FIG. 6 is a side view of a banknote deposit and withdrawal device showing the flow of banknotes at the time of deposit transaction, and FIG. 7 is a flowchart showing the flow of the process at the time of deposit transaction. First, the deposit transaction will be described.

The deposit transaction is performed when the deposit transaction key installed on the operation key of the customer control unit 72 of the automatic transaction apparatus is operated by the customer so that the card is inserted into the card reader / writer 70 and the passbook is inserted into the account book organ. When communication between the control unit 75 of the apparatus and the center is performed and it is confirmed that there is no problem, the command at the start of deposit is sent from the control unit 75 of the automatic transaction apparatus to the control unit 23 of the banknote deposit and withdrawal apparatus 1. (SAI)

When the control unit 23 of the banknote deposit and withdrawal device 1 receives the command for starting the deposit processing, the control unit 23 switches the internal state to the deposit mode, rotates the customer entrance 2 to the customer position indicated by the solid line, and then opens the shutter 2a. Wait for the deposit to be made. When it is confirmed that the customer has inserted the bill into the customer service port 2, the shutter 2a is closed and the customer service port 2 is rotated to the separated and integrated position indicated by the dashed line.

When the port 2 is in the separated and integrated position, the conveying motors 20a to 20c are rotated in the cw direction to drive the conveying paths 5a to 5c (SA2) and the separate and integrated mechanism parts 3 and 18. The rollers in the cw direction, and the rollers in the separate integration mechanism parts 11a to 11c are rotated in the ccw direction (SA3).

As described above, the banknotes inserted into the customer service port 2 are driven one by one, and the transfer motors 20a to 20c are driven to rotate in the cw direction. The banknote which was used is first conveyed to the discriminating part 4 by the conveyance path 5a (SA4).

In the discrimination part 4, the authenticity of the conveyed banknote is discriminated. The authenticity discrimination of a banknote determines the kind of money of a banknote, and also determines the authenticity of a banknote.

The discriminating unit 4 first detects an optical or magnetic pattern such as reflected light or transmitted light from the shape or figure of the inserted banknote.

Of the detected optical or magnetic patterns, the difference between gold species, such as the position where the gap is made, is compared with a preset reference value.

As a result, the paper type of the inserted banknote is judged.

Next, the whole detected pattern is compared with the reference value previously set for each species.

As a result, the authenticity of the bill is judged by the magnitude of the similarity or the magnitude of the similarity and the combination of the detection results of the outline dimensions of the bill.

In the case of detecting an optical pattern, an LED, a photodiode, a photo transistor, or the like is used, and in the case of detecting a magnetic pattern, a magnetic head or the like is used.

8 is a block diagram of the discriminating unit 4.

This process will be described in detail using this figure.

The optical or magnetic pattern of the banknote detected by the detecting means 401 is temporarily stored by the storage means 402, and the paper type direction determining means 403 judges the paper type of the banknote based on the stored contents. The result is output to the authenticity determination means.

The authenticity determination means 404 selects and stores the reference value for which the upper limit and the lower limit of the pattern are set in advance for each species by the reference value selection means 406 based on the result of the determination of the kind of gold outputted from the decision type 403. The reference value is output to the comparing means.

The comparison means 407 compares this reference value with the storage result of the storage means 402 and outputs the comparison result to the comparison result determination means 408.

The comparison result determination means 408 determines the authenticity based on this comparison result.

9 is a graph showing a detection pattern and a reference value of a banknote.

U and l indicated by broken lines during the ninth are upper limit reference values and lower limit reference values stored in the reference memory means.

P denoted by a solid line is a detection pattern of banknotes.

The upper limit reference value is set in advance so as to be higher than the detection pattern of the true winding, and the lower limit reference value is set in advance so as to be lower than the detection pattern of the true winding.

The comparison means 407 shown in FIG. 8 compares whether the detection pattern stored in the storage means 402 is smaller than the upper limit reference value or larger than the lower limit reference value, and compares the result with the comparison result determination means 408. Output to

In the ninth part, in the e part, the detection pattern is lower than the lower limit reference value.

In such a case, the comparison result judging means judges that the counterfeit money is somewhat by e part.

The authenticity of a banknote is performed by the above.

The discriminating unit 4 also discriminates the running state at the same time as authenticating the bill.

Subsequently, when the banknote conveyed to the discriminating unit 4 is discriminated as a deposit reject banknote which is not suitable for a deposit made into a misleading or non-transfer banknote, the conveyance path of the banknote is switched by the blade 21c, and the deposit reject banknote Is integrated one by one in the deposit reject pull unit 17 by the separating and collecting mechanism 18 which is driven so that the roller rotates in the cw direction. (SA6)

In addition, when the conveyed banknote is discriminated into a banknote suitable for a deposit with a real ticket of 5,000 yen, the conveying path of the banknote is switched by the blade 21c, and the banknote is sent from the conveying path 5a to the conveying path 5b. .

At this time, the temporary holding pipes 10a to 10c provided in the deposit and withdrawal units 9a to 9c are closed and the banknotes sent to the conveying path 5b are separated and integrated mechanism parts 11a to 11c which are driven so that the rollers rotate in the ccw direction. Is integrated on the temporary holding pipes 10a to 10c. (SA7)

In this case, when the banknote conveyed to the discriminating unit 4 is discriminated by the regime of 1,000 yen ticket, it is accumulated on the temporary holding plate 10a on the gold type cassette 8a storing the 1,000 yen ticket by the blade 13a. Let's do it.

Moreover, when the banknote conveyed to the discrimination part 4 is discriminated by the regime of 10,000 yen ticket, the conveyance path of banknotes is switched by the blade 13b, and this banknote is separated from the conveyance path 5b, and the integrated accumulator part 11b is carried out. Is integrated onto the temporary holding tube 10b on the gold type cassette 8b for storing 10,000 won.

Furthermore, when the banknotes conveyed to the discriminating unit 4 are discriminated into 5,000 yen bills, the conveying path of the banknotes is switched by the blade 13c, and the banknotes are transferred by the separating and accumulating unit 11c from the conveying path 5b. It is made to adjoin on the temporary holding pipe 10c on the gold type cassette 8c which accommodates a 10,000 yen ticket.

Therein, when the banknote discriminated by the discriminating unit 4 as being suitable for deposit passes through the travel monitoring sensor 22h and the deposit reject banknote discriminated by the discriminating unit 4 as not suitable for depositing is the travel monitoring sensor ( When passing through 22i), the banknotes are counted.

After all the banknotes put into the serving port 2 come out one after another, and the banknotes are accumulated on the temporary reject pipes 10a to 10c on the gold cassettes 8a to 8c, and therein, in the deposit reject pull unit 17 (SA8). When the deposit reject banknote is accumulated in the deposit reject pull unit 17 (SA9), the deposit reject banknote is returned to the customer port 2.

10 is a side view of a banknote deposit and withdrawal device which shows the flow of a banknote at the time of deposit rejection banknote half angle.

When the deposit reject banknote is accumulated in the deposit reject pull unit 17, the control unit 23 drives the conveying motor 20a to rotate in the ccw direction, and discriminates the conveying direction of the banknote in the conveying path 5a. In the direction from the portion 4 toward the port opening 2 (SA10), the separation integrated mechanism parts 3 and 18 are driven to rotate in the ccw direction (SA11).

Thereby, the banknotes in the deposit reject pull part 17 are separated one by one by the separating and accumulating mechanism part 18, and are sent to the conveyance path 5a, and the conveyance path 5a is sent from the discriminating part 4 to the reception port 2 It is conveyed in the direction toward, and conveyed in the direction toward the catering port 2 by the separating and collecting mechanism part 3, and it is sent one by one to the catering port 2 by the separating and collecting mechanism part 3, and is integrated (SA12). ).

When the deposit reject banknote is accumulated in the entire customer opening 2 (SA13), the customer deposits the deposit reject banknote returned to the customer opening 2 by opening the shutter 2a by rotating the customer opening 2 at the customer position. It is half size to.

Alternatively, after returning the deposit rejection bill to the customer port 2, the transfer motors 20a and 20b are driven to switch in the cw direction, and the separation and integration mechanism parts 3 and 18 are rotated so that the rollers rotate in the cw direction. Drive the separation and integration mechanisms 11a to 11c so that the rollers rotate in the ccw direction, separate the banknotes from the customer service port 2, return them to the discriminating unit 4 for re-discrimination, and deposit as a result of the re-discrimination. The banknotes discriminated as suitable for the bank are accumulated on a predetermined temporary holding board, the display and the memory of the deposit amount are updated, and if the banknotes are not suitable for banking, the banknotes discriminated are accumulated again in the deposit reject pool 17.

After the re-discrimination of the deposit reject banknote returned to the customer service port 2 is completed, when the deposit reject banknote is accumulated in the deposit reject pool 17, the deposit is performed in the same operation as described above. The reject banknote is returned to the customer service port 2 at the deposit resort pool 17, and is engraved by the customer (SA14).

When the banknotes suitable for depositing among the deposited banknotes put by the customer by the above-described operation are accumulated on the temporary holding boards 10a to 10c and the deposit rejected banknotes are returned to the reception port 2, the control unit 23 automatically operates. The response of the completion of the counting of the deposit money is transmitted to the control unit 75 of the trading device, and the number counted for each type of money is divided into a circulation bill and a 5,000 yen bill, which are the regimes of 1,000 yen and 10,000 yen bills, as the data. Add.

The control unit 75 of the automatic transaction device receives this data, calculates the amount of money according to the type of gold and the amount of the sum, and displays it on the display unit 73 installed on the customer operation unit 72 to prompt the confirmation of the customer and deposit the money. It counts as a number and memorizes it (SA15).

Then, the customer checks the displayed amount and operates the check button of the customer control unit. If there is a deposit rejected bill, it is received at the customer service port 2 (SA16). First, the temporary holding pipes 10a and 10b are opened, respectively. 1,000 yen tickets accumulated on the temporary holding board are stored in the gold cassettes 8a and 8b, respectively (SA17).

In addition, the 5,000 yen ticket accumulated on the temporary holding plate 10c is stored in the reject cassette 15 according to the procedure described below.

That is, FIG. 11 is a side view of the banknote deposit and withdrawal device which shows the flow of banknotes when storing 5,000 yen tickets, while the conveying motors 20a and 20b are driven to rotate in the ccw direction, while the conveying motor 20c rotates in the cw direction. Drive the separation integrated mechanism portion 11c so that the roller rotates in the cw direction and separates 5,000 yen tickets accumulated on the temporary holding plate 10c by the separation accumulation mechanism portion 11c one by one. Send to (5b).

The 5,000 yen ticket sent to the conveyance path 5b is conveyed from the conveyance path 5b to the conveyance path 5a, and the conveyance path of banknotes is switched by the blade 21b, and is conveyed to the conveyance path 5c and rejected. It is stored in the cassette 15 (SA18).

By the above-described operation, after the receipt of the money type according to the money type is completed and the predetermined processing is performed on the card or bank account, the processing of the deposit transaction is completed by half-handling the customer.

Here, the abnormal running banknotes or abnormal banknotes in the deposit reject banknotes are difficult to accumulate as compared to the normal banknotes, and there is a possibility of causing a defective stacking.

If the abnormal running banknote or abnormal banknote is stored in the deposit reject pool section 17 and then returned to the customer service port 2, the abnormal running banknote or the abnormal banknote is separated due to the accumulation failure occurred at the time of the separation at the time of separation by the separation and integration mechanism section 18. It may become impossible, or it may become a separation defect and a conveyance jam may generate | occur | produce and may not return to the customer port 2.

For this reason, if there is an abnormal running banknote or an abnormal banknote, it is good to return it directly to the customer service port 2, without storing it in the deposit reject pool part 17.

12 is a flowchart showing another embodiment of the processing of the deposit reject banknote in the deposit transaction of the present embodiment described above.

The processing of the banknote discriminated as suitable for the deposit in the discriminating unit 4 and the processing of the authentic reject banknote discriminated into the upper right among the deposit reject banknotes are the same as those described in FIG.

First, when the deposit transaction key installed in the operation key of the customer control unit 72 of the automatic transaction apparatus is operated by the customer and the card is inserted into the card reader / writer 70 and the passbook is inserted into the bank account length 71, the automatic transaction is performed. When communication is performed between the control unit 75 of the apparatus and the center, and it is confirmed that there is no problem, the control unit 75 of the automatic transaction apparatus transmits a command for starting a deposit to the control unit 23 of the banknote deposit and withdrawal apparatus 1 (SB1). ).

When the control unit 23 of the banknote deposit and withdrawal device 1 receives the command for starting the deposit processing, the control unit 23 switches the internal state to the deposit mode, rotates the customer entrance 2 to the customer position indicated by the solid line, and then opens the shutter 2a. Wait for the deposit to be made.

When it is confirmed that the customer has inserted the banknote into the customer service port 2, the shutter 2a is closed and the customer service port 2 is rotated to the separated integrated position represented by the dashed-dotted line.

When the port 2 is in a separate integrated position, the conveying motors 20a to 20c are rotated in the cw direction to drive the conveying paths 5a to 5c (SB2), and the rollers of the separate and integrated mechanism parts 3 and 18 are provided. Rotate the rollers in the cw direction and the separation and integration mechanism parts 11a to 11c in the ccw direction (SB3).

As described above, the separate integration mechanism 3 is driven, and the bills inserted into the customer service port 2 are separated one by one, and the conveying motors 20a to 20c are driven to rotate in the cw direction. The banknote is first conveyed to the discriminating part 4 by the conveyance path 5a (SB4).

In the discrimination section 4, the authenticity of the conveyed banknote is discriminated and the running state is discriminated (SB5). Among the deposit rejected banknotes in which the conveyed banknote is not suitable for depositing, the banknote size is normal but is not discriminated by true ticket. If it is true or false, if it is a true reject banknote (SB6), the conveyance path of a banknote is switched by the blade 21c, and this authentic reject banknote is separated and integrated mechanism part 18 which is driven so that a roller may rotate to cw direction. It is integrated one by one in the deposit reject pool 17 (SB7). Moreover, when the conveyed banknote is discriminated into the banknote suitable for the deposit made into the real ticket 5000 yen, the conveyance path of a banknote is switched by the blade 21C, and this banknote is sent to the conveyance path 5a.

At this time, the temporary holding plates 10a to 10c provided in the deposit and withdrawal units 9a to 9c are closed, and the banknotes sent to the conveying 5b are temporarily held by the direct mechanism parts 11a to 11c driven to rotate the roller in the ccw direction. Integrated on 10a to 10c (SB8).

Here, when the banknote conveyed to the discriminating part 4 is discriminated by the regime of 1,000 yen ticket, the conveyance path | route of a banknote is switched by the blade 13a, and this banknote is transferred from the conveyance path 5b to the separation integrated mechanism part 11a. Thereby, it accumulates on the temporary holding plate 10a on the gold type cassette 8a storing 1,000 yen tickets.

Moreover, when the banknote conveyed to the discrimination part 4 is discriminated by the regime of a 10,000 yen ticket, the conveyance path of banknotes is switched by the blade 13b, and this banknote is conveyed by the separating-integrating mechanism part 11b in the conveyance path 5b. It accumulates on the temporary holding plate 10b on the gold type cassette 8b storing 10,000 yen tickets.

When the banknote conveyed to the temporary holding board 4 on the discriminating part 4 is discriminated by 5,000 yen bill, the conveyance path of banknotes is switched by the blade 13c, and this banknote is conveyed by the conveyance path 5b. The integrated accumulator portion 11c accumulates on the temporary holding plate 11c on the gold type cassette 8c, which accommodates 10,000 yen tickets.

Also, when the discriminating unit 4 is bonded to the deposit, the authenticity banknote travels when the discriminated banknote passes through the traveling monitoring sensor 22h and in the deposit reject banknote discriminated as not suitable for depositing into the discriminating unit 4. The bill is counted when passing through the monitoring sensor 22i.

When the banknotes put into the customer service port 2 are sent out in order, and the banknotes are further accumulated on the temporary holding plates 10a to 10c on the gold cassettes 8a to 8c (SB10), The authentic reject banknote is returned to the waiting port 2.

That is, when the authentic reject banknote is accumulated in the deposit reject pull unit 17, the control unit 23 drives the conveying motor 20a to rotate in the ccw direction, and conveys the banknote in the conveying path 5a. In the direction from the discriminating unit 4 to the reception port 2 (SB11), and drives the separation and integration mechanism unit 3 so that the roller rotates in the cw direction (SB12).

As a result, the banknotes in the deposit rejecting unit 17 are separated into pieces one by one by the separating and collecting mechanism unit 18, and are sent to the conveying path 5a so that the inner passage 5a is separated from the discriminating unit 4 by the receiving port 2. It is conveyed in the direction toward, and it is sent by the separating-integrating mechanism part 3 to the customer port 2 one by one, and is integrated (SB13).

When the authenticity reject banknote is accumulated in the entire hospitality port 2 (SB14), the authenticity banknote 2 is rotated to a customer position, the shutter 2a is opened to return the authenticity banknote returned to the hospitality port 2. Halftone to the customer.

Alternatively, after returning the true rejection bill to the customer service port 2, the transfer motors 20a and 20b are driven to rotate in the cw direction, and the separation and integration mechanism parts 3 and 18 are rotated to rotate in the cw direction. Drive the separation integrated mechanisms 11a to 11c so that the roller rotates in the ccw direction, separate the banknotes from the reception port 2, return them to the discriminating unit 4, and re- discriminate them. The banknotes discriminated as suitable for depositing are accumulated on a predetermined temporary holding plate, the display and memory of the deposit amount are updated, and the authenticity reject banknotes and the banknotes discriminated again are accumulated in the deposit reject pool 17 again.

In this case, when the authenticity reject banknotes are accumulated in the deposit reject pull unit 17 after the re-discrimination of the authenticity reject banknotes returned to the reception port 2 is completed, the authenticity rejection banks are operated in the same operation as described above. The banknote is returned to the customer deposit port 2 to the deposit eject pull unit 17, and is embossed to the customer (SB15).

Of the banknotes put by the customer by the above-described operation, the banknotes suitable for the deposit are accumulated on the temporary holding plates 10a to 10c, and when the authentic reject banknotes are returned to the reception port 2, the control unit 23 The automatic transaction apparatus sends a response to the control unit 75 for the completion of the counting of the deposit money, and adds the number counted for each type of money as the data divided into 1,000 yen tickets and 10,000 yen tickets. The control unit 75 of the automatic transaction apparatus receives this data, calculates the amount of money and the total amount for each kind, and displays it on the display unit 73 installed in the customer control unit 72 to prompt the customer and confirm the amount of deposit. It is toasted and remembered as (SB16). Then, the customer checks the displayed amount to operate the confirmation button of the customer control unit 72, and if there is a status authentic reject banknote, receive it from the customer sphere 2 (SB17), the temporary temporary storage tubes 10a and 10b. 1,000 yen tickets and 10,000 yen tickets accumulated on each temporary holding plate are stored in the gold type cassettes 8a and 8b, respectively (SB18).

In addition, the 5,000 yen ticket accumulated on the temporary holding plate 10c is stored in the reject cassette 15 according to the procedure described below.

That is, the transfer motors 20a and 20b are driven to rotate in the ccw direction, the transfer motor 20c is driven to rotate in the cw direction, and the separation and integration mechanism part 11c is driven to further rotate the rollers in the cw direction. 5,000 yen tickets accumulated on the temporary holding plate 10c are separated one by one by the separate direct mechanism part 11c, and are conveyed from the conveying path 5b to the conveying path 5a by the blade 21b. The conveyance path of a banknote is switched, and it is conveyed further to the conveyance path 5c, and is accommodated in the reject cassette 15 (SB19).

By the above-described operation, the deposit of each kind of money receipts is completed, and further, the processing of the deposit transaction is completed by performing predetermined processing on the card or bank account and then half-handling the customer (SB20).

Here, if the banknote conveyed by the judgment of SB6 is discriminated as an abnormal running banknote or an abnormal banknote among the deposit reject banknotes which are not suitable for depositing, the processing as shown below to return the banknote to the customer port 2; Is done.

That is, FIG. 13 is a side view of a banknote deposit and withdrawal device showing the flow of banknotes at the time of abnormal running banknotes or half bills, and FIG. If it is discriminated as a banknote or an abnormal banknote, rotation of the separation integrated mechanism part 3 and the conveying motor 20a is stopped (SB21).

Next, the separation and integration mechanism 3 is driven so that the roller rotates in the ccw direction, and the conveying motor 20a is rotated in ccw. It reverses in the direction toward the sphere 2 (SB22), and the whole of the banknotes on the conveyance path 5a containing the banknotes discriminated by the abnormal running banknotes or abnormal banknotes (24a to 24g in FIG. 13). The banknote to be shown) is returned and accumulated in the customer service 2 (SB23).

Also, the bills 24h to 24k on the conveying path 5b in advance of the bills discriminated by the abnormal running bill or the abnormal bill are continuously rotated by the conveying motor 20b in the cw direction. Are integrated on the

When the banknote on the conveyance path 5a is accumulated in the customer service port 2 (SB24), it is judged whether the authentic reject banknote is accumulated in the deposit reject pull unit 17, and the mechanism part 18 is driven (SB26). ).

As a result, the authentic reject banknotes accumulated in the deposit reject pull unit 17 are sent out one by one to be sent to the conveying path 5a, and the conveying roller 20a is rotated in the ccw direction. And the conveying roller 20a is being rotated in the ccw direction, and is sent to the conveying path 5a so that the authentic rejected bill is conveyed from the discriminating part 4 toward the serving port 2 direction. And integrated into the portlet 2 by the separate integration mechanism unit 3 (SB27).

When the authenticity reject banknotes are accumulated in the customer service port 2 and finished, and the banknotes classified as abnormal travel banks or abnormal banknotes and the authenticity reject paper money are accumulated in the customer service port 2 (SB28), the customer service port 2 is placed in the customer's office. By rotating to the position, the shutter 2a is opened, and the banknote and the authentic reject banknote discriminated by the abnormal running banknote or the abnormal banknote returned to the customer port 2 are embossed to the customer (SB29).

Banknotes suitable for depositing among the banknotes put by the customer by the above-described operation are accumulated on the temporary holding pipes 10a to 10c, and the banknotes classified as abnormal running banks or abnormal banknotes and the authenticity reject banknotes are received by the customer port (2). After returning to the card, the above-described operations of SB16 to SB20 are executed, and after confirming the customer's confirmation and receiving half-width bills, the 1,000 yen and 10,000 yen tickets are stored in the gold type cassettes 8a and 8b, and the 5,000 yen tickets are rejected. It is stored in the cassette 15 and the deposit transaction is completed.

As described above, when the bank note and the true reject bank note discriminated by the abnormal running bank or abnormal bank bill are returned to the customer port 2 and embossed to the customer, the customer may be prompted again.

FIG. 15 is an explanatory diagram showing an example of a screen for prompting a customer to reinsert half-width bills. The bill 2 and the authenticity reject bill that are discriminated by abnormal running bills or abnormal bills are returned to the reception door 2 to release the shutter 2a. At the time of opening, the control unit 75 of the automatic transaction apparatus displays a word on the display unit 73 of the customer operation unit 72 as shown in FIG. 15 and prompts the customer to re-enter it.

As a result, when the customer takes out the bills, arranges them, and puts them into the customer service port 2, the customer closes the shutter 2a, separates the customer service port 2 and rotates the integrated position to execute the processing in SB2. The banknotes are accumulated on the temporary holding pipes 10a to 10c, and the true rejected banknotes among the deposit rejected banknotes which are not suitable for depositing are accumulated in the depositing reject pool 17.

If the whole banknote continues to be discharged from the reception door 2 and accumulated in a predetermined place, if there is a genuine reject banknote, it is embossed to the customer, prompting the customer's confirmation, and confirming the customer's confirmation and the half-note banknote. After receipt, the 1,000 yen and 10,000 yen tickets are stored in the gold type cassettes 8a and 8b, and the 5,000 yen tickets are stored in the reject cassette 15 to complete the deposit transaction.

In the meantime, if the banknote is classified as an abnormal running banknote or abnormal banknote, the transfer of the banknotes is stopped at the conveying path 5a at that point, and returned to the customer service gate 2 to be returned to the customer and deposited with the banknotes previously collected. Continue the deal.

As described above, in the step where the abnormal running banknote or the banknote discriminated by the abnormal banknote is returned to the customer service port 2, it may be attempted again without being embossed by the customer.

That is, when the banknote on the conveyance path 5a including the abnormal running banknote or the banknote discriminated as the abnormal banknote is accumulated in the service port 2 as described above, the conveying motor 20a is rotated in the cw direction again. The separation and integration mechanism 3 is driven so that the roller rotates in the cw direction, the banknotes returned to the customer service port 2 are collected again, and the processing in SB4 is executed to form the temporary holding plates 10a to 10c suitable for depositing. The authentic reject banknotes are accumulated in the deposit reject pool 17 among the deposit reject banknotes which are not suitable for the deposit.

And if the whole banknote is continuously sent out from the customer service port 2 and accumulated in a predetermined place, if there is a genuine reject bank note, it is embossed to the customer, prompting the customer's confirmation, and receiving the customer's confirmation and the half-bank note. Thereafter, 1,000 yen tickets and 10,000 yen tickets are stored in the gold type cassettes 8a and 8b, and 5,000 yen tickets are stored in the reject cassette 15 to complete the deposit transaction.

Also during this period, if the banknote is discriminated into an abnormally running banknote or an abnormal banknote, the conveyance of the banknote is stopped at the conveying path 5a and returned to the customer service port 2, and the banknote is deposited into the customer and collected into the banknote previously collected. Continue the deal.

Moreover, although the detection of the banknote running state is performed by the discriminating unit 4 in the above embodiment, the detecting sensor 22a is provided on the conveying path 5a from the catering port 2 to the discriminating unit 4. To 22f).

Here, the traveling monitoring sensors 22a to 22f are provided with light-emitting elements and light-receiving elements disposed opposite to each other so as to sandwich the conveying path 5a, as described above, from both the light-emitting element to the light-receiving element. When the banknote does not pass because the optical axis traverses the conveying path 5a vertically, the light generated by the light emitting element cannot be detected by the light receiving element.

For this reason, when the banknotes are conveyed normally, the light receivers on the left and the right do not receive light at the same time, and when the time determined by the length and the conveying speed of the banknote conveyance passes, the light receivers on the left and right receive light at the same time. do.

When the banknotes are continuous, the light in the light receiving element is blocked by the next banknote when a predetermined time elapses.

As a result, the meandering amount of bills conveyed at the timing at which the left and right light receiving elements do not receive light is detected and meandering more than a predetermined amount is determined to be an abnormal running banknote.

Moreover, when the length of the conveyance direction of a banknote is detected in the passage time of the banknote which does not receive light in left and right light receiving elements, and it differs from a predetermined length, it is discriminated that it is an abnormal banknote which generate | occur | produced the cleavage and the snip.

Furthermore, it is determined that the driving bank is an abnormality in which a chain is generated if the left and right light receiving elements that do not receive the light have a shorter interval from receiving the light to not receiving the light again.

Also, the output of the light receiving element is processed by the sensor control unit 23a and sent to the control unit 23 to determine the running state of the banknote by the control unit 23.

For example, when the banknote passes through the traveling monitoring sensor 22a, the banknote discriminates that the banknote is an abnormal running banknote or an abnormal banknote. At this point, the control unit 23 separates the integrated integration mechanism unit 3 and the transfer motor as described in SB21. The rotation of 20a is stopped, and then the processing in SB22 is executed to return the abnormality running banknote or the banknote discriminated by the abnormal banknote to the customer port 2.

In this way, when the abnormal running bank or abnormal bank is detected by the driving monitoring sensor 22a, the return distance of the bank bill discriminated by the abnormal traveling bank or abnormal bank becomes shorter when it is returned to the passenger port. The probability of occurrence is reduced.

Similarly, when the banknote passes through the traveling monitoring sensors 22b to 22f between the discriminating unit 4 and discriminates that the banknote is an abnormal running banknote or an abnormal banknote, the separate integrated mechanism unit 3 and Stopping the rotation of the conveying motor 20a and returning the abnormal running banknote or the banknote discriminated by abnormal banknotes to the customer service gate 2, the return distance of the banknote discriminated by the abnormal banknote or abnormal banknotes is returned when returning to the hospitality gate. Since it becomes short compared with the case returned by the discriminating part 4, the processing time is shortened and the probability of jam occurrence at the time of return is reduced.

As described above, in each of the embodiments in which the banknote is discriminated into an abnormal running bank or an abnormal bank bank and the banknote is returned to the hospitality port 2, when the banknote on the conveyance path 5 is returned to the hospitality port 2, the separate integrated mechanism part (3) and the rotation of the conveying motor 20a at a lower speed than usual to reduce the conveying speed of the bills and to accumulate the bills in the catering port 2 to suppress the occurrence of accumulation jams in the catering port 2. do.

That is, the control unit 23 can be controlled at the same speed as the case of rotating the separation integrated mechanism unit 3 and the transfer motor 20a in the cw direction and at a lower speed than this, and the control unit 23 If the discrimination unit 4 or the travel monitoring sensor 22a discriminates that the bill is an abnormal running bank or an abnormal bank, as shown in FIG. 13, the rotation of the separate integrated mechanism unit 3 and the transfer motor 20a is performed. After stopping the roller, the separation and integration mechanism unit 3 is driven to rotate in the ccw direction, and the transfer motor 20a is rotated in the ccw direction. At this time, the separation and integration mechanism unit 3 and the transfer motor 20a are low speed. Control to rotate.

16 is a side view of a banknote deposit and withdrawal device showing the flow of banknotes in a withdrawal transaction.

In the withdrawal transaction, the withdrawal transaction key of the customer control unit 72 is operated by the customer, the card is inserted into the card reader / writer 70, and the encryption number is inputted so that the control unit 75 and the center of the automatic transaction device are entered. When communication is performed and it is confirmed that there is no problem, the control unit 75 of the automatic transaction apparatus transmits a command for starting a withdrawal process to the control unit 23 of the banknote deposit and withdrawal device.

When the control unit 23 of the paper money deposit and withdrawal device receives the command for starting the withdrawal processing, it switches the internal state to the withdrawal mode and waits for the instruction of the paper type and the number of paper money to be released.

When the withdrawal amount is input by the customer, in response to the withdrawal amount, 10,000 yen tickets and 1,000 yen tickets are sent out from the gold cassettes 8a to 8c in order.

First, the conveying motors 20a and 20b are rotated in the ccw direction, the conveying motor 20c is rotated in the cw direction, and the separation and integration mechanisms 11a to 11c are driven so that the rollers rotate in the cw direction. The separating integrated mechanism part 3 is driven to rotate in the ccw direction.

Next, 10,000 yen tickets are conveyed one by one by raising the stage of either the gold cassettes 8b or the gold cassettes 8c and bringing the 10,000 yen ticket into contact with the rollers of the separate integration mechanism portions 11b and 11c. It is sent to the furnace 5b.

If the 10,000 yen ticket is sent to the conveyance path 5b, it counts when it passes through the driving monitoring sensor 22k or 22i, and the control part 23 monitors the number of 10,000 yen tickets which are continuously sent out.

When the 10,000 yen ticket is sent from the return path 5b to the return path 5a and passes through the discrimination part 4, the front and back are different depending on whether it is the gold type as specified, and if the 10,000 yen ticket is suitable for withdrawal, the blade 21b. By this, the conveyance path is switched and the conveyance path 5a is conveyed further.

Here, the 10,000 yen ticket discriminated from the discriminating part 4 to the back surface is switched by the blade 7, and the conveyance path is switched, passes through the front and rear inversion mechanism part 6, reverses the front and back, and receives the exit port 2 ), And the 10,000 yen ticket which is discriminated from the discriminating part 4 to the surface is sent directly to the serving port 2 without inverting the front and back, and is separated into the front and rear door by the separating and collecting mechanism 3. 10,000 yen ticket which summarized the list is accumulated.

Also, in the discriminating unit 4, the banknotes discriminated as out-of-circulation notes such as abnormal transfer banknotes and hand bills are transferred to the conveying path 5c by the blade 21b, and are sent to the conveying path 5c. It is sent to the reject cassette 15.

And we stop sending out 10,000 yen of the necessary number of copies in order.

When the accumulation of 10,000 yen ticket is completed, the stage 3b of the gold-type cassette 8a is raised, and the 1,000 yen ticket is brought into contact with the roller of the separating / integrating mechanism part 11a, the same as in the case of the 10,000 yen ticket described above. Each piece is sent to the conveying path 5b.

If a 1,000 yen ticket is sent to the conveyance path 5b, a count will be performed when passing through the traveling monitoring sensor 22j, and the control part 23 will monitor the number of 1,000 yen tickets which are sent out one by one.

The 1,000 yen ticket is sent from the return route 5b to the return route 5a, and when it passes through the discrimination section 4, whether it is a gold type as specified, whether the front and back or hands are distinguished, and the blade is suitable for withdrawal. The conveyance path is switched by 21b, and the conveyance path 5a is conveyed further.

Here, the 1,000 yen ticket discriminated from the discriminating part 4 to the back surface is reversed by the blade 7 so that the conveying path is switched to pass the front and rear inversion mechanism part 6, thereby inverting the front and back to the hospitality port 2. The conveyance path is switched and the front and rear inversion mechanism part 6 is inverted, and the front and rear sides are inverted and sent to the reception port 2, and the 1,000 yen ticket discriminated from the discriminating part 4 to the surface is inverted. It is sent directly to the customer service port 2, and the 1000 yen ticket which arranges the front and back together with 10,000 yen in the customer service door 2 by the separate integrated mechanism part 3 is accumulated.

Also, the banknotes classified into out-of-circuit bills, such as abnormal conveyance banknotes and hand bills, by the discriminating unit 4 are transferred to the conveying path 5c by the blade 21b, and sent to the conveying path 5c. Is sent to the reject cassette 15.

We will continue to send out the 1,000 yen tickets you need and drop the stage to stop the 1,000 yen tickets.

When the accumulation of banknotes as specified ends, the customer entrance 2 is rotated to the customer position, the shutter 2a is opened, and the withdrawal money is delivered to the customer.

And when it detects that a customer pulls out a banknote by the sensor etc. which are not shown in figure, the shutter 2a is closed.

When the withdrawal of the designated number of purchases is completed, the control unit 23 returns the withdrawal response to the control unit 75 of the automatic transaction apparatus and adds the withdrawal type and its number as data.

The control unit 75 of the automatic transaction apparatus receives this and counts and stores it as the number of withdrawals.

If the customer forgets to take the bills, the reject cassette 15 is stored as forgotten bills.

That is, FIG. 17 is a side view of the banknote deposit and withdrawal device which shows the flow of a banknote at the time of collection | recovering the banknote which it forgot to take.

When it is detected that the customer has forgotten to take the bill, the shutter 2a is closed, and the customer entrance 2 is rotated to the separate accumulation position.

Next, the conveying motors 20a, 20b, and 20c are rotated in the cw direction, and the separation and integration mechanism 3 is driven so that the roller rotates in the cw direction. It sends to the conveyance path 5a.

The forgotten bills to be sent to the conveying path 5a are further conveyed to the conveying paths 5b and 5c and sent to the reject cassette 15.

18 is a side view of a banknote deposit and withdrawal device showing the flow of banknotes at the time of banknote replenishment.

When the attendant presses the replenishment key down by the operation key of the internal control unit 74, the control unit 75 of the automatic transaction device receives this input and transmits a command for instructing the refill operation to start the replenishment operation.

When the control section 23 of the banknote receipt and withdrawal device receives the command of starting the refilling operation, the internal state is switched to the replenishment mode so that the end detector 25a of the batch cassette 14 is not end-detected, that is, the bill to be replenished. Check that it is set in advance.

In the case of end-detection, the response is returned by adding information which cannot be operated, and this processing is stopped.

When it is confirmed that end detection is not performed, replenishment operation starts.

First, the conveying motors 20a, 20b, and 20c are rotated in the cw direction, and the supplementary bill separating mechanism part 65 and the separating and collecting mechanism parts 11a to 11c are driven to obtain a banknote set on the stage 61. It is sent out one by one and sent to the conveyance path 5a.

The banknote sent to the conveyance path 5a passes through the discriminating part 4, and authenticity discrimination, correct loss discrimination, and running state discrimination are performed at this time.

When the banknote which passed the discrimination part 4 is sent to the conveyance path 5b, and it is discriminated by the discrimination part 4 that the conveyed banknote is a banknote loaded for withdrawal by the regime of 1,000 yen ticket, it is made by the blade 13a. The conveyance path is switched so that the banknote is integrated on the stage 36 of the gold type cassette 8a by the separating and collecting mechanism portion 11a.

Moreover, when the conveyed banknote is discriminated by the discriminating unit 4 as being a banknote loaded for withdrawal by the regime of 10,000 yen, the conveyance path is switched by the blade 13b or 13c, and the banknote is separated and integrated mechanism part 11b. Or 11c) on the stage 37 or 38 of the gold type cassette 8b or 8c.

This operation is repeated until there is no banknote set in the stage 61 and the detection of the end detector 25a occurs. However, the number of stacks of any one of the stages 36, 37, and 38 is allowed to be held (for example, 100 sheets). ), Stops the operation of the supplementary paper money separating mechanism unit 65, and lowers the stage of the paper type cassette which has reached the allowable allowance by a motor (not shown) corresponding to the allowable allowance.

When the stage is lowered, the replenishment bank separating mechanism unit 65 is driven again to repeat the replenishment operation.

When the end detector 25a of the stage 61 disappears and the end detector 25a detects the end, the drive of the supplementary paper-separation mechanism mechanism 65 is stopped, and when the last banknote arrives at the stage of the gold type cassette, the transfer motors 20a to 20c are used. And the driving of the separate integrated mechanism portions 11a to 11c are stopped.

Lastly, the stages 36, 37 and 38 of the gold type cassettes 8a to 8c are lowered and the banknotes accumulated on the stages 36, 37 and 38 are stored in the gold type cassettes 8a to 8c and the replenishment operation ends. do.

Also, when the conveyed banknote is discriminated by the discriminating unit 4 as a non-withdrawal ticket, the banknote is sent from the conveying path 5b to the conveying path 5c, and the conveying path is switched by the blade 21f, thereby supplementing the rejected bill. It is sent to the accumulation mechanism part 67, and is integrated in the supplementary reject banknote storage part 66.

When the full detectors 48c, 49c, and 50c of the gold type cassettes 8a to 8b detect the full during the refilling operation, the bill is sent to the conveying path 5c, and the conveying path by the braid 21c. The switch is sent to the collection banknote collection mechanism 64 to be integrated on the partition plate 62.

When the end detector 25a detects the end, driving of the replenishment separating mechanism unit 65 is stopped, and when the end sensor 25a detects that there are no banknotes on the conveying paths 5a to 5c by the traveling sensor, the conveying motors 20a to 20c Stop the drive.

The control unit 23 conveys the response of the completion of replenishment to the control unit 75, and adds the counted number counted by the traveling monitoring sensor when it is loaded for each gold type as the data.

As described above, the operation in the case where the gold type cassettes 8a to 8c become full during the refilling operation will be described with reference to FIG.

As described above, when the gold type cassette is pulled and the banknotes are accumulated on the partition plate 62, the number of banknotes accumulated on the partition plate 62 is monitored by the discriminating unit 4 or the traveling monitoring sensor. When the accumulation allowance value (for example, 100 sheets) is reached, the operation of the supplementary banknote accumulation mechanism unit 65 is stopped.

Next, the clamp lever 63 performs a rotation operation from the position A to the position B by a motor (not shown) to clamp the banknotes accumulated on the partition plate 62.

Next, the clamp lever 63 is raised from the position B to the position C with a motor (not shown) to lift the banknote.

As a result, the banknote is sent again on the partition plate 62.

Then, the supplementary bill separating mechanism 65 is driven again and the accumulation continues on the partition plate 62 until the accumulation allowance is again.

When the accumulation allowance value is reached, the supplementary money separator portion 65 is stopped, and the clamp lever 63 at position C is set to position D, so that the banknotes first clamped and lifted up are then stacked on the partition plate 62. Drop on

Subsequently, the clamp lever 63 at the position of D is returned to the position of A, and the rotational operation is further performed to the position of the position sensor B of A to clamp the banknote folded on the partition plate 62.

Next, the clamp lever 63 is moved from the position B again to the position C, the banknote is lifted up, and the supplementary bank separating mechanism 65 is driven again.

Then, the above operation is repeated until the end detector 25a detects the end, and when the end detector 25a detects the end, the banknotes stopped by driving the supplementary banknote separating mechanism 65 and accumulated on the partition plate 62. Is clamped to the entire clamp lever 63 by the above operation.

When the entire banknote is clamped with the clamp lever 63 and the clamp lever 63 is raised to the position C, the motor which does not start the stage 61 rotates from the position E to the position F and continues F. It is lowered from the position of to the position of G.

Furthermore, the stage 61 is raised from the position of H to the position (home position) of I so that the banknotes are continuously sent out again.

Next, the loading operation will be briefly described.

When the attendant takes the lead at the start of the work, the batch cassette 14, which is stored in the bill, is stored in the banknote deposit and withdrawal device, and the control unit 750 receives this input and the controller 750 receives this input. Send a command to start the loading operation.

Upon receiving the command to start the loading operation, the control unit 23 of the banknote deposit and withdrawal device switches the internal state in the same manner as the replenishment mode and performs the same operation as the replenishment operation.

19 is a side view of a banknote deposit and withdrawal device showing the flow of banknotes at the time of banknote collection.

When the collection key is operated by the operation key of the internal operation unit 74 by the line member, the control unit 75 receives this input and transmits a command for instructing the collection and withdrawal device to start the collection operation.

When the control unit 23 of the banknote deposit and withdrawal device receives a command to start the recovery operation, the control unit 23 switches the internal state to the recovery mode so that the entire end detectors 48a, 49a, and 50a of the gold type cassettes 8a to 8c are not end-detected. In other words, it is confirmed that banknotes to be collected exist in any of the gold cassettes 8a to 8c.

When all the end detectors 48a, 49a, and 50a of the gold type cassettes 8a to 8c are end-detected, the response is returned with information that cannot be operated, and the process is stopped.

If either of the gold cassettes does not detect the end, the recovery operation starts.

First, the conveying motors 20a and 20b are rotated in the ccw direction, the conveying motor 20c is rotated in the cw direction, and the separation and integration mechanism parts 11a to 11c are driven.

Then, the stage 38 is lifted up, and the bills stored in the gold type cassette 8c are continuously sent out one by one by the separating and collecting mechanism part 11c, and sent to the conveying path 5b.

The banknote sent to the conveyance path 5b is subsequently sent to the conveyance path 4, and it passes through the discrimination part 4, and is conveyed to the conveyance path 5c from the conveyance path 5a.

Here, when the banknote passes through the discriminating unit 4, the authenticity discrimination and the running state discrimination are performed in the discriminating unit 4, and as a result of the discrimination in the discriminating unit 4, the banknote is repeated or meandered. If it is discriminated that it is causing the banknote, this banknote is stored in the reject cassette 15 in the conveying path 5c.

As a result of the differentiation, the banknote which is normal is transferred from the conveying path 5c by the blade 21c and sent to the collection and collection mechanism part 64 to be integrated on the partition plate 62.

When the end detector 50a of the gold-type cassette 8c detects the end, the stage 37 is raised, and then the bills stored in the gold-type cassette 8b are continuously drawn out one by one by the separating and collecting mechanism part 11b. Send it to the return path 5b.

The banknotes sent to the conveyance path 5b are subsequently sent to the conveyance path 4, and are passed through the discriminating part 4, and the conveyance path 5c is conveyed from the conveyance path 5a.

In this case, when the banknote passes through the discriminating unit 4, the authenticity discrimination and the driving state discrimination are performed to the discriminating unit 4, and as a result of the discrimination at the discriminating unit 4, it is discriminated that the banknote is causing repetition or meandering. Is stored in the reject cassette 15 in the conveying path 5c.

As a result of the differentiation, the banknote which is normal is transferred from the conveying path 5c by the blade 21e and sent to the collection and collection mechanism part 64 to be accumulated on the partition board 62.

When the end detector 49a of the gold type cassette 8b detects the end, the stage 36 is raised, and then the banknotes stored in the gold type cassette 8a are taken out one by one by the separating and collecting mechanism part 11a. Send it to the return path 5b.

The banknote sent to the conveyance path 5b is subsequently sent to the conveyance path 4, and it passes through the discrimination part 4, and is conveyed from the conveyance path 5a to the conveyance path 5c.

Here, when the banknote passes through the discriminating unit 4, the authenticity discrimination and the driving state discrimination are performed in the discriminating unit 4, and as a result of the discrimination in the discriminating unit 4, it is discriminated that the banknote is causing a repetition or meandering. This banknote is stored in the reject cassette 15 in the conveyance path 5c.

As a result of the differentiation, the banknote which is normal is transferred from the conveying path 5c by the blade 21e and sent to the collection and collection mechanism mechanism 64 to be integrated on the partition plate 62.

Also, if the accumulation number reaches the allowable value (for example, 100 sheets) on the partition plate 62 before the end detector detects the end during the above-described recovery operation, the stage is lowered to stop the continuous integration by the separation and integration mechanism unit. By the operation described by the operation, the banknotes on the partition plate 62 are transferred to the clamp lever 63, and the recovery on the partition plate 62 is continued.

Thus, the bank notes in the gold cassettes 8a to 8c are accumulated while counting on the partition plate 62 in the order of 10,000 yen rolls, one 10,000 yen rolls, and 1,000 yen rolls.

In addition, the above-mentioned recovery operation is interrupted and the information is returned to the control unit 75.

Receiving this, the control unit 75 displays "cold cassette pull" on the display unit (not shown) of the internal control unit 74, and instructs the number of the banknotes stored in the batch cassette to the attendant.

Here, at the time of bill collection, the storage allowance of the batch cassette 14 varies depending on the amount of accumulated paper money on the stage 61.

From there, the height of the stage 61 is detected by the detection means not shown before the banknote collection process, thereby obtaining the amount of the banknote on the stage 61, and subtracting it from the stored amount of the batch cassette 14 to recover the collection banknote. Obtain the storage capacity of.

Upon recognizing that the batch cassette 14 is full, the attendant opens the door 16, removes the batch cassette 14, opens the door of the batch cassette 14 using the audit key, and then supplements the resin waste storage unit 60. Take out the whole bill.

The closing operation of the batch cassette 14 is closed, the empty batch cassette 14 is set in the banknote deposit and withdrawal device, and the door 16 is closed.

As described above, the collection operation is carried out until the entirety of the gold type cassettes 8a to 8c is end-detected, and when the last bill is sent to the batch cassette 14, the transfer motors 20a to 20c and the separate integrated mechanisms 11a to 11c), the replenishment bank separating mechanism unit 65 and the collecting banknote collecting mechanism unit 64 are stopped, and the collecting operation is completed.

The control part 23 of the banknote deposit and withdrawal apparatus which completed the above process conveys the response of a completion | finish of collection, and adds the counted number collect | recovered by each gold type as the data.

In response to this, the control unit 75 counts and memorizes the stored number of sheets.

This is the end of the recovery operation.

Next, the actual operation of the automatic transaction apparatus equipped with the above-mentioned banknote deposit and withdrawal device will be briefly described.

Prior to the start of work, the bills set by the water bottles are collectively loaded in the supplemental collection and receivable storage unit 60 of the batch cassette 14 and loaded into the cassettes 8a to 8c for each gold type.

After entering the business, the deposit transaction, withdrawal transaction, etc. are performed from time to time. When the gold type cassettes 8a to 8c detect the near end or the end, the batch cassette 14 is set in the bank deposit and withdrawal device to continue the withdrawal transaction. Make it possible.

Here, in the case of deposit transaction and withdrawal transaction, banknotes are not sent to the batch cassette 14, and thus, even if the batch cassette 14 is taken out of the bill acceptor, the deposit and withdrawal transactions are possible and the operation is stopped. There is nothing to do.

In addition, when the reject cassette 15 is pulled, the corresponding reject 15 is to be taken out of the rear of the device without taking out the deposit and withdrawal device from the automatic transaction device, so that it can be easily exchanged between the deposit and withdrawal transactions. In this way, if the reject cassette 15 is replaced in the gap of the transaction, there is no need to stop the operation of the apparatus.

[Effects of the Invention]

As described above, the present invention joins the conveying path in the collective storage section between the port and the discrimination section of the conveyance path connecting the banknote storing section through the discriminating section at the catering port, and the bill storing section or bill in the catering port or collective storing section. Since the billing unit is capable of conveying the bills in the forward and backward directions in the catering port or the bulk storage section, the discriminating section enables the discrimination regardless of the conveying direction of the bills passing through it. In each transaction operation of deposit, withdrawal, replenishment, and withdrawal, the share of the conveying path is increased, thereby reducing the conveying path, and the reduction of the conveying path allows the device to be made smaller and lower in cost.

If there is a bill discriminated by an abnormal running banknote or an abnormal banknote at the time of the deposit transaction, the banknote is returned to the portlet at that point, thereby eliminating accumulated jams and inseparability due to it and abnormal separation.
