Moreover, in patent document 1, the banknote number of the object banknote used by the crime etc. is memorize | stored in the memory | storage device, the banknote number is read from the inserted banknote, and it memorize | stores in the read banknote number and memory | storage device. An automatic transaction apparatus is disclosed in which banknote numbers are collated, banknotes whose collation results do not match are stored in a normal safe, and banknotes whose collation results match are stored in a specific safe.
　このように、従来は、読み取った紙幣番号と、記憶装置に記憶されている紙幣番号との照合結果に応じて、取り込んだ紙幣の収納先（搬送先）を切り替えていた。しかし、記憶装置に膨大な数の紙幣番号が記憶されている場合、読み取った紙幣番号との照合に時間がかかり、紙幣の取り込み速度に追いつかず、取り込み紙幣の収納先（搬送先）の切り替えができずに、照合結果が一致した紙幣と一致しなかった紙幣とが混在していた。照合結果が一致した紙幣がある場合は、後で、手作業で選別することになり、手間がかかるという問題があった。 Thus, conventionally, the storage destination (conveyance destination) of the taken banknotes was switched according to the collation result between the read banknote number and the banknote number stored in the storage device. However, when a large number of banknote numbers are stored in the storage device, it takes time to collate with the read banknote number, and it is not possible to keep up with the speed at which banknotes are captured, and the storage destination (conveyance destination) of the captured banknotes can be switched. The banknotes that could not be matched and the banknotes that did not match were mixed. If there is a banknote whose collation result matches, there is a problem that it will be manually sorted later, which is troublesome.

　次に、このような紙幣処理システムを用いた紙幣処理方法を図４に示すフローチャートを用いて説明する。 Next, a bill processing method using such a bill processing system will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG.
　（ステップＳ１０１）紙幣をホッパ１０１に投入する。 (Step S101) The bill is inserted into the hopper 101.
　（ステップＳ１０２）取込部１０２がホッパ１０１に載置された紙幣を１枚ずつ筐体１０８内に取り込む。 (Step S102) The take-in unit 102 takes the banknotes placed on the hopper 101 one by one into the housing 108.
　（ステップＳ１０３）識別部１０５が取り込まれた紙幣の金種、正損等を識別する。また、識別部１０５は紙幣の紙幣番号を読み取る。 (Step S103) The identification unit 105 identifies the denomination, correctness, etc. of the banknote taken in. Moreover, the identification part 105 reads the banknote number of a banknote.
　（ステップＳ１０４）制御部１７０が、識別部１０５の識別結果及びモード切替部１１０により設定されている分類モードに基づいて紙幣の搬送先を決定し、搬送部１０３を制御する。紙幣が、集積部１６５ａ～１６５ｄ、第一リジェクト部１０９ａ、又は第二リジェクト部１０９ｂに集積される。 (Step S104) The control unit 170 determines the banknote transport destination based on the identification result of the identification unit 105 and the classification mode set by the mode switching unit 110, and controls the transport unit 103. The banknotes are stacked on the stacking units 165a to 165d, the first reject unit 109a, or the second reject unit 109b.
　例えば、分類モードが金種別分類であった場合、紙幣が金種別に集積部１６５ａ～１６５ｄに集積される。また、第一リジェクト部１０９ａにリジェクト紙幣が集積され、第二リジェクト部１０９ｂにサスペクト紙幣が集積される。 For example, when the classification mode is money type classification, the banknotes are stacked in the stacking units 165a to 165d by money type. In addition, reject banknotes are stacked on the first reject unit 109a, and suspect banknotes are stacked on the second reject unit 109b.
　また、分類モードが方向別分類であった場合、紙幣が方向別に集積部１６５ａ～１６５ｄに集積される。方向は、表前、表後、裏前、裏後の４方向ある。具体的には、肖像が上で且つ肖像の頭の方から取り込まれる方向が表前、肖像が上で且つ頭と反対の方から取り込まれる方向が表後、肖像が下で且つ肖像の頭の方から取り込まれる方向が裏前、肖像が下で且つ頭と反対の方から取り込まれる方向が裏後となる。 Further, when the classification mode is the direction classification, the banknotes are accumulated in the accumulation units 165a to 165d for each direction. There are four directions, front, back, front, and back. Specifically, the direction in which the portrait is up and taken from the head of the portrait is the front, the direction in which the portrait is taken from the top and the opposite side of the head is the front, the portrait is down and the head of the portrait is The direction taken from the front is the back, and the direction taken from the opposite side of the head and the portrait is the back.
　（ステップＳ１０５）ホッパ１０１に載置された紙幣が全て取り込まれた場合はステップＳ１０６に進む。ホッパ１０１に紙幣が残っている場合はステップＳ１０２に戻る。 (Step S105) When all the banknotes placed on the hopper 101 are taken in, the process proceeds to Step S106. When banknotes remain in the hopper 101, the process returns to step S102.
　（ステップＳ１０６）紙幣処理装置１００の通信部１８０が、識別部１０５がステップＳ１０３で読み取った全ての紙幣についての紙幣番号を、管理装置２００の通信部２２０へ送信する。なお、この送信処理は、ステップＳ１０３で１枚の紙幣の紙幣番号情報を読み取った直後に、その紙幣ごとに実行するようにしてもよい。 (Step S106) The communication unit 180 of the banknote processing apparatus 100 transmits the banknote numbers for all banknotes read by the identification unit 105 in step S103 to the communication unit 220 of the management apparatus 200. Note that this transmission process may be executed for each bill immediately after reading the bill number information of one bill in step S103.
　（ステップＳ１０７）管理装置２００において、照合部２４０が、ステップＳ１０６において紙幣処理装置１００から受信した紙幣番号と、記憶部２３０に格納されている紙幣番号とを照合する。 (Step S107) In the management apparatus 200, the collation unit 240 collates the banknote number received from the banknote processing apparatus 100 in step S106 with the banknote number stored in the storage unit 230.
　（ステップＳ１０８）照合結果が一致した紙幣番号があった場合、照合部２４０は、この紙幣番号を通信部２２０に渡す。 (Step S <b> 108) When there is a banknote number that matches the verification result, the verification unit 240 passes the banknote number to the communication unit 220.
　記憶部２３０には、偽造紙幣等の検出対象紙幣の紙幣番号が格納されている。従って、照合結果が一致した紙幣番号があるということは、ステップＳ１０２～Ｓ１０５において紙幣処理装置１００が処理した紙幣に偽造紙幣等の検出対象紙幣が含まれていることを示す。 The storage unit 230 stores banknote numbers of banknotes to be detected such as counterfeit banknotes. Therefore, the presence of a banknote number with a matching result indicates that the banknote processed by the banknote processing apparatus 100 in steps S102 to S105 includes a banknote to be detected such as a counterfeit banknote.
　照合結果が一致した紙幣番号がなかった場合は、処理を終了する。 If there is no banknote number that matches the verification result, the process is terminated.
　（ステップＳ１０９）通信部２２０が、照合結果が一致した紙幣番号を通信部１８０へ送信する。通信部１８０は、通信部２２０から受信した紙幣番号を記憶部１９０に格納する。通信部１８０が通信部２２０から受信する紙幣番号は、ステップＳ１０６において通信部１８０が通信部２２０へ送信した紙幣番号に含まれるものである。 (Step S <b> 109) The communication unit 220 transmits the banknote number with the matching result to the communication unit 180. The communication unit 180 stores the banknote number received from the communication unit 220 in the storage unit 190. The banknote number received by the communication unit 180 from the communication unit 220 is included in the banknote number transmitted by the communication unit 180 to the communication unit 220 in step S106.
　（ステップＳ１１０）ステップＳ１０４で集積部１６５ａ～１６５ｄに集積された紙幣を、ホッパ１０１に再度投入する。このとき、ステップＳ１０４で第一リジェクト部１０９ａ及び第二リジェクト部１０９ｂに集積された紙幣をホッパ１０１に再度投入してもよい。 (Step S110) The banknotes accumulated in the accumulating units 165a to 165d in step S104 are again inserted into the hopper 101. At this time, the banknotes accumulated in the first reject unit 109a and the second reject unit 109b in step S104 may be loaded again into the hopper 101.
　（ステップＳ１１１）取込部１０２がホッパ１０１に載置された紙幣を１枚ずつ筐体１０８内に取り込む。 (Step S111) The take-in unit 102 takes the banknotes placed on the hopper 101 one by one into the housing 108.
　（ステップＳ１１２）識別部１０５が取り込まれた紙幣の金種、正損等を識別する。また、識別部１０５は紙幣の紙幣番号を読み取る。 (Step S <b> 112) The identification unit 105 identifies the denomination, correctness, and the like of the banknote taken in. Moreover, the identification part 105 reads the banknote number of a banknote.
　（ステップＳ１１３）制御部１７０が、記憶部１９０に格納されている紙幣番号と、ステップＳ１１２で読み取られた紙幣番号とを照合する。そして、制御部１７０が、照合結果、識別部１０５の識別結果、及びモード切替部１１０により設定されている分類モードに基づいて紙幣の搬送先を決定し、搬送部１０３を制御する。制御部１７０は、照合結果が一致した紙幣（紙幣番号が記憶部１９０に格納されている紙幣番号と同じ紙幣）が、照合結果が不一致の紙幣とは異なる集積部１６５ａ～１６５ｄ、第一リジェクト部１０９ａ、又は第二リジェクト部１０９ｂに集積されるように、紙幣の搬送先を決定する。 (Step S113) The control unit 170 collates the banknote number stored in the storage unit 190 with the banknote number read in step S112. And the control part 170 determines the conveyance destination of a banknote based on the collation result, the identification result of the identification part 105, and the classification mode set by the mode switching part 110, and controls the conveyance part 103. FIG. The control unit 170 includes the stacking units 165a to 165d and the first reject unit in which banknotes with matching results (banknotes having the same banknote number as banknote numbers stored in the storage unit 190) are different from banknotes with matching results that do not match. The bill transport destination is determined so as to be accumulated in 109a or the second reject unit 109b.
　（ステップＳ１１４）紙幣が集積部１６５ａ～１６５ｄ、第一リジェクト部１０９ａ、又は第二リジェクト部１０９ｂに集積される。 (Step S114) The banknotes are stacked on the stacking units 165a to 165d, the first reject unit 109a, or the second reject unit 109b.
　（ステップＳ１１５）ホッパ１０１に載置された紙幣が全て取り込まれた場合は処理を終了する。ホッパ１０１に紙幣が残っている場合はステップＳ１１１に戻る。 (Step S115) When all the bills placed on the hopper 101 have been taken in, the processing is terminated. When banknotes remain in the hopper 101, the process returns to step S111.
　このような処理により、ステップＳ１１３での照合の結果が一致した紙幣が、照合結果が不一致の紙幣とは異なる集積部１６５ａ～１６５ｄ、第一リジェクト部１０９ａ、又は第二リジェクト部１０９ｂに集積される。 By such processing, the banknotes whose collation results in step S113 match are stacked on the stacking units 165a to 165d, the first reject unit 109a, or the second reject unit 109b, which are different from the banknotes whose collation results do not match. .
　例えば、照合結果が一致した紙幣は集積部１６５ａに集積され、照合結果が不一致の紙幣はモード切替部１１０により設定されている分類モードに基づいて集積部１６５ｂ～１６５ｄに集積される。例えば、照合結果が不一致の紙幣が金種別に集積部１６５ｂ～１６５ｄに集積される。 For example, banknotes with matching results are stacked on the stacking unit 165a, and banknotes with unmatched matching results are stacked on the stacking units 165b to 165d based on the classification mode set by the mode switching unit 110. For example, banknotes with mismatched collation results are accumulated in the accumulating units 165b to 165d by denomination.
　または、第一リジェクト部１０９ａ又は第二リジェクト部１０９ｂの一方に照合結果が一致した紙幣が集積され、他方にリジェクト紙幣及びサスペクト紙幣が集積され、照合結果が不一致の紙幣が集積部１６５ａ～１６５ｄに集積される。照合結果が一致した紙幣を第一リジェクト部１０９ａ又は第二リジェクト部１０９ｂに集積することで、照合結果が不一致の紙幣の分類に全ての集積部１６５ａ～１６５ｄを利用することができ、細かい分類を行うことができる。 Alternatively, banknotes with matching results are accumulated on one of the first reject unit 109a or the second reject unit 109b, rejected banknotes and suspect banknotes are accumulated on the other, and banknotes with unmatched matching results are collected at the stacking units 165a to 165d. Accumulated. By accumulating the banknotes with matching results in the first reject unit 109a or the second reject unit 109b, all the stacking units 165a to 165d can be used to classify banknotes with inconsistent verification results. It can be carried out.
　あるいはまた、照合結果が一致した紙幣が集積部１６５ａ～１６５ｄ又は第一リジェクト部１０９ａ又は第二リジェクト部１０９ｂに集積された時点で紙幣の取込と搬送を停止しても良い。さらに、照合結果が一致した紙幣を集積部又はリジェクト部から取り除くことで、紙幣の取込と搬送を再開するようにしても良い。 Alternatively, the taking-in and transporting of banknotes may be stopped when the banknotes whose matching results match are stacked on the stacking units 165a to 165d, the first reject unit 109a, or the second reject unit 109b. Furthermore, it is possible to resume the taking-in and transport of banknotes by removing banknotes whose matching results match from the stacking unit or the rejecting unit.
　このように、本実施形態によれば、管理装置２００が、紙幣処理装置１００の１回目の紙幣処理（ステップＳ１０１～Ｓ１０５）で読み取られた紙幣番号と、自身の記憶部２３０に記憶されている検出対象紙幣の紙幣番号とを照合し、一致した紙幣番号を紙幣処理装置１００に通知する。そして、紙幣処理装置１００は、２回目の紙幣処理（ステップＳ１１０～Ｓ１１５）で、管理装置２００から通知された紙幣番号を持つ紙幣を、他の紙幣と分けて分類集積する。 As described above, according to the present embodiment, the management device 200 stores the banknote number read in the first banknote processing (steps S101 to S105) of the banknote processing apparatus 100 and the storage unit 230 of the banknote number. The banknote number of the banknote to be detected is collated, and the banknote number that matches is notified to the banknote processing apparatus 100. Then, the banknote handling apparatus 100 classifies and accumulates banknotes having banknote numbers notified from the management apparatus 200 separately from other banknotes in the second banknote processing (steps S110 to S115).
　管理装置２００の記憶部２３０に格納されている検出対象紙幣の紙幣番号は多数あるが、ステップＳ１１３で紙幣処理装置１００が照合に用いる紙幣番号は、そのうちの一部であり、紙幣処理装置１００が１回目の紙幣処理で取り込んだ検出対象紙幣の紙幣番号のみである。従って、ステップＳ１１３の照合は、紙幣の取り込み速度に合わせて速やかに行うことができ、照合結果が一致した紙幣と一致しなかった紙幣とを選別し、分類集積することができる。 Although there are many banknote numbers of the banknotes to be detected stored in the storage unit 230 of the management apparatus 200, the banknote numbers used for verification by the banknote processing apparatus 100 in step S113 are some of them, and the banknote processing apparatus 100 It is only the banknote number of the detection target banknote taken in by the first banknote processing. Therefore, the collation in step S113 can be performed promptly according to the bill taking-in speed, and the banknotes whose collation results coincide with those that do not coincide can be selected and classified and accumulated.
　上記第１の実施形態において、制御部１７０は、１回目の紙幣処理における各紙幣の紙幣番号と搬送先とを紐付けて記憶しておき、管理装置２００から通知された紙幣番号の紙幣が集積されている集積部１６５ａ～１６５ｄをオペレータに通知するようにしてもよい。例えば、管理装置２００から通知された紙幣番号の紙幣が集積されている集積部１６５ａ～１６５ｄに対応する表示部１１１ａ～１１１ｄに、検出対象紙幣が含まれていることを表示させる。管理装置２００から通知された紙幣番号の紙幣が第一リジェクト部１０９ａ又は第二リジェクト部１０９ｂに集積されている場合は、モード切替部１１０の表示手段に表示させる。検出対象紙幣が含まれている集積部１６５ａ～１６５ｄの紙幣のみ２回目の紙幣処理を行うことで、２回目の紙幣処理に要する時間を短縮し、検出対象紙幣をさらに速やかに選別することができる。 In the first embodiment, the control unit 170 associates and stores the banknote number and the transport destination of each banknote in the first banknote processing, and the banknotes of the banknote number notified from the management device 200 are accumulated. The stacked units 165a to 165d may be notified to the operator. For example, the display units 111a to 111d corresponding to the stacking units 165a to 165d in which the banknotes having the banknote numbers notified from the management apparatus 200 are stacked are displayed to indicate that the banknotes to be detected are included. When the banknote of the banknote number notified from the management apparatus 200 is accumulated in the first reject unit 109a or the second reject unit 109b, it is displayed on the display unit of the mode switching unit 110. Only the banknotes of the stacking units 165a to 165d containing the detection target banknotes are subjected to the second banknote processing, so that the time required for the second banknote processing can be shortened and the detection target banknotes can be further quickly selected. .
　（第２の実施形態）上記第１の実施形態に係る紙幣処理システムの紙幣処理装置１００は図１及び図２に示すように、複数の集積部１６５ａ～１６５ｄを備え、取り込んだ紙幣を分類して集積できるものであったが、図５及び図６に示すように集積部が１つの紙幣処理装置３００を用いてもよい。 (Second Embodiment) As shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the banknote handling apparatus 100 of the banknote handling system according to the first embodiment includes a plurality of stacking units 165a to 165d, and classifies the banknotes taken in. However, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, a banknote processing apparatus 300 having a single stacking unit may be used.
　図５は、紙幣処理装置３００の斜視図であり、図６は断面図である。図５、図６に示すように、紙幣処理装置３００の筐体３０８の上部には紙幣を束状態で受け付けるホッパ（受付部）３０１が設けられ、筐体３０８の前面部には操作パネル３１０と、計数された紙幣を集積する１つの集積部３６５が設けられている。 FIG. 5 is a perspective view of the banknote handling apparatus 300, and FIG. 6 is a cross-sectional view. As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, a hopper (accepting unit) 301 that accepts banknotes in a bundled state is provided on the upper portion of the housing 308 of the banknote handling apparatus 300, and an operation panel 310 is provided on the front surface of the housing 308. One stacking unit 365 for stacking the counted banknotes is provided.
　図６に示すように、ホッパ３０１に投入された紙幣３１０は、キッカローラ３１２、フィードローラ３１３、及びゲートローラ３１４からなる取込部３０２により１枚ずつ繰り出され、機内に取り込まれる。取り込まれた紙幣は、搬送部３０３により搬送される。スタッカファン３１８は、搬送部３０３によって搬送された紙幣を羽根内に１枚ずつ取り込み、集積部３６５内に集積する。搬送部３０３には、紙幣の金種、真偽、正損、方向等を識別する識別部３０５が設けられている。また、識別部３０５はＯＣＲ（Optical Character Recognition）機能を有しており、紙幣番号情報として紙幣番号を読み取ることができる。 As shown in FIG. 6, banknotes 310 inserted into the hopper 301 are fed out one by one by a take-in section 302 including a kicker roller 312, a feed roller 313, and a gate roller 314, and taken into the machine. The taken banknote is conveyed by the conveyance unit 303. The stacker fan 318 takes in banknotes conveyed by the conveyance unit 303 one by one into the blade and accumulates them in the accumulation unit 365. The transport unit 303 is provided with an identification unit 305 that identifies the denomination, authenticity, correctness, direction, and the like of banknotes. Moreover, the identification part 305 has an OCR (Optical | Character | Character | Recognition) function, and can read a banknote number as banknote number information.
　図７は紙幣処理システムのブロック構成図である。紙幣処理装置３００は、図５及び図６には示されていない制御部３７０、通信部３８０及び記憶部３９０をさらに備えている。通信部３８０は、識別部３０５により読み取られた紙幣番号を管理装置２００へ送信する。また、通信部３８０は、管理装置２００から紙幣番号を受信すると、受信した紙幣番号を記憶部３９０に格納する。 FIG. 7 is a block diagram of the banknote processing system. The banknote handling apparatus 300 further includes a control unit 370, a communication unit 380, and a storage unit 390 that are not shown in FIGS. The communication unit 380 transmits the banknote number read by the identification unit 305 to the management device 200. Moreover, the communication part 380 will store the received banknote number in the memory | storage part 390, if a banknote number is received from the management apparatus 200. FIG.
　制御部３７０は、記憶部３９０に紙幣番号が格納されている場合、記憶部３９０に格納されている紙幣番号と、識別部３０５が読み取った紙幣番号とを照合し、照合結果が一致した場合に、紙幣の取り込み及び搬送等の動作を停止するように、取込部３０２及び搬送部３０３等を制御する。 When the banknote number is stored in the storage unit 390, the control unit 370 collates the banknote number stored in the storage unit 390 with the banknote number read by the identification unit 305, and when the collation result matches. Then, the taking-in unit 302, the carrying unit 303, and the like are controlled so as to stop the operations such as taking in and carrying out bills.
　管理装置２００の構成は上記第１の実施形態と同様であり、記憶部２３０は、あらかじめ、偽造紙幣等の検出対象紙幣の紙幣番号が複数記録されたデータベースとなっている。通信部２２０は、紙幣処理装置３００の通信部３８０から紙幣番号を受信すると、受信した紙幣番号を照合部２４０に渡す。照合部２４０は、紙幣処理装置３００から受信した紙幣番号と、記憶部２３０に格納されている紙幣番号とを照合する。照合部２４０は、照合結果が一致した紙幣番号を通信部２２０に渡す。通信部２２０は、照合部２４０から受け取った紙幣番号を紙幣処理装置３００の通信部３８０へ送信する。 The configuration of the management device 200 is the same as that of the first embodiment, and the storage unit 230 is a database in which a plurality of banknote numbers of detection target banknotes such as counterfeit banknotes are recorded in advance. When the communication unit 220 receives the banknote number from the communication unit 380 of the banknote processing apparatus 300, the communication unit 220 passes the received banknote number to the verification unit 240. The collation unit 240 collates the banknote number received from the banknote processing apparatus 300 with the banknote number stored in the storage unit 230. The collation unit 240 passes the bill number whose collation result matches to the communication unit 220. The communication unit 220 transmits the banknote number received from the verification unit 240 to the communication unit 380 of the banknote processing apparatus 300.
　次に、このような紙幣処理システムを用いた紙幣処理方法を図８に示すフローチャートを用いて説明する。 Next, a bill processing method using such a bill processing system will be described with reference to the flowchart shown in FIG.
　（ステップＳ２０１）紙幣をホッパ３０１に投入する。 (Step S201) The bill is put into the hopper 301.
　（ステップＳ２０２）取込部３０２がホッパ３０１に載置された紙幣を１枚ずつ筐体３０８内に取り込む。 (Step S202) The take-in unit 302 takes in the bills placed on the hopper 301 one by one into the housing 308.
　（ステップＳ２０３）識別部３０５が取り込まれた紙幣の金種、正損等を識別する。また、識別部３０５は紙幣の紙幣番号を読み取る。 (Step S203) The identification unit 305 identifies the denomination, correctness, and the like of the banknote taken in. Moreover, the identification part 305 reads the banknote number of a banknote.
　（ステップＳ２０４）紙幣が集積部３６５に集積される。 (Step S204) The banknotes are stacked on the stacking unit 365.
　（ステップＳ２０５）ホッパ３０１に載置された紙幣が全て取り込まれた場合はステップＳ２０６に進む。ホッパ３０１に紙幣が残っている場合はステップＳ２０２に戻る。 (Step S205) When all the banknotes placed on the hopper 301 are taken in, the process proceeds to Step S206. When banknotes remain in the hopper 301, the process returns to step S202.
　（ステップＳ２０６）紙幣処理装置３００の通信部３８０が、識別部３０５がステップＳ２０３で読み取った全ての紙幣についての紙幣番号を、管理装置２００の通信部２２０へ送信する。なお、この送信処理は、ステップＳ１０３で１枚の紙幣の紙幣番号情報を読み取った直後に、その紙幣ごとに実行するようにしてもよい。 (Step S206) The communication unit 380 of the banknote processing apparatus 300 transmits the banknote numbers for all banknotes read by the identification unit 305 in step S203 to the communication unit 220 of the management apparatus 200. Note that this transmission process may be executed for each bill immediately after reading the bill number information of one bill in step S103.
　（ステップＳ２０７）管理装置２００において、照合部２４０が、ステップＳ２０６において紙幣処理装置３００から受信した紙幣番号と、記憶部２３０に格納されている紙幣番号とを照合する。 (Step S207) In the management apparatus 200, the collation unit 240 collates the banknote number received from the banknote processing apparatus 300 in step S206 with the banknote number stored in the storage unit 230.
　（ステップＳ２０８）照合結果が一致した紙幣番号があった場合、照合部２４０は、この紙幣番号を通信部２２０に渡す。 (Step S <b> 208) When there is a banknote number that matches the verification result, the verification unit 240 passes this banknote number to the communication unit 220.
　記憶部２３０には、偽造紙幣等の検出対象紙幣の紙幣番号が格納されている。従って、照合結果が一致した紙幣番号があるということは、ステップＳ２０２～Ｓ２０５において紙幣処理装置３００が処理した紙幣に偽造紙幣等の検出対象紙幣が含まれていることを示す。 The storage unit 230 stores banknote numbers of banknotes to be detected such as counterfeit banknotes. Accordingly, the fact that there is a banknote number with a matching result indicates that the banknote processed by the banknote processing apparatus 300 in steps S202 to S205 includes a banknote to be detected such as a counterfeit banknote.
　照合結果が一致した紙幣番号がなかった場合は、処理を終了する。 If there is no banknote number that matches the verification result, the process is terminated.
　（ステップＳ２０９）通信部２２０が、照合結果が一致した紙幣番号を通信部３８０へ送信する。通信部３８０は、通信部２２０から受信した紙幣番号を記憶部３９０に格納する。通信部３８０が通信部２２０から受信する紙幣番号は、ステップＳ２０６において通信部３８０が通信部２２０へ送信した紙幣番号に含まれるものである。 (Step S209) The communication unit 220 transmits to the communication unit 380 the banknote number whose matching result matches. The communication unit 380 stores the banknote number received from the communication unit 220 in the storage unit 390. The banknote number received by the communication unit 380 from the communication unit 220 is included in the banknote number transmitted by the communication unit 380 to the communication unit 220 in step S206.
　（ステップＳ２１０）ステップＳ２０４で集積部３６５に集積された紙幣を、ホッパ３０１に再度投入する。 (Step S <b> 210) The banknotes accumulated in the accumulation unit 365 in Step S <b> 204 are again inserted into the hopper 301.
　（ステップＳ２１１）取込部３０２がホッパ３０１に載置された紙幣を１枚ずつ筐体３０８内に取り込む。 (Step S211) The take-in unit 302 takes in the bills placed on the hopper 301 one by one into the housing 308.
　（ステップＳ２１２）識別部３０５が取り込まれた紙幣の金種、正損等を識別する。また、識別部３０５は紙幣の紙幣番号を読み取る。 (Step S212) The identifying unit 305 identifies the denomination, correctness, and the like of the banknote taken in. Moreover, the identification part 305 reads the banknote number of a banknote.
　（ステップＳ２１３）制御部３７０が、記憶部３９０に格納されている紙幣番号と、ステップＳ２１２で読み取られた紙幣番号とを照合する。 (Step S213) The control unit 370 collates the banknote number stored in the storage unit 390 with the banknote number read in step S212.
　（ステップＳ２１４）紙幣が集積部３６５に集積される。 (Step S214) The banknotes are stacked on the stacking unit 365.
　（ステップＳ２１５）ステップＳ２１３での照合結果が一致している場合はステップＳ２１６へ進み、照合結果が一致していない場合はステップＳ２１８へ進む。 (Step S215) If the collation result in step S213 matches, the process proceeds to step S216. If the collation result does not match, the process proceeds to step S218.
　（ステップＳ２１６）制御部３７０が、取込部３０２及び搬送部３０３を停止させる。これにより、記憶部３９０に格納されている紙幣番号と同じ紙幣番号を持つ紙幣が集積部３６５に集積されている紙幣の最上部に集積された状態で、紙幣処理装置３００の動作が停止する。 (Step S216) The control unit 370 stops the take-in unit 302 and the transport unit 303. Thereby, the operation of the banknote handling apparatus 300 stops in a state where banknotes having the same banknote number as the banknote number stored in the storage unit 390 are stacked on the top of the banknotes stacked in the stacking unit 365.
　（ステップＳ２１７）オペレータにより、集積部３６５に集積されている紙幣のうち、最上部に集積された紙幣（記憶部３９０に格納されている紙幣番号と同じ紙幣番号を持つ紙幣）が取り出される。 (Step S217) Of the banknotes stacked in the stacking unit 365, the banknotes stacked at the top (banknotes having the same banknote number as the banknote number stored in the storage unit 390) are taken out by the operator.
　（ステップＳ２１８）ホッパ３０１に載置された紙幣が全て取り込まれた場合は処理を終了する。ホッパ３０１に紙幣が残っている場合はステップＳ２１１に戻る。 (Step S218) When all the banknotes placed on the hopper 301 are taken in, the process is terminated. If banknotes remain in the hopper 301, the process returns to step S211.
　このように、本実施形態によれば、管理装置２００が、紙幣処理装置３００の１回目の紙幣処理（ステップＳ２０１～Ｓ２０５）で読み取られた紙幣番号と、自身の記憶部２３０に記憶されている検出対象紙幣の紙幣番号とを照合し、一致した紙幣番号を紙幣処理装置３００に通知する。そして、紙幣処理装置３００は、２回目の紙幣処理（ステップＳ２１０～Ｓ２１８）で、管理装置２００から通知された紙幣番号を持つ紙幣を取り込んだ場合、この紙幣を集積部３６５に集積して停止する。 Thus, according to the present embodiment, the management device 200 is stored in the banknote number read in the first banknote processing (steps S201 to S205) of the banknote processing apparatus 300 and the storage unit 230 of the banknote processing apparatus 300. The banknote number of the banknote to be detected is collated, and the banknote number that matches is notified to the banknote processing apparatus 300. When the banknote processing apparatus 300 fetches a banknote having the banknote number notified from the management apparatus 200 in the second banknote processing (steps S210 to S218), the banknote processing apparatus 300 stacks the banknote on the stacking unit 365 and stops. .
　管理装置２００の記憶部２３０に格納されている検出対象紙幣の紙幣番号は多数あるが、ステップＳ２１３で紙幣処理装置３００が照合に用いる紙幣番号は、そのうちの一部であり、紙幣処理装置３００が１回目の紙幣処理で取り込んだ検出対象紙幣の紙幣番号のみである。従って、ステップＳ２１３の照合は、紙幣の取り込み速度に合わせて速やかに行うことができ、照合結果が一致した場合に紙幣処理装置３００を停止させることで、照合結果が一致した紙幣と一致しなかった紙幣とを選別することができる。 There are many banknote numbers of the banknotes to be detected stored in the storage unit 230 of the management apparatus 200, but the banknote numbers used for verification by the banknote processing apparatus 300 in step S213 are a part of the banknote numbers. It is only the banknote number of the detection target banknote taken in by the first banknote processing. Therefore, the collation in step S213 can be quickly performed in accordance with the bill taking-in speed, and when the collation result matches, the bill processing apparatus 300 is stopped so that the collation result does not coincide with the bill. Banknotes can be sorted out.
　（第３の実施形態）上記第１、第２の実施形態では１回目の紙幣処理（図４のステップＳ１０１～Ｓ１０５、図８のステップＳ２０１～Ｓ２０５）と、２回目の紙幣処理（図４のステップＳ１１０～Ｓ１１５、図８のステップＳ２１０～Ｓ２１８）を同一の紙幣処理装置１００、３００で行っていたが、紙幣処理システムに紙幣処理装置を２台設け、１回目の紙幣処理と２回目の紙幣処理を異なる紙幣処理装置で行うようにしてもよい。 (Third Embodiment) In the first and second embodiments, the first banknote process (steps S101 to S105 in FIG. 4 and steps S201 to S205 in FIG. 8) and the second banknote process (in FIG. 4). Steps S110 to S115 and steps S210 to S218 in FIG. 8 were performed by the same banknote processing apparatus 100, 300. However, two banknote processing apparatuses are provided in the banknote processing system, and the first banknote processing and the second banknote are performed. You may make it process by a different banknote processing apparatus.
　例えば、図９に示すように、紙幣処理装置１００と同様の構成の紙幣処理装置１００Ａ、１００Ｂを設け、紙幣処理装置１００Ａが１回目の紙幣処理（図４のステップＳ１０１～Ｓ１０５）を行った後、紙幣処理装置１００Ａの集積部１６５ａ～１６５ｄから紙幣を取り出して紙幣処理装置１００Ｂのホッパ１０１に投入して、２回目の紙幣処理（図４のステップＳ１１０～Ｓ１１５）を行ってもよい。管理装置２００は、紙幣処理装置１００Ａから紙幣番号を受信して、記憶部２３０に格納されている紙幣番号と照合し、照合結果が一致した紙幣番号を紙幣処理装置１００Ｂに通知する。 For example, as shown in FIG. 9, after banknote processing apparatuses 100A and 100B having the same configuration as the banknote processing apparatus 100 are provided and the banknote processing apparatus 100A performs the first banknote processing (steps S101 to S105 in FIG. 4). Alternatively, the banknotes may be taken out from the stacking units 165a to 165d of the banknote processing apparatus 100A and inserted into the hopper 101 of the banknote processing apparatus 100B to perform the second banknote processing (steps S110 to S115 in FIG. 4). The management device 200 receives the banknote number from the banknote processing apparatus 100A, collates it with the banknote number stored in the storage unit 230, and notifies the banknote processing apparatus 100B of the banknote number whose collation result matches.
　また、紙幣処理装置１００Ａが、１回目の紙幣処理における各紙幣の紙幣番号と搬送先（紙幣が集積された集積部）との関連付けを管理装置２００に送信し、管理装置２００が、照合結果の一致した紙幣番号の紙幣が集積されていた紙幣処理装置１００Ａの集積部１６５ａ～１６５ｄ又は第一リジェクト部１０９ａ又は第二リジェクト部１０９ｂをオペレータに通知するようにしてもよい。オペレータは、通知された紙幣処理装置１００Ａの集積部１６５ａ～１６５ｄ又は第一リジェクト部１０９ａ又は第二リジェクト部１０９ｂから取り出した紙幣のみ紙幣処理装置１００Ｂのホッパ１０１に投入して、２回目の紙幣処理を行うことで、検出対象紙幣の選別に要する時間を短縮することができる。 Also, the banknote processing apparatus 100A transmits the association between the banknote number of each banknote and the transport destination (stacking unit on which banknotes are stacked) in the first banknote processing to the management apparatus 200. The operator may be notified of the stacking units 165a to 165d, the first reject unit 109a, or the second reject unit 109b of the banknote processing apparatus 100A in which the banknotes having the same banknote number have been stacked. The operator inserts only the notified banknotes taken out from the stacking units 165a to 165d or the first reject unit 109a or the second reject unit 109b of the banknote processing apparatus 100A into the hopper 101 of the banknote processing apparatus 100B, and performs the second banknote processing. By performing this, it is possible to shorten the time required for sorting the bills to be detected.
　また、図１０に示すように、紙幣処理装置３００と同様の構成の紙幣処理装置３００Ａ、３００Ｂを設け、紙幣処理装置３００Ａが１回目の紙幣処理（図８のステップＳ２０１～Ｓ２０５）を行った後、紙幣処理装置３００Ａの集積部３６５から紙幣を取り出して紙幣処理装置３００Ｂのホッパ３０１に投入して、２回目の紙幣処理（図８のステップＳ２１０～Ｓ２１８）を行ってもよい。管理装置２００は、紙幣処理装置３００Ａから紙幣番号を受信して、記憶部２３０に格納されている紙幣番号と照合し、照合結果が一致した紙幣番号を紙幣処理装置３００Ｂに通知する。紙幣処理装置３００Ａは、管理装置２００における照合処理の終了を待たずに、次の紙幣束の処理を行うことができるため、紙幣処理装置３００Ａを効率良く稼働させることができる。 Also, as shown in FIG. 10, banknote processing apparatuses 300A and 300B having the same configuration as the banknote processing apparatus 300 are provided, and after the banknote processing apparatus 300A performs the first banknote processing (steps S201 to S205 in FIG. 8). Alternatively, the banknotes may be taken out from the stacking unit 365 of the banknote processing apparatus 300A and inserted into the hopper 301 of the banknote processing apparatus 300B to perform the second banknote processing (steps S210 to S218 in FIG. 8). The management device 200 receives the banknote number from the banknote processing apparatus 300A, collates it with the banknote number stored in the storage unit 230, and notifies the banknote processing apparatus 300B of the banknote number whose collation result matches. Since the banknote handling apparatus 300A can process the next banknote bundle without waiting for the end of the verification process in the management apparatus 200, the banknote handling apparatus 300A can be operated efficiently.
　また、図１１に示すように、紙幣処理装置１００及び紙幣処理装置３００を１台ずつ設け、紙幣処理装置３００が１回目の紙幣処理（図８のステップＳ２０１～Ｓ２０５）を行った後、紙幣処理装置３００の集積部３６５から紙幣を取り出して紙幣処理装置１００のホッパ１０１に投入して、２回目の紙幣処理（図４のステップＳ１１０～Ｓ１１５）を行ってもよい。この場合、管理装置２００は、紙幣処理装置３００から紙幣番号を受信して、記憶部２３０に格納されている紙幣番号と照合し、照合結果が一致した紙幣番号を紙幣処理装置１００に通知する。 Moreover, as shown in FIG. 11, after the banknote processing apparatus 100 and the banknote processing apparatus 300 are provided one by one and the banknote processing apparatus 300 performs the first banknote processing (steps S201 to S205 in FIG. 8), the banknote processing The banknotes may be taken out from the stacking unit 365 of the apparatus 300 and inserted into the hopper 101 of the banknote processing apparatus 100 to perform the second banknote processing (steps S110 to S115 in FIG. 4). In this case, the management apparatus 200 receives the banknote number from the banknote processing apparatus 300, collates it with the banknote number stored in the storage unit 230, and notifies the banknote processing apparatus 100 of the banknote number whose collation result matches.
　あるいはまた、紙幣処理装置１００が１回目の紙幣処理（図４のステップＳ１０１～Ｓ１０５）を行った後、紙幣処理装置１００の集積部１６５から紙幣を取り出して紙幣処理装置３００のホッパ３０１に投入して、２回目の紙幣処理（図８のステップＳ２１０～Ｓ２１８）を行ってもよい。この場合、管理装置２００は、紙幣処理装置１００から紙幣番号を受信して、記憶部２３０に格納されている紙幣番号と照合し、照合結果が一致した紙幣番号を紙幣処理装置３００に通知する。 Alternatively, after the banknote processing apparatus 100 performs the first banknote processing (steps S101 to S105 in FIG. 4), the banknotes are taken out from the stacking unit 165 of the banknote processing apparatus 100 and put into the hopper 301 of the banknote processing apparatus 300. Then, the second bill processing (steps S210 to S218 in FIG. 8) may be performed. In this case, the management apparatus 200 receives the banknote number from the banknote processing apparatus 100, collates it with the banknote number stored in the storage unit 230, and notifies the banknote processing apparatus 300 of the banknote number whose collation result matches.
　また、図１１に示すように、紙幣処理装置１００及び紙幣処理装置３００を１台ずつ設ける場合に、紙幣処理装置３００の識別部３０５のＯＣＲ機能を省略し、管理装置２００にＯＣＲ機能を持たせるようにしてもよい。識別部３０５は、紙幣番号情報として紙幣番号領域のイメージデータを取得し、このイメージデータが紙幣処理装置３００から管理装置２００へ送信される。管理装置２００のＯＣＲ処理部（図示せず）が、受信したイメージデータをＯＣＲ処理して紙幣番号のテキストデータを取得する。 Moreover, as shown in FIG. 11, when providing the banknote processing apparatus 100 and the banknote processing apparatus 300 one each, the OCR function of the identification part 305 of the banknote processing apparatus 300 is abbreviate | omitted, and the management apparatus 200 is made to have an OCR function. You may do it. The identification unit 305 acquires image data of the banknote number area as banknote number information, and the image data is transmitted from the banknote processing apparatus 300 to the management apparatus 200. An OCR processing unit (not shown) of the management apparatus 200 performs OCR processing on the received image data and acquires text data of banknote numbers.
　そして、照合部２４０が、ＯＣＲ処理部により取得された紙幣番号と、記憶部２３０に格納されている紙幣番号とを照合する。照合結果が一致した紙幣番号があった場合、照合部２４０は、この紙幣番号を通信部２２０に渡し、通信部２２０が、照合結果が一致した紙幣番号を通信部１８０へ送信する。通信部１８０は、通信部２２０から受信した紙幣番号を記憶部１９０に格納する。そして、紙幣処理装置３００の集積部３６５から紙幣を取り出して紙幣処理装置１００のホッパ１０１に投入して、２回目の紙幣処理（図４のステップＳ１１０～Ｓ１１５）を行ってもよい。 And the collation part 240 collates the banknote number acquired by the OCR process part with the banknote number stored in the memory | storage part 230. FIG. If there is a banknote number that matches the verification result, the verification unit 240 passes the banknote number to the communication unit 220, and the communication unit 220 transmits the banknote number that matches the verification result to the communication unit 180. The communication unit 180 stores the banknote number received from the communication unit 220 in the storage unit 190. Then, the banknotes may be taken out from the stacking unit 365 of the banknote processing apparatus 300 and inserted into the hopper 101 of the banknote processing apparatus 100 to perform the second banknote processing (steps S110 to S115 in FIG. 4).
　また、図１に示す紙幣処理システムにおいて、管理装置２００にＯＣＲ機能を持たせてもよい。例えば、紙幣処理装置１００の１回目の紙幣処理（ステップＳ１０１～Ｓ１０５）では、識別部１０５は紙幣番号領域のイメージデータを紙幣番号情報として取得するが、ＯＣＲ処理は行わない。紙幣処理装置１００の１回目の紙幣処理で取得されたイメージデータは、管理装置２００へ送信される。管理装置２００のＯＣＲ処理部（図示せず）が、受信したイメージデータをＯＣＲ処理して紙幣番号のテキストデータを取得する。 Further, in the banknote handling system shown in FIG. 1, the management device 200 may have an OCR function. For example, in the first banknote processing (steps S101 to S105) of the banknote processing apparatus 100, the identification unit 105 acquires the image data of the banknote number area as banknote number information, but does not perform OCR processing. The image data acquired by the first banknote processing of the banknote processing apparatus 100 is transmitted to the management apparatus 200. An OCR processing unit (not shown) of the management apparatus 200 performs OCR processing on the received image data and acquires text data of banknote numbers.
　そして、照合部２４０が、ＯＣＲ処理部により取得された紙幣番号と、記憶部２３０に格納されている紙幣番号とを照合する。照合結果が一致した紙幣番号があった場合、照合部２４０は、この紙幣番号を通信部２２０に渡し、通信部２２０が、照合結果が一致した紙幣番号を通信部１８０へ通知する。そして、紙幣処理装置１００は、２回目の紙幣処理（ステップＳ１１０～Ｓ１１５）でＯＣＲ処理を行い、管理装置２００から通知された紙幣番号を持つ紙幣を、他の紙幣と分けて分類集積する。このように、１回目の紙幣処理は、ＯＣＲ処理を含まないため、２回目の紙幣処理と比較して、高速に識別計数処理を行うことができる。 And the collation part 240 collates the banknote number acquired by the OCR process part with the banknote number stored in the memory | storage part 230. FIG. When there is a banknote number that matches the collation result, the collation unit 240 passes the banknote number to the communication unit 220, and the communication unit 220 notifies the communication unit 180 of the banknote number that the collation result matches. The banknote processing apparatus 100 performs OCR processing in the second banknote processing (steps S110 to S115), and classifies and accumulates banknotes having banknote numbers notified from the management apparatus 200 separately from other banknotes. Thus, since the 1st banknote process does not include an OCR process, compared with the 2nd banknote process, an identification count process can be performed at high speed.
　また、識別部１０５、３０５が取得する紙幣番号情報、記憶部２３０に格納されている紙幣番号情報、または照合部２４０が照合する紙幣番号情報は、紙幣に付与された紙幣番号の一部の情報であってもよい。例えば、紙幣に印刷された紙幣番号の上位３桁のみを照合したい場合、照合部２４０は、識別部１０５、３０５が取得する紙幣番号情報および記憶部２３０に格納されている紙幣番号情報から、紙幣番号の上位３桁のみに関する情報について照合するようにしてもよい。また、このような場合、識別部１０５、３０５が取得する紙幣番号情報または記憶部２３０に格納されている紙幣番号情報を、紙幣番号の上位３桁に関する情報のみとしてもよい。 Moreover, the banknote number information which the identification parts 105 and 305 acquire, the banknote number information stored in the memory | storage part 230, or the banknote number information which the collation part 240 collates is some information of the banknote number provided to the banknote. It may be. For example, when only the upper three digits of the banknote number printed on the banknote are to be verified, the verification unit 240 determines the banknote from the banknote number information acquired by the identification units 105 and 305 and the banknote number information stored in the storage unit 230. You may make it collate about the information regarding only the upper 3 digits of a number. Moreover, in such a case, it is good also considering only the information regarding the upper 3 digits of a banknote number for the banknote number information which the identification parts 105 and 305 acquire, or the banknote number information stored in the memory | storage part 230.
