The cassette sections 302 to 305 are provided with temporary holding receiving plates 312a to 315a, and when temporarily holding the deposited banknotes, these receiving plates protrude into the cassette (state shown by a broken line), and a conveyance path.
Hold the banknotes sent from u, t, s, j. When storing the temporarily stored banknotes and when feeding out the stored banknotes, the receiving plate is retracted out of the cassette and is in a state shown by a solid line.

Inside the cassette units 302 to 305, the stored bill receiving plates 302a to 302a
305a is provided. The stored bill receiving plates 302a to 305a receive bills stored in the cassette, and when the temporary holding receiving plates 312a to 315a project into the cassette at the time of depositing, they are lowered to the lowest position. On the other hand, when paying out the bills for dispensing, the bills are raised and brought into contact with the payout mechanisms 306 to 309 at the top of the piled bills.

Reject section 301, first, second and third storage cassette section 3
02, 303, 304, the replenishment / recovery cassette section 305, and the collection-only cassette section 310 are detected as
The sensors S22 to S25 detect the full state of the banknotes stored in the cassette units 302 to 305.
Made by 15. In addition, the replenishment / recovery cassette unit 305,
The reject unit 301 and the collection cassette unit 310 can be collectively withdrawn from the storage unit 300, and the bills in the cassette are stored in the replenishment / recovery cassette unit 305 and then withdrawn so that the teller can collect them. It is like this.

At the time of withdrawal, bills are taken out one by one by feeding mechanisms 306, 307, 308 driven by pulse motors TM2 to TM4,
The banknote aligner 1 is passed through the transport paths v, w, x, and f, g, h, p, respectively.
04a is sent to the bill validator 104b. The bill identifying unit 104b identifies the denomination, front and back, thickness, skew, chain, etc.
It is sent to the outlet 112 via c, n, z, or to the outlet 109 via the conveyance paths c, d, q. When the customer forgets to pick up the bill sent to the input / output port 109, the bill is collected in the forgotten collection box 110.
The same applies not only to withdrawal, but also to returning banknotes. Sensors S17 to S20 are used to take out bills from each cassette
Is detected, and the number of taken out sheets is counted based on this detection.

For replenishing bills by a teller, when the storage unit 300 is pulled out and inserted into each of the cassette units 302 to 304, and when the replenishment / recovery cassette unit 305 is inserted and the unit 300 is inserted into the main body 100, one sheet is automatically added. Each cassette section 302-304
There is a case where it is stored in the banknote and a case where it is replenished from the bill insertion slot 101a. In the latter two cases, the bill identifying unit 104b performs so-called low-grade identification, and the bills are stored in the storage cassette units 302 to 304. In addition, when replenishing from the bill insertion slot 101a, when each storage cassette unit becomes full, the bills of the corresponding denomination are stored in the replenishment / recovery cassette unit 305.

The payout identifying unit 108 is provided on the transport path h, and when the payout is performed, the banknotes taken out by the feeding mechanisms 306, 307, 308, and 309 are identified as skew, chain, back ticket, and thickness abnormality, and these are detected. Is stored in the reject box 301 through the transport paths i and k.

Incidentally, reference numeral 111 in FIG. 1 denotes a counting reject port, which is used for sending out unidentifiable banknotes when the banknote handling machine is simply used for counting purposes. That is, when the bill processing machine is used for the purpose of counting, the bills are thrown into the teller-side input port 101a and taken one by one by the take-in mechanism 103a to obtain the transport paths a and b, and the bill aligner section 104a, the bills. It is sent to the identification unit 104b. The bill identifying unit 104b identifies bills and counts the bills based on the identification. The banknotes that can be identified, that is, normal banknotes, are sent to the outlet 112 through the front / back reversing unit 105, the transport path n, and the transport path z. On the other hand, the banknotes that could not be identified are the front and back reversing unit 105 and the conveyance path
Then, it is sent out to the counting reject port 111 via the transport paths o and m. As a result, the teller can separately take out the unidentifiable bill and the distinguishable bill.

FIG. 4 is an explanatory diagram of the contents stored in the RAM 404, similar to FIG.
The bill present flag and the full flag are shown. It should be noted that these may be held in the tellers machine 405a as in FIG. 3, or may be held separately if necessary.

The operation of the apparatus shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 will be described below with reference to FIGS. FIG. 5 is a flowchart showing the entire operation. When the device operates, the transaction mode is designated by the operator (eg, teller) (601), and the deposit transaction is instructed by the teller or the customer (602), deposit processing is performed (603). When the withdrawal transaction is instructed without instructing the withdrawal transaction (602, 604), the withdrawal process is executed (605). If the teller tells the replenishment mode without commanding the transaction mode (601,606), the replenishment process is performed (607), and if the replenishment mode is instructed without the replenishment mode being instructed (606,608), the collection process is executed. (609).

6 (a) and 6 (b) show the details of the deposit process 603 of FIG. First, the case where the teller processes the deposit will be described. The teller uses the operation unit 40 of the tellers machine 405a.
When the deposit amount or denomination and the number of deposits are input by operating 6a, this data is stored in the deposit amount memory NKM or the deposit type number memory 10000NMM, 5000NMM, 1000NMM shown in FIG. 3 (a). Next, when the teller inserts the bills received from the customer into the insertion slot 101a, the sensor S1 detects the bills 102a (701), and the pickup mechanism 103a takes the bills inside one by one (702).

The banknotes taken in one by one are brought to one side of the transport path by the banknote aligner section 104a and are high-grade identified by the banknote identification section 104b (703). Then, when it is identified that the thickness is abnormal, the skew, the chain, the counterfeit bill, or the like (704), the lever L1 is switched to be sent to the transport paths n and z and returned to the outlet 112 (70
Five). When it is identified as normal, the deposit count memory 1
1 is added to the corresponding denominations of 0000KMM, 5000KMM and 1000KMM (706).

When the banknote identification unit 104b identifies that the predetermined side surface is the back surface (707), the front / back surface is inverted by the front / back surface reversing unit 105 through the transport path c (708). When the ticket is identified as a front ticket, it is passed through the front / back reversing unit 105 and sent to the conveyance path d (709). As a result, the front and back are aligned and accumulated in the money type temporary holding sections 312, 313, 314 (711). If the bill type temporary holding sections 312, 313, and 314 are filled with the accumulated banknotes, the bills of the filled denominations are thereafter accumulated in the temporary holding section 315.

After that, the taking-in operation is continued as long as the sensor S1 detects the bill (712).

When all the bills are taken in, the Terra is a Terras machine
The number of coin types and the total amount (captured and counted) displayed on the display unit 407a of the unit 405a are compared with the deposit / withdrawal amount or the number of coin types manually input before the deposit process. When these match, the deposit key is operated (713).

Even if some banknotes are returned from the depositing / dispensing machine and the manually input value and the display value of the display unit 407a do not match, the approval key may be operated by agreement between the teller and the customer. In this case, the bill returned from the depositing / dispensing machine is returned to the customer.
On the other hand, when the return switch is pressed on the operation unit 406a of the tellers machine, the teller side deposit is received. (715) Temporary holding unit 312, 313, 314 for the type of money and temporary holding unit 315 for the replenishment / recovery cassette unit
The bill is automatically fed out and conveyed to the outlet 112 through the conveyance paths h, p, c, n and z (716, 717). This conveyance is continued by the sensors S52, S53, S54, S55 until all the bills in the temporary holding section are exhausted (718).

The returned banknotes may be inserted again from the insertion port 101a, or may be additionally inserted when dividedly inserted.

When the approval key is operated in step 713, the bills held in the denomination type temporary holding units 312, 313, 314 and the temporary holding unit 315 of the replenishment / recovery cassette unit are set to the cassette units 302 to 30.
It is stored in 5 (723). And the alloy total amount memory GK
M, deposit counting memory 10000KMM, 5000KMM, 1000KMM is cleared (718).

When the customer himself / herself deposits money, it is almost the same as the deposit processing by the teller described above, but the bills 102b inserted from the deposit / withdrawal unit 101b are taken one by one by the take-in mechanism 103b, and the sensor S3 detects the bill. The sheet is sent out to the conveyance path r and sent to the identification unit 104b until it does not occur. When the identification unit 104b identifies an abnormal thickness, skew, chain, fake bill, etc., it is returned to the input / output port 109 of the deposit / withdrawal unit 101b through the transport path q. Also, regarding the banknotes accumulated in the temporary holding sections 312, 313, 314, 315,
When the customer wants to stop the deposit transaction (714), the bills in the temporary holding sections 312, 313, 314, 315 are automatically delivered (7
19) When the return switch 406c is operated to return to the teller side (720), it is returned to the outlet 112 through the transport paths h, p, c, n, z (721). Also, switch 406c
Is operated to return to the customer side
Returned to 9 (723). And sensors S52, S53, S54, S5
Removal continues until the banknote is no longer detected at 5 (724). If the customer forgets to pick up the bill after all the bills have been taken out and the sensor S8 detects the bills for a predetermined time or longer (725), the support plates 107d and 107e with rollers are moved as shown by broken lines in FIG. It is collected in the forgotten collection box (726).

FIGS. 7 (a) and 7 (b) show the details of the withdrawal process 604 of FIG. Explaining the case where the teller performs the withdrawal process, when the teller operates the operation unit 406a of the tellers machine 405a, the withdrawal amount is stored in the withdrawal amount memory SKM of FIG. 3 (a). Then, the CPU 401 determines the denomination required for withdrawal, sets "1" in the withdrawal denomination flags MFL to SFL in FIG. 3 (b), determines the number of coins to be withdrawn according to the denomination, and outputs this. Store in the gold number memory 10000SMM to 1000SMM.

First, it is judged whether or not the denomination flags necessary for the investment are set to "1" in the order of 10,000 yen, 5,000 yen, and 1,000 yen (801, 802, 803). Then, for example, if the flag MFL of ten thousand yen is "1", the taking out of ten thousand yen is started. That is, the bills (10,000-yen bill) in the first storage cassette unit 302 are fed out by the feeding mechanism 306.
(804) taken out by the sensor of the payout bill detection unit 414.
One is added to the feeding number memory TMM detected in S17 (808). Then, the sheets are sent one by one to the transport paths x and g. The above operation is the same for 5,000 yen and 1,000 yen (805,806). Further, when the flag of "1" is not set in any of the withdrawal money type flags MFL to SFL, an abnormal display is displayed on the display unit 407a of the tellers machine 405a (80
7).

The taken-out banknotes are sent to the withdrawal identification section 108 via the conveyance paths f, g, and h, where the withdrawal identification is performed (809). Then, when it is identified as an abnormal bill that is skewed or chain-conveyed (810), the reject unit 301 passes through the conveyance paths i and k.
(811). When the bill discriminating unit 104b discriminates that the predetermined side surface is the rear face as a result of the front and rear discriminating (812), the front and back reversing unit 105 reverses the front and back (813). On the other hand, if it is the surface, it is sent to the transport path n as it is. When the bill identifying unit 104b determines that the bill is a different denomination bill, for example, when the bill is a 1,000-yen bill despite being taken out from the first storage cassette unit 302 (814), the bill (thousands) (Yen bills) are sent to the dedicated cassette section 310 for collection through the transport paths n, o, i, l (815).

When the bill is a proper bill (normal bill), 1 is added to the identification number memory SBM in FIG. 3 (a) (816), and the bill is ejected.
Sent to 112. The bill sent to the outlet 112 is also sensor S7
Is detected at 1, and 1 is added to the payout number memory HMM. The above operation is repeated until the value of the withdrawal number memory TMM matches the value of the withdrawal number memory SMM (817). When the content of the take-out number memory TMM matches the content of the withdrawal number memory SMM, the content of the payout number memory TMM is next determined.
It is judged whether or not it matches the contents of (818), and if they do not match, the contents of the feeding number memory TMM are rewritten to the contents of the identification number memory SBM (819).

In step 818, if the content of the number-of-feed-outs memory TMM matches the content of the number-of-identifications memory SBM, then the number-of-identifications memory SBM
And the payout number memory HMM contents are compared (82
0) If it matches, it means that the payout is completed normally. Therefore, the flag of the matched denomination (MFL when it is 10,000 yen) is reset to “0” and the payout number memory TMM is also cleared (821).

Next, it is judged whether or not the other denomination (5,000 yen, 1,000 yen) flag is set to "1" (822), and if it is set, the bill of the next denomination is taken out. .

When all the take-out processing is completed, the teller looks at the display section 407 of the tellers machine 405 to confirm whether the payment is normally completed and operates the end key or the cancel key. When the end key is operated (823), after the teller has taken out the banknotes (825), all memory and Fras RFLs are cleared (826). In step 823, if the payment is abnormally terminated and the user wants to cancel the payment, the cancel key of the operation unit 406a is operated. In this case, the payout number memory TMM is cleared (828), and the bills paid out at the same time are Banknote slot after being taken out by a teller and set in replenishment mode
Recovered from 101a.

If re-emission is required (829), the teller resets the memory and repeats the operation (830).

When the customer performs the withdrawal process, the customer side operation unit 405b is used to input the required withdrawal amount or denomination and the number of coins, and the withdrawal amount memory SKM or withdrawal is performed in the same manner as the withdrawal process by the teller. Stored in the number memory 10000SMM, 5000SMM, 1000SMM,
After that, the same processing is performed and the material is discharged to the input / output port 109 through the transport paths (d, q). When the end key is operated (823), a payout process (not shown in FIG. 7) is performed, and then the customer waits for the bill to be taken out (825). When the customer wants to cancel, the cancel key of the operation unit 406b is operated, but in this case, the payout number memory TMM is cleared and the denomination is identified through the identification unit 104b by taking in one by one from the intake mechanism 103b. After that, they are sorted and stored in the cassette units 302 to 304 or the replenishment / recovery cassette unit 305 according to the denomination.

In step 820, the identification number memory SBM and the payout number memory HM
If the contents of M do not match with each other, it is judged whether or not the re-ejection flag RFL is turned on (831), and if it is off, that is, the flag RFL is turned on for the first ejection (83).
2). Then, the temporarily held bills are taken in by the take-in mechanism 103.
It is taken into the inside one by one by b, and is collected in the dedicated cassette section 310 for collection through the transport paths r, n, o, i, l (833). Then, the payout number memory TMM, the identification number memory SBM, and the payout number memory HMM are cleared (834). Then, the denomination required for withdrawal is determined based on the withdrawal amount stored in the withdrawal amount memory SKM of FIG. 3 (a), and the withdrawal type flags MFL to SFL of FIG. 3 (b) are set. When "1" is set, the number of coins to be withdrawn according to the type of coin is 10000SMM
It is stored in ~ 1000SMM (835). Then, the process returns to step 801, and the casting is performed.

If the RFL flag is turned on in step 831, step
Recovered as in 833 (836), Terra's Machine 40
An alarm is issued by voice or a display buzzer on the side of 5a or the main body 100 (837), and the device is designed not to be taken out again.
This is because the two discrepancies have been followed by inconsistencies,
This is for notifying that there is a need for inspection, adjustment, etc., when it is judged that the device is abnormal.

Although the banknotes are conveyed to the collection-dedicated cassette section 310 in step 833 of the above-described embodiment, they may be collectively accumulated in the temporary holding section 315 and fed again, and the identification section 104b. It is also possible to collect them through the money type temporary holding sections 312, 313, 314 and feed them again. In this case, at the time of the second collection, the banknotes may be put into the dedicated cassette section 310 for collection.

〔The invention's effect〕

As described above, according to the present invention, when the deposit process by the customer is canceled in the middle and the deposited banknote needs to be returned, the deposited banknote temporarily held is forced not to the customer side but to the teller side. It is possible for the teller to secure the banknotes brought by the customer and directly check the quality of the inserted banknotes. Then, it is possible to obtain the effect that it is possible to know the cause of the cancellation of the deposit process, such as a discrepancy between the deposited amount and the discrimination / counted amount.
