/withdrawal port and then manually closes the deposit/withdrawal 0 door 12, the switch SW1 for detecting the leap of the deposit/withdrawal 0 door 12 is activated. Turn on. Then, the photosensor P2 that detects whether a banknote is inserted is in the banknote inserted state, that is,
Detects dark conditions.

Next, a photo sensor P detects the height of banknotes at the deposit/withdrawal port.
1 is detecting darkness. This photosensor P1 is provided to detect whether the banknotes are inserted in the correct position, and is arranged at a position slightly higher than the width of the banknotes and lower than the length of the banknotes. When the banknotes are inserted vertically, the photo sensor P1 detects darkness, that is, it detects that the banknotes are inserted in the wrong direction, and in this case, the message ``Please reinsert the banknotes correctly'' is displayed on the CRT display 112a. .At this time, the deposit/withdrawal slot 12 is opened again to enable the re-insertion of banknotes.If the banknotes are correctly inserted, the motor M2 that drives the backup 17 of the deposit/withdrawal hopper 13 rotates normally. .When this motor M2 is rotating forward, this motor M
The one-way clutch connected to 2 is in a released state, and in this state, the banknotes continue to be pressed toward the feed roller by the spring force. At this time, when the main motor M12 that drives the main transport path is rotated, the main transport path starts to move at a low speed. When the electromagnetic clutch C1 is energized and the main conveyance path enters a high-speed conveyance state, the motor M3, which starts taking in banknotes, rotates normally. As the motor M3 rotates, the take-in roller 14, rubber roller 15, and gate roller 16 rotate, and bills ¥ are fed into the main conveyance path one by one. When each banknote ¥ enters the banknote inspection section 18, the banknote inspection section 18 determines the denomination, authenticity, and front and back sides of the banknote ¥ by a well-known method. The banknote ¥ passed through the banknote inspection unit 18 is guided downward by the first gate G1, further diverted upward by the row, and enters the gate G5 via the gates G2, G3, and G4. As a result of the inspection by the banknote inspection unit 18, if the incoming banknote ¥ is determined to be a genuine note, the amount of the banknote ¥ is sequentially added to the transaction deposit memory, and the gate G5 is transferred to the temporary storage unit 23.
Switched to the side.

This switching is performed by operating the rotary solenoid S6, and the rotary solenoid $6 is operated at a predetermined time delay from the time when the leading edge of the banknote is detected by the photosensor P9. When the front and back judgment of the banknote ¥ led to the temporary storage section 23 is heads, the gate G6 is tilted to the right and the banknote ¥
is led to the path on the left. If the judgment is wrong,
Gate G6 is pushed to the left, and the banknotes are led to the passage (bus) on the right. Note that the gate G6 is driven by a solenoid S7, and this solenoid S7 is operated with a delay time somewhat longer than the delay of the solenoid S6 from the time when the front end of the bill is detected by the photosensor P9. The banknotes ¥ passed through the gate G6 are stored in the temporary storage section 23.

As a result of the inspection by the bill inspection section 18, if the incoming bill ¥ is not a genuine bill, the gate G5 is switched to the reject side. This switching is performed by deenergizing the rotary solenoid S6, and the rotary solenoid S6 is deenergized at a predetermined time delay from the time when the leading edge of the banknote is detected by the photosensor P9.

The banknotes guided to the reject side are accumulated in the deposit reject accumulation section 24.

As described above, the banknotes are temporarily distributed to the storage unit 23 or the deposit reject accumulation unit 24, and all the banknotes in the deposit/withdrawal port hopper 13 are sent out, and the photo sensor P2 becomes bright.
When the condition is detected, backup 1 of deposit/withdrawal port hopper 13
Motor M2 reverses so that 7 is raised. When the backup 17 reaches the upper stop position, the detection switch SW3 detects this. Motor M2 is stopped in response to this detection.

When a detection switch (photo interrupter) SW4 that detects the stop position of the pulse motor that drives the take-in roller 14 detects the stop position, the banknote take-in motor M3 is stopped. At this time, the electromagnetic clutch C1 is turned off, and the main motor M12 is stopped in order to further stop the main conveyance path.

Thereafter, it is checked whether there are any rejected tickets, and if there are no rejected tickets, the number of bills for each denomination is stored in the transaction deposit memories a, b, and c. The CRT display 112a displays ``The deposit amount is 00 yen.'' If it is correct, please press "○", if it is incorrect, please press "x"" will be displayed.r
When the OJ button is pressed, banknotes of ¥ are sent out from the temporary deposit storage section 23 to the deposit/withdrawal port hopper 13 in a batch. The operation of the temporary storage section 23 at this time will be explained with reference to FIG.

FIG. 9<a) shows a state in which the banknote bundle is stored in the storage box, and the upper press plate 29 is lowered from this state. When the upper press plate 29 presses the banknote bundle against the bottom plate 30, the bottom plate 30 descends. The bottom plate 30 is in a nested relationship with the conveyor belt, so that the bottom plate 30 can handle the conveyor belt and move to a position below the conveyor belt. At this time, the front side plate 31 of the bottom plate 30 rotates and falls forward to form a carry-in path. The upper press plate 29 stops halfway depending on the thickness of the banknote bundle due to spring force. As the banknotes are pressed against the conveyor belt and carried out, the upper press plate 29 descends to press the banknotes against the conveyor belt. Upper press plate 29
reaches the lower stop position and the detection switch SW6 is turned on,
As shown in the flowchart of FIG. 11(d), motor M4 is stopped. Here, solenoid S8 is turned ON to open G1-G10.

Next, the motor M5 is rotated normally in order to lower the upper belt of the deposit reject accumulation section 24. That is, motor M5
When the roller 32 rotates in the normal direction, the roller 32 descends from the position shown in FIG. 10(a) as shown in FIG. 10(1)). As a result, the upper belt moves to the lower belt while pressing the banknote bundle in the stacking section. When the upper and lower belts of the deposit reject accumulation section reach the lower stop position, the detection switch SW9 turns ON, and the motor M
5 is stopped. At this time, a return bus (passage) to the deposit/withdrawal port is formed by the upper and lower belts. Furthermore, Figure 10 (
As shown in C), the roller 33 rises and the lower belt moves up and down so as to push up the upper belt. When this stops at the upper stop position, a conveyance path to the back side is formed.

When the solenoid S1 is energized, the backup 17 of the deposit/withdrawal port hopper 13 is rotated, and the backup 17 is opened so that an approach conveyance path to the deposit/withdrawal port hopper 13 is formed. At this time, in order to drive the main conveyance path at low speed, the main motor M2 is turned on while the clutch C1 is turned off. This is to transport banknotes in bundles, and the transport speed is 1/10 of the speed when transporting banknotes one by one.
will be lowered to FIG. 13 shows the conveyance route for this bundle of banknotes. Photo sensor P10 during conveyance of banknote bundle
detects the remaining banknotes in the temporary deposit storage section 23, and when there are no remaining banknotes, a timer is set in response to the detection output of the photosensor P10, and the motor M12 is stopped after the set time of the timer has elapsed.

After the motor M12 is stopped, the solenoid S1 is turned off as shown in the flowchart of FIG. 11(e), and the tip of the deposit/withdrawal lock-up 17 is returned to its original position. Further, solenoid S8 is turned off and gate GIO is closed. Furthermore, the motor M5 is reversed so that the upper belt of the deposit reject accumulating section 24 returns to its original position, and switch SW8 is turned to OFF during the return operation of the deposit reject accumulating section 24.
When N is reached, motor M5 is stopped. At this time, a reject ticket accumulation space is formed between the upper and lower belts.

On the other hand, the upper press plate 29 and the bottom plate 30 of the temporary storage section 23
Motor M4 is reversed to raise to the initial position. When the upper press plate 29 and the bottom plate 30 reach the upper stop position, the photo interrupter SW4 is turned on, and the motor M5 is turned on.
will be stopped. After this, the operation of discriminating the disbursed banknotes is performed according to the route shown in FIG. 14, but before that, as shown in FIG.
Returning to the flow above, the operation when a rejected ticket exists will be explained.

If there is a rejected ticket, it is determined whether the number of times it is used is three times or less. If a reject ticket exists, the inspection of the rejected ticket is repeated, and the limit is set to three times. If the number of times is less than the limit of three times, the message ``Please reinsert the banknote correctly'' is displayed and the operation follows the flow shown in FIG. 11(h).

That is, solenoid S8 is energized and gate G10 is opened. The motor M5 is rotated forward, and the deposit reject accumulation section 2
4 upper belt 24a is lowered. Upper belt 24a
When reaches the lower stop position, the 7-way interrupter switch SW9 turns O.
N, and motor M5 stops. The solenoid S1 is turned on so that the tip of the backup 17 is bent to form a bill receiving space. In this state, the rejected ticket can be transported. By driving the main motor M2, the rejected ticket is returned to the deposit/withdrawal port hopper 13 at low speed. At this time, a timer is set,
Motor M12 is stopped after a predetermined time.

At this time, the timer functions in place of a bill remaining sensor for the deposit reject accumulation section 24.

Solenoid S1 turns OFF when the return of the register banknote is completed.
The backup 17 is restored to its original state.

Furthermore, solenoid S8 is turned off and gate G10 is closed. In the flow of Fig. 11(i), motor M
5 is reversed. This is a drive for raising the upper belt 24a of the deposit reject accumulation section 24 to re-form the accumulation space. When the upper belt 24a reaches the middle stop position, the photointerrupter SW8 is turned on, and in response, the motor M5 is stopped. This invasion, Figure 11 (a
) Returning to the flow, the depositor reloads the returned banknotes by opening the deposit/withdrawal 0112, and the banknotes are inspected again according to the same flow. This banknote re-examination is limited to 3 times.
When the number of times is exceeded, as shown in the flowchart of Fig. 11 (C), the message ``Unreadable bills will be returned'' is displayed, and the pre-processing for discriminating the disbursed banknotes described earlier is executed.This pre-processing 1
The process is completed by stopping the motor M4 in the flow shown in FIG. 1(e).

Next, a dispensing banknote discrimination process is performed. First, it is determined whether the rOJ button has been pressed. If this determination is YES, the electromagnetic clutch C1 is turned on, and the main motor M12 is turned on to drive the main conveyance path at high speed. is driven. At this time, the motor 2 is rotated normally in order to push down the backup 17 of the deposit/withdrawal port hopper 13. Banknotes ¥ is a backup 1
7, it is pressed against the take-in roller 15. The motor M3 that rotates the take-in roller 15 is driven to rotate in the forward direction, so that banknotes ¥ are sent out one by one to the main conveyance path.

As shown in FIG. 14, this banknote is conveyed to the banknote inspection section 18 by the main conveyance path, and the denomination and fitness are determined. This banknote inspection determines whether the banknote is suitable for withdrawal, and in this determination, banknotes that have been repaired with adhesive tape or the like, and banknotes that are stained or damaged are treated as unsuitable for withdrawal. When 1,000 yen bills suitable for withdrawal are sequentially sent in this judgment as to whether the withdrawal is appropriate or inappropriate, 1,000 yen is sequentially added to the stored amount memory O corresponding to the 1,000 yen storage box 26. At this time, the gate G1 is rotated to the right so that the banknotes are transported to the storage box 26. This gate G
The rotational drive of No. 1 is performed by turning on the solenoid S2. When the 1,000 yen bill is conveyed to the 1,000 yen storage box 26 via the conveyance path and the photo sensor P12 detects passage of the 1,000 yen bill, the solenoid 812 is turned OFF, the gate G8 is rotated to the left, and the passage to the 1,000 yen storage box 26 is carried out. is formed. Therefore, the 1,000 yen bills are sequentially stored in the 1,000 yen bill storage box 26.

If the transported bill is a 10,000 yen bill instead of a 1,000 yen bill, 10,000 yen is sequentially added to the storage amount memory P corresponding to the 10,000 yen bill storage box 25. - The 10,000 yen bill is conveyed to the 10,000 yen storage box 25 via the gate G1. At this time, photosensor P1
1 When the passage of a 10,000 yen bill is detected, solenoid S9 turns O.
N is turned, gate G7 is rotated to the left, and 10,000 yen storage box 2 is opened.
5 is formed. Therefore, -10,000 yen bills are sequentially stored in the 10,000 yen bill storage box 25.

If there was an inappropriate withdrawal, the transaction deposit memory a
The value obtained by subtracting the total number of stored 1,000 yen bills and the number of stored - 10,000 yen bills from the total number of banknotes stored in , b, and c is added to Q. Next, solenoid S2 is turned off and gate G1 is rotated to the left. Furthermore, solenoid S
3 is turned ON, and gate G2 is rotated to the left. As a result, the banknotes that are inappropriate for withdrawal are guided to the reject storage box 36 by the gates G1 and G2 and stored there.

As described above, all the banknotes in the deposit/withdrawal port hopper 13 are dumped into the storage boxes 25, 26, 36, and when the photo sensor P2 detects that there are no bills remaining, the motor is activated to raise the backup 17 of the deposit/withdrawal port hopper 13. M2 rotates in the opposite direction. When the backup 17 reaches the upper stop position, the proximity switch SW3 is turned on and the motor M2 is stopped. At this time, when the photosensor SW4 is OFF, that is, the motor M3 is stopped when the motor stop position for receiving and sending money to the deposit/withdrawal port is detected.

Subsequently, the main transport path motor M12 is stopped.

At the time of re-fetching, it is determined whether or not there is a rejected bill. If NO, the process moves to the storage operation; if YES, the total number of bills stored in transaction deposit memories a, b, and c is calculated by 1,000,000. The value obtained by subtracting the total number of stored yen bills and the number of stored -10,000 yen bills is added to Q, and then the storage operation is started. The storage operation is performed according to the flow shown in FIG. 12, and this storage operation will be described later. When the storage operation is completed, the values of the transaction memories a, b, and c are added to the values of the current island memories R1S and T of the deposit/withdrawal device, and are stored. The values of the transaction memories a, b, and c are added to the values of the accumulated deposit memories A, B, and C, and are stored in the memories A, B, and C, respectively. memory a
, b, and c are cleared, thereby ending the deposit and withdrawal banknote discrimination processing.

Next, the storage operation will be explained according to the subroutine shown in FIG. 12, but before that, the configurations of the 1,000 yen bill storage box 26 and the -10,000 yen hole storage box 25 will be explained. However, the structure of the thousand yen bill storage box 26 and the million yen hole storage box 25 is exactly the same as that of the bulk storage box 34 of the bulk storage section 27 shown in FIGS. 16 and 17. The structure of the storage box will be explained based on the following.

A take-in roller 15a and a feed roller 16a are provided at the top of the storage box 34. These rollers 14a
and 15a are connected by an intermediate gear, one to one
The machine is rotated by the machine and takes in or feeds one bill per revolution. The rollers 14a and 15a are removably connected to a motor M1 through a swivel coupling and are driven by this motor M10. An elastic belt 41 and an idle roller 54 are installed coaxially with the take-in roller 14a, and these can freely rotate independently of the take-in roller 14a. The inlet side idle roller 40 is the intake shaft idle roller 54
The main transport path belt 41 is coupled to the main conveyor path belt 41 via an elastic belt 41, and both are rotated by the movement of the elastic belt 41 receiving power from the main conveyance path belt. Three rows of beating wheels 28a are provided facing the idle roller 40 on the entrance side. These beating wheels 28a have the same function as the beating wheels 28 of the temporary storage section 23. The back-up plate 38 is supported by a hydraulic rod 48 via a linear ball bearing so as to be vertically movable. Further, the back-up plate 38 is always urged upward by a spring 46. Furthermore, the back up plate 38
is connected to the drive belt 49, and is connected to the DC motor M11 with a gear reducer by a detachable coupling to a pulley 55 with a one-way clutch. 16th
In the figure, when the motor M11 is rotated counterclockwise, the one-way clutch is locked and the pulley 55 and belt 49
The back-up plate 38 is lowered against the spring 46 via the spring 46.

When the motor M11 rotates clockwise, the one-way clutch slips, and the back-up plate 38 is urged upward by the tensile force of the spring 46, but when the motor M11 is stopped, the self-locking mechanism of the gear reducer forces the one-way clutch upward. The tensile force of the spring 46 causes the back-up plate 38 to
cannot rise and has stopped.

The back-up plate 38 has a micro switch 5 for empty detection.
W21 is attached, and a relief hole corresponding to the actuator of the microswitch 5W21 is bored in the push plate 39. Therefore, if there are no banknotes when the back-up plate 38 is raised to the uppermost position, the actuator in the escape hole can detect the crowd and the absence of banknotes.

The push-in plate 39 is supported by a guide roller 48 via another linear ball bearing independently of the back-up plate 38 so as to be vertically movable. Further, the push-in plate 39 is always urged upward by a separate spring 47 independent of the back-up plate 38, and is further connected to a drive belt 50 via a detachable coupling to a pulley 56 with a one-way clutch. DC motor M11 with gear reducer
is combined with

The operation of the push-in plate 39 is exactly the same as that of the back-up plate 38; when the motor M11 rotates clockwise, the one-way clutch slips, and when the motor M11 rotates counterclockwise, the one-way clutch is locked.

Therefore, when the DC motor M11 rotates counterclockwise, the push plate 39 and the back-up plate 38 descend at the same speed while maintaining the same distance. On the other hand, when the motor Mll rotates clockwise, the back-up plate 38 and the push-in plate 39 are unlocked so as to rise within the range of the circumferential speed of the pulleys 55, 56.

At this time, depending on the load conditions, the back-up plate 38 and the push-in plate 39 can stop, slowly rise, or perform different operations.

Hold claws 42, 43 are supported by magnets 816 and 817 and return springs 44, 45, respectively. In FIG. 15, the arm tip of the left holding claw 42 is in contact with the rotating shaft of the beating wheel 28a. Therefore, when the solenoid 816 attracts the hold claw 42, the striking wheel 28
At the same time, a rotates to the left and escapes. In this escape position, the beating wheel 28a does not receive rotational driving force from the external conveyance path, so the beating wheel 28a does not rotate.

Even when the intake pulse motor M10 is stopped, if the main conveyance path is driven, the telescopic belt 41, the entrance side idle row 540, and the intake shaft idle roller 54 are transferred via the belt gear.
, the striking roller 128a, the reversing roller 16a1, and the feeding roller 57 rotate, so that bills can be conveyed. If the rubber chip of the take-in roller 14a is on the conveyance path during banknote conveyance at this time, there is a risk that it will become an obstacle. Therefore, in order to take in the first bill without skipping when taking out a bill, the rubber chip of the take-in roller 14a is necessary. It is necessary to always correctly stop the stop position between the conveyance path and the intake surface. For this purpose, a switch 5W20 is provided, which detects the stop position from the notch position of the notch disk attached to the intake shaft, and detects the stop position of the motor M.
Stop 10.

By configuring the storage box as described above, there are the following advantages. That is, since the two upper and lower plates can be moved up and down with a freely spaced interval using one motor, it is possible to correspond to the amount of banknotes stored. At the time of taking in, the stacking height is mechanically set by a holding claw so that up to 100 banknotes can be stacked, so that the banknotes can be stacked without being affected by the stacking flow of banknote bundles. Since the pushing plate is moved below the holding plate, even if the stacking is somewhat disordered, the banknotes can be aligned and pushed in. The fixed force of the spring raises the banknotes and presses them against the holding claws, so even if the stacked banknotes become loose or fluffy during stacking, the banknotes are pressed against each other in one storage operation, so a large amount can be stored in a small space. Can store banknotes.

Next, the storage operation of the storage boxes 25, 26, and 34 will be commonly explained according to the flow shown in FIG. 12 and the steps shown in FIG. 15.

In FIG. 15(a), solenoids S10, S11, S13, 314, 816, and S17 are used when taking in banknotes.
is turned off, and the bold claws 42 and 43 are inside the storage box. In this state, the bundle of banknotes already stored is regulated by the hold claws 42, 43.

Further, the holding claws 42 and 43 and the stored banknotes form a bottom for newly taken in banknotes. The distance to the bottom is set to a value that is optimal for stacking up to 100 banknotes and prevents the banknotes from standing up or turning over. That is, the distance 11 is set so as to prevent the paper from turning upside down and becoming stuck in an upright position. Therefore, the banknotes taken in enter obliquely and are stacked one after another as shown in FIG. 15(a). All banknotes that can be withdrawn from the deposit/withdrawal port hopper 13 are held by the hold claw 42.4
If it piles up on top of 3, the capture will stop. At this time, the motors M7, M9, and Mll rotate normally (rotate counterclockwise in the figure), and the back-up plate 38 and push-in plate 39 descend, but since the one-way clutch is locked, the back-up plate 38 and push-in plate 39 Both descend at circumferential speed.

Solenoid 810, S11 after a predetermined time by a timer.
, S13, 814, 816, and S17 are turned on, and the hold claws 42, 43 are opened (FIG. 15b). When the back-up plate 38 and the push-in plate 29 descend to the push-in position shown in FIG. 15(C), the switches 5W14 and SWl
9.5W24 turns ON.

At this time, motors M7, M9, Mll are stopped, and solenoids S10, S11, S13, S14.
．． 817 is turned off and the holding claws 42, 43 enter the storage box again (FIG. 15d).

After this, motors M7, M9, Mll reverse, ie, rotate clockwise in the figure. In the reverse rotation, the one-way clutch becomes free, so the back-up plate 38 and the push-in plate 39 are raised separately by the spring force. Since the pushing plate 39 is constructed in a nested relationship with the holding claws 42.43, it passes through the holding claws 42.43, but the upper part of the bill bundle placed on the back-up plate 38 collides with the holding claws, and the back-up plate 38 stops. At this time, the banknotes are pressed together by the lifting force of the back-up plate 38 and packed together. That is, since the banknotes taken into the storage box are packed together, a considerable amount of banknotes can be stored even in a small space.

When the push plate 39 reaches the invoice ticket guide position, the switch 5W13.5W18.5W23 is turned on.

In response to turning on this switch, motors M7 and M are used to stop the lifting of the backup plate 38 and the push-in plate 39.
9. Ml 1 is stopped and the storage operation is completed.

If rOJ is not pressed in the flow of FIG. 11 (l), the flow moves to the flow of FIG. 11 (j). That is, the motor M1 is rotated forward to open the deposit/withdrawal port f112. When the daily leg 12 reaches the open stop position, switch SW
2 is ONL, motor M1 stops. Here, when the depositor removes the banknotes from the deposit/withdrawal port hopper 13 and there are no remaining banknotes, the photo sensor P2 is turned on, and the motor M1 is turned on.
will be reversed, and the 12 daily withdrawal periods will be closed. Human withdrawal mouth vinegar 12
When the motor M1 reaches the closed position, the switch SW1 turns ON and the motor M1 stops. This will bring you to the initial state, allowing you to perform the next deposit operation.

Next, withdrawal will be explained with reference to the flows shown in FIGS. 18 and 19. When the button corresponding to the deposit is pressed according to the guidance on the CRT display 112a and the withdrawal amount is keyed in, the main motor M12 that drives the main conveyance path is rotated in the normal direction.

Due to the forward rotation of only the main motor M12, the main conveyance path begins to run at a low speed. When the electromagnetic clutch C1 is turned on, the main conveyance path rotates at high speed. If the withdrawal is specified as a 10,000 yen bill or a 1,000 yen bill, the 10,000 yen bill storage box 25 is selected first, and -
The operation of dispensing money from the 1000 yen hole is started, and then the 1000 yen bill storage box 2G is selected, and the operation of dispensing 1000 yen bills is started. If the withdrawal is specified as a 1,000 yen bill, the 1,000 yen bill storage box 26 is selected from the beginning,
The operation of dispensing 1,000 yen bills begins.

The withdrawal operation operates according to the flow shown in Figure 20.
As shown in FIG. 1(a), the motor M7 (M9) is rotated in the normal direction in order to slightly lower the back-up plate 38 and the push-in plate 39. This is to release the stored banknotes from being pressed against the holding claws 42, 43 by the pushing up force of the back-up plate 38, and to make it easier to remove the hold claws from the stored banknote bundle. The amount of descent is set by a timer, and when the timer elapses, motor M7 (M9)
is stopped and solenoid 810.5i1 (S13.51
4) is turned on, and the hold claws 42 and 43 are opened.

In this state, the motor M7 (M9) is reversely rotated, and the back-up plate 38 and push-in plate 39 are raised. When the banknotes are raised to a predetermined position, a timer is activated, and the motor M6 (-18) rotates normally in order to start taking in and feeding out banknotes. The forward rotation of the motor M6 (M8) causes the take-in roller 14a to rotate and feed out the banknotes one by one.

At this time, the photosensor P11 (P12) detects the passage of banknotes, and the number of bills passed is counted based on the detection signal. The banknotes dispensed from the storage box 2526 are conveyed to the banknote inspection section 18 by the main conveyance path.

The transported banknotes are inspected by the banknote inspection section 18 for denomination, authenticity, and stacking. If it is determined through these inspections that the bill to be dispensed is a genuine bill, the gate G2 is moved to the right and the solenoid S3 is turned off to form a passage to the temporary storage section 23.
be made into If the bill is not a valid bill, the solenoid S3 is energized so that the gate G2 moves to the left in order to guide the bill to the rejiku 1 to the storage box 36 as a direct ticket. This gate switching timing is determined by the detection of bill passage by the photosensor P8. When a valid bill is detected by the photosensor P9, the rotary solenoid S6 is biased to rotate to the left in order to switch the gate G5 to the temporary storage section side. Further, the rotary solenoid S7 is deenergized in order to switch the gate G6 to the right by a spring force to form a left path. In this state, banknotes are sequentially stored in the temporary storage section 23. When the number of banknotes sent out from the storage box reaches the specified number, it is checked whether or not there is a direct ticket.

If there is a rejected ticket, the number of rejected tickets is added to the designated number, and the process returns to the flow of counting the number of dispensed tickets shown in FIG. 20(a). If there is no rejected ticket, it is checked whether the photosensor 5WIO (SW15) for detecting the stop position of the take-in motor has detected the stop position (dark detection). If YES, the intake motor M6 (M8) is stopped. In this state, the designated number of banknotes has been fed out from the storage box, but at the end of this banknote feeding, the banknotes are gradually being fed out of the storage box, that is, after the last banknote has been fed out, the next banknote is transferred to the take-in roller 14.
The bill is fed out a little by a, and the leading edge of the bill protrudes between the take-in roller 14a and the reversing gate roller 16a. When this gradual withdrawal occurs, the gradually dispensed banknotes will not return correctly, causing a malfunction in the next withdrawal. Therefore, in order to eliminate this uneven delivery, the back-up plate 38 is lowered while the conveyor belt continues to run even if the take-in motor M6 (M8) is stopped after a predetermined number of banknotes have been sent out. As a result, when the banknote bundle becomes loose, the reversing roller 16a pulls the slightly dispensed banknotes back into the storage box. To eliminate this unevenness, the back-up plate 38 and the push-in plate 39 start to descend simultaneously, but since the push-in plate 39 is retracted by an amount α from the take-in roller surface, when the back-up plate 38 is lowered by α, this α The bill bundle is loosened by that amount, and by taking advantage of this loosening, the gradual coming out is eliminated, and by lowering the push plate 39, the gradually coming out bills, that is, the uppermost banknotes are returned to the normal position.

As the motor M7 (M9) rotates forward, the back-up plate 38 and the push-in plate 39 are lowered as shown in FIG.
9) turns on. , motor M in response to detection of the pushing position.
7 (M9) is stopped, and the lowering of the back-up plate 38 and the push-in plate 39 is stopped.

At this time, solenoid 810. Sl 1 (813,5
14) is turned OFF, and the hold claw is returned to the storage box (e). Again, motor M7 (M9) is reversed,
The back-up plate 38 and the push-in plate 39 are raised (f
). When the stored banknotes collide with the holding pawl, the back-up plate 38 stops. When the push plate 39 rises to the guide position, the switch 5W13 (SW18) is turned on. As a result, the motor M7 (M9) driving the back-up plate 38 and push-in plate 39 upward stops, and the dispensing operation is completed.

According to the above-mentioned withdrawal operation, the holding claw is retracted from the stored ticket after the back-up plate 38 is lowered slightly to reduce the pressure between the stored tickets, which is pressed by the back-up plate 38, so that the banknotes are not scratched. The magnetic force of the solenoid required for retracting the holding claw can be reduced. In addition, if the motor M11 continues to rotate clockwise during the withdrawal process, the back-up plate will gradually rise due to the force of the pressing spring 46 as banknotes are received, eliminating the need for pressure detection or complicated control. Stable capture is possible even when Furthermore, even after the rotation of only the take-in roller has been stopped, while the banknotes continue to travel on the conveyance path and the reversing roller continues to rotate, the banknotes that are pressed against each other become loose, and the pushing plate then pushes the banknotes downward. By pushing down, the protrusion is corrected and stored. Furthermore, since the push-in plate is lowered below the holder claw and then returned to its original position, a space for accumulating the next deposited banknote can be reliably created.

When the dispensing operation is completed, the electromagnetic clutch C1 is turned off, the main motor M12 is further stopped, and the main conveyance path is accordingly stopped. Thereafter, as shown in the flowchart of FIG. 19(b), the motor M4 is rotated normally, and the bottom plate 30 of the temporary storage section 23 is lowered below the conveyor belt, and the upper press plate 29 is also lowered. When the bottom plate 30 and the upper press plate 29 are lowered to the lower stop position, the switch SW6 is turned on and the motor M4 is stopped. At this time, solenoid S8
is turned on, and gate GIO is opened. Motor M5
is rotated in the forward direction, and the upper belt 2 of the deposit reject accumulation section 24
4a descends. When the upper belt 24a reaches the lower stop position and the detection switch SW9 is turned on, the motor M5 stops. The solenoid S1 is turned on, and the tip of the deposit/withdrawal robust up 17 rotates to be in the open state. In this state, when the motor M12 is driven and the main conveyance path runs at a low speed, the banknote bundles in the temporary storage section 23 are conveyed all at once and enter the deposit/withdrawal hopper 13 via the deposit reject accumulation section 24. The conveyance process at this time is shown in FIGS. 9 and 10.

When the food sensor P10 for detecting residual banknotes in the temporary storage section detects a bright state, that is, there is no residual banknote, the motor M12 is stopped after a set time of the timer from the detection, and the traveling of the main conveyance path is accordingly stopped. Thereafter, the solenoid S1 is turned off to restore the backup 17, and the solenoid S8 is turned off to further close the gate GIO. In addition, the upper belt 2 of the deposit reject accumulation section 24
Motor M5 is reversed to return 4a to its original position.

When the upper belt 24a reaches the return position and the switch SW8 is turned on, the motor M5 stops. Similarly, the motor M4 is reversed in order to raise the bottom plate 30 of the temporary storage section 23 together with the upper press plate 29 to the return position.

When the bottom plate 30 and the upper press plate 29 are detected by the lower stop position detection switch SW5, the motor M5 is stopped.

Thereafter, the process returns to the flow shown in FIG. 11(j), and the withdrawal person can now take out banknotes from the deposit/withdrawal hopper 13, and the process returns to the initial state.

FIG. 22 shows a route for collecting forgotten banknotes.

This forgotten banknote collection is an operation to collect the banknotes left behind when the customer sometimes forgets to take out the banknotes even though the customer performs a withdrawal operation. In this collection operation, after the deposit/withdrawal port 12 is opened to enable the withdrawal of bills to be withdrawn, if the deposit/withdrawal port hopper 13 remains in a state after a predetermined period of time has elapsed, the deposit/withdrawal port hopper 12 is opened. The forgotten banknotes in the banknotes 13 are conveyed to the collection box 35 by the main conveyance path. At this time, the banknote passes through the banknote inspection section 18.
In step 8, the package may be transported to the collection box 35 without being inspected. The amount of collected banknotes is recorded together with the account number of the customer who forgot to collect the banknotes, and will be used for later inquiries.

Next, the operation of the external replenishment route shown in FIG. 23 will be explained with reference to the flowcharts in FIGS. 25(a) to 25(f).

When performing external replenishment, the rear door of the ATM 1 is opened and the keyboards 5C and 5d of the internal monitor 5 shown in FIG. 7 are operated. First, selector switch 5
"Checks whether it is in standalone mode. YES
If so, the mode switching (normal transaction mode and clerk operation mode switching) key on the keyboard 5C is pressed. The attendant operation mode lamp on the display panel 5a lights up. Next, the replenishment key is pressed, and then the 10,000 yen or 1,000 yen key is pressed to specify the denomination. Press the number of banknotes key, then press numeric keyboard 5
The number of sheets to be replenished is input from d. The number of sheets is displayed on the segment display 5b. If the denomination and number of coins are correct, the confirmation key is pressed. At this time, it is checked whether the designated denomination storage box is not full. If it is full, all input data is cleared and the flow returns to the replenishment key press flow.

If it is not full, the number will be replenished - the limited number of sheets per session (e.g. 1
00 sheets) or less is checked. If it is within the limit, the replenishment pinch roller is opened, and if it is outside the limit, all input data is cleared and the flow returns to the replenishment key press flow. When the replenishment pinch roller is opened, banknotes can be inserted, and a bundle of 100 banknotes is inserted into the replenishment pinch roller. The insertion of the banknote bundle is detected by the photo sensor P14, and in response to this detection, the gate G10 is opened by the energization of the solenoid S8.

Next, as shown in the flowchart of FIG. 25(b), the motor M5 is reversed in order to raise the lower belt 24a of the deposit reject accumulation section 24. When the upper and lower belt stop position detection switch SW7 is turned on, the motor M5 is stopped. The solenoid S1 is turned on in order to rotate and open the tip of the backup 17 of the deposit/withdrawal port hopper 13 to create an intrusion conveyance path. Here, the motor M12 is driven and the main transport path is driven at low speed.

The above low-speed drive will be explained based on the switching mechanism shown in FIG. 24. When the electromagnetic clutch C1 is turned off and the electromagnetic clutch C2 is turned on while the main motor M12 is rotating normally, the rotational force of the motor M12 is transmitted to the reduction gear 63 via the gear on the upper side of the diagram and the clutch c2. be done. The rotational force of this reduction gear 63 is directly transmitted to the output shaft 59 and rotationally drives the conveyance drive shaft 62 via the belt 61. At this time, the conveyance drive shaft 62 is decelerated by three gears from the motor M12, and is approximately 1/1 of the rotation speed of the motor M12.
Rotates at a speed of 0. This low speed rotation of the transport drive shaft 62 causes the transport belt to run at a low speed. During this low-speed travel, banknotes are conveyed as a bundle.

When motor M12 rotates forward, electromagnetic clutch C1 is turned on.
When the electromagnetic clutch C2 is turned off, the motor M
12 is transmitted substantially directly to the output shaft 59 via the lower gear and clutch C1. Therefore, the output shaft 59 rotates at high speed, and the conveyance drive shaft 62 rotates at high speed accordingly. That is, the main conveyor belt runs at high speed. At this time, banknotes are transported one by one.

The bill bundles conveyed by the main conveyance path running at low speed pass through the gates G3, G4, G5, G6, the deposit reject accumulation section 24,
When the bill enters the deposit/withdrawal port hopper 13 via the gate G10 and the backup 17 and is stored in the deposit/withdrawal port hopper 13, the photosensor P2 detects the banknote bundle. In response to this detection, motor M12 is turned off, and travel on the main conveyance path is stopped. Thereafter, by turning off the solenoids S1 and G8, the deposit/withdrawal robust up 17 is returned to its original position and the gate G10 is closed. Furthermore, motor M
5 is rotated in the forward direction, and the lower belt 24b of the deposit reject accumulation section 24 is returned to its original position. When the intermediate stop position detection switch SW8 is turned on, the motor M5 is stopped.

Next, the electromagnetic clutch C1 and motor M12 are turned on, and the main transport path is driven at high speed. In order to push down the backup 17 of the deposit/withdrawal port hopper 13, the motor M2 is rotated normally. In this state, the motor M3 is rotated in the normal direction to feed the banknotes one by one into the main conveyance path. At this time,
If it is not the inspection mode for inspecting replenishment banknotes, the solenoid S2 is turned on and the gate G1 is rotated to the right in order to form a passage to the thousand yen bill and million yen hole storage boxes 25 and 26.

Since the designated denomination is 10,000 yen as described above, solenoid S9 is turned on to switch gate G7 to the left. At this time, the gate 8 is switched to the right of the solenoid 812 and 0FFL so as not to form a passage to the thousand yen bill storage box 26. The transported ten thousand yen banknotes are sequentially stored in the ten thousand yen hole storage box 25. When the photosensor P2 for detecting the remaining banknotes in the deposit/withdrawal hopper detects a bright state, when it detects that there are no bills remaining, the process moves to the flow shown in FIG. is reversed. When the backup upper stop position detection switch SW3 is turned on, the motor M2 is stopped. When the deposit/withdrawal port intake/feed motor stop position detection switch SW4 detects the stop position, the motor M3 is turned off and the bill intake is stopped.

The electromagnetic clutch C1 is turned off and the main motor M12 is stopped. At this point, the conveyance of the replenishment banknotes to the storage box 25 is completed, and the number of replenishment banknotes, that is, the number of denomination designated input sheets, is added to the remaining amount of the designated storage box (10,000 yen hole storage box 25). The total number of sheets is stored. After this, the storage operation shown in the flowchart of FIG. 12 is executed. When the storing operation is completed, the mode switching button on the keyboard 5C of the internal monitor 5 shown in FIG. 5 is pressed to return to the normal transaction mode. This return to mode can be confirmed by the lighting of the normal transaction mode LED on the display panel 5a.

When returning to the flow of FIG. 25(C) and inspecting the replenishment banknotes, the replenishment banknotes are inspected in the banknote inspection section 18. In the inspection results, the supplementary banknotes are of the designated denomination,
It is confirmed whether the banknote is suitable for withdrawal, and if it passes, the solenoid S2 is turned on and the gate G1 is rotated to the right to form a passage to the thousand yen bill and ten thousand yen hole storage box 25,26. . Since the designated money type is 10,000 yen as described above, solenoid S9 is turned ON to switch gate G7 to the left side. At this time, the gate 8 is switched to the right by turning off the solenoid 812 so as not to form a passage to the thousand yen bill storage box 26. Thereafter, as shown in FIG. 25(e), the transported ten thousand yen banknotes are sequentially stored in the ten thousand yen hole storage box 25.

If there is a banknote that has failed the replenishment banknote inspection, the solenoid S1 is turned OFF, the gate G1 is turned to the left, and the solenoid S3 is turned ON in order to form a passage to the JECT banknote storage box 36. Gate G2 is rotated to the left. Therefore, reject tickets and reject tickets storage box 3
It is stored in 6.

When all the supplementary banknotes in the deposit/withdrawal port hopper 13 are sent out and the photosensor P2 for detecting remaining banknotes in the deposit/withdrawal hopper detects a bright state, the backup 17 of the deposit/withdrawal port hopper 13 is activated.
Motor M2 is reversed to raise . When the backup upper stop position detection switch SW3 is turned on, the motor M2 is stopped. When the deposit/withdrawal port intake/feed motor stop position detection switch SW4 detects the stop position, the motor M
3 is turned OFF and the taking in of banknotes is stopped. The electromagnetic clutch C1 is turned off and the main motor M12 is stopped. Moving to the flow shown in FIG. 25(f), it is checked whether a rejected ticket exists. If there is no rejected ticket, the amount stored in the denomination storage box, that is, the million yen hole storage box 25, is subtracted from the specified input amount. This calculated value is added to the remaining amount of money in the JECT ticket storage box. Then, the input amount of the designated denomination is added to the remaining amount of money in the designated storage box (10,000 yen storage box 25), and the total value is stored. If there is no rejected ticket, the input amount of the designated denomination is directly added to the remaining amount of money in the designated storage box (10,000 yen storage box 25), and the total value is stored. After this, the storage operation shown in the flowchart of FIG. 12 is executed. When the storing operation is completed, the mode switching button on the keyboard 5C of the internal monitor 5 shown in FIG. 5 is pressed to return to the normal transaction mode.

This return to mode can be confirmed by lighting the normal transaction mode lamp on the display panel 5a.

In the above-mentioned external replenishment of banknotes, there are cases in which the replenishment banknotes are inspected and cases in which they are not inspected, which will be explained below. In the case where the inspection is not performed, for example, in a conventional dispensing unit, the teller withdraws the bundled banknotes in units of 100, and the savings clerk handles the bundled 100 banknotes as they are without inspecting them.

This is because the banknotes are rejected based on the trust that the bundled banknotes are infallible. If you follow the same idea, there will be no need for inspection. On the other hand, when inspecting a banknote, it is necessary to ensure that the ATM recognizes the parts that rely on manual labor and only accepts banknotes that pass the test, thereby completely eliminating mistakes.

The above idea of refilling is based on the fact that when recycling is applied to single field ATMs, the 1,000 yen bill storage box is often empty and is almost never full, so a simple refilling port is used. It is based on establishing and making it possible to replenish when a shortage occurs. Therefore, in the following embodiment, when there is a local imbalance in time, time, or location between multiple ATMs, one banknote is removed from an excessive number of ATMs.
The function of sucking up sheets in units of 00 sheets and replenishing them to other machines is explained. This example is shown in FIGS. 26 and 27(a).
This will be explained with reference to the flowcharts from to (f).

This partial copying III work is also designated by the internal monitor 5. That is, it is checked whether the changeover switch 5f is in the standalone mode. If YES, the mode switching (normal transaction mode and clerk operation mode switching) key on the keyboard 5C is pressed. The attendant operation mode lamp on the display panel 5a lights up. Next, the partial copying key is pressed, and then the ten thousand yen or thousand yen key is pressed to specify the denomination. The user presses the banknote number input key and inputs the number of banknotes to be drawn from the ten-key keyboard 5d. The number of sheets is displayed on the segment display 5b. If the denomination and number of coins are correct, the confirmation key is pressed. At this time, it is checked whether the designated denomination storage box is empty. If it is empty, all input data will be cleared and the process will return to the key press flow for partial downloading. If it is not empty, the number of copies will be the limit number of copies per copy (
For example, it is checked whether it is within 100 sheets. If it is not within the limit, all input data is cleared and the process returns to the partial key press flow. If it is within the limit, the motor M12 is rotated forward and the main conveyance path is driven. Electromagnetic clutch C1 is O
N is set, and the main transport path runs at high speed.

A storage box of the designated denomination, for example, the 1,000 yen bill storage box 26 (or the 10,000 yen bill storage box 25) is selected. In order to slightly lower the back-up plate 38 and push-in plate 39 of the storage box 26, the motor M7 (M9) is rotated forward for the time set by the timer.

When the timer setting time has elapsed, motor M7 (M9) is stopped and solenoids 810, 811 (813, 514)
) is turned on, and the hold claws 42 and 43 are opened.

In this state, the motor M7 (M9) is reversely rotated, and the back-up plate 38 and push-in plate 39 are raised. When it rises to a predetermined position, a timer is activated, and motor M6 (M8) rotates normally to start taking in and feeding out banknotes. The forward rotation of the motor M6 (M8) rotates the take-in roller 14a and feeds out the banknotes one by one. At this time, the photosensor P11 (P12) detects the passage of banknotes, and the number of bills passed is counted based on the detection signal. The banknotes dispensed from the storage box 2625 are conveyed to the banknote inspection section 18 by the main conveyance path. The transported banknotes are inspected by the banknote inspection section 18 for denomination and stacking. If it is determined through this inspection that the bill to be dispensed is genuine, the gate G2 is moved to the right and the solenoid S3 is turned OFF to form a passage to the temporary storage section 23.
be made into If the bill is not a legitimate bill, the solenoid S3 is energized so that the gate G2 moves to the left in order to guide the bill to the reject storage box 36 as a rejected bill. This gate switching timing is determined by the detection of bill passage by the photosensor P8. When a valid bill is detected by the photosensor P9, the rotary solenoid S6 is biased to rotate to the left in order to switch the gate G5 to the temporary storage section side. Therefore, the banknotes are sequentially conveyed to the deposit reject stacking section 24.

When the number of banknotes sent out from the storage box reaches the specified number, it is checked whether there is a direct ticket.

If there is a rejected ticket, the number of rejected tickets is added to the specified number, and the process returns to the flow of counting the number of dispensed tickets shown in FIG. 27(b). If there is no rejected ticket, a check is made to see if the photo sensor 5W10 (SW15) for detecting the stop position of the take-in motor has detected the stop position (dark detection). If YES, the intake motor M6 (M8) is stopped. Motor M7 (M
9), the back-up plate 38 and the push-in plate 39 are rotated in the forward direction.
is lowered, and when it lowers to the push-in position, switch SW14
(SW19) is turned on. In response to the detection of the pushing position, the motor M7 (M9) is stopped, and accordingly, the lowering of the backup plate 38 and the pushing plate 39 is stopped. At this time, the solenoid 5101S11 (S13.514) is turned off and the hold claw is returned to the storage box. Again, motor M7 (M9) is reversed, and backup plate 3
8 and the push plate 39 are lifted. When the stored banknotes collide with the holding pawl, the back-up plate 38 stops. The push plate 39 rises to the guide position, and the switch SW13 (S
When W18) is turned ON, the motor M7 (M9) driving the backup plate 38 and the insertion plate 39 upward stops. The electromagnetic clutch C1 and motor M12 are sequentially turned FF, and the main conveyance path is stopped. Deposit rejection accumulation section 2
Motor M5 is reversed to raise lower belt 24a of No.4. When the photo-interrupter SW7 for detecting the stop position on the belt is turned on, the motor M5 is stopped. In this state, motor M12 is reversed. In this case, in the switching mechanism shown in FIG. 24, the electromagnetic clutch C1 is turned off and ii) the magnetic clutch C2 is turned on. Therefore, the reverse rotational force of the main motor M12 is transmitted to the reduction gear 63 via the upper gear and the clutch C2, and the drive shaft 62 is rotated in the reverse direction at a low speed. Therefore, the main conveyance path runs in the reverse direction at a low speed, and the banknotes in the deposit reject accumulation section 24 are collectively conveyed outward as shown by the broken line. Refill port 12a
When the photosensor P14 provided close to detects (dark detection) the bundle of banknotes being conveyed, the motor M12 is turned off after the time set by the timer and the traveling of the main conveyance path is stopped. If a rejected note does not exist in banknote inspection, the input amount of the specified denomination (thousand yen bill) is subtracted from the amount remaining in the storage box (thousand yen bill storage box) and is stored. If a rejected ticket exists, the designated denomination (thousand yen bill) amount corresponding to the number of rejections is calculated. The calculation result value is added to the remaining amount of money in the reject storage box, and the added value is stored. The added value of the calculated value and the specified number of coins is subtracted from the remaining amount of money in the denomination-specific storage box, and the result is stored.

When the balance is determined by the above storage box balance operation, the designated amount is subtracted from the current amount memory of the deposit/withdrawal device, and the result, that is, the total amount held by the ATV is stored. When this process is completed, the mode switching button on the keyboard 5C of the internal monitor 5 is pressed to return to the normal transaction mode. At this time,
The normal transaction mode lamp is turned on, and the deposit/withdrawal device 2 returns to its initial state.

Figure 28 shows the flow of banknotes in the inspection mode in which deposits and withdrawals are settled and the bills in the 10,000 yen hole storage box 25 and the 1,000 yen bill storage box 26 are transferred to the bulk storage box. The explanation is shown in the flowcharts of FIGS. 29(a) to (C). According to this flow, first, the mode switching (normal transaction mode and clerk operation mode switching) key on the keyboard 5C of the internal monitor 5 is pressed. The attendant operation mode lamp on the display panel 5a lights up. Next, the review key is pressed, and then the confirmation key is pressed. At this time, the motor M12 is rotated in the normal direction, and the main conveyance path is driven. The electromagnetic clutch C1 is turned on and the main transport path is driven at high speed.

It is checked whether banknotes ¥ exist in the million yen hole storage box 25. If a million-yen hole exists, the million-yen hole storage box 25 is selected.

After this, the inspection operation for the million-yen hole is performed in Figures 30(a) to (
This inspection operation is executed according to the flow of C), and will be described later.

In imitation of the inspection operation of the 1000 yen hole, it is checked whether there are banknotes ¥ in the 1000 yen bill storage box, and if YES, the 1000 yen storage box is selected. Next, a scrutiny operation is performed on the 1,000 yen bill.

In the above-mentioned inspection operation of 10,000 yen and 1,000 yen, Figure 30 (a
), first, the motor M7 (M9) is rotated in the normal direction in order to lower the back-up plate 38 and the push-in plate 39 slightly. This is to release the stored banknotes from being pressed against the holding claws 42 and 43 by the pushing up force of the back-up plate 38, and to easily separate the holding claws from the stack of stored banknotes without damaging the banknotes. . The amount of descent of the backup plate 38 is set by a timer, and when the timer elapses, the motor M7 (M9) is stopped and the solenoids 810, 811 (813, 514) are turned on.
The hold claws 42 and 43 are opened. In this state, the motor M7 (M9) is reversely rotated, and the back-up plate 38 and push-in plate 39 are raised. When the banknotes are raised to a predetermined position, a timer is activated, and motors M6 (M8) are rotated in the normal direction to start taking in and feeding out banknotes. Motor M6
The forward rotation of (M8) causes the take-in roller 14a to rotate and feed out the banknotes one by one. At this time, photosensor P11
(PI3) detects the passage of bills, and the number of bills passed is counted based on the detection signal. The banknotes dispensed from the storage box 2526 are conveyed to the banknote inspection section 18 by the main conveyance path. The banknote inspection unit 18 determines the denomination and stacking of the conveyed banknotes. If it is determined through these inspections that the bill to be dispensed is genuine, the solenoid S3 is turned off so that the gate G2 is tilted to the right to form a passage in the direction of the gate G3.
Be given an F. If the bill is not a valid bill, the solenoid S3 is energized so that the gate G2 moves to the left in order to guide the bill to the reject storage box 36 as a reject ticket. This gate switching timing is determined by the detection of bill passage by the photosensor P8.

The gate G3 is tilted to the left in order to guide banknotes to the bulk storage box 34. This gate G3 is a plunger solenoid $4
It is driven by being energized.

In this state, the genuine bills are sequentially stored in the bulk storage box 34.

When the rejected tickets are transported to the reject ticket storage box 36 via Goo-G2, they pass through Goo-1-G9, but since this gate G9 is activated only during the collection operation, the intruding reject tickets remain in the reject ticket storage box. 36.

It is checked whether the storage boxes 25 and 26 are empty.

For this empty detection, empty detection switch swi i, 5W16 is set to OFF.
The decision will be made based on whether or not the result is N. If the storage box is not empty, it is determined whether the number of bills sent out from the storage box matches a predetermined number. If YES, it is checked whether the photosensor SWI O (SWl 5') for detecting the stop position of the intake motor has detected the stop position (end detection). YES
At this point, the intake motor M6 (M8) is stopped. At this time,
The bulk storage box 34 is selected and the storage operation is started. This storage operation is performed in the same manner as the flow shown in FIG.

When the designated storage box is empty, the gate G3 is returned to the right by turning off the solenoid S4.

If it is not empty, the flow returns to the flow for counting the number of sheets fed out in FIG. 30(a).

In the flow shown in FIG. 30 <C>, the back-up plate 38 and the push-in plate 39 are lowered by normal rotation of the motor M7 (M9). When these are lowered to the push-in position, the switch SW
I4 (SWl 9) turns on.

Motor M7 (M9) turns OFF in response to push-in position detection.
F, and the lowering of the back-up plate 38 and the push-in plate 39 is stopped. At this time, solenoid S10.811 (
S13.514) is turned OFF and the hold claw is returned to the storage box. Once again, the motor M7 (M9) is reversed, and the back-up plate 38 and push-in plate 39 are raised. When the stored banknotes collide with the holding claw, the back-up plate 3
8 stops.

When the push plate 39 rises to the guide position, the switch S'
vV13 (SWl 8 ) is turned ON. As a result, the motor M7 (M9) driving the back-up plate 38 and the push-in plate 39 upward stops, and the inspection operation is completed.

When the inspection operation is completed, the electromagnetic clutch C1 is turned off, and the main motor M12 is further turned off. This causes the conveyance path to stop. Next, based on the memory contents of the storage unit 7) (Fig. 31), as shown in Fig. 29 (b), the number P sucked up from the million-yen hole storage box is the number of sheets stored in the million-yen hole storage box with the current high memory. is set to Furthermore, the number of bills ○ sucked up from the 1,000 yen bill storage box is set to the number of 1,000 yen bill storage boxes in the current high memory. The cumulative number of million yen coins deposited into the device is added (B-A+E+F).

Additionally, the cumulative number of thousand yen bills deposited into the device is added (LA+D+F). Furthermore, the cumulative number of 5,000 yen bills deposited into the device is set (<N-C). The number of million yen holes that should be in the reject ticket storage box 3G is calculated (VL-P). Further, the number of thousand yen bills that should be in the reject ticket storage box 36 is calculated (UL-0). The cumulative memory areas A to N and vlU are dumped to the printing device and the storage section is cleared. The number P of stored thousand yen bills in the loading box and the number O of stored thousand yen bills are compared (verification).

The number of coins of each denomination stored in the reject box is compared with N, V, and U. If the verification is successful, a new bulk storage unit is set in the deposit/withdrawal device 2.

That is, the bulk storage unit 27 is replaced with a new bulk storage unit. The mode switching button is pressed to return to normal trading mode. The normal transaction mode lamp lights up and the deposit/withdrawal device returns to its initial state and stands by.

FIG. 32 shows the flow of banknotes when the banknotes stored in the bulk storage box 34 of the bulk storage section 27 are loaded into the denomination-specific storage boxes, that is, the 10,000-yen hole storage box 25 and the 1,000-yen bill storage box 26. It is shown. In this loading, mode switching is first performed as in replenishment, inspection, etc. That is, as shown in the flowchart of FIG. 33(a), the mode switching key on the keyboard 5c of the internal monitor 5 is pressed and the attendant operation mode is set. At this time, the attendant operation mode lamp on the display panel 5a lights up.

Next, the loading key is pressed to set the loading mode.

In order to set the number of sheets loaded in the ten thousand yen hole, the sheet number input key is pressed, the number of sheets is input using the numeric keypad, and the ten thousand yen key is further pressed, the number of ten thousand yen sheets is displayed on the segment display 5 of the internal monitor 5.
b, and the input number is further added to the cumulative memory G. In order to set the number of loaded 1,000 yen bills, the number input key is pressed, the number is input using the numeric keys, and when the 1,000 yen key is further pressed, the number of 1,000 yen bills is displayed on the segment display 5b of the internal monitor 5, Further, the input number of sheets is added to the cumulative total memory F. When the confirmation key is pressed, the motor M12 is rotated in the normal direction, and the main transport path is driven. ! 11 clutch C1 is turned on, and the main transport path is driven at high speed. Backup board 38
and a motor M11 to lower the push plate 39 slightly.
is rotated forward by the timer time.

When this timer time has elapsed, motor M11 is stopped,
Further, the solenoids $16 and S17 are turned on, and the hold claws 42 and 43 are opened. In this state, motor M1
1 is reversed, and the back-up plate 38 and push-in plate 39 are raised. When it rises to a predetermined position, a timer starts,
The motor M10 is rotated normally to start taking in and feeding out banknotes. Take-in roller 1 is rotated by the forward rotation of motor MIO.
4a rotates and the banknotes are sent out one by one from the bulk storage box 34. At this time, the photosensor P13 detects the passage of banknotes, and the number of passed banknotes is counted based on the detection signal.

Solenoid S5 is turned on and gate G4 is pushed to the left. Therefore, the banknote ¥ is conveyed in the direction of the banknote inspection section 18. The banknote inspection unit 18 determines the denomination and stacking of the conveyed banknotes. If it is determined through these inspections that the bill to be dispensed is a genuine bill, the solenoid S2 is activated to tilt the gate G1 to the right in order to form a passage in the direction of the 10,000 yen hole storage box 25 and the 1,000 yen bill storage box 26. is turned on. If the bill is not a valid ticket, the solenoid S2 is turned OFF and the solenoid S3 is turned ON so that the gates G1 and G2 are tilted to the left in order to guide the ticket to the reject storage box 36 as a reject ticket. The switching timing of the gate G1 is determined by the detection of passage of banknotes by the photosensor P8.

It is determined whether the denomination of the banknote ¥ to be conveyed toward the denomination storage box is a 1,000 yen note or a 10,000 yen note. If it is a 10,000 yen note, solenoid S9 is turned on so that gate G7 falls to the left in order to guide the 10,000 yen note to the 10,000 yen hole storage box 25. The switching timing of this gate G7 is determined by the timing of detecting the banknote ¥ by the photosensor P11. If it is a 1,000 yen bill, the solenoid 312 is turned on so that the gate G8 falls to the left in order to guide the 1,000 yen bill to the 1,000 yen bill storage box 26. The switching timing of this gate G8 is determined by the timing of detecting the banknote ¥ by the photosensor P12. Photosensor P11 and PI
The number of stored ten thousand yen bills and the number of thousand yen bills stored are counted by the banknote detection signal No. 3.

The banknotes sorted as above are placed in the ten thousand yen hole storage box 25.
, are stored in the 1,000 yen bill storage box 26 and the rejected ticket storage box 36, respectively. Each time banknotes are stored, it is determined whether the bulk storage box 34 is empty or whether the stored banknote count value matches a predetermined number of banknotes. If either of them is determined as YES, it is determined whether the photosensor 5W20 has detected the dark side exit, that is, the stop position of the bulk storage box take-in and feed motor. This judgment is Y
If it is ES, the batch storage box take-in motor M10 is stopped.

At this time, the deposit reject accumulation unit 24
Alternatively, the million-yen storage box 25 is selected, and the storage operation is started for the selected storage box. Incidentally, when the bulk storage box 34 becomes empty, the storage operation of both the 1,000-yen hole storage box 25 and the 1,000-yen bill storage box 2G is started at the same time. This storage operation is performed according to the flow shown in FIG.

When the bulk storage box 34 becomes empty, the drainoid S3 is turned off and the gate G2 is returned to its original state. 33rd if not empty
Returning to the flow shown in Figure (b). Then, the solenoid S5 is turned OFF to return the gate G4. The electromagnetic clutch C1 is turned OFF, the motor M12 is turned OFF, and the main conveyance path is stopped. Next, the motor M11 is rotated forward. ,
The back-up plate 38 and the push-in plate 39 are lowered. When the push-in plate 39 descends to the push-in position, the switch 5W2
4 turns on. Motor Mll responds to detection of the pushing position.
is stopped, and the lowering of the back-up plate 38 and the push-in plate 39 is stopped. At this time, solenoid S16.817
is turned off, and the hold claw is returned to the storage box.

The motor M11 is reversed again, and the back-up plate 38 and the push-in plate 39 are raised. When the stored banknotes collide with the holding pawl, the back-up plate 38 stops. Push plate 3
9 is raised to the guide position and the switch 5W23 is turned on, the motor M11 driving the back-up plate 38 and the push-in plate 39 upward stops.

The number of ten thousand yen bills stored in the ten thousand yen bill storage box is added to the number P of ten thousand yen bills stored in the current high memory, and the result is stored. The number of 1,000 yen bills stored in the thousand yen bill storage box is added to the current number O of 1,000 yen bills stored in the memory, and the result is stored. The number of rejected tickets stored in the rejected ticket storage box is calculated as the sum of the input number Q of 10,000 yen bills and the number of input 1,000 yen bills, and the subtracted value of the number stored in the 10,000 yen hole storage box 25 and the 1,000 yen bill storage box 26. The value is added to Q and stored. Deposit/withdrawal current high memory R and S values q and f
are added to obtain a new current amount, and this amount is stored. After this process is completed, the mode switching button is pressed and the deposit/withdrawal device is returned to the normal transaction mode.

FIG. 34 shows the flow of banknotes by solid arrows when they are replenished in leaf units (one banknote at a time) from the group recycling device i[11. According to this embodiment, the group recycling device [11 is the deposit/withdrawal device 2] that runs behind the ATM.
Replenishment at the leaf level is initiated by binding to the leaf.

This group recycling device 11 is, for example,
A device is used to replenish banknotes in units of 2-97915. That is, the group recycling device 11
Therefore, for example, when the million yen slot is replenished in the deposit/withdrawal device 2, the banknotes are guided to the banknote inspection section 18 via the gates G3 and G4 as shown by solid arrows. This banknote inspection section 18
The banknotes are sent to the million yen storage box 25 via the gate G1, and are stored in the million yen storage box 25 through the gates 1 to G7.

In the embodiment shown in FIG. 34, croup recycling is performed in the middle of the leaf, but supplementary banknotes can be brought in as a bundle. In this case, bundles of coins are brought in through the same route as in the embodiment shown in FIG. 23, and banknotes are replenished. in this case,
As the group recycling device 11, a banknote bundle automatic replenishment device shown in FIG. 35 is used. This device has motor 13
A lower unit 130a is equipped with a drive vehicle 131 that is driven by a drive wheel 131 and can run on rails 115, and an upper unit 130 is placed on top of the lower unit 130a.
It is equipped with a mobile cart 114 made up of b. The upper unit 130b can be raised and lowered relative to the lower unit 130a by means of a lifting motor 139, a gear 140 and a rack gear 41 interlocked therewith. Further, the upper unit 30b includes a recycling control device 136, an operation keyboard 143, and a liquid crystal display 144.
is built-in. Furthermore, an optical communication type transceiver 150 is provided, which performs optical communication with the transceiver provided in each ATM and connects the movable trolley 1 of the group recycling device 11.
14, transmits and receives control signals for self-running, stopping, etc.

A movable safe unit 100 that can be moved back and forth by an advance/retreat drive motor 142 is provided on the upper unit 130a. This mobile safe unit 100 includes a motor 10.
A conveyor belt 101 that is rotated in forward and reverse directions by 2 is provided. A banknote bundle is fed to this conveyor belt 101 by a bending rubber roller 105 . A cutter 104 driven by a rotary solenoid 103 is disposed between the conveyor belt 101 and the rubber roller 104. This cutter 1
04 is provided for cutting the band of the banknote bundle.

When the band is cut, the banknote bundle is bent by the pushing force of the rubber roller 105, and the band is cut by the cutter 104 using this bending. For this purpose, the conveyor belt 1
01 and the rubber row 5105 are configured to be driven independently. A bundle of banknotes with a band (a bundle of 100 bills or a bundle of 1000 bills for replenishment) 106 is placed on the backup 108 . The backup 108 is urged upward by a rising spring 109, and can place eight bundles of 100 sheets. The banknote bundle pushing claw 107 pushes out the banknote bundle 106
The rubber roller 105 is driven to send out one bundle at a time to the rubber roller 105.

The group recycling device 11 requires replenishment A
When moved to the TV, a bundle of banknotes, for example, a bundle of -10,000 yen banknotes, is removed from the movable safe unit and refilled from the rear replenishment port 2a of the deposit/withdrawal device 2. As shown in FIG. 23, the banknote bundle replenished from the replenishment port 2a is transferred to a transport path bell, which runs at a low speed.
The money is transported to the deposit/withdrawal bank 13 by the holder. The banknote bundles in the deposit/withdrawal hopper 13 are fed out one by one and conveyed to the million yen hole storage box 25 via the banknote inspection section 18, and the storage box 25 is replenished.

In the case of partial evacuation, inspection, or loading, banknotes are delivered to the mobile safe unit in units of 100 banknotes.

In this case, 100 banknotes can be pulled into the mobile safe in a bundle when receiving the banknotes.

In the deposit/withdrawal device as described above, the banknotes may jam in the conveyance path during the conveyance of the banknotes. In this case, unmanned automation cannot be achieved by opening the inside of the deposit/withdrawal device to clear the jam. However, according to this invention, jams can also be automatically cleared.

This is because, according to the present invention, the transport system has the following three features. That is, 1. Banknotes can be transported in bundles, and 28 bundles can be transported at low speed; 3. Low-speed conveyance can be performed in both forward and reverse directions. By utilizing these features, jams can be automatically cleared.

Jams generally occur near the gate, and a bill detector (bill sensor) consisting of a photo sensor or the like is provided in front of the gate to detect the passage of bills and determine the gate activation timing. This sensor is used to detect jamming of banknotes at the gate. In other words, the banknotes being conveyed pass the sensor in a predetermined time, but when the banknotes become jammed at the gate and stay at the sensor position, the sensor takes a long time to detect the banknotes, and the occurrence of a jam is determined based on this detection time length. Ru. Another method is jam detection called shift control. This is a method of confirming that banknotes are being conveyed between two adjacent sensors for a predetermined period of time. In this method, a jam is not detected when the photosensor detects darkness, but a jam is determined to occur when a banknote that has passed through a previous sensor does not reach the next sensor within a predetermined time. Therefore,
This jam detection is a bright detection.

FIG. 36 to FIG. 39 show the occurrence of a jam and its release. In FIG. 36, the upper and lower conveyor belts B1. A state is shown in which the banknotes being conveyed while being held by B2 collide with the gate G, and two or three banknotes are jammed at the gate. At this time,
The occurrence of a jam is detected by the sensor described above. In response to this jam detection, the conveyor belt 81. B2 is run in the opposite direction for a predetermined period of time, and the banknotes ¥ are evacuated from gate G (FIG. 37). In this case, the reversal time is determined to be the minimum necessary. Next, Goo 1-G is moved below the conveyor belt (FIG. 38). Once again, the conveyor belts B1 and B2 are run in the banknote conveyance direction (FIG. 39). At this time, the jammed banknotes will be transported through the gate,
The jam will be cleared automatically.

Regarding this jam, in the case of a deposit transaction, if a jam occurs before the depositor completes the deposit transaction, the gate is directed toward the deposit/withdrawal port. On the other hand, in a withdrawal transaction, if a jam occurs before the transaction is completed, the gate operates to collect the banknotes into the reject storage box.

However, after the state shown in FIG. 37, if the jammed bill is to be transported in the direction in which the gate G is located, that is, in the downward direction in the figure, the transport system can be moved even if the state of the gate G is not changed. Since it is configured to allow a bundle of 100 bills to pass through, jammed banknotes can easily pass through Guto G.

[Effects of the Invention] According to the present invention, the bulk storage section stores a bulk storage box for storing various banknotes, a banknote that is inappropriate for withdrawal, that is, a reject ticket, a reject ticket storage box, and a collection ticket that has been forgotten to be taken out. Since the storage box is provided integrally, these banknotes can be handled all at once. In addition, since the bulk storage section is removably installed on the deposit/withdrawal device, you can replace the bulk storage section@
It is easy to take in and take out banknotes during loading and inspection.
