When customer requirement Cancelled Transaction, the bank note that is taken in the bill handling device 1 was returned in the indication of ATM main body.This bank note is incorporated in storage part, trustship portion or this two place of incorporating section 330 for the moment usually.Bill handling device 1 is according to following return the in place of taking in bank note.
Above temporary portion 330, be provided with the transmission road 305 that is used to transmit stacked bank note B.This transmission road 305 can be sent to receptacle 100 with the stacked bank note B that is accommodated in temporary portion 330.The transmission of stacked bank note B on this transmission road 305 is to use forwarder 341 to carry out.By such transmission, as each overlapping bank note of stacked bank note B by forwarder 341 supportings.Therefore, can be suitably and transmit stacked bank note B reliably, avoid bank note crisscross outstanding situation to overlapping direction in transmission reliably.
Transmitting on the road 305, be provided with a plurality of gears that are used for to forwarder 341 transferring power.By the transmission of power from these gears, forwarder 341 moves along being set at the defeated paper guide plate (not diagram) that transmits on the road 305.Thereby make to the gear of forwarder 341 transferring power different because of the position that this forwarder 341 is transmitting on the road 305.In each one 331,332,312, also be provided with so defeated paper guide plate.
When bank note only is incorporated in storage part, RSV platform portion 331 is moved to the position (off-position) of transmitting on the road 305.At this moment, forwarder 341 has moved to the position (trustship retreating position) in the back side of the platform portion 331 of this off-position.Stacked bank note B in the platform portion 331 is sent to into bank note dispensing port 101 by receptacle 100 after moving to the position (off-position) of the front of receptacle 100 at this forwarder 341.In order to make gate open, for example, when moving to the off-position, carries out by forwarder 341 notice to the ATM main body.The position of the forwarder 341 before the transfer table portion 331, and notice ATM main body the time be engraved under other the situation also basic identical.
When bank note only is incorporated in trustship portion, RSV platform portion 331 is moved to the retreating position (upper end position) that transmits on the road 305, ESC platform portion 332 is moved to the position (off-position) of transmitting on the road 305.Stacked bank note B in this one 332 is sent to into bank note dispensing port 101 by receptacle 100 after moving to the position (off-position) of the front of receptacle 100 at forwarder 341.
When bank note is incorporated in storage part, when reaching trustship portion two places, RSV platform portion 331 is moved to the position (off-position) of transmitting on the road 305.At this moment, platform portion 312, and pusher 313 be in the state that moves to upper end position separately.Stacked bank note B in the RSV platform portion 331 is transported in the platform portion 312 by forwarder 341 is moved to separated part 310.Then, platform portion 312 is moved downwards, pusher 313 is moved to the interflow of the upper end position of platform portion 312 ready position.After pusher 313 moves to the interflow ready position, make fork shown in Figure 1 342 outstanding towards pusher 313 (front).After outstanding like this, pusher 313 is moved to upper end position.
Because bank note has elasticity, will be kept the state of its warpage by the bank note of warpage.Like this, when being overlapping, its height changes because of the elastic force that acts on each bank note at bank note.Many more its height of bank note with warpage are with regard to high more tendency.Thus, fork 342 be in the platform portion 312 stacked bank note B transmit on the road 305 outstanding and be provided with.
This fork 342 is the height at the interflow ready position, and road 305 is outstanding along transmitting, and being provided with from the mode that outstanding state is kept out of the way.For it can be given prominence to, be provided with recess at pusher 313.Thus, with pusher 313, make fork 342 outstanding with the state that suppresses the stacked bank note B in the platform portion 312, make pusher 313 move to the top after, by fork 342 suppress stacked bank note B transmit on the road 305 outstanding.
The forwarder 341 that stacked bank note B in the RSV platform portion 331 is sent to separated part 310 turns back to the trustship retreating position.Then, each one 331,332 is moved in regular turn to upper end position.The upper end position of ESC platform portion 332 is equivalent to the off-position of RSV platform portion 331.Thus, forwarder 341 is moved, the stacked bank note B in the ESC platform portion 332 is sent to separated part 310.
By being sent to separated part 310, stacked bank note B is transported on the fork 342.After having transmitted this stacked bank note B, fork 342 is kept out of the way.Thus, in platform portion 312, the stacked bank note B that be accommodated in stacked bank note B in the storage part, is accommodated in the trustship portion is overlapping according to the order of sequence, reduces a stacker coin.Reduce a folded bank note B, move to upper end position, be sent to the off-position of receptacle 100, and then be sent to into bank note dispensing port 101 by receptacle 100 by forwarder 341 by making platform portion 312.Like this, return to client.
Like this, in the present embodiment, the bank note that is incorporated in storage part, trustship portion respectively concluded together return.This is to return respectively and the client that causes forgets and fetches bank note for fear of the bank note that will be contained.The bank note that client forgets to get for example is accommodated in discarded case 353.
When concluding the business (deposit) at customer requirement, the bank note that is taken into bill handling device 1 is taken in the indication of ATM main body.This bank note is incorporated in storage part, trustship portion or this two place of incorporating section 330 for the moment.Bill handling device 1 carries out following taking in according to the place of bank note containing.
Unusual coin promptly is incorporated in storage part by differentiation for the bank note of normal coin.Like this, when bank note only was incorporated in storage part, this bank note was returned.The situation that the bank note that will only be incorporated in storage part that the action of this moment and client's cancellation requirement are produced is returned is basic identical.
When bank note only is accommodated in trustship portion, RSV platform portion 331 is moved to the upper end position of keeping out of the way that transmits on the road 305, ESC platform portion 332 is moved to the off-position of transmitting on the road 305, the stacked bank note B in this one 332 is sent to separated part 310.To be sent to separated part 310 one by one from the stacked bank note B that transmits, via transmitting road 301, discriminating portion 320, and transmitting road 302 and be sent to lower unit 200.
At lower unit 200, the cassette of removably distinguishing by the Currency Type of taking in bank note 210 is installed.Top in each cassette 210 of installing is provided with the connecting gear 211 of the transmission of the bank note of taking in and being contained that carries out bank note.Be sent to the bank note of lower unit 200, transmitted, be directed into the cassette 210 that take in, be contained by connecting gear 211 by the conversion pawl that is arranged on this transmission road 201 by transmitting road 201.Thus, the bank note of client's insertion is incorporated in cassette 210 respectively according to the Currency Type difference.
When bank note is incorporated in storage part, and during trustship portion two places, the bank note that is accommodated in storage part is returned to client as mentioned above like that, and the bank note that only will be accommodated in trustship portion is sent to separated part 310.Make the bank note that is sent to be sent to separated part 310 one by one, with differentiate for the bank note of normal coin via transmitting road 301, discriminating portion 320, and transmit road 302 and be sent to lower unit 200, different and be accommodated in cassette 210 respectively by Currency Type.With differentiate for the bank note of unusual coin via transmitting road 301, discriminating portion 320, transmit road 302, and transmitting road 304 and be accommodated in discarded case 351 or 352.Or, for example, temporarily be accommodated in storage part after, by being sent to separated part 310, carry out the discriminating once more of unusual coin.
Like this, in the present embodiment, be sent to the stacked paper class B former state that client is inserted separated part 310, take out bank note from stacked bank note B, with the bank note containing that takes out and differentiated after temporary portion 330, state with stacked bank note B transmits and returns, or moves it this separated part 310.Therefore, with will differentiate after the bank note the taken in situation of taking out transmission one by one compare, more can shorten the transmitting range that transmits bank note one by one.Thus, can further be reduced in the incidence of the obstacles such as card coin in the transmission, and then improve reliability.
Below, be elaborated at the action of withdrawing the money.This is withdrawn the money, and for example, by the operating portion of client operating ATM, seek out that the amount of money of withdrawing the money of appointment carries out.When client carries out requirement, the withdraw the money bank note of the amount of money of ATM main body indication bill handling device 1.After client has specified the bank note of expectation, with this given content notice bill handling device 1.
When bill handling device 1 is received this indication from the ATM main body, for example, the number of the bank note that should take out by the Currency Type decision, according to this decision, the cassette 210 from taking out bank note takes out bank note one by one by connecting gear 211.The bank note that is removed is sent to discriminating portion 320 via the transmission road 306 of transmitting road 201 and upper unit 300 and differentiates.Differentiate by this, the bank note that is judged as normal coin is sent to trustship portion, the bank note that is judged as unusual coin is sent to discarded case 351 or 352.
Till the transmission of the bank note that trustship portion carries out reaches the amount of money of withdrawing the money of client's appointment up to the bank note of taking in.After having finished the bank note of taking in this amount of money of withdrawing the money, identical with the situation of returning the bank note only be accommodated in trustship portion, make forwarder 314 move to the off-position of front of receptacle 100 after, be sent to into bank note dispensing port 101 by receptacle 100.
Bank note when making loans like this, also be the state with stacked bank note B be sent to receptacle 100 advance bank note dispensing port 101.Therefore, even bill handling device 1 is provided with and forms with the little space that also can guarantee at the periphery that advances bank note dispensing port 101.
Below, at the structure of receptacle 100, be elaborated with reference to Fig. 2～5.
Fig. 2 is the figure of structure of the transmission system of explanation receptacle 100.As shown in Figure 2, receptacle 100 has: be arranged on the anchor clamps 103 that transmit 102 tops, road; Be arranged on the pallet 104 that transmits 102 belows, road; Be installed in the hook 105 on this pallet 104; Along transmitting the travelling belt 106 that road 102 is used to transmit stacked bank note B; Be used to confirm the scrambler 107 of the conveying capacity of the stacked bank note B that transmits by travelling belt 106; Be arranged on the sensor in different positions 109～112 that transmits on the road 102; Be arranged on the diverse location that transmits on the road 102, can carry out to the detent 113,114 that transmits outstanding on the road 102 and keep out of the way.Direction in that the direction of transfer of stacked bank note B intersects disposes a plurality of hooks 105, detent 113,114 with form arranged side by side.
Above-mentioned scrambler 107 possesses: disk 107a, and it rotates along with the rotation of the motor of transmission of power being given travelling belt 106; Sensor 107b, it is arranged on the circumference of this disk 107a, is used to detect slit.This sensor 107b is the optical sensor that has light-emitting component, reaches photo detector.Light quilt shading intermittently from this light-emitting component ejaculation owing to the rotation of disk 107a.From the photo detector output pulse signal, determine actual conveying capacity thus by counting this pulse signal.
Above-mentioned pallet 104 is to support from the parts of the stacked bank note B that advances bank note dispensing port 101 insertions with tabular parts.Hook 105 mounted thereto can be given prominence to, keep out of the way to transmitting on the road 102.When inserting stacked bank note B, as shown in Figure 2, the defeated paper guide plate of the stacked bank note B length that use should be inserted.
From the viewpoint of Fig. 2, pallet 104 carries out with the ribbon with the overlapping stretching setting of mode of travelling belt 106 along mobile being to use of transmitting road 102.In order to determine this amount of movement, have scrambler 107 as shown in Figure 2 in addition.As for detent 113,114, for fear of confusion, the detent 113 that will be arranged on front face side respectively is called the A detent, and the detent 114 that is arranged on the back side is called the D detent.
Fig. 3 A～C is the structure of the above-mentioned anchor clamps 103 of explanation and the figure that drives system thereof.
These anchor clamps 103 support 4 travelling belts 123 that stacked bank note B transmits usefulness by a plurality of axles that comprise axle 121,122 with extended state as shown in Figure 3A.The defeated paper guide plate 124 of the insertion usefulness of a plurality of stacked bank note B is installed on 121 at the axle that is positioned at the foremost side.The power that is used to drive travelling belt 123 is by 1 axle, as transmitting by 121.This power also is passed to the travelling belt 106 that is configured in downside.
For the stacked bank note B that makes insertion is in the state that is clipped between anchor clamps 103 and the pallet 104, make anchor clamps 103 can with move along the crisscross of direction that transmits road 102.Making this move the driving that can carry out is by the mechanical arm 131,132 of the both end sides that is installed in axle 121,122 respectively, realizes that this moves.Power is delivered to mechanical arm 132, and this power is by connecting rod 133 and then pass to mechanical arm 131.
Shown in Fig. 3 B, mechanical arm 131,132 can be that the center is rotated with axle 131a, 132a respectively.End at these mechanical arms forms recess 131b, 132b respectively, and axle 121,122 is rotatably installed in this recess 131b, 132b.The opposing party end 132c circular-arc in being of mechanical arm 132 forms tooth, and the tooth of this tooth and gear 135 is meshing with each other.
Shown in Fig. 3 C, this gear 135 is installed in the end of axle 134.In the other end of axle 134 belt wheel 136 is installed.At this belt wheel 136 and be installed in that tensioning is provided with rotating band 137 between the belt wheel 139 of axle 138 end.
By make anchor clamps 103 from state shown in Figure 2 to state-transition shown in Figure 4, stacked bank note B is pressurizeed downwards, be clipped between anchor clamps 103 and the pallet 104.There is no need stacked bank note B is applied pressure more than the enough pressure.Also be since the height of this stacked bank note B because overlapping bank note difference and can changing, so the height when there is no telling has applied enough pressure in advance.Thus, in the present embodiment, adopt if produce the above opposing of defined, then Kong Zhuan one-way clutch is as clutch coupling 144.Come reliably stacked bank note B to be applied suitable pressure with this.
As shown in Figure 4, connecting rod 133 is provided with 3 groove 133a～c, is equipped with 2 sensors 145,146 that can detect groove 133a～c.These sensors 145,146 all are optical sensors, are not only detected groove 133a～c by shading by what penetrate from light-emitting component.
Whether configured slot 133a～c and sensor 145,146 are the height that can be taken into the position that can judge anchor clamps 103, stacked bank note B.Thus, at upper end position shown in Figure 2, then each sensor 145,146 printing opacity shown in Fig. 7 A promptly, make the light of self-emission device to incide photo detector as if anchor clamps 103.If the height of stacked bank note B for being taken into, then shown in Fig. 7 B or Fig. 7 C, sensor 145 shadings promptly, make the light of self-emission device not incide photo detector.At this moment, the opposing party's sensor 146 can be any one state of shading, printing opacity.If there is not stacked bank note B, or stacked bank note B only has height slightly, then shown in Fig. 7 D, makes sensor 145 be printing opacity, and sensor 146 is shading.When being situation shown in Fig. 7 D, anchor clamps 103 are positioned at lower end position.
Fig. 5 is that explanation is arranged on the into figure of the configuration of the sensor nearby of bank note dispensing port 101.Be arranged on its nearby sensor 109～111 and any one of sensor 112 that is arranged on the back side be optical sensor.
As shown in Figure 5, stacked bank note B is laterally, promptly is inserted into across between the defeated paper guide plate 151 near width with its length direction and direction of insertion.To be inserted into in order judging whether the width (length of length direction) of the stacked bank note B of bank note dispensing port 101 is the width of normal coin, to dispose 4 sensor 109a～d side by side as sensor 109.Use these sensors 109a～d, and sensor 110 judge whether stacked bank note B is the bank note that should be taken into.The condition that is taken into that the stacked bank note B that should be taken into should satisfy, shown in Fig. 8 A, sensor 110, and sensor 109b, c detect stacked bank note B, and then any one party of sensor 109a, d detects it.When not satisfying this condition, the stacked bank note B shown in Fig. 8 B is rejected and is taken into.Fig. 8 A, and Fig. 8 B on the arrow represented, the direction of insertion of expression bank note.
Sometimes stacked bank note B is inserted into into bank note dispensing port 101 with the state of deflection.The detection of this deflection is to be object with the stacked bank note B that has satisfied the condition that is taken into only, uses sensor 109b, c to carry out.
As shown in Figure 9, deflection has taken place in the stacked bank note B that inserts as if the direction of insertion of representing with arrow, and when then sending it to inside, sensor 109b, c produce does not have the detected moment can produce deviation.When this mistiming is Δ T, and when transfer rate was V, the offset X between sensor 109b, the c shown in Figure 9 was
X＝V·ΔT
Like this, if sensor 109b, c between distance be Y, then the deflection θ that represents with angle (°) can use
θ=tan
-1(X/Y) obtain.When having only this deflection θ in allowed limits, stacked being taken into just of bank note B proceeded.
As mentioned above, the length detection of the length direction of stacked bank note B is to use sensor 109a～d to carry out.The width detection of the Width of stacked bank note B is by confirm whether the length that stacked bank note B is sent to the transmission till position to sensor 111 shadings begins to be disengaged to this shading carries out in allowed band.The height of stacked bank note B is after to anchor clamps 103 pressurization, calculates that its rotation amount that returns the necessary motor 140 of upper end position carries out.Owing to adopt stepping motor as motor 140, therefore, be applied to the number (step number) of the pulse that drives usefulness on the motor 140 as its rotation amount with counting.
At upper end position, shown in Fig. 7 A, sensor 145,146 is and sees through.Like this, by the signal of monitoring sensor 145,146 outputs, can be to stacked bank note B be begun to count to the step number that moves to the pulse that is applied to motor 140 upper end position from the position of pressurization.Thus, the height of stacked bank note B can be calculated by deducting the pairing height of this step number from the anchor clamps 103 of upper end position and the height between the pallet 104.
It is bigger that the elastic force that common bank note has is compared with its deadweight.This means that the distortion that is produced by the elastic force of bank note can not prevent by deadweight.Therefore, when singly being bank note overlapping, because of the elastic force of bank note self can cause whole height to change.Owing to can't remove the elastic force that acts on bank note at once usually, so even push the stacked bank note B that becomes higher because of elastic force, push if remove this, after this was removed, stacked bank note B can become higher.Therefore, ask for height when pushing stacked bank note B.The height of obtaining like this is to remove the elastic force that acts on bank note, to the summation of the thickness of every bank note and correct numerical value.
Like this, in the present embodiment, all during being present in receptacle 100, stacked bank note B correctly carries out at this with the mensuration of the size detection (length detection of length, width two directions) of stacked bank note B, deflection θ and height thereof.Therefore, can correctly judge unaccommodated stacked bank note B, can unaccommodated stacked bank note B be returned to client in the stage more early.Thus, improve reliability, realize higher utilization ratio.Below the action that achieves is described.

Action to above structure describes.
CPU261 on each printed circuit board (PCB) 260,360,361 controls by carrying out the program that is stored in respectively among the ROM262,362.CPU261 accepts indication from the ATM main body by communication I/F 269, carries out control to lower unit 200 according to this indication, and upper unit 300 is indicated.This indication is sent to the CPU361 of upper unit 300 by communication I/F 268,369.
The various testing results that CPU261 obtains by these sensor drive portion 264 driving sensor groups 273 from 264 acceptance of sensor drive portion at any time are at any time from communication I/F 268 or 269 Content of Communication of accepting from upper unit 300 or ATM main body.Resolve these testing results, reach Content of Communication, indicate according to the situation of solenoid-activated portion 265, direct motor drive portion 266,267 respectively.Thus, under the control of CPU261, make lower unit 200 carry out work.In addition, by communication I/F 268 or 269, the information that should notify is sent at any time.
The CPU261 of the opposing party's upper unit 300 is according to controlling upper unit 300 from the indication of lower unit 200, reaching receptacle 100.This control is the various testing results that obtained by these drive division 364 driving sensor groups 373,161 from these sensor drive portion 364 acceptance by at any time, resolve, respectively according to solenoid driver portion 367, direct motor drive portion 365, motor drive circuit 366, and the situation of discriminating portion 320 indicate.Thus, under the control of CPU361, make upper unit 300, and receptacle 100 carry out work.By I/F368 discriminating portion 320 is indicated, correspondence is notified to the information of lower unit 200 and delivers letters by communication I/F369 at any time.When the stacked bank note B that is taken into that client inserts, differentiate with deposit, when taking in bank note for such information such as Currency Type of the bank note of normal coin and deliver letters to lower unit 200.
Below, with reference to Figure 10 and process flow diagram shown in Figure 11, the action of bill handling device 1 is elaborated.This action realizes by following method: the CPU261 by lower unit 200 controls this lower unit 200, and the CPU361 of upper unit 300 controls this upper unit 300 respectively, reaches receptacle 100 under the control of this CPU261.
The mensuration of the size detection (length detection of length, width both direction) of aforesaid stacked bank note B, deflection θ and height thereof is carried out at the bank note dispensing port 101 that advances that stacked bank note B is inserted into receptacle 100.Therefore, here the action when carrying out deposit that stacked bank note B is inserted into describes.
Figure 10 is the process flow diagram that deposit is handled.This processing is by carrying out the indication that the ATM main body is done, realizing client's deposit request.At first with reference to Figure 10, processing describes to deposit.
Each one of lower unit 200 carries out work under the control of CPU261, upper unit 300, and each one of receiving portion 100 under the control of CPU371, carry out work.Therefore, here, the CPU that action object is controlled is described being conceived to.
At first, in step 101, confirm that pallet 104 whether at delivering position shown in Figure 2, if not at this delivering position, then makes it move to this position.Then, in step 102, whether judge advancing bank note dispensing port 101 to have detected and satisfy the bank note that is taken into condition (Fig. 8 A).The stacked bank note B that is inserted into bank note dispensing port 101 into as client satisfies when being taken into condition, is judged to be "Yes" and then moves to step 104.Otherwise, be judged to be "No" and then move to step 103.Satisfying this is taken into condition and means that the length of length direction of stacked bank note B is in allowed band.
The processing of above-mentioned steps 101,102 is to realize by the control from the CPU361 of the indicated upper unit 300 that is taken into stacked bank note B of the CPU261 of lower unit 200.Following step 103～118 also are same.Be arranged on the into gate nearby of bank note dispensing port 101, for example, after the processing of having carried out step 101, opened.Usually make hook 105 be in outstanding state.
In step 103, judge whether passed through official hour from beginning to detect stacked bank note B.If passed through this official hour, then be judged to be "Yes", finish a series of processing here.Otherwise, be judged to be "No", turn back to above-mentioned steps 102.Like this, to insertion through the stacked bank note B of wait till the official hour.
Though not special diagram, the stage before the "Yes" of being judged to be in this step 103, be not inserted into from the stacked bank note B of CPU361 notice CPU261, and then by CPU261 notice ATM main body.Notify by such moment, after the ATM main body makes closing gate, make the "Yes" that is judged to be in step 103.
On the other hand, in step 104, make forwarder 341 to stacked bank note B the position during to separated part 310 carrying just delivery position move, pusher 313, platform portion 312 are moved to upper end position respectively.Then, in step 105, as shown in Figure 4, driving motor 104 pressurizes by anchor clamps 103, detects the height of stacked bank note B (with reference to Fig. 7 A～D) by sensor 145,146.As the driving of the motor 140 of stepping motor be by CPU361 to the umber of pulse (step number) that direct motor drive portion 365 specifies its sense of rotation and applies, indicate this driving to be carried out.This driving also is identical to other stepping motor.
At the step 105a that next transfers to, judge that highly whether this in allowed band.When stacked bank note B was the height that can be taken into, shown in Fig. 7 A～C, because pressurization, when making anchor clamps 103 mobile downwards, sensor 145 moved to the state of shading from the state that sees through light.Therefore, when this moves when not taking place, the height of being used as stacked bank note B is judged to be "No" not in allowed band, transfer to step 108.Otherwise, be judged to be "Yes" and transfer to step 106.
In step 106, hook 105 is kept out of the way after, respectively transmission of power is given travelling belt 106,123, and pallet 104, carry out the transmission of stacked bank note B, so that detect the width of its Width.This transmission is to carry out with the maximum length that sensor 111 detects in the allowed band behind the stacked bank note B.When carrying out this transmission, in order to detect deflection, also the mistiming that in the lump sensor 109b, c is not detected stacked bank note B carries out timing and calculates deflection θ (Fig. 9).Keeping out of the way of hook 105 is by CPU361 solenoid-activated portion 367 to be indicated, and drives that this solenoid of keeping out of the way usefulness carries out.This driving also is identical to other solenoid.The timing of time for example uses the timer of being installed to carry out.The signal that actual conveying capacity is exported by the sensor 107b to scrambler 107 monitors to be confirmed.The length detection of the length direction of stacked bank note B is to carry out in above-mentioned step 102.
Step 107 after step 106 judges whether stacked bank note B normal, that is, judge the Width of stacked bank note B width, and deflection θ whether all in allowed band.When these all in allowed band the time, be judged to be "Yes" and transfer to step 110, otherwise, that is, and when the length of Width, and deflection θ at least one not in allowed band the time, be judged to be "No" and transfer to step 108.
In step 108, after making pallet 104 move to delivering position under the state that pressurizes by anchor clamps 103, remove this pressurized state.Transfer to step 109 after this releasing, wait for being pulled out of stacked bank note B.If when any one of sensor 109a～d all is in the state that does not detect stacked bank note B, think that then stacked bank note B is pulled out, notify CPU261 with this situation from CPU361, and then, finish a series of processing by after the CPU261 notice ATM main body.
Though not special diagram even waited for official hour, when stacked bank note B still is detected, has then forgotten to take out this stacked bank note B as client, be taken into inner and be accommodated in and discard case 353.Thus, to avoid making ATM become out of use state because of client forgets to withdraw cash.
The step of transferring to being judged to be "Yes" of step 107 110 is carried out for stacked bank note B being sent to the processing that is taken into of separated part 310.Be taken into processing by carrying out this, stacked bank note B is sent in the platform portion 312.Transfer to step 110a then.
, be taken into processing here, be elaborated with reference to process flow diagram shown in Figure 11 at this.Be taken into when handling coming into effect this, the end of the front face side of stacked bank note B is positioned at the back side of the position (with reference to Fig. 2) that 111 pairs of bank note of sensor detect.
At first, in step 201, make A detent 113 outstanding.Step 202 secondarily makes anchor clamps 103 move, keep out of the way to upper end position shown in Figure 2.At this moment, as mentioned above, the step number of the pulse that the signal of monitoring sensor 145,146 output, counting apply motor 140.Afterwards, transfer to step 203, ask for the amount of keeping out of the way of anchor clamps 103,, calculate the height of the stacked bank note B that is inserted by deducting the amount of keeping out of the way that this is obtained from the height between anchor clamps 103 and the pallet 104 from the step number of counting.Then, transfer to step 204.
Whether in step 204, judging has by appending the stacked bank note B that deposit is inserted into.When having inserted stacked bank note B by the client who requires to append deposit, be judged to be "Yes" and transfer to step 205, calculate the accumulated value of the height of the stacked bank note B that client inserts in present transaction.This calculating is that the height to the every stacker coin B that is calculated by the processing of steps performed 203 adds up to and carries out.Transfer to step 206 afterwards.On the other hand, when not appending when deposit, be judged to be "No" and transfer to step 207.Transferring to this step 207 is in order to confirm following matters: when the step 106 of Figure 10 is pushed stacked bank note B by anchor clamps 103, confirm whether be the height that can be taken into this stacked bank note B by the output signal of sensor 145,146.
In step 206, judge that the aggregate-value calculate is whether in allowed band.If this aggregate-value has surpassed the preset upper limit value, then be judged to be "No", finish a series of processing at this.Otherwise, be judged to be "Yes" and transfer to step 207.
Withdraw the money the preferred bank note that should return of returning once in order to prevent that client from forgetting.But, owing to there is the part that transmits with stacked bank note B, so the height of once transmissible stacked bank note B has the upper limit.Append when deposit,, consider the stacked bank note B that client has inserted, must allow the height of the stacked bank note B integral body that accumulative total calculates be no more than this upper limit in order can after appending deposit, to return.Therefore, obtain the accumulative total height of stacked bank note B integral body,, then the new stacked bank note B that inserts of client is not taken into inside if this highly surpasses the upper limit.Thus, can prevent reliably since the obstacle of this height former thereby the card coin that causes etc. in possible trouble.This upper limit also can be used as other the such reasons to a time tradable amount limited.
But, be not limited to all take out the bank note in the separated part 310.In the time can not taking out all bank note, the bank note of failing to take out remains in separated part 310.No matter whether customer requirement, all should return to client by residual bank note.When requiring to append deposit,, also return in the lump if in storage part, there is bank note to exist.
If return like this, the bank note numbers that then are taken in the upper unit 300 tail off, and the height of bank note integral body and the height of calculating in step 203 or the aggregate-value of calculating in step 205 are inconsistent.But in the present embodiment, it is all less to think that residual bank note no matter still is accommodated in the quantity of the bank note in the storage part, therefore ignores the such height that causes because of bank note or the variation of aggregate-value.
In step 207, make pallet 104 to delivering position, just move to the rear of seeing from the direction of transfer of stacked bank note B.Transfer to step 208 after moving like this and make hook 105 outstanding.Hook 105 after this solenoidal driving of keeping out of the way usefulness is finished automatically from outstanding recovering state.The outstanding of A detent 113 is to be undertaken by the solenoid that CPU361 indication solenoid-activated portion 367 drives this outstanding usefulness.
In the then step 209 of step 208, A detent 113 is kept out of the way after, the pallet 104 that makes hook 105 be in outstanding state moves to the off-position.So-called this off-position is the position of the side backmost in the movably scope of pallet 104.To the mobile of this off-position is to be undertaken by the output signal of monitoring sensor 112.
In the then step 210 of step 209, driving motor 140 carries out the pressurization that applied by anchor clamps 103.After this pressurization, to travelling belt 106,123 transmission power, and transmit stacked bank note B (S211) within a predetermined distance, after this transmits, make D detent 114 outstanding (S212).Like this, stacked bank note B is sent in the platform portion 312 of separated part 310 after, finish a series of processing.
Turn back to the later explanation of step 110a of Figure 10.
At step 110a, whether judgement will be taken into the operation of separated part 310 at stacked bank note B and finish.As mentioned above, when the aggregate-value of the height of stacked bank note B surpass last in limited time, thereby the "Yes" that is judged to be in the step 206 of Figure 11 is carried out this and is taken into.Thus, be judged to be "Yes" and transfer to step 111.Otherwise, be judged to be "No" and transfer to step 122.
In step 122, by 103 pairs of stacked bank note B pressurizations of anchor clamps.In the step of following 123, respectively transmission of power given travelling belt 106,123, reach pallet 104, move to delivering position (with reference to Fig. 2) by making pallet 104, the new stacked bank note B that inserts of client is returned.Transfer to step 119 after this return.
In step 111, make platform portion 312 drop to the lower end after, make pusher 313 drop to the position (pressing position) that can apply suitable pressure to stacked bank note B.In the step of following 112, forwarder 341 is moved to the trustship retreating position.Afterwards,, make each one 331,332 of temporary portion 330 move (S113), make 372 rotations (S114) of DC motor in order to take in the bank note that takes out from separated part 310.The pressurization of being undertaken by pusher 313 is performed such, for example, when stacked bank note B is applied suitable pressure, monitor the output of the sensor that picks up roller be used to detect assigned address, after this sensor went out to pick up roller, amount in accordance with regulations further descended.
After the rotation that makes motor 372 begins, according to the order of sequence bank note is fetched into temporary portion 330 one by one from separated part 310, finish (S115, S116) up to taking-up from the bank note of separated part 310.Thus, the bank note containing that client is inserted is in storage part or trustship portion.
The taking-up of bank note is by carrying out to connecting gear 311 transmission of power, and the destination of taking in of bank note is to decide by differentiating with the bank note of 320 pairs of taking-ups of discriminating portion.Differentiation is counted by Currency Type for the bank note of normal coin.In order in the taking-up of bank note, also to apply suitable pressure, pusher 313 is intermittently descended.
Finish if be sent to the taking-up of the bank note of separated part 310, that is, the bank note that can take out all takes out, is accommodated in temporary portion, and then being judged to be "Yes" of step 116 and transfer to step 117 stops DC motor 372.In the step of following 118, pusher 313, platform portion 312 are moved to upper end position (with reference to Fig. 2) respectively, the amount of money (deposit) of the stacked bank note B that situation of taking out being through with and client insert is notified to the CPU261 of lower unit 200.From CPU261 these information are notified to the ATM main body.The deposit of notice is equivalent to transaction content.
According to this notice, whether ATM main body inquiry client concludes the business (credit transaction), has or not and append deposit etc.And lower unit 200 is indicated according to the result of this inquiry.
In the step 1119 of following step 118, CPU261 waits for the indication from the ATM main body, judges this instruction content.When customer requirement appends deposit, when deposit is appended in the indication of ATM main body, judge this situation and return above-mentioned steps 101, the stacked bank note B of new insertion is prepared.If require to Cancel Transaction, when then bank note is returned in the indication of ATM main body, judge this situation and transfer to step 120.If require to conclude the business, when then the bank note that is taken into is taken in the indication of ATM main body, judge this situation and transfer to step 121.
In step 120, carry out to return handle the bank note that has been taken into return.When requiring to conclude the business, the bank note that has been taken into is taken in ATM main body indication, transfers to step 121, carry out in this step 121 and take in processing, with the bank note containing that will be taken in cassette 210.After having implemented these any one of processing, a series of processing finishes.
In addition, in the present embodiment, as shown in Figure 5, insert the position on the length direction of stacked bank note B of bank note dispensing port 101 by defeated paper guide plate 151 restrictions.But,, also might insert the unaccommodated stacked bank note B of size on the length direction even so defeated paper guide plate 151 is set.In other words, there is client will insert the into situation of bank note dispensing port 101 less than the stacked bank note B that puts in order in the mode that is accommodated between the guide member 151 actually.Insert so stacked bank note B and be the reason that obstacle takes place.
The generation of this obstacle can be moved defeated paper guide plate 171 by the position that the insertion to stacked bank note B limits as shown in Figure 12, further avoids reliably at this position configuration sensor 109e, 109f simultaneously.Each defeated paper guide plate 171 can be along track 172, make its direction that diminishes at interval, away from the twocouese of direction move, move in order to realize this, be arranged on travelling belt 175 transferring power between the belt wheel 173,174 from tensioning.As power source, for example, can adopt motor.
The position that makes each sensor 109e, 109f can detect stacked bank note B is as shown in FIG. 13A, to insert the before defeated paper guide plate 151 existing positions of stacked bank note B.Like this, inserted the stacked bank note B (with reference to Fig. 8) that satisfies the condition that is taken into if detect, each defeated paper guide plate 171 is moved shown in Figure 13 B like that, then for the stacked bank note B that does not make the length direction alignment in the mode between the defeated paper guide plate 171 of being accommodated in, wherein some bank note can be because elastic force and at least one side-prominent to the length direction of stacked bank note B.Thus, if any one of sensor 109e, 109f will detect stacked bank note B as being taken into the condition that stops, then can avoiding being taken into the stacked bank note B that length direction is not suitably put in order reliably.Therefore, can further avoid being taken into of inappropriate stacked bank note B reliably.
