BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention [0001] The present invention relates to a banknote automatic deposit and withdrawal device which is mounted on a cash automatic transaction apparatus that conducts a transaction by a customer or the like, and deposits and withdraws a bill.

The automatic teller machine for trading with a customer or the like is equipped with a automatic teller machine for depositing and withdrawing money.

This banknote automatic deposit and withdrawal device includes a plurality of cassettes for each kind of currency, and a collective cassette for storing bills to be replenished for a cassette for each currency type and at the same time storing bills recovered from the cassette for each currency type. A reject cassette is provided for receiving a reject bill.

When making a withdrawal transaction using an automatic cash machine, the banknote automatic withdrawal device continuously inserts a banknote from a cassette for each currency type, and as a result of discriminating, the banknote suitable for withdrawal is transferred to the reception desk, and the bank is not suitable for withdrawal. The rejected bill is stored in the reject cassette and is handed to the customer when the customer receives a bill with the amount of money specified by the customer in the customer's port.

In such a banknote automatic deposit and withdrawal device, it is common to provide a detailed investigation function in order to automatically determine the stock in the banknote automatic withdrawal device and to confirm whether the payment and the payment of the banknote until then were correct.

This detailed inspection function sends the bills of the cassettes of each coin type to the batch cassette first, emptys the cassettes of the currency types, and then returns the bills to the cassettes of the currency types, and counts the counting operation for all the currency types of the cassettes. It counts the stock of bills in cassettes of each kind.

Here, the stock of the banknote which initially existed in the banknote automatic withdrawal and withdrawal device is known, and the banknote payment amount and the banknote withdrawal amount from the start of the transaction to the end of the detailed investigation are also known.

For this reason, the stock of the banknote in the banknote automatic teller machine at the time of close | finish investigation can be confirmed by the following (1) formula.

(Stock of banknote in bill automatic teller machine at the end of close inspection) = (stock of banknote which was first in the automatic teller machine) + (bill deposit amount of money from the beginning of the transaction to the end of the close inspection) Bill withdrawal amount)… (One)

At the end of the detailed inspection, the banknotes stored in the banknote automatic teller and withdrawal device are housed in the reject cassette, in addition to the cassettes according to the currency types. Therefore, if the following (2) Formula is satisfied, it can confirm that the deposit and payment of the banknote up to that time were correct.

(Result of formula (1)) = (stock of cassette according to all money types which we counted by scrutinization function) + (stock of banknote in reject cassette)… (2)

Although the reject cassette has a function of storing bills, it does not have a function of continuously inserting the bills stored therein, so the bills stored in the reject cassette cannot be automatically counted by being transferred to the discriminating unit. Therefore, the person in charge needs to confirm the stock of the bill in the reject cassette after the completion of the detailed investigation function.

If there is a withdrawal transaction after executing the scrutiny function, if there is a rejected bill that has been discriminated as not suitable for withdrawal among the banknotes continuously inserted from the cassette for each currency type, it is stored in the reject cassette. Subsequently, extra bills are added to the bills stored in the reject cassette at the time of executing the overhaul function, and when the person in charge checks the stock of the bills in the reject cassette, the result of the overhaul does not match. Therefore, after executing the detailed inspection function, the person in charge must immediately check the stock of the bill in the reject cassette, and the timing of executing the detailed inspection function could be limited. In addition, after this, the withdrawal transaction cannot be executed until the stock check of the banknote in the reject cassette is performed by the responsible person, so that the customer service is reduced.

Therefore, there is a problem to provide a banknote automatic deposit and withdrawal device which enables the transaction to be continued even after execution of the detailed investigation function, regardless of the stock counting processing of the banknote in the reject cassette by the person in charge.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the invention of the first claim of the present application includes at least one bill storage for storing bills for depositing and withdrawing and receiving, bills to be replenished with respect to the bill and the bills collected from the bill.

The banknote which passed through the discrimination part 3 is discriminated there, and the banknote suitable for withdrawal is sent to the front and back inversion mechanism part 2, and the banknote discriminated as the back side passes through the path of a switchback, and arranges the surface and the back side. It is integrated in the waiting port 1. Banknotes not suitable for withdrawal are sent to the third kind of reject banknote accommodating portion 23 of the reject cassette 21.

At the time of replenishment, the banknote on the stage 9 of the batch cassette 8 is continuously fed by the batch cassette separating / accumulating mechanism section 10 and sent to the discriminating section 3. Banknotes passing through the discrimination unit 3 are discriminated therein, and the banknotes suitable for withdrawal are sent to the deposit and withdrawal units 6a to 6c of the cassettes 4a to 4c for each currency type according to the currency type. It passes through each deposit and withdrawal part 6a-6c, and is sent to the 1st type reject banknote accommodating part 20 of the batch cassette 8.

At the time of collection, banknotes are continuously fed from the cassettes 4a to 4c for each currency type by the deposit and withdrawal sections 6a to 6c and sent to the discriminating section 3. Banknotes passing through the discriminating unit 3 are discriminated therein, and countable banknotes are sent to a partition plate not shown in the bottom of the batch cassette 8, and the reject banknotes are the number of reject banknotes of the first type. It is sent to payment 20.

In the normal transaction mode, among the banknotes continuously inserted from the cassettes 4a to 4c according to the currency types in the withdrawal transaction or the like, the banknotes discriminated as reject banknotes not suitable for withdrawal, as described above, the reject cassette 21 Of the third kind of reject banknote accommodating portion 23. At this time, reject banknotes are bills that cannot be specified for each kind of authenticity, banknotes with damage or dirt for normal damage, duplicate transfers, chains, oblique movements, etc. . The banknote which causes this conveyance defect is called a running reject banknote.

Next, the detailed inspection function will be described.

When entering the detailed irradiation mode, first, in the batch cassette 8, it is confirmed that the temporary holding plate 11 and the banknote press 15 are in the retracted position, and the stage 9 is raised to a predetermined position to collectively The cassette separation / accumulation mechanism unit 10 is used to accumulate bank notes on the stage 9. At this time, when the temporary holding plate 11 has not retracted, the temporary holding plate 11 is retracted by the motor 18 to a position where the upper side of the stage 9 is released, and the banknote press 15 is withdrawn. If not, the banknote press 15 is raised and held by the motor 17.

Next, any one of a plurality of cassettes for each currency type raises the stage 5a of the cassette 4a for each currency type, for example, and separates the banknotes on the said stage 5a of the deposit / withdrawal part 6a ( It is made into the state which can continue input by 7a). And the banknote in the cassette 4a according to a coin type is continuously thrown into the conveyance path | route one by one by the integrated accumulation mechanism part 7a.

Banknotes continuously inserted into the conveying path 24 are sent to the discriminating unit 3, and the banknotes that can be discriminated as not having caused a conveyance failure at a lower value than the specified value, i.e., countable banknotes, are collected in a batch cassette. It is integrated on the stage 9 by the mechanism part 10. Banknotes that could not be discriminated are stored in the third type reject banknote accommodating portion 23 of the reject cassette 21. This operation is performed until the cassette 4a by currency type is empty, and when the cassette 4a by currency type is empty, the operation is stopped.

Next, the stage 9 is raised, the banknotes on the stage 9 are compressed by the pickup roller 12 constituting the batch cassette separating and accumulating mechanism unit 10, and the pick-up roller 12 and the feeding roller (continued) By rotating 13), the banknotes on the stage 9 are continuously fed into the conveying path 24 one by one. At this time, as a study for continuously injecting banknotes at predetermined intervals, for example, the pickup roller 12 is provided with a high friction member at a part thereof, and only when the banknote is in contact with the place where the high friction member is present. When banknotes are continuously put in contact with other places, the banknotes are not inserted continuously, and the interval between banknotes continuously added is made. Further, as a study for continuously inserting banknotes one by one, the separating rollers 14 are disposed opposite to the continuous feeding rollers 13, and the separating rollers 14 are rotatable only in the banknote storing direction, so that after the first sheet Banknotes are continuously stopped by this separation roller 14.

Banknotes continuously introduced from the stage 9 by the batch cassette separating and accumulating mechanism unit 10 are sent to the discriminating unit 3, and the distinguished banknotes are sent to the deposit and withdrawal unit 6a and separated and accumulated. It is integrated on the stage 5a by the mechanism part 7a. Banknotes that could not be discriminated are stored in the third type reject banknote accommodating portion 23 of the reject cassette 21. This operation is made until the batch cassette 8 is empty, and when the batch cassette 8 becomes empty, the operation is stopped.

By this operation, in order for all the banknotes in the cassette 4a for each currency type to pass through the discrimination part 3, the stock of the banknote in the cassette 4a for each currency type can be counted. Thereafter, the cassettes 4b and 4c for each currency type are sequentially processed in the same manner, and the stocks of the bills of the cassettes 4a to 4c for all currency types are counted.

Next, the processing after the detailed irradiation mode will be described.

Fig. 3 is a flowchart showing the operation of the first embodiment, showing the processing flow after the close-up irradiation mode. 4-7 is explanatory drawing which showed the flow of a banknote after a close inspection mode, and has shown the flow of a banknote after a close inspection mode in a 1st Example.

When the above-described detailed inspection mode is finished (SA1), the transaction mode after the detailed inspection is performed until the stock of the banknote in the reject type banknote 23 of the reject cassette 21 is confirmed by the person in charge. (SA2).

In the transaction mode after this detailed inspection, the temporary holding plate 11 is set to the integrated position by the motor 18. Moreover, the banknote press 15 maintains the state raised by the motor 17, and makes it the state which can accumulate a banknote on the temporary holding board 11 by the bulk cassette separating-integration mechanism part 10 (SA3).                     

After this detailed investigation, the transaction mode is executed, and the transaction is waited by the customer.

For example, a withdrawal transaction is performed (SA4). In this case, withdrawal from the cassette 4a for each currency type will be described. The banknotes continuously added from the cassette 4a for each currency type are sent to the discrimination unit 3, and as a result of discrimination (SA5), the banknote suitable for withdrawal is shown in FIG. As shown in 4, it is sent to the waiting port 1 (SA6). On the other hand, reject banknotes which are not suitable for withdrawal are accumulated on the temporary holding plate 11 by the batch cassette separating and accumulating mechanism part 10 as shown in Fig. 5 (SA7). When the banknote sent to the customer service 1 reaches the amount requested by the customer, as shown in Fig. 6, the shutter 1a is opened and the banknote is passed to the customer (SA8). When the customer accepts the bill, the shutter 1a is closed and the withdrawal transaction is terminated (SA9).

After the detailed investigation mode, until the stock of the banknote in the reject cassette storage part 23 of the reject cassette 21 is confirmed by the person in charge, the transaction is performed in the transaction mode after the detailed inspection described above. When a reject banknote is generated, it accumulates on the temporary holding board 11, and it prevents a banknote from being sent to the 3rd type reject banknote accommodating part 23 of the reject cassette 21. As shown in FIG.

When the stock of the banknote in the reject bank accommodating part 23 of the reject cassette 21 is confirmed by the person in charge, the transaction mode after the detailed examination is canceled (SA10). When the transaction mode is canceled after the detailed examination, the stage 9 is raised to push up the temporary holding plate 11 by the stage 9, and the banknotes on the temporary holding plate 11 are collectively separated into a cassette. 10) is pressed by a pickup roller 12 constituting. Then, by rotating the pick-up roller 12 and the continuous feeding roller 13, as shown in Fig. 7, the bills on the temporary holding plate 11 are continuously fed into the conveying path 24 one by one, and the reject cassette ( It is sent to the 3rd type reject banknote accommodating part 23 of 21, and is accommodated (SA11).

When all the banknotes on the temporary holding plate 11 continue to be put, the stage 9 is lowered and the temporary holding plate 11 is evacuated by the motor 18.

Subsequently, the normal transaction mode is executed (SA12), and the reject banknote is stored in the third kind of reject banknote accommodating portion 23 of the reject cassette 21. In the next close inspection, the bill is held in the third kind of reject banknote accommodating portion 23 including the rejected bill once stored on the temporary holding plate 11 in the transaction mode after the previous close inspection. Have the circle confirm.

Here, when the batch cassette 8 allows only the part which accommodates banknotes below the batch cassette separating-integrating mechanism part 10 and the temporary holding plate 11 to be detachable with respect to a banknote automatic teller machine, the transaction after a detailed examination is carried out. Even if the batch cassette 8 is removed during the mode, the rejected bills remain in the bill automatic teller machine and are not taken.

At this time, in the above-described first embodiment, an example in which a withdrawal transaction is performed in the transaction mode after detailed inspection has been described, but it is also possible to perform a deposit transaction.

In other words, when a deposit transaction occurs after the transaction mode is executed after the detailed investigation, the banknote that the customer continues to insert the banknote set in the customer service port 1 is transferred to the discriminating unit 3, and the banknote discriminated as suitable for the deposit. Is accumulated on a temporary holding plate (not shown) of the cassettes 4a to 4c according to the currency types. At this time, the 1,000 yen banknote suitable for depositing and withdrawing money is accumulated on the temporary holding board of the cassette 4a for each currency type, and the 10,000 yen banknote suitable for depositing, is accumulated on the temporary holding board of the cassette 4b for each currency type. Reject banknotes suitable for depositing, but not withdrawing, are accumulated on a temporary holding board of the cassette 4c for each currency type.

In addition, the banknote discriminated as not suitable for deposit is sent to the customer service 1, and it accumulates in the state distinguished from the banknote set by the customer.

If all the banknotes set by the customer in the customer service port 1 are classified according to the discrimination result, the customer is confirmed the amount of money, and when the customer cancels the transaction at this stage, the date and time of the cassettes 4a to 4c for each currency type All bills on the holding board are transferred to the customer service 1 and returned to the customer. When the customer confirms and proceeds with the transaction, the temporary holding boards of the cassettes 4a and 4b for each currency type are opened, and 1,000 yen bills suitable for depositing and withdrawing money are stored in the cassettes for each currency type and suitable for the deposit. The 10,000 yen bill suitable for withdrawal is stored in a cassette 4b for each kind of money.

On the other hand, bills on the temporary holding board of the cassette 4c according to the currency types, that is, bills suitable for depositing but not withdrawing, are separated into these and are continuously added to the conveying path 24, and the date and time of the batch cassette 8 is maintained. It is integrated in the holding plate 11.

In this way, even in the deposit transaction, if a reject banknote suitable for depositing but not suitable for withdrawal occurs during the transaction mode after the detailed investigation, it is accumulated on the temporary holding plate 11 after confirmation of the deposit amount by the customer. As it progresses, banknotes are not sent to the third-class reject banknote accommodating portion 23 of the reject cassette 21.

As described above, in the first embodiment of the present invention, even after the detailed investigation mode is executed, there is a transaction such as withdrawal before checking the stock of the banknote in the reject cassette 21 by the responsible person, so that the reject banknote occurs. When the device checks the stock of the bills in the reject cassette 21, the bill is not stored in the reject cassette by performing the transaction mode after the detailed inspection, There is no case that the result of scrutiny does not match. Therefore, a transaction by a customer can be accepted without the need to confirm the stock of the banknote in the reject cassette 21 immediately after the detailed inspection mode.

In addition, since the person in charge checks the stock only with the reject cassette 21, there is no confusion in handling.

Next, a second embodiment of the present invention will be described. At this time, in the second embodiment, since the configuration of the automatic banknote automatic withdrawal device is the same as that described in Figs. 1 and 2, the same reference numerals are used in the operation of the second embodiment. In addition, the process until the close irradiation mode ends is the same as that of the first embodiment.

8 is a flowchart showing the operation of the second embodiment, showing the flow of processing after the detailed irradiation mode. 9 is the explanatory drawing which showed the flow of banknotes after the detailed examination mode, and shows the flow of banknotes after the precise examination mode in 2nd Example.

When the detailed investigation mode is finished (SB1), the transaction mode after the detailed inspection is performed until the stock of the banknote in the reject type banknote 23 of the reject cassette 21 is confirmed by the responsible person. (SB2).                     

In the transaction mode after this detailed inspection, the temporary holding plate 11 is set to the integrated position by the motor 18. Moreover, the banknote press 15 maintains the state raised by the motor 17, and makes it the state which can accumulate a banknote on the temporary holding board 11 by the batch cassette separating-integrating mechanism part 10 (SB3).

After this detailed investigation, the transaction mode is executed, and the transaction is waited by the customer.

For example, withdrawal transaction (SB4). In this case, the withdrawal from the cassette 4a for each currency type will be described. The banknotes continuously inserted from the cassette 4a for each currency type are sent to the discrimination unit 3, and as a result of discrimination (SB5), the banknote suitable for withdrawal is shown in FIG. As shown in 4, it is sent to the waiting port 1 (SB6). On the other hand, reject banknotes which are not suitable for withdrawal are accumulated on the temporary holding plate 11 by the batch cassette separating and accumulating mechanism unit 10 as shown in Fig. 5 (SB7). When the banknote sent to the customer service 1 reaches the amount requested by the customer, as shown in Fig. 6, the shutter 1a is opened and the banknote is passed to the customer (SB8). When the customer accepts the banknote, the shutter 1a is closed to end the withdrawal transaction (SB9).

When one transaction is finished, the stage 9 is raised to push up the temporary holding plate 11 by the stage 9, and the batch cassette separating and accumulating mechanism part 10 constitutes a batch cassette on the temporary holding plate 11. Is pressed by a pickup roller 12. Then, by rotating the pickup roller 12 and the continuous loading roller 13, as shown in FIG. 9, the original bills on the temporary holding plate 11 are continuously fed into the conveying path 24 one by one, and then the original feed is continued. The cassette is returned to the cassette 4a for each currency type (SB10). Since the bills stored in the cassette for each kind of money are discriminated by the discriminating part 3 at the time of replenishment or a deposit transaction, there are generally no fake bills or damaged bills. Therefore, even if the banknote discriminated from the rejected banknote at the time of withdrawal transaction is returned to the cassette according to the currency type, the banknote may be discriminated as a normal banknote. Therefore, in the second embodiment, in the transaction mode after the detailed investigation, the rejected bill is stored on the temporary holding plate 11 which can be continuously inserted into the cassette for each currency type, and therefore, it is used as the original currency type cassette for continuously inserting it. It was to return. At this time, when returning the banknote on the temporary holding board 11 to the cassette for each kind of money at the end of one transaction, it does not discriminate and returns to an original continuous input. This is a process for shortening the processing time, but there is no problem because it discriminates at the next withdrawal.

After the detailed investigation mode, until the stock of the banknote in the reject cassette storage part 23 of the reject cassette 21 is confirmed by the person in charge, the transaction is performed in the transaction mode after the detailed inspection described above. When a banknote is generated, it is accumulated once on the temporary holding board 11, and at the end of one transaction, the banknote on the temporary holding board 11 is continuously added and returned to the original cash type cassette. Banknotes are not sent to the third kind of reject banknote accommodating portion 23 of the cassette 21.

And when the stock of the banknote in the 3rd type reject banknote accommodating part 23 of the reject cassette 21 is confirmed by the person in charge, the transaction mode after a detailed examination is canceled (SB11).

After canceling the transaction mode after this detailed inspection, the temporary holding plate 11 is evacuated by the motor 18.                     

Thereafter, the normal transaction mode is executed (SB12), and the reject banknote is stored in the third kind of reject banknote accommodating unit 23 of the reject cassette 21. In the next close inspection, the bill is held in the third kind of reject banknote accommodating portion 23 including the rejected bill once stored on the temporary holding plate 11 in the transaction mode after the previous close inspection. The circle will confirm.

As described above, in the second embodiment of the present invention, similarly to the first embodiment, there is a transaction such as withdrawal after checking the stock of the banknote in the reject cassette 21 by the officer after execution of the inspection mode. Even if a rejected bill occurs, the device enters the transaction mode after a close inspection, so that the bill is not stored in the reject cassette, so that when a representative checks the stock of the bill in the reject cassette 21, There is no case where a banknote is put in, and the result of a close examination does not match. In the transaction mode after the detailed examination in the second embodiment, the rejected bills stored on the temporary holding plate 11 are continuously added to each of the transactions at the end of the transaction, and then returned to the cassette according to the original currency type. When the withdrawal transaction is discriminated again and it is normal, it can be paid so that waste of paper money can be eliminated.

Next, a third embodiment of the present invention will be described.

Fig. 10 is a main configuration diagram of a banknote automatic teller machine according to a third embodiment of the present invention. Fig. 10A is a plan view of a batch cassette separating and collecting mechanism part, and Fig. 10B is a side view of a batch cassette separating and collecting mechanism part. In this third embodiment, the overall configuration of the automatic banknote deposit and withdrawal device is substantially the same as that described in FIG. 1, but the temporary holdup plate is composed of the banknote press and the stage without providing the temporary suspension plate in the batch cassette. .

In FIG. 10, 25 is a banknote press. Similar to the configuration described in FIG. 2, the banknote press 25 is retracted upward when the motor 17 rotates the lift up lever 16 when the banknote is separated and accumulated.

And when the banknote press 25 is evacuated upward, the notch 26 is provided in order to avoid the pick-up roller 12 and the continuous feeding roller 13.

27 is a stage provided in the batch cassette 8, and accumulates the bank notes to be supplemented to the cassettes 4a to 4c according to the currency types and the banknotes collected from the cassettes 4a to 4c according to the currency types. This stage can be lifted by receiving a driving force of a motor (not shown).

28 is a convex part provided on the upper surface of this stage 27, and this convex part 28 has a shape corresponding to the notch 26 of the said banknote press 25. As shown in FIG. FIG. 11 is a cross-sectional view taken along line AA of FIG. 10. When the stage 27 is raised in a state in which the bank 17 is lowered by the motor 17, the convex portion 28 of the stage 27 causes the banknote press 25 to be raised. ) Is fitted into the notch 26. At this time, the shape of the convex part 28 is decided so that the upper surface of the banknote press 25 may be a plane without an unevenness | corrugation as shown in FIG. Thereby, it becomes possible to accumulate a banknote by making the upper surface of the banknote press 25 into a temporary holding plate.

At this time, since the banknote press 25 also has a role which crimps the banknote on the stage 27, the banknote press 25 forms both an upper surface and a lower surface in planar shape. For this reason, it forms in the thin plate of thickness which can maintain one's own strength. Here, since the strength required for the banknote press 25 is supported by the stage 27 from the lower side when used as a temporary holding plate, the strength that can accumulate banknotes alone is not required. When the banknote on the 27) can be compressed, the strength may not be deformed.

The stud 29 is provided in the banknote press 25, and this stud 29 is slidably fitted to the long hole-shaped guide which extends in the up-down direction which is not shown in figure, and an up-down operation is attained. And the banknote press 25 loads the stud 29 in the liftup lever 16 so that the bank 17 may receive the driving force of the motor 17 through the liftup lever 16, and to operate it up and down, and the banknote press 25 The lift-up lever 16 is used to raise the lifter, and when the banknote press 25 is lowered, the weight is dropped by its own weight and a spring force not shown. Therefore, when the banknote press 25 is in the lowered position, the banknote press 25 can be pushed up to the stage 27 to adjust the position irrespective of the driving force of the motor 17.

12 is a flowchart showing the operation of the third embodiment, showing the flow of processing after the detailed irradiation mode. At this time, the processing until the detailed irradiation mode is finished is the same as in the first embodiment.

When the detailed investigation mode is finished (SC1), the transaction mode after the detailed inspection is shifted until the stock of the banknote in the third type reject banknote storage unit 23 of the reject cassette 21 is confirmed by the person in charge. (SC2).

In this post-inspection trading mode, the bank 17 is lowered by the motor 17, the stage 27 is raised by a motor (not shown), and the convex portion 28 of the stage 27 is raised. Is inserted into the notch 26 of the banknote press 25, and the banknote press 25 is pushed up by the predetermined amount by the stage 27 to make the banknote press 25 an accumulation position capable of accumulating banknotes on the upper surface thereof. (SC3).

After this detailed investigation, the transaction mode is executed, and the transaction is waited by the customer.

For example, it is assumed that a withdrawal transaction has been made (SC4). In this case, withdrawal from the cassette 4a for each currency type will be described. The banknotes continuously added from the cassette 4a for each currency type are sent to the discrimination unit 3, and as a result of discrimination (SC5), the banknote suitable for withdrawal is served. It is sent to phrase 1 (SC6). On the other hand, reject banknotes which are not suitable for withdrawal are accumulated on the banknote press 25 by the batch cassette separating / accumulating mechanism section 10 (SC7). Here, when the banknote press 25 is in an integrated position in order to use the upper surface of the banknote press 25 as a temporary holding plate, the convex portion 28 of the stage 27 is placed on the notch 26 of the banknote press 25. ) Is inserted so that the upper surface of the banknote press 25 becomes flat, so that the banknote is discharged onto the banknote press 25 by the continuous insertion roller 13 of the batch cassette separating / integrating mechanism part 10. The discharged banknotes are caught by the notches 26 of the banknote press 25 so as not to cause the accumulation failure.

When the banknote sent to the customer service 1 reaches the amount requested by the customer, the shutter 1a is opened, and the banknote is handed to the customer (SC8). When the customer accepts the bill, the shutter 1a is closed and the withdrawal transaction is finished (SC9).

When one transaction is finished, the stage 27 is raised and the bank press 25 is pushed up by the stage 27 to pick up the bank notes on the bank press 25 constituting the collective cassette separating and accumulating unit 10. Compress with the roller (12). Then, by rotating the pickup roller 12 and the continuous insertion roller 13, the banknotes on the banknote press 25 are continuously introduced into the conveying path 24 one by one, and the cassettes according to the original currency types 4a continue to be inserted. Return (SC10). Since the notch 26 of the banknote press 25 is installed so as to avoid the pickup roller 12, the banknote press 25 does not exist under the pickup roller 12, and the pickup roller is used only by the banknote press 25. A bill cannot be crimped at (12). Therefore, the convex part 28 of the stage 27 is fitted in this notch 26, and as shown in FIG. 11, the convex part 28 picks up the banknote on the banknote press 25 to the pickup roller 12. As shown in FIG. It becomes possible to crimp | compress and it becomes possible to continue putting the banknote on the banknote press 25 by the said pickup roller 12. As shown in FIG.

At this time, the bills stored in the cassette for each kind of money are discriminated by the discriminating unit 3 at the time of replenishment or deposit transaction, and generally, there are no fake bills or damaged bills. Therefore, even if the banknote discriminated from the rejected banknote at the time of the withdrawal transaction is returned to the cassette according to the currency type, it may be discriminated as a normal banknote. In the third embodiment, therefore, in the transaction mode after the detailed examination, the rejected bills are stored on the banknote press 25 that can be continuously inserted into the cassette for each currency type, so that the banknote is continuously inserted into the cassette for the original currency type. Turn. At this time, when returning a banknote on the banknote press 25 to a cassette according to a currency type at the end of one transaction, the banknote is continuously inputted and returned without discriminating. This is a process for shortening the processing time, but there is no problem because it discriminates at the next withdrawal.

After the detailed investigation mode, until the stock of the banknotes in the reject type cassette 23 of the reject cassette 21 is confirmed by the person in charge, the transaction is performed in the transaction mode after the detailed inspection described above. When a rejected bill is generated, it is accumulated once on the bill press 25, and the bill cassette on the bill press 25 is continuously added at the end of one transaction and returned to the cassette according to the original currency type, thereby eliminating the reject cassette 21 Banknotes are not sent to the third kind of reject banknote accommodating portion 23 of).

And when the stock of the banknote in the 3rd type reject banknote accommodating part 23 of the reject cassette 21 is confirmed by the person in charge, the transaction mode after a detailed investigation is canceled (SC11).

After canceling the transaction mode after the detailed inspection, the stage 27 is lowered to a predetermined position, the bank press 25 is raised by the motor 17, and the state is maintained.

Subsequently, by executing the normal transaction mode (SC12), the reject banknote is stored in the third kind of reject banknote accommodating portion 23 of the reject cassette 21. Then, in the next detailed inspection, the staff in charge of the stock of the banknote in the third kind of reject banknote accommodating part 23 including the rejected banknote once stored on the banknote press 25 in the transaction mode after the previous detailed examination is in charge. This will confirm.

As described above, in the third embodiment of the present invention, similarly to the first embodiment, there is a transaction such as withdrawal after checking the stock of the banknote in the reject cassette 21 by the officer in charge after executing the inspection mode. Even if a rejected bill occurs, the device executes the transaction mode after the scrutiny, so that the bill is not stored in the reject cassette, so when the person in charge checks the stock of the bill in the reject cassette 21, Bill does not enter, and the result of close examination does not match. In the third embodiment, in the transaction mode after the detailed examination, the bill press 25 of the batch cassette 8 can be used as a temporary holding plate as a place to store the reject bills. It is not necessary to provide a separate temporary holding plate, a mechanism for driving the same, and the like in 8), so that a cheap device can be obtained. At this time, in the third embodiment, in the transaction mode after the detailed investigation, the rejected banknote on the banknote press 25 is continuously put in and returned to the original, as in the second embodiment, but in the first embodiment As described above, when releasing the transaction mode after the detailed inspection, the rejected bills on the bill press 25 may be collectively stored in the third type reject bill acceptor 23.

Next, a fourth embodiment of the present invention will be described. At this time, in the fourth embodiment, since the configuration of the automatic banknote automatic withdrawal device is the same as that described in Figs. 1 and 2, the same reference numerals are used in the operation of the fourth embodiment.

Fig. 13 is a flowchart showing the operation of the fourth embodiment, and Figs. 14 and 15 are explanatory diagrams showing the flow of bank notes in the fourth embodiment.

In this fourth embodiment, the temporary holding plate 11 provided in the batch cassette 8 is used to improve the use efficiency of the banknote in the normal trading mode.

While in the normal transaction mode (SD1), if a withdrawal transaction is selected by the customer (SD2), the temporary hold plate 11 is set to the integrated position by the motor 18. Moreover, the banknote press 15 maintains the state raised by the motor 17, and makes it the state which can accumulate a banknote on the temporary holding board 11 by the batch cassette separating-integrating mechanism part 10 (SD3).

First, withdrawal from the cassette 4a for each currency type will be described. The banknotes continuously added from the cassette 4a for each currency type are sent to the discrimination unit 3 to discriminate the result (SD4), and the banknote suitable for withdrawal is shown in FIG. As shown in 4, it is sent to the customer service 1 (SD5). On the other hand, in the reject banknote which is not suitable for withdrawal, the banknote discriminated as the running reject is accumulated on the temporary holding plate 11 by the batch cassette separating / accumulating mechanism unit 10 as shown in FIG. 5 (SD6). ). In the reject banknote, the banknote discriminated as the authenticity / normal damage reject is stored in the third-class reject banknote accommodating portion 23 of the reject cassette 21 as shown in FIG. 14 (SD7).

The reason for dividing the running reject banknote with the authenticity and normal damage reject banknote is that the running reject banknote may become a normal banknote if it is continuously inserted again without defects such as tearing itself. The running reject banknote is accumulated on the temporary holding plate 11 which can continuously insert the banknote.

When the banknote sent to the customer service 1 reaches the amount requested by the customer, as shown in Fig. 6, the shutter 1a is opened and the banknote is passed to the customer (SD8). When the customer accepts the banknote, the shutter 1a is closed to end the withdrawal transaction (SD9).

When one transaction is finished, the stage 9 is raised to push up the temporary holding plate 11 by the stage 9 to form a bulk cassette separating and accumulating mechanism unit 10 for the bills on the temporary holding plate 11. Is pressed by a pickup roller 12. Then, by rotating the pickup roller 12 and the continuous feeding roller 13, as shown in FIG. 15, the bills on the temporary holding plate 11 are continuously fed into the conveying path 24 one by one, and the discriminating unit 3 is separated. (SD10). As a result of the discrimination (SD11), the cassette is returned to one of the cassettes 4a to 4c for each currency type according to the currency type (SD12). By this discrimination, the banknote which has been discriminated again as the running reject may have a factor causing the traveling reject, so that the banknote itself may have a factor causing the traveling reject. It is stored (SD7).

As described above, in the fourth embodiment of the present invention, the running reject banknote is accumulated on the temporary holding plate 11 of the batch cassette 8 once, and after the transaction is finished, the banknote on the temporary holding plate 11 is collected. Banknotes that are not originally stored are rejected cassettes because the banknotes that have been continuously separated again are discriminated by the discriminating unit 3, and the bills that do not cause a running reject are returned to the cassettes according to the currency types according to the currency types. It can prevent that it is accommodated in (21), can improve the utilization efficiency of a banknote, and can also make small the capacity of the reject cassette 21.

The present invention is applicable to a banknote automatic deposit and withdrawal device mounted in a cash automatic transaction device installed in a financial institution such as a bank, and at the same time, pays cash out at a convenience store, etc. It is also applicable to banknote automatic deposit and withdrawal devices mounted on an automatic trading device.                     

At this time, the present invention is configured to empty the rejected bills on the stage of the batch cassette, and to collect the rejected bills on the stage once, and to separate the bills again after the transaction is completed and to return them to cassettes for each kind of currency. Although the invention can be solved, the present invention has the configuration shown in the above-described first to fourth embodiments, and when jams or the like occur in the batch cassette after the automatic precise inspection, the jam bill is placed in the batch cassette. Since the bulk cassette is not detached from the device, there is an effect that the bills to be kept in the device can be avoided.

As described above, the banknote automatic deposit and withdrawal device of the present invention is provided with a temporary holding plate to be opened and closed in the collective storage, and in the normal trading mode, banknotes discriminated as not suitable for withdrawal are stored in the reject storage, In the transaction mode after the detailed investigation after the detailed investigation mode to confirm the inventory in the banknote storage, close the temporary holding board, and stores the banknote discriminated as not suitable for withdrawal on the temporary holding board, so the detailed investigation mode Note that there is no case where the rejected bills generated by the transaction performed after executing the detailed inspection mode are mixed with the bills stored in the reject storage box. Therefore, after executing the detailed investigation mode, the person in charge does not need to directly count the stock of the banknotes in the reject storage box, thereby allowing the user to freely select the timing of executing the detailed investigation mode, and after executing the detailed investigation mode, Since the transaction can be continued regardless of the inventory counting of the banknotes in the reject storage by the person in charge, the customer service can be improved without having to wait for the customer.
