Description

Method for controlling notes supplying mode in an automated teller machine

The present invention relates to a control method of the banknote replenishment mode of the automatic teller machine. More specifically, the automated teller machine can prevent an operation failure that occurs when the banknote replenishment box is replenished during the replenishment collection box or when the banknote storage box for storing the bill of a certain kind is completely filled before replenishment. The control method of the banknote refill mode of the present invention.

In general, an automated teller machine (ATM) includes an input unit for inputting information, a financial service menu, and a screen unit on which a transaction status is displayed. Is provided, the customer is to carry out cash withdrawal through the banknote withdrawal device.

1 is a view showing a schematic configuration of a banknote withdrawal device of a general automatic teller machine.

Banknote deposit and withdrawal device 1 is a control unit (not shown) for controlling the entire device, including the deposit and withdrawal of the banknote, the deposit and withdrawal unit 10 for the customer to put or receive the bill for withdrawal and withdrawal, withdrawal and withdrawal through the withdrawal unit 10 The conveying path 20 is provided on the conveying path 20, the conveying path 20, discrimination unit 30 for discriminating whether there is an abnormality of the banknotes, the number of the banknotes deposited and when the withdrawal request is withdrawn Banknote storage boxes 40 (41, 42, 43, 44) are provided.

In addition, the banknote entry and withdrawal device (1) is a temporary storage unit 50 for temporary storage of the bills, the bill storage box 40, the supplementary collection box 60 for replenishing the bills or recovering the bills from the bill storage box, or more It further includes a reject box 70 is stored bills and the like.

In a deposit transaction, when a customer puts a banknote into the deposit space a, the separating part 11 separates a banknote one by one and transfers it to the conveyance path 20. As shown in FIG. The banknotes carried out on the conveyance path 20 go through the discriminating unit 30 to determine whether or not the banknotes are abnormal. After passing through the discrimination unit 30, the banknotes (hereinafter referred to as normal banknotes) determined as normal tickets at the discriminating unit are stored in the temporary storage unit 50, and the banknotes (hereinafter referred to as reject banknotes) determined as abnormal tickets are withdrawn spaces. After stacking and sorting in (b), the customer can deposit again.

Banknotes determined as normal banknotes in the discriminating unit 30 are in the temporary storage unit 50, and are stored in the banknote storage box 40 through the conveyance path 20 at the request of the user's deposit.

In the withdrawal transaction, when a customer requests withdrawal, the banknotes stored in the banknote storage box 40 are sent to the conveying path 20 to pass through the discriminating unit 30. The normal banknotes are stacked and aligned by the stack section 15 into the withdrawal space b, and then withdrawn by the user. At this time, the banknotes determined as reject banknotes in the discriminating unit 30 are stored in the temporary storage unit 50 and then sent to the reject box 70.

A plurality of banknote storage boxes 41, 42, 43, 44 are installed in the automatic teller machine, and an upper portion of the banknote storage box is provided with a separating part (not shown) including a pickup roller, a feed roller, and a guide roller. The plurality of bill storage boxes (41, 42, 43, 44) is loaded with different kinds of bills or bills of the same kind, bills of the corresponding kind requested by the customer by the signal of the control unit into the bill storage box (40 The banknotes withdrawn from the customer or put through the deposit and withdrawal unit 10 are deposited and loaded into the banknote storage box 40.

Since the ratio of banknotes to be withdrawn and withdrawn through the automated teller machine on average is about 7: 3, the withdrawal is repeated when the above-described withdrawal and withdrawal process is insufficient.

In this case, the supplementary recovery box 60 is additionally installed in case the banknote storage box 40 is insufficient, the supplementary recovery box is not used for the withdrawal and withdrawal of the banknotes, the banknotes required for the banknote storage box 40 It is only used for replenishment or for recovering banknotes stored in banknote storage boxes.

FIG. 2 is a view showing a path for replenishing banknotes from the supplementary collection box 60 to each banknote storage box 41, 42, 43, 44 in the conventional automatic teller machine.

When the cashier fills the money in the supplementary collection box 60 and operates the supplementary mode, the banknotes stored in the supplementary collection box pass through the discrimination unit 30 to store each kind of paper money storage boxes 41, 42, 43, 44) are stored separately by volume type. At this time, the banknote determined as abnormal banknotes in the discriminating unit 30 is stored in the reject box (70).

3 is a view showing a path for recovering the banknotes stored in each banknote storage box (41, 42, 43, 44) to the replenishment recovery box 60 in the conventional automated teller machine.

When the accountant operates the recovery mode, the banknotes stored in each banknote storage box 41, 42, 43, 44 are passed through the discriminating unit 30 and stored in the supplementary collection box 60. At this time, the banknote determined as abnormal banknotes in the discriminating unit is stored in the reject box (70).

Currently, only 10,000 won bills are used in automated teller machines, but when large amounts (50,000 won, 100,000 won bills) are issued and distributed, 10,000 won, 50,000 won, and 100,000 won bills will be deposited and withdrawn through the automated teller machines. . Therefore, the bill storage box 40, for example, the most used 10,000 won bill storage box (41, 42) two, 50,000 won bill storage box 43 one, 100,000 won bill storage box (44) 1 There will be several bill storage boxes like dogs. In this case, the supplementary collection box 60 is stored with a mixture of 10,000 won, 50,000 won and 100,000 won bills, and when replenishing or retrieving the bills bills for each kind of bill through each bill storage box (41, 42, 43, 44) Or to recover the bill from the bill storage box.

In general, the amount of deposits and withdrawals is expected to be significantly less than the 10,000 won bills, so the amount of large bills stored in the banknote storage box 40 for withdrawal from the automatic teller machine is relatively lower than the 10,000 won bills. A small amount will be stored (for example, 2000 sheets of 10,000 won and 200 sheets of high-end notes).

However, some customers may want to withdraw a large amount of large amounts of money, in order to prepare for this, if the large amount of money stored in the bill storage boxes 43, 44 storing the large amount of money is insufficient, the large amount of money from the supplemental collection box 60 It is necessary to supplement only the large bills (for example, 50,000 won bills or 100,000 won bills) to the banknote storage boxes 43 and 44.

In the automatic teller machine, for example, if you want to replenish the lack of 50,000 won bills, banknotes separated from the supplemental collection box 60, which contains several books, pass through the discrimination unit 30, and then save the bills by books. While stored in the box 40, bills are also replenished in the 50,000 won bill storage box 43.

However, in the conventional automated teller machine, when the banknotes are separated (for example, two) 10,000 won banknote storage boxes 41 and 42 while the banknotes are separated, the banknotes can no longer be accommodated. There is no choice but to stop replenishing banknotes and resume service. However, if the customer requests to withdraw a large amount of 50,000 won bills in the state of insufficient replenishment of 50,000 won bills, the automated teller machine will not be able to respond to this, and the device will be suspended. There was a problem that the operation rate is lowered due to such operational obstacles.

This can happen frequently when high-end bills are widely distributed, and if a cashier has to come and deal with it each time, it will result in a waste of customers and inconvenience.

Accordingly, the present invention has been invented in view of the above circumstances, and is an operation that occurs when a banknote storage box for storing banknotes of a certain kind is completely filled during or before replenishing the banknote through a supplemental collection box in a financial automated machine. The purpose of the present invention is to provide a control method of the banknote replenishment mode of the automatic teller machine which can prevent the inconvenience and the waste of manpower.

In the automatic teller machine having a replenishment mode for replenishing the bills to each bill storage box through the replenishment collection box of the present invention, the control method of the replenishment mode, the step of selecting the replenishment mode in the control unit; Separating the bill from the replenishment collection box and passing the discriminating unit; Replenishing the banknotes passing through the discriminating unit in the banknote storage boxes corresponding to the respective winding types; When the bill storage box of a certain kind of banknotes is filled up by a certain amount during banknote replenishment and receives a signal indicating that the banknotes are no longer accepted, the control unit temporarily sends the bills of the particular winding class to a temporary storage unit or a deposit / exit unit; Refilling the bill storage box corresponding to the bills of the other winding type continuously; After the replenishment of the bill is completed, the step of recovering the bill of the specific kind stored in the temporary storage unit or the withdrawal unit to a replenishment collection box.

In addition, when a bank note storage box of a certain kind of paper is filled in a certain amount or more and no longer accepts a bill before replenishing the bill with each bill storage box, the controller temporarily stores the bill of the specific paper type or the like. Temporarily stored and sent to the deposit and withdrawal, characterized in that the bills except for the specific kind replenish each bill storage box for each kind.

In addition, the bill of the particular kind is preferentially stored in any one of the temporary storage unit and the withdrawal and withdrawal unit, and if the storage capacity of any one of the temporary storage unit and withdrawal and withdrawal portion is exceeded, characterized in that it is continuously stored in the other do.

In addition, the bill replenishment mode is characterized in that the end of the bill replenishment mode when any kind of bills are replenished by the desired number of sheets.

In addition, the bill replenishment mode can replenish the desired number of bills of any one kind, and the temporary storage and the withdrawal part is completely filled before the bill of any one kind is replenished in the bill storage box any more bills If a signal is received that can not accommodate, the control unit is characterized in that the end of the bill refill mode.

According to the present invention, it is possible to prevent an operation failure that occurs when a banknote storage box storing banknotes of a certain kind before or during replenishment of the banknote through the supplemental collection box in the automatic teller machine is completely filled.

Hereinafter, the configuration and operation of the preferred embodiment of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Here, in adding reference numerals to the elements of each drawing, it should be noted that the same elements are denoted by the same reference numerals as much as possible even if they are shown in different drawings.

The schematic configuration of the banknote deposit and withdrawal device 1 of the present invention is the same as the conventional configuration shown in FIG.

However, the banknote entry and withdrawal device of the present invention can continue replenishment of bills without operating obstacles even if the bill storage box for storing the bills of a certain kind before or during replenishment of the bills through the supplemental collection box 60 is completely filled. Provide a control method.

4 is a view showing a path for replenishing banknotes from the replenishment collection box 60 to each banknote storage box 41, 42, 43, 44 in the banknote withdrawal device of the present invention.

When the cashier fills the money in the supplementary collection box 60 and operates the bill supplement mode, the bill stored in the supplementary collection box 60 passes through the discrimination unit 30 to store each kind of bills storage box 41, 42, 43, 44) are stored separately by volume type. At this time, the banknote determined as abnormal banknotes in the discriminating unit 30 is stored in the reject box (70).

A sensor (not shown) is provided at the top of each banknote storage box 41, 42, 43, 44 to count the number of banknotes replenished in the banknote storage box.

For example, when a signal is received from the sensor that the 10,000 won banknote storage boxes 41 and 42 are completely filled and can no longer accept banknotes (the banknotes that can normally be accommodated in a 10,000 Won banknote storage box are 2000) The 10,000 won bill that passed through the unit 30 is sent to the temporary storage unit 50 or the deposit and withdrawal unit 10 is temporarily stored. Banknotes of the remaining winding species (50,000 won, 100,000 won) is stored as a 50,000 won bill storage box 43 and 100,000 won bill storage box 44, respectively.

When the replenishment of the bank notes from the replenishment collection box 60 is completed, the 10,000 won bills stored in the temporary storage unit 50 or the deposit and withdrawal unit 10 are collected again into the replenishment collection box 60.

As such, when a signal indicating that the bill storage box of a certain kind is completely filled during bill replenishment and no longer accepts a bill is received from the sensor, the control unit temporarily stores the bill of the particular kind of paper in the temporary storage unit 50 or withdrawal unit ( 10) by temporarily storing it, it is possible to continue replenishment of bills without operational obstacles.

In the above, the case where the bill storage box of a certain kind is completely filled while replenishing the bill from the supplement collection box 60 has been described. However, when the clerk operates the bill supplement mode, the bill storage box of the specific kind is completely filled to accommodate bills anymore. There may be times when you cannot. Even in this case, bills of a certain kind (for example, 10,000 won bills) are sent to the temporary storage unit 50 or the deposit and withdrawal unit 10 and temporarily stored, and then collected again into the replenishment collection box 60 when the banknote replenishment is finished. .

Hereinafter, for example, a control method in the case where 50 sheets of 50,000 won bills are desired to be replenished in the 50,000 won bill storage box 43 will be described.

When the accountant inputs to supplement 50 thousand won bills through the input unit, the banknotes stored in the supplementary collection box 60 pass through the discriminating unit 30 to store each kind of bills 41, 42, 43, 44) are stored separately by volume type.

When the 10,000 won bill storage boxes 41 and 42 are completely filled and a signal is received from the sensor that can no longer accept bills, the control unit passes the discrimination unit 30 to the temporary storage unit 50 or the deposit or withdrawal unit. Send it to (10) and save it temporarily. Banknotes of the remaining winding species (50,000 won, 100,000 won) is stored as a 50,000 won bill storage box 43 and 100,000 won bill storage box 44, respectively.

When fifty thousand won bills are replenished in the fifty thousand won bill storage box 43, the control unit ends the bill replenishment mode, and the ten thousand bills stored in the temporary storage unit 50 or the withdrawal and retrieval section 10 are supplemented collection box 60 ) Is recovered.

If, when 50 thousand won bills are replenished in the 50,000 won bill storage box 43, a signal is received in the temporary storage unit 50 and the deposit and withdrawal unit 10 that can no longer accommodate bills (temporary storage unit). Banknotes that can normally be accommodated in the and the deposit and withdrawal units are 200 sheets each). Thereafter, the 10,000 won bills stored in the temporary storage unit 50 or the deposit and withdrawal unit 10 are collected again into the supplemental collection box 60.

As described above, in the control method of the bank note replenishment mode according to the present invention, banknote storage for storing the banknotes of a certain kind of paper before or during replenishment of the banknotes through the replenishment collection box 60 to the banknote storage box 40 Even if the box is completely filled and no longer accepts bills, the bills of the specific authority are temporarily sent to the temporary storage unit 50 or the deposit and withdrawal unit 10, and thus temporarily stored. It can prevent customer inconvenience and waste of manpower.

It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that various modifications and variations can be made in the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention will be.
