- the storage unit 40 stores the number N1 of banknotes of the first type TY1 and the number N2 of banknotes of the second type TY2 as count values.
- the count value is managed for each of the first to third banknote storage cassettes 21 -1 to 21 -3 .
- the storage unit 40 stores accumulated information that specifies the order in which the banknotes are stacked in the banknote storage cassette 21 and information indicating which of the first and second types TY1 and TY2 belongs. To do.
- the count value is obtained from the accumulated information.
- the control unit 30 updates the accumulation information stored in the storage unit 40 in accordance with the accumulation of banknotes in the banknote storage cassette 21 and the delivery of banknotes from the banknote storage cassette 21. As the accumulated information is updated, the count value is updated. As a result, the number of banknotes accumulated in the banknote storage cassette 21 is always managed by the control unit 30. Note that it is also possible to manage only the count value without storing the accumulated information.
- the control unit 30 assigns the type to which the banknotes belong to the first and second types TY1, TY2 and the count value stored in the storage unit 40, that is, the banknote storage cassette 21. Based on the number of the stacked banknotes for each of the first and second types TY1, TY2, a determination is made to permit stacking on the banknote storage cassette 21 (permission determination).
- control unit 30 can output guidance to be described later from an information output unit 35 such as a display or a voice output device provided in the banknote processing apparatus 1.
- FIG. 6 is a flowchart showing an example of a process for controlling the conveyance operation of banknotes to the banknote storage cassette 21.
- the depositing part 11 takes in one banknote at a time (S11).
- the taken banknote is conveyed by the conveyance part 15, and the denomination, front and back, and direction are identified by the identification part 13 (S12).
- the direction of the banknote is classified into one of the AD directions shown in FIG.
- the control unit 30 receives the identification result sent from the identification unit 13 for the banknote conveyed by the conveyance unit 15. And the kind of bill is specified from the identified front and back and direction (S13). As described above, here, banknotes in the A direction and the C direction are set as the first type TY1, and banknotes in the B direction and the D direction are set as the second type TY2. In addition, the control unit 30 reads the counter value from the storage unit 40 for the banknote storage cassette 21 of the identified denomination (for example, the banknote storage cassette 21 ⁇ 1 ) (S14). The counter value represents the number of each first and second types TY1, TY2 of banknotes that are stacked in the banknote storage cassette 21 -1.
- the control unit 30 determines whether or not to allow the conveyed banknotes to be stacked on the banknote storage cassette 21 (S15-S19).
- a determination is made using the difference in the number of sheets (N1-N2) as an index value indicating the banknote stacking state.
- N1-N2 is considerably large, that is, when the number of bills of the first type TY1 is considerably larger than the number of bills of the second type TY2, the inclination of the paper surface in the longitudinal direction of the stacked bills becomes large,
- the banknote accumulation state in the banknote storage cassette 21 is unstable. In this state, further stacking the first type TY1 banknotes is not preferable because it promotes the degree of instability. Therefore, when (N1-N2) is less than the threshold value TH1 (for example, 100), it is determined that stacking on the banknote storage cassette 21 is permitted (S18). It is determined that the accumulation is not permitted (S19).
- the banknote is of the second type TY2
- a determination is made using the difference in the number of sheets (N2 ⁇ N1) as an index value indicating the stacking state of the banknotes.
- (N2-N1) is considerably large, that is, when the second type TY2 banknotes are considerably larger than the first type TY1 banknotes, the inclination of the paper surface in the longitudinal direction of the stacked banknotes becomes large.
- the banknote accumulation state in the banknote storage cassette 21 is unstable. Accumulating the second type TY2 banknotes in this state is not preferable because it promotes the degree of instability.
- (N2-N1) is less than the threshold value TH2 (for example, 100)
- the threshold value TH2 for example, 100
- the threshold values TH1 and TH2 may be the same value or different values.
- the control unit 30 controls the transport unit 15 to stack the banknotes in the banknote storage cassette 21 (S20). And the accumulation
- the control unit 30 determines not to allow the stacking, the control unit 30 does not stack the banknotes in the banknote storage cassette 21, but instead transports the banknotes to the dispensing unit 12 which is an example of a discharge unit.
- the unit 15 is controlled (S22). That is, the banknote determined not to permit accumulation is returned. This eliminates the need to stop the process even when it is determined that the accumulation into the banknote storage cassette 21 is not permitted.
- banknotes that are not permitted to be stacked in the banknote storage cassette 21 may be transported to the temporary storage unit 14 instead of being transported to the withdrawal unit 12, or transported to the recovery cassette 23, which is an example of a storage unit. May be.
- the control unit 30 may control the transport unit 15 so that banknotes determined not to be stacked are stacked in, for example, the fifth banknote storage cassette 21-5 as the second stacking unit.
- the control unit 30 controls the transport unit 15 so that banknotes that are not permitted to be stacked in the banknote storage cassette 21 are transported to the withdrawal unit 12 or the recovery cassette 23, and the transport destination.
- the withdrawal unit 12 or the collection cassette 23 may be configured to be switchable.
- the switching setting may be performed via an operation input unit such as a touch panel provided in the banknote handling apparatus 1.
- control part 30 which controls the conveyance operation
- the difference in the number of sheets is obtained as an index value indicating the banknote stacking state in the banknote storage cassette 21, and based on this difference, A determination is made to permit accumulation of banknotes in the banknote storage cassette 21. For this reason, the conveyance control based on the accumulation state of the actual banknote in the banknote storage cassette 21 can be performed exactly. Moreover, the conveyance control based on the actual stacking state of the banknotes in the banknote storage cassette 21 can be easily executed by using the difference in the number of sheets.
- the banknotes to be taken in may be aligned in the same front / back and orientation. In such a case, if stacking of the banknotes taken into the banknote storage cassette 21 is not permitted, many of the banknotes that are subsequently taken will not be allowed to stack into the banknote storage cassette 21 as well. For this reason, many banknotes will be conveyed and returned to, for example, the withdrawal unit 12, for example, a wasteful work such that a user who does not know the cause of the return will return the banknotes again. May occur. Therefore, the control unit 30 may stop the operation of taking in the banknotes of the depositing unit 11 when the banknotes that have been taken in are not allowed to be stacked in the banknote storage cassette 21.
- control unit 30 may output information (guidance) for prompting the change of the front / back side or the direction of the banknote taken in from the depositing unit 11 to the outside of the apparatus 1 via the information output unit 35.
- the user who has received this guidance can change the front and back sides of the banknotes or change the direction of the banknotes and insert them again.
- the guidance output may be performed without stopping the bill taking operation of the depositing unit 11.
- control unit 30 determines whether or not to permit the collection in the case where the stop of the taking-in operation and the guidance output as described above are not permitted but not permitted to accumulate the taken-in banknotes in the banknote storage cassette 21. It may be executed when the determination history satisfies a predetermined condition. In this case, the determination history may be stored in the storage unit 40, for example.
- the predetermined condition for example, when accumulation is not permitted continuously for a predetermined denomination (for example, 10 sheets) for one denomination, the accumulated number of sheets that is not permitted for accumulation for one denomination is a predetermined value (for example, When the number of denominations handled by the device 1 is not permitted, the accumulation of all denominations is not permitted. If the cumulative number of sheets that has not been permitted reaches a predetermined value, it is conceivable. Moreover, you may control an execution timing using mutually different conditions about the stop of the taking-in operation
- the difference in the number of banknotes of the first and second types TY1, TY2 is used as the index value indicating the banknote accumulation state in the banknote storage cassette 21, but other index values can also be used. It is.
- the value of the ratio of the number of banknotes of the first and second types TY1, TY2 may be used. That is, as the difference between the number of first and second types TY1, TY2 increases and the degree of instability of the stacked state in the bill storage cassette 21 increases, the value of the number ratio deviates from 1. Therefore, the value of the number ratio can be used as an index value.
- the banknote stacking state in the banknote storage cassette 21 is intended to suppress the inclination of the paper surface in the longitudinal direction of the banknotes, but it is also possible to suppress the inclination of the paper surface in the short direction in the same manner. It is.
- banknotes in the A direction and D direction may be the first type TY1
- banknotes in the B direction and C direction may be the second type TY2.
- the first and second types TY1, TY2 have different thickness distributions in the lateral direction. That is, the banknotes belonging to the first type TY1 are thicker on the upper side in FIG.
- banknotes are managed by dividing them into two types, but this is not restrictive.
- the four directions shown in FIG. 2 may be managed as separate types. That is, banknotes in the A, B, C, and D directions may be managed as the first to fourth types TY1, TY2, TY3, and TY4, respectively.
- FIG. 7 is an example of the number data of banknotes stored in the storage unit 40 in this case.
- the number of banknotes accumulated in the banknote storage cassette 21 is managed as a count value.
- the storage unit 40 counts the number N1 of the first type TY1 banknotes, the number N2 of the second type TY2 banknotes, the number N3 of the third type TY3 banknotes, and the fourth type TY4.
- the number N4 of banknotes is stored.
- the first type TY1 corresponds to the A direction
- the second type TY2 corresponds to the B direction
- the third type TY3 corresponds to the C direction
- the fourth type TY4 corresponds to the D direction.
- the storage unit 40 stores accumulated information that specifies the order in which the banknotes are stacked in the banknote storage cassette 21 and information indicating which of the first to fourth types TY1 to TY4 belongs. To do. Here, it is assumed that the count value is obtained from the accumulated information.
- the difference or ratio between (N1 + N3) and (N2 + N4) may be used as an index value indicating the banknote accumulation state.
- the difference between the total number of banknotes in the A direction and the C direction where the left side of the paper is thick and the total number of banknotes in the B direction and the D direction where the right side of the paper is thick is suppressed.
- the difference or ratio between (N1 + N4) and (N2 + N3) may be used as an index value indicating the banknote accumulation state.

Abstract
Description
前記制御部は、前記集積部への集積を許可しなかった紙葉類について、前記排出部に搬送されるよう、前記搬送部を制御する、としてもよい。
図1は、紙幣処理装置1の構成を示す概念図である。紙幣処理装置1は、銀行等の金融機関の店舗において使用される装置である。紙幣処理装置1は、図1の例では、紙幣の入金処理、及び、出金処理を行う紙幣入出金機である。この紙幣処理装置1は、いわゆる循環式の紙幣入出金機である。つまり、紙幣処理装置1が出金処理時に払い出す紙幣には、入金処理時に、装置内に収納した紙幣が含まれる。なお、紙幣処理装置1は、循環式の紙幣入出金機に限定されない。また、紙幣処理装置1は、紙幣入出金機に限らない。
この紙幣処理装置1が処理対象とする紙幣のうち少なくとも一部は、その紙面の一部が凸になっており、厚さが一様でなく、偏りを有している。具体的には、図2に概念的に示すように、紙幣100における所定の箇所に、紙幣の金種を示す点字101が設けられている。または、図示は省略するが、紙幣100の一部に、偽造防止用のスレッドや、ホログラムが設けられている。スレッドは、紙幣100の、例えば短手方向の端から端まで延びて設けられるものでもよいし、紙幣100の一部分のみに設けられるものでもよい。
図4は、紙幣収納カセット21の集積状態に応じて、新たな紙幣の搬送動作を制御するための構成を示すブロック図である。制御部30は、紙幣収納カセット21における紙幣の集積状態に基づいて、入金部11から取り込まれた紙幣について、紙幣収納カセット21への搬送動作を制御する。ここでは、紙幣収納カセット21の中の、第1~第3の紙幣収納カセット21-1~21-3を制御対象としている。なお、制御部30の機能の一部または全部は、ハードウェアまたはソフトウェアによって実現される。例えば、紙幣処理装置1内に設けられた制御基板上に構成された回路や、記録されたプログラムを実行するマイクロコンピュータ等によって、制御部30は実現可能である。また、制御部30は、紙幣処理装置1内の他の制御部と別個に構成されてもよいし、一体に構成されてもかまわない。
(その1)
上の例では、紙幣収納カセット21における紙幣の集積状態を表す指標値として、第1および第2の種類TY1,TY2の紙幣の枚数の差を用いたが、他の指標値を用いることも可能である。例えば、第1および第2の種類TY1,TY2の紙幣の枚数の比の値を用いてもよい。すなわち、第1および第2の種類TY1,TY2の枚数差が大きくなり、紙幣収納カセット21における集積状態の不安定度合が増すにつれて、枚数比の値は1から離れていく。したがって、枚数比の値を指標値として用いることが可能である。
上の例では、紙幣収納カセット21における紙幣の集積状態について、紙幣の長手方向における紙面の傾きを抑制することを目的としたが、同様にして、短手方向における紙面の傾きを抑えることも可能である。この場合には、図2に示す4つの方向について、A方向およびD方向の紙幣を第1の種類TY1とし、B方向およびC方向の紙幣を第2の種類TY2とすればよい。この場合、第1および第2の種類TY1,TY2は、短手方向において厚さの分布が異なっている。すなわち、第1の種類TY1に属する紙幣は、図2における上側が、点字101の存在によって厚くなっており、一方、第2の種類TY2に属する紙幣は、図2における下側が、点字101の存在によって厚くなっている。紙幣収納カセット21に、第1および第2の種類TY1,TY2の紙幣を、その枚数差が大きくならないように集積することによって、積み重ねた紙幣の短手方向における傾きを抑えることができる。
上の例では、紙幣を2種類に分けて管理するものとしたが、これに限られるものではない。例えば、図2に示す4つの方向について、それぞれを別個の種類として管理してもよい。すなわち、A,B,C,D方向の紙幣をそれぞれ、第1~第4の種類TY1,TY2,TY3,TY4として管理してもよい。
上の例では、第1および第2の種類TY1,TY2の枚数の差が閾値以上であるとき、言い換えると、指標値が許容範囲を超えているとき、紙幣収納カセット21への紙幣の集積を行わない(禁止する)ものとしたが、これに限られるものではない。例えば、指標値が許容範囲を超えているとき、当該紙幣収納カセット21の集積に関する優先順位を下げるようにしてもよい。これにより例えば、他に優先順位の高い選択肢があるとき(例えば、指標値が許容範囲内である紙幣収納カセット21が他にあるときなど)は、その選択肢を採用するようにし、他に優先順位の高い選択肢がないときは、元の紙幣収納カセット21への集積を実行する、といった制御が可能になる。
上の例では、識別した紙幣の金種に対応する紙幣収納カセット21が1個であることを前提として説明を行った。ただし、識別された紙幣の金種に対応する紙幣収納カセット21が複数ある場合でも、同様の処理が可能である。
上の例では、紙幣収納カセット21に紙幣が集積されたことを条件として、集積された順番と、第1および第2の種類TY1,TY2のいずれに属するかを示す情報とを特定する集積情報を更新し、カウント値は、集積情報から求められるものとしたが、これに限られるものではない。例えば、図6のフローチャートにおいて、紙幣収納カセット21への集積を許可すると判断した(S18)ときや、紙幣収納カセット21への集積を許可しないと判断した(S19)ときに、カウント値を更新してもよい。これにより、紙幣が識別部13を通過した直後にカウント値を更新できるので、その紙幣が紙幣収納カセット21に集積されるまでに識別部13に到着した次の紙幣について、更新されたカウント値を用いて、次の紙幣の指標値を評価することができる。また、紙幣の搬送中にエラーが発生して装置が停止した場合は、集積情報とカウント値が一致していないので、搬送中の紙幣をすべて取り除くとともに、集積情報から正しいカウント値を作成すればよい。
上の実施形態では、紙幣処理装置1において、集積部の一例である紙幣収納カセット21における紙幣の集積状態を望ましい状態に近づける制御について、説明した。ただし、上述した制御は、他の構成にも適用できる。
